  1. Today
  2. Forget interpretive eating noisy dishes. GOFOR
  3. Please explain. There has been a strong rebound following Covid. Here's a chart for Zambia (previously known as Northern Rhodesia up to 1964) from 1945 through to 2025. Notable that Zambia passed the quarter million mark in 2025, with an amazing publisher-to-population ratio of 1-to-84 😮 (Note: Av Pub numbers for 2017 and 2018 not available)
  4. Speaking of that… Why has the number of publishers in Zambia decreased so much in the last few years?
  5. The dates are not on there, only the month. Hence my post 😁
  6. Ho, nice, how did you have it look in depth into our websites ? using this https://wol.jw.org/ as a source link doesn't quite deep enough
  7. It’s 64f this morning but the air quality has gone from Dangerous to Hazardous! I can smell the smoke in my house. Have had to use my emergency rescue inhaler this morning. (I do have asthma). 😷😷😷 service is zoom only this morning🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Be safe my family.
  8. and now report from soc https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/germany/New-Memorial-in-Berlin-Honors-the-Courage-of-Jehovahs-Witnesses-Under-the-Nazi-Regime/
  9. Hello. Convention in Hamburg is on August 14-16, 2026, not July. You made my heart skip a beat 😄 For a moment, I thought I'd missed the convention I was supposed to attend.. If you want to check the correct dates, it's best to check on jwevent.org ☺️
  10. I actually programmed a Gemini AI notebook to respond to my questions only by sighting from wol.jw.org allowing me to basically give it random bits of questions and it will find me the exact verse or paragraph in a washer tower or some obscure reference I'm looking for. It's quite helpful
  11. Still having a heat wave in NY. Our midweekwk,mtg was on zoom due to the amnt of haze arnnd from wildfires, (Canada?) is what news reports.
  12. Yesterday
  13. I have added support for Cebuano, Estonian, Haitian Creole, Hungarian, Romanian, and Tagalog
  14. Friday, July 17 He does not give the spirit sparingly.—John 3:34. Jehovah loves you and wants you to be part of his family. That is true no matter what obstacles to baptism you are facing. Jesus said to a group of his first-century disciples: “If you have faith the size of a mustard grain, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” (Matt. 17:20) Those present to hear this had been with Jesus for just a few years, so their faith was still growing. But Jesus assured them that if they developed sufficient faith, Jehovah would help them to move mountainlike obstacles. And Jehovah will help you to do the same! If you recognize obstacles that prevent you from getting baptized, take steps to remove them without delay. Dedicate yourself to Jehovah and get baptized. It is the best decision you could ever make! w25.03 7 ¶18-20
  15. Extreme is when you're not sure if you're supposed to knock at the front door or the back.
  16. We can’t edit old messages, but feel free to copy the text, correct it, and paste it back for us!
  17. Anyone has any info on the upcoming 2027 international conventions? We should know soon since they're usually announced in September, so maybe some cities are aware if they are hosting one.
  18. Mövenpick Hotel Sukhumvit 15 Bangkok, ”Association of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Thailand” for 2026 International Conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses during December 6-16, 2026 https://www.movenpickbangkoksukhumvit15.com/corporate-promotion/2026-international-conventions-of-jehovahs-witnesses-during-december-6-16-2026/
  19. Thank you for your suggestion, @Hava Saber ! Other languages can be added if/when they are useful.
  20. This was along the lines I was thinking. Plus while half the world is sleeping the other half is awake. I always am fascinated by an old trailer for the original Andy Griffin show. Andy is encouraging Opie about importance of history class at school He said 'Dont you want to hear about the shot heard around the world?' not until 30 years later while I was studying with JWs did I learn the meaning of that!

    • Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”

      I always thought that "branch representative" meant a member of the branch committee, but apparently it's not the case? So who can be a branch representative?

      Jehovah's name is explained to Moses as meaning "I shall prove to be, what I shall prove to be". This is a reference to the fact that, whatever is his will, he can make it a reality.
       
      If that is so, why did the Septuagint, which was translated by Jews who knew the language, translate it as egō eimi ho ōn? (“I am the One who is”), which seemingly refers to God's aseity rather than having to do with his purpose?
