  1. There were five of us at the PT and WS this morning myself included. A couple of MS and one of our finest elders.
  2. I think what dustparticle means is that the P&S that gets proclaimed isn’t going to actually bring true P&S as the slave indicates but will be as worthless as used TP.
  3. my opinion agrees with your opinion for the most part. Revelation indicates the wild beast would be hurled into the lake of fire while still alive. As the slave puts it, while still operating. The US or other countries wouldn’t be in operation if they suffered nuclear weapon impacts. It’s not to say a couple couldn’t be detonated before the end but nothing scripturally indicates mass destruction. More like pushing and shoving and land invasions.
  4. Not at all. Because if he had strangled her, nobody would guilt trip our friends for owning ropes or other items that could be used for murder.
  5. Everyone has the right to enjoy natural, free ranging GMO, steroid and hormone free meat. Even those that live in populated cities. 😋
  6. This describes our brothers and sisters in Alaska. MANY brothers here own a variety of firearms including pistols. Many sisters own them as well. Even many here who are not hunters own them. Some because they enjoy shooting sports and some because they enjoy hiking and camping and the threat of bears and angry moose is real. Especially with moose. They’re cranky animals who often don’t yield to humans when they have young ones and moose are very prolific so there’s often calves around a cow. Alaska is a safe place for us who enjoy hunting and shooting sports without being criticized. I grew up in Phoenix where most of our friends aren’t outdoors minded. I skipped my usual Friday service day in 1993 to go deer hunting just north of phoenix and a sister asked my mom if I was sick since I wasn’t out in service. My mom said no, that I went deer hunting. The sister, taken back, asked my mom if I was using a bow. Mom said no he’s using a rifle. She gasped and asked if I was still in the truth lol! It is a foreign concept to some of our friends. Even those in the USA. Granted that was almost 30 years ago but still somewhat true in some areas. Its hard to say what was going through the perpetrator’s mind and why had owned or had possession of a firearm. Did he get one specifically for this event? Did he have it prior? Did he snap recently or was this plan on the works for a while? In all reality, what’s done is done and they why may or may not become fully evident. He could have had a severe mental illness and having acute symptoms and not in a rational state of mind. Or he could have been just plain evil. In any event, we’ll be praying for our friends in CO. M
  7. Father Jehovah, it’s through the rank and merit of your son, our lord and king that we ask for your holy spirt to be with the friends and families close to your children.
  8. That’s a beautiful way to look at it. I personally don’t have the same patience. I have in the past hoped the system would go on longer in hopes that some of my family would see the light and turn to Jehovah. At some point in the last year, I have abandoned that thought process, while I continue to pray for them and where possible, preach to them, I have let them go so to speak. When the time comes, I’m content walking away from them. If they want to follow, so be it, and if Jehovah accepts that, even better. My heart is prepared to let them go today. I used to hope for no more wars too but now I fully understand that Jesus said, these must take place before the end will come. While I don’t support wars nor have good feelings about violence, I’m also relieved when they come up knowing that it’s prophecy that needs to be fulfilled and means it’s one step closer to the end. I love my family but I’m ready to continue on through the end without them. I pray for the success of the Kingdom first. I pray for family secondary. I never give up hope but don’t hold my breath either. I’m good to go and ready to leave everything and everyone not on Jehovah’s side behind. Bring it on. I don’t wish anyone to miss out on forever but prophesies say that the vast majority will. Most of my family have made it very clear that they are on the side of Babylon the Great and that we are going to burn in hell for eternity because we worship Jehovah and not their pagan trinity. As my heart is fixed on the truth, theirs is fixed on supporting our governments and our wars, pagan celebrations and doctrines. Truly the mark of the beast. Fortunately, Jehovah is much more patient than I am. His patience is perfect. Mine is not.
  9. A little boy sitting on his dad’s lap in-front of the laptop camera during his dad’s closing prayer on zoom after the WT study picking his nose and eating the boogers.
  10. 100% The Catholics know Mary to be the Queen of Heaven. They used a different name for her pre-Christian adoption but renamed her with a new Christian name. The Virgin Mary. The Queen of Heaven is Ishtar/Ashtoreth/Inanna/Astarte/Venus/Mary among many other names just in different languages and religions. Jehovah directly condemned the Israelites for making sacrificial cakes for her and pouring out drink offerings to her. She was also part of nearly every trinity until the Catholics took her out and replaced her with a dove representing Holy Spirit. The Israelites worshiped Ashtoreth, Ba’al and Tammuz. All three have been associated with various trinities throughout history and cultures. You could say even apostate Israel worshiped a triad of gods. Nothing has changed since Babylon. Different names, different cultures, same garbage worship. It’s disgusting.
  11. One of my electrical apprentice’s father was killed there. Nettleton.
  12. Last year’s calf. Gonna be sporting spikes or forks on his head this summer!
