Africa (Matthew 10:36-39)
''Thanks to Jehovah, I was able to place four Watchtower Magazines in field service to these fine young children and maybe...start a Bible study.. I know these timely magazines will help them more than shoes, food, shelter, medicine,school supplies, and drinking water.''

Satan is "bullying" you through family
by neat blue dog injust thought i'd share this ridiculous picture from a recent watchtower.
in recent years, the word bullying has been thrown around a lot, and often misused by instigators and subtle bullies themselves.
in this picture we learn that your loving family who wants to continue sharing a family tradition with you, who hands you a beautifully wrapped present with a smile on their face, is in fact bullying you.

Another Temptation: Luke 4:2 New International Version
2 where for forty days he was tempted[1] by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.
Satan's temptation and bullying skills must be on the decline. He's lost most of his power.
He was so powerful 2000 years ago... like tempting Jesus with hunger and asking Jesus to jump off a cliff.
Now in the year 2018, he's down to tempting and bullying you with Christmas trees, holiday sweaters, and gifts.

Happy birthday!
Age is just a number!
How is your physical and mental health? Are you still working or retired? Are you active or sedentary? Do you take vacations and enjoy seeing new places? Do you read and associate with people to keep your mind sharp?

9:40 SYMPOSIUM: Future Events That Will Require Courage
The Cry of “Peace and Security!” (1 Thessalonians 5:2, 3)
We all went through this in the 1970's. This scripture was embedded in our brains. What fear we had when Jimmy Carter gave this speech. We didn't think we had much time. Forty years later, they are still using this scare tactic!
Peace and National Security Address to the Nation on Soviet Combat Troops in Cuba and the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty.
October 1, 1979Good evening.
I want to talk with you about the subject that is my highest concern, as it has been for every President.
That subject is peace and the security of the United States.

Notice what Jesus says ( Billy Graham was the complete opposite of Jesus... his whole life was whoring and romancing political figures ):
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.
Matthew 23:27-28
The Sanhedrin was the chief legislative body in Judea and was composed of Sadducees and Pharisees (Acts 23:6). It had political, legislative, judicial and religious functions. Members of the Sanhedrin were the equivalent of the congressmen and senators that represent us today.

And here I thought Jesus said: "You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

The film pulls few punches in its story of the hypocrisy, materialism, and opportunism at the heart of the evangelical world of Bible-thumping barnstorming revival troupes
I think that Billy Graham played this great movie in real life.
