  1. Past hour
  2. Have you fully tested this? I had a look at your Javascript source-code, and it looks... maybe because you are not merging playlists/media files?
  3. It depends on how you are feeding the sound to Zoom from the mixer. If you are using the "monitor out" you need to make sure that all the mikes have the monitor switched on.
  4. in the sixties/seventies the issue of blood was always an objection in the uk , as we used to say "they brought up blood". Yet in the last 30 years i can think of only one occasion when someone raised the matter of blood. No doubt the infected blood scandal had some affect
  5. indeed old, but stiil correct as we have the abilty to reason while animals have no knowledge of Gods Laws. No doubt the animals in the new sytem will not be killing each other. We had c.o in the sixties who had been a vet in the second world war at a UK zoo...because of the shortgage of meat the zoo had to give the big cats a diet of vegitables. The brother said their coats were glossier etc but when the war finished the zoo felt they should go back to a meat diet which they did. But the big cats did survive during the war on a vegitable diet
  6. In my previous congregation a family had a python as a pet. Weird, but . . Anyway, this python is only going to eat a living thing; rat, hamster, guinea pig. Everyone knows about this python, but there seemed to be no problem among the friends with the diet.
  7. Today
  8. The parts of those videos we are to learn from are the flashbacks. Are we developing now those qualities and skills we will need during the great tribulation? The basement is not the point.
  9. While I don't disagree with the 1964 article I find it to be very old but I cannot find nothing newer. Animals are not under the command not to eat blood and many do so daily. The problem is not the animal eating the blood but Christians giving it to them. So it would be wrong to throw a live mouse or rat to a cat to eat because of the blood in it but not wrong for a cat to catch a mouse and eat it without human help.
  10. FBI warns Iran aspired to attack California with drones in retaliation for war: Alert https://abcnews.com/amp/US/fbi-warns-iran-aspired-attack-california-drones-retaliation/story?id=130973820 I’m 30-40 miles from the coast but I live near JPL & Caltech. We shall see how this pans out. If I see anything I’ll post it. Just because they aspired doesn’t mean they still can’t try.
  11. What would cause a mic input to put sound out to the kingdom hall, but not be able to be heard on zoom? We have the two mic for demos, labelled 2 and 3. We hear both at the hall, but on zoom #2 doesn't come through zoom so the friends only hear half the demo. Any thoughts?
  12. I was in a vets a couple of years ago and picked up a leaflet offering blood transfusion for a pet. Never heard of it before so wondered if the soc had any information on the subject . They indeed had ....circa 1964!!! https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1964127?q=blood+transfusion+for+pets&p=doc
  13. not sure where you come from but in the UK there has been a big enquiry into infected blood ....imported blood and not tested which has caused many many deaths https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infected_blood_scandal_in_the_United_Kingdom Always find it interesting in the covid years, so many in the medical world refused to take the vaccine based on the principal that they didnt want anything in their body they didnt agree with...erm ..but like us saying no to blood!
  14. Was the Flood of Noah’s Day Really Global? Our Readers Ask Was the Flood of Noah’s Day Really Global?
  15. I made a site that handles all your backup files locally so you don't have to worry about privacy issues https://jwsync.tiiny.site/
  16. A very simple reason we do not use the Gregorian Calander for Bible prophesy is that, at the time Bible prophesy was written, the Gregorian Calander did not exist. It was not used at all prior to October 1582 when it was introduced to correct the Julian calendar's 11-minute annual drift.
  17. Can I host a session for private chat not connected to the meetings like I can with Zoom? Is it free to use like Zoom?
  18. Here in Ireland you would wear a swimsuit with a Tee Shirt over it
  19. Why would God tell Noah to save the animals if it wasn't global?
  20. was the entire globe under water? was it the same way before the separation of land and water or was it regional.
  21. I started developing a video conferencing app: https://www.farcast.live would love feedback and testers.
  22. I suspected it is AI, thus my title, "If this is Real"
  23. Staying indoors can be like a basement; our salvation will depend entirely on Jehovah's power.
  24. Why do we use 360 days instead of 365 days to calculate the “seven times” that led to 1914? Because the Bible itself indicates a 360-day prophetic year. For example: Revelation 11:2, 3 says that “forty-two months” equals “1,260 days.” Revelation 12:6, 14 refers to the same period of 1,260 days as “a time, times, and half a time.” Calculation: If 1,260 days are divided by 42 months, the result is 30 days per month. So 12 months × 30 days = 360 days in a prophetic year. Another calculation: If “a time, times, and half a time” (3½ times) equals 1,260 days, then: 3.5 times = 1,260 days 1 time = 360 days Therefore: 7 times × 360 days = 2,520 days Using the day-for-a-year principle, these 2,520 days represent 2,520 years, which leads to 1914.
  25. If this system were to go on for a few more years, medicine and science may thank JW's for their tenacious trust in God. I remember a CO from at least 15 years ago say "We will be vindicated on the blood issue".

    • 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 sometimes mix-up my terminology so this is to help me:
       
      The Lord's supper is the ceremony in which Jesus and his apostles partook on Nisan 14.
       
      Jesus said to do this in remembrance of him, a remembrance of what he is about to do (give his life for mankind). So what we commemorate is the blood and flesh given in our behalf, and we reproduce this event by observing the sacrament of the Lord's supper.
       
      This death serves to enact a new covenant between the spirit-anointed sons and daughters of God, and the other sheep are respectful attendees and participants that honor that contract.
       
      In summary the Memorial (or 'eucharist', meaning 'thanksgiving' in biblical Greek) is our commemoration of the death of Jesus by observing the Lord's supper. The partaking (other denominations call it 'communion') of the emblems, the wine and bread, is done by spirit-anointed christians who are part of the new covenant.

      Our congregation is finally moving to NW Scheduler from KHS. I'm having trouble exporting publisher reports from KHS to NW Scheduler. I get log error "cannot import record. Missing Date"
      I tried changing date format to year/month/day as it is in KHS. Same thing.
      I will have to enter data manually, but if there's anyone out there that has found a fix it would be hugely appreciated.
