We have some from the Cong currently filming on set. They are now filming Episode 11. It means the schedule is tracking well. What I didn't think through though, is they are now filming the final days of Jesus earthly ministry. I guess it makes sense. The book of John for example, the first half of the writings (up to chapter 11), gets us to Nisan 10. The final 10 chapters cover the last few days. I have heard a whisper that the computer (Ai) and the monster screen will play a big part of the upcoming filming. 📽️17 points

I will let you brothers decide the final call. If the reason isn't sufficient enough, then it can be merge and it will be on everyone's discretion talking about it knowing the public can see all our discussion. I just found it not ideal to have the public whom we don't know seeing our discussion especially on these kinds of topic and I think I am also overprotective nowadays probably because of the upcoming annual meeting too. hahahaha. But regardless, I would respect the brothers' decision.13 points

The September broadcast is back and will be available in the public areas of the site within the next several hours. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the discussion and also this topic is in a public section where outsiders who are not members of JWTalk can view the discussion, and where artificial intelligence systems may also be able to access, process, or reproduce information from it out of context, I cannot provide details about what has changed. I would also encourage everyone not to mention any details until this topic has been moved to a private section of JWTalk. If one of the brothers who manages the site could move this topic to a private section, that would be ideal before we discuss the changes in more detail. (Calling our rescuers @Qapla, @Dages, etc. ) This is simply out of an abundance of caution, particularly regarding outsiders who may look for information that could be taken out of context or used to create unnecessary controversy.13 points

So true. My entire being longs for the day when we finally wake up to a morning of pure worship instead of demonic false religions, sanity instead of insanity, justice instead of corruption, peace instead of constant fighting and wars and real love instead of suspicion and prejudice. These very last days are taking a heavy toll on us. Hang on dear friends.9 points

Monday, October 5 Jehovah is the examiner of hearts.—Prov. 17:3. Gomer, the wife of the prophet Hosea, left Hosea for other men. Was she beyond help? Jehovah, who can read hearts, told Hosea: “Go once again, love the woman who is loved by another man and is committing adultery, just as Jehovah loves the people of Israel while they turn to other gods.” (Hos. 3:1; Prov. 16:2) Note that Hosea’s wife was still involved in a course of serious sin. Yet, Jehovah told Hosea to reach out to her and offer forgiveness and reconciliation. Similarly, Jehovah had not given up on his obstinate people. Even though they were caught up in terrible sins, he still loved them and continued to reach out and help them to repent and change their ways. This example suggests that Jehovah, “the examiner of hearts,” will reach out to an individual who is still involved in serious sin and try to lead that one to repentance. w24.08 10 ¶78 points

A brother once said, “If you live on planet Earth, you live in a bad neighborhood.” These days, it feels like the whole neighborhood has gone up in flames. It really makes you think about how close we are to the end of this system and how important it is to stay spiritually awake. I love seeing how all of you are doing that!8 points

I wonder if at some point the annual meeting program is released separately from a broadcasting. Same with Gilead. And that there will be all 12 monthly broadcasts with 'ordinary' programs. And that the annual meeting parts + Gilead programme parts are shown instead of a public talk on Sundays (in parts). As soon as possible after annual/Gilead. Poor translators ❤️ If not instead of public talks, then when? As a third, voluntary part after the WT some Sundays in late October/November? I am allowed to dream ... I may post this in the annual meeting thread.7 points

Today is October 1, and as usual, the Broadcasting is expected to be released on the first Monday of the month. Of course, the Annual Meeting will be the main highlight this month. But it makes you wonder: what can we expect from the October Broadcasting? Could there be some exciting news or perhaps a surprise?6 points

Everything we love...everything we cherish...everything we simply CANNOT live without...all of that was HIS...before it was ever ours. Of course this isn't new information...we've understood this, instinctively, since the very first time we absolutely knew there WAS a God. But maybe...just maybe...you haven't REALLY thought about what that means in quite a while. Maybe Satan's world has gotten in the way, maybe your aches and pains have stacked up so high you feel buried under the weight...maybe you just feel like you want it all to end...like another single BREATH is simply too painful to endure. We KNOW we're not alone in these thoughts, these feelings. We're told to endure...to stay focused on Jehovah and the new system...on our brothers and sisters who are struggling right beside us. We KNOW that's the right thing to do, we KNOW it's the smart move to make...and yet, we just want to give up...to close out eyes, unclench our fists and just...LET GO! How much easier that would be...how much relief would flood through our bodies...to finally be at peace...to finally have a place to rest...a place where Jehovah can just come get us whenever he's ready. And yet...and yet we recognize that's not the reality...we UNDERSTAND that we have to keep fighting...we must KEEP squaring up our shoulders each morning and facing down a world that hates us....millions of unfaithful spirit creatures who are CRAVING to get at us....to reduce us to a quivering pile of tears...and our own imperfections which hover us like a cloud of blood hungry mosquitoes. *Sigh*...okay, here we go: Jeremiah 45:1-5: "This is the word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Barʹuch the son of Ne·riʹah when he wrote in a book these words dictated by Jeremiah in the fourth year of Je·hoiʹa·kim son of Jo·siʹah, the king of Judah: 2 “This is what Jehovah the God of Israel says concerning you, Barʹuch, 3 ‘You have said: “Woe to me, for Jehovah has added grief to my pain! I am weary from my groaning, and I have found no resting-place.”’ 4 “You should say to him, ‘This is what Jehovah says: “Look! What I have built up I am tearing down, and what I have planted I am uprooting—the entire land. 5 But you are seeking great things for yourself. Stop seeking such things.”’ “‘For I am about to bring a calamity on all flesh,’ declares Jehovah, ‘and wherever you may go, I will grant you your life as a spoil." Yes...we all KNOW this account...we've studied it many many times. Yes, we all KNOW Baruch was seeking greater things...the Watchtower even brings out that with his upbringing and status...it couldn't have been easy for him to listen to all of Jeremiah's denunciation messages. But after the brothers told us to start looking for what we could learn about JEHOVAH in the accounts as we read them, I went back and took another look at this account. Do you see it? Verse 3: FOUR TIMES Baruch speaks about HIS pain...HIS woe's...HIS groaning...HIS lack of a resting place. Can I really blame him?? His whole world was falling apart...everything that felt familiar was being threatened...his entire future was uncertain...up in the air. We don't KNOW what those greater things were that he was seeking, but we do know from his own words that he was looking for a RESTING PLACE. But now...what does Jehovah do? Does he tell Baruch that his pain doesn't matter...that he needs to "be stronger"? No...LOOK at what Jehovah SAYS: "You should say to him, ‘This is what Jehovah says: “Look! What I have built up I am tearing down, and what I have planted I am uprooting—the entire land." How amazing is that?? Jehovah readjusts his vision by reminding him that it was JEHOVAH who had planted all this...it was JEHOVAH who had built everything around Baruch that he loved, that he cherished...that he was going to be losing. Suddenly Baruch isn't alone anymore...now Jehovah is right there...standing next to this distraught man...REMINDING him that BEFORE Baruch ever loved any of it...Jehovah loved ALL of it. Now to all my dear brothers and sisters out there hurting...out there barely hanging on...please understand that before you lost that person in your life who chose Satan's world over Jehovah's...Jehovah loved them before you did. Before you lost that person in death...Jehovah's love was already wrapped around them...and it still is. That body that's literally wearing out underneath you...Jehovah DESIGNED you to love forever. The cruelty we see everywhere we look...Jehovah despised it long before we ever existed. That brother or sister you're currently watching struggle in YOUR hall? Jehovah saw the tears pouring out of their hearts long before you ever saw their red eyes. And to those of you who feel so worn out that you just want to give in and give up...please look at what Jehovah told Baruch in verse 5. No, not the part about him seeking greater things...I'm talking about the part we often overlook: "For I am about to bring a calamity on all flesh,’ declares Jehovah, ‘and wherever you may go, I will grant you your life as a spoil." Notice that? Baruch wanted a "resting place"...the man was worn out...exhausted...emotionally spent. Of course Jehovah knew that...he knew that better than Baruch himself. But did Jehovah give Baruch what he wanted? No...he gave the man exactly what he NEEDED! Not just his life...don't just concentrate on that part! Look at what he said directly before that: WHEREVER YOU MAY GO!! Friends...Jehovah couldn't offer Baruch what he WANTED...so he gave Baruch a kind of security the man didn't even know he should ask for...it's like he said, don't WORRY about where you physically end up...because there's no place on earth where my promise cannot reach you! And that's how I'm going to end this post...for everyone who's hurting...in whichever way that's manifesting itself in your life...just know that before you ever loved or lost any of it...Jehovah loved it first...and he is aching to give it back.6 points

Inspired by a post titled “How do you visualize the New World?”, I thought it would be wonderful to take this idea a step further! What would Paradise look like through your eyes! Use your creativity to imagine being there yourself—meeting resurrected ones, working and learning together, enjoying beautiful surroundings, exploring the earth, caring for animals, or simply experiencing the peace and happiness of the New World. With Gemini or ChatGPT, you can turn your imagination into pictures or videos and share them with everyone! gemini_generated_video_62250bcc.mp46 points

Tomorrow is the release! My guess for the host is Jody Jedele. He’s already on a roll as the chairman for both Gilead and the AM, maybe he'll host the October broadcast, too.6 points

Yesterday, 1 October 2026, the Cologne Higher Regional Court (OLG) made it clear that it concurs with the Federal Court of Justice’s view that there is no doubt that Sister Annemarie Kusserow was the sole owner of the archive and that the Watchtower Society is the rightful heir. The court made it clear that the museum should have verified more thoroughly who owned the archive before purchasing this unique collection. Therefore, the acquisition cannot have been lawful. The court has not yet issued a ruling, but has made it clear that it views the legal issues in our favor. The ruling is scheduled to be announced on November 19, 2026.6 points

Hasn’t there been more and more right wing extremism in quite a number of western countries the last few years? There was recently news about Germany as well. Comparing them to ideology from the Nazi era. Lots of talk about “protecting culture”, kind of a white man supremacy going on. Horrific sex scandals everywhere you turn. It really feels like living in the twilight zone sometimes. I also have wondered at the irony of religion seeming to be on the rise. And it feels we have a few Nebuchadnezzar’s around too….6 points

It really makes me appreciate the new understanding of how Jehovah will initiate world events. If we saw a ultra religious politician in office, we might think Jehovahs Day was delayed and be discouraged, but now we understand that it doesn't matter...6 points

Hegseth wrote a book about how the path to restoring American greatness is "faith-based warrior ethos" leading to a "new American Crusade." So he needs a more direct injection of "Christian principles" to achieve this Crusade. I'm not sure if he thinks manifest destiny was an American Crusade or not. It's basically colonialism wearing a Scooby Doo monster mask.6 points

There are elections going on here in Brazil, and it’s honestly so exhausting. The power struggles, the attacks, and the constant accusations back and forth create such a horrible atmosphere. It’s really draining. I truly look forward to the end of this terrible system and to the day when the Kingdom I’ve been waiting for finally comes.6 points
