Day number 2 is done.
There was an audio drama, sure, it adds some excitement, hey, its different.
Final talk "Stay Close to Jehovah, as Jeremiah Did" ended with the release of the book ... God's Word For Us Through Jeremiah ... not a verse by verse consideration of prophecy, rather, what we can learn from Jeremiah's life as a prophet, considers information from Jeremiah and Lamentations. (Of course informed readers of this site knew of this release already.)
Noticibly missing ... Jesus Christ ... to me it was painfully obvious.
One talk I think was numbing our mind to accept the generation bomb tomorrow.
I couldn't help but realize that throughout the convention so far, the vast majority of scriptural references are from Old Testament (yes, it was hard not to say Hebrew Scriptures, so I just did).
I didn't realize it so much in the past, but it seems like Jehovah's Witnesses are trying to accomplish what the nation of Israel couldn't, follow laws. It seems so obvious now. Didn't Jesus free us from that?
Plenty of guilt to go around ... Jeremiah was single (while no RULE is made to stay single today, a brief comment) advantages of single and/or childless life obvious.
Jehovah blessed a Pioneer with new tires ... too bad about the 4 that got killed when their car went out of control and landed upside down in water and the recent young man who got hit by the car and pinned to the wall ... don't cry, the tires were important.
What else ... ? It hurts to try and remember.
