The Devil has raised the issue of universal sovereignty.

Related to it, he has called into question the integrity of humans to their Creator.

Satan brought persecution upon the upright man Job. Why? In order to break Job’s integrity to Jehovah. Job’s wife and his three “troublesome comforters” served the Devil’s purpose at that time. As shown in the book of Job, the Devil challenged God, claiming that no human would remain faithful to Him if Satan were allowed to test that person. But Job held fast his integrity, thus proving Satan a liar. (Job 1:8–2:9; 16:2; 27:5; 31:6) The Devil persecutes Witnesses of Jehovah today in an effort to break their integrity and prove his challenge true.
Knowing that the Devil brings persecution upon us because he desperately wants to break our integrity to God can actually help us to be courageous and strong. (Deuteronomy 31:6) Our God is the Universal Sovereign, and he will help us to maintain our integrity. May we always seek to make Jehovah’s heart rejoice by being integrity keepers, giving him a reply to the great taunter, Satan the Devil.—Proverbs 27:11.

That is 2 raids per day.  That is insane, but it helps me realize we are Jehovah's people.  Stories like this make me sad but they also strengthen my faith.

I think it is an "identity" thing.  If they showed up in business attire people might think they were Jehovah's Witnesses knocking on their door...

My apologies brother, this situation of our brother(s) there is so abhorrent that it's difficult to find anything amusing to say about this.

 

I'm truly encouraged that Brother Christensen, like other faithful servants maintain a positive disposition despite their difficult circumstances. Imho, he/they are teaching us what to do/say in the future when the persecution starts to spread across the pond as well as in other regions.

 

My prayers continue for them, our Eritrean, Venezuelan and brothers in Turkmenistan.
