A continuation of the Micah series “In the final part of the days, the mountain of the house of Jehovah will become firmly established above the top of the mountains, and it will be raised up above the hills, and to it peoples will stream. And many nations will go and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah and to the [...]
Before considering the 4th chapter of Micah, which is a prophecy earmarked for fulfillment in the final part of the days, let us first consider the first chapter, which is addressed to all the people of the earth—in other words—to us! “Hear, all you peoples! Pay attention, O earth and what fills you, and let the Sovereign Lord Jehovah serve as a witness against you —Jehovah [...]
“Jehovah is my light and my salvation. Whom should I fear? Jehovah is the stronghold of my life. Whom should I dread?” Mankind is enslaved by the fear of death and the Devil uses our fear of death to manipulate and coerce us. The recent Covid pandemic is an example. The authorities led the world to believe that the epidemic was much more lethal than it [...]
A continuation of Micah The concluding verses of the second chapter of Micah reveal something extraordinary. Although God’s people have risen up as an enemy Jehovah is still determined to set matters straight. Verses 12 and 13 states: “I will certainly gather all of you, O Jacob; I will surely collect the remaining ones of Israel together. In unity I will place them, like sheep in [...]
The first edition of Jehovah Himself Has Become King (2005) considered some of the so-called minor prophets, which included Micah. It was apparent to me that the prophecy of Micah, although set in ancient times, actually contains judgments yet to be revealed at the second coming of Jesus Christ. Even in the most recent Third and final edition, though, I could not foresee or appreciate the [...]
This is a review of Watchtower study article #37 2022, entitled: You Can Trust Your Brothers 1. PEOPLE in Satan’s world do not know whom they can trust. They are constantly disappointed by the conduct of commercial, political, and religious leaders. That feeling extends to friends, neighbors, and even family members. This should not surprise us. The Bible foretold: “In the last days . . [...]
“I did not send the prophets, yet they ran. I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied.” — Jeremiah 23:21 Who are God’s people? According to God’s own declaration His people, whom he likens to a flock of sheep, have been entrusted to the care of earthly shepherds. At the time Jeremiah issued Jehovah’s denunciations the Jews were God’s exclusive people and the city of [...]
Does the Bible teach that the sealing of the 144,000 began at Pentecost a few days after Christ's ascension? What Bible proof is there that being anointed or receiving a token is the same as being sealed? People can lose their anointing by committing the unpardonable sin against the holy spirit. So evidently being anointed is not the same as being sealed. Anointed ones are not [...]
Imagine that you go to see a physician for a routine check-up and get some tests and lab work done. The doctor looks over all of your test results and informs you that you have a few serious issues, like high cholesterol and your blood sugar levels are not normal. You would be happy to know that you have these potentially harmful issues so that you [...]
“To you, O Jehovah, I turn. My God, I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame. Do not let my enemies gloat over me.” In “God We Trust" became the official motto of the United States back in 1956 and the slogan appears on all US currency, which oddly enough is not really owned by the people of the United States but [...]
