jehovah—the source of true courage.

here is samuel herd on the subject, ''the source of true courage.

Can you expand on that information
RR: You did your R&R research and reporting well.
In the rurals of quebec, wt foot soldiers were pretty much on their own. In one village, , were we had entered from all the different roads to flee easily, the priest got the carpenters working on the rebuilding of the Church. to literally grab their crowbars to chase us out, to our cars. (social distancing is not a covid invention!)
The police custody, was prompted by such a nuisance call, like depicted in the OP
Glen How send a warning, calling the gen d' armes "Enforcers of Her Majesty's laws", which did not go over well, and " If the priest has the right to ring Church Bells, we have the right to ring Doorbells".
Wt warriors like he and Covington were very combative. provocative.
Stuff like this is not going to prompt the angels into action.
S. Herd is a more pleasant person to talk to than them bsw.

happened to a group of us in the Duplessi years. Protective Custody.
Not really as bad as if they had used the crow bars they used to chase us with out of a nearby village.
P.S: when you think of the execution in Europe during WW2, the rapes in Malawi, when the wt god did nothing, what else, worse can go wrong Sam?

bless, thank the wives for their good family work.
about this week's weak wt material:
"Governing body" in 1st century met only for emergence meetings: not every wednesday, for hefty circumcision debate. Pressure coming from outside.
GB now seems also reactive, " Approved of Cart Initiative / experiment in Paris." yeah, arms felt always tired holding the Reveillez Vous, le Tour. in the street corner work.
The Saviez vous? gimmick never caught on though. Perhaps never got to Knorr.
Wt taking created for the information technology inventions developed by more enlightened humans. aka "satan's world"

the latest gb update ramps up the fear of the plandemic even more, and introduces a whiteboard animation that advocates staying at home, wearing masks and social distancing.. https://www.jw.org/finder?locale=en&category=latestvideos&item=pub-jwb_202012_12_video&docid=1011214&applanguage=e.

then there's another 'save the planet' type article that mentions debunked and unrealistic green new deal-esque talking points such as alternative energy, switching to a plant based diet and less manufacturing.. https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/peace-happiness/save-earth/.
waton

Wt teaches that New World citizen will not be owners of real estate.
The inhertance goes to the kingdom government. They are the meek that inherit the Earth.
With patting the Pandas, prepare to pay rent. mortgage, like now already for the KHs.
The good things to come when wt inc is the only organisation surviving the end.

watchtower admitting in the article as a preamble, that their baptism is an induction ritual into the organization.
wt prophesying that it is the organisation that will survive Armageddon, and
we thought we would go to paradise on individual merit, for our benefit.

since you would not meet a jw on the doors any these days, , how about
what questions to ask during their zoom meeting, in the family setting? this week?
On restored worship, a real life story.: " so:
How do we know animals were vegetarians before the flood?-- well, think about what would the lions, hyenas have eaten for 9 month in the ark??? and, so:
If Abel offered meat, was he not really offering offal, garbage? that even the dogs won't eat, then:
was he not really rewarded with approval for being smart? also,
after the killing of all the animals in the deluge, why did Noah right away have to kill some more? that is pure worship? killing?

They might respond that Jesus gave them authority in Matthew 28.
Vh: Our follow up question: why is it then that during your baptism ceremony you never use HIS prescribed 3 point formula, you now even took "~~spirit~~ directed" completely out of the sound bite?
