Jehovah's Witnesses - To my brothers and sisters!?

Question

I am curious as to how you all enjoyed the new DVD, "Pursue Goals that Honor God". I personally loved how thought-provoking it was. Afterwards, my husband and I both agreed to both re-arrange our priorities to do more for our wonderful God, Jehovah.

Side-note: I thought Jonathan was the best actor through-out the film, lol.

For all of those who answer with hateful comments and are NOT one of Jehovah's Witnesses; you do realize that your comments are swept away like dust in the wind, right?

Answer 1

Fabulous..

Answer 2

I really enjoyed it!! I agree, Jonathan was very good. His facial expressions were so real, you could just feel the conflict he was experiencing. I also thought it was interesting how much Philetus sounded like certain ones we see on Y!A....not mentioning any names, but they are easy to identify, and they haven't changed much in 1900 years.

I hope the Faithful and Discreet Slave continues to provide us with these wonderful dramas.

Answer 3

Jehovah's Witnesses have always taken advantage of the latest technology to further their ministry.

Between 1910 and 1914, Jehovah's Witnesses incrementally released a monumental presentation of color pictures, moving pictures, and sound entitled "Photodrama of Creation" (excerpts are available on YouTube and other places). It seems remarkable to recognize that this film is nearly a century old, in color with synchronized sound!

Before and after that, Jehovah's Witnesses were already experimenting with networks of telephone tie-ins and radio broadcasts. Even in those early years of radio and telephone, those early Witnesses sometimes presented simultaneous live audio of a bible discourse to perhaps of a million listeners.

By the 1920s and 1930s, Jehovah's Witnesses designed and manufactured portable record players which their ministers carried from door to door. The minister could play record albums of bible discourses for householders in rural areas where transportation was still mostly by walking and horse. Of course, the recorded discourse was followed up by an offer of bible-based literature and a continuing personal discussion.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Jehovah's Witnesses actually designed, built, and programmed their own custom computers to perform phototypesetting in dozens of different language (no commercial system had yet been developed, and no computer platform had yet emerged as a clear standard). In the late 1980s, they reprogrammed this software to run on standard high-end PC computers, allowing quality translation work to be performed even by a remote missionary on a laptop, perhaps miles from air conditioning or a power grid. These technology innovations enable Jehovah's Witnesses to release The Watchtower simultaneously in 145 languages (another dozen or so languages are not simultaneous).

While there were other early film releases, the 1990s saw a batch of new video and DVD releases by Jehovah's Witnesses. Soon, many short videos were made available on the official websites of Jehovah's Witnesses (a selection are listed at the end of this answer).

Jehovah's Witnesses will continue to utilize whatever technologies seem appropriate to better educate their adherents, students, and the public about issues related to true Christianity and the bible. What better choice of print, sound, video, and internet virtual "association" than that produced by the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses?

(1 Corinthians 15:33) Do not be misled. Bad associations spoil useful habits.

Answer 9

Isn't coming to Yahoo Answers considered interacting with those who are worldly and not of the Truth?

Shouldn't Jehova's Witnesses who are prioritizing their lives to devote more to Jehova stay away from places like this that are full of evil people like atheists and Buddhists and Wiccans and Catholics and Mormons?

I'm just sayin'.
