Great find Mary!
I looked up in the old Aid book and the same info is also there
on page 1615 and that was published in 1971.
Thanks for the interesting info, your post is a keeper!

HERE'S A BOMBSHELL ABOUT THE 144,000 DOCTRINE......
by Mary injust when you think you've heard it all............in my research for my project, i was doing some digging around on the subject of the 144,000 and came across something in the wts's literature that absolutely stunned me and, being the generous soul that i am , wanted to pass it on to you to get your thoughts on this.. .
we all know that the society teaches that the 144,000 mentioned in revelation is speaking of "spiritual israel" and not 'fleshly israel' or even other christians in general right?
there are countless quotes throughout the literature that we are all familiar with that specifically state this, but to drive home a point, here are a few:.

Hey Rick.
I'm listening right now to the conference recording.
There doesn't seem to be much info on the Gilead Registrar issue.
Has there been any more info on this during the week since the conference?
Will Gilead close or is it just a matter of getting rid of the Registrar as they did with Ed Dunlap when they got him out?
Thanks for the conference recording.

Yes I am a real person
by BonaFide inthanks for many posts to my situation.
yes i am a real person, and if you want to pm me and ask details, i would be happy to give any details you want.
it is a little disconcerting to read how some doubt i am telling the truth, this is a tough time for me, but i still respect that you need some proof.

Hmmmm.
What are some other constructively destructive things to do while you're waiting to be called in for a judicial committee's judgment?
Any ideas?

Hey JK. If they left the hall up to you why you could have brought with you some superglue for locks. Or just stick a staple inside the lock drum. Hmmmm. They should've known not to let you wait so longgggggg.

Calling all "still in"!
by Mickey mouse inanyone up for a silent protest?
if you still report regularly, why not avoid putting a report in for the month of september; help get the service year off to a flying start?

If you're still "doing" time in field service.
Add it all up neat and proper.
And turn it in late to the Secretary.
A phone call, an email, with some excuse.
Challenge yourself to come up for an excuse every month.
The time is still counted on your timeslip.
The PO, SO and CO will see it when they go over the files.
But it won't be counted to go into the Society's monthly report.

Hey, Rick.
If your conference call is anything like the KHCONF system then you can log-in and check the origination of the listening party and how long they listened and all. Right?I believe you're going to record the conference and provide it later as a download, or online feed, is that correct?
Well, I'm interested in the contents of the discussion, but can't see spending the money on long distance charges if you'll have the conference available on your website for download or as a feed.
Best wishes.
