  1. Past hour
  2. I have the six files you see plus the KJV bible with Strong's numbers. I can give them to you but they won't load in JW Library (I tried on my new iPhone). The organization has place a key in the new jwpub files and it won't load unless you have that embedded. I can put the folder in my DropBox account and you can try but it doesn't work. If you are asking where they were invented, Br. Eryk, a member here made them.
  3. Could you do a cover and send to me as an audio file? On the other hand, I'm sure the complicated lullaby wore you out to sleep within minutes. 😳😳😳😳
  4. "Faith in Jehovah is not for spectators." True faith involves work. Abraham had faith and willingly moved his entire household to a new country. Noah had faith and constructed an ark. Esther had faith and formulated a plan to save her people. Abigail had faith and saved her household by speaking to an angry David. Our faith motivates us to participate in meetings, study the Bible regularly, and go in the ministry. It's not simply sitting in a church each Sunday and listening to a talk.
  5. Also, in terms of the founding fathers, it is interesting that Unitarians (now Unitarian Universalists) have been removed from the list ...
  6. Today
  7. While that may be so, what about their spouse?
  8. Yes. I now see my mistake. It was not labelled under "Christian". Ai helped me out. (I didn't know we have Pastafarians DownUnder.): The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster began in 2005, when Bobby Henderson, a recent physics graduate of Oregon State University, sent a letter to the Kansas Board of Education, which was debating the inclusion of intelligent design theories in high school classes on evolution Flying Spaghetti Monster, the deity of what began as a parody religion and grew to become a social movement. The adherents, who call themselves Pastafarians, purportedly number in the tens of thousands and are primarily located in North America, western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. The Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM), which is said to be invisible, is depicted as a floating mass of spaghetti noodles with a large meatball on either side of its body and two centrally located eyestalks. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Flying-Spaghetti-Monster
  9. The LDS are upset because the list doesn't designate them as Christian. As in "Christian - LDS" The Pastafarians are a satirical religion that makes fun of God and religion. I probably shouldn't have mentioned them...😖
  10. @Tortuga Are Pastafarians (whom I never met) related to a Rastafarians (I have met at the door?). [Or is Richard playing with words again... Alfredo...? hmmm]
  11. It’s a list the US military keeps in order for clergy inside the military to provide “spiritual support” to military members who want it. I really don’t see why any country’s military would want to recognize our religion in this way… it makes no sense to me. If you’re a member of the military you should definitely not be identifying as a Witness.
  12. https://jwtalk.net/topic/63339-now-approved/
  13. Pastafarians didn't make the list? Alfredo won't be happy....🤣
  14. I’m sorry, but you misunderstood the announcement. They mentioned who the target audience was—they never said who they expected or wanted it “to reach.” Social media is very much “platformed communication” — it’s like standing on a car and speaking into a megaphone. The expectation is that it will reach a broad audience. Let’s not confuse the target with all of the positive trickle down.
  15. I don't think that newspaper article - or Hegseth's announcement - means what you think it means?
  16. What is this list again? I’m out of context here 😊
  17. We don't need to be on the list ~ but we made the list! Senator Lee from Utah isn't happy that the LDS was left out of the 'Christian' section. But we are there!
  18. Thank you for this link. I wasn't aware of the history behind the vacant lot. I completely understand the Watchtower wanting to use their own personnel to improve the park per their agreement with the city. They would get far more bang for the buck. Too bad the City wouldn't agree.
  19. seems that JW are now approved by US govt as a religion https://www.aol.com/news/defense-dept-excludes-latter-day-191516886.html
  20. Visiting wondering xenophobes texted unstoppingly E M I S U

    • 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.”

      Sniff, THE turtle has turned himself into Prince Charming. Somehow the mutation has gone horribly wrong.

      My work is delayed for a week. 
      My UPS that power my entire workstation catastrophically failed, and I’ve never been scared in my life seeing it emitting lots of smoke and loud sparks. 
       
      This scares me because I was originally planning to go out of town this weekend. If I had gone, my place could have burned down. Thankfully, I decided not to leave town this weekend.

      I think someone somewhere said they knew someone that makes notebooks for conventions/assemblies. I would love to support them and get a notebook for the upcoming regional. A friend of mine gave me a spare she was given for the assembly and it helped me enjoy the assembly a bit better because i had no use for my phone so i wasn't just fiddling around (I can write faster than i can type, within the first sentence i have no idea what is being said and i get lost when im typing notes)

      There were many JW artists I followed on Instagram, they created beautiful Christian illustrations. But for some reason many deleted their accounts out of the blue, no trace left.
       
      I don't know why and it makes me very sad

      It's time for me to take a break from JWTalk for just a bit. We have our Regional Convention starting tomorrow! For those of us confined to watching the convention on a screen (rather than in person), at least they give us a choice of watching the recorded version from the US, or the live streamed version of our own convention (with the local brothers doing the parts). Because of the convention, I likely won't have time to peek in here at all.
       
      So, enjoy the weekend everyone!
