Well, did you ever look at the back cover of the old songbooks and see the heavenly choir- all white, dressed in white with white wings, all american, no asian, none but white people. Blacks should have taken note of that.

Since they were tacking a scripture from Timothy onto the gathering of those 18-21 as newbie elder and ms, the qualifications state they should be married in that scripture- and in 2014 put it in a confidential to elders that stated one of the requirements was that his wife and any children are good examples. So the question is, are they asking them to marry as well? Other requirements that seemed to be overlooked in this memo to the congregation is he is to be of sufficient age, life experienced, his marriage is scriptural. There are many more factors in the 2014 guidelines that now seem to be thrown out of the window.

Canada exploring changes to tax rules that exempt religious organizations
by Scully inhttps://www.christianpost.com/news/evangelicals-oppose-removal-of-tax-status-in-canadian-proposal.html.
the proposed change will revoke charitable status of canadian churches who have an anti-abortion position, and will not give tax exemptions to organizations whose sole claim is to promote religion, which is the basic claim for all jw related entities in canada.
this will be interesting!.

Please, please let it go through. It's time. This no tax goes back to medieval times - people have been subject to threats from their priests/ministers/ elders - to pay or go to hell. JW same - hands up! another announcement for funds and Jehovahs blessing on you. God forbid no one opposes! "We are doing the only worldwide work - just build another hall with benches in Africa."

My husband was out when the phone rang... could be 11 at night, 3 in the morning- family crises, folks who didn't have anyone to talk too, people loved him. His friends who were made elders at that time, were the same. That was when the elder arrangement was instituted- so you know the years between. If you heard laughter, you knew where he was, in the middle of it. No prude either, liked his beer and rum, dancing and fun,. lobsters. Helping when a house being built or garage around the community. You could see them all there. I could say he was all around average joe. Of course, I tagged along and was the "assistant", like the other wives. That was "back in the day!" Current elders - whitewashed graves as the bible speaks off. Some may be good smiling with a hi. No contact though so what can I say?

Footage from Recently Converted Kingdom Hall to a Mosque
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/kjqwfeuhpji?si=6ahbituygdyiq3za.
when jehovah’s witnesses dedicate their kingdom halls, they often refer to the example of solomon dedicating the temple in jerusalem.
it’s a solemn moment.

My story of becoming a circuit overseer after Kin Suen visited our congregation.
by ExCircuitOverseer inhere is my story of becoming a missionary after having kin suen (pronounced “shin”) as my circuit overseer.
my father wanted me to go to college, but since he wasn’t a witness, i knew he just didn’t understand how close we were to the end.
i had actually become a circuit overseer!

several years ago, and I believe its in the SFOG book, a newly baptized male, with good "qualifications" i.e. service, hall cleaning, volunteering- can work hard and become a ms, and within 1 year, an elder! Now isn't that great! A 20,21 y.o. giving advice to a life long person/ publisher, ( not a member anymore remember), in the congregation and that new mini elder is not qualified to give spiritual or emotional, or mental advice to anyone! This is the same crap they want women to believe that even if a male "child" of 15, 16, 17 is newly baptized, he has more authority in a car group or group of sisters just because he is a male. Sure, give him the territory card so he can direct the work. I can just see the older elders patting him on the back, giving him encouragement but not helping the older sister who lives alone, sitting in the back row, or the older brother needing some help around his house. Oh the love.
Joke!

colossians 1:16. for by him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through him and for him..

Is the subject creator or christmas?
All things were created by him - that's scriptural.
His birth? - check out when Herod the Great ruled and died. Jesus, according to scripture was born in Herods time, making Herods death the prime time to look at Jesus age at that time.
Also, since 40 seems to be the magical number in scripture, The org says Jesus died at 33 years of age, seeming that he supposedly began his ministry at age 30 and died three years later, however, allowing that Herod wanted the babies two year of age and under killed, then died about 4 BCE, makes Jesus birth back to 6 or 7 bce ( making him 40 when he died) and as the shepherds were still in the fields, it definitely was not the "december" of the year.
Still does not answer the question of his birth --although he did say in Luke to celebrate his death, so it falls to that of the thought that IF Jesus thought his birth was important, he would have said so. Everything else is conjecture.
