And LBNL: New Light!
thinking a lot last days about the new light about the fds, today i got an idea about the following.. - both the 1) annointed and 2) the rank and file witness aka great crowd are now part of the domestics.. so, in practice, it doesn't matter you have a heavenly or and earthly hope for the future.. because, the domestics can have a heavenly or an earthly hope.. what i think is that this part of the new light sets open the gates for jehovahs witnesses with a heavenly hope.. and more in future: how longer the "new systems of things" will stay away, the watchtower can switch to a doctrine with only a heavenly hope, "living for ever in a paradise in heaven".. what do you think about this?!?.

@james_woods interesting thoughts. What I think about the new light: it doesn't matter if a jw is annoined or a Great Crowd person. Everything is ok. They are from now one both rank-and-file witnesses! That's what Domestics mean in real small town JW kingdom-land: rank and file!
as part of the wt's recent push to get the r&f "to study and recount the history of the earthly part of jehovahs organization" there is a curious article in the from our archives featurette of the august 15th, 2012 watchtower.
it offers a highly sanitized version of early jw history.
but what is particularly strange is this revisionist history re-categorizing of an early bible student/jw, one hugo riemer.
About the picture of the pre-1971 GB: from Knorr to the right they just look like Himmler (Knorr), Hess (Franz) and Speer (Henschel).
When you look at the picture you see that the power is at the right side and the no powers are at the left side...

So, in practice, it doesn't matter you have a heavenly or and earthly hope for the future.
Because, the Domestics can have a heavenly or an earthly hope.
What I think is that this part of the new light sets open the gates for jehovahs witnesses with a heavenly hope.
And more in future: how longer the "new systems of things" will stay away, the watchtower can switch to a doctrine with only a heavenly hope, "living for ever in a paradise in heaven".
What do you think about this?!?

to all body of elders of the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses:.
1) the following announcement has to be read by the coordinator of the body of elders at the week 42 service meeting:.
"samuel herd, geoffrey jackson, m. stephen lett, gerrit losch, anthony morris iii, guy h. pierce, david h. splane and mark sanderson are no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.
I wrote my posting for joking, but how more I think about the issue, how more it become a realistic scenario when you and I had prior the annual meeting in october the opinion about the F & D slave. A year ago, we would be ousted from the organisation. The terrible 8 of the GB do have the opinion and got away with it, a coup management style. What a joke!

It's called Mike the Knight, with his little Sparlock sister! To much similarities!! The WTS stole the Caleb format!!! Watch Mike and you see Caleb.
Watch his little magical prinses sister and see Sparlock!
the watchtower society cq jehovah's witnesses has always had an amateur leadership.
do you agree with me, that this will become the biggest problem of the jw believe?
