  Luke 12:31 Instead, keep seeking his Kingdom, and these things will be added to you. 32 “Have no fear, little flock, for your Father has approved of giving you the Kingdom. 33 Sell your belongings and give gifts of mercy. Make money pouches that do not wear out, a never-failing treasure in the heavens, where no thief gets near and no moth consumes.

  Matthew 5:5 “Happy are the mild-tempered, since they will inherit the earth.

  Revelation 7:9 After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. 10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”

  Wikipedia:

  BRICS is a grouping of the world economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa

  
  In August 2023, at the 15th BRICS Summit, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates had been invited to join the bloc. Full membership will take effect on 1 January 2024.[11][12]

  The BRICS summit was big this year. New member states were added.

  Interesting that they call themselves the Global South. Plain and simple, the King of the South from Daniel's book is in the end time what is called the Global South.

  And the Global North are the countries tied to NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

  North and South.

  Unfortunately the WT organization has got it wrong applying the King of the North to Russia.

  The BRICS view themselves as representatives of the Global South.

  In a recent Chinese youtube news chanel CGTN, they speak about the struggle between the Global South and the Global North. I find it awesome that they use these denominations, because it fits so well on the struggle between the King of the North and the King of the South.

  Here is what Wikipedia has to say about the terms, Global South and the Global North.

  Hello my friends,

  Here are some encouraging scriptures for the day:

  Revelation 21:2 I also saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

  Hebrews 11:10 For he (Abraham) was awaiting the city having real foundations, whose designer and builder is God.

  Revelation 21:24 And the nations will walk by means of its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.

  Revelation 22:1 And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of its main street (of the holy city). On both sides of the river were trees of life producing 12 crops of fruit, yielding their fruit each month. And the leaves of the trees were for the healing of the nations.

  applying jesus' identifying requirements, not one religion qualifies.

  coming close doesn't count.

  I think we can get to know how it's going to be based on Daniel 11:31-45, Revelation 12:13-17 and Ezekiel 38:8-23. But these scriptures are not the only ones about it, because there are more. Daniel 11, Revelation 12, Ezekiel 38

  There will be an attack on at least the WT headquarters, because what else would Daniel 11:31 speak about?

  "they will profane the sanctuary, the fortress, and remove the constant feature. And they will put in place the disgusting thing that causes desolation."

  After that will happen the things written in the following verses 32-45.

  I would expect that the 'removal of the constant feature' ends the "theocratic" activity in the WT organization.

  Instead local brothers and sisters "having insight" (verse 33) will guide. And "many will join them by means of smoth speach" (verse 34).

  How long period are we dealing with here from verse 31 till about the end? Daniel 12:11 “And from the time that the constant feature has been removed and the disgusting thing that causes desolation has been put in place, there will be 1,290 days.

  But some will be happy to escape this time to a remote place, in order that in the end become the target of Gog of Magog.

  Ezekiel 38:8 and Revelation 12 speak about where the symbolic woman flees, to a place prepared by God, where the symbolic woman will be fed spiritually with the truth during 1260 days.

  Especially the latest, pushing Covid vaccines. Before they wrote that brothers should not push on others different medical treatments, because they are personal matters. Now they break their own rules.

  Have they become apostates themselves?

  Yes, Sue2023 I agree that the Jehovah's witnesses as a religion is best compared with other religions who are even more wrong. I tried to get reinstated. I went to meetings in person this year for 6 months. And then 3 elders had a meeting with me to see if I can be reinstated. But our conversation did not go so well. 15 years ago I was disfellowshipped for not agreeing with a couple of the WT organizations teachings and for trying to inform others about it in the congregation. I did it because we should worship Jehovah God in spirit and truth as Jesus said. This time the elders demanded that I answer if I believe that the Governing body is the faithful and discreet slave? I answered that I belive they are a slave giving spiritual food, but they could be in the end the wicked slave. The elders did not like that. I said also that I have decided not to disturb with my own Bible research as long as the Governing body exist. But the elders did not like that, because then I would not be an enthusiastic supporter of the Governing Body. I asked is it enough that I believe in Jehovah God, Jesus Christ and the Bible and in the core doctrines of Jehovah's witnesses. But nope, that was not enough.

  So in my opinion it is time to form a new brotherhood that is better than the Jehovah's witnesses and better than all other churches and religions.

  I hope every vaccinated Jehovah's witness hear this and come to realize that the Governing Body was not a discreet and faithful slave on basis of the vaccine mandates they imposed on elders, bethelites and pioneers.
