The Watchtower can change 144,000 to 144 million, 144 billion, even 144 trillion and the sheeple will follow. because those left in the organization are people who are docile, foolish, or easily led.

This generation” they must have been baptised before 1992 when Fred Franz died due to the overlapping generation doctrine ( ok there may be some random sister still alive after that date, but since Fred was 99 it’s unlikely she lived much longer. It would have been a “she” since a she lives much longer--AND YET no one knows about them🤨 bold added.
Dgs. good point!. such a long lived anointed would reach to 2075, given the same life spans ( Franz+ or "Francine") after 1992.
The angels are doing the sealing, so no one on earth really knows about that either.
The sealed 144k are not the only anointed, all Christians are, all the 12 tribes, out of which the "rulers" are sealed. Rev, 7. "out of the tribes" 13 times!

Min, good idea. Make 144,000 a symbolic number not literal, after all the 12 tribes listed in Revelation are not literal but symbolic.
Revelation listing
Judah twelve thousand sealed; out of the tribe of
Reuben twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Gad twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Asher twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Naphtali twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
*Manasseh twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Simeon twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
*Levi twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Issachar twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Zebulun twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
*Joseph twelve thousand; out of the tribe of
Benjamin twelve thousand sealed.”—Revelation 7:4-8.
*Tribe of Levi not in literal tribe listing
*Tribe of Joseph not in literal tribe listing
Instead 2 tribes were listed due to Joseph double inheritance as only qualified first born
Manasseh listed in Revelation but not *Ephraim
COMPARE (Numbers 1:17, 47) Literal listing

Anyway I believe Cook is the first GB member definitely NOT of “ this generation”
since he only decided he was anointed around 11 years ago.
Diogenesister
Where did you get the information he only began partaking 11 years ago??? I hadnt thought about the fact that once the current GB dies off, because they have to be baptised AND anointed prior to 1992, they are not going to be able to find any new GB members that qualify of "this Generation"

they have to be baptised AND anointed prior to 1992
Dgs,
Traditionally the anointed become such at their baptism. but (sealing their fate (adjusting their neckline) is a different story. so:
we could will see another " Changing of the (Guard" ians of Doctrine, GOD= GB) before 2075. Also: Overlappers, Underlappers are the anointed in total, not the GB, Governors.
instead 2 tribes were listed due to Joseph double inheritance
B: Thanks for the reminder.
Many of the tabulations of the 12 tribes in he OT were for land allotments, and Levi did not figure great in that. That missing tribe took the lead in idolatry in the far north of Israel, in defiance of their assignment, near Jerusalem.
Many of the tribe of Joseph might be found on this forum. seeing the situation that exists, exposing it in defiance of the majority (establishments) , and being punished for it, getting more insights, doing good and well in the "world", and helping in the overall process of setting things in order.
not endorsing, just recording.

With this september edition article, I can say an edition later, is the fundament of a near future change in the 144000 doctrine.
What could it be?
