How would you picture Bible characters if they were modern USA citizens

Maybe I should’ve put this in general discussion. It could either be a fun game or a fun discussion. 

 

If certain Bible characters were born in modern day USA (or any country actually), what kind of life would they be living right now? 

Noah would be a cruise liner captain? LOL :lol1:

Noah: LDC

Abraham Moses, David...: Governing Body

All the prophets: missionaries and for the exhausted older ones: special servants.

All engaged in full-time service anyway.

All the rest, the beautiful anonymous ones noticed by Heaven who look like Ruth, Riz'pah ...: wisely patient, in the congregations, offering their love and gentleness full time.

 

Impossible for me to project them anywhere other than in the Congregation.

I don't know if they'd have your call, maybe


since our times are different, the possibility of their remaining anonymous would be very great and only Jehovah would see the depth of their faith.


We would see spiritual brothers and sisters like we see today in the congregations, that brother who refuses to give his blood to the doctor, the sister who is harassed at school by men, the young man who denies the national flag, etc....


I think that living in the era of the past has broadened the man of faith, but in the end, everyone lives in an era and what should remain is their life experience and their history.....today we could write several books about our brothers and sisters in the congregation, each with their own representative name, perhaps some Lorenzos, Vanessa, Benjamin, Oliver, etc?
