F&DS has just become GB - when is this new light disseminated to R&F?

NeverKnew

I think I get that this meeting on October 6 was by invitation only.

If I asked a JW to research who the F&DS was, I'm assuming that they'd tell me it is the annointed and maybe even provide me with WT literature from that CD explaining this.

...or would they already know about the change?

I guess what I'm asking is, if I could get them to research the topic, the information would be fresh in their minds so that when they get the new info, they may be more apt to hear.

When or how will this be announced?

"Cool" JWs, who were invited to the meeting, are already disseminating this info by e-mail / facebook to their "not-so-cool" friends who didn't go.

Those e-mails will in turn be spread far and wide among elctronically-connected JWs.

It will appear in print in a series of WT articles, probably in the winter or spring.

Wasn't there a thread a few months ago about someone in Brazil saying that the Watchtower was going to announce soon some New Light on some "Academic" topic?

I take "academic" as meaning "doctrinal."

Could this be what they were referring to?

NEVERKNEW- This subject WAS already disseminated to JW's in a WT study article I started a thread on in the spring of 2009 , but JW's back then were too dense to pick up on what the GB was doing. Here's the thread : http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/174833/1/6-15-WT-GB-More-Powerful-than-Worldwide-Anointed-Dont-Judge-Partaking . The GB has been prepping JW's to see that THEY oNLY are the alleged " faithful slave for several years now

How many are invited?

I have to agree with Flipper that this new change has been in the works for a while. I couldn't help notice in yesterday wathctowe study that they now have given themselves the title :the kingdom of God.

Well, half of jdubs in the hall I attend all have connections to bethel and got invited to the annual meeting hook up at the canadian branch. It be interesting is any one of them picked up on the "new light"

Thanks, Flipper. I'm disappointed that this won't jar anybody... *sigh*

Seems like the WT has pre-planned my every move.

The 2009 article hints at the current "new light", but not the entire change. FDS = Governing Body is how it has been unofficially understood for years anyway. The bit about the FDS not existing prior to 1919 is pretty big. It cuts out all of the apostles and Charles Russell, suggesting that they were not tasked with delivering food at the proper time.

Very interesting, they (gov.body) elevate themselves to the status of a god and millions worship them. My clarity is so much better since I have faded away, im going to check out the link that flipper put up, thanks for the link :)

Good point donut hole. They are in essence saying that the bible writers in the 1st century were not part of the fds.
