From Daniel 11:27 There seems like a lot of warnings on misinformation. Politicians have perfected the art of lying and misinformation. Anything that cancels out a Bible principle or prophecy is a Zero

Yes, we did. I was actually looking for the one with Bro Splaine (I think) who gave the statistics. I wanted to quote it accurately. Snippet from the transcript

Bump

Even funnier when you see that was from 2018 Yeah, God used pagan astroligical info to explain the timing

I don’t think so. It should be obvious to others if you have no leaning vs you do have a leaning. That was the entire point of lawyers looking at posts and asking questions about them. I wonder IF we were up for this jury and they were reviewing all of our posts - what would they think?

That got me thinking .. If someone looked at MY social media posts for the last decade, would I pass the "neutral" test? https://www.facebook.com/jerry.trotter.73/ It even caused me to go look and see everything I have posted on Facebook - even though I don't post much ... It is good to review your own account from time to time - don't you think?

I saw that there is a Bible Museum in Washington DC. https://www.museumofthebible.org/ I would have loved to have visited it when in DC, but I didn't know. Anyway, there is a lot of artifacts on-line as well. Here is a snippet from something I was looking at this morning (note 9:7): https://collections.museumofthebible.org/artifacts/57881-the-holy-bible-recovery-version?theme=new-to-collections

I remember when this was going on. That trial was a BIG deal and there were a LOT of conversations about guilt vs innocence. Ultimately, we know who decides that and I know we are ALL glad that we are not the Judge. I feel sorry for those families who never really got any closure from their loss. In the New World all of these things will be straightened out. I sure hope it is sooner rather than later

It seems what started out as a FYI about a particular politician selling Bibles has become a topic about the politicians themselves. I am just going to lock the topic here - as there isn't more than can be said about the Bible sales. AND to prevent what could easily look like non-neutral thoughts. We all acknowledge that the only answer to all of this corruption is the Kingdom of God. PS - I hope millions are sold and it causes people to talk to us ... asking us what the Bible actually teaches!!!

Funny how the headline left out ONE word from what was said: "Ukraine will EVENTUALLY join NATO" I am sure they will AFTER the war is brought to a close.

I am wondering - how do you think the branch is doing this? The elders only report total number of partakers - there is no information on age OR when they started partaking that is sent to the branches. EDIT: one more odd thought to throw into the mix .... Just a what if. I was baptized in 1982. If I was one of the anointed - I would be in that overlap. I am 56 years old. Now, what if I just now started partaking this year or next - as I finally came to grips with that calling (not saying that I did or will!). Would you count me in the overlap or not? You have to see that there is no way for the GB to "pay attention (keep on the watch) to the number of partakers back in 1991/92". What Bible passage do you suppose will be part of our "dramatic" Bible reading? I don't see one listed on the program. EDIT 2: So as not to derail this topic - I started a new one with that question:

Interesting - a few years ago ... We had a Catholic church just down the street from us that we drove past on our way to the Kingdom Hall on Sundays. You could see the people going in and how they were dressed. It was clear who made an effort to show their God how they felt (and perhaps some dressed up just to make a show to others - not for me to judge), but it was also very clear who did NOT. I sincerely hope that when ones drive by our Kingdom Halls and see us enter - they want to praise our God Jehovah and not talk bad about Him becuase we take worship of Him casually!

And just that fast .........
