  1. Past hour
  2. El Niño at +2.54C, We may be seeing this event go into 2028 as well.
  3. Today
  4. It's also reassuring, I was jealous of such hairline as Bro "Jesus" is a bit older than me...
  5. Yes, but I didn't have anything to write on so I'll look at the info board on Sunday.
  6. David, I've been doing some research for personal study and have been looking into the Proclaimers book, WOW, so much I didn't remember. I need to keep reading, I feel left out of the loop 😆
  7. Wow, how much more can this old world take? https://www.cbsnews.com/news/danube-river-wwii-shipwrecks-mammoth-bones/ At the meeting tonight the announcements were for the special talks, CA, CO visits, etc for 2027, 2028, 2029! Wait, Wha??? Oh come on, won't we be in the NS by then??? 😒
  8. Of course on the real Jesus, his perfect head of hair would be magnificent, without a doubt! 💥
  9. Yesterday
  10. Jehovah’s Witnesses in God’s Purpose is 1959, iirc And Proclaimers' book is 1993
  11. Concur, I will, as I find your statement accurate and logical.
  12. Wednesday, August 5 Stand firm . . . with the belt of truth fastened around your waist.—Eph. 6:14. Jehovah’s people love the truth found in God’s Word. We have built our faith on it. (Rom. 10:17) We have come to believe that Jehovah set up the Christian congregation as “a pillar and support of the truth.” (1 Tim. 3:15) Satan would like nothing better than to cause us to lose confidence in the Bible or in the direction we receive from God’s organization. (Eph. 4:14) Soon the Devil will use powerful propaganda to mislead entire nations into taking sides against Jehovah. (Rev. 16:13, 14) We can also expect Satan to intensify his efforts to mislead Jehovah’s people. (Rev. 12:9) Consequently, it is important that we train ourselves to see the difference between truth and falsehood and to be obedient to the truth. (Rom. 6:17; 1 Pet. 1:22) Our survival during the great tribulation will depend on it! w24.07 8 ¶1-3
  13. Besides that being a positive view of the resurrection, she can change it, the FSGO can change it, the Service Committee can change it and any other elder with editing rights to the Publisher Records can change it.
  14. Life as we know it today is in for a dramatic change and for me this can’t come soon enough and I’m sure many others will concur.
  15. Suggestion: Recently a publisher, a husband, passed away. The Secretary deleted the person from the congregation. However, the deceased person was still listed as the primary emergency contact for the wife(widow). Could the data be removed from the emergency contact when a member is deleted?
  16. Parameters for an M-class planet include a breathable atmosphere, abundant liquid water, moderate temperatures, and the ability to support humanoid life.
  17. Effectively engaging in on-line games such as this one sometimes requires us go to the very first post in the thread to read just what the game has as to the parameters.
  18. I wouldn't watch either movie (Odyssey nor Black Panther) due to the violence and the spirtism involved... I guess I have become more sensitive as I mature in the truth. A few years back I probably would have... until I saw the violence, then that would have put me off.
  19. It’s not so much that I see it as a guaranteed issue, but when it is dismissed as not even a possibility, I feel the need to be a bit more expressive just to make the point clear. It's already a habit of humanity to give undue attention to people, as the GB has counseled us for, so I truly hope he isn’t stumbled by it - and I’ll leave it at that.
  20. Hear, hear! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I pity the poor folks that at least nine million people want to interrogate. 😪😬 I hope they can do a couple of interviews and then be left alone to live their lives in peace. Being able to eat meat is 1,000% more important. 🥩🍖🍗🥓🥓🍔
  21. Relax 😊 First, it won’t be as much of a problem for brother portraying Jezus as it would be for real Noah, Abraham, David or Moses. Second, I’m much more concerned about meat in paradise than mistaking Jesus with an actor playing him. I mean eating meat or not by the resurrected is going to be a concern for 100% people, seeing an actor for 0.01 or less %
  22. Yeah, no - I don't see it happening at all. Never crossed my mind 'til it was mentioned here. The brother is just a regular guy... how/ why would he be anywhere to even get such attention in Paradise? There won't be a red carpet movie premiere about it. His biggest struggles are likely current Regional Conventions, etc. He probably shaves between shooting schedules... On the bizarre off chance a resurrected person literally runs into Aussie Jesus on a random street in the New World, actually recognizes him in his normal dress and grooming (not his Jesus costume), disregards what he learned about how movies work, and threw himself down in an act of worship, AJ could easily say, "Be careful! Do not do that! I am only a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing concerning Jesus. Worship God!" Rev. 19:10 No problem 🤷🏽‍♀️
  23. And they'll never make a mistake ever? A huge chunk of humanity worshiped chunks of wood. Catholics are notorious for graven images. You can't imagine someone seeing a poster of the Drama indicating he is Jesus before they've been given the speech that he's just an actor? You can't imagine anyone getting swept away when they unexpectedly run into him, forgetting for just a moment that he's "just an actor" and bowing out of respect? You can't imagine someone like Atxi from an ancient Aztec tribe not easily understanding the concept of movies and needing to be told several times that this is not the man who performed miracles, he's just an actor and those were "special effects", not real miracles? Even if it only happened a few times a year, that could be a major stumbling block for his humility. The perspective I'm concerned about is his, not ours. See my comment above. Since almost everyone who saw him will either be in heaven or never resurrected, that couldn't be less relevant to my point. He is playing Jesus in a long Drama series - that is the only reason someone would mistake him for the real thing and the GB have already said it will be used to teach the masses of resurrected ones. EVERYONE will see his face. I am flummoxed. We have already been counseled about creature worship now, especially connected to actors in dramas - to not harass them for pictures and whatnot - but no one can see that this will be amplified when the resurrections happen? I don't get it.
  24. Everyway and every day I try to use my little grey cells effectively

    • 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.”
