  1. Today
  2. Milk Calendar is a yearly calendar which also has recepices which obviously contain milk. Put out by Dairy Association of Canada.
  3. Here are some of my favorite images I've captured over the years.
  4. I've only been able to do letter writing for years. But I've reached a few people's hearts who have responded.
  5. Must be careful with the stocks. Much of it is scam. They can price something that doesn’t worth the value. Sooner or later, they will lower the value and force others to sale it. Who makes money off this? Wall Street. And the big scammers in Wall Street has a big hold of your retirement funds and make money off this too. It is a dirty system. Just like 1929, when it falls, the big scammers will kill themselves.
  6. I think everyone has 10 minutes to edit a post. After that you can ask a Moderator to make an edit.
  7. I’m not sure how to edit or delete a post, maybe because of being a limited access user? I typed out my reply based on where the Notification link took me and it didn’t show me the last page of replies which had already answered the questions I answered. 😬 Better late than never.
  8. A brief explanation of the REIA method is explained in the Ministry School textbook: Preparing Discourses for the Public, subheading: Use of Scriptures DBR = Daily Bible Reading.
  9. It's HOT HOT HTO _ DownUnder today! https://www.weatherzone.com.au/news/australia-day-forecasts-for-the-capital-cities/1891158
  10. AI: The bond market involves trading debt securities, where investors lend money to governments or corporations in exchange for regular interest payments, while the stock market involves buying and selling ownership shares in companies.
  11. Ok... Bond market is the government stocks, isnt it? Stock market is from private companies They're all related in the finance industry.
  12. Here's a little history for you from 1929 in about 200 pages. This is where our modern financial system was developed and took its tumble, leading to the Great Depression. The author was a well respected economist of the time, if you had heard of him. He also wrote the book "The Age of Uncertainty" which led to a BBC series in the 70s of the same name. Excellent series! Perfect for explaining the Last Days and its uniqueness in our time (generation). https://ia801201.us.archive.org/0/items/greatcrash19290000unse/greatcrash19290000unse.pdf
  13. The stock market is up and down in the last days. It was down during covid. Or maybe its really down because we have inflation now.
  14. The comments in this portion are very comforting for those of us who aren’t able to participate in the door-to-door ministry right now. That has been my situation for about four and a half years, and this reminder means a lot. It reassures us that enthusiasm for the preaching work doesn’t disappear just because its form changes. For those of us in this situation, there’s also a quiet privilege involved. We’re able to reach people in ways—and sometimes places—that others may never have the opportunity to reach. The work is still very real, and the joy that comes from doing what we can is real too.
  15. 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!!

  16. Yesterday
  17. I like the design ! What was the prompt and model used for this?
  18. Saturday, January 24 Pay constant attention to yourself and to your teaching.—1 Tim. 4:16. We can increase our enthusiasm for the preaching work by focusing on our love for Jehovah and for our neighbor. (Matt. 22:37-39) Just imagine how happy Jehovah is when he sees us do the work and how happy people will be when they start studying the Bible! Think, too, about the salvation that awaits those who respond to our message. (John 6:40) Are you confined to your home for some reason? If so, focus on what you can do to show love for Jehovah and for your neighbor. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Samuel and Dania were confined to their home. Throughout that difficult time, they regularly did telephone witnessing, wrote letters, and conducted Bible studies over Zoom. Samuel and Dania’s circumstances limited their activity, but they did what they could and found joy in doing so. w24.04 18 ¶15-16

    • 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.”

      A little boy wants to make his father happy. He wants to buy him a gift, but he doesn’t have any money. So he turns to his father and asks him for a few coins. Now he has money, but the gift he wants to get is in a store, and the store is in town. Again, he needs the help of his father. Once in the store, he finds that the gift is way up on the shelf. The father has to lift him up. Same thing at the register. Having returned back home, the son, beaming and proud, hands the father his gift.

      A sweet little story but strictly speaking one could argue that the father himself was the generous giver here. In the end, he had to accompany and help his son at every step of the way, and he was even the one paying for it all. 

      If, however, the father had done everything himself, the outcome wouldn’t have been the same. In the way that it happened, the father, in fact, made it possible for the son to be something he could not have become on his own: a gift-giver.

      This story illustrates how God relates to us. God does not need man, but God allows man to share in his saving work. Man is given the grace to take part in God’s work, and this actually shows the true greatness of God. Man is not kept in a completely inactive dependency, but rather he is equipped with the power to do good.
      And this is exactly the reason there is a congregation. God does not need the congregation, but he wants the congregation so that through her we can become active sharers in the divine work of salvation. 
      In this way, man, who through sin causes so much woe and pain in the world, is now enabled and empowered to bring healing and share in God’s redemptive work. Fallen man, in a way, is rehabilitated in the congregation. He can live as a new creation.

      So God doesn’t need the congregation, but we need the congregation, and that is exactly why she was given to us as a means to salvation!

      Hi Alexandre, welcome to JWTalk!
      Seeing Ukraine on your profile made me smile — there’s a lot of strength and beauty tied to that part of the world. You might enjoy browsing the Photo Gallery, especially the nature shots people share, and there’s also plenty of room here to just read quietly without any pressure to jump in right away. Thanks for joining us, and I’m looking forward to whatever you feel like sharing in time.
