My guess is your phone wrote Isis instead of ICE.  Then I thought about it. Is there really a difference? Hmmm?

 

ISIS = Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. Militant Islamic activists bent on creating and controlling an Islamic state. 

 

ICE = Immigration and Customs Enforcement. One of the federal police agencies in the United States. 

 

Anything else could be taken as a non-neutral expression.

I can imagine this ICE authority turning into the Anti religion enforcement during the GT.


Just my opinion and thoughts. Not being dogmatic but exactly my thinking. I see them as in beginnings of the federal police. Immigration is simply their training for what's to come when they're push local and city PDs aside and going all out.

Zeph 3:17 Jehovah your God is in the midst of you. As a mighty One, he will save. He will exult over you with rejoicing. He will become silent in his love. He will be joyful over you with happy cries....... Love it....a beautiful word picture.

While the methods and tactics would look similar, there would be no need to use ICE or create a new police agency in the US when that time comes. Current police have the authority to arrest and detain criminals. In fact, the police have already been used against religions throughout history.  Not only Witnesses, but other religions and cults have felt the boot of authority. 

 

It's not like they will deport us to another country when we will be outlawed in all countries. 

 

On the other hand, governments love to make new agencies. It's fun, keeps people employed, and gives the populace the impression something is being done. So, yeah, they could easily create a new police agency specifically directed to enforce anti-religious policies.

I removed all the "ICE" posts. I am hoping we can leave that controversial topic alone.

 

Feel free to PM a moderator or start a topic in the Confidential area if you need to discuss this further.

No. I'll go out on a limb and say that, since Canada is part of the British Commonwealth, they will never be part of the King of the North. 

 

And I don't see Canada ever leaving the Commonwealth. 

 

Remember, Britain is part of the King of the South.

Well in that case, the king of the north is connected to Canada.

Yes.   When I pray to Jehovah I remember the ones in prison as we have been encouraged to do.  Now, I include our undocumented brothers and sisters as well.  May Jehovah's spirit rest upon them and may they stay close to him.  ❤️

ICE is starting to remind me of the Coalition @Thomas Walker

 

It's kind of interesting that this could be a preview of how it will be during the GT. While the world has their rebellions and their clashes with authorities, we need to learn to take the peaceable route and use discretion. 

We just dont all details that will happen in the future.
