  1. We walk in truth by reading and meditating on Gods Word daily. This allows us to have the tools to have a full share in sharing Bible truths by means of letter writing and phone witnessing. This also allows us to constantly have Gods Word in our hearts and on our minds so we will want to share with everyone we meet. I love the part from the RC that expressed how we are going to need to have the skills to teach the resurrected ones. We have an opportunity now to fine tune those skills. Have a good day!
  2. The spirit of the world is around us and it can distract us in subtle ways if we allow it. So, from our heart we should think, talk, work and live in the way Jehovah approves. We do this when we take time to let God’s truth sink deep down into our heart by means of daily Bible reading, personal study and attending congregation meetings. We need to remember that how we develop and protect our hearts spiritually will be a deciding factor if we shall live in the righteous new system or if we lose our lives because our hearts failed us spiritually. Have a wonderful day!😍
  3. Only Jehovah has absolute freedom. Jehovah has given us the gift of free will, which brings us true freedom. This gift allows us to make decisions that show how much we love Jehovah. So let us continue to make choices that honor him and remember that the limits Jehovah has set on our freedom are for our protection. When everyone accepts these limits, we can all enjoy true freedom. Have a great day!
  4. It's my first time and first week of pioneer school and all I can say is Jehovah really loves his sheep. WOW!! What an experience and I'm only on my 2nd day. ❤️❤️❤️

  5. What a beautiful reminder today that God's Word, the Bible, is here for us forever. No matter what trial we are going through, the Bible can comfort us if we pick it up, read, and meditate on the words on the written pages.
  6. In the new world, we will experience the full the blessings of the spiritual paradise. A spiritual paradise under the rulership of God’s Kingdom. During that time of global restoration, Jehovah will continue to mold earth’s inhabitants. God will make our minds and bodies perfect, so that we will be able to absorb his teaching and do his will flawlessly. So we must be determined to continue submitting to Jehovah, showing him that we view his molding as an expression of his love for us.
  7. We draw close to God by having a regular routine of reading his Word, the Bible, meditating on it, and by making any needed adjustments.
  8. Paul realized, however, that it was only by God’s undeserved kindness that he was able to carry out his ministry. Paul deeply appreciated the merciful way in which he was treated, and he wanted to make sure that God’s undeserved kindness had not been extended to him in vain. So he “labored in excess” of all the other apostles. Paul’s example clearly shows that if we confess our sins and change our course, Jehovah is willing to blot out even grievous sins on the basis of Jesus’ ransom sacrifice. What a good lesson this is for any who find it hard to believe that the benefits of Christ’s sacrifice could be meant for them personally! {w13 1/15 pg. 23-24 par. 8}
  9. The expression “continue to be made new” indicates that putting on the new personality is an ongoing process. This is encouraging, because it assures us that regardless of how long we have been serving Jehovah, we can keep making progress in cultivating and refining the Christian qualities that make up the new personality.
  10. We must use every opportunity to talk to those we meet about Jehovah and the blessings his Kingdom will bring. We need to use God's Word as our main tool and follow up any interest that may result from those discussions. As the text stated, we do this with the intent on making disciples.
  11. We can thus be sure that Jehovah will fulfill his promise to rid this earth of injustice. Yes, his way of judging can be summed up as follows: firmness where necessary, mercy wherever possible.
  12. We need to pray frequently for God’s spirit to help us fight any tendency of feeling superior to others.
  13. Abraham was willing to wait because he was sure that Jehovah would keep his promises. He had faith in Jehovah. Do we have a waiting attitude just like Abraham? This text reminding me of relying on Jehovah matter what trials may come my way and having faith that his promises WILL come true.
  14. The “friends” Jesus had in mind were Jehovah God and himself. If we today follow that same counsel, we are brought into the finest friendship that can be enjoyed on earth, that of Jehovah God by means of his self-sacrificing Son, Jesus Christ.
  15. A timely broadcast. My non-witness daughter and son-in-law are having a little rift. I mentioned the broadcast and she agreed to watch it online when it comes out officially. Jehovah is a provider for all. ❤️
  16. May we offer support and encouragement to those that have not made the decision to dedicate their lives with hope that the truth will touch their heart and they will soon get baptized.
  17. Is there a thread for Pure Worship of Jehovah—Restored At Last book?

  18. Can I get suggestions for purchasing ministry organizers for magazines, tracts, etc? Thank you in advance.

      There are several online sites that sell things like this—specially made for Jehovah's Witnesses. Two that I have bought from are Ministry Ideaz and Madzay. But you might find this topic to be helpful too. Note, however, that the main list is quite old, and so may have some dead links in it. It's six pages, but it might be worth a look.

      Thank you! I did review the mentioned link.

  19. This is so important to remember. If you have learned you have offended or have been offended by someone it is best to talk to that person right away. There’s no need to talk with other people about it. Making peace with an offended brother test our humility because when you are humble you do not argue to establish your “rights.” Remember we do not go to the offended one to convince him that we are right or wrong. We go to restore peace. Make we always be peaceful, peace makers, and peace loving.
  20. It’s wrong to exalt individuals, even if they are anointed, CO’s, COBI’s, elders, etc. Giving them undue praise or attention could make it hard for them to stay humble. It is worth our effort to put into practice what the Bible says about rendering honor. We also don’t want to think that we are better than others. If so, we want to dismiss those thoughts immediately. We want to follow Jesus example of being lowly in mind and free of arrogance and pride. By achieving proper balance brings many rich benefits.
