A report from a country where Jehovah’s people have been persecuted noted: “Those with good spiritual habits and a deep appreciation of the truth have no problem in holding firm when tests arrive, but those who in ‘ favorable season ’ miss meetings, are irregular in field service and compromise on small issues often fall when under a ‘ fiery ’ test. ” ​ — 2 Timothy 4: 2.
परंतु जे लोक ‘ सुवेळी ’ सभा चुकवतात, क्षेत्र सेवेत अनियमित असतात आणि लहानसहान गोष्टींतही हातमिळवणी करतात ते, कठीणातल्या ‘ कठीण ’ परीक्षेत सहज बळी पडतात. ” — २ तीमथ्य ४: २.
