The Harvest is a Conclusion of a System

2019-09-19T15:24:39-04:00February 23rd, 2018|Mailbag|

QUESTION: With 8 million JW's being so misguided, how are we to explain/understand/apply Jesus’ parting words at Matt. 28:20 ? Was the "conclusion" he was referring to including or only the destruction in 70ce? Being "with you all the days..." -Who has he been "with" for all what days? "All" means all, or does it? Amazing how one small verse can open up a whole [...]

When Is the Kingdom Harvest?

2019-09-24T10:25:22-04:00June 4th, 2016|Commentary|

Saturday, June 4 Jesus spoke to the crowds by illustrations.—Matt. 13:34. Simple illustrations are often the best kind to use. For example, when explaining to a householder that God is superior to Jesus, we can mention that both God and Jesus used a family reference when describing their relationship. God referred to Jesus as his Son, and Jesus spoke of God as his Father. Next, we might ask: [...]

The Harvest Will Vanish in the Day of Disease

Monday, April 11 You received free, give free.—Matt. 10:8. Jehovah’s organization takes the commission to preach the good news of the Kingdom worldwide very seriously, as shown by the support given to the many translation teams around the world. Millions upon millions of tracts, brochures, and magazines have been distributed in campaigns throughout the world, without charge to the public. The expense has been [...]

The Harvest of the Wheat and the Weeds

2022-09-30T08:56:24-04:00November 1st, 2015|Commentary|

Sunday, November 1 Collect the weeds.—Matt. 13:30. As the collecting work progressed, the distinction between true Christians and false ones became ever clearer. By 1919, it became evident that Babylon the Great had fallen. What especially set true Christians apart from imitation ones? The preaching work. Those taking the lead among the Bible Students began to stress the importance of sharing personally in the Kingdom preaching [...]

Has the harvest of the wheat and the weeds begun?

2019-09-25T11:08:45-04:00October 5th, 2015|Commentary|

Monday, October 5 Jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 Tim. 2:19. In late 1914, some Bible Students were disheartened because they had not gone to heaven. During 1915 and 1916, opposition from outside the organization slowed down the preaching work. Worse, after Brother Russell’s death in October 1916, opposition arose from inside the organization. Four of the seven directors of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract [...]

The Harvest Is a Conclusion of a System

2022-10-15T06:28:44-04:00April 25th, 2013|WT Review|

MP3 Download file      “Look! I Am With You All The Days” is the title of the second study article in the July 2013, Watchtower, and is a consideration of Jesus’ parable concerning the wheat and the weeds.

You may read the parable Jesus expounded upon in the 13th chapter of Matthew on the Watchtower Online Library. By the way, the Watchtower Online Library is a valuable resource for those who may not possess the Watchtower CD-ROM. It is available in an astounding 77 languages! Although not as extensive as the CD-ROM in terms of older publications, Jehovah's Witnesses Online Library hosts the Daily Text and Theocratic School schedule for each week and virtually every magazine, brochure, book, booklet, tract, and yearbook published since the year 2000, as well as kingdom songs and the Bible. And the New World Translation is also available in audio on JW.org.

The fraud of the Watchtower’s spiritual paradise

2024-02-13T20:08:57-05:00February 13th, 2024|WT Review|

Continuing with the review of the article appearing in the April 2024 Watchtower entitled Never Leave Spiritual Paradise. 7 Happy and content. God’s people can “shout joyfully” because their heart overflows with appreciation. (Read Isaiah 65:14.) The upbuilding truths and comforting promises in God’s Word and our solid hope based on Christ’s ransom sacrifice give us a “good condition of the heart.” Talking about these things [...]

Will the Watchtower be your guide during the conclusion?

2023-12-31T04:36:41-05:00December 29th, 2023|WT Review|

This post is a consideration of Watchtower Study article #8 for 2024, entitled: Keep Following Jehovah’s Guidance. In recent years the Watchtower has been subtly conditioning Jehovah’s Witnesses to expect to receive “life-saving instructions” when once the globe-rocking tribulation begins. This is not to imply that the Watchtower has not been used to accomplish the preaching and disciple-making work Christ mandated to be accomplished before [...]
