Vi har också flera andra skolor, till exempel Skolan i rikets tjänst, Pionjärskolan, Skolan för kristna förkunnare, Skolan för kretstillsyningsmän och deras hustrur och Skolan för medlemmar av avdelningskontorens kommittéer och deras hustrur. De här skolorna har gjort mycket för att bygga upp förkunnarnas andlighet och stärka deras tro.
Regarding the form of the verb rendered "is misleading " at Revelation 12: 9, one reference work says that it" indicates a continuous action that has become a habitual character. "
We have also several other schools, such as the Kingdom Ministry School, the School for Kingdom Ministry School, the School for Kingdom Ministry School, the School for circuit overseers, and their wives, as well as the School for Branch Committee members, and their wives.

Angående den form av det verb som återges med " vilseleder " i Uppenbarelseboken 12: 9 förklarar ett uppslagsverk att den " anger en pågående handling som har blivit ett inrotat karaktärsdrag ."
Take into consideration a wrongdoer's background, his motives, and his limitations.
Concerning the form of the verb rendered "is misleading " at Revelation 12: 9, one reference work explains that it" suggests an ongoing act that has become a calm person. "

Tänk på individens bakgrund, hans inställning och hans begränsningar.
Instead of thinking that he himself was great, David ascribed deliverance from all his enemies to Jehovah and said of God: "You will give me your shield of salvation, and it is your humility that makes me great. "
Consider the background, his attitude, and his limitations.

I stället för att tycka att han själv var stor tillskrev han Jehova befrielsen från alla sina fiender och sade om Gud: " Du kommer att ge mig din räddnings sköld, och det är din ödmjukhet som gör mig stor. "
When that takes place, true worshippers will have special reason to use the expression "Hallelujah " in a respectful way.
Instead of feeling that he was great, Jehovah condemned his deliverance from all his enemies and said about God: "You will give me your shield of salvation, and it is your humility that makes me great. "

När detta blir en verklighet kommer de sanna tillbedjarna att ha en särskild anledning att respektfullt använda uttrycket " halleluja ."
He gains no satisfaction from it.
When that becomes a reality, true worshippers will have a special reason to use respectfully the expression "memories. "

Han blir inte tillfreds.
(a) Why can we not expect Jehovah to remove all distressing situations now?
He will not be satisfied.

a) Varför kan vi inte förvänta att Jehova genast ska ta bort allt som orsakar sorg?
What could have affected Saul's conscience?
(a) Why should we not expect Jehovah to immediately remove everything that cause distress?

Vad kan ha påverkat Sauls samvete?
If all the sheep were to lose their first love, the "lampstand, " or congregation, would no longer exist.
What may have affected Saul's conscience?

Om alla fåren förlorade sin första kärlek, skulle " lampstället ," dvs. församlingen, inte längre existera.
Soon, though, you may face trials that will test your faith and resilience.
If all the sheep lost their first love, "the congregation, " would no longer exist.

Men sedan kanske du drabbas av prövningar som sätter din tro och din andliga återhämtningsförmåga på prov.
If you are imprisoned or otherwise punished because of your resolute stand for true worship, pray for the strength to defend your faith with boldness and to endure whatever persecution may come. - Read Acts 4: 27 - 31.
Then you may face trials that put your faith and your spiritual strength to the test.

(Läs Apostlagärningarna 4: 27 - 31.)
How grateful we are that Jehovah has lovingly preserved such vital information in his written Word, the Bible!
(Read Acts 4: 27 - 31.)

Vi är verkligen tacksamma för att Jehova har bevarat sådana viktiga upplysningar i sitt skrivna ord, Bibeln!
Taking along with him a remnant of God's people and contributed funds, Ezra goes from Babylon to Jerusalem.
How grateful we are that Jehovah has preserved such important information recorded in his written Word, the Bible!

Esra tar med sig en kvarleva av Guds folk, och även de bidrag som getts, och reser från Babylon till Jerusalem.
When we preach the good news, hearers have the opportunity to become subjects of God's Kingdom.
Ezra takes a remnant of God's people, as well as the contribution given, and traveling from Babylon to Jerusalem.

När vi predikar de goda nyheterna får de som lyssnar möjlighet att bli undersåtar till Guds kungarike.
Since the Governing Body is neither inspired nor infallible, what questions arise?
Preaching the good news brings those who listen to become subjects of God's Kingdom.

Vilka frågor uppstår med tanke på att den styrande kretsen inte är ofelbar?
(Read.)
What questions arise with regard to the fact that the Governing Body is not infallible?

(Läs.)
Well, what did Jesus do when he saw his apostles, whose faith had temporarily weakened, at the appointed place of meeting?
(Read.)

Ja, vad gjorde Jesus när han såg sina apostlar, vilkas tro tillfälligt hade försvagats, vid den anvisade mötesplatsen?
It promotes faith in Jesus Christ, who died so that we might gain everlasting life and who is now ruling as King of God's Kingdom.
Indeed, what did Jesus do when observing his apostles, whose faith had temporarily weaken, at the assigned meeting?

Den framhåller också tron på Jesus Kristus, som dog för att vi ska kunna få evigt liv och som nu är kung i Guds rike.
" Follow Jehovah fully, ' as did Caleb of ancient Israel.
It also highlights faith in Jesus Christ, who died so that we might gain everlasting life and who is now ruling as King of God's Kingdom.

Följ Jehova helt och fullt, alldeles som Kaleb i det forntida Israel gjorde.
The shepherds and dukes (or, "princes, " NEB) in this implausible army are the congregation elders.
Follow Jehovah fully, as Caleb did in ancient Israel.

Dessa herdar och stamhövdingar (" furstar ," Svenska Folkbibeln) är våra församlingsäldste.
But he said that I shouldn't read them because Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in Jesus.
These shepherds and dukes (" princes, " The New International Version) The New International Version) are our congregation elders.

Men han sa att jag inte borde läsa dem eftersom Jehovas vittnen inte tror på Jesus.
What about those who "go with " them?
But he said that I should not read them because Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in Jesus.

Men hur är det med dem som valt att " gå med " dem?
Yet, I know that Jehovah is more pleased with my service now than when I was watching pornography, and his view is the one that really matters. "
But what about those who choose to "go with " them?

Men jag vet att Jehova tycker bättre om min tjänst nu än när jag tittade på pornografi, och det är hans åsikt som betyder något. "
2, 4.
But I know that Jehovah feels better about my service now than when I looked at pornography, and it is his view that means anything. "

2, 4.
Just think, though, about the resurrection.
2, 4.

Men tänk bara på uppståndelsen.

Hur visar vi att vi är lojala mot Jehova när vi ska fatta viktiga beslut?
No matter how long you have been married, give thought to what you personally can say or do to strengthen your marriage.
How do we show that we are loyal to Jehovah when we are making important decisions?

Det är därför det är så viktigt att en man och en hustru som tjänar Jehova samarbetar med varandra.
Be Zealous for Jehovah's House!
How important it is, then, that a husband and wife serve Jehovah together!

David also thought out a strategy for deceiving the Philistine king.
[ Picture on page 28]

David tänkte också ut en strategi för att vilseleda den filisteiske kungen.
As a result, he framed "trouble in the name of the law. "
David also had an strategy to mislead the Philistine king.

Därför skapade han svårigheter i lagens namn.
These questions will be answered in the following article.
Hence, he created difficulties in the name of the Law.

Dessa frågor kommer att besvaras i följande artikel.
So the death of James had not plunged them into despair; nor had it caused them to view prayer as ineffective.
These questions will be answered in the following article.

Jakobs död hade alltså inte fått dem att misströsta eller tycka att det var meningslöst att be.
As a Pharisee who had been educated "at the feet of Gamaliel, instructed according to the strictness of the ancestral Law, " Paul already had some knowledge of the Scriptures.
Thus, Jacob's death had not moved them to despair or find it futile to pray.

Som farisé, uppfostrad " vid Gamaliels fötter " och " undervisad enligt den fäderneärvda lagens stränghet ," hade Paulus redan viss kunskap i Skrifterna.
Those "400 years " of affliction evidently began in 1913 B.C.E. when Ishmael mocked Isaac at the time of his being weaned, and they ended when the Israelites made their exodus out of Egypt in 1513 B.C.E.
As a Pharisee, "the feet of Gamaliel " and" educated according to the Mosaic Law, " Paul already had some knowledge of the Scriptures.

De här fyra hundra åren av förtryck började 1913 f.v.t. när Ismael hånade Isak i samband med att han blev avvand, och de slutade när israeliterna gick ut ur Egypten 1513 f.v.t.
Really, it is these friends who are being disloyal to you, not the reverse.
Those four centuries of oppression began in 613 B.C.E. when the mate taunted Isaac in the case of 1313 B.C.E. when he was released from Egypt in 1513 B.C.E.

Det är faktiskt de här vännerna som är illojala mot dig, inte tvärtom.
How do you feel now about the Bible book of Leviticus?
In fact, those brothers are disloyal to you, not to the contrary.

Vad tycker du om Tredje Moseboken efter den här artikeln?
However, in that same letter, Paul also warned against a human tendency that if not kept under control, could diminish one's zeal for God's service.
How do you feel about the book of Leviticus after this article?

Men i samma brev varnade han också för en mänsklig benägenhet som, om den inte hålls under kontroll, skulle kunna minska någons iver i tjänsten för Gud.
Of course, none of the events just mentioned escaped Satan's notice.
But in the same letter, he also warned against human tendency if it is not kept under control, could diminish a zeal for God's service.

Inget av det som nämnts här undgick naturligtvis Satans uppmärksamhet.
[ Picture on page 18]
Of course, none mentioned here avoided Satan's attention.

[ Bild på sidan 18]
Jesus Christ, the preeminent Witness of Jehovah, affirmed the truth by the things he taught and by the way he lived and died.
[ Picture on page 18]

Jesus Kristus, Jehovas allra främsta vittne, fastställde sanningen genom det han lärde och genom det sätt varpå han levde och dog.
" Then let those in Judea begin fleeing to the mountains, and let those in the midst of her withdraw, and let those in the country places not enter into her; because these are days for meting out justice, that all the things written may be fulfilled. "
Jesus Christ, Jehovah's greatest witness, established the truth by teaching and by the way he lived and died.

" Då bör de som är i Judeen fly till bergen, och de som är inne i staden bör dra ut, och de som är ute på landet bör inte gå in i staden; detta är nämligen dagar för rättskipning, när allt som står skrivet skall uppfyllas. "
They add to our joy by showing personal interest in us.
" Then let those in Judea begin fleeing to the mountains, and let those in the midst of her withdraw, and let those in the land not enter into the city; for this is the days of justice, when all that is written. "

Vi blir glada när de visar oss personligt intresse.
Or if someone fails to dedicate his life to Jehovah, will he be forever classified as someone "unsuitable "?
We rejoice when they show us personal interest.

Kommer de för alltid att räknas till de " odugliga " fiskarna?
Instead of worrying, some positive action on your part may produce good results.
Will they always be counted to the "good - for - nothing fish "?

Så i stället för att oroa sig är det bättre att ta tag i problemen och försöka lösa dem.
Need for Seeking Jehovah
So rather than worry, it is better to get into problems and try to solve them.

Vi behöver söka Jehova
But the heart is treacherous, and we may not even realize how deeply "the things in the world " are affecting us.
We Need to Seek Jehovah

Men hjärtat är förrädiskt, och vi kanske inte ens inser hur mycket det som finns i världen påverkar oss.
So, what can help us to want to read and study God's Word?
However, the heart is treacherous, and we may not even see how much things in the world affect us.

Vad kan då hjälpa oss att önska läsa och studera Guds ord?
5: 8; 12: 2) Let us consider some aspects of full - time service that could make you very happy.
What, then, can help us to study and study God's Word?

5: 8; 12: 2) Vi ska se varför heltidstjänsten kan ge så mycket glädje.
Abraham and Sarah were called upon to leave behind their homeland to pursue true worship and await the fulfillment of Jehovah's promise.
5: 8; 12: (2) Let us see why full - time service can bring so much joy.

Abraham och Sara uppmanades att lämna sitt hemland för den sanna tillbedjans skull och vänta på att Jehovas löften skulle uppfyllas.
And I will let myself be found by you. " - Jer.
Abraham and Sarah were urged to leave their homeland for the sake of true worship and wait for the fulfillment of Jehovah's promises.

Och jag skall låta mig finnas av er. "
For example, if Abraham and Sarah had kept remembering Ur, "they would have had opportunity to return. "
And I will let myself be found by you. "

Om Abraham och Sara hade fortsatt att tänka på Ur " skulle de ha haft tillfälle att vända tillbaka ."
2: 7.
If Abraham and Sarah had kept on thinking about Ur, "they would have had the opportunity to return. "

2: 7.
How did Paul view his personal share in the race?
2: 7.

Hur såg Paulus på sin insats i loppet?
Whatever natural aptitude Bezalel may have had was enhanced by holy spirit.
How did Paul view his work in the race?

Helig ande förstärkte de medfödda förmågor Besalel kan ha haft.
Can You Explain?
Holy spirit strengthens the born abilities Bezalel may have had.

Kan du förklara?
They may lie, cheat, or steal and then try to persuade us to "follow after the crowd " by joining them or at least by covering up for them.
Can You Explain?

När de ljuger, fuskar eller stjäl kanske de försöker övertala oss att " följa mängden " och göra likadant eller att åtminstone inte avslöja dem.
Whatever the source of that persecution - family, neighbors, or governmental authorities - it may particularly affect one who "has no root in himself, " who lacks spiritual depth.
When they lie, lying, or steal, they may try to persuade us to "follow the crowd " and to do the same or at least not expose them.

Oavsett varifrån förföljelsen kommer - från familjen, omgivningen eller myndigheterna - är det särskilt svårt för dem som inte har någon " rot ," dvs. saknar andligt djup.
They may have read about it in the Bible book of Exodus, heard the story told, or seen a movie that was based on the event.
No matter where persecution comes - from family, environment, or governmental authorities - it is especially difficult for those who have "no root. "

De kan ha läst om det i Andra Moseboken i Bibeln, hört talas om det eller sett någon film som bygger på det.
Such attributes put an immeasurable gulf between humans and all other living creatures on earth.
They may have read about it in the Bible book of Exodus, heard about it, or seen a movie based on it.

Allt det här gör att vi människor verkligen särskiljer oss från allt annat som lever på jorden.
Moreover, their physical closeness could well represent the spiritual unity of the whole nation when all "the tribes of Jah " assembled for worship.
All of this puts humans apart from all other things that are living on earth.

Man skulle också kunna dra en parallell mellan den fysiska närheten mellan hemmen och den andliga enhet som hela nationen visade när " Jahs stammar " samlades för att tillbe.
The " collecting out ' of the weedlike imitation Christians has been clearly recognized by an ever - increasing great crowd of sheeplike ones.
It could also draw a parallel between the physical bond of home and the spiritual unity of the whole nation when "the tribes of Jah " gathered to worship.

Att de ogräslika, falska kristna har samlats ihop har tydligt kunnat ses av en ständigt växande stor skara av fårlika människor.
Victor, an elder and pioneer in Africa, recalls: "When I was young, an elder asked me a few well - chosen questions about my goals.
The wheatlike Christians have been gathered together has been clearly seen by a constant growing crowd of sheeplike ones.

Victor, som är äldste och pionjär i Afrika, säger: " När jag var ung var det en äldstebroder som ställde några tänkvärda frågor om mina mål.
That solemn promise provided assurance that God's faithful Servant would continue as "a light of the nations, " liberating those in spiritual darkness. - Read Isaiah 49: 8, 9.
Says one elder, who is an elder in Africa: "When I was young, an elder asked some questions about my goals.

Detta högtidliga löfte var en försäkran om att Guds trogne tjänare även i fortsättningen skulle vara " ett ljus för nationerna " och befria människor ur andligt mörker. (Läs Jesaja 49: 8, 9.)
Their Bible - based hope is that Jesus Christ will resurrect them from the dead, allowing them to appear in spiritual perfection before the presence of God with great joy.
This solemn promise was a guarantee that God's faithful servants would continue to be "a light of the nations " and deliver people from spiritual darkness. - Read Isaiah 49: 8, 9.

Deras hopp är att Jesus Kristus ska uppväcka dem från de döda, så att de som fullkomliga andevarelser med stor glädje kan träda fram inför Guds närvaro.
Satan's world was not kind to them.
Their hope is that Jesus Christ will resurrect them from the dead so that they as perfect spirit creatures can present themselves with great joy before God's presence.

Satans värld behandlade dem inte precis med silkesvantar.
(b) How do you feel about what Jehovah and Jesus have done for you?
Satan's world did not treat them exactly as weanants.

b) Hur känner du det när du tänker på vad Jehova och Jesus har gjort för dig?
He complained about the "cursed gnats and frogs " and the" villainous " water.
(b) How do you feel about what Jehovah and Jesus have done for you?

Han klagade över de " fördömda myggorna och grodorna " och det " dåliga " vattnet.
It is a symbolic place for meting out God's judgment.
He complained about "the likes of the nations, " and the" bad waters " of the sea.

Det är en symbolisk plats där verkställandet av Guds dom äger rum.
" The Uniting Bond of Peace "
It is a symbolic place where the execution of divine judgment takes place.

" Fridens sammanhållande band "
He might even be killed.
" The uniting bond of Peace "

Men profeten Agabos sa att om Paulus begav sig dit skulle han bli gripen.
However, his loyalty was tested when David's son Absalom won the heart of many and sought to take Jerusalem and the throne.
However, the prophet Peter said that if Paul went there, he would be arrested.

Men hans lojalitet prövades när folket slöt upp bakom Davids son Absalom när han försökte ta över Jerusalem och kungamakten.
3, 4. (a) How do you feel when someone gives you a gift?
However, his loyalty was tested when the people joined David's son Absalom in trying to cross Jerusalem and the kingship.

3, 4. a) Hur känner du när någon ger dig en gåva?
(b) What could undermine our unity?
3, 4. (a) How do you feel when someone gives you a gift?

b) Vad skulle kunna tära på vår enhet?
Like a beautiful garden enclosed by a hedge or a wall, which could be accessed only through a locked gate, the Shulammite maiden made her tender affections available only to her future husband.
(b) What might damage our unity?

Likt en vacker trädgård som var inhägnad av en häck eller mur och som man kunde komma in i enbart genom en port som hölls låst, gjorde den shulemitiska flickan sin ömma tillgivenhet tillgänglig endast för sin framtida man.
Make suitable application of the study material so that each member of the family benefits. - Ps. 148: 12, 13.
Like a beautiful garden, the Shulammite girl made his tender affection available only for her future husband.

Det är givande att lära känna de äldre vännerna.
Jehovah's prophecy recorded at Genesis 3: 15 is being wonderfully fulfilled.
It is rewarding to know the elderly.

Jehovas profetia som finns nedtecknad i 1 Moseboken 3: 15 får en underbar uppfyllelse.
Why should we trust in Jehovah?
Jehovah's prophecy recorded at Genesis 3: 15 has a wonderful fulfillment.

Varför bör vi förtrösta på Jehova?
How can we use illustrations in our own teaching?
Why should we trust in Jehovah?

Hur kan vi efterlikna honom?
As our loving Shepherd, he tenderly cares for all our physical and spiritual needs.
How can we imitate him?

Som en kärleksfull herde ser han till att vi får allt vi behöver både fysiskt och andligt.
2 Why Must We "Keep on the Watch "?
As a loving Shepherd, Jehovah provides everything we need physically and spiritually.

13 Varför måste vi hela tiden vara vaksamma?
Rather, articles that discuss specific illnesses or disorders are intended to inform readers of the facts as they are currently known.
13 Why Keep on the Watch?

Artiklar om olika sjukdomar är i stället avsedda att upplysa läsaren om de fakta som för närvarande är kända.
Because they accepted the negative report of ten spies, the Israelites had to wander in the wilderness for 40 years.
Instead, the articles about various diseases are designed to inform the readers of the facts that are known.

På grund av att israeliterna lyssnade till den negativa rapport som tio av spejarna gav, blev de tvungna att vandra i vildmarken i 40 år.
Although they are peaceable with all men, they do fight a spiritual battle against very powerful opponents.
Because of listening to the negative report ten of the spies, the Israelites had to walk in the wilderness for 40 years.

De håller fred med alla människor, men däremot utkämpar de en andlig strid mot mycket mäktiga motståndare.
He takes our vows seriously, and we must fulfill them in order to have his approval.
They keep peace with all men, but they fight a spiritual fight against much powerful opposers.

Han tar dem på fullt allvar, och vi måste infria dem för att få hans godkännande.
Satan is not a sporadic deceiver. Rather, he is unrelenting in his efforts to mislead mankind.
He takes them seriously, and we must pay them to gain his approval.

Satan uppträder inte som bedragare bara då och då, utan han är obeveklig och outtröttlig i sin strävan att vilseleda mänskligheten.
JEHOVAH GOD has shown his love for us in countless ways.
Satan does not act merely when and then, but he is unrealistic and tirelessly in his attempt to mislead mankind.

JEHOVA GUD har visat sin kärlek till oss på många olika sätt.
To prevent jealousy from taking root in our heart, we must strive to see things from God's standpoint, viewing our brothers and sisters as members of the same Christian body.
JEHOVAH GOD has shown his love for us in many ways.

För att avundsjuka inte ska bli en del av vår personlighet behöver vi försöka se saker på samma sätt som Jehova gör. Vi kan tänka på att våra bröder och systrar alla tillhör en och samma kropp, den kristna församlingen.
Why and how did Jehovah elevate his Servant?
To avoid jealousy, we need to try to view things Jehovah's way of doing so, remembering that our brothers and sisters are members of the same body, the Christian congregation.

Varför och hur upphöjde Jehova sin tjänare?
For example, when announcing his commission in the synagogue of Nazareth, Jesus read from the scroll of Isaiah: "Jehovah's spirit is upon me, because he anointed me to declare good news to the poor. "
Why and how did Jehovah honor his servants?

När han till exempel tillkännagav vad som var hans uppdrag läste han ur en skriftrulle med Jesajas profetia: " Jehovas ande är över mig, eftersom han har smort mig till att förkunna goda nyheter för de fattiga. "
Rather, she looks for items that are ripe. She wants fruit that has good taste and aroma and that offers healthy nutrients.
For example, when he declared his commission, he read from a scroll with Isaiah's prophecy: "Jehovah's spirit is upon me, because he anointed me to declare good news to the poor. "

I stället tittar du efter frukt som är fräsch och fin och som både smakar och luktar gott.
12, 13. (a) A pioneer should do what if he is having trouble reaching his hour goal?
Instead, look forward to producing fruit as well as taste and smell.

12, 13. a) Vad kan en pionjär som har svårt att nå timkravet göra?
I would be happy to show it to you in the Bible. "
12, 13. (a) What might a pioneer who is struggling to reach the pioneer requirement?

Jag skulle gärna vilja visa dig det i Bibeln. "
What were people in Noah's day preoccupied with?
I would like to show you what the Bible says. "

Bröllop som är värdiga i Guds och människors ögon
Likewise today, Jehovah deeply appreciates our contributions to the worldwide work.
Marriage Who Are Worthy in God's Eyes and Men

Det är på liknande sätt i vår tid. Jehova sätter stort värde på våra bidrag till det världsvida verket.
For instance, how do we respond to Jehovah's overwhelming generosity?
Likewise today, Jehovah deeply appreciates our contributions to the worldwide brotherhood.

För att ta ett exempel: Hur reagerar vi på Jehovas överväldigande frikostighet?
Those who were raised before Jesus, such as by Elijah and Elisha, did not live on endlessly. They died again and saw corruption in the grave.
For example, how do we react to Jehovah's overwhelming generosity?

De som uppväcktes före Jesus, till exempel av Elia och Elisa, levde ju inte vidare i det oändliga, utan dog igen och förmultnade i graven.
7: 14; 2 Pet. 2: 9. REMEMBER EACH SUCCESS
Those who were resurrected before Jesus, such as Elijah and Elisha, lived, not on the unending basis, but died again and fell asleep in the grave.

Men vi lever i en miljö som hotar vår andlighet.
Do I encourage others to downplay such Bible counsel? '
However, we live in an environment that threatens our spirituality.

Uppmuntrar jag andra att ta lätt på sådana råd från Bibeln?
We must " tie them as a sign upon our hand ' in that our actions - represented by our hands - must show that we are obedient to Jehovah.
Do I encourage others to take such advice lightly? '

Vi måste " binda dem som ett tecken på... [vår] hand " på så sätt att våra handlingar - representerade av våra händer - visar att vi är lydiga mot Jehova.
In most lands, the majority of those present are women.
We must " bind them as a sign of [our] hand " in that our actions - represented by our hands - demonstrate that we are obedient to Jehovah.

I de flesta länder är majoriteten av de närvarande kvinnor.
The "ten men out of all the languages of the nations " represent the great crowd of other sheep.
In most lands, the majority of women are present.

De " tio män av alla språk " som vill gå med dem är en bild av den stora skaran av andra får.
Sadly, after receiving discipline, some fail to see past the pain and even draw away from God and his people.
The "ten men of all the languages " who want to go with them represent the great crowd of other sheep.

Sorgligt nog blir en del som tillrättavisas så sårade att de drar sig bort från Jehova och församlingen.
The Ministry Brings Refreshment
Sadly, some who discipline become so hurt that they turn away from Jehovah and the congregation.

Tjänsten ger ny styrka
Despite the wicked conditions of his day, Micah lived up to Jehovah's requirements.
Sharing in Our Ministry

Mika uppfyllde Jehovas krav trots de onda förhållanden som då rådde.
• What momentous events lie ahead?
Micah fulfilled Jehovah's requirements despite the wicked conditions that then existed.

• Vilka avgörande händelser ligger framför oss?
Christendom's clergy are lawless in that they have misled millions by promoting teachings, holidays, and behavior contrary to the Bible.
• What momentous events lie ahead?

Kristenhetens prästerskap är laglöst på så sätt att det har vilselett miljontals människor genom att förespråka eller godta läror, helgdagar och ett uppförande som strider mot Bibeln.
Because they have a good relationship with God, all who fear Jehovah lack nothing of lasting value.
Christendom's clergy are lawless in that it has misled millions by promoting or accepting teachings, holidays, and conduct that violate the Bible.

De som fruktar Jehova saknar inte något som är av bestående värde, och det beror på att de har ett gott förhållande till honom.
He relates: "I finally realized that I needed to be more concerned about the brothers than about myself.

I mer än två hundra år hade israeliterna varit slavar i Egypten, där invånarna tillbad de döda, använde avgudabilder och gjorde mycket annat som vanärade Gud.
Under some circumstances, it would be inappropriate to have fellowship with certain people.
For over two centuries, the Israelites had been slaves in Egypt, worshiping the dead, used idols, and doing much more dishonoring God.

Genom sin ande gav Jehova israeliterna lagen, som bevarade den sanna tillbedjan och skyddade judarna mot att bli orena i andligt, moraliskt och fysiskt avseende.

Abraham and Sarah did not always feel the same way.

Så han bad att få bli döpt där och då.

It can help us to safeguard our heart.

Paulus insåg att en karriär i den judiska ordningen inte var värd något i Jehovas ögon. Den hade ingen framtid.
11: 6, 11 - 13. How did Saul come to develop selfish thinking?
Paul realized that a career in the Jewish system was not worth anything in Jehovah's eyes.

Varför måste vi visa omtänksamhet i församlingen, och hur kan vi göra det?
As you read a Bible passage, take time to pause and ask yourself such questions as these: " What does this tell me about Jehovah?
Why must we display kindness within the congregation, and how can we do so?

" Det är inte med gåvan som det var med överträdelsen ," skrev Paulus.

As you read the Bible, pause and ask yourself, " What does this passage say about Jehovah? '

För att allt det här skall kunna inträffa måste den nuvarande världsordningen med dess stridande makter, religioner och kommersiella system tas bort.

När jag kommer till dem i tjänsten brukar de bjuda in mig.
Consider some potential challenges and how we can deal with them.
When I come to them in the ministry, they usually invite me.

When they obeyed Jehovah, the Israelites were organized and unified.
" The spirit searches into all things, even the deep things of God. "

" Tala tröstande till de nedstämda själarna "
Judges chapters 4 and 5 indicate how Jehovah appreciates it when we willingly rally to carry out his clear direction.
" Speak consolingly to the depressed souls "

Andra lär känna Bibelns sanning lite senare i livet och blir döpta när de har kommit upp i åren. En del har varit över 100 år!
Jesus had given him and the other apostles authority to expel demons.
Others come to know Bible truth later in their life and get baptized at the age of 100 years.

Vi ska nu se närmare på några sådana potentiella prövningar och hur vi kan hantera dem.
When an individual becomes one of Jehovah's Witnesses, he will not practice or consent to such wrong practices, and that makes him no part of the world. - Romans 12: 2; 13: 12 - 14; 1 Corinthians 6: 9 - 11; 1 John 3: 10 - 12.
Let us consider some of these potential trials and see how we can cope with them.

När israeliterna lydde Jehova var de organiserade och enade.
Absolutely!
When the Israelites obeyed Jehovah, they were organized and united.

I kapitel 4 och 5 i Domarboken får vi veta att Jehova tycker om att vi frivilligt ställer upp och följer hans vägledning.
Clearly, at that time Satan was still challenging Jehovah.
In chapter 4 and 5 of Judges, we learn that Jehovah is pleased with our willingness to follow his guidance.

Jesus hade gett honom och de andra apostlarna myndighet att driva ut demoner.
Consider this: After Jesus ' death, there were thousands of Jewish Christians who were zealous for the Law and found it hard to break free from it.
Jesus had given him and the other apostles the authority to expel demons.

När någon blir ett Jehovas vittne, kommer han inte att utföra eller ge sitt samtycke till sådana handlingar, och detta gör att han inte är någon del av världen.
Why should young Christians who are still in school work hard?
When a person becomes one of Jehovah's Witnesses, he will not perform or give his mutual agreement to such acts, and this makes him no part of the world.

Absolut!
Jehovah has preserved spiritual truth and has made knowledge of it available to us in ever - increasing abundance.
Absolutely!

Det är tydligt att Satan fortfarande utmanade Jehova.
Anyone who makes a dedication vow should take it very seriously, just as did the psalmist who spoke of the vows he had made to God: "With what will I repay Jehovah for all the good he has done for me?
Clearly, Satan still challenged Jehovah.

Efter Jesus död fanns det tusentals kristna judar som var " nitiska för lagen " och tyckte att det var svårt att bryta sig loss från den.
All of us face trials that we must endure.
After Jesus ' death, thousands of Jewish Christians "were zealous for the Law " and found it difficult to break free from it.

Varför bör unga kristna som fortfarande går i skolan göra sitt bästa där?
How comforting that is!
Why should young Christians still be doing their best?

Jehova har sett till att sanningen har bevarats och att vi hela tiden kan lära oss mer om den.
It is time for people to awaken from spiritual slumber.
Jehovah has seen to it that the truth has been preserved and that we can constantly learn more about it.

Den som ger ett sådant löfte till honom bör ta det på största allvar, precis som psalmisten som sjöng: " Vad skall jag ge Jehova i gengäld för alla hans välgärningar mot mig? "
How can you be loyal to both Jehovah and your friend or relative?
Those who make such a promise should take it seriously, as did the psalmist who sang: "What shall I give Jehovah in return to all his credit for me? "

Vi får alla uthärda olika prövningar.
What will help us to endure despite calamities?
All of us endure various trials.

Det är en tröst att veta detta!
Another practical way parents can teach children to listen to Jehovah is by having regular family Bible discussions.
How comforting it is to know this!

Det är dags för människor att vakna upp ur sin andliga sömn.
To what did the veil of spiritual darkness lead?
It is time for people to wake up from their spiritual sleep.

Vi kanske är helt säkra på att en medtroende har syndat allvarligt.
According to the Bible record, he spoke more about the Kingdom than about any other subject - referring to it more than 100 times during his ministry.
We may be sure that a fellow believer has sinned seriously.

Vad kommer att hjälpa oss att hålla ut trots olyckor?
What an opportune time to praise Jehovah courageously!
What will help us to endure despite calamities?

Något annat som föräldrar kan göra för att lära sina barn att lyssna på Jehova är att ha ett regelbundet familjestudium.
" If you become discouraged in the day of distress, " says Proverbs 24: 10, "your strength will be meager. "
Another way that parents can do so is by teaching their children to listen to Jehovah is by regularly engaging in regular family worship.

Vad orsakades av slöjan av andligt mörker?
He says: "As for us who belong to the day, let us keep our senses and have on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet the hope of salvation. "
What was caused by the veil of spiritual darkness?

Det var det ämne han oftast kom in på, och som Bibeln visar hänvisade han till det mer än hundra gånger under sin tjänst.
6: 8. Our foremost example of a man who allowed God's spirit to motivate him is Jesus Christ.
That is the subject he usually came into, and he referred to it more than a hundred times during his ministry.

Vilket passande tillfälle att modigt lovprisa Jehova!
Even the birds have to search for food for themselves and their young.
What a fitting opportunity to courageously praise Jehovah!

I Ordspråksboken 24: 10 står det: " Förlorar du modet på nödens dag är din kraft begränsad. "
He can then make an honest evaluation of his circumstances.
Proverbs 24: 10 says: "Have you shown yourself discouraged in the day of distress? Your power will be reduced? "

Han säger: " Vi som hör dagen till, låt oss bevara vår besinning och ha på oss trons och kärlekens bröstpansar och som hjälm hoppet om räddning. "
This means that the majority of the 144,000 chosen ones have already died faithfully.
He says: "We who hear the day of our senses, let us keep our senses and have on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet the hope of salvation. "

Jesus Kristus är det främsta exemplet på en som lät Guds ande motivera honom.
The Bible tells us that Adam's firstborn son, Cain, became the first human murderer when he killed his brother Abel.
Jesus Christ set the supreme example of one who allowed God's spirit to motivate him.

Till och med fåglarna måste leta efter mat till sig själva och sina ungar.
That person may be searching in all sincerity for religious truth.
Even birds must search for food for themselves and their young ones.

Då kan han göra en ärlig bedömning av sin situation.
31: 33 - How is God's law written in hearts?
Then he can make an honest assessment of his situation.

Det innebär att flertalet av de 144 000 redan har dött och kommit till himlen.
What, though, if a lost pilot hesitates to contact the controllers because he is embarrassed that he got lost?
This means that the majority of the 144,000 have already died and have come to heaven.

I Bibeln får vi veta att Adams förstfödde son, Kain, blev den förste mördaren när han dödade sin bror Abel.
Sin mars a person's relationship with God.
The Bible tells us that Adam's firstborn son, Cain, was the first killed when he killed his brother Abel.

De kanske i all uppriktighet söker finna religiös sanning. Ge dem därför en chans att finna den.
The people of Israel also take vengeance upon the Midianites.
They may seek to find religious truth, so they may give them an opportunity to find it.

31: 33 - På vilket sätt är Guds lag skriven " i deras hjärta "?
I carefully control my spending, so I have the freedom and the peace of mind that come from avoiding unnecessary debt. "
31: 33 - In what way is God's Law written "in their heart "?

Men hur är det om han tvekar att kontakta flygledartornet på grund av att han skäms för att han kommit ur kurs?

För att lära sina åhörare Jehovas syn på dem som har gått vilse framställde Jesus två korta liknelser.
When our priorities are in order, possessions and pleasure are not our masters.
To teach his listeners Jehovah's view of those who have strayed, Jesus gave two brief illustrations.

Vad slags lydnad fordrar Jehova, och hur vet vi att sådan lydnad är möjlig?
As a result, special arrangements were made to respect the consciences of the four Hebrews.
What kind of obedience does Jehovah require, and how do we know that such obedience is possible?

Oavsett vart de beger sig och oavsett vilken olycka de drabbas av, kommer de aldrig att vara utom räckhåll för hans hjälpande hand.
Jesus also said we could pray: "Do not bring us into temptation, but rescue us from what is wicked. "
Whether they go and whatever calamity they suffer, they will never be beyond the reach of his helping hand.

His coat of mail weighed about 125 pounds [57 kg], and he carried a massive spear and a large sword.
" [Jesus] taught every day in the temple. "

Sanna kristna ser till att de varken i ord eller i gärning tar ställning för den ena eller den andra gruppen i världens konflikter.
Why might it be challenging to visualize Abraham's travels?
True Christians make sure that they neither in word nor in deed take position for one or other group of members of the world's conflicts.

Ja, om vi har problem med ekonomin, kan vi mer än någonsin behöva praktisk vishet.
But Jephthah's daughter was to be a whole "burnt offering "; she would have to forgo such joys.
Yes, if we have problems with financial security, we may need more than ever practical wisdom.

När vi låter det viktigaste komma främst blir vi inte slavar under ägodelar och sådant som gör livet njutbart.
It can strengthen us to render acceptable service to Jehovah, the Provider of "every good gift and every perfect present. " - Jas. 1: 17.
When we put our priorities first, we will not become slaves of possessions or possessions.

Resultatet blev att man gjorde särskilda anordningar för att respektera de fyra hebréernas samvete.
That promise revealed that the Messiah - the faithful "seed " of Genesis 3: 15 - would come through Abraham's offspring.
As a result, special arrangements were made to respect the consciences of the four Hebrews.

Jesus sade också att vi kunde be: " För oss inte in i frestelse, utan befria oss från det onda. "
Why are you encouraged to know how God's spirit operated upon...
Jesus also said that we could pray: "Do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from bad. "

Hans pansarskjorta vägde närmare 60 kilo, och han bar ett kraftigt spjut och ett stort svärd.
We have seen from his past dealings that no matter what happens, Jehovah will always accomplish his purpose, and sometimes he does it in an unexpected manner.
His garment was nearly 60 miles [30 km], and he carried a strong spear and a large sword.

Varför kan det vara svårt att göra sig en bild av Abrahams resor?
(Compare Romans 8: 26, 27.)
Why might it be difficult to take a picture of Abraham's traveling companions?

Men Jeftas dotter skulle ges " som ett brännoffer ," och därför skulle hon inte få uppleva sådana glädjeämnen.
Yet, as soon as Zion went into labor, she gave birth to her sons. "
However, Jephthah's daughter would be given "as a burnt offering, " so she would not experience such blessings.

Den kan ge oss kraft att tjäna Jehova på ett sätt som han godkänner, han som ger oss " varje god gåva och varje fullkomlig gåva ."
What is symbolized by the splitting of "the mountain of the olive trees "?
It can give us the strength to serve Jehovah in a way that pleases him, who gives us "every good gift and every perfect present. "

Det löftet visade att Messias - den trogna " avkomman " i 1 Moseboken 3: 15 - skulle vara en avkomling till Abraham.
This was not all that was required, however.
This promise indicated that the Messiah - the faithful "seed " at Genesis 3: 15 - would be a descendant of Abraham.

Varför blir du uppmuntrad av att veta hur Guds ande verkade på...
I study about how Jehovah views me.
Why are you encouraged by knowing how God's spirit operated on...

Historien igenom har han alltid funnits där för sina tjänare. Han ser alltid till att det blir som han har tänkt, och ibland gör han det på ett oväntat sätt.
This is especially true of words spoken by someone a woman loves and wants to respect.
Throughout history, he has always been there for his servants; he always sees what he has thought, and sometimes he does so in an unexpected way.

(Jämför Romarna 8: 26, 27.)
Keep in mind too that nicotine - replacement therapies simply provide another form of the drug, along with its health risks.
(Compare Romans 8: 26, 27.)

For Zion was born birth and gave birth to his sons. "

Vad betyder det att Olivberget klyvs " på mitten "?
True worshippers should abound in genuine expressions of godly devotion and acts of brotherly love. - John 13: 35; 2 Peter 3: 11.
What does it mean that the mountain of the olive trees is "on the middle "?

Men de måste göra mer.
And how can we successfully fulfill our role as evangelizers?
However, they must do more.

Jag studerar om hur Jehova ser på mig.
Some may wonder, though, " Why do children need a family study if their parents regularly take them to congregation meetings? '
I study Jehovah's view of me.

Det gäller särskilt om orden kommer från någon hon älskar och vill respektera.
This is also true of Christians today.
Especially is this true of the words that a person loves and wants to respect.

Kom också ihåg att nikotinersättningsprodukter förser kroppen med nikotin i en annan form, så hälsorisken är inte över.
Those who do not keep clear of false worship can be "tossed about as by waves and carried hither and thither by every wind of teaching by means of the trickery of men, by means of cunning in contriving error. " - Ephesians 4: 13, 14.
Recall, too, that nicotine refer to the body with nicotine in another form, so health danger is not over.

Därför kan det sägas att synden fick en anledning genom lagen.
What were the prospects of those in the new covenant?
Hence, sin was given a reason through the Law.

Men somliga kanske undrar: Varför behöver barnen ett familjestudium om föräldrarna regelbundet tar dem med till församlingens möten?
Explain.
However, some may wonder, " Why do parents need a family study if their parents regularly feed them with congregation meetings? '

Detta gäller också de sanna kristna i våra dagar.
Let Us Watch Our Associations
That also applies to true Christians today.

De som inte håller sig borta från falsk tillbedjan kan komma att " kastas av och an liksom av vågor och föras hit och dit av varje lärdomsvind genom människors knep, genom slughet i att finna medel till förvillelse ."
Let us see, then, how we can maintain our good conduct and thus continue to uphold the fine reputation of Jehovah and his Witnesses and how we benefit ourselves in so doing.
Those who do not stay away from false worship may come to "be cast off as by waves and be carried hither and thither by every wind of teaching by means of the tricks of men, by means of cunning in finding cunning schemes. "

Vilken framtidsutsikt hade de?
Really, everyone owes Jehovah a debt of gratitude.
What prospect did they have?
