My JW friend there was a major change in the mid-90s about the 1914 generation teaching. He denied the strapline on Awake magazine suddenly changed.
How can I fing out precisely when the change occurred, and even better, get my hands on Awake magazines before and after?
By the way, when and what was the sheep & goats changed teaching?
Most important, this magazine builds confidence in the Creator's promise of a peaceful and secure new world before the generation that saw the events of 1914 passes away.

I have a silly question: Have all the anointed from 1914 passed away?

Top Hat, the WTBTS tracks the number of memorial partakers (anointed) every year. It's been steady at about 8,500 for quite a while.
jgnat,
Do you mean there 8,500 still living since before 1914 as they would have had to see the beginning of pains of distress. That is pretty damn old!
