    I'm 43 with a strong appetite for all things history (Biblical, political, religious, war, family, mostly.) I come from a military family and worked in defense. Just comes with it sadly.

    Very interesting article here: https://www.realclearworld.com/articles/2025/09/11/islam_is_weakening_in_iran_1134383.html How old are you?

    The world is a mess. Except for a couple of local news articles, I haven't watched the news in about a week, because I couldn't take the negativity anymore. Tonight I was at a relative's house watching the world news with them, and saw what was going on in Iran. I had heard things here and there and had seen things pop up in my news feed, but I didn't look into it. They were showing disturbing scenes from Iran. I googled why they were protesting in the first place, and was sad to find out that it was over inflation and a lack of food. I couldn't help but think of the truthfulness in a Bob Marley song that says: “Cost of living gets so high Rich and poor they start to cry… A hungry mob is an angry mob A hungry man is a angry man.” But more important than the words of a reggae song, Jesus said that wars and “disturbances” or uprisings will increase the closer we get to his coming during the great tribulation. Right now would be a good time to review the annual meeting talk, Be Alert, Be Decisive. It's a good reminder that these things will continue to take place up until Jehovah’s day, just like they did leading up to 70 CE. As distressing as the world situation is, it's encouraging to know we are extremely close to the realization of the millennial reign 😁 https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/VODPgmEvtAnnMtg/pub-jwb-100_2_VIDEO

    From what I remember Hitler had dreams and visions too. Definitely a pattern. Seems to be all the Nebuchadnezzar or authoritarian types. Always matching "his" personality. And Saddam had Nebuchadnezzar dreams supposedly. So yeah...
  10. tmm started following Wednesday, January 14 Give Jehovah the glory due his name.​—Ps. 96:8.
  11. jwzhang started following What's the Weather like where you live?
  12. jwzhang
    No complaints about the weather in Bangkok. It's very stable during the dry season, about 31-35° C. 88-95 ish Farenheit. However, the air quality has not been very good this week. I've been wearing a mask and we have an air purifier at home.
  13. stargazer
    The Bible also makes mention of the different 'princes' of the world. The prince of Persia, of Greece etc, which allude to the demonic forces. Saddam Hussein in one interview mentioned that just before the Gulf war of 1991, he dreamt of the prophet commanding him to invade Kuwait. It's clear that Satan has assigned his demons power and influence over the earthly governments.

    Well all things in this old world will become clear after it is all over… I am sure the angels in heaven were surprised when Adam and Eve took a detour and their fellow angel was the causative factor.. What just happened..😳.. now what are we going to do.. that one is still playing out.
  15. chuck83
    Luke 4:6 - Then the Devil said to him: “I will give you all this authority and their glory, because it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. Matthew 4:9 - And he said to him: “All these things I will give you if you fall down and do an act of worship to me.” Anyone can say what they want. This is my opinion. I'm a firm believer in those scriptures and why he's doing what he's doing. Not that Trump and Satan talked but imagine being the guy that checks all Satan's boxes by heart and action. No remorse.

    So if i doing the "I'm just burnin' doin' the neutron dance", will "I feel the earth move under my feet" due to the density of doing such a dance?
  17. jwzhang
    It's still crazy to me how Trump at his old age is doing so much... Taking action on Venezuela, Iran, Canada, Greenland, Cuba(?) All at the same time https://www.business-standard.com/world-news/us-greenland-takeover-weeks-months-trump-aide-thomas-dans-126011400110_1.html

    Well take it from me, it is very dangerous, you never know what they want nor who they are. Most of them use fake names, well someone else name, As a sister and one that has had personal experience, I wouldn't do it. AGAPE

    I was thinking the same thing. I always viewed Muslims as an impenetrable force, but now I'm wondering how many of the regular citizens will welcome the "freedom" that comes with destroying Babylon the Great.

    Moses and Aaron messed up. They didn’t give Jehovah the credit. That mattered. The miracle wasn’t the problem. The credit was. Jehovah does not share His glory. Not with leaders. Not with helpers. Not with anyone. We make the same mistake today. We say nature instead of creation. That swap is not harmless. Creation points to Someone. Nature sounds automatic. Like it just happens. That leaves out the start. The start is Jehovah. Words matter. Credit matters. Jehovah matters most. Give Him the glory. Always.

    Wednesday, January 14 Give Jehovah the glory due his name.—Ps. 96:8. What is glory? In the Bible, the word “glory” can refer to anything that makes someone impressive. Jehovah made an outstanding display of his glory shortly after the nation of Israel was delivered from slavery in Egypt. Picture the scene: Millions of Israelites assemble at the base of Mount Sinai to meet their God. A dark cloud engulfs the mountain. Suddenly, a tremendous earthquake—apparently coupled with volcanic activity—shakes the ground beneath their feet while lightning, thunder, and the deafening sound of a horn fill the air. (Ex. 19:16-18; 24:17; Ps. 68:8) Imagine how impressed those Israelites were when Jehovah revealed this powerful display of his glory. Today, we give Jehovah glory by telling others about his awesome power and his heartwarming qualities and when we give him credit for things we accomplish in his strength.—Isa. 26:12. w25.01 2 ¶2-3

    I loved so much Bro Splane biography told by him. Just turn on the audio and enjoy 😉

    Very sad that thousands have died. My personal view is that the mullahs will be overthrown and that when the time comes that Babylon the Great is destroyed, the people of Iran will, in general, be accepting of it because of what they have experienced.

      jwhess posted a post in a topic,

      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 Alter, welcome to JWTalk!
      It’s nice to have you here. I see you’re from the Lake Chapala area—beautiful place, and I imagine the scenery and weather don’t disappoint.
      You’ll find this is a friendly, encouraging forum. Many enjoy browsing the ongoing discussions or spending some quiet time in the photo gallery when they feel like reading rather than posting.
      One small note that may help: since the forum works in English, most brothers use translation software when posting. That usually makes things smoother and helps everyone follow along easily.
      Thanks for joining us, and we’re glad you’re here. Looking forward to getting to know you and seeing what you’d like to share.
