“Our speaker on Sunday gave an awesome illustration with an added visual about us being no part of this world. He brought along this bottle filled with two different oils. Although they are together inside the same bottle, they do not mix with each other. They remain separate. Such a simple and fitting illustration! We have no choice but to live in this world but we do, however, make the choice on whether we get involved in the affairs or mimic the lifestyles of this world. This can be a great visual illustration and point to bring out to a Bible student or just anyone needing encouragement from being beat down by this old system (John 18:36).”

Sorry, but it seems to me how speaker made wrong illustration. First and main reason of all --- you said that bottle is filled with TWO DIFFERENT oils. Here is the answer, Two Different oils. So, oils are already different,  outside the bottle or inside the bottle. He used oils that are made of different substances (numbers of molecules and atoms and  connections  between them).  

But human specie is all the same. If you put people from Africa or those from Asia in North Pole area all of them will feel cold. If you put Christian or Atheist in some temptation, all of them will respond in similar ways.

World is not  black/white always, only sometimes. Most of the time is in colors. 

So, "not to be part of the world" in fact not existing, because all people are the same, making good and bad things and living in interactions with other "oils".

    • The theory had been around since 1945 as the “Wheeler-Feynman AbsorptionTheory” but was proved by experiment only a few years ago.
    • Recent experiments have proved the concept of “advanced” and “retarded” light, which means that each photon emitted from any source, at any frequency is FIRST triggered by the return  signal which goes backwards in time FROM whatever WILL ABSORB IT, at the other end., be it nanometers away, or at the edge of the Universe. The “trigger”, signal is called the “Advanced Photon” You know that as you approach the speed of light, time slows down. AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT, time stops. ON A PHOTON …. time is completely stopped, so a trillion years travel time does not affect it at all. Travel time of a photon from point “A” to point “B” may take 30 billion years, and the return photon (the “Advanced Photon”) Photon that allows it to release may take negative 30 billion years, but to EITHER photon it’s almost instantaneous, except for a few nanoseconds where the photon traveling backwards in time arrives at the local source BEFORE the light leaves the local source. The local photon generated (… say from a candle …) is called the “retarded photon”. Cool, huh?
    • interesting new ability to view photons in action: I'd love for them to try the double slit experiment and observing the behavior with this new camera.  
    • BTK59 …. You gave my statement of fact a “downvote”. If you know that I have written wrongly, it is your responsibility to correct me and set the matter straight.

      Hello, Darlene, I just love your name, I had a cousin named Darline, and had a classmate also named Darlene! It's a pleasure to know another Darlene! Especially a Spiritual Sister! There's some websites, Ministry Ideaz , JW Stuff.com, and Etsy that I use to order my yearly buttons for the Conventions! They always send me what I order, and their also Jehovah's Witnesses, that send us the merchandise we order!  You can check out these websites, and they might have what your looking for! I hope I have been helpful in assisting you, Darlene! Agape love, Shirley!😀
