He asked "Jesus came through the line of Abraham, but did that bloodline come through Joseph, or Mary?"
- [Jesus Genealogy](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1200001647) has been recorded in the bible in a few places. Starting in Genesis/Ruth, then to 1 Chronicles 1-3, and then in the first chapters of the Gospel accounts.
- Genealogy was very important to the Jews. Have several public, and private records
- The scribes and Pharisees as well as the Sadducees were bitter enemies of Christianity, and they would have used any possible argument to discredit Jesus, but it is noteworthy that they never challenged these genealogies.
- If you compare Matthews account, and Lukes account, you'll notice they differ.
- Matt 1 / Luke 3
- The difference in nearly all the names in Lukes genealogy of Jesus as compared with Matthews is quickly resolved in the fact that Luke traced the line through Davids son Nathan, instead of Solomon as did Matthew. Luke evidently follows the ancestry of Mary, thus showing Jesus *natural* descent from David, while Matthew shows Jesus *legal* right to the throne of David by descent from *Solomon* through Joseph, who was *legally* Jesus father. Both Matthew and Luke signify that Joseph was not Jesus actual father but only his adoptive father, giving him legal right.
- The reason Mary was not explicitly mentioned in Luke's account, is simply because the Jewish belief at that time, was “The descendant of the mother is not called (her) descendant”
- In summary:
- (1) that Jesus was actually the Son of God and the *natural* heir to the Kingdom by miraculous birth through the virgin girl Mary, of Davids line
- (2) that Jesus was also the *legal* heir in the male line of descent from David and Solomon through his adoptive father Joseph

Shared various scripture above,
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 - Love is patient and kind, etc.
- Ecclesiastes 4:6 -Better is a handful of rest than two handfuls of hard work and chasing after the wind
- A middleground is needed. Keeping in mind with the principles of the two scriptures above, we should help, we should do what we can, but we should not sacrifice our own well being, or family's well being to do so. Especially if its "chasing after the wind."
- 1 Tim 5:4 - But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn first to practice godly devotion in their own household and to repay their parents and grandparents what **is due them**, for this is acceptable in Gods sight.
- John 19:25-27 - By the torture stake of Jesus, however, there were standing his mother and his mothers sister; Mary the wife of Cloʹpas and Mary Magʹda·lene. So when Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother: “Woman, see! Your son!” Next he said to the disciple: “See! Your mother!” And from that hour on, the disciple took her into his own home.
- Ephesians 4:31, 32 - Put away from yourselves every kind of malicious bitterness, anger, wrath, screaming, and abusive speech, as well as everything injurious[.](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dx/r1/lp-e/1001070153/29396)But become kind to one another, tenderly compassionate, freely forgiving one another just as God also by Christ freely forgave you.
Next time focus on the fact that even Jehovah himself had a limit, and does not tolerate all behavior, and even cut the Israelites off after they killed his son. Matt 23:37,38 - God abandoned Israel due to their rejection of his laws
# February 8, 2025
Found Marie, she was super nice, talked about what her husband was dealing with. Gave her my number to give to Bryan, said I'd stop by next week sometime.
# January 31, 2025
Total topic switch, is having trouble with his manipulative and demanding mother. Very concerned on wanting to help and provide for her (which he has gone above and beyond), but also doesn't want to keep fueling the problem, with her lack of appreciation, and not stopping with requests. Shared
- Romans 12: 17-21
- f possible, as far as it depends on you, be peaceable with all men.
- 1 Tim 5:4
- But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn first to practice godly devotion in their own household[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070158/97) and to repay their parents and grandparents what is due them,[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070158/98) for this is acceptable in Gods sight.[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070158/99)
- James 1:5
- So if any one of you is lacking in wisdom, let him keep asking God,[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070163/4) for he gives generously to all and without reproaching,[*](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/fn/r1/lp-e/1001070163/0)[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070163/5) and it will be given him.[+](https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070163/6)
Spent probably 45 mins there. Need to do some additional research, and see if we can find something more. I'm thinking maybe look at the example of Jesus and how he treated his mother
# December 26, 2024
Finally found him home, and talked for a while. Spent the first 20ish mins talking about how to make chicken stock, talking about various travels, how good it is to be able to travel. Then taled about Jesus (Christmas), read Acts 4:12, talking about how there is no way through into salvation except through Jesus. Then talked about Jesus being ruler of gods kingdom, and talked about what that is. Asked what he thought it was, and he ended up saying we just don't really know. Read Daniel 2:44, then read Revelation 21:3,4, and talked about what the effects of that kingdom are, and how its something we get to look forward to on earth. Next time maybe show the video of the kingdom, but he'll be gone for at least the next month, so check back early February.
# November 30, 2024
Found home, said he just got back into town the night before. Talked very briefly about Okinawa, he says he will be there Thursday.
# September 16, 2024

# January 18, 2025
Asked about study, but he said he wasn't really interested in it, but asked if he still wanted me to stop by and share things, and he said yes absolutely. Today talked about the Lord's prayer, into God's kingdom. Read Matt 6:9,10, then went into Dan 2:44, then into Rev 21:3,4. Was paying attention and answering questions, so I left the question "When will we see the effects of this kingdom on earth?".
Return and share 1 Tim 3:1-5, and find more Scriptures on the last days.
# January 11, 2025
Very cold, but was home. Introduced brochure, and showed introduction to Bible study video. He wasn't fully committed, but he said he'd think about it and let me know. I suggested I stop by next week, in hopefully warmer weather, and we can go over the first few paragraphs and see what he thinks. He agreed, so we'll see then.
# December 27, 2024

Very nice older man, used to be a do not call. Mentioned sign in the yard, talked about model prayer, focused on kingdom, then read Dan 2:44, talked about the kingdom again, the read Revelation 21:3,4 to show promises. Left Kingdom Tract. His sons are pastors, very big Bible reader, has scriptures on his door. Probably a veteran, next time focus on the promises of peace that the Bible gives.
Had scriptures on door:
- James 4:10 - Humble yourselves in the eyes of Jehovah, and he will exalt you.
- 2 Chronicles 7:10 - Then on the 23rd day of the seventh month, he sent the people away to their homes rejoicing and feeling glad of heart over the goodness that Jehovah had shown to David and Solʹo·mon and Israel his people.
- Matt 16-24 - Jesus teaching
# April 28, 2025
Stopped and shared Isaiah 65:21-23, focusing on the peace God promises humans for their future. Also read Rev 21:3,4 for further emphasis. Then turned to 2 Tim 3:1-5, and he said that's the world we're living in today, and we talked about the fact that we're living in the last days. Bruce suggested maybe covertly starting a study with him. Need to figure out how to do that.
# May 9, 2025

Read Jeremiah 29:11,12. Talked about the hope and future from God, then read Psalms 37:28 to show what that future is. He mentioned Matt 24, about the signs of the times of the end, so we talked about that, and how close we are to the end.
# June 6, 2025
Talked about Gods name, and he knew it was Jehovah. Read Psalms 83:18, and then talked about how Jesus magnified Jehovahs name. Then discussed how important it was to use his name in prayer. He agreed it was important to know and use God's name
