  3. Monday, February 9 She began taking of its fruit and eating it. Afterward, she also gave some to her husband when he was with her, and he began eating it.—Gen. 3:6. Jehovah had that sad account recorded for our benefit. It helps us to understand why he hates sin so much. Sin separates us from our Father, and it leads to death. (Isa. 59:2) That is why Satan, the rebel spirit who instigated all this trouble, loves sin and seeks to promote it. He might have thought that he won a great victory in Eden. But he did not understand how loving Jehovah is. God never changed his purpose for the descendants of Adam and Eve. He loves the human family, so he immediately offered hope to all. (Rom. 8:20, 21) Jehovah knew that some of those descendants would choose to love him and would seek his help in fighting against sin. And as their Father and Creator, he would give them a way to be set free from sin and draw close to him. w24.08 3 ¶3-4
  4. During a visit to the mental asylum, I asked the director, "How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalised?" "Well, said the director, we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub?" I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup. "No said the director, A normal person would...
  5. According to your own understanding should man do the dishes? Definitely not. Why?
  6. I wish we had a Restoration Clock that showed how close we are the New System. I think we are symbolically 85 seconds to sunrise...

  8. Here in our country, measles are occuring even there are efforts of vaccination. There are claims that some children died after vaccination. Heart breaking news.
  9. For those who are currently using/testing the NWS Mobile: How is your experience going? What kinds of issues have you faced? Have you implemented it for the entire share group? Any other observations please share. TYIA
  10. Yhe post yesterday goes along somewhat with Bible prophecy, but it is limited. The diseases mentioned are only in the US for now, but the prophecy is worldwide.
  11. I had a wonderful surprise this week. While some of our publishers were going over some very old photographs of our village (around WW1), they found a picture of a group of sisters advertising the PhotoDrama in our little village. We didn't get a congregation until 1970. So no one can identify these diligent sisters (and one little boy) in the photo. Photo is shown below. It is possible that the 100 year old photo is mislabeled. They could be standing in front of the sign advertising the Drama but really are part of a 4th of July demonstration or something similar. Our history is more detailed than we ever knew. Did anyone else have the Photo Drama come to be shown in their congregation territory?
  12. MAINTENANCE ijw.link is currently under maintenance. Service may be intermittent for several hours.
  13. Mustered up. That phrase matters. This wasn’t fearlessness. This wasn’t confidence born of personality or experience. This was courage scraped together while the knees were still shaking. Courage that didn’t originate in the chest, but was borrowed—drawn from Jehovah when there wasn’t enough inside to stand on. I know that feeling.
  14. Last week
  15. Sunday, February 8 We mustered up boldness by means of our God.—1 Thess. 2:2. As Jehovah’s people, we wholeheartedly support God’s Kingdom, but we often need courage to do so. (Matt. 6:33) For example, in this wicked world, we need courage to live by Jehovah’s standards and to preach the Kingdom good news. And it often takes courage to remain politically neutral in this increasingly divided system of things. (John 18:36) Many among Jehovah’s people have suffered financial loss, have been physically abused, or have been imprisoned because of refusing to participate in political or military activity. We gain strength and courage when we consider the examples of those who have courageously supported Jehovah’s rulership. Our King, Christ Jesus, firmly resisted pressure to become involved in Satan’s political system of things. (Matt. 4:8-11; John 6:14, 15) He always relied on Jehovah for strength. w24.07 3 ¶4; 4 ¶7
  16. That's actually a very creative way to use that feature. I hadn't thought of that type of use, but seems like a neat idea. My fear in our congregation is that half the friends using NWP aren't aware or don't take the initiative to click the events listed on the home page in order to see the additional details and info. Even though we dedicated a local needs part to teach the congregation about the main features of the app and how best to take advantage of them. 🤪 But at least it would be an effective way to use the app to reach the other half of the congregation, in our case anyway. 😁
  17. A wife and her husband married for over 30 years were sitting at the dinner table. Suddenly the wife looks at him and says, "Do you remember when you used to hold my hand? The husband sighs reaches out and holds her hand. She continues, do you remember when you used to kiss me on the cheek? He leans over and gives her a kiss. Then she says softly, do you remember how you used to nibble my ear? The husband stands up and starts walking away. Surprised she asks where are you going? He replies...
  18. Interesting how our illustrators prefer to drawn angels with beards, but other churches prefer angels without beards

  19. Good question. I found it. https://jwtalk.net/topic/45502-turns-out-dinosaurs-probably-didnt-look-as-frightening-as-we-thought/#comment-738916
  20. Webb's 255-hour-long observation reveals invisible dark matter in a map area containing nearly 800,000 galaxies By Chibuike Okpara, Published 02/01/2026 Using its Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope peered into a region for a total of about 255 hours. This exceptionally long observation allowed astronomers to trace dark matter by studying how its gravity distorts and influences the light from distant galaxies. As part of the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) project, Webb captured an area of the sky located in the constellation Sextans. The region measures 0.54 square degrees — that is, about two and a half times the size of a Full Moon. This expanse of sky shown in the image contains nearly 800,000 galaxies. The area is also overlaid with a map of dark matter... In this image, the dark matter is represented in blue. Brighter blue areas indicate a higher density of dark matter. While Hubble previously mapped the dark matter in this area of the sky in 2007, Webb’s map reveals new clumps of dark matter, as it contains about twice as many galaxies as Hubble’s map. Webb’s map also offers a higher resolution view.

    • 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 applied to be an Auxiliary Pioneer.  I had a wonderful meeting with two of the Elders in my congregation.   One of them , I'd never met before.  I think that they have a better idea of who I am and what I deal with every day with my mental illnesses.   Not sure if I'll be approved, but it's okay if I'm not.   I've been attending field service on Zoom on Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays.  But will be adding Tuesdays as well.   🧏‍♀️
      Have a good night everyone!!  
      STAY WARM!!
       
      STAY SAFE!!

      GM,  it's Deborah.  Please send to me your email address.  I think Sr. Bonnie, from my old cong, made the CA transcripts and I will forward to you when I get your address.   I thought I had it but cannot find it.   Not sure if she sent into one email both the AM and PM or if she sent them separate.  But I will send to you can you can decide.  Hope you are well.  We are ok  here....just cold weather.  Agape.
