Tamarindo, Puente Nacional.- Con el tema ¡No se rinda!, se llevó a cabo la asamblea de los Testigos de Jehová 2017, la cual busca fortalecer la educación religiosa de los miembros y aprovechar con cerca de 18 mil agremiados un punto de encuentro y convivencia entre ellos. Asimismo reconocieron el incremento de la violencia e inseguridad en el estado, por lo que llamaron a los ciudadanos a mantener la calma.

“A nosotros se nos reconoce por predicar de casa en casa, entonces estas asambleas son una forma de instruirnos por medio de la Biblia para alimentarnos en el sentido espiritual y convivir con los compañeros e invitados”, indicó Jehú García Mejía, responsable de prensa en la zona de Xalapa.

Este tipo de asambleas se realizan cada año y tienen una duración de mes y medio, en las que se recibe de viernes a domingo a miembros de diferentes partes del estado de Veracruz. Este fin de semana se concentraron principalmente familias provenientes de Xalapa, Orizaba, Martínez de la Torre, Huatusco y alrededores.

Las temáticas que se abordaron en estos tres días fueron lecciones bíblicas con exhortaciones a no desistir en la fe, discursos sobre la predicación del evangelio de casa en casa, lectura bíblica, videos con testimonios de miembros, películas con mensajes bíblicos, así como cánticos y oraciones.

En total este año se programaron ocho asambleas, en las que cada fin de semana confluyó alrededor de 2 mil 500 asistentes, lo que da un total de afluencia de 18 mil agremiados de distintas partes del estado.

García Mejía comentó que otra de las actividades que destacan en este tipo de asambleas son los bautizos de los miembros para convertirse de manera formal en Testigos de Jehová, en la que una vez siéndolo asumen las responsabilidad de compartir las enseñanzas de las escrituras en todas las áreas de su vida, con compañeros de la escuela y trabajo, además de hacer recorridos de casa en casa.

Destacó que este tipo de asambleas se llevan a cabo en todo el mundo, a través del Cuerpo Gobernante de los Testigos de Jehová desde hace más de 50 años, pues este movimiento tiene en promedio alrededor de 8 millones de agremiados en varios países.

Por su parte Gerardo Cervantes Alfaro, anciano de la congregación, enfatizó que el principio fundamental de esta organización es instruir a las familias por medio de una labor social y altruista, ya que los cursos bíblicos que imparten en hogares son completamente gratuitos.

“Seguimos el ejemplo de Jesucristo, quien se dedicaba a predicar de casa en casa sin pedir nada a cambio, por eso hacemos lo mismo, a la par de esforzarnos por llevar una vida ejemplar (…) La mayoría tiene una Biblia en su hogar, pero nadie la lee, entonces lo que hacemos nosotros es motivarlos a que la estudien y aprendan las enseñanzas”, sostuvo.

Sobre la violencia e inseguridad que aqueja al estado, Cervantes Alfaro exhortó a la ciudadanía a tener esperanza y llevar una vida más espiritual para tener tranquilidad como sociedad.

“Estamos viviendo tiempos muy difíciles, la Biblia lo dice, que habrá aspectos muy críticos de manejar. Ante estas situaciones hay que evitar el temor y acercarse más a Dios, hacer oraciones y darnos cuenta que sólo él nos puede ayudar”, mencionó.

Añadió que como iglesia tienen una apertura para recibir al resto de las personas, sin discriminaciones o imposiciones, pues reconocen que lo principal es el amor al prójimo.

“Nuestro principal objetivo está basado en la Biblia, no en una religión. Nosotros somos una organización que atiende a la gente sin distinciones de pensamiento o preferencia de ningún tipo. Recibimos a la gente no por sus acciones, sino por su persona; aceptamos a todo tipo de ciudadanos”, manifestó.

    • 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.)
