Human progress has been the normal trend for a long time. Over the past 250 years, the world has been transformed by countless inventions and especially advances in energy production. For thousands of years burning wood was the sole method used to stay warm and cook food. An oil lamp or candle was the only way to produce light. Food production was limited to the [...]
I have received a few inquires from readers who are wondering if this is the end of the worldwide preaching work of Jehovahâs Witnesses. The answer is no. There are places that are untouched by the infection. Besides, the pandemic will die outâ probably sooner rather than later. They always do. That is how nature works. That is not to say the virus may not return. [...]
This slightly edited article was originally posted on the e-jehovahs-witnesses discussion forum, which is where my daily text commentaries appear now. Below is the Watchtower's daily text for December 13th. The person faithful in what is least is faithful also in much, and the person unrighteous in what is least is unrighteous also in much.âLuke 16:10. As the end of this system of things draws near, [...]
Last weekâs attention-grabbing clickbait on JW.org had to do with this summerâs heatwave being the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. I wish I were kidding, but it is no joke. They have sunken that far. And, as to be expected, they cited the UN's World Meteorological Organization as the supreme authority and font of truth. This week they are running a variation of the heatwave theme [...]
It all goes back to Eden. An unnamed angel rebelled against God and inserted himself as the ruler of the just-created human race, which at the time only consisted of two souls. His wicked influence became painfully evident as soon as people began to multiply outside the gates of Eden. As if a portent of things to come the very first child born by Adam and [...]
This is part 12 of the review of the July 2022 Watchtower 14.  Jesus provides wise direction in times of crisis. The benefits of that direction were evident when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out. While many in the world were uncertain about what course to take, Jesus made sure that we received clear guidance to keep us safe. We were encouraged to wear  face coverings when [...]
JW dot org, the home page of the Watchtower on the world wide web, presents fresh micro articles every week based upon current events and attention-grabbing topical issues. This week is the hot topic of manmade global warming. The title states Climate Change and Our FutureâWhat the Bible Says. Of course, the Bible does not say anything about climate change. Not one word. Furthermore, the writers [...]
jw.org has taken to posting brief articles with short bullet points on current topics. As I have done with the Watchtower Review column for many years this post will examine the validity of the article: What Is the Sign of âthe Last Days,â or âEnd Timesâ? (The recycled article appearing on jw dot org has been reviewed before but what follows is more detailed.) What [...]
JW.org posted a sensational cover article entitled Russia Invades Ukraine, surprisingly not punctuated with an exclamation mark, with a subtitle posing the question: Is Bible prophecy being fulfilled? The first paragraph states: In the early morning hours of February 24, 2022, Russia began a military invasion of Ukraine, despite the efforts of world leaders to avoid war. How might this military conflict affect the world? The [...]
The truth is a precious thing. Jehovah is the God of truth. In fact, it is impossible for God to lie. On the other hand, the god of this world is a liar. Jesus said of him: âWhen he speaks the lie, he speaks according to his own disposition, because he is a liar and the father of the lie.â Satanâs influence permeates the world. That [...]
