ka chap. 17 pp. 342-343 pars. 24-26 - "In this PARABLE the “slave” was not given silver “talents” with which to do business....No sooner did the spiritual “food” become available “at the proper time” on the festival day of Pentecost of 33 C.E., than the appointed “slave” class proved itself “faithful and discreet” by passing out the “food” under the inspiration of God’s outpoured spirit.... At this “proper time” it was that the “faithful and discreet slave” class fed them...26 Less than three and a half years later the feeding efforts of the “faithful and discreet slave” class were extended to other prospective “domestics.”"
I'm certain they will be delighted to learn of this wonderful piece of Bible trivia.

@ Seabreeze - We can't acknowledge that "scripture says that one day a man named God would be born," because it isn't saying that.
Isaiah 9:6 -calls Jesus a "mighty god," not Almighty God."
god, god-like one, mighty one
mighty men, men of rank, mighty heroes
angels
https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/h410/kjv/wlc/0-1/
(John 10:34, 35) ‘I said: “You are gods”’? If he called ‘gods’ those against whom the word of God came—and yet the scripture cannot be nullified..."
(1 Corinthians 8:5, 6) For even though there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,” there is actually to us one God,
Also, if Jesus was GOD ALMIGHTY, why is he only described in Isaiah 9:6 as being the "prince of peace?" Shouldn't he be called the "king of peace?"

Ukraine v England football match

ukraine were backed by 40,000 of their own fans in the tarczynski arena, giving the game the fervent feel of a home fixture as they are unable to play in their own country because of the war with russia.

I'd love to hear the thoughts of all the foreign fighters who have travelled to "help" Ukraine.
I know what I'd be thinking.

Is the conflict with Russia ongoing? If it is, it's good that so many were given time off to watch a game.

The Stock Market - the biggest gambling casino on planet earth!
I'll never forget the look of horror on a zealous pioneer sister's face when I innocently made a comment regarding "the org probably lost a lot of money in the 2008 stock market crash."
She immediately denied the org invested in the stock market, and turned to her husband for confirmation. He did - he confirmed what I'd said was true. The poor woman's face was a picture! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Sign of the Last Days
by Fisherman inin the sermon on the mount, jesus foretold that earthquakes “in one place after another” would be part of the sign of the last days clímaxing in the great tribulation.. what could jesus possibly have meant?
using a phone app nowadays, there are earthquakes detected in one place after another but is this what jesus meant and did they have so many earthquakes throughout the centuries affter his prophecy or are these modern day detected earthquakes unique to this epoch?
how can we be sure unequivocally that modern day earthquakes are part of the sign fulfilling bible prophecy?.

@ Anony Mous - I never said "all" and neither does the scripture. Doesn't have to be "all."
Example - the majority of the world's governments (not all) obeyed the "recommendations" of the unelected W.H.O. during the respiratory virus scenario. You saw how that unfolded!
Guess WHO wants these "recommendations" turned into laws? The E.U. and the UK think it's a good idea!

@ Fisherman & others: "...the sign of the last days..."
Almost 2000 years ago, John wrote, "Furthermore, the world is passing away..." (1 John 2:17)
The day I was born (several decades ago) I began "passing away" - but I wasn't in my "last days."
If a doctor finds signs/proof that I've got a terminal illness which is about to cut me down, then I'll know that I'm in my "last days."
If/when we see Biblical/divine evidence* (not 140 + years of speculation) that the prophesied "last days" have started, the whole world will become aware - not just Christians. (IMO)
* Revelation 17:17 assures Bible readers that the governments of the world will delegate some of their authority & decision making powers to a singular new entity. (something similar to what many non-believers think today. NWO?)

FACT: The "faithful slave" was personally selected in 1919......

as attested to countless times in decades worth of literature.. all succeeding members were then "personally selected" by existing "slave" members.
