    The Second Coming of Christ...

    by BroRando

    The Fulfillment of Prophecies are 'timed events'. For almost two thousand years, faithful followers of Jesus Christ have been in anticipation of his Second Coming. We are living at extremely exciting times as our Preaching Work comes to its end! According to Bible Prophecy, an allotment of two days of 2,000 years would need to lapse before the Second Coming is revealed to unbelievers. (Hosea 6:2, 2 Peter 3:8) Oh!! If only the ungodly would stop being stubborn, pay attention, listen, and gain the wisdom of understanding to keep on living into Christ's Millennial Reign... "Do not think I came to bring peace to the earth; I came to bring, not peace, but a sword." (Matthe…

Been out for sometime because of going to various locations such as Michigan, Kentucky and recently Washington specifically I only wanted to go to Michigan to visit a grieving family. While traveling I confronted some people, among them 3 JWs. 1 of the 3 people were legitimate JWs, this one was in the Kentucky area whereas some people volunteered to help clean up the area/recover things along with the locals; had a friend down there who was gathering people to help out. However, the other 2 were not JWs, but pretended to b…

    The Last Days... When? 1 2 3 4 10

    by BroRando

    "But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here.  For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal,  having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness,  betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God,  having an appearance of godliness but proving false to its power; and from these turn away."

    Revelation 12 : 6. 1260 days. Revelation 12 : 14. a time and times and half a time. 3½ times = 3½ years, of 360 days Prophetic calender 1 2 3 4

    by Patiently waiting for Truth

    This topic is open to helpful comments and unhelpful insults too I was doing a bit of Bible reading the other day from the book known as Revelation, and reading chapter 12 i was having thoughts and meditation. Rev 12 : 6, mentions the woman going off into the wilderness for 1260 days. REv 12 : 14, mentions the woman being nurished in the wilderness for a time and times and half a time. This = 3½ times. so we divide 1260 days by 3½ which givs us, 360 days. Now that is equal to a 'Prophetic Year' It seems, and i didn't know this before, that prophicy is based on a 360 day year. It also seems that Moses used a 360 day calender. The Egy…

    by Pudgy

    You know, that those who understand clowns real people, just with costumes and make-up, watching the antics of clowns is funny…… Depending on whether or not your taste runs to slapstick humor. The Three Stooges made a living off of slapstick humor, and many became great fans. But for many children, they do not understand what a clown is, and the value in society of having clowns, and so they are deathly afraid of clowns. Clowns scare them. A lot! In a circus, one of the common acts is for a Volkswagen full of clowns to drive into the center ring, and the clowns start piling out of the car. And the clowns come, and the clowns come and the clowns come… And sometim…

    "Bathing" in Pure Worship - GB Samuel Herd

    by Witness

    About ten years ago, my son bought a very old and humble little house that was built with lumber milled from the massive sugar pines of the area. The lumber was gleaned from an abandoned mining town located up the mountain pass, whose heyday lasted for a few short years in the 1860’s. Since the early 1930’s this house had many changes over the years, modestly growing in size as the original family grew. Still, the family’s five children shared one small bedroom. The outhouse was exchanged for indoor plumbing amenities in the 1960’s. Ten years ago, the house received a few new walls, new flooring and new paint. But today, instead of having it leveled to the ground, which…

    What to expect? You can expect a ton of persons to become immediately interested in the Bible, once we stop offering New Bible Studies. The time to think about it a little longer will have come to its end. "And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come." (Matthew 24:14) Jesus in private told his disciples, "For just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. For as they were in those days before the Flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and they took no note until the…

    The preaching work that Jesus Christ started two thousand years ago is now coming to its’ conclusion. Jesus sent his followers to go from house to house by twos. Jehovah's Witnesses share this good news at no cost to you as they are volunteers bearing the brunt of the expenses themselves. As True Christians going from door to door, town to town, city to city, country to country with much opposition, reaching your door took much effort and often times, lives were placed in harms way to bring You the Good News of God's Kingdom. Jehovah Witnesses are well known over the World for their door to door ministry. They don't care about a persons ethnicity because God is no re…

    Saxifraga - Jehovabloempje (Jehovaflower)

    by Guest

    Saxifraga - Jehovabloempje (Jehovaflower) Most flowers have, in addition to an official Latin name, also a common name. That name can be vary country by country. In the extended family the Saxifraga is a small species of flower which grows in the mountains of Europe. In Dutch and German it is called 'Jehovabloempje' and 'Jehovablumchen', translated 'little Jehovah flower'. The person who gave this flower its common name must have thought, when he saw the red spots on the white petals, of the Hebrew consonants of the Divine Name. That is why this little flower carries the great Name of God.

    Are Elders, "gods"?

    by Witness

    Zech. 10:2 – “For the household gods utter nonsense, and the diviners see lies; they tell false dreams and give empty consolation. Therefore the people wander like sheep; they are afflicted for lack of a shepherd.” The term “household gods” refers to the Hebrew word “teraphim”, which means “healer”, a family idol, an image. Teraphim could be rather large and in the shape of a human. They were consulted in divination, and derived from a root word meaning, “comfort”; thus, the teraphim god was a “giver of comfort”. (Gen 31:19; 1 Sam 19:13; Judges 17:5; 18-20; Hos 3:4,5) Their role with the “diviners” of Zech 10:2 can be seen in Ezek. 21:21 - “For the king o…

    FALSE CLAIMS 1 2

    by Witness

    Who is to blame for the false claims? The lawyers, or the eight men who assigned them to take care of business? This should be, but won't be, an embarrassment for every JW to read. No longer is the façade in place. The real face of the organization is being exposed - and that being, God does not own it. Lev. 19:11 - “ ‘Do not steal. “ ‘Do not lie. “ ‘Do not deceive one another." Matt 5:25 - “Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison."

    Is Gerard Gertoux with his 3170bc Flood still in good-standing with Watchtower; and what are the years on publishing, /baptism, /publishing, /DF, /publishing

    Did Gertoux publish 3170bc Flood before JW, during JW, or after being exJW (if he is). Serious analysis and deduction here about character change required by religion for some not others. We all know that Prince Nelson made songs like 2000 ZERO party over so party like it's 1999 and that JWs not only played the song at weddings but also by JW bands. But we also know he wrote songs before becoming a JW as his mother that said We can flukk until the dawn, flukk away til cherry's gone (Erotic City). Supposing forgiveness upon baptism the question is raised whether Gertoux published 3170bc Flood before baptism or after baptism by WT. Meanwhile i was tagged in murmur a…
