Pure Words and Testimonies full of Breath of the Most High

“1 ¶ and now, Israel, listen to the statutes and to the judgments which I am teaching you to do, so that you may live and go in, and possess the land which Jehovah the god of your fathers is giving to you. 2 you shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, to keep the commandments of Jehovah your god which I command you.” (Deuteronomy 4:1-2 LIT) “and it shall be with him, and he shall read in it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear Jehovah your god, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them;” (Deuteronomy 17:19 LIT) “I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.” (Psalms 119:11 LIT) “Lamed. your word is settled in heaven forever, O Jehovah.” (Psalms 119:89 LIT) “Nun. your word [is] a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” (Psalms 119:105 LIT) “119 [as] dross you have made all the wicked of the earth to cease; so I love your testimonies. 120 my flesh has shivered because of your fear; and I have feared your judgments. 121 ¶ Ayin. I have done the just and right [thing]; do not leave me to my oppressors. 122 be surety for your servant for good; let not the proud oppress me. 123 ¶ my eyes fail for your salvation, and for the word of your righteousness. 124 ¶ deal with your servant by your mercy; and teach me your statutes. 125 I [am] your servant; make me consider and I will know your testimonies. 126 ¶ [it is] time for Jehovah to work; they have broken your law. 127 ¶ so I have loved your commands, more than gold, even fine gold. 128 so I count wholly right all the precepts; I have hated every false way. 129 ¶ Pe. your testimonies [are] wonderful; so my soul keeps them. 130 ¶ the entering of your word gives light, instructing the simple ones.” (Psalms 119:119-130 LIT) “so shall my word be, which goes out of my mouth; it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in what I sent it to do!” (Isaiah 55:11 LIT) “16 every Scripture [is] god-breathed and profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 so that the man of god may be perfected, fully furnished for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17 LIT) “6 the words of Jehovah [are] pure words, like silver refined in an earthen furnace, purified seven times. 7 you shall keep them, O Jehovah; you shall preserve them from this generation forever.” (Psalms 12:6-7 LIT) “5 every word of god [is] tested, he [is] a shield to those who seek refuge in him. 6 do not add to his words, that he not reprove you, and you be found a liar.” (Proverbs 30:5-6 LIT) “18 truly I say to you, until the heaven and the earth pass away, in no way shall one iota or one tittle pass away from the law until all comes to pass. 19 therefore, whoever relaxes one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven. but whoever does and teaches [them], this one shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:18-19 LIT) “the heaven and the earth will pass away, but my words will not at all pass away.” (Mark 13:31 LIT) “but it is easier [for] the heaven and the earth to pass away than one tittle of the law to fail.” (Luke 16:17 LIT) “for whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.” (Romans 15:4 LIT) “but [the] word of [the] lord remains forever." and this is the word announced as gospel to you. [Isa. 40:6 -8]” (1 Peter 1:25 LIT) “18 for I testify together with everyone hearing the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to these things, god will add upon him the plagues having been written in this book. 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, god will take away his part from the book of life, and out of the holy city, and of the things having been written in this book.” (Revelation 22:18-19 LIT)

Deaf helped in their ability to progress in this community

The Philippine Daily Inquirer on page A10 brought the story entitled: "Hearing impaired get heard in free sign language lessons." You can also see the photo of a deaf sister conducting a Bible study using our publication with a caption written by an Inquirer editor: "Rosemarie Peralta used to be unschooled as a result of being hearing impaired until she discovered a universe of knowledge though sign language taught to her for free by a group of volunteers."

The hearing person with whom the video interpreter is also communicating can not be seen. The videophone camera rests above his computer monitor. Note as well the additional videophones on his desk.

Deaf people, whose families could not afford to send them to special education classes, have been learning sign language for free and beyond classroom walls.
Sign language volunteers of the Jehovah’s Witnesses have been bringing classes right at the doorsteps of the hearing impaired since 1994, preferring to educate them in the comforts of their homes.
Some sign language teachers are themselves deaf. All of them have been spending their own time and money to reach out to the deaf community.
More than 2,000 volunteers, from the mountain town of Buguias in Benguet to the coastal villages of Mindanao, go from house to house to seek out the hearing impaired.

The famine of the word

"The days are coming," declares the Sovereign LORD,
"when I will send a famine through the land—
not a famine of food or a thirst for water,
but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD.

12 Men will stagger from sea to sea
and wander from north to east,
searching for the word of the LORD,
but they will not find it.


The famine of the word is occuring during this time. Have you ever tried to teach someone that clearly is not understanding it?

Now how do people stagger from sea to sea and north to east during these times to search for the word of the Lord?
