WHAT YEAR WHERE YOU BAPTIZED? I was 1968.

Oh my goodness, thank you! I have never seen this list; how awesome! Thank you so much for the share!   (my own baptism...1971)

Our Librarian posted that full list in the past too !  Its awesome, yes. 
My baptism was in Dec.1997

1989 .....

Penny: Is it not a joy to see the growth in Jehovah's Organization and grow with it! I was born in the Truth, but got baptized at 13. I have a long heritage in the Truth! We value everything we have and more! Thank you Jehovah!
Agape,
Bible Speaks 
???

Thank you so much for the list of year texts. We were baptised 31/12/83.  Jehovah is such a loving Father. I was a very vicious DNC till 2 little girls aged 12 and 10, with 3 scriptures answers my question I had asked the clergy for years. This shows how important it is to train our young ones to know their Bible. 

Karlie: Jehovah gives us the strength and courage to do impossible, I had a man that did not teach the children, I taught by example not to disrespect his headship. Today I am blessed with four children who love Jehovah, one at Wallkill Bethel, one a Elder, one a MS Servant, my daughter a Pioneer and her husband an Elder. We can't make them choose Jehovah, just do what you can, plant that seed, and ask Jehovah to help its growth! May Jehovah Bless you, Bible Speaks ???

Gracias por esa relación. Me bautice en 1967, hace 50 años. Se dice fácil pero no lo es. Jehova siempre ha estado presente en mi vida. 

Mark 13:10 good year remember it well

One of my most favorite verses. Yellow roses mean friendship in the U.S.A. (James 2:23)

When the love for Jehovah fills the heart, faith is strengthened and nothing is unattainable. Such a beautiful and inspiring experience that you've shared with us all/ Thank you once again Queen Esther.

YES....  you  are  right,  dear  sister  Martha !   I  full  agree  with  your  comment...

You  are  welcome...  sister  Ma Ai 

When the love for Jehovah fills the heart, faith is strengthened and nothing is unattainable. Such a beautiful and inspiring experience that you've shared with us all/ Thank you once again Queen Esther.

From what I read in the posting, one can read the nano chip only with a microscope. The real point is that to benefit from God's Word, we need to be able to read it. Might nano chips of the Bible become widespread and available to the average person? I don't know. But, it's certainly amazing!

"He will be like a tree planted by streams of water,
A tree that produces fruit in its season,
The foliage of which does not wither.
And everything he does will succeed." (Psalm 1:3) NWT

“Praise Jehovah from the earth, . . . you young men and also you virgins, you old men together with boys.” (Psalm 148:7, 12)

“The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame.You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” Isaiah 58:11 

11 But the meek will possess     the earth,
And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace."
(Psalm 37:11)

Our  normal  big  Bible....

DID  you  EVER  see  the  tiniest  Bible  of  the  world?

The entire text of the Hebrew Bible is etched onto a microchip!
The Nano Bible is a gold-coated silicon chip smaller than a pinhead,  and contains all 1.2 million letters of the bible.
As part of its yearlong 50th anniversary celebration, the Jerusalem-based Israel Museum will display the “Nano Bible,” the world’s smallest bible, an Israeli innovation created at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology.
The tiny bible will be displayed alongside the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Aleppo Codex, a manuscript of the Jewish bible from 10th century C.E. The Nano Bible is a gold-coated silicon chip smaller than a pinhead. It is 0.04 square millimeters, and 0.00002 millimeters (20 nanometers) deep. The 1.2 million letters of the bible were written using a focused ion beam generator that shot gallium ions onto a gold surface covering a base layer of silicon.
Prof. Uri Sivan and Dr. Ohad Zohar of the Technion’s Russell Berrie Nanotechnology Institute developed the idea, and the engineers of the Technion’s Sara and Moshe Zisapel Nanoelectronics Center were responsible for the manufacturing of the chip and the development of the software that allows the engraving of the letters.
The Israel Museum will also exhibit a documentary on the creation of the Nano Bible and will enable the reading of the biblical text under a microscope.
I  LIKE  THE  BIBLE - BOOK  OR  MY  iPad  for  reading  ;-)
 

12 For the word of God is alive and exerts power+and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints from the marrow, and is able to discern thoughts and intentions of the heart." (Hebrews 4:12) With Jehovah and his Holy Spirit God's Word lives! Never under estimate what Jehovah's words can do. Even trash men have found the Truth from finding literature in the Rubbish. The angels and Jehovah with his Holy Spirit are searching the righteous and the wicked. May everything and everyone find God's word and find life!  IMG_3024.MP4
