The hour of test coming upon the world

2023-06-28T07:00:06-04:00May 28th, 2021|Uncategorized|

This is an updated article that was published some time back but which was taken down, for reasons I cannot recall. According to the Watchtower 1914 was the most important date in all of human history. As all of Jehovah’s Witnesses know, virtually all prophecy has been anchored to that date. Up until about 1970, the Watchtower insisted that the great tribulation had even begun back [...]

When Is the Hour of the Judgment?

2019-09-24T09:50:37-04:00July 6th, 2016|Commentary|

Wednesday, July 6 Why do you judge your brother? Or why do you also look down on your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.—Rom. 14:10. It would be wrong to entertain baseless suspicions about our brothers and sisters.  What is more, having a tendency to distrust the integrity of others in the congregation would be harmful to our own spirituality. Each [...]

QUESTION #5 - Thomas called Jesus 'God' with a big 'G' at John 20:28. Jesus not only failed to correct Thomas, but he actually confirmed that Thomas was correct. How can this be, if Jesus is not God? ANSWER - In my opinion one of the most important qualities for a person to cultivate is honesty. Honesty being, not just refraining from telling lies, but [...]

Kingdom Bulletin #25 – By the Numbers

2023-10-29T07:03:16-04:00October 28th, 2023|Bulletins|

Having watched the Governing Body’s Update #7, it is most impressive that the complete NWT is now available in 158 languages and Watchtower literature has been translated into over 1,000 languages and dialects. There is no question that the good news is being preached in all the world as Jesus Christ foretold. However, it should be pointed out that Jesus said the good news must be [...]

Side Notes for August, 2023

JW dot org has an attention-grabbing image. A mother and daughter with an empty shopping cart staring at barren grocery shelves. And of course, the urgent question: What Does the Bible Say About Today's Food Shortages?  It certainly is a grim picture. But does it reflect reality? I remember back during the pandemic hysteria there were a few weeks when some items like toilet [...]

2024-03-08T09:28:57-05:00August 4th, 2023|Page Two|

Last week’s attention-grabbing clickbait on JW.org had to do with this summer’s 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 [...]

2021-08-10T03:44:03-04:00August 9th, 2021|Jeremiah|

This a continuation of the Jeremiah series When Jesus walked the earth the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem was the center of worship of Jesus’ Father. However, the Son of God revealed a new form of worship was going to replace the temple-centered religion of the Jews. Amazingly, Jesus first made this startling revelation to a non-Jewish person and a woman at that! Speaking to a [...]

This article has been updated from its original publication in 2014 "Woe to you, you destroyer who has not been destroyed; You betrayer who has not been betrayed! When you finish destroying, you will be destroyed. When you finish betraying, you will be betrayed."  The 33rd chapter of Isaiah opens with the last of what is a series of woes that began with the 28th chapter announcing [...]

In the time of the end…a pushing

Part four In the aftermath of the Second World War the British Empire immediately went to work to destroy the alliance between the United States and Russia that had formed as a result of the Nazi invasion of the USSR; hence, Winston Churchill, the former British prime minister, came to Fulton Missouri in 1946 and proclaimed the Iron Curtain had fallen on half of Europe.
