    You are being "shy and coy" about JW terminology. You know how it works.

    We have so many combinations, interpretations, permutations and "explanations" of the words that it would be sufficient content for a book.

    Start with the word "slave." We JW's have the slave at the top of the food chain. Explain that to others.

    Then we write chapter 2.

    The Truth. "TheTruth" in itself is an oxymoron. Once you learn the truth about the truth. It is all lies and made up.

    I was falling out of the truth when I was past the bloom of youth but happifying...married only in the Lord and was fed food in the proper season and anxiously awaited new light but the new order of things did not happen so I needed loving counsel and encouragent from the big trees of righteousness and then to keep up with the chariot I had to stop calling it a new order and refer to it as the new system of things but no one posted that letter from the faithful and discreet slave on the information board so how was I to know it had changed back to the new world? And millions now living went on to their heavenly reward while the publishers of the good news anxiously await their vegan lions in paradise.

    tiki your fine spiritual progress is evidenced by your skilful use of the pure language, the healthful pattern of words, so may you continue to reach out and widen out, but never drift away, be consumed by the world and its desires, or as JoenB75 says, become prone to a showy display of one’s means of life, because we are not ignorant of the machinations of the devil and his designs, but follow the grand instructor, who is also our grand conductor, the word from behind us how pleasant its tone (hang about I’m bursting into Kingdom melody, now)
