I wonder if any of our bros are noticing the conversations at the front. I mean if they can lipread.

 

My old Cong in UK needed to buy a kingdom hall but only could afford a small amount. Hardly anyone showed up for the auction on the day, and our deaf brother saw them discuss the reserve from across the room. It was the exact amount they could afford and they ended up buying it!

Here is the chorus verse from 148: (but the whole song is appropriate in this situation)

 

Jehovah provides escape for the loyal.

His servants will see what a mighty Crag is he

.So with courage and faith in our God,we spread the fame

Of Jehovah, our Source of escape,and praise his name.

[Vinnie]

You can tell who our brothers and sisters are.  They are the ones who are smiling. We are such a happy people.

Good call! 
 

1. 1. Firm and determined in this time of the end,

   Prepared are God’s servants the good news to defend.

   The Devil has fought and opposed them.

   With Jehovah, they take their stand against him.

   (CHORUS)

   Then forward, you Witnesses, ever strong of heart!

   Rejoice that in God’s work, you too may have a part!

   Go tell far and wide that the Paradise is near

   And that soon all its blessings will be here.

2. 2. Servants of Jah do not seek a life of ease;

   The world and its rulers we do not try to please.

   Unspotted at all times remaining,

   Our integrity we will keep maintaining.

   (CHORUS)

   Then forward, you Witnesses, ever strong of heart!

   Rejoice that in God’s work, you too may have a part!

   Go tell far and wide that the Paradise is near

   And that soon all its blessings will be here.

3. 3.God and his Kingdom are mocked and pushed aside;

   His great name is slandered, its holiness denied.

   Let’s share in its sanctification,

   And declare it to ev’ry tribe and nation.

   (CHORUS)

   Then forward, you Witnesses, ever strong of heart!

   Rejoice that in God’s work, you too may have a part!

   Go tell far and wide that the Paradise is near

   And that soon all its blessings will be here.

 

I am honored and privileged to have part tonight!

Song #22. The Kingdom Is Now In Place.

[Friends just call me Ross]

Two outcomes:

Jehovah's people in Russia declared NOT extremists and the ban is abandoned.

Jehovah's people in Russia declared extremists and Jehovah gives them power beyond what is normal, to cope with all that miscarriage of justice would mean for them.

 

Either way, Jehovah's people in Russia will go forward.

Russia may abandon justice.

But Jehovah will never abandon his people, or allow them to have to face more than they can endure.

 

Reminding myself of these facts helps my heart not to hurt so much.

Here we go

It's about to begin (end)
