  1. Some craft beer brewers do distill whiskey out their beer. And with great success, I’m told.
  2. It means an important voice has spoken up on our behalf. This does not mean that Russia will comply. They have a complicated relationship to the ECHR and will comply only if it does not break their own laws. They will claim that Jehovah’s witnesses are banned, even though their actions tell a different story.
  3. Fantastic. I’d say right on schedule. There will be vacations, and some thing that will take a bit longer.
  4. Starvation does not occur anywhere in the Bible. It is a severe form of hunger that we might be subjected to in certain areas. Of course, we are taught to be wise when it comes to handling food and economy, and that helps a lot. Famines occurred, and Jehovah’s servants were not immune to them. Now, will we die from starvation? We will never have to beg for food, that is true, but are we immune to the effects of food shortages, including starvation and hunger at times? No, but we cannot add a single second to our lives by being anxious about tomorrow. My point is, we might well feel the devastating effects of severe food shortages in our areas, but we can trust in Jehovah that he has not and will not forget about us. The family in this video starved from time to time: https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&wtlocale=E&lank=pub-jwbcov_201905_9_VIDEO
  5. A convention feature film takes about 5 years to make, from idea to finished product. A lot of brothers and sisters are also working on a feature film that will be shown at the same convention as the first instalment of “The Good News…” and some are at work on a film that will be shown the year after that.
  6. Are concentration camps the only exception? In fact, David himself as a fugitive lacked food at times. But he did not have to beg. That is the idea in Ps 37:25. Anxiety over these things could not extend his life, only Jehovah could, and he did. If there is famine in our area, we are not immune always. But we can still remain spiritual, happy people.
  7. Photographs are original art, even if they are not painted. However, days days we also make animated films and videos with professional special effects. Excellent teaching tools. These take time and resources to produce. We don’t expect miracles. That’s true, and we will encounter issues down the road too, so you do the math….
  8. Do you mean that Jehovah’s witnesses will never starve?
  9. This October? A film that has just barely started principal shooting? Not to mention post production, VFX, and such things?
  10. “There will be … food shortages and pestilences…” (Luke 21:11) Study note: Or “widespread diseases; epidemics.” We’ve barely come out of a major one. Bring on the next one… Now we as a global congregation have the tools to tackle them.
  11. I imagine it would have been a bit difficult to animate with the resources they had for the mockup, and also for the actual production videos back then. Nowadays, the special effects and animations the brothers can produce, are second to none.
  12. If the brothers knew, they’d tell us. Then again, I would not mind if this project had to be halted because of Armageddon.
  13. Mark 5:19. Possibly 13:20. I am sure they will take some artistic licenses when necessary, but from what I’ve understood they will follow the written texts quite strictly.
  14. No, but it will not all be talking all the time. Some scenes will also establish moods, the time, season, area, etc. The idea is to show what life might have been like when he walked the earth, and a lot of emotions.
  15. You might wish to watch this again: https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&wtlocale=E&lank=pub-jwb_202102_5_VIDEO and perhaps this: https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&wtlocale=E&lank=pub-jwb-097_7_VIDEO This will be the first major video series that will actually lead people to everlasting life.
  16. While “Pastor Lowe” stepped down at age 65 it doesn’t seem like any of the family did. Interesting. Why should they?
  17. I love how the turkish brothers came to meet them during a layover in Istanbul.
  18. The Scandinavian branch office will be glad to welcome him and his family to Denmark, I’m sure,
  19. It is not a retake, it is a mix of several photos. Also the clothes and postures don’t match.
  20. The pictures are similar, but not exactly the same. The one from the music video seems to be based on several photos.
  21. When you are asexual, you are not interested in sex at all, no matter the gender. Intersex people are individuals born with any of several sex characteristics including chromosome patterns, gonads, or genitals that, according to the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, "do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies". Previously known as hermaphrodites. So they cannot be straight, as they were born with both male and female characteristics.
  22. I wonder how many times you need to take communion to eat the entire body of Christ?
