Lost for words...surely all these changes will make some witnesses think what are we involved in here? Wait a minute, I forgot, independent thinking is still banned.

hope someone post a video of it on youtube.
The very first announcement will be telling everyone not to post any recordings of his talk onto social media or you tube. If his talks are truth and Bible based, aren't we supposed to spread the message of Bible truth?

Bro Lett at the recent special talk given from the Australasian branch mentioned the year 1975. I think it was in regards to keeping up with jehovahs organization and not holding on to old beliefs. Right at the beginning of this special talk we were told no audio recordings to be made, so I can't recall the fine details on why he used 1975.

Any chance you know where in the Bible that is found?

Surely if this is true, it would be news worthy to go on the latest news section on jworg. It's certainly news worthy in our congregation to know which local brothers are now growing beards.

Ban on Independent Meetings
by lssjr insource - march 2021 announcements - - https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5085868283920384/2021-march-147-english-german-announcements-reminders.
this is a sobering reminder of what happened some 40 years ago when raymond franz and others were literally kicked out from the jehovah's witnesses for having pre-arranged private spiritual discussions.lesson: paragraph 7 is another example of the i and t in dr. steven hassan's bite model of the 21st century cult - information and thought control at its best!!!!
"my gosh, there must be a lot of independent meetings these days.

We need another reminder from the faithful slave about these private get togethers. Or maybe they are becoming acceptable again.

And another one. This one was a quick build in the mid 1990's to seat approx 60. At that time there were around 15 publishers, this hall was built to handle the expected increase before the end. Today there are approximately 5 publishers left.

Thanks all for your replies regarding the ID and PIN codes.
Sounds like an app that may soon be encouraged to us in this area. The wait is on....

At this stage i havnt heard of any local witnesses using these apps, the go to app used here is "what's app". And that covers everything they seem to need.
I have just installed New World Publisher (NW Publisher) to take a look. First thing it asks for is a congregation ID and pin, and if you don't know it, contact the local elders to get it. Are these IDs and pins something JW.org use? I'm sure if I was to ask a local elder for the likes of these codes, they would not know them and ask why I wanting them? If I tell them i want to install New World Publisher (NW Publisher) app, I would be quickly questioned over what that app is and what I was doing.
I have uninstalled this app, unless someone knows some ids and pins?
