Peace and security cry at the end of the wars in Middle East and Ukraine ?

New leaderships maybe required

Particularly on the side of KOTN.

If the Anglo American power will be dominant till Armageddon then KOTN must suffer losses.

It will be interesting to see the development of that issue untill the end.

United Nations state that environmental issues disrupt peace and security 

it’s difficult to maintain it in dire situations of constant draught floods extreme cold or hot. Food can’t grow properly, no homes, disease, hunger, civilian conflicts are more comum is such places.

For UN peace is not just the absence of conflicts 

It has to do with people’s wellbeing welfare.

This is why UN keeps appealing to the clima issues. To ensure also peace 

The UN won't be able to solve the climate issue, we are beyond any limit point from a human perspective.

 

Rev 11:18

I learned in a scoence book that the ocean can absorb more or less carbon dioxide according for the need to keep the ratio good for the environment.

 

If thats not working then its ocean being poisoned killing the beneficial biome of the ocean.

 

Pretty much a lie that its humans and animals breathing.  Just bad management of lazy grredy corporations. Governments. And businesses not doing enough.

 

The brothers on thier own dime without being told spent 250k thirty years ago on a cleaning system in new york Bethel when they use to make printing ink.

Yep, It’s too late to solve the climate issue even if they do, around 2.0C it’s pretty much game over for this system and we are guaranteed 3.0C in our lifetime even if we stop today. Hansen figures 1.7C by 2030.

Yes, it's about inertia, even if we stopped everything right now, the climate would take centuries to fix itself

Environmental issues are the same as LGBTQ issues, it leads to political division. A propaganda that make us more careful not to be involved.

UK to send naval ship to Guyana amid Venezuela border dispute

That's something to think about...

 

War here, in South America, is something that doesn't happen every day. Okay, I know this isn't a war yet, or maybe it won't even become one, but we need to be careful.

 

For me, if wars start in every continent, not as a Third World War, but separate conflict wars, oh boy...

 

I don't even know what I would do, flee the country? Disappear in the country? I live in the capital, and I'm only 20 years old, I would definitely be one of the first to be called up.

As Jesus said, there is no point in becoming anxious for something that may never happen. At the moment there is no war in Brazil and there is no reason to think there will be one.

 

If at some point a war starts there... That's scary but many thousands of Christians have faced that situation and Jehovah gave them the courage and the strength they needed to keep faithful. He will help every one of us too.

C'est une chose à laquelle il faut réfléchir...

 

Ici, en Amérique du Sud, la guerre n’arrive pas tous les jours. D’accord, je sais que ce n’est pas encore une guerre, ou peut-être qu’elle n’en deviendra même pas une, mais nous devons être prudents.

 

Pour moi, si les guerres éclatent sur tous les continents, non pas comme une Troisième Guerre mondiale, mais comme des guerres conflictuelles distinctes, oh mon Dieu...

 

Je ne sais même pas ce que je ferais, fuir le pays ? Disparaître à la campagne ? J'habite dans la capitale, et je n'ai que 20 ans, je serais certainement l'un des premiers appelés.

Wherever you are and whatever your age, Pedro: nothing prevents Jehovah from being at your side, always and forever🧡

It would be interesting if harmaguedon arrive during the world feasts season (between December 25 and January 2). While they would be very distracted and immersed in the celebrations 100%. As in the times of Belshazzarr when they were celebrating in the king's court, the Medes and Persians entered by surprise

only if that feasting had no religious undertones anymore, since religion would have been destroyed by then.

At work, I heard a brother reply to someone's chat today in condemnation of the news of an evangelical leader calling one former leader at a political rally God's chosen one: "It doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. Himself and his evangelical supporters believe it (2Tim. 4:3, 4). Either by accident or incident, If he should ever be allowed to pull levers of power again, I will surmise the “great tribulation” is here (Matt. 24:21). His first term would have been a warning shot, like for Jews in 66 C.E. Russia devoting “many to destruction” will be consistent with that interpretation (Dan. 11:44). It could still be that we ain’t seen nothing yet (Rev. 12:12). Disclaimer: This is personal thinking and a brain fart on world events. I didn’t see that in any vision. I am not the chosen one"…😁😁😁

from above -

 "These reports point towards Iranian involvement in the form of cyber attacks against Israeli infrastructure. If validated, this would mark a severe escalation in the ongoing tensions between the two nations, and a possible new chapter in their history of cyber warfare. The implications of these alleged cyber attacks are far-reaching, raising questions about national security, public safety, and the vulnerability of critical infrastructure."

Here is a different take on what you are thinking: 2 conflicts are raging now that have the King of the North versus the King of the South overtones (Dan. 11). The war in Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict are surrogate wars. Africa has had this for a long time when they were ruled by dictators sowing discords within individual nations. If whatever is going on in your region has this same undertone, I'll be ready (mental preparedness). A witness of Jehovah should always have visions that transcend the present. We were taught when studying for baptism: It will get worse first before it gets better (Rev. 12:12).

[Jimi-L]

Keep calm and trust in Jehovah. When we remember this, there is no need to fear what may happen.


A quote allegedly attributed to Mark Twain, “I've had a lot of worries in my life, most of which never happened”, shows a balanced attitude. 

We demonstrate this best by trusting in Jehovah. Of course, you also have to be realistic about the fact that difficult times may come, but thinking about them in advance is hardly in accordance with the advice of our Lord Jesus himself. (Matthew 6:25, 27)

Fears are rising of a widened Middle East war and US troops are in the firing line

 

 Warnings by Israel that its war against Hamas in Gaza will last for months, despite US pressure for a ratcheting down of the intensity of the conflict, threaten to heighten the chances war could spin out of control and drag the US further in.

  Future incidents in which US soldiers are killed or naval assets are seriously damaged would leave Washington little choice but to get sucked deeper back into the Middle East after the last three presidents tried to disengage from the region.

 

 we expect to “hear of wars and reports of wars.” (Matthew 24:6)

Heard something interesting while watching the effects of Pia in the UK as well as other unbelievable storms on this holiday, narrator said how "hard it's going to impact business of all sorts when this time is usually bustling and profitable". Awwww, Satan's influence is affecting commercialism 😅😅

Despite of profitable days due to holidays, new Indonesian airline plus our own air carrier project a gloomy 2024 brought by climate change, wars, and so on. Even the food crisis is waiting ahead because of super el nino that will hit the water supply for agricultural lands.

The problem is that it's not the big multinationals that are mainly affected. It's the small family businesses that suffer the most, those that rely on passing trade and holiday periods to put bread on their tables and pay their rent.
