I believe that peace and security will only come when the nations hand over their power to the UN.

For me, the outcome of the election is another fulfillment of Daniel 2:33. Trump will try to rule like iron... But iron and clay do not stick together. The whole construct will become even more crumbly in the future.

I see it the same way brother Daniel. I love this thread and it doesn't distract me from preaching or personal study, on the contrary, it all fits together. Please don't stop discussing the news... it helps most of us stay focused. Sometimes I'm a little discouraged because I think it could take a long time until the end comes. But then I read your thoughts and observations here. Then I know I'm not the only one waiting for it. That helps me a lot. Thank you all❤️

I wonder what happens to the branches and those who live there... if they all have to move out and everything will be empty? Where will they go? What happens to those in need of care? Maybe we will have to invite them in our houses, then we can prove that we also apply what we have learned all these years in our literature. Exciting times are coming up

Congratulations. Obviously you did everything right in your life☺️

I don't think any of us are just sitting around and waiting for the end. Many are fighting a tough battle to survive financially at all, there is no room to plan as if Armageddon would never come. Not everyone has the opportunity to continue their education or to catch up on a degree, not to mention the fact that higher secular education is rather discouraged. And many simply cannot afford materials that are better and therefore more expensive. Times are very difficult for many of us and Armageddon is the only bright spot on the horizon. I just like Matthew 6:33. first the kingdom and Jehovah gives us what we need. Not a luxury life, but it's enough for us.

Ok that sounds reasonable. In my eyes, this quote is often used as an excuse to make a nice life in this system, so I don't like it very much. But your arguments are understandable.

That's how it is with us and that's how we raised our children. To be satisfied with the necessary, not to aspire to a career and to be diligent in service until the end. This is what we learn from the faithful slave. If I planned as if Armageddon would never come, my life would look very different.

I would be interested in what plans you have for your life if you plan as if Armageddon will never come? For me, Armageddon has always been a reality. I live as if I were waiting for the train at the station. I pass the time with goals in the service of Jehovah. I have no other plans in this world.

I‘m painting cards for letter writing in Service. Here are some of my latest:

Tonight a sister from bethel gave me the new Study Edion: These are the topics: 1. how we can deal with injustice 2. what we can learn from the last words of faithful men 3. Do you have the goal of becoming a ministerial servant? 4. Do you have the goal of becoming an elder?

This is what a Brain researcher wrote: Every new thought becomes smarter, sharper and more precise when you discuss it in detail with another person. Third parties help you find out what you haven't thought of yourself yet. It is therefore always worth having a conversation with someone you trust in order to share your thoughts. In this way, an initial idea can ultimately develop into something really great. Jehovah is very pleased about such conversations or text messages

The opening ceremony for the Olympic Games is causing a stir on social networks in Europe. Many people are outraged by the depiction of the Last Supper https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/28/sports/olympics-opening-ceremony-last-supper-paris.html

At the convention in Switzerland Brother Lett gave the closing talk. He said: Jehovah's day is certain. For this to happen, the war in the Ukraine does not have to end or there has to be peace in the Middle East, and no new president has to be elected.
