you can help other Christians to endure under trial by reminding them of articles from the WT< like:
*** w08 8/15 p. 3 Jehovah Will Not Leave His Loyal Ones ***
based on PS. 37:28:
“[Jehovah] will not leave his loyal ones. To time indefinite they will certainly be guarded.”—.
*** w07 6/15 p. 26 Jehovah Values Your Obedience ***
based on PROVERBS 27:11:
“Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice.”—
*** w99 11/15 p. 28 What Can Be Done About Discouragement? ***
*** w97 4/15 p. 4 “The God of Peace” Cares for the Afflicted ***
*** w96 11/1 p. 3 Comfort for the Oppressed ***
*** w95 4/1 p. 10 You Are Precious in God’s Eyes! ***
based on JEREMIAH 31:3
“With a love to time indefinite I have loved you. That is why I have drawn you with loving-kindness.”—
and
*** w93 9/15 p. 9 Endurance—Vital for Christians ***
and you can also remind them of situations of people in the Bible that are similar to theirs, like that of the Apostle Paul, who had a "thorn in his flesh" to deal with; or Hoph′ni and Phinehas, who were good-for-nothing priests in Jehovah's temple; but he eventually DID fix the problem -- he always does!
and, of course pray for them , that Jehovah will help them to hold onto him.
they also could write to the branch, to get the address for the district overseer [if the cicuit overseer is part of the problem, too] and maybe they could get some support from him [worth a try, maybe]
Hi, this is my blog to share encouraging thoughts - mostly from the Holy Bible and publications of the Watchtower Society. It started as a challenge to do one thing (write something encouraging was my choice) for one hundred days. I like doing it, so i decided not to stop at 100! Have a great and uplifting day, and may Jehovah bless you. : )
