    Friday, July 17 He does not give the spirit sparingly.—John 3:34. Jehovah loves you and wants you to be part of his family. That is true no matter what obstacles to baptism you are facing. Jesus said to a group of his first-century disciples: “If you have faith the size of a mustard grain, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” (Matt. 17:20) Those present to hear this had been with Jesus for just a few years, so their faith was still growing. But Jesus assured them that if they developed sufficient faith, Jehovah would help them to move mountainlike obstacles. And Jehovah will help you to do the same! If you recognize obstacles that prevent you from getting baptized, take steps to remove them without delay. Dedicate yourself to Jehovah and get baptized. It is the best decision you could ever make! w25.03 7 ¶18-20

    Anyone has any info on the upcoming 2027 international conventions? We should know soon since they're usually announced in September, so maybe some cities are aware if they are hosting one.

    This was along the lines I was thinking. Plus while half the world is sleeping the other half is awake. I always am fascinated by an old trailer for the original Andy Griffin show. Andy is encouraging Opie about importance of history class at school He said 'Dont you want to hear about the shot heard around the world?' not until 30 years later while I was studying with JWs did I learn the meaning of that!

    Yes - I encountered that a couple days ago. I was creating an entry in the Congregation Events section. The text block showed a small message that you could make bold or italics like this: *bold* and _italic_

    I always thought that "branch representative" meant a member of the branch committee, but apparently it's not the case? So who can be a branch representative?

      So anyone can serves in Bethel can be the branch representative at an assembly? Doesn't matter if they serve as a cook, a gardener or a hairdresser?

      Any brother who is also an appointed elder and the Branch feels he is qualified to represent the Branch can be assigned to that task - it doesn't matter what his daily tasks are at the Branch as long as he is a qualified public speaker and serving as an elder.

       

      I'm sure there are 'specific qualifications' that the Branch considers before they appoint a brother to represent the branch before they send him out to do so. I don't know what those specific things would be.

      So a branch representative is any qualified elder that serves in Bethel ?

    We are out of the 90’s temps today, but smoke haze from Canadian wildfires is hanging heavy in the air. This was the sun at 7:42 this am. It was actually much redder than what the camera showed. We are about 750 miles south /south east of the Canadian wildfires (55 mi west /northwest from Detroit) Amazing how far the smoke has traveled and how the smoke is seen in the air.

    10+ on air quality. It doesn't rate higher. Looks like fog out but it is heavy smoke at 8 am EDT Only 20 C 68 F high humidity.

    @Brandon Hello brother, I know you said you used AI. Some of the dates are still wrong, could you update them when you get the right dates? I can confirm the IC in Bangkok, Thailand will be December 11-13. Not Dec 4-6 as stated Thank you

    That may not be immediately obvious if that is a process that takes weeks or months to complete. Besides, the UN getting power is the first sign we are looking for.
  28. TLJ
    Will there be a fee then for future convention updates? also is there a trial version so I can see and test the app before dicing whether to buy it? the link above really just takes you to an FAQ type page

    Yes, that seems apparent from your post. You said: "people dissect things... They are hoping".

      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.”

      Jehovah's name is explained to Moses as meaning "I shall prove to be, what I shall prove to be". This is a reference to the fact that, whatever is his will, he can make it a reality.
       
      If that is so, why did the Septuagint, which was translated by Jews who knew the language, translate it as egō eimi ho ōn? (“I am the One who is”), which seemingly refers to God's aseity rather than having to do with his purpose?
