This is about the 10th time I have randomly run across this Psalm in the last 2 days. How nice. Amen.

Re: Favorite Bible Quotes
And to him there were given rulership and dignity and kingdom, that the peoples, national groups and languages should all serve even him. His rulership is an indefinitely lasting rulership that will not pass away, and his kingdom one that will not be brought to ruin.DANIEL 7;14

Re: Favorite Bible Quotes
But he said to them: “Also to other cities I must declare the good news of the kingdom of God, because for this I was sent forth.” LUKE 4;43 Jesus Christ spoke about the Kingdom of God, which will bring an end to wickedness and make the earth a paradise.

Re: Favorite Bible Quotes
Hope no-one minds me posting, but this was always my favourite from reading the bible many years ago:
Mark 12:29-31
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord. And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment.
And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

For the Scripture says to Phar′aoh: “For this very cause I have let you remain, that in connection with you I may show my power, and that my name may be declared in all the earth. ROMANS 9;17

Re: Favorite Bible Quotes
The law of Jehovah is perfect, bringing back the soul.
The reminder of Jehovah is trustworthy, making the inexperienced one wise.
The orders from Jehovah are upright, causing the heart to rejoice;
The commandment of Jehovah is clean, making the eyes shine. PSALM 19;7-8

Favorite Bible Quotes
And it must occur in the final part of the days [that] the mountain of the house of Jehovah will become firmly established above the top of the mountains, and it will certainly be lifted up above the hills; and to it peoples must stream. 2 And many nations will certainly go and say: “Come, YOU people, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will instruct us about his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion law will go forth, and the word of Jehovah out of Jerusalem. 3 And he will certainly render judgment among many peoples, and set matters straight respecting mighty nations far away. And they will have to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. They will not lift up sword, nation against nation, neither will they learn war anymore. 4 And they will actually sit, each one under his vine and under his fig tree, and there will be no one making [them] tremble; for the very mouth of Jehovah of armies has spoken [it].MICAH 4 ;1-4
The thing that Isaiah the son of A′moz visioned concerning Judah and Jerusalem: 2 And it must occur in the final part of the days [that] the mountain of the house of Jehovah will become firmly established above the top of the mountains, and it will certainly be lifted up above the hills; and to it all the nations must stream. 3 And many peoples will certainly go and say: “Come, YOU people, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will instruct us about his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion law will go forth, and the word of Jehovah out of Jerusalem. 4 And he will certainly render judgment among the nations and set matters straight respecting many peoples. And they will have to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore. Isaiah 2;1-4
WE are now in the last days ,and many are being instructed in the ways of the most high Jehovah
and they are not learning war anymore . and he is setting things straight
(Psalm 25:8) Good and upright is Jehovah. That is why he instructs sinners in the way.
(Isaiah 54:13) And all your sons will be persons taught by Jehovah, and the peace of your sons will be abundant......................... its good to belong to a group that is taught by the most high because it leads to peace.
(John 7:16) Jesus, in turn, answered them and said: “What I teach is not mine, but belongs to him that sent me.
(Jeremiah 33:6) ‘Here I am bringing up for her a recuperation and health; and I will heal them and reveal to them an abundance of peace and truth.
(Romans 5:1) Therefore, now that we have been declared righteous as a result of faith, let us enjoy peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
its all happening in these the last days for those who are willing to be taught by the most high Jehovah.
(Luke 9:35) And a voice came out of the cloud, saying: “This is my Son, the one that has been chosen. Listen to him.”
Those who are faithful to Jesus and listen to him are taking in good spiritual food at the right time from the one that is chosen by the most high. and it is Jesus matthew 24;45-47 yes Jesus is the PRINCE OF PEACE and his followers are being taught PEACE .would you not agree that it is good to know that PEACE is being taught to ones from all nations right now in this the last days ? REVELATION 7;9-10 but the question is do we want the way to peace or do we pass by that mountain of the most high. i think it has a lot to do with our ATTITUDE many say that they want peace but only on their terms not on Gods terms .
(Daniel 12:9) And he went on to say: “Go, Daniel, because the words are made secret and sealed up until the time of [the] end.

Re: mountain firmly established
Just as it requires effort to climb a mountain, so, too, it requires effort to learn of and live according to God’s righteous standards.
A People Taught Jehovah’s Way
Isaiah tells us more about those who embrace pure worship today. He says: “Many peoples will certainly go and say: ‘Come, you people, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will instruct us about his ways, and we will walk in his paths.’ For out of Zion law will go forth, and the word of Jehovah out of Jerusalem.”—Isaiah 2:3. its all happening in this time of the end .
Jehovah has done a marvelous thing in this “the final part of the days.” He has gathered from all nations people who want to serve him. He has taught them to walk in his ways, ways of peace. These are the ones who will survive the coming “great tribulation” and pass into a peaceful new world in which war will be abolished forever.—Revelation 7:14.

Re: Favorite Bible Quotes
2 Corinthians 6: 2.
For he says: “In an acceptable time I heard you, and in a day of salvation I helped you.” Look! Now is the especially acceptable time. Look! Now is the day of salvation.
in this time of the end those who are instructed in Jehovahs ways are crying our joyfully,even under difficult conditions they enjoy bounteous spiritual provisions.
(2 Timothy 2:19) For all that, the solid foundation of God stays standing, having this seal: “Jehovah knows those who belong to him,” and: “Let everyone naming the name of Jehovah renounce unrighteousness.
(Zephaniah 3:9) For then I shall give to peoples the change to a pure language, in order for them all to call upon the name of Jehovah, in order to serve him shoulder to shoulder.’...................
its all happening in this time of the end

As opposed to all those other "times of the end", when it didn't happen?

bible prophecy always comes true and its always right on time , and the START of the last days was 1914 ,yes indeed it is all happening and its now well along in this time of the end. NOW is the time to put our trust in the only way to salvation . the heavenly kingdom goverment is now well established and soon it will go into action ....Daniel 2;44... so NOW is the time to seek Jehovah before the great day of Jehovah .
BEFORE [the] statute gives birth to [anything], [ BEFORE the] day has passed by just like chaff, BEFORE there comes upon you people the burning anger of Jehovah, BEFORE there comes upon you the day of Jehovah’s anger, seek Jehovah, all you meek ones of the earth, who have practiced His own judicial decision. Seek righteousness, seek meekness. Probably you may be concealed in the day of Jehovah’s anger. ZEPHENIAH 2;2-3................
it is up to us , that is why it says PROBABLY we our selves have to make the choice BEFORE Jehovah steps in to the affairs of humans .
make no mistake about it bible prophecy ALWAYS comes true. but in the mean time Jehovah ALWAYS makes the way out for us . the question is , Do we have a good attitude or a negative attitude towards Gods way of salvation?

The problem Mee, is when humans put their signature to God's timeline. God is a respector of no person, no religion, no faith, and no chosen few. That's why "end timers" don't always come out smelling so sweet. JWs have a particular passion for pegging dates, and then coming up short (like the boy that crys "wolf"). The end of times we are specifically told, not to concern ourselves with, for a reason...1914, for example, doesn't matter, since it happened in the past. Tomorrow doesn't matter, since it hasn't occured yet. What matters is today, right now, this moment.
Instead of saying "Come to God because the end is near", we should be saying "Come to God, because He Loves you and wants to take away your pain, and fill you with joy and peace of mind".
