Looks like the new residence of North Korean President Kim Jon un - from the tower he would look through his binoculars and watch out for the world.

Plans for huge Jehovah's HQ take shape
by Formerbrother inhttp://www.chelmsfordweeklynews.co.uk/news/11227290.plans_for_huge_jehovah_s_hq_take_shape/.
its going to be a real beautiful place when its finished.. they are going for quality over quantity.
it used to be accommodation for a few thousand permanent residents, now its looking like less than a thousand permanent with the possibility of a few thousand more in temporary accommodation should the need arise.. some say the plans are going to be like a garden of eden in england :) i mean they had farming in london over the years but this is going to be epic what they are planning for temple farm at chelmsford.. they are planting thousands (literally) of fruit trees, including tropical fruits in huge green houses, huge vines yards and then the same basic farming activities as before.

It is a developping project, where nothing was before, a plus and benefit for the community
Looks better than Warwick , in my opinon, cause Warwick looks terrifying.

You should not be huffy so quick. I simply have read some threads here on this forum about the same issue. It has become a daily news now that the religion has enough money that is not shared with the poor but stockpiled.

What is Chanukka?Prayers of Hannuka candle light festival here from the tube.
So why not, lets celebrate like Jesus did and speak the prayer as he prayed once ago.
Is the jewish culture new for you, foreign? It should not be at all because Jesus was a Jew.
(I once talked with a muslim woman, and she was astonished to here that Jesus was a Jew. "Whaaaat? Not true..... the Jews are cursed"..as this was the most normal matter of the world)

2. Blessed are You, Lord our G-d, King of the universe, who performed miracles for our forefathers in those days, at this time.

Watched "Insurgent". Tris finally played throught the simulation and got the recorded message that the fractional human society was only a test whether the humanity accomplishes to live together tolerantly.
The indeterminded people, the divergent, who where considered threats to the existing social order, because they think independently and the government therefore cannot control them , are in the end of Insurgent presented as what they really are, not the error in the human society but as its solution.
Did I get it right, Divergent?

"Whatever may be the case, the temple services were observed during the ministry of Jesus Christ. Zerubbabel’s temple had been rebuilt (replaced) more elaborately by Herod. For this reason and because of their dislike of Herod, the Jews usually make mention of only two temples, Solomon’s and Zerubbabel’s. Neither in the words of Jesus nor in any of the writings of his disciples do we find any condemnation of the Festival of Dedication. It is not, however, enjoined on Christians in the new covenant.—Col 2:16; Ga 4:10, 11; Heb 8:6."
@WOL
So we could say that everything that a Jew did is okay for us today if it was specially condemned by Jesus or Apostel, right? Let us see what they did else and was not condemned in the scriptures.
I cant see any reason why we should not take part in this beautiful Festival of Lights even today, if Jesus celebrated it, at least should Jewhish christians be allowed to do it.
