Also we put our hope, trust, protection and our life's in our God Jehovah's arms and trust in his son to follow thru with his fathers wishes to protect us. Nothing that any imperfect human or government can do....

Originally posted by galveston75I expected a couple responses on this but not getting anything at all speaks volumes..... It would seem that most here do believe that Jesus is alive in heaven, and agree that he did speak those words of teaching others just as it is written in the bible and that he actually did do that door to door ministry and that he did indeed command his followers to do just that and that so far he has not told his followers to stop.
So why do we not fight or protest on the streets as that seems to be the popular answer that so many express today?
No we will never do that but we will go thru all the legal avenues that are at our disposal in the court systems. Sometimes they work in out favor, sometimes the don't.
If the legal court systems set up by a country do not work for us ...[text shortened]... r even worse put to death, we know we will be resurrected just as Jesus knew he was going to be.
Maybe finding argument in that is impossible and better left alone? Would seem so.

robbie carrobie's farewell message is thus:
Thank you for those friends I have made. I have learned a lot since my time here and I am thankful to all of my teachers. Sadly this is no place for a Jehovah's Witness because of religious intolerance, ignorance, outright bigotry and lies.
If this is true, why then isn't Russia "no place for a Jehovah's Witness"?
