  1. Interesting the campaign that we are doing.. Happenstance I think not.. Special Campaign During September 2025, Jehovah’s Witnesses are making a worldwide effort to share the Bible’s answers to the following questions: Why have mankind’s efforts to end war failed? How can you be sure that true peace is possible and will soon become a reality? We are distributing this article and the magazine that it is a part of in over 450 languages. As part of this campaign, we are also presenting a special public talk around the world on the theme:
  2. This topic has stirred a lot of emotion … this section is a public section .. we are not the echo chamber for whatever “news” agency. So I will be closing this topic for awhile.
  3. This topic has gone completely off the rails … STOP.. I have had to hide some posts ..🙈 Jehovah in Jeremiah firmly explained how to live as exiles in a foreign land… We are exiles in a foreign land … We are figuratively living in Babylon… Since we are Witnesses of Jehovah .. let’s get biblical… Notice Jehovahs words to Jeremiah… Jeremiah 29:7 And seek the peace of the city to which I have exiled you, and pray in its behalf to Jehovah, for in its peace you will have peace. 8 For this is what Jehovah of armies, the God of Israel, says: “Do not let your prophets and your diviners who are among you deceive you, and do not listen to the dreams that they are dreaming. 9 For ‘they are prophesying lies to you in my name. I have not sent them,’ declares Jehovah.”’” Remaining neutral as a Christian in the face of political assassinations is not about indifference—it’s about anchoring your response in faith, compassion, and discernment as laid out in Jehovahs word. Use it as you were trained … This is your test …. Right now .. the posts you made …Did you pass it? Or did you get sucked into the diviners of this system? Jesus lived in a politically volatile time, yet He never aligned Himself with partisan agendas. Instead, He focused on the Kingdom of Heaven, confronting injustice without being consumed by political entanglements. Neutrality means not being swept into tribalism. It means evaluating every political event—including assassinations—through the lens of Jehovah’s applied word. Not the diviners of this world.
  4. Which part is that ..? I looked for the next few months all I noticed.. I may have missed something. Sept 18 Help Your Children to Use Electronic Devices Wisely
  5. My wife and I rented for years .. but it was the same old cycle, the owner had a desire to sell or move on. So that meant we moved too many times. We finally bought and we only moved to accommodate our needs not others. You also build equity… stability .. and a place to live as you get older. Pray… let others know what you are looking for.. pray some more .. count the cost.. act.. allow Jehovah to bless your action
  6. You have got lots of feedback … which is what you wanted. Considering we are an international crowd here and do not know your local circumstances.. use your God given conscience and see how that works.. we are not discussing biblical morality we are discussing an adornment that is attached by means of a piercing.. no one died. No body part was amputated or traumatized.. You may actually learn a life lesson which is always good. That being said realize this adornment is viewed differently in every culture.. Across cultures, piercings often carry: • Spiritual meaning (protection, devotion, transformation) • Social roles (marriage eligibility, warrior status) • Health beliefs (Ayurvedic or holistic practices) • Fashion and identity (especially in modern global fusion) So you make the decision.. the glory of being a free moral agent .. choices
  7. Rather disconcerting… now I understand why different nations do not want US milk products.. Animal protein (animal byproduct meals) sources have been used in dairy cattle feeding programs for years. Products such as blood meal, fish meal, meat and bone have long been known for their ability to supply rumen-undegraded protein and, more recently, metabolizable protein and critical amino acids (lysine, methionine). Blood meal is one of the most commonly used lysine sources in dairy cattle diets to meet amino acid needs. However, when fed as a commodity, blood meal is often characterized by inconsistency and variability. Also, the source of blood meal from either porcine or poultry sources has been brought into question. There is some evidence that suggests poultry blood meal is less digestible by the dairy animal when compared to pork blood meal. Trials at the University of Minnesota have illustrated the variability of lysine levels in blood meal. One study compared four samples of blood meal for lysine percentage, percent rumen-undegraded protein, percent lysine digestibility and percent metabolizable protein in the lysine. Lysine digestibility is one of the most important values because it shows how much of the lysine can be utilized by the cow. https://www.agproud.com/articles/19028-the-use-and-future-of-animal-proteins-in-dairy-cow-diets
  8. Old news .. no new substance … let you God given conscience be your guide. Let’s move on..
  9. Yep will be interesting to see what toys remain and that are useful… But we have over 144,000 superhumans with special power and imbued knowledge that will provide the big and little picture.. Stand back and be prepared to be amazed in our involvement…
  10. Who needs the internet when the creator answers prayers .. it is his great tribulation… it is his people .. it is his judgement period ..I will take that over server farms still being miraculously powered.Think what angel means “messenger” pretty important job for a heavenly information service. Jehovahs internet knows how each animal and sparrow is doing … pretty comprehensive in my opinion. He can also write things on walls not as graffiti but as a wake up call..
  11. The core issue is privacy is a two way street..... everyone wants it but doesn't want to give it. I guess we could do the Martin Luther way and nail the proclamation to the door...
  12. This rather interesting.. Greek Archbishop hands Mr Trump a cross and says he is the New Constantine https://x.com/jackposobiec/status/1904268118098161887?s=48
  13. Background these guys wanted elders notes on their judicial committee https://www.albernivalleynews.com/news/bc-jehovahs-witnesses-privacy-case-may-go-to-supreme-court-7899109
  14. In my area of Canada gas is 1.79 per litre CAD which converts to 4.73 USD per US gallon which we consider reasonable. a far cry from .20 cents per gallon in the 60's..
  15. To keep this topic on track …I sent you a private message … on changing the KH name.. Lance

    My Moms parents came into the truth in the 1920's ...my Dad 1930’s he was imprisoned in Canada for 2 years for not supporting the war effort... My parents were good examples of loving the truth and sharing it with others to the best of their ability...they raised all the kids to love Jehovah, and to make the truth their own... and all of them still do ...after all these years...
