if doctrinal explanations are missing from the article, it is because they are also missing from the magazine.. i would like to give my thanks again to my source for supplying me with the magazine article weeks ahead of its scheduled release.
it showed remarkable courage, because risks were taken.
From the article:
“It is vital that we recognize the faithful slave. Our spiritual health and our relationship with God depend on this channel.” – Matthew 4:4; John 17:3.
Damn! Goodby Jesus. And they have the balls (sorry) to quote John 17:3. Maybe they after all are producing a new Bible with a new John 17:3:
"This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and [the Slave, The Governing Body]. Oh yes, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ."

“Were the Bible Students in the years that lead up to 1914 the appointed channel through which Christ would feed his sheep? No. They were still in the growing season, and the arrangement for a channel to provide spiritual food was taking shape. The time had not yet come for the weed-like imitation Christians to be separated from the true Christian wheat .” (w13 7/15 p.19)
This opens the door to discard any belive held by Russel and Co. with a blink of the eye. Is it 1914 at risk now??

Blondie: Can you do a ahead-of-month-review? Lol.
Cedars: In case you can share, the person that leaked it, knew it would end up here? Or it was innocent?

Excellent excellent excellent! many thanks to Cedars and Co ;-)
as everybody jere knows, there is no requirement for a christian to "count and report" their time.
that's totally made-up by the wt/fds/gb, so, they have to make rules to deal with their own rules.... .
re: showing consideration for those involved in theocratic projects .
Thanks Chicken for sharing. in the WT world, is all about the numbers.
yes, it's that time of year, once again, when the society starts reliving jesus' last few days on earth as a human.... in addition to all the propaganda about the 144,000 and only they being "allowed" to partake of jesus' blood and body at the annual jw deny christ ritual...another jw teaching, though not as dissected, is the teaching that judas iscariot left the room before the bread and wine were shared with the apostles.. it's important to jw doctrine that this be the case.
because only those who make up the true christian congregation, the annointed, the first of these the faithful apostles, are to partake of these emblems.
if jesus was already aware of judas' plan to betray him and yet judas was present for this new, important ritual, it would be rendered useless by his partaking.
It's amazing that something so important the scriptures are so confused and leave people guessing. And then people say that the all-powerful was the author of the Bible. Couldn't the Bible be crystal-clear?
I mean, if a book author will publish a book with so many guessing escenarios, I don't think he will even make it to the New York Times Bestselling list...

From Luke 22:19-21
19 Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying: “This means my body which is to be given in ? YOUR ? behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” 20 Also, the cup in the same way after they had the evening meal, he saying: “This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in ? YOUR ? behalf.
21 “But, look! the hand of my betrayer is with me at the table.
Doesn't this mean that Judas WAS during the Lord's Meal, when Jesus said: "T he hand of my betrayer is with me at the table"????
looking at this thread by winstonsmith, http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/249671/1/notes-from-2013-memorial-talk-appreciate-what-christ-has-done-for-you.
made me think, how is the memorial celebrated in different parts of the world?
do they all fall on this year's march 26?
Lol @ Zed. For real? I bet the GB/WT/FDS will send a letter next year explaining how to read a clock.
leaving the org was not a doctrinal choice for me as it was for many on this board.
i left mentally because of the boredom and then i physically left by being dfd.
i have been reading here for about a month or so and now i know i made the right decision.
Welcome!
