  1. Past hour
  2. Friday, July 3 I, Jehovah, am searching the heart . . . to give to each one according to his ways.—Jer. 17:10. In Jonah’s day, the Ninevites had an opportunity to repent. Further, remember what Jesus said about the “resurrection of judgment.” It will include “those who practiced vile things.” (John 5:29) So it seems that there may be some hope for the people of Sodom and Gomorrah too. It is possible that at least some of those people will be resurrected, and we may have the opportunity to teach them about Jehovah and Jesus Christ. Jehovah has always been the one “searching the heart, examining the innermost thoughts.” When it comes to the future resurrection, he will, as always, “give to each one according to his ways.” Jehovah will be firm when necessary but merciful whenever possible. So we should not assume that a person has no hope of a resurrection unless we know that to be the case! w24.05 5-6 ¶15-16
  3. NASA’s Webb Reveals Stars Sparking to Life in Cosmic Celebration Release date: 2 July 2026 10am: ID 2026-124 NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured the infrared light of numerous features that previously were impossible to see beyond the thick dust of the FS Tau star system. In addition to myriad background galaxies that burst into view like fireworks for the United States’ 250th anniversary celebrations, this image flickers with a number of protostars, or baby stars that are formed from dense pockets of gas and dust. These hot, clumpy, and low-mass objects eventually will become full-fledged stars capable of burning hydrogen in their cores, like our Sun. The protostars of FS Tau are about 1 to 3 million years old, which is relatively young in cosmic scales. Our Sun, by contrast, is 4.6 billion years old. Low-mass stars emit less radiation and have less energetic stellar winds than those with larger masses, which means they disrupt their environment at a much lower level. This makes the FS Tau region incredibly useful for studying low-mass star evolution without the same level of environmental interference seen near higher-mass stars. A pair of protostars that creates the largest diffraction pattern seen slightly to the left of center in the image, called FS Tau A, is about half the mass of our Sun. Article Link: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-reveals-stars-sparking-to-life-in-cosmic-celebration/ Pic Description: In infrared light, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals bright protostars in star system. FS Tau A, a pair of protostars that creates the largest diffraction pattern slightly to the left of center, is about half the mass of our Sun. FS Tau B, the orange protostar slightly right of center, is thought to be responsible for the red (molecular hydrogen) and orange (soot-like molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) outflows that we see amid the dusty region. The blue ridges are areas where light has been scattered by dust. The different colors of the background galaxies indicate how much dust is in front of them, as dust both absorbs and scatters light. Redder galaxies lie behind larger amounts of dust, yellower galaxies lie behind thinner layers of dust, and whiter galaxies are mostly unobstructed. Pic 2 [Bottom] A comparison between the observations of FS Tau by NASA’s Hubble and James Webb space telescopes. Hubble’s visible-light view shows the star-forming region mostly obscured by thick dust. Webb sees through the dust, revealing how the protostars are shaping their surroundings.

  4. Today
  5. It's in a warehouse. Being looked over by top men. Top. Men.
  6. Have you seen this article? Vatican excommunicates schismatic bishops and priests, and warns their followers https://apnews.com/article/vatican-traditionalist-pope-latin-st-pius-6570c6bcc0784f4b9229e20bdec4e5aa Our unity is definitely a miracle.
  7. Well, we could see a remake after John the Baptist is back 🤪
  8. So, what do you guys think is in store for us next? Let’s stay tuned.
  9. It's been sunny and hot these past few days. Very summery. I love it. Was outside in the humidity last night at 9 pm watching fireflies in the yard. Need to find a body of water to go swimming in soon.
  10. It makes a lot of sense, I can only imagine what they went through during that wicked regime.
  11. It archives the government persecution of this Witness family, including several executions, and now the same military that killed them is holding the records hostage. It's a double insult. The records were always intended to be given to the Society and that's where they should go.
  12. After the resurrection so the original people can recreate their roles?
  13. It's very significant because it relates to our history, and it provides evidence of JWs exceptional steadfastness in the face of fierce opposition. Moreover, it contains over 1,000 pieces. It is a gross injustice to put such a treasure in a military museum, where it only collect dust (only 6 pieces are shown out of 1000). "When she was 26 years old, Annemarie began meticulously compiling the archive of materials related to Jehovah’s Witnesses during the Holocaust. She preserved it, at times even at the risk of her life, for over 65 years until her death in 2005. What she preserved for posterity, and especially for her fellow believers, has been appreciated internationally as a historical treasure." "Among the notable documents in the archive is a farewell letter from Annemarie’s brother, Wilhelm, who wrote his last words on April 26, 1940. As one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, he refused to perform military service. For his conscientious objection, the Nazis sentenced him to death." "The archive brings to life the family’s exceptional example of faith. The materials vividly illustrate how faith can impart strength in the face of severe persecution and the threat of death. This central theme of the archive can only be fully appreciated within the museums of Jehovah’s Witnesses." https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/germany/Jehovahs-Witnesses-Launch-New-Legal-Case-in-Germany-Over-Annemarie-Kusserows-Archive/
  14. Maybe @foghorn suggestion to uncheck Show NWP Schedules would remove it from the app and not require you to delete the schedule so you can easily re-enable it in the future.
  15. Yes. Thanks. Sent from my moto g stylus 5G - 2024 using Tapatalk
  16. Interesting https://www.yahoo.com/news/science/articles/one-biggest-mysteries-cosmos-little-110000216.html
  17. Well, the Slave said their intention is to finish the Jesus drama even if it's in the new system. So, there is that...
  18. In various ways: - the amount of assets is huge - persecution is part of our cultural identity and heritage. So we ourselves want to act as a curator of those artifacts, and not depend on worldy entities to look after them for us.
  19. Im just curious,why is that archive so significant?
  20. It is my privilege to let you know that: The new language number 1126 is: Cook Islands Māori or also called Kuki Airani #rar Perhaps our friends in New Zeeland can tell us more about it
  21. It might be frustrating but have patience my brother, not so long ago we would only get an update on JW issues once a year in a yearbook

    • 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 think someone somewhere said they knew someone that makes notebooks for conventions/assemblies. I would love to support them and get a notebook for the upcoming regional. A friend of mine gave me a spare she was given for the assembly and it helped me enjoy the assembly a bit better because i had no use for my phone so i wasn't just fiddling around (I can write faster than i can type, within the first sentence i have no idea what is being said and i get lost when im typing notes)
