  1. From said document: So, this was a report submitted to the UN. It's not a binding resolution. It's not a non-binding resolution. It's simply a suggestion.
  2. At least 1 congregation in my circuit is having Zoom meetings this week because of a covid outbreak. Another congregation is also experiencing an upsurge. We just had our Convention end of July and first of August.
  3. NATO isn't a government. Plus it's comprised of most of those other governments listed. So it would be out of place to depict NATO in that list of governments
  4. And did he say this was practice for the great tribulation {or emergencies) or is that a conclusion you reached?
  5. *** ws12 9/15 pp. 7-8 par. 14 How This World Will Come to an End *** 14 In this prophecy, God’s Kingdom is represented by a large stone that was cut from a mountain in 1914. The mountain represents Jehovah’s sovereignty, or right to rule. That stone will soon hit the feet of the image. At Armageddon, the feet and the rest of the image will be smashed. (Read Daniel 2:44, 45.) So the Anglo-American World Power will still be ruling when Armageddon comes. How exciting it will be to see this prophecy fulfilled!c (See footnote.) But what will Jehovah do to Satan? https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=402012681&srctype=wol&srcid=share&par=26 The stone hits the image at Armageddon
  6. Where is this? We aren't doing this in Ohio. I've not seen any direction from the Branch on this
  7. Is this comment a joke? Was it meant to be funny? It's a whiteboard animation. All the characters are white with black outline. Perhaps I'm not understanding what you mean?
  8. I guess @Tortuga might want to explain what he means by values
  9. There is non-human biological material all over the Earth. It's on every continent and every climate. Just got to know where to look. Don't let the truth deniers win!
  10. Especially since they can come and take our Kingdom Halls. You take Christendom's churches and cathedrals and they'll collapse. That's all the government needs to do. Us, on the other hand? Covid proved we can continue to worship just fine without stepping foot into a Kingdom Hall. So, yeah, it will take more. More effort, more work, more reason to turn on us. Some other reason to turn on us. Perhaps that reason will be simply that we didn't roll over and die with the rest of Babylon the Great.
  11. The Slave is not yet 100% certain what or how this judgment message will be delivered. You have not missed anything because nothing has been shared yet. @zoebarry's idea is just as valid as anyone else at this point. As suggested, we might simply deliver a tract with a link to a website where the message will be streamed.
  12. Im not seeing the connection, beyond the fact that Russia (and allies) are the KotN. How does the war in Ukraine fit in with the prophecy?
  13. What does this have to do with the war in Ukraine?
  14. The oblast is bordered by Poland to the south, Lithuania to the north and east, and the Baltic Sea to the northwest. The territory was formerly the northern part of the Prussian province of East Prussia; the remaining southern part of the province is today part of the Warmian–Masurian Voivodeship in Poland. With the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II, the territory was annexed to the Russian SFSR by the Soviet Union. Following the post-war migration and flight and expulsion of Germans, the territory was populated with Soviet citizens, mostly Russians. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaliningrad_Oblast
  15. EarthSky.org crunched the numbers. At 11:15 Universal time, or 7:15 a.m. Eastern time, on July 8 each year, about 96 percent of the planet’s population is bathed in at least a bit of sunlight. An additional 3 percent is in “astronomical twilight,” which occurs when the sun is below the horizon but its glow still illuminates a patch of the sky. This means, 99 percent of Earth’s nearly 8 billion residents will be on the sunlit side of Earth at the same time. July 8 turns out to be the day that most people around the planet experience daylight at the same time https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/07/07/sunlight-99-percent-earth-july8/
  16. You're still thinking physically, like they have literal eyes, etc... They are spirits. We cannot understand or comprehend how spirits operate. They are described for us in human terms such as flying, having wings, Jehovah's eyes roving about the Earth, the finger of God, etc... None of these are real, they are just words used so we can understand how spirits interact with us. When we try to understand spirits and how they operate, we are the same as some amoeba trying to understand what a human is. Compared to Jehovah (and all the spirits) we are mere grasshoppers.
  17. Latest upgrade seems more like a downgrade. Where did the FS group list go? I really depended on the list showing who turned in their time. I have a publisher that comes to me beginning of each month asking if his submission went through.
  18. ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) – For the next month, more than 16,000 people are coming to Rochester for a regional convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses at the Mayo Civic Center. The event is returning for the first time since 2019 due to the pandemic. The estimated economic impact is somewhere between $6-7 million, many of that going to local businesses. https://www.kttc.com/2023/06/30/jehovahs-witness-convention-returns-leads-major-economic-impact/?outputType=amp
  19. Yeah, I'm trying to figure out how this could be incorporated into a real life replicatior. Combine this with 3D printed food somehow...
  20. It's grown from stem cells. No circulatory system. No organs. No blood. Nothing to bleed. However, they are looking to add blood into the process. Not all cultured meats, mind you. Just like sausage - sometimes you gotta ask
  21. While the steak is currently just a prototype, and designed as a thought-provoking piece of art, it is a real piece of meat grown from human cells. Let's not confuse art and sarcasm with valid proposals.
  22. Wouldn't it be both? It's grown from chicken cells. Isn't that where all chicken meat comes from? I'm interested in learning how the process works.
  23. I don't believe that's the case, since no Satan does not know the day or the hour. Instead, I believe it is Jehovah who knows in advance when Satan is going to maneuver the nations to declare Peace and Security.
