Wow...paragraph 12 in the Watchtower today. How timely. One of our elders made a comment about how brothers and sisters used to smoke until the light got brighter and they realized it was defiling their bodies so they made the adjustment. He may not have made the connection with his comment to what is going on right now with the jab.....but several of us did.

One of our elders made a comment about how brothers and sisters used to smoke until the light got brighter and they realized it was defiling their bodies so they made the adjustment. He may not have made the connection with his comment to what is going on right now with the jab.....but several of us did. A friend in my congregation was so discouraged yesterday because during the service meeting someone was making very unkind comments about ones who have chosen to not get the jab. Saying how "stupid and uncaring" ones were.
Laura Mellinger The ones who have not taken this jab are showing strength and a loving attitude. Others can be insensitive by making a judgement they have no right to make and thinking their opinion is the only one that matters. Jesus said, while on the torture stake, "forgive them father, for they know not what they do". When we follow the crowd in these serious matters, what does that say about us?

Others can be insensitive by making a judgement they have no right to make and thinking their opinion is the only one that matters. Jesus said, while on the torture stake, "forgive them father, for they know not what they do". When we follow the crowd in these serious matters, what does that say about us? Are we really going through the narrow path? When someone expresses his or her opinion in front of an audience about this so called vaccine, are they really showing the love that we are suppose to be noted for. Jesus said to have love for the whole association of brothers. The VAX spreads this disease faster than anything else can. It is destroying the immune system that Jehovah has already given us. It is killing people. So much harm has already been done by these shots and the boosters that I just want to cry. When people say these hurtful things, they are causing divisions and pain to their brothers and sisters. This is how Satan is disrupting the unity and progress we are needing to make. When their eyes are finally opened to how deadly this shot really is and they will, what will they be thinking then. I think of young Daniel who stood up in behalf of Jehovah and stood firm. Do not be disillusioned Lori, my dear sister, we are under attack. At times I feel alone because everyone around me has the shot but we are not alone. Remember the example of Elijah. He felt alone too but Jehovah showed assured him he was not alone. You have nothing to feel bad about!
