we have been working through the whole letter.

verses 1-11 start with .

A fascinating place ancient Corinth. I went there in 1994 and saw the judgement seat and the temple of Apollo. And where Paul probably worked as a tent maker.

Elderly and sick: Out of sight, out of mind

friends

someone else posted something a similar experience, this is one i had regarding my mom.my mom died last year.

she had been in failing health for years, but the last 2 year were pretty rough for her, with lots of visits to the hospital.

the last 4 months, it was the hospital, a skilled nursing facility/rehab unit, and finally, a nursing home.

Such is life! I do think of the verse in Job 14:1 “ Man,born of woman, is short-lived and filled with trouble. So many of us have experienced similar outcomes in our short lives.

So sorry to hear of your loss, it’s such an empty lonely feeling to lose our dear loved ones. Somehow mothers are especially wonderful people. They loved and cared for us when we were young and it seemed they were always there until they are gone.

I lost my dearest mother a year ago today. She was the best and I miss her a lot, but I want to be there for her when she returns. Even those in the congregation sometimes don’t know what to say or do, I guess because we are all so busy and weighed down with every day concerns. Yes it is common to turn up at one’s funeral but not always keeping in touch on a more regular basis.

So looking forward to this evil system ending and finally getting on with the real life that Paul spoke of. Stay strong and all the best to you my friend wherever you are.

Did God know adam and eve would sin?

by gavindlt in

to all those on this forum, i would love to know what your take on this vital question is..

Bribie

If there is no God then the complexity and tremendous diversity of life on our unique planet does not make sense. There is something far far superior to human thinking and our limited troubled life spans.

Changed behavior of the governing body on the topic of “vaccinations” in the Covid era

by Pedro in

i'm looking for an explanation why the gb has made a radical change on the issue of vaccinations.

was there pressure from outside?

were there any financial or other benefits to promoting experimental genetic therapy?.

Bribie

Never accept free drugs from strangers….. especially the government.

Elena Many thousands of people who have taken these vaccinations have sadly ended up with many adverse health outcomes. And blood clots have been a very common result of this clearly novel, experimental rollout. Why did the GB push them? The answer although not 100% clear to me yet does raise some disturbing thoughts.

Jehovah's Witness Governing Body, (New Light Division) Are Vegetable Oils not more important than Beards?

Well done Thomas, that sounds about right for the typical American diet. But you forgot burgers! No wonder Americans are so obese and dying from heart attacks every second of the day.

With all the ultra processed junk food in the supermarkets these days no wonder the majority of peoples health is fast declining. I roll my eyes when I see the garbage that people fill their trolleys with, but then they actually consume it. I work with another tradesman regularly and every day he must have his coke, seems it’s about all he drinks.

Such a chronic health epidemic in the world and the sheeple don’t get the connection.
