There's supposed to be a pink moon tonight.

The Pink Moon will be visible tonight, April 12, 2025. It will reach its peak illumination at 8:22 p.m. Eastern Time. While it's called the "Pink Moon," it won't actually appear pink. The name comes from the early spring blooms of pink flowers, like creeping phlox. This moon is also a "micromoon" as it will be at its farthest point from Earth in its orbit. The picture showed like it looks pink, so I think it will. Haha I'll make it Pink in my imagination haha

It wasn't pink in sweden. Today was the memorial of Jesus Christ's sacrifice for us.
@MartinTheFirst In 1963, theologian Anthony A. Hoekema wrote, "Their New World Translation of the Bible is by no means an objective rendering of the sacred text into modern English, but is a biased translation in which many of the peculiar teachings of the Watchtower Society are smuggled into the text of the Bible itself."

Like I've told you before KJV removed the name of God YHWH, Yahweh, or Jehovah (or the hebrew letters). What greater sin can you do when it comes to removing things, than to remove God's very own name from his scriptures?

What greater sin, you say? Why did your Jehovah witness society change/replace Jehovah with "Lord"? It's still changing what God's word said.

Hundreds of years before Jesus came to earth, the Jews would not pronounce God's personal name. They were concerned that they might violate God's command to not take His name in vain. Instead of saying YHWH or Jehovah or Yahweh, that's the only reason they used the word Adonai, back then, which means Lord.

If you want to get technical, the Jehovah's Witnesses Bible been rewritten quite a few times which Revelation says not to do:

New World Translation
Revision 1970, 1971, 1981, 1984, 2013
Copies printed More than 240 million
Religious affiliation Jehovah's Witnesses

Jehovah's witnesses try to make the translation more accurate and complete in accordance with what was actually written, not changing or removing anything.

A total of 17 single verses are missing from the bible used by Jehovah's Witnesses. · Most bibles do not have gaps at the aforementioned verses.

What are the 16 omitted verses in the new world translation?

If you want to look for yourself, here are those 16 “missing” verses.
Mathew 23:14, Matthew 17:21, Matthew 18:11.
Mark 7:16, Mark 9:44, Mark 9:46, Mark 11:26, Mark 15:28.
Luke 17:36.
John 5:4.
Acts 8:37, Acts 15:34, Acts 24:7, Acts 28:29.
Romans 16:24.
@MartinTheFirst I think one of the huge differences in what Jehovah's Witnesses believe, is that the Holy Spirit is not a person, but God's active force or power. They see it as a tool that God uses to accomplish his will, not a separate entity in the Godhead.

God's Word says the Holy Spirit is a person. The Bible presents the Holy Spirit as a person through actions, attributes, and interactions that are characteristic of a person, not an impersonal force. While not explicitly stating "The Holy Spirit is a person," the Bible demonstrates this through various passages.

The Holy Spirit is confirmed in Scripture as having a mind, will, emotions, and intelligence. For example, the Holy Spirit intercedes for believers (Romans 8:26-27), distributes gifts (1 Corinthians 12:11), and can be grieved (Ephesians 4:30).

The Holy Spirit interacts with God the Father and the Son, and with believers, demonstrating a personal relationship. The Holy Spirit is described as the Comforter (John 14:26), Advocate (John 14:26), and Teacher (John 14:26).

The Bible confirms the Holy Spirit as part of the Trinity, alongside God the Father and God the Son. This emphasizes the distinct but unified nature of God as three co-equal persons.

There are many verses that speak of the trinity as being the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit unified. One does not do anything without the others consent. They all work together and that is shown in Genesis when God said let us make man in our own image.

@MartinTheFirst I believe the Holy Spirit must be accepted as a person, not just a force. God's Word says the Holy Spirit is a person.

It says that God will send the Comforter (the Holy Spirit) and he will teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. This passage, found in John 14:26, highlights the role of the Holy Spirit as a teacher and a reminder of Jesus' teachings.
