It’s true my brother. The sufferings are increasing and magnified each day among the friends I know. I feel like the start of the GT will be a relief because at least we’ll know for sure the time is super short until A day.

Good news! It was announced today, that photos can now be taken in the "RVT areas" at the Australasia Branch. So we might start seeing some shots from the backlot and actual props come through. (Previously, we were instructed to put the cameras away at these locations.) 📸 Now I'll have to go again. Then I can get some photos of where I have been. So far, I was only allowed to collect memories! Lol

I have to say, it wont hurt my feelings. When this is discussed to any depth, i start with the tears. But, whatever. We can trust jehovahʼs organization to handle it in the best way possible. We still have to somehow suffer through John the Baptist, and his untimely end. i canʼt fathom it. We know Jesus was and is real, but, he is so much more real, now. Somehow, we shall. But with what we have been given so far, i know it will be handled in the most discreet way possible. Jehovah will not give us more then we can bear. This I know. (Now we can read the gospels, and really picture whaŕt we are reading.)

A young man was going door to door in a very affluent neighborhood looking for work. A man said he could paint the porch and everything he needed was in the garage. After he was done and was getting paid he said "BTW, it's a Ferrari, not a Porsche"

Ohh I have thoughts. They would get slammed on the forum, and I just cant handle the mental battle of explaining myself. I will say this. Im a life long witness. My parents and grandparents were witnesses. Ive delt in a very real way with demons in the past. Never been involved in the occult. At all ! And I have a different view than most of my fellow witnesses when it comes to aliens. They are real. They are demons. Its as easy as that. Many people understanding may be different than mine. Thats ok. I know my life. Lol If ever there is some sort of Alien disclosure. While everyone freaks out , I would be like. MmmmmmmHmmmmnnn😂😂😂😂😂😅

They should do a public update on this, Australian tourism would skyrocket!

You posted that 5 hrs ago and still no photos??? How dare you!!! 😆🤪

I WANT FULL REPORT OF EVERY SQUARE CENTIMETERS !

She had an ill mother then she was cured by Jesus Aparently she couldn’t keep her mouth shut and soon lots of ill people came to Jesus to be cured 😵‍💫😅

I was just talking to a brother whose son is in video services in the US. They are reducing staff and even discussing downsizing Ramapo - because they are able to use AI for so much of the artwork and videos. He was telling me that what used to take weeks is now taking days and with only a few people instead of a large staff. More and more are getting sent back into the field. They are even able reduce the number of people needed for acting out scenes. That is a lot of donated funds saved and more workers for the field. It won't surprise me if we see an update soon describing all the ways the GB has approved for AI usage. I know they will always have humans to review, edit and approve the final product; but most of our pictures and videos will be at least partially if not fully AI generated.

To resolve this problem with 4.0.11 you have to delete the entry in red in the error message that pops up. It warns you but press yes. Upon restarting the app all the entries for your Assignments, Duties, Reports and Upcoming are gone. Open settings then About and click on Refresh Data, ignore any warning. It will repopulate the app with your personal data.

There is your answer. Jehovah would not allow it. Theref6, it's not worth worrying about. The theory assumes time travel to the past is possible. This is yet another limiting factor to the theory. Why worry about something that is likely not even possible. Further, knowing what we know about the future, what would the moral implications be? Why would someone from the new system willingly choose to come to the past and expose themselves to Satan's sick and twisted world? What would the moral implications be of seeking to immerse oneself into the filth of this system? Why bother traveling back in time when everyone from those past events has been resurrected? Want to meet Einstein or Gengis Khan or Noah? Just go next door and say hi. Yes, I know seeing the historical events is an attraction, but is that really worth all the effort? People who propose such theories have no knowledge about Jehovah, his Kingdom, his purpose for the Earth, or what the immediate future holds.

If they are all 1 hour videos, I suspect we will only get 2 per year. We got 3 this year but Episode 5 is only about 30 minutes. I only hope that I will see them all in my lifetime and that's going to take some doing.

It shows we are still moving forward.

There will be a significant update to the add-on soon.

The intro of the apostles felt like the intro to a heist movie.

I think a great many things will become clear post Armageddon.

I don't know anything about a reptilian race, but there are a lot of cold blooded people that speak with a forked tongue...

This is the main part of our rear garden: There's a lot of maintenance required, and my wife does the greater part. She was still using a chainsaw at 81

You know that feeling that we’re losing the strength to keep fighting because of so many bad things happening? But then comes that sense of relief in knowing that Jehovah is taking care of everything. And we pray for the Kingdom to come soon, because it’s becoming very hard to endure.

Different characters, different stories. You can probably film them around each other. My thing is: What happens at the end of the Gospels? Jesus death is almost his defining moment, and it's brutal to watch. They're putting out advisories about the scenes with demon possessed people, and they got complaints about the 'fall of Jerusalem' being too graphic. It's possible they won't show the 'impalement' episodes at the convention.

Wife and I heard a humming noise from the Kitchen Range but couldn't figure out what was causing it. After a few days wife called the appliance store for a technician to come out. He took a few seconds to size up the situation and turned the overhead fan off. Another $100 down the drain.

Also, you could only stand from a distance from the outdoor set, but now you can walk through the set as part of the main tour if they're not using it at the time of your tour. I did have a Private tour of the set; my cousin was a Bethelite at the time. But we were strictly not allowed to take photos while walking around the town.

Thursday, May 14 He will judge the inhabited earth with righteousness and the peoples with his faithfulness.—Ps. 96:13. How will Jehovah glorify his name in the near future? By means of his judgments. Soon he will execute Babylon the Great for bringing reproach on his holy name. (Rev. 17:5, 16; 19:1, 2) Some who witness the destruction of Babylon the Great might join us in true worship. Finally, at Armageddon, Jehovah will destroy Satan’s entire system, eliminating all those who oppose him and blaspheme his name but saving all those who love and obey him and who are proud to give him glory. (Mark 8:38; 2 Thess. 1:6-10) After the final test that follows Christ’s Thousand Year Reign, Jehovah will have completely sanctified his name. (Rev. 20:7-10) At that time, “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of Jehovah as the waters cover the sea.” (Hab. 2:14) How thrilling it will be when everyone alive will be giving Jehovah the glory due his name! w25.01 7 ¶15-16

Wednesday, May 13 This man offered one sacrifice for sins for all time.—Heb. 10:12. Jesus focused special attention on people who felt weighed down by sin and invited them to become his followers. He knew that sin was the root cause of mankind’s ills. So he reached out to men and women who were known to be sinners. Using an illustration, he explained: “Healthy people do not need a physician, but those who are ill do.” He added: “I came to call, not righteous people, but sinners.” (Matt. 9:12, 13) Jesus lived up to those words. He gently forgave the sins of the woman who washed his feet with her tears. (Luke 7:37-50) He taught vital truths to the Samaritan woman at the well, though he knew of her immoral lifestyle. (John 4:7, 17-19,25, 26) God even empowered Jesus to undo the end result of all sin—death. How? Jesus resurrected people—male and female, children and adults.—Matt. 11:5. w24.08 4 ¶9-10

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a technical solution we implemented in our Kingdom Hall regarding the internet connection. As you know, the instructions from the organization state that every Hall with internet access should have a Wi-Fi router with a password, which can be given to publishers who need it. A simple and effective solution. In our Hall, however, we went a step further. In addition to the password-protected Wi-Fi for internal use, we set up a second open Wi-Fi network — no password required — but restricted exclusively to jw.org. This means that anyone connecting to this network can browse the organization's website and also download content through the JW Library app, while all other sites and services are automatically blocked. The practical result is that during meetings or study groups, brothers and sisters can connect freely without having to ask for a password, and use both jw.org and JW Library without any restrictions, while the network remains fully protected from inappropriate use. Regarding the internal network, the password-protected Wi-Fi is set as a hidden network — meaning it does not appear in the list of available networks and can only be connected to by manually entering the network name. This adds an extra layer of security for internal use. This solution requires an OPNsense firewall (which can run on an old unused PC or inexpensive dedicated hardware), a managed switch, and a Wi-Fi access point. The setup involves two separate networks: a hidden, password-protected LAN for internal use, and a dedicated VLAN with DNS filtering that allows only jw.org and its CDN subdomains. I want to make it clear that this is not meant as an alternative to the instructions received — those should always be followed. It is simply an additional option for Halls that already have the necessary hardware and want to offer something more convenient and automated for the brothers. In our specific situation, when this solution was presented to the IT department at Bethel, we were told that it fully satisfied the conditions of the instructions — and was actually considered more precise. If anyone is interested in the technical details or would like to know how to replicate this setup, I am happy to share more information. I hope this can be helpful to someone!

There are different degrees of apostasy. We’re here not to judge who is within redemption and who isn’t. Satan was perfect, contemporary apostates are imperfect. GB acknowledges apostates can come back:

We won because Jehovah wanted it that way.

The study November https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/202026259 I used AI to change the original image because of copyright, but the message shown on TV is still the same. If you want to see true image click the link above.

I loved the music video so much! The gorgeous romanian clothing and culture reminded me a lot of my grandparents Polish background. I'm a violinist and my children love music and animals so the puppy was a sweet touch. Can't wait to watch as a family.

Warning on this brothers, as documents begin to be released, it would be wise not to be too curious about spiritism. Just as we would not want to be curious about other activity they do, this is the same. It appears that it isn’t scifi but they actually have the capabilities to create and move objects. After all, we do have a couple examples of their power in the bible, Creating a serpent in front of pharaoh, a “star” after Jesus was born. No matter how crazy things get, we will not be misled, rather shows how close we are to the end

I know a brother who knows him. Seems pride got the better of him. Pride can get the better of even angels after all 🤨

Thanks Matt, The moderators will do our best to keep this as the NW Publisher topic and the other as the Baruch topic. It can be found here, if you are interested in an alternative:

If you go back to the 2022 beginning of the Special thread on the announcement of our beginning of filming in Australia, Br Tony (from Australia) said in Mary 2022... Posted May 25, 2022 "To answer some of the above questions. I'm sure it was mentioned in Sydney there are 18 (approx 55min) Episodes. It is a 7.5 year project. " 2022 = 7 1/2 years is 2029. The posting is on top of page 2

They're using our artwork! 😄🤨 Source: on X today, in reference to Donald Trump's golden statue of himself at his golf club..

Lasagna, Sandwiches and Brownies...😁

Helicopter. Someone from the future wanted to see Jesus as a baby...

An update on this issue.... After several emails back & forth, sending screenshots of everything, it's acknowledged as a bug which should be resolved in a minor NWS update soon. In fairness, some of the screenshots were bits I'd forgotten to send, but eventually with all the information I had the result. Given the time difference (12 hours) it took a couple of days, which is fair enough. Hopefully soon we'll have an update, which migh5 also resolve these other issues 😂

I think everyone will be surprised one way or another...

I've had one of those sleep tests - thought they would never quit attaching wires. Makes it a bit difficult to go to the restroom in the middle of the night

I think we would have won anyway. Usually, these court cases are dependent on what happened at the time and not based on what happened later.

When do we get our lightsabers?

A Stargate! And I think Aarons priestly breastplate of judgement is actually the remote control device. Each stone sequence being a destination coordinate. Just part 1 in the introductory course on Conspiray Theory, easy! 😁😉😂

Five or six years. I can see a continuation right into the new system.

We got one episode the first year, then two episodes, and now three episodes in a single year. We have heard that episode 8 (and maybe 9) are well underway and nearing completion. So we might expect three video sections next year as well. If that was true, we would be halfway through the series in four years. If the kept up three per year, we could possibly finish in another three years after next. Starting in 2024, the total of 7 years would take us to2030. Originally the project was to be completed by 2029. So maybe it will.
