Family is Created by Love

There is Beauty all around us, just look at Nature itself, the peace and calm that it brings. Jehovah's Creation. People are Beautiful...don't just look at them, see them. Look past what is on the outside...try to see what's on the inside...Everyone has a story. Generation to generation, we are all imperfect.

1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love has not come to know God, because God is love.+

1 John 5:19
We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.+

One act of Kindness goes a long way. Don't judge the sinner, because you too are a sinner. Don't think "man" (including you) can resolve the issues, it's not possible. You know this to be true, it's now just over 6,000 years since Satan lied when it came to Adam and Eve. Satan has been proven to be the liar that he is, man is killing man and incapable of governing themselves.



Love one another...we're all the same, just with different experiences. The one you may consider to be evil, no matter who it is, be it current or past Presidents, rich or poor, or the worst of the worst, it doesn't matter, they may be the one's who need the most help. If it's in your means to help someone, help them. Don't judge, forgive one another. (Matthew 18:21, 22) Always remember, the judging belongs to Jehovah and not you. (Isaiah 33:22)

Revelation 22:7, 10
7 Look! I am coming quickly.+ Happy is anyone observing the words of the prophecy of this scroll.”+ 
10 He also tells me: “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, for the appointed time is near.



It's always nice when one can avoid the "world" and make time for Jehovah and some Creativity.
Sharing some Love.

~ Sweet Memories...a Family is a little world Created by Love ~


Genesis 2:8
Further, Jehovah God planted a garden in Eʹden,+ toward the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed.+





Sometimes, something as simple as a smile or a kind word is all it takes.
Anyone can change and follow God's will.





Lean on Jehovah, not mankind.
Learn from Him, take the time, He will teach you if you let Him.


Jehovah​—A God Who Teaches
“They will all be taught by Jehovah.”​—John 6:45.








We're all God's creation and He loves us all, He's well aware that we all sin, it doesn't matter how big or small, sin is sin...don't lose sight of that, everyone is given the opportunity to repent.
Hence why Jesus Christ was given as a sacrifice, for forgiveness of our sins. (1Peter 3:18) If you don't forgive, then you will not be forgiven, repent and follow Jesus examples, then lead by example.  




37 He said to him: “‘You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.’+ 38 This is the greatest and first commandment. 39 The second, like it, is this: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’+





Love Jehovah...your God.

Deuteronomy 5:9, 10 
You must not bow down to them nor be led to serve them,+ for I, Jehovah your God, am a God who requires exclusive devotion,+ bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons, upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation of those who hate me,+ 10 but showing loyal love* to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments.





Change your own ways.
Focus on what you're doing wrong and how you can change it, leave all else to Jehovah. 






Excerpts...

The act of creating, or causing the existence of, someone or something. It can also refer to that which has been created or brought into existence.

Jesus Christ recognized Jehovah as the One who created humans, making them male and female. (Mt 19:4; Mr 10:6) Hence, Jehovah is fittingly and uniquely called “the Creator.”​—Isa 40:28.

It is because of God’s will that all things “existed and were created.” (Re 4:11) Jehovah, who has existed for all time, was alone before creation had a beginning.​—Ps 90:1, 2; 1Ti 1:17.

While Jehovah, who is a Spirit (Joh 4:24; 2Co 3:17), has always existed, that is not true of the matter of which the universe is made. Hence, when creating the literal heavens and earth, Jehovah did not use preexistent material. This is clear from Genesis 1:1

Thus, God used his active force, or “spirit” (Heb., ruʹach), to accomplish his creative purpose. The things he has created testify not only to his power but also to his Godship. (Jer 10:12; Ro 1:19, 20) And, as Jehovah “is a God, not of disorder, but of peace” (1Co 14:33), his creative work is marked with orderliness rather than chaos or chance. 

Jehovah’s first creation was his “only-begotten Son” (Joh 3:16), “the beginning of the creation by God.” (Re 3:14) This one, “the firstborn of all creation,” was used by Jehovah in creating all other things, those in the heavens and those upon the earth, “the things visible and the things invisible.” (Col 1:15-17) 

John’s inspired testimony concerning this Son, the Word, is that “all things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence,” and the apostle identifies the Word as Jesus Christ, who had become flesh. (Joh 1:1-4, 10, 14, 17) 

As wisdom personified, this One is represented as saying, “Jehovah himself produced me as the beginning of his way,” and he tells of his association with God the Creator as Jehovah’s “master worker.” (Pr 8:12, 22-31) In view of the close association of Jehovah and his only-begotten Son in creative activity and because that Son is “the image of the invisible God” (Col 1:15; 2Co 4:4), it was evidently to His only-begotten Son and master worker that Jehovah spoke in saying, “Let us make man in our image.”​—Ge 1:26.

After creating his only-begotten Son, Jehovah used him in bringing the heavenly angels into existence. This preceded the founding of the earth, as Jehovah revealed when questioning Job and asking him: “Where did you happen to be when I founded the earth . . . when the morning stars joyfully cried out together, and all the sons of God began shouting in applause?” (Job 38:4-7) 

It was after the creation of these heavenly spirit creatures that the material heavens and earth and all elements were made, or brought into existence. And, since Jehovah is the one primarily responsible for all this creative work, it is ascribed to him.​—Ne 9:6; Ps 136:1, 5-9.

The Scriptures, in stating, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Ge 1:1), leave matters indefinite as to time. This use of the term “beginning” is therefore unassailable, regardless of the age scientists may seek to attach to the earthly globe and to the various planets and other heavenly bodies. The actual time of creation of the material heavens and earth may have been billions of years ago.



Satan the Devil

Excerpts... 

Definition: The spirit creature who is the chief adversary of Jehovah God and of all who worship the true God. The name Satan was given to him because of his becoming a resister of Jehovah. Satan is also known as the Devil, because he is the foremost slanderer of God. Satan is described as the original serpent, evidently because of his using a serpent in Eden to deceive Eve, and for this reason “serpent” came to signify “deceiver.” In the book of Revelation, the symbolism of a devouring dragon is also applied to Satan.

From where did Satan come?

All of Jehovah’s works are perfect; he is not the author of unrighteousness; so he did not create anyone wicked. (Deut. 32:4; Ps. 5:4) 

But, as is true of all of God’s intelligent creatures, this spirit son was endowed with free will. He abused his freedom of choice, allowed feelings of self-importance to develop in his heart, began to crave worship that belonged only to God, and so enticed Adam and Eve to listen to him rather than obey God. Thus by his course of action he made himself Satan, which means “adversary.”—Jas. 1:14, 15; see also page 372, under the heading “Sin.”


Why did not God destroy Satan promptly after he rebelled?

Serious issues were raised by Satan:

(1) The righteousness and rightfulness of Jehovah’s sovereignty.
Was Jehovah withholding from mankind freedom that would contribute to their happiness? Were mankind’s ability to govern their affairs successfully and their continued life truly dependent on their obedience to God? Had Jehovah been dishonest in giving a law that stated that disobedience would lead to their death? (Gen. 2:16, 17; 3:3-5)

(2) The integrity of intelligent creatures toward Jehovah.
So, did Jehovah really have the right to rule? By the deflection of Adam and Eve the question was raised: Did Jehovah’s servants really obey him out of love or might all of them abandon God and follow the lead being given by Satan? This latter issue was further developed by Satan in the days of Job. (Gen. 3:6; Job 1:8-11; 2:3-5; see also Luke 22:31.) These issues could not be settled by merely executing the rebels.

Not that God needed to prove anything to himself. But so that these issues would never again disrupt the peace and well-being of the universe, Jehovah has allowed ample time for them to be settled beyond all doubt.

SATAN

Excerpts...

Efforts to cause Jesus to stumble.

Throughout Jesus’ ministry he was in danger; Satan used human agents to oppose Jesus, trying either to cause him to stumble or to kill him. At one time the people were about to seize Jesus to make him king. But he would not consider such a thing; he would accept kingship only in God’s time and way. (Joh 6:15)

 As Jesus said, shortly before his death: “Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out”​—completely discredited. (Joh 12:31)

Satan had a grip on all mankind through sin. But, knowing that Satan would soon bring about his death, Jesus, after celebrating his last Passover with his disciples, could say: “The ruler of the world is coming. And he has no hold on me.”​—Joh 14:30.

Continues to fight Christians

 And as in the case with Eve, Satan disguised his real nature and purposes by “transforming himself into an angel of light,” and he had agents, ministers who “also keep transforming themselves into ministers of righteousness.” (2Co 11:14, 15) 

Examples of these were the false apostles who fought against Paul (2Co 11:13) and those in Smyrna ‘who said they themselves were Jews, and yet they were not but were a synagogue of Satan.’ (Re 2:9) Satan never ceased in making accusations “day and night” against Christians, challenging their integrity, as he did Job’s. (Re 12:10; Lu 22:31) 

But Christians have “a helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,” who appears before the person of God in their behalf.​—1Jo 2:1.

  1. (CHORUS)
    There is joy in your creation,
    In the message of salvation,
    And the Paradise to come.
    But to have your love forever
    Is a real and lasting treasure.
    You alone will prove to be
    Our joy eternally.
  2. (BRIDGE)
    This joy could not be ours
    Without the gift of your Son.
    His sacrifice has paid the price
    So joy could be ours for all time.

Com coragem, divulgamos
O futuro que aguardamos
E a alegria que nos dá

Viver p’ra ti, Jeová!

Só é possível ser feliz
Vivendo p’ra ti;
E, graças ao resgate,
Vamos ter alegria sem fim!

Captured ~ Soon To Be Free

UPDATE: As of October 2020, my understanding took a turn when it came to JW's. So, as I go through my blog posts, I will try to clean out and only keep the links from JW Org. that I think would not be harmful in teaching. In the end, it's up to you to discern what is good and what is not, or what you will accept as truth. I have many posts that I have done, so this can take some time. 

One can get good spiritual food anywhere, but it's up to you to know the difference between Jehovah and Jesus Christ and to lean on Jehovah, through Jesus Christ to get you there. 
End of update.

Adam and Eve Disobeyed God

John 8:44 ASV — Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.


Genesis 2:17 ASV — but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

The Sin...

Genesis 3:12-13 ASV — And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. And Jehovah God said unto the woman, What is this thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

The Outcome...

Genesis 3:22-23 ASV — And Jehovah God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever— therefore Jehovah God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
The Prophecy...

Genesis 3:15 ASV — and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

__________________________________________________________________

The setting...

Imagine being held captive since you were a child, you are now 50 years old and suddenly you see your father just a short distance away, he has awakened you to let you know that he is there, all you have to do is reach out to him. So, you stretch your arm out for him to take you by the hand, he takes hold of your hand to reassure you, that he is there for you and that he will rescue you. 
  • Imagine it...the relief and disbelief. Is this really happening?
He gives you instructions, a book with many letters on what must take place. He explains the timing is not yet right, certain things will take place first, there is much at stake and that there are many others who are being held captive, your brothers and sisters. He reassures you, as long as you follow his instruction, you will be saved from your captor. He then asks you to spread the message to all who are also held captive. 

You understand and put your trust in him, you take the time to read the different letters in the book he had left for you. He teaches you; he reminds you and strengthens you. So, what do you do? Do you put the book down? No, you "study" it, you think it through and "meditate" on it, you "associate" yourself with those who will help, you "pray" for the best and you give it your all...your "service" by sharing the message to others.

 Everyone has their own message that they need to follow, but for them to retrieve it, they too have to take the time to read it. You offer to help, but in the end, they have to understand it for themselves. The overall message is the same, but the message within is unique to all, each has to make it their own, in a way that works for them, because everyone is different and what works for one, may not work for the other.

Would you not guide the others who are captive and let them know that they too need to read it to be saved? 

Time goes on, the picture gets clearer, the more you read it, study it and meditate on it, the more you begin to understand it. The more you know what is required of you. It teaches you about the trials you may face and how to endure them. You learn what it takes to get to the point of being rescued. It will not be easy, as you are still trapped and always have to find a way around it. He teaches you endurance, to not lose hope, even in your darkest hour.

All the while, you are learning more and more about your father, who he is and what he is about. You start to remember your life with him, how you never forgot him, how you've never stopped talking about him and how he's never left your side. You trust in him completely and give him your all. 

Now that circumstances have changed and you now know there's a way out, you still can't help but to feel crushed, knowing...your father, whom you've always loved didn't abandon you, he's right there, at arm's length, he's given you the hope that you've been searching for, for most of your life, but you can't fully go to him yet. You're still trapped and have to deal with the Evil that surrounds you, just a while longer. What's worse is that the Evil One is fully aware that your father is trying to rescue you and has made contact with you, so he tries to make things that much more difficult for you.

It's unsettling that you remain captive a while longer, because your greatest fear is that you will fail your father, because he wants to save, not just you, but everyone else too. You follow your father's instruction as best as you can and you try to help everyone else do the same, you keep praying that it will all end soon, knowing that there is hope and that all that listen will finally be saved. You keep relaying the message as best as you can, you share the book and explain how it is for their survival, that it's the only way to be freed from the Evil One.
  • Would you not keep to your word, knowing you would help others learn the message, that they too will soon be set free?
  • Would you not want that for them as well? 
You know they have to listen and follow the instructions properly, or it will not work, and they will not survive. You are persistent in explaining it to them, but they must read and learn the instructions for themselves, they must believe in it to get the proper message, it's the only way.
  • Wouldn't it make you sad to know that there are some who still don't believe you and are choosing not to listen?
  • Would you give up?
  • Would your father want you to give up? 
  • After all, aren't they his children too?
  • What if they were mean to you?
  • Would you find another way to help them? 
  • Would you "not" judge them? 
  • Would you try your best to understand what made them that way? 
  • Would you not try to help save as many as you can?
Even still, you know many won't listen, as they have grown accustomed to the way things are and they don't care enough to change. They prefer to enjoy the shiny objects the evil doer put in front of them and remain captive, then to be freed. They don't realize that they are preferring that their life come to an end under the evil one, other than be freed forever.
  • Is it not Heartbreaking?
The beauty to come and the evil that exists. Many get together and start to share experiences, many follow the message as best as they can, together in unity, the stories in the letters are shared, you strengthen each other with it, in hopes that you get through it together.

It helps when all take moments to imagine what it would be like to finally be set free, to feel safe. To know who you are and to whom you belong to...one big family, brothers and sisters, finally under the care of a loving father. You feel the love grow stronger and stronger and keep sharing it with all.

Why pray for God’s Kingdom to come?
God has chosen his Son, Jesus, to be King of the Kingdom. 

Proverbs 3:5 ASV — Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding:

Proverbs 4:18 ASV — But the path of the righteous is as the dawning light, That shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

Joshua 1:8 ASV — This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate thereon day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Psalm 1:1-2 ASV — Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers: But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

Acts 5:29 ASV — But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We must obey God rather than men.

Ephesians 5:6 ASV — Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience.

In the end, it's all about balance, finding ways to deal with the negative, the world we live in, the effect of Satan's lie, while trying to focus on the positive, the world that is soon to be. Finding ways to support each other through the difficult times, leaning on one another, but mostly having full Faith and Love for the Heavenly Father who will set you free, but only if you allow Him to.

The Balance...

Ecclesiastes 3:1-9 ASV — For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: 
a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 
a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 
a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 
a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 
a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 
a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace. 
What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboreth?

When knowing what is good and bad, there's only One that can help you get through it, it's a choice you can make, free will...rely on Jehovah and He will save you. The appointed time is near.
To be Taken...

There are many ways one can be taken, it can be as simple as people's words, opinions and actions, their behavior and treatment of you to their judgement of you (which belongs to Jehovah through Jesus Christ). The constant reminder of the world we currently live in, all of Satan's tools, BUT ESPECIALLY HIS GREATEST TOOLS OF ALL... the governments, the military, the self-serving one's with their own special interests. Ephesians 6:12

Jeremiah 50:33-34, 36 ASV — Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: The children of Israel and the children of Judah are oppressed together; and all that took them captive hold them fast; they refuse to let them go. Their Redeemer is strong; Jehovah of hosts is his name: he will thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the earth, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
A sword is upon the boasters, and they shall become fools; a sword is upon her mighty men, and they shall be dismayed.

No one has the right to tell you how you should feel, especially when it comes to the Father, Jehovah. Only Jehovah knows who I am and only Jehovah truly knows my heart, my innermost thoughts and what I've been through. Just as He knows who you are too, your heart and your innermost thoughts and what you've been through.

2 Chronicles 29:9 ASV — For, lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.

Greatest challenge...Self control

How to not let others affect you and change you, who you truly are from within. To be yourself, whether anyone understands you or not. You are the yolk from within the lining of that outer shell. Remembering that although the surface was cracked, you still have that lining that protects you, that protects that precious yolk...your inner being. 

How to not react to those who think they know more, to those who persecute you, who call you names or just plainly hate you. Those who antagonize you, who don't want to see you benefit from anything good, those who think they always know better and want you to change how you are and how you feel, how you think. Those who judge you or won't accept you just for being you. Those who want you to bend to their will. Those who think they're helping but are hurting you instead.

Don't judge them, push forward...

Jehovah’s Always by Our Side

Devote yourself to Jehovah and follow Jesus Christ, not a church or organization.
When you get baptized, get baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the holy spirit, in Christ Jesus, not in the name of religion (false doctrines). (Matthew 28:19)

Lean Upon Jehovah, it's the only way. Don't get lost by allowing others who don't understand you, determine how you should be. Don't rely on your own understanding, (Proverbs 3:5, 6) rely on Jehovah and learn from Him.

Satan knows what buttons to push to make one react, whether it's out of hurt or anger. He doesn't want you to lean on Jehovah or to follow Jesus and his example. He doesn't want you to know he is the one pulling the strings. That he is using those "especially close to you" to do his will, and that many will "unknowingly" do so.

The Bible...

The Bible is the most beautiful book anyone could ever possibly read, the future promise is beautiful, the inner works of how it's all to take place is necessary, as Jehovah's Name must be Vindicated.


Keep Your Eyes on the Big Issue

Psalm 83:18 ASV — That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth.

The Bible is not meant for you to understand it in its entirety, it's meant for the basic message that any child could understand, the beginning and the end, Genesis and Revelation, the Garden of Eden and Armageddon, the basic principles...do good, not bad. But, "most importantly", it's meant for guidance, the teachings within, which come from the greatest teacher on earth, Jehovah's Son, Jesus Christ. 

Learn From the Great Teacher
The best principles that can be found anywhere are those in the Bible.
Children can learn, not what some human says, but what their heavenly Father says.


Patient God...

2 Peter 3:9 ASV — The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Complete Heart...

The bible is not meant to be decoded, it's meant to be read with a complete heart, with love. If you are looking to gain something out of it, you will not get a clear picture, it will be distorted, you will be confused and you will not understand it. (James 1:22-24) Don't give up, have patience. Take the time, you will get there if it's what you truly want. The message that is meant for you will become clear, once you start reading it for yourself and you read it out of love and nothing more.

1 Chronicles 28:9 ASV — And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Jehovah searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

It takes time, especially for those who never knew Jehovah or that think that He and Jesus are one in the same, or for those who don't even believe Jehovah exists, but with persistence and true want for what is good with no self-interest, you will find Him, Jehovah will let Himself be found by you, because He wants you to know Him and He wants you to be saved by Him to believe in Him and truly love Him.

The Natural ability to understand will always be by Spirit...

I know Jehovah is our God, the Unique Creator, the Supreme Being, but He will always be my Father first, it's how I feel I know Him best, it's more personal to me. I've been judged for feeling this way, I've tried not to feel it, I was told I was wrong for it. But now I know better, I'm not a child anymore, (1 Corinthians 13:11, 12) the Spirit is what the Spirit is, and I cannot change it, nor do I want to...it's Beautiful, it makes me Happy and it's Peaceful. It's Jehovah's and I love Him for it.

1 Corinthians 14:2 ASV — For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
Jehovah knows who belong to Him. I am doing Jehovah's will and in sharing my story it is my hope that many who are sleeping will awaken. Even Jehovah's Witnesses themselves may not realize it, but this message is for them as well...many of them have put their faith in man and are listening to false teachings. Learn, take the time and get to know Jehovah, stop listening to "man" be it your family, friends, religion or government... do it for yourself, not them. Do it in private. (Matthew 6:6) When you do it for yourself, then and only then, can you do it for them.

The struggle of not fitting in to this world is still there, but I now know that Jehovah has been here all along and He has never left my side and that He has helped me. For that, I am completely grateful to Jehovah, I could never repay Him...none of us can, but we can love Him unconditionally and wholeheartedly... I know I do, very much so. I've returned home and found my long-lost Father..."o meu Pai Celestial, Jeová."

Jehovah Welcomes you Home

Devote yourself to Jehovah and follow Jesus Christ, not a church or organization.Failing Jehovah is not an option for me, I hope it's not one for you either.
  • After all, in the end, what is it we all want?
LOVE... and Jehovah is a God of Love. That's why Love Never Fails, because if you truly have it in you, you won't want to let it go and you will do what it takes to hold on to it, and you will not be greedy, you will share it with others. 

Psalm 97:10 ASV — O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

From A to Z
From Creation...the Beginning 
to Armageddon...the End.

Revelation 16:14 ASV — for they are spirits of demons, working signs; which go forth unto the kings of the whole world, to gather them together unto the war of the great day of God, the Almighty.

Where have Jehovah's Witnesses gone wrong? 

The same place every other religion has gone wrong, they depend on doctrines of men and don't lead with the key ingredient...LOVE. 
ALL religion has its good points, and ALL religion has it's bad, it's up to you the individual to know the difference...heart condition.

Actions speak louder than words...please lead by example.

Sleeping with The Enemy...The Harlot

Sin...opposites attract.


Isaiah 43:10 ASV — Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

Deuteronomy 31:28 ASV — Assemble unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.


  • Who make up some of the best Witnesses in the world today?

They are those who have committed serious sins. Why? Because they know what if feels like to be on both sides of the spectrum, they've lived the double life and know the differences. They know what it feels like to follow Satan's lead. They know what it's like to truly be in a Darkened world. They are the prostitutes, the tax collectors, (Matthew 21:31) they are the ones who may be less susceptible of being complacent, of thinking they are in the clear because they've been lifelong followers. We all live in Satan's world...it takes work to truly know who Jehovah is. If you really want to know, then slave for him by simply reading the bible. Read it for yourself, don't depend on others to do it for you. Take your time, have patience with it and he will get you there. Just be sure to do it for Love.

Please see: 
I've always remembered the Book of Genesis (Garden of Eden) and the Book of Revelation (Armageddon)

Something I've never forgotten and often repeated to myself...''As coisas anteriores já passaram" meaning: Revelation 21:4 "The former things have passed away."

These scriptures now make perfect sense to me...

Genesis 3:15 ASV — and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

Revelation 12:1 ASV — And a great sign was seen in heaven: a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars;

Revelation 12:13 ASV — And when the dragon saw that he was cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman that brought forth the man child.

Earth doesn't have to mean the planet; earth can be referred to a human. It's how heaven and earth testify, give witness. See link above for the Two Witnesses.




I heard a special talk last year when I first started going to the Kingdom Hall in Tannersville, PA, it was by an Elder who recommended that we have a SMAPS bar, Spiritual Protein, so I did...

I've begun to update this post, but in the meantime, I'd like to share how I've recently learned that many believe in the doctrine "Righteous by Faith" and that because Christ died for our sins and HE was righteous, by having faith in him, you are automatically considered righteous.

To say that it doesn't matter how much you sin, you're considered righteous, because you have faith in him is incorrect. That is a dangerous teaching when you don't comprehend what it means for one to be considered righteous by faith.

Some use it to say, "Once saved, always saved", and that is simply not true. 

True Faith is led by the Spirit. If your faith is not led by love, you don't have true faith.

1 Corinthians 13:2 ASV — And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and 👉IF I HAVE ALL FAITH, so as to remove mountains, but HAVE NOT LOVE, I AM NOTHING.

Romans 6:15 ASV — What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.

Romans 6:16-18 ASV — Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? But thanks be to God, that, whereas 👉ye were servants of sin, 👉ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered; and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.

Some do a nice job of explaining what it means, but others JUSTIFY unrepentant sinners and say it is simply okay because they have faith in Christ. That is a false understanding, you MUST be Christ-like and walk in his way. 

If you are resurrected in the Spirit, you must remain loyal or you will see death. (Hebrews 6:4-10)

Once saved, is not always saved. 
End update.

Fact ~

I used to practice Archery. I once shot a "Robin Hood", it's a very rare and almost, an impossible shot to make. For those who may not know what that means, it's when you shoot one arrow and the very next arrow literally lands on top of it "Bulls Eye". It was at an Archery place my husband took me to for practice. They took many pictures, I never saw them, but I believe he said they had them up on the wall. I only went there once so I don't remember where they were located and my husband said he doesn't remember either. I was about 5 months pregnant with my twin boys.

Zechariah 2:8 ASV — For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: After glory hath he sent me unto the nations which plundered you; for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
  • Who is Jehovah? 
He is a God with personality...
  • the Bull - Power, 
  • the Lion - Justice, 
  • the Eagle - Wisdom, 
  • the Man - Love
His cardinal attributes. Revelation 4:6-8

Serve Jehovah, Not Satan
All of us have a choice. Either we serve Jehovah or we serve Satan and his demons. We cannot do both. How wise it is to serve Jehovah!

Slave for Love or Slave for Destruction.
  • What does it mean to slave for Jehovah?
Psalm 1:1-2 ASV — Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, 
Nor standeth in the way of sinners, 
Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers: 
But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; 
And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

I've been a slave to Satan. I am thankful to Jehovah.
He showed me the Truth and it set me Free.

Jehovah's Sacred Secret

1 Corinthians 14:1-2 ASV — Follow after love; yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

Daniel 12:4 ASV — But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

Revelation 12:14 ASV — And there were given to the woman the two wings of the great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness unto her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

Ephesians 6:12 ASV — For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

What happens to Satan?

Revelation 12:9 ASV — And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.

Revelation 13:18 ASV — Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six.

Turn Satan on it's head 666 - you get 999 + 1 = 1,000 years, 
7th Day, Rest

Isaiah 60:22 ASV — The little one shall become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation; I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.

Matthew 15:24 ASV — But he answered and said, I was not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Luke 15:4 ASV — What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

Ecclesiastes 3:15 ASV — That which is hath been long ago; and that which is to be hath long ago been: and God seeketh again that which is passed away.

Revelation 20:2-3 ASV — And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a little time.

To Become a Soldier

What does it mean to be a Soldier?

I have much experience with this. In 1975 my oldest brother and his best friend were recruited and joined the Marines. I remember the day he left, we were in the middle of the street, my mom and I, she fell to her knees crying as we watched my brother and his best friend (with their backs to us) walk away and leave. I'll never forget how sad it was, how distraught my mom was. Since, life was never the same for my brother and we all still feel it to this very day. 

I remember seeing my brothers yearbook, one picture in particular stood out. They were stationed in Germany, it was a picture of the "3 monkeys" see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil...I believe it was my brother and 2 of his fellow soldiers. One had his ears covered, the other had his eyes covered and the other had his mouth covered. I remember them standing near the sand bags and their rifles.  

Recently, a few months ago, we learned of a young Marine who had ended his life, he was well known by my husband and his fellow workers. I'm uncertain of what part of the world he was in, but I believe it was in the Middle East. He was required to do something spur of the moment, something that had haunted him ever since. He did what he was commanded, but that command in the end killed him too.

My twin boys were recruited by the Military. First by the Marines. They were Seniors in high school. I remember when they were Juniors the pressure had already begun for them to enlist. My one son tried pressuring me into signing something that would give them the right to enlist at 17, I wouldn't.

My boys turned 18 and became Seniors. It was a Friday and the boys took the ASVAB test, one at Dunkin Donuts and the other at the school Library. They scored pretty well, well enough to join any of the 4 branches.

I remember it was Sunday, when they announced that they were headed to MEPS on Tuesday. I was in the kitchen cooking, I can still feel the blood draining from my face. I had previously asked that they wait until they were done with school, until they were at least 23, old enough to know the difference. Live life a bit and decide then. Well, that didn't happen. When Monday approached, I let the boys sleep in, they didn't go to school. I called the school, begging to speak to the guidance counselor, I explained to the woman who answered the phone my desperation of not wanting my boys to be taken out of school the next day to go to MEPS. She'll probably remember me, like my mom, I was hysterically crying.

Soon after, the guidance counselor called and I explained to her that I didn't want to the boys taken out of school on Tuesday to go to MEPS, I explicitly told her that I did not want them to go and that they are not given permission by me. She told me because they were 18 and "signed something" that there was nothing I could do. HEARTBROKEN and dismayed, on Tuesday my boys went to MEPS, in Harrisburg. They were part of the Delayed Entry Program because they had to graduate first.

*UPDATE: 03/22/21
*Where else can you find MEPS?


I decided I would look into the school policy and soon after learned what I felt in my heart. The School Policy for the State of PA, no child can be dismissed from school without the parents permission up to the age of 19 if the student resides and is still dependent of the parents. The emails went flying, I knew I had a lawsuit, but who would take it? It's the Military. I had it all worked out, the timeline, the emails, peoples names, school records. No one could help, unless I turned it into a political scandal and reached out to the "opposing party" no one is going to take on the military.

Update: I learned in September 2020 that the Superintendent of the boys school is a Jehovah's Witness. He was sent many emails by me in 2017 when all of this took place, not once did I get a response or any help from him.

Since, I convinced my one son to leave the Marines, he later decided he wanted to be a cop, so he joined the Army instead. I'm Proud of my boys, because they didn't choose to join the Military out of bad intentions, they did it for good intentions, as most do. 

They are willing to give the ultimate sacrifice to protect those they love. Most who aren't forced to join, will do it for that reason, it doesn't matter what part of the world you live in. Man is killing man, and Man is killing himself, to what end? What has anyone truly gained from it...nothing. More continue to die, more continue to get sick and more continue to get influenced that they're doing it for the right reasons. You're not, you're doing it for the one who really controls this world and right now it's Satan.

I've since learned quite a bit more about the military...words that cannot be spoken. We're all currently lying in the power of the wicked one. It saddens me to know that some are actually making that choice, knowing that they are doing Satan's Will and continue to do it anyway. They know the difference and don't care...Satan's chosen ones.




Sad to say, but many don't believe in God or just stopped believing in Him. Yet, there are many who believe they are doing God's Will, who really want to, but they are not. This is what Satan wants, the Master of Illusion, he wants to mask everything with pretty lights. 

Many know parts of the bible, but they know mainly what they've been taught to them, what's been programmed. Let no man deceive you...Ephesians 5:6. Some don't want to know more, they want to stick to their beliefs and that it. That is their choice...free will. 

When you read the bible, do it for yourself and no one else, Jehovah's message is in there for you. Start from the beginning, use His name, He wants you to know him. He Loves You.


If you're feeling Lost, now is the time to be Found. No one can be you, never will anyone ever truly know you, but Jehovah does. He is our Unique Creator and he knows that you too are unique, we all are. It's how He made us. Give Him your greatest treasure...your Heart and He will give you His...LOVE.



Update: 06/28/21 ~ Much has changed. 
Smoke and mirrors, it was an illusion...I still believe many are super kind and truly love God, but sadly, they are misled and follow a false god...the Governing Body (GB) of Jehovah's Witnesses. Their love is conditional if you question GB and their teachings.

Here's a scripture that a kind brother from my Kingdom Hall shared with me. Words spoken by Jesus, it's beautiful and makes perfect sense.


7 As you go, preach, saying: ‘The Kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.’+ 8 Cure the sick,+ raise up the dead, make lepers clean, expel demons. You received free, give free.+

The TRUTH will set you FREE.
