  i'm at the recorded meeting right now.

  trying to hide my disgust sitting up front listening to geoffrey jackson quibble about the pharisaical minutai of sanctification vs. vindication.

  the audience is thrilled that they now have 'permission' to say god's name can be vindicated.

  Stephen Lett just said that God gave Jesus "immorality" in the heavens. The audience laughed and he corrected himself. Seconds later he said "organism". Couldn't help thinking he dodged a bullet with that word too 😉

  pale.emperor:

  It ultimately means nothing. 'Debates about words' like Paul warned about.

  New light:

  Ezekiel's temple vision no longer represents the spiritual temple from the founding of Christianity. Now it's specifically only about JWs today from 1919 forward. How convenient.

  In the video they just showed, they announced that some of the buildings being dedicated today were nursing homes for older Witnesses. Don't people realize that these are the same generation who were guaranteed they would never grow old? Isn't this hitting ANYBODY in the audience?!

  I'm at the recorded meeting right now. Trying to hide my disgust sitting up front listening to Geoffrey Jackson quibble about the Pharisaical minutai of sanctification vs. vindication. The audience is thrilled that they now have 'permission' to say God's name can be vindicated. So pathetic! I wonder if anybody's noticed my droll expression, lack of applause and stifled eye rolling.

  Well see that's the thing, now I feel like the Witnesses I've spoken to have this "Soon the preaching work will stop" mentality and that that means Armageddon is closer and now is the time to decide to get in the ark or get off.

  That's the frustrating part: No matter WHAT happens, it can and will be spun in their favor.

  1: So even less magazines, 75% reduction at this point, (used to be 24 a year). It's just as well, they were just recycling the same topics year after year after year and will probably continue to do so.

  2: The current 2nd study publication is being simplified.

  3: The Simplified WT is now going to be the ONLY WT, is that right? (Not that the normal edition was so advanced to start with.)

  So besides the dedication program and inevitable 'encouraging' experiences, no other news?
