Arauna reacted to 2puddlez in Results of Armageddon
What is 'Jehovah's Early Organisation'? Is it something new to Jehovah' Earthly Organisation? If so, I must have missed the change.

Arauna got a reaction from JW Insider in Did Jewish Scribes Remove the Name of God from the Greek New Testament Manuscripts?
I have not seen anyone mention the 'Master' copies of the Bible. These are copies that were made by scholars who compared the "extant" manuscripts, vellums, papyri and codices of the bible and made footnotes regarding any variations or alterations in the various extant texts. This is how we know that the Bible has come down to us accurately because the variations are few and the alterations are verified by comparing extant documents. The Greek scriptures of the New World Translation was originally done from the reputable Master copy of "Westcott and Hort." Read more about the comparison of extant documents here: http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1200002893#h=15:0-15:1056
Read more about the Paleography: http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/102008047.
I must add: when one studies the internal logic of the core message of the bible and the fact that Israel was the first nation to serve a monotheistic god (while the rest of the world were polytheists) then one comes to the natural conclusion that this YHWH is a remarkable god and he has been working on a project which eventually will resolve all of mankind's problems. He has allowed man to rule the earth to prove that we cannot rule successfully without his moral direction. Adam and Eve chose independence from his right to choose "good and bad" for us. Look, the nations at present more divided than ever and they will not cooperate together to get our problems resolved. The final outcome of what happens to this earth and the life on it, is closely tied up with the name God chose for himself: JHWH - I shall prove to be / he causes to become. The new world translation 2013 has the name inserted in the new testament in a few places not indicated in ancient documents but in the talk the brothers made when they presented this new bible to us they gave the reasons why they did this. Go and research this for yourselves.

Arauna got a reaction from JAMMY in Thank you all for you encouraging tweets and also the informative ones about the wicked Muslims...
What is wonderful about being 'neutral' about human governments and active for the real government of Jehovah (and being cautious and at peace with everyone) is that one can see the political activities of Babylon the great (world empire of false religion) in the political arena.
So many religions are becoming violent and are being "worked up in their emotions" towards other religions and their governments......(which may eventually bubble over to people killing each other ....but the governments will put in "peace and security" measures to keep the peace). Buddhists are killing Muslims as we speak; Hindi culture has been declared the national culture in India by the far right government; and we already know that extreme Islam (with its terror tactics to force all people to become Muslims) is clearly visible for all to see. When Christians in America fight the government to bring in laws that reflect their Christian views - they are also being political. Most of them love the NRA which protects their right to bear arms... and they may even use them in future... Jesus never used any arms and chastised those who did (Peter).
Jehovah is preparing us to go through Armageddon so we can truly stay neutral regarding human institutions. However, more of us will have to learn to be verbally 'cautious' when preaching because people in future will become more prone to take offense - some may even become violent. I wish to speculate that our freedom of "speech" may be curtailed in future (UN is already regularly tabling decisions to this affect but it has not been voted in yet) - when one will not be allowed to say anything about another person's religion because they can use it as a reason to persecute you. People may call the cops when they feel you are using "hate speech' against their religion. This will make our preaching work so much harder.
At present hate speech is viewed as saying something nasty about another religion (even if it is true) but it eventually may become hard to say anything - even if one tries to tactfully expose false religion.

Arauna got a reaction from JAMMY in Last night, @DonaldJTrumpJr said @HillaryClinton “is a risk Americans can’t afford to...
It is interesting to see the exaggerated filth being slung about. Mr. Trump though is a nominee that has not released his
TAXES.... wonder what he is hiding.... Whatever candidate wins - they are going to make grave mistakes because it is getting harder to traverse the international political scene - and Satan is blinding the eyes of the leaders..... they are being drawn out ... and the propaganda has reached levels never seen before at all levels (the three frogs in Revelation).
The harlot is riding the beast as we speak. Resolution 18-20 of the United nations Human Rights Council has been accepted: "hate speech" against religion is not acceptable but the definition of hate speech is not there... So Facebook, Twitter is already working with the government to veto anything suspicious (even if it is the truth) in religion.....False religion does not want to be exposed....... but religion will cause so much problems that a coalition of rulers will turn against all religion in the sense that "recruiting" will be banned because it is posing a "security" threat. This will affect out peaceful preaching work..... We are getting closer to the end .... we just do not know how close.

Arauna got a reaction from JAMMY in Mosque burnt down in suspected arson attack in Toulouse https://t.co/EhN2aGnI32...
Revenge attacks starting.... The governments have been trying to hide the fact that Muslims are responsible for the jihad attacks and their affiliation with Islam because they wanted to avoid the "revenge phenomenon." ALL false religion will now start to show its true colors. Christendom has not taught people to love their enemies as the Bible instructs so many are ready to grab their guns to take revenge.
Religions will cause so much "insecurity" that governments will eventually be forced to take control and turn against religion...

Arauna got a reaction from Queen Esther in “Look up, please, to the heavens and count the stars, if you are possibly able to count them." / Gen. 15:5 - Its really a wonder, the universe & the earth❤
To get serious for a moment::- Our universe is a physical universe, consisting of matter which was created by means of Jehovah's dynamic energy. Jehovah cannot enter into our physical universe because he is too great. He lives in the highest heavens in a spiritual dimension which is unfathomly beyond our physical universe. Our universe is subject to time and space. The dimension where Jehovah lives has no time and space and hence - no matter. We cannot fathom what it is like because it is beyond our comprehension. We can however look at the stars in our part of the physical universe and see the dynamic energy and wisdom of Jehovah. Angels can move through our universe at the speed of light..... but if we (consisting of matter) tried to move at the speed of light - we would disintegrate. We also cannot see Jehovah and live because his energy will instantly kill us. Yea - the earth is truly a little dust particle on a scale and yet Jehovah cares about each individual.

Arauna got a reaction from Queen Esther in In the Bible, God says, I AM JEHOVAH. THAT IS MY NAME. Isaiah 42 : 8, look the pic and the longer text.....
I use Ex 3:15 in field service when I speak to Muslims about Jehovah's name because they accept Moses, Abraham as prophets. The scripture also says that Jahweh is his name from generation to generation...... and no need to explain in what way Jehovah had to make himself known. ... Most Muslims say that Abraham was in Mecca and started the religion there. I also use scriptures to prove that Abraham made an altar to Jehovah and sacrificed to him BEFORE he went to Egypt and how he sacrificed to Jehovah when he RETURNED from Egypt. There is no way he changed the name of his god halfway to Egypt and then changed the name of his God back again when he came back to Canaan.
Mecca was not a city either.... Mecca came into existence as a city after 150 AD when the forefathers of Mohammad came from Yemen. Mohammad tried to legitimize his religion to the Jews in Medina by claiming to come from the line of Abraham (but when they rejected him as a prophet he turned to killing them.)

Arauna reacted to Jim63 in My boyfriend has finally recieved the brand of God
The picture is obviously a "photoshop". No real worshiper of Jehovah would make such a mark on their bodies. The marking of Gods people is a figurative, spiritual marking. Not a literal one. Perhaps the picture could be taken as a kind of warning for us though. We are to be loyal to Jehovah and His son Jesus in the Heavens. As far as the Earthly organization that we are a part of goes... It is merely a slave of our Creator. They only use technology and their imperfect best wits along with sincere prayer and deep Bible study to help us to improve our relationship with Jehovah. Any logos they have made are just that - logos. We don't want to put those logos up on high. They just help us to remember where to find help in learning of Jehovah and His purposes. We need to be careful to not let these logos and media aids (such as the cartoon characters Caleb and Sophia) on the Bible teaching web site jw.org NOT become "images to which we offer worshipful devotion. Imperfect Humans tend to wrongly set up physical icons to represent God. God has said: 'DON'T DO THAT'. That is why Jehovah took Moses' body and buried it secretly... So the Isrealites wouldn't try to make a shrine of Moses' grave. Our devotion is to Jehovah God DIRECTLY. JW.org helps us to do that. WE MUST BE CAREFUL to not render worship to JW.org.

Crystal, maybe you do not understand everything yet. Our circumcision must be in the heart (by holy spirit) - not on our skin. Rom 2:29. Our new Christian personality is the brand mark we must cultivate for the survival of Armageddon. (Ezekiel 9:4)
Love for you my friend.... learn more about Jehovah and study hard to understand everything.
