A great tribulation involving all mankind will occur before Armageddon. Conditions on earth will be severe and life threatening.

See following scripture:

*** Bible Citations ***

Matt 24:21-22:  "21 for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. 22 In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."

Armageddon will not come when we are expecting it. See following scripture.

*** Bible Citations ***

Matthew 24: 42-44: "42 Keep on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. 43 “But know one thing: If the householder had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have kept awake and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 On this account, you too prove yourselves ready, because the Son of man is coming at an hour that YOU do not think to be it."

(1 Thessalonians 5:1-3) "5 Now as for the times and the seasons, brothers, you need nothing to be written to you. 2 For you yourselves know very well that Jehovah’s day is coming exactly as a thief in the night. 3 Whenever it is that they are saying, “Peace and security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly on them, just like birth pains on a pregnant woman, and they will by no means escape. . ."

 

Just a reminder!!

Patriotic organization in US sets record collecting letters for military personnelBy Christine CremonniPublished 07 July 2016

In the build up to Independence Day many Americans were seen demonstrating their national pride, and the US organisation National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) has set a new record doing so.
 
DAR has officially set the record for the Most letters to military personnel collected in one month with 100,904 letters collected on June 18, 2016 in Washington, DC.
 
Most letters to military personnel collected in one month record
 
Founded in 1890, DAR is a non-profit women’s volunteer service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, education, and historic preservation and this special attempt took place to celebrate the organisation’s 125th Continental Congress, at Constitution Hall.
 
Unequivocally, they chose to do something that would help support the active troops of the United States, and decided to collect support letters to send to the American troops overseas. This was a new record title, with the DAR being the first to attempt it.
 
The original goal was for a 10,000 letter collection, but people from all over the United States kept sending notes in, leading to the massive 100,904 letter collection.

 

i SENT AN OFFICIAL SUGGESTION TO THE GUINNESS OFFICE EXPLAINING THE SITUATION AND GAVE THEM THE WEBSITE JW.ORG FOR MORE INFO. IN CASE THEY WERE NOT AWARE. ONE ISSUE IS WE DON'T HAVE ANY EXACT NUMBER SO THAT MIGHT HINDER IT FROM BEING A RECORD

THAT  WAS  THE  BEST   -   AND  NOT  SOME  WORD'S  IN  A  WORLDLY  BOOK.......     Thats  MY  opinion  to  the  Guinness - Book  theme !  Think  about  that  all  please,  bec.  WE  ARE  JEHOVAH'S  WITNESSES !!   That  book  is  full  of  worldly  records.....

---  We  never  can  get  an  exactly  letter  number,  not  possible ;-))  ---

Jehovah's Witnesses have been in that book before for various things such as "Truth that leads to Eternal Life" and others. Here is what the Watchtower has said about this:

Yup only Jehovah's Spirit could have accomplished an united effort by imperfect people to send out over 48,000,000 letters to Russia. May Jehovah be praised.

FROM BROOKLYN BRANCH OFFICE : May 1976

Branch Letter
Dear Kingdom Publishers:
All of us very much enjoy offering the Truth book in the field, and that will be our privilege once again in the month of May. We thought you would enjoy hearing of some of the things that have happened in connection with this remarkable publication.
Since the Truth book was released in the summer of 1968, how many copies have been printed? Eighty million in 92 languages! No other book explaining the Bible even approaches the circulation of the Truth book; in fact, it is mentioned in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Has it helped people to learn the truth? In 1968 the average number of publishers was 323,688 here in the United States; thus far this service year our peak is 577,362. Doubtless the vast majority of the 253,674 who have taken up the service of Jehovah since 1968 were assisted by a study of the Bible with the aid of the Truth book, and that is remarkable indeed.

Indeed our brothers were quite proud to mention it to encourage the entire association of our brothers in the world.

   I agree with you and Jehovah can use even small things to praise him. Unfortunately I am unsure if they will even put it in since we have no authorized number but I did give them the brothers at Headquarters so if they want to they can try and obtain a number. Anyway have a nice evening and pray for our brothers in the morning trial. agape, Bruce

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
