For long time witnesses and those not as well spoken, it must be difficult to place leaflets only. Return visits will be even harder. Without their normal tools of the trade they are going to feel less useful.

What happens to marriages upon the arrival of Armageddon?
by insearchoftruth ina couple of paradise earth questions: .
1) if you are a married, baptized witness couple (both people being baptized) and armageddon arrives, will the couple still be married on paradise earthtm?
2) if you are married to an unbelieving mate (ubm) and armageddon arrives, will the witness be free to remarry on paradise earth?.

*** w56 10/1 p. 604 par. 23 ‘He That Marries Not Does Better’ ***
Aside from marriage privileges, the “other sheep” surviving the battle of Armageddon will have untold privileges of service opened up to them by the resurrection of the dead, and these privileges will continue even after the purpose of marriage has been fulfilled and childbearing on earth ceases and husbands are relieved of the obligation to give their wives children.—Acts 24:15.
This sounds like Fred Franz's way of thinking

The REAL reason for the elder and ms appointment change......
by EndofMysteries inas seen in recent posts, beginning later this year appointments and deletions of elders and ms will only happen through the circuit overseer.
this means that individual congregations and elders have no say anymore.
if the gb want only certain people in or out, they tell the co and he makes it happen.

Thanks for the link Obbiette, it states that these are the flaws of establishing plausible liability
Flaws [ edit ]
The doctrine has six major flaws:
- It was an open door to the abuse of authority; it required that the parties in question could be said to have acted independently, which in the end was tantamount to giving them license to act independently. [ 15 ]
- It rarely worked when invoked; the denials made were rarely plausible and were generally seen through by both the media and the populace. [ 16 ] One aspect of the Watergate crisis is the repeated failure of the doctrine of plausible deniability, which the administration repeatedly attempted to use to stop the scandal affecting President Richard Nixon and his aides.
- "Plausible denial" only increases the risk of misunderstanding between senior officials and their employees. [ 17 ]
- It only shifts blame, and generally, constructs rather little.
- If the claim fails, it seriously discredits the political figure invoking it as a defense.
- If it succeeds, it creates the impression that the government is not in control of the state.

All appointed men are being told they have to pioneer now!
by stuckinarut2 inyes, you read correctly..... all appointed men have been told in a new letter that they have to pioneer to "set the lead" whenever there is a "special" campaign month.
they use some scripture saying that these ones have to show by example.... so for any of us who are appointed and have learned ttatt, it is going to be very hard to fade during this time!.

Haven't the figures shown that the dubs are putting more hours into witnessing per head than ever before? If they can't get the percentage of new recruits up higher then at least they can say that the witnessing work is increasing by a staggering percentage and it is proof that the important work is advancing ahead at a greater pace than any other time in their history, proof that the end is near. Basically, a new stategy in keeping the momentum going full steam ahead since they know they can't predict dates anymore.

Frozen and Sparlock the warrior wizard
by NewYork44M ingiven that magic is from satan, this is what we learned from the horrible story about the little boy and sparlock the warrior wizard.

The Sparlock video has it's own magic happening in it. The plane which has a man flying it lands to earth as a toy.

Could someone remind me, what is there warped reasoning in classifying a talk as being special?

Now that you mention it, females are often called to the stage to give their experiences. Of course it's a form of preaching to the congregation but the org. just ignores this for the sake of having a heart warming, tear jerking, ear ticklying story being told.
