Both of you said the same to each other but which one has a record of bad behaviour? I would be able to listen to you much more if you were not so consumed with anger by the smallest triviality and go on to revile anyone who does not agree with you or dares to point out that you are being rude. We all have personal flaws - that is obvious - but your lashing out makes it very hard for me personally to take you seriously because any communication with you becomes a very unpleasant experience. Do you know the science experiment with mice? When a big mouse plays with smaller ones, and he wins all the time and does not let them win now and then..... then they avoid him..... they no longer want to play with him. There is a lot one can learn from a mouse- brain.

Interesting..... I will watch out for this development in India in the news reports. I do know that Putin has already informed PM Mohdi that some of the Indian students, who were studying in Ukraine, have been collected and are being used as human shields. Apparently they have 5 universities which specialize in foreign students... from Africa and India. I would like to add that since JWs do not take up arms or defend themselves they most probably will be termed as having ' bystander effect'. The reason being that Jehovah says : 13 Then Moses said to the people: “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and see the salvation of Jehovah that he will perform for you today. Because we follow the instruction in the bible and carry no arms the coalition of nations will come up against the people of God because it seems as if they have no protection and can be plundered. Ezekiel 38: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah says: “On that day when my people Israel are dwelling in security, will you not know it?q 15 You will come from your place, from the remotest parts of the north,r you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly, a vast army. I will bring my judgment against him* with pestilencey and bloodshed; and I will rain down a torrential downpour and hailstonesz and firea and sulfurb on him and on his troops and on the many peoples with him.c 23 And I will certainly magnify myself and sanctify myself and make myself known before the eyes of many nations; and they will have to know that I am Jehovah.’

This country has been linked to the dollar exchange rate since the 1970's but the dollar is also failing due to the fact that Saudi Arabia has made a deal with.... wait for it... Russia. They are now bargaining on being protected by Russia.... no longer USA. What puts USA in a further bad spot is the fact that they are importing some of the fuel from Russia - which is going to skyrocket fuel prices in USA. Biden , in accord with Agenda 2030 has not given permission for new fuel lines and has closed down some in USA.

It is all about the great financial reset: the future one world government of the UN and WEF. The dollar is on the verge of collapse and with a "Russian" cyber attack it will be plausible reason to blame Russia for its woes and when people are suffering financially they will be ready for any new suggestion to stave off the pain. The central banks of Europe are apparently not doing well and when Germany is cut off from Russian energy supply, their industry sector will suffer and it may start the Euro downward spiral. Russia has its own equivalent of SWIFT which it uses with China and Iran. This war was instigated by the globalists because they want the money system to collapse. (This does not mean that Russia itself is not a bad player - all politics is ruthless and does not care who it hurts in the process as the wars in the middle east has proven). Russia has sold its dollars and is still invested in Euro and about 2,000 tons of gold. China apparently has double that amount of gold but is not letting on. It seems the new exchange currency may become the yuan. Economic downturn will lead to suggestions of the UN to broker the peace and introduce a new monetary system. We know UN will rule for only one hour and in this hour it will force all to get its mark and worship it and will not tolerate dissent. I think it is in this time it will turn against religions - only a uninformed guess.

Speculating on prophecy in peace is better that to continually pull other people apart and looking for unchristian spats. I usually ignore you now but thought I must just tell you that you are looking for spats all the time - a genuine troll!

Putin has requested these three requests for a peace settlement: “the recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea the fulfillment of the tasks of demilitarizing and denazifying the Ukrainian state and ensuring its neutral status.”

I think many people who have an ax to grind with enemies will shoot each other during chaos. I am not naïve as to the capabilities of lawless people.

There is only one king at a time which represents this king "“In the time of the end". Germany hated Jehovah's people, thereafter Russia relentlessly persecuted Jehovah's people. The king of the south was firstly : Britain (the 7th head of the wild beast that received a sword stroke -), in order to continue with the war they needed USA to enter the war and then the Lusitania was conveniently sunk.

The security of Russia was threatened. Russia has asked several times for negotiations about this but he never received an answer. (Sound familiar?) Not only were continually bombing his neighboring states but apparently there were hostile airplanes doing nuclear maneuvers 14 km from his borders (not in western press). There is already calls for the UN to take this up and please broker a peace and UNITE the world!. I guess they will want Putin to capitulate some things. This will bring us closer ever closer to the New world order dispensation of Klaus Schwab and WEF

A long time ago I researched the Book of Abraham. It uses an "adapted" picture from a Book of the DEAD and the funerary text which was found with a mummy/ Joseph smith only bought this papyri and then pretended that he received "devine help' to translate it. Later the papyri was said to have burnt (in a fire that was deliberately set). About the translation: Wikipedia has a highlighted paragraph which you can read here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Abraham#:~:text=Church leadership traditionally described the,of the book of Abraham". It also tells that they found some of the texts that he was supposed to have translated and what

Agreed = I have the same sentiments. My mother, when close to her 80s used to reread Agatha Christy because she said she could not remember how they ended BUT as you say it is sometimes the emotional and intellectual journey to get from point to point in a drama that makes it good!

The king of the North was not visible after the destruction of Jerusalem. The King of the north and South was very visible as part of the Greek empire until the last King of the North - Rome (which actually also gained control of Egypt (Julius Caesar and mark Anthony). The bible then mentions the "exactor (Augustus) and the despised one - Tiberius Caesar during the impalement of Jesus. The King of the North appears again after Jesus was crowned and a visible people of Jehovah would be on earth that renders pure worship. The Slave were approved in 1919. (For the sake of history we must look where the King of the North came from before 1914 as he had to come from somewhere.) Germany was unified into one country - the city states amalgamated. They grew into a industrial powerhouse and eventually the eldest grandson of queen Victoria, Wilhelm 2, came up against the king of the south (Anglo-american world power). This Great wat and WW2 forged England and USA into a dominating power. Of course there was much maneuvering behind the scenes. Now we have the pushing of south and the north in the same fashion they have done for decades. CIA still toppling governments in color revolutions and shenanigans of legitimate regime changes... bringing chaos and extreme corruption in its wake. They have fleeced Ukraine and are using her as a pawn with no intention to help except send weapons to turn this into an Afghanistan (maybe) or get Putin to play ball with the New world Order. He attended klausch schwab (Young leaders indoctrination school), but he is a lover of nationalism and want to keep his nation separate from the NWO. China will take Taiwan but will get away with it (I think) since they are the darling of the UN. The UN are now negotiating a new agreement to give WHO (UN) full powers over all the world health.... all countries will be forced to adhere. America has signed. We will see how far they get with NWO. Putin - will he capitulate or remain separate as King of the North? We will see.

Apologies.

True, he only intervened in human affairs when his future purpose was in jeopardy such as when he warned Joseph that Jesus' life was in peril. Jehovah does not as a rule take control of human affairs but does work towards his goal when he has prophesied events such as the prophecy concerning Cyrus. Cyrus was anointed by Jehovah for a certain job...... to send Israel back and build the temple. Jehovah gave him special capabilities in order for him to unite all the tribes of the Persian empire almost overnight. There was NO empire and them there was one. It is in prophecy that the king of the North as this time (Germany) would act against the nation of God and also that he would not prevail.... But it is also prophesied that the League of nations (which went into the abyss at start of WW2), would again re-appear and get life blown into it from the Anglo-American world power as the UN (image of the beast). Rev 13:15. Consequently, Jehovah does not step into human affairs to help us because humans (Adam) chose independence from God and self-rule without his "good and bad". God has allowed humans to rule the earth without Him to prove that humans cannot rule the earth successfully when they do not follow his moral guidance. If God acts like a fairy godmother and fixes all problems as the occur, then he will be helping the renegade governments and in the process destroy his own case that humans cannot rule successfully without Him.

Jehovah is the judge of us all - Titus 1:15 15 All things are clean to clean people; but to those who are defiled and faithless, nothing is clean, for both their minds and their consciences are defiled. There were many wars in the past, as you mentioned, but this one at present involves one of the players mentioned in the Bible.......... I compare it to the Christians who fled to the mountains in 70CE. While there, they kept alert to the news when Rome would come back ...... not just out of curiosity but because they firmly believed in the prophecy given by Jesus. So, I do not neglect prophecy but keep looking to understand.

One can sleep in it if you must but a case of beer don't go far

I agree with you totally - but an opinion does not necessarily express sympathy for one side or the other side. Most of it is just to find clarity about the background of what is going on. We are still in this world and cannot go out of it. I am not prepared to watch movies all day (my eyes are too bad) or do internet field service for 14 hours solid.... I do not have that number of contacts. So please tell me what I can do with my time? I am a pensioner and apart from a walk on the beach, some cleaning and preparation of food and bible reading ..... I need to do some things. I used to sing opera and make dresses and knit..... but now my eyes have become too bad and the voice a little rusty.... so I like to watch how Jehovah's prophecies are going into fulfillment. ... I do not suggest that you take ANY sides in this conflict.... that is showing favor to one of the sides of the Beast. As the GB have shown - we must not take our eyes of the promises of Jehovah and try to develop the qualities of Jesus - keep our eyes focused on Him. But it is natural to want to understand what is going on around you.

No - not true. If you read our publications it was Germany before Russia. Germany stopped the preaching work and put Jehovah's people in prison. There is a separate prophecy which deals with the incarceration of the GB in prison- which happened in the realm of the King of the South.

The first revolution was a color revolution (orange revolution) - CIA has orchestrated many of these across the world. They also changed the regime again at the last election with puppets in power. The extreme corruption came when George Soros opened his NGO to "fight" corruption. The shenanigans of president Biden and his son in Ukraine is absolutely shocking but this was covered up. What I learn from this is that ALL human government is absolutely corrupt and will stoop at nothing that is in their way. Human laws are made to be broken when the top echelons of society are forcing their will on the people. Honest men are fired and people are secretly killed or suicided. Ukraine has been stolen of all their riches. Putin is justifying this war - and while he has more than enough evidence and good reason to distrust the West - we know he represents the king of the North and will get a message from the remote north and east (Jehovah and Jesus) and go out to annihilate... (most probably together with his allies).....before he comes to his demise.... but this will happen at jehovah's time when the West and King of North have both reached the point where Jehovah decides - now is the time. It has been 70 years now that the UN has been identified as the image of the beast. With perestroika the west was fooled just as they have been with China's sudden capitalism....... but it is 'stakeholder capitalism".....and China and USA elites have their money interwoven in the west..... even Putin has money hidden in the west. Does anyone here need any more confirmation that we are at the end of the end times? It may still be a year or three - in which very much can happen. All I do know is that they are planning digital identity documents for all nations in the west and have been forcefully jabbing people in the poorest regions of the world such as a province in India. They want to keep track of all the billions in Africa and India so they can control the environment and who may eat what .

I think you do not understand the Bible prophecies then. I can only urge you to not put too much emphasis on your own opinions and wisdom and do a more in depth study of the bible. JWs have more than adequate material online for you to look at. I do not want to get into a debate right now about this. I liked your little video but I saw the hopelessness on the part of the cows to take up their weapons.... Just like all revolutionaries, they burnt their own food in the protests ..... similar things I have seen in Africa. In the end they were still slaughtered. It should have taught you a lesson. We cannot get ourselves out of bad situations with violence. Violence begets violence. ... as as clear in the video.

No - in your home you may try to talk to a perpetrator and get out of a bad situation (I have done it while in field service). But taking a gun with intention to use it (because it can be fatal), is NOT following the loving teachings of Christ. On the other hand - to join a national / political army - which has the function of killing at the command of another person who is following government orders (without personal discrimination) is taking sides with the beast.

Russia has seen a revival of religion and family values - Alexander Dugan is the phylosopher that they all were careful of 20 years ago because he said that Russia must rebuild her history and national character through their tradition of religion. Now, the government listens to him. Putin led the nation back to "God" and many have joined the cult of nationalism in quasi-membership of the church. And since Putin believed he was "chosen" , it is not strange that he could think he is on this world to lead the Russian nation to victory and glory under himself - and he will be the hero-savior of it all.

Please stop playing the victim. You bully and insult and pick fights an then accuse and play victim..... what a playbook!

Joseph had proof that Jehovah was with him - he said to his brothers that Jehovah sent him ahead of them. Daniel was a district governor for Nebuchadnezzar; Ester served as queen to save her people (also by Jehovah's hand). IN those days one had to get on with the Job. They were faithful worshipers of Jehovah and kept faithful to his laws (like being honest and not coveting and serving only the one true God) and this helped them in their jobs and brought glory to Jehovah. When Jesus came he taught is principles and self-sacrificing love. We are under these now and understand the principle of neutrality which especially applies to the beast and the image of the beast. Those who have its mark will not receive everlasting life.

Here is an article which explains the background history of Ukraine and the legal entanglements involved. https://wp.me/p4s7Yf-diN
