Bible Speaks

Â

Draw Close to God “O Jehovah, . . . You Know Me” “NO GREATER burden can be borne by an individual than to know no one cares or understands.”* Can you relate to those words? Have you ever felt that no one cares about or understands what you are going through, let alone how you feel? If so, you may find comfort in this: Jehovah cares so deeply about his worshippers that he takes note of all that happens to them as they go about their daily life. DavidÂ’s words at Psalm 139 assure us of this truth. •Psalms 143:5–7,10 —"I remember the days of old; I meditate on all your activity; I eagerly ponder over the work of your hands. I spread out my hands to you; I am like a parched land that thirsts for you. Do answer me quickly, O Jehovah; My strength has come to an end. Do not hide your face from me, Or I will be like those going down into the pit. Teach me to do your will, For you are my God. Your spirit is good; May it lead me on level ground." • •For Answers To Life's Hardest Questions Go To JW.org. •Learn More About The Bible & its Teachings FROM The BIBLE itself By Visiting JW.org

Sister Baptized at 105 years old! Congratulations ?. Had the beautiful privilege today to witness a 105 year old sister get baptized and dedicate her life to Jehovah. After many, many years of opposing the truth she became God's loyal servant just like apostle Paul. It just shows how true this scripture is: Psalms 71:18 18 "Even when I am old and gray, O God, do not abandon me. Let me tell the next generation about your power and about your mightiness to all those who are to come." Video shared by @full_of_vivi from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Tap on Video Link mp4 _______ ???

Believing in God is a crime? In Russia, Yes! The Washington Post, United States Can faith in God be considered a crime? Does the government have the right to interfere in this area? Those who are not indifferent to issues of freedom of religion should pay serious attention to Dennis Christensen's trial, which began on Tuesday in Orel. It turns out that in Russia people are persecuted for their beliefs and religious views. Dennis Christensen, a 46-year-old citizen of Denmark, has already spent 11 months in the detention center. Now he faces a trial on charges of organizing a community of "Jehovah's Witnesses" (an organization banned from the territory of the Russian Federation - ed.), Which Russia has recognized as an "extremist organization". If proven guilty, Christensen can be sentenced to 10 years in prison. Last year, the Supreme Court of Russia recognized the Jehovah's Witnesses as an "extremist organization" and banned their activities throughout the country. At that time, the organization had around 170 thousand members and 395 communities. Christensen's next trial is a direct result of the court's decision. The Ministry of Justice previously recognized the religious organization as "a threat to the rights of citizens, public order and public safety." How, then, Mr. Christensen, disrupts public order and tranquility in the sermon, which he pronounced May 25, 2017, during the service, "Jehovah's Witnesses" in the city of Orel, on 230 miles from Moscow? According to the human rights organization Human Rights Watch, Christensen is accused of "actively participating in the activities of a community recognized as an extremist organization." In all likelihood, Christensen opened the door of the community building where the services were performed and then the police appeared. In recent months, police raids were also carried out that led to accusations in Kemerovo, Belgorod and Taganrog. Actually extremism in "Jehovah's Witnesses" services - no more than that of the Russian Orthodox Church, a close collaborator of President Vladimir Putin and his despotic regime. But the state does not recognize Jehovah's Witnesses. They refuse to serve in the army, do not participate in elections and consider the Lord God as their only pastor. The members of the organization were persecuted and persecuted in Soviet times. In his recent speech to the Council of the Russian Federation, Putin said that Russia should "expand the area of freedom" and "to strengthen institutions, civil society organizations and courts," as well as "be a country open to the world." , new ideas and initiatives. " If Mr. Putin really believed in the above, he would stop the illegal prosecution of Christensen and his peers. It would be explained to the courts, so that they read more closely article 29 of the Russian Constitution, which reads as follows: "Everyone is guaranteed freedom of conscience, freedom of religion, including the right to profess, individually or jointly with others, any religion or any religion, to freely choose, possess and disseminate religious and other beliefs and act in accordance with them.

Thank you Jehovah for the Cheetah Baby Cubs! They will learn much from their parents in the wild. One day, we may play and enjoy their company! Jehovah will save the Cubs! ??? When cheetah cubs are two months old they are irresistible to watch. Siblings are sparring partners around the clock. But the odds against their survival are not as appealing. More than half of all cheetah cubs do not survive their first four weeks of life and most of the rest do not make it beyond their first year. Cheetahs can’t climb trees like leopards, they canÂ’t dig burrows like hyenas, and theyÂ’re not social like lions, so they are always vulnerable no matter where they are. We cheered on this family as they were navigating the difficult challenges of life in the wild. Follow us @FransLanting and @ChristineEckstrom to see more playful cheetahs.  Photo by @FransLanting  #Cheetah #BigCats #BigCatsInitiative #CheetahConservationFund #Panthera #Endangered #Cute #Play

My father Karl Behnke is a regular pioneer in San Diego county (also an elder in Lakeside East congregation) and full-time caretaker for my Mom who has impaired mobility due to a stroke. He took the train up to visit my husband and I for a long weekend away while my siblings help out with my Mom. He witnessed on the train of course, got to go with me on my bible study, and this morning shared cart duty with my husband at the BART station in Pleasant Hill CA. He is 79 years young, faithful and diligent in his favorite work, preaching the good news of the kingdom. @onesmartfilly thank you

When will you rise up from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumbering, A little folding of the hands to rest, 11 And your poverty will come like a bandit, And your want like an armed man."

GOD HAS A TATTOO ON HIS HAND, HAVING A TATTOO IS NOT A SIN” – EVANGELIST JOYCE MEYER DEFENDS TATTOOS, SAYS SHE MIGHT ALSO GET ONE MARCH 31, 2018 GOSSIPMILLNIGERIA11 COMMENTS During a recent conference, American Christian speaker and evangelist Joyce Meyer made a biblical case for getting tattoos and admitted she has been thinking of getting one herself just to shut the mouths of religious people. The video clip posted by Joyce Meyer Ministries kicked off with Meyer explaining the difference between being holy and religious. “Holiness is not legalism,” Meyer declared. She went on to explain that religious people have made a mess of holiness by putting a bunch of rules and regulations on people. She listed drinking, dancing, wearing makeup and more among those rules. Meyer, who owns several homes and travels in a private jet (currently a Gulfstream G-IV), has been criticized by some of her peers[who?] for living an excessive lifestyle. She responded that she doesnÂ’t have to defend her spending habits because “…thereÂ’s no need for us to apologize for being blessed.”[11] Meyer commented, “You can be a businessman here in St. Louis, and people think the more you have, the more wonderful it isÂ…but if youÂ’re a preacher, then all of a sudden it becomes a problem.” In November 2003, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch published a four-part special report detailing MeyerÂ’s “$10 million corporate jet, her husbandÂ’s $107,000 silver-gray Mercedes sedan, her $2 million home and houses worth another $2 million for her four children,” a $20 million headquarters, furnished with “$5.7 million worth of furniture, artwork, glassware, and the latest equipment and machinery,” including a “$30,000 malachite round table, a $23,000 marble-topped antique commode, a $14,000 custom office bookcase, a $7,000 Stations of the Cross in Dresden porcelain, a $6,300 eagle sculpture on a pedestal, another eagle made of silver bought for $5,000, and numerous paintings purchased for $1,000 to $4,000 each,” among many other expensive items – all paid for by the ministry. The articles prompted Wall Watchers (a Christian nonprofit watchdog group) to call on the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to investigate Meyer and her family. Following the adverse publicity about her lifestyle and Ministry WatchÂ’s request for an IRS probe, Meyer announced in 2004 plans to take a salary reduction from the $900,000 per year she had been receiving from Joyce Meyer Ministries (in addition to the $450,000 her husband received) and instead personally keep more of the royalties from her outside book sales which Meyer had previously donated back to Joyce Meyer Ministries. She now retains royalties on books sold outside the ministry through retail outlets such as Walmart, Amazon.com, and bookstores, while continuing to donate to her ministry royalties from books sold through her conferences, catalogues, website, and television program. “The net effect of all of this,” notes Ministry Watch, “was most likely a sizable increase in the personal compensation of Joyce Meyer and reduced revenues for JMM.” In an article in the St. Louis Business Journal, MeyerÂ’s public relations director, Mark Sutherland, confirmed that her new income would be “way above” her previous levels. Joyce Meyer Ministries says it has made a commitment to maintain transparency in financial dealings, publish their annual reports, have a Board majority who are not Meyer relatives and submit to a voluntary annual audit. On December 18, 2008, this ministry received a “C” grade (71–80 score) for financial transparency from Ministry Watch. Joyce Meyer Ministries was one of six investigated by the United States Senate inquiry into the tax-exempt status of religious organizations by Senator Chuck Grassley. The inquiry sought to determine if Meyer made any personal profit from financial donations, asking for a detailed accounting for such things as cosmetic surgery and foreign bank accounts and citing such expenses as the $23,000 commode mentioned earlier. Grassley also requested that MeyerÂ’s ministry make the information available by December 6, 2007. In her November 29 response to Grassley, Meyer notes that the commode is a chest of drawers. Meyer writes that it was part of a large lot of items totaling $262,000 that were needed to furnish the ministryÂ’s 150,000-square-foot (14,000 m2) headquarters purchased in 2001. She said the commodeÂ’s price tag was an “errant value” assigned by the selling agent and apologized for “not paying close attention to specific ‘assigned valuesÂ’ placed on the pieces.” Joyce Meyer Ministries responded with a newsletter to its e-mail list subscribers on November 9, 2007.

This served to counteract any idolatrous practices and taught due regard for GodÂ’s creation.—Le 19:28 TRULY, this lady is out of her mind and she, obviously, not a person that know GOD.
