exactly Mary - And one could add that at the end of this great "shoulder to shoulder" campaign the biggest increase reported on their "slips that qualify them to not be ostracized" er slips to report their time spent in this grand shout of praise, the biggest increase will be the not at homes that they had to mark down on those slips.

from a Yahoo e-mail group (I love the "gotta love the gb and the greatest witness the world has ever seen)
by therevealer inwe also just back from our circuit assembly.. co told us that we have 1700 pubs in the circuit and approx 50% are involved this month in pioneer work.
the do said that this is worldwide the greatest shout of praise to jehovah since the angels shouted in applause at jehovah's creative works and that it is the greatest witness the world has ever seen.. you gotta love the governing body for coming up with this arrangement.
and you gotta love the worldwide brotherhood for responding so positively.

WT counsel that benefits... more July 15th goodies
by undercover inin the article, will you follow jehovha's loving guidance?.
you'll find the following quotes in paragraphs 4,5. in truth, the pressure to "follow after the crowd" can affect us at almost any time.
it may arise suddenly, and it can be very difficult to resist.

bravo to Undercover - I was thinking how even more of the articles could be changed like that. It is great for them to insist on the r & f following lock step like hitlers followers without further proof than "we told you we were who you must follow" equating themselves with god.

Reason for new study editions and the topics within.

i'm not sure how it is in other halls.
there are about 120 publishers in our hall, in the midwest.

It's quite simple. In the past there has been the notion that something like Hebrew might be the new language in the new system (paradise earth). However Jehobar has just recently communicated thru his holy spirit that this has been changed up. He has informed the gb that it will actually be a simplified Engrish instead. And to prepare the witlesses they were instructed to publish this new issue of the tower. They have said that it will be tried for a year and then a decision will be made whether to continue. That statement is simply for the purpose of not allowing the rank and file to have premature knowledge of this important change until all can be informed in a unified way at the assemblies this summer. They realize that the statement about trying it out for a year is probably not realistic in view of the closeness of armageddon.

For my thinking that is exactly the point. In that reference they seem to distance the rest of the annointed from the gb. It is the gb, just eight different men, who will write new doctrine.

Not sure why they would use the scripture from Luke. It is a wierd one to use for the way ones would feel about changed doctrinal thoughts.

Yes, I understand what you are saying, but the way this is stated is different. Usually they just link the two but here they are saying "When representative
members of the "slave" discern that our viewpoint on some point of truth needs to be clarified or corrected, they do not hold back from making the adjustment." When did they last say that representative members of the slave do anything to do with doctrine. They have done their best to avoid the notion that individual ones of the "faithful and discreet slave" have any say?? -
