At first glance I thought this was gonna be a Larsinger58 type of post, but after reading it yes, I agree in principle with the equivocation you claim.
I don't tend to read into claims of decoding secret messages, but I certainly agree that these references to Jehovah have at best a dual meaning and at worst were intentional to the point of the GB making the exact point your claiming
lol.. Have you payed attention to some of the article's bolded text entries?
That even looks like a confession from the governing body!!
LINKING!
It is a good thing people don't actually study the Watchtower like they are supposed to.
LINKING!
It is a good thing the brothers and sisters don't pay close attention in the meetings.

It is a good thing so many long-time JW's lead double lives to save what's left of their sanity.

It is unfortunate how repetition of an idea can seep in.

A lie repeated often enough can appear to be truth.

The Governing Body may actually BECOME Jehovah in the long run....simply by repetition and LINKING.

May? Have!
You hit that nail bang on the head Terry
I think the Watch Tower leaders have come to a crisis and have seen the solution.
They cannot win by information, facts, scholarship or resort to excuses.
The Apostate has outflanked them at every turn.
All the past errors are in print! Copy and Paste and BANG! You're dead in the water.
There are the fingerprints of disaster and a smoking gun in the hand of. . . the Governing Body.
Get the cuffs and call a lawyer!
The Watch Tower leaders have called all the lawyers and they've circled the wagons.
You are either FOR them or you are AGAINST them.
It is all about TRUST.

You get excited how lucky you are that there is a magic cabal of kings and priests with woo-woo powers shoveling holy shit onto your plate!
They are: MOTHER.
They are: Anointed. Anointed means the same as CHRIST.
They are: Jehovah's mouthpiece.
They are: the channel of communication to heaven.
The ark of salvation is steered by the GB and you better trust them. . . or else.
"The Governing Body may actually BECOME Jehovah in the long run....simply by repetition and LINKING."
(Manifestly)
The question is of time scale. They would need some core of n*20yr generations to die off (and STFU about how things used to be) before they can roll out new convergences of some scripture they found or construed and their own earthly divinity, that they have just received new light upon, from themselves.
Ooooooo: Recommend "By His Bootstraps", a short story by Robert Heinlein.
Yeah well, you don't need a decoder ring to figure that one out.
Its all about obedience to the GB always has been, thats all it is,
They call the shots, define your reality and make it up as they go along.
I noticed the last few years tho that they really ramped up the obedience to gb= Jehovah. It started seeming very cult like to me, and started the ball rolling on looking at how groups did the old bait and switch too.
Julia you are right especially when they went to The WT STUDY EDITION basically saying this is for our cult and the other WT is for the outsiders! Can you say CULT???
