This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth.—Matt. 24:14.

Today, there are about 109,400 congregations throughout the world, and some 895,800 brothers and sisters serve as pioneers. Nearly eight million people now accept “the true knowledge,” applying it in their lives. (Dan. 12:4; Isa. 60:22) This is particularly impressive, since Jesus foretold that his disciples would be “objects of hatred by all people” because of his name. He added that his followers would be persecuted, imprisoned, and even killed. (Luke 21:12-17) Despite the opposition of Satan, his demons, and opposers among mankind, Jehovah’s people have enjoyed phenomenal success in carrying out their commission to make disciples. Today, they are preaching in “all the inhabited earth,” from tropical jungles to frigid tundra, in mountains, in deserts, in cities, and in the most remote countryside. This could never have been accomplished without divine backing. w12 8/15 1:13

“I will call forth against [Gog] throughout all my mountainous region a sword,” is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah. “Against his own brother the sword of each one will come to be.”—Ezek. 38:21.

Panic-stricken, those on Satan’s side will be thrown into confusion and will turn their weapons against their own ranks—warrior against warrior. However, havoc is also to come Satan’s way. Jehovah states: “Fire and sulphur I shall rain down upon [Gog] and upon his bands and upon the many peoples that will be with him.” (Ezek. 38:22) What will be the result of this divine action? The nations will have to realize that their crushing defeat is brought about by the order of Jehovah himself. Then, as did the ancient Egyptian attackers who pursued the Israelites at the Red Sea, Satan’s forces may cry out in desperation: “Jehovah certainly fights for them”! (Ex. 14:25) Yes, the nations will be forced to acknowledge Jehovah.—Ezek. 38:23. w12 9/15 1:11, 12

Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal.—Matt. 6:20.

In recent times, some countries have suffered severe disasters. Notably, many brothers in these lands have shown remarkable resilience. This does not mean that it was easy. Yet in each case, they put the disaster behind them and moved on in Jehovah’s service. In September 2009, over 80 percent of Manila, Philippines, was flooded by torrential rains. A wealthy man who lost much said, “The flood was a great equalizer, bringing difficulties and sufferings to both the rich and the poor.” Building one’s life around material things, which can so quickly disappear, often brings disappointment. How much wiser it is to center our life on our relationship with Jehovah, which can remain intact no matter what happens around us!—Heb. 13:5, 6. w12 10/15 1:12, 13

Jehovah felt regrets that he had made men in the earth, and he felt hurt at his heart.—Gen. 6:6.

“I was devastated,” says one sister whose daughter was disfellowshipped. It may be difficult for those who have never experienced such a loss to appreciate how devastating it can be. Nevertheless, it would be unwise to let the improper course of a disfellowshipped family member distance you from Jehovah. How, then, can you cope with the profound grief that arises when a family member leaves Jehovah? Do not blame yourself for what happened. Jehovah has put a choice before humans, and each dedicated and baptized family member must “carry his own load” of responsibility. (Gal. 6:5) Ultimately, Jehovah holds the sinner—not you—responsible for his or her choice. (Ezek. 18:20) Also, do not blame others. Respect Jehovah’s arrangement for discipline. Take your stand against the Devil—not against shepherds who act to protect the congregation.—1 Pet. 5:8, 9. w13 1/15 2:16-18

I need help, I love and enjoy all the pictures that I am able to see.  Sadly i cannot see about 70% of them.  Many are from Mexico and I feel very sad not to be able to see them, because I know a lot of friends in different parts of Mexico.  I only see a blank and something that looks like a small page icon.  I even tried clicking on it to see if I could see it but no.  The thumbnail keeps buffering and I don"t see anything  I would appreciate any help.

Truly I say to you, One of you will betray me.—Matt. 26:21.

The night of his last Passover celebration, Jesus announced to Peter, James, and John in the garden of Gethsemane: “Look! My betrayer has drawn near.” Immediately, Judas appeared in the garden with his coconspirators, “and going straight up to Jesus he said: ‘Good day, Rabbi!’ and kissed him very tenderly.” (Matt. 26:46-50; Luke 22:47, 52) Judas “betrayed righteous blood” and handed Jesus over to Christ’s enemies. And for what did money-loving Judas do that? For a mere 30 pieces of silver! (Matt. 27:3-5) The name Judas has been synonymous with “traitor” ever since, especially one who betrays another under the guise of friendship. Judas met a shameful end because of his having turned traitor against the anointed of Jehovah. (Acts 1:18-20) How vital it is that we reject any tendency we may have toward blind ambition or greed, which would cause us to lose Jehovah’s favor! w12 4/15 2:6, 7

If you are using Tapatalk that's a glitch I experience also. Click on the particular post, then on options, then on "open on web". It will open a browser page with that post focused and the image will be visible... Also any subsequent pic with the same problem. (you have to be previously logged in to jwtalk on the browser. If not, log in on that moment and then repeat the process)

Thank you Brother Joao, but I am using my computer with Windows Vista, and I can normally see everything fine.

[Mrchavezd]

Problem solved.  I went to my Tablet, Samsung Galaxy and I can see and enjoy all the pictures.  It is Windows Vista that does not work for me.  Thank you anyway.

Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding. In all your ways take notice of him, and he himself will make your paths straight.—Prov. 3:5, 6.

Many marriages that seemed to be headed for failure have in time turned out to be very successful. Christians who refuse to give up quickly on a difficult marriage often enjoy a fine reward. Consider what can happen in a religiously divided household. The apostle Peter wrote: “You wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, in order that, if any are not obedient to the word, they may be won without a word through the conduct of their wives, because of having been eyewitnesses of your chaste conduct together with deep respect.” (1 Pet. 3:1, 2) Yes, because of his mate’s fine conduct, an unbeliever may embrace the true faith! Such a saved marriage honors God and can be a great blessing for the husband, the wife, and any children they may have. w12 5/15 2:8, 9

It crushed the iron, the copper, the molded clay, the silver and the gold.—Dan. 2:45.

The Anglo-American World Power will not be replaced by some future world power. This last world power may be weaker than that represented by the legs of iron, but it will not disintegrate on its own. (Dan. 2:33, 34) Does the number of toes of the image have special meaning? Consider: In other visions, Daniel mentions specific numbers—for example, the number of horns on the heads of various beasts. Those numbers are significant. However, when describing the image, Daniel does not mention the number of toes. Therefore, the number seems no more significant than the fact that the image had multiple arms, hands, fingers, legs, and feet. Daniel does specifically mention that the toes would be made of iron and clay. From his description, we can conclude that the Anglo-American World Power is the one that will be dominating when the “stone” representing God’s Kingdom hits the feet of the image. w12 6/15 2:10, 11
