I remember in the early 80's there was a letter read in the congo asking brothers with computer skills to volunteer to go to bethel and help the society set up it's computer network. After the meeting a brother came up to me and said, "Well, I guess they need brothers with educations now don't they".

What did Pastor Russell Say:
My advice is, then, give your children an education up to the public school limit, not even attempting to take them through high school, for they get plenty of Higher Criticism in the high schools, and it will not be long before they have it in the common schools also.

What did Pastor Russell Say:
WORLD--End of.
Q852:2:: QUESTION --When will the world come to an end? (P.W.L.) ANSWER --According to the Scriptures the term "world"signifies age or dispensation. Three great worlds are outlined
in the Divine Plan of the Ages, as revealed in the Bible. (See
2 Pet. 3:5-13.) The first "world" or dispensation passed
away at the time of the Flood. The second "world," or
"present evil world," is likewise to pass away, in a fiery time
of trouble--not a literal "fire," but a destructive season of
lawlessness that will destroy the "elements"--labor,
capitalistic, etc., etc., that go to make up the present social
order. "The world to come wherein dwelleth righteousness"
will never come to end, but is to
{Page Q853}
continue throughout eternity. The world that now is"
(Titus 2:12) is already being violently shaken, and is
beginning to crumble away financially, politically, socially, and
ecclesiastically. The evidences about us, in the fulfillment of
the Scripture prophecies, are clear and strong that within the
next decade, the new and better order ("the world to come")
will be established in the earth.

Only Jehovah's Witnesse
those of the anointed remnant and the "great crowd," as a united organization under the protection of the Supreme Organizer, have any Scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by Satan the Devil. (Revelation 7:9-17; 2 Corinthians 4:4) They will make up the "flesh" that Jesus Christ said would be saved through the worst tribulation of all human history.Watchtower January 1, 1915 page 13
We should be very careful in our use of language. If
we were to say to the majority of people that we believe
that only the elect Church will have immortality, they
would misunderstand us altogether--they would misunderstand
us to mean that all the remainder of humanity
were to perish like brute beasts.

THE PRINCE OF PEACE."
--ISAIAH 9:1-7.--DECEMBER 25.--
Golden Text:--"His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."--R.V.
EVEN though Christmas day is not the real anniversary
of our Lord's birth, but more properly the annunciation
day or the date of his human begetting
(Luke 1:28), nevertheless, since the celebration of
our Lord's birth is not a matter of divine appointment or
injunction, but merely a tribute of respect to him, it is
not necessary for us to quibble particularly about the date.
We may as well join with the civilized world in celebrating
the grand event on the day which the majority celebrate
--"Christmas day."

Blondie:
It's funny that for 28 years I hardly read the WT much less the study articles. It was just so mindnumbing. Now I can't wait to read your study article comments. I am reading more of the WT now than I ever have.

New Watchtower Distribution System...
by zeroday into expedite the final delivery of wt literature the watchtower has adopted a new distribution system.
as the rolls of paper and ink etc arrive at the printing facilities they go directly to the printing presses where 10's of thousands of books, magazines, tracts etc are printed every hour.
they are then packaged and sent to the shipping docks where they are loaded onto semi trucks.

Blondie, is this true or just a joke? If true how do you know?
Actually, it's quite true. They announced early in the year the Awake would go to once a month. They used a lame excuse that they want to concentrate on more spiritual material. As usual they are adverse to truth and the fact is they know what everyone else knows that it just ends up in landfill anyway.

She just couldn't throw them away. The "brothers" tried to offer them to JWs for their libraries but no takers. It was a lovely bonfire.
It's funny how they can't bear to part with these gems of truth. Until, of course, new light makes them obsolete, then they can't burn them fast enough.

The trucks then depart only to arrive at the local land fill and dump them directly into the landfill drastically cutting down the time it takes to reach it's final destination.
