  1. Past hour
  2. Not exactly sure, but usually related to digital signatures being retired by MS. I noticed that one of catalog files is a .sig file, that was moved from folder ..\Production down into ..\Production\Pending sub-folder. Possibly after a catalog update. I currently have this version. The .sig file is dated early today while the other catalog files change every time I open JW Library. When a fresh copy of JW Library was not updating, a couple of catalog files where missing.
  3. Sunday, October 11 Husbands, keep on loving your wives.—Col. 3:19. Jehovah hates anyone who is violent. (Ps. 11:5) He specifically condemns husbands who abuse their wife. (Mal. 2:16) If a husband does not treat his wife well, his relationship with God will be affected. Jehovah may not even listen to his prayers. (1 Pet. 3:7) Some husbands abuse their wife with angry words and hurtful speech. But Jehovah hates “anger, wrath, screaming, and abusive speech.” (Eph. 4:31, 32) A husband who speaks harshly to his wife damages not only his marriage but also his friendship with God. (Jas. 1:26) The same can be said of a husband who views pornography. He too damages his relationship with Jehovah. He also degrades his wife. Jehovah expects a husband to remain loyal to his wife not only in actions but also in thoughts. Jesus said that a man who looks at another woman in a passionate way has already committed adultery “in his heart.”—Matt. 5:28, 29. w25.01 9 ¶6-8
  4. Today
  5. Are we following Jehovah because we want a supportive community? Are we following Jehovah because we want prominence? Are we following Jehovah because it's convenient? Are we following Jehovah because He is the Sovereign?
  6. Oh casseroles. That's a good idea. I haven't made one in years!
  7. Picky eaters ... should grow up In case of allergies, that's another thing. Ask if there is something they don't eat? Make a casserole the day before?
  8. Thank you. I am new and does not have the overall view. I already placed it in this forum. But the book is the result of meditation and research. So I thought it would also be nice for a forum with research. No problem. Thank you.
  9. My sister and I are so excited! We put down Spain, Denver, and Peru as our top choices. It would be our first international convention. Honestly, I'm looking forward to it so much, but at the same time, I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high because we're young, and I've noticed they usually give preference to older brothers and sisters. So if the notice arrives in November, I think I’d burst into tears of joy! 🥹
  10. This is an opinion based on conscience. Someone else may not consider execution an act of violence. On the other hand, some might consider it state-sanctioned murder. Bottom line is it is not appropriate for a Christian to make a blanket statement that something is not appropriate for a Christian if there is no clear scripture command. As we are learning these past couple of years, Jehovah expects us to stand on our own and apply our God-given reasoning ability in applying Bible principles to reach conclusions for which there are no direct scriptural guidelines.
  11. What are your suggestions for meals when providing hospitality? I figure it would be convenient if it's something pre-made the day before that can just be heated up in the oven or on the stove. Or do you have suggestions for something that can be made quickly on the spot? Something that even more picky eaters will enjoy? The friends here don't really want to hang out for a long time. That's why everyone just takes them to a restaurant that's around the corner from the hall. But not many want to provide hospitality, so it starts adding up for the few that do. Especially if you yourself are a family of 5.
  12. Dear brothers. How do you Develop an outline? Give an example on Outline Numbers 88. Please I will be happy if you share tips and tricks of the preparation. 

  13. I agree. Christians hate violence. Any execution is a violent act. Why watch what Jehovah hates? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Ooo, thank you. I missed that one. Ill give that a try. out of curiosity, is it a function of Defender, or Windows itself? If it's windows, is it something that we can shut off either in services or by using a tweaker?
  15. Thank you for your contribution to these works. There are a few others who have done similar. If we start getting posts about the various topics in the book we can pin this like we have the others here
  16. Romans 13:4 Who's LBJ? Lyndon B Johnson?
  17. As the application due day has passed, are all who have applied for one of the intl’ conventions getting excited?
  18. Wow!!! Very Touching. Thank you very much.
  19. Me Smiling like a baby watching this... Thanks for sharing
  20. Of course Brother.. You're very kind... I'm sorry for the delay. Thank you.
  21. I don't think watching such medieval-era act of violence would be appropiate for a christian.
  22. Those of us old enough to remember LBJ can remember his strong personality and how the Vietnam war ruined his political career. I have seen a lot of people comparing LBJ and Trump.
  23. I’m glad the woman received the help she needed! It reminded me of this case, where our brothers helped this man escape slave labor in Japan (the video is in Portuguese, but you can turn on translated subtitles).

    • 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.”

      Does anyone have a list of the first 24 songs from the organization? I promise im not gonna memorize them and randomly sing them to a coworker to being her back to her childhood 😏. I think at one point the song numbers changed, she told me about how she used to have to play ‘we are Jehovah’s witnesses’  (song 63) on the piano but left the organization when there were 24 songs. 
       
      side note i got her to agree to go to the memorial next year but the exchange was id have to go to her church once. I feel that is a fair trade.

      Last Tuesday i finally got to meet the people at my new congregation, and they were pretty warm and welcoming to me. It reminded me of how great is the unity that exists in this wonderful brotherhood.

      My wife recently had major surgery and the hospital has a home care nurse check on her once a week. We have had three different nurses and my wife has given each of them a contact card. 😁

      Today was a lovely text, considering recent events. We need to remember that Jehovah is in control, not focus on the imperfections of any brothers who gave direction, and remember that in due time, if anything needs to be corrected, Jehovah will take care of it.
