Ok Elsewhere,
I actually did do what you suggested even entering a couple of extra carriage returns, unfortunately it din't work this time.
Oh well maybe Simon can fix it?
Thanks

"Until he arrives" is answered this way: "Individual anointed Christians would partake of the Memorial emblems until their death. Thus, before Jehovah God and the world, they would repeatedly proclaim their faith in God'd provision of Jesus' ransom sacrafice. "Until he arrives, said Paul, evidently meaning that these observances would continue until Jesus' arrival to recieve his annointed followers into heaven by a ressurection during his "presence".

To be honest I am not sure how they handle that scripture... but if this is how they do, then it is certainly open to interpretation - as is anything that cannot be demonstrated with empirical evidence.
Bottom line, they can "flash forth" new light and all the little JWs will follow suit.
If they can get new members to change their minds on the trinity, then they certainly can get JWs to change their minds on this.
Unless there is hard physical evidence that can clearly be seen by even the dumbest JWs that shows they are wrong, they can say what ever they want... they are God's Channel (TM) after all.

Well, unfortunately for them, will be people like me sitting there partaking just to mess up their numbers.
LOL, well, maybe I'm just "emotional."

Lisa, are you sure that you are not on any "medication"?

As long as a nutball religion exists like the WT, nutball people will continue to come in and take the "emblems." The number of "anointed" dubs will never go down, no matter what Watchtower leaders say. Nutballs will be nutballs and if nutballs can't carry microphones around in a Kingdumb Hall, nutballs will become "anointed" and hope somebody cares. Nobody cares. As a result, Watchtower leaders will continue to look like the fools they are for their ridiculous two-class doctrine.

Minimus, Amazing posted a 1952 WT. article that said you can't stop anyone from partaking of the emblems or question them as to their claim of being anointed and going to heaven.
This is the first article that is going against what they wrote in 1952. Are you familiar with that posted article and WT. Blueblades

old lite....For the last few decades, the Society has been strongly suggesting that unless you're real old and real faithful, you're just an imposter. They won't stop you from partaking, though.

And yet they tell you to fill your library with these volumes of old light,1950 to present. Blueblades

Blueblades, this latest Watchtower still quotes Studies in the Scriptures, Series VI, The New Creation, page 473!...page 19, par.8!!! They use whatever suits them. And they feel no guilt or embarrassment.
