I just looked at the site of Who is God ? In Got Questions ?, And going through all of those points being made ,I`ll stick to being an Atheist as far as the God of the Bible is concerned ,and that the Holy Bible is the word of God.

Studying the bible with my oldest kid
by StephaneLaliberte ini no longer believe in the bible as the word of god, but do appreciate the value in teaching it to my kids.
its teachings influence the life and culture of billions of people today and shaped the history of the world.
so, i bought a book that quickly goes over the core stories and have discussions about those with my kid.

March? Do you have a reference for that deadline ?OK Maybe I have found it.
, institutions listed above may have their charitable status removed should they be eligible for Commonwealth Government tax concessions. Amendments to primary legislation to enable this were passed by the Parliament late in 2020 and will commence by April 2021.

The first thing I would have looked at is the pamphlet and saw JW.Org and that would have been enough for me ,however a good story Terry , you had me in at first.
Also the words in Spanish are pretty easy to relate to, english in the pamphlet it was really obvious it was from some Bible religion.

the GB has just cancelled the next two years
by neat blue dog ineven some democrats are advocating for reopening society, and are at least hoping for some point in 2021, but the governing body just announced that they're canceling the assemblies in 2022 as well, aiming to restart in 2023. .
they're really milking this 'pandemic', because as soon as things go back to normal that sense of urgency will start to die again, and publisher counts / meeting attendance will go down as well.
i wonder how many jws are suffering form (additional) depression from this as well, because with meetings, assemblies and conventions at least you could see and meet new people, as well as socialize.

I would be interested just out of curiosity why that person who gave me a dislike did so ,not that I would judge them as they have a right to their own opinions . Was it because I projected my reasoning into the future paradise ?
Or was there another reason ,?

Jehovah couldn`t protect the Israelites from Leprosy either as a colony existed among the Jews. Miriam Exodus ,Naaman 2Kings 5:1 ,even up to Jesus day ,Luke 5:12 ,so Jehovah`s Witnesses don`t expect him to protect you from anything in Paradise ,the New System of things.

new series "The Good News According to Jesus"
by neat blue dog inthis concept was leaked here not too long ago, and it was just announced at the next section of the 'annual meeting' on jw broadcasting.
they allude to it being a half hour series and say that it will cover literally every detail in all four gospels in chronological order through the course of all episodes.
they also insinuate that it's the most ambitious project yet (i guess making use of that new media production facility).

Maybe they, the rank and file will then realise that followers of Jesus were only instructed to witness to,for,and about the Kingdom of Jesus .?
Their is no such instruction from God, Jehovah to preach about a Jehovah`s Kingdom in any of the four Gospels .?
they ask the audience to 'support' the production as much as they can.
That`s where they ask for more donations for the Kingdom work ,because a big chunk of their money has gone to paying out Millions of $$$$ in lawsuits of Child Sexual Abuse cases that they have failed to protect in their organization.
