    Then he said every wednesday the governing body meets and personally decides where every CO and DO will go in the world.

    Would you mind checking your notes on the above as such a scenario would be impossible. How could the gb decide such things for all the countries of the world. That is done by the branch, the DO's and the CO's. There must have been something else, perhaps their appointment. That is rubber-stamped by the GB.

    yesidid - It wasn't in my notes. I just heard the talk 3 hours ago. He specifically said that since the governing body cannot come be our traveling overseer that every wednesday they get together and decide where each CO and DO will go in the world. They do this because they care about us. The governing body delegated other tasks to the branch committee but they take care of this one. Otherwise, this CO is a dumbass and doesnt know what he is talking about.

    How can this CO get ahead of wts? I don't remember this new light being anywhere in a wt so is he the only CO telling this or has anyone else heard this from any other CO visit?

    It's very odd for a CO to run ahead of wts. If this is truly a noo lite then they are finally taking action to minimize 1914 but I would wait for something written in their rags before getting too excited over the noo lite.

    Other than my skepticism, this would mean that according to wts Jesus took power in 1878, 1914 and in the future :)

    sheep/goat idea is found in Sep 2009 wt, I think page 29.

    We have new understanding on who these brothers that were suppose to give something to eat. Any guesses on who these brothers we are suppose to clothe or give something to eat to. Well, there are seven specific brothers that we are suppose to listen to and obey everything they say. None other than the GOVERNING BODY. Unless you obey the governing body you will lose your life at armageddon.

    This is blatant idolatry! To listen to and obey everything they say is the most blatant form of idolatry there is. This is a direct contradiction of the scripture they themselves harp on all the time at 1Corinthians 6:9 and 10. Remember, idolaters are not supposed to enter God's Kingdom? Yet, the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger expects to be worshiped in direct violation of that scripture that they themselves harp on.

    And they complain when someone gets an album on vacation because "millions of fans worship the band". They want people to throw away the record, even though they got it solely as a souvenir of the vacation, just because others are worshiping the group. Then they want people to absolutely worship the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger. At least no musicians demand such absolute obedience to their fans.

    This seems rather unusual that they are rolling this out via CO vists, but stranger things could happen. I'd like to see this in print too, or collaborated by other posters.

    Matt 25:31 Jesus said when the son of man, kingly throne 1914. The CO said we have NEW UNDERSTANDING or new light. Previously we had thought the throne talked about in matt 25:31, Jesus had already took that throne in 1914. The new idea is that he hasn't taken that throne yet. This is kind of odd to me because how many thrones could Jesus have? He said that Jesus has two thrones one he took in 1914 and one he will take in the future. I presume he will take his second throne sometime around armageddon.

    This is no new light. If the CO said that "previously we had thought the throne talked about in matt 25:31, Jesus had already took that throne in 1914", then he didn't read the Oct 15 1995 Watchtower (page 22 par. 25):

    This means, then, that Jesus’ ‘sitting down on his glorious throne’ for judgment, mentioned at Matthew 25:31, applies to the future point when this powerful King will sit down to pronounce and execute judgment on the nations.
