MacHislopp >> Are they just ouija-boarding for a century now,
or,
"Are those really the leadings of Holy Spirit"?
at the 128th annual meeting of the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, on october 6 th 2012 .
during this meeting “food at the proper time” was given and the most important, was given during a symposium of six talks by members of the governing body—brothers jackson, lösch, pierce, herd, lett, and splane— which analyzed and discussed the meaning of jesus’ words recorded at.
" (matthew 24: 45, 46) it must be conceded, then, that at the end ot the world, at the "time of the end", during the presence of the lord, during the harvest, he would have in the earth a servant who would be faithful and wise.
MacHislopp >> Are they just ouija-boarding for a century now,

"Are those really the leadings of Holy Spirit"?
the watchtower society of jehovah's witnesses predicted the end of the world to come in 1975. as a result, many jehovah' witnesses started withholding from having children, higher education, while others sold their houses and donating money to the watchtower society.
please, correct me.
now, a million dollar question is, what was the watchtower doing itself in anticipation of the end of the world in 1975?.
clarity >> During a watchtower study in 1962, one of the questions was,
"should we be having children in this time of the end, or be
pioneering."
Searching for that question in the 2012 Watchtower Library CD turned up nothing. Please, can you help?

T. Jaracz taught them this "new idea".
"This suggests that resurrected ones of the 24-elders group may be involved in the communicating of divine truths today." Revelation - It's Grand Climax At Hand! (1988), page 12
the new light (tm) is on jw.org.
not had time to digest it but it's looking pretty much whathas been divulged already.
looking forward to seeing the responses from the forum and the brothers and sisters now it's in the open.
When David Splane in the video says:
"What does all of this really mean?
The great crowd and the anointed are all domstics. We are all domestics.
And brothers, we love this teaching - we love this idea."
Is he refering to himself and the other 6/7 of the GB as considering themselves to be domestics now as well?
And perhaps, a future 'faithful and discreet slave' will have to be defined yet?

Is this to understand that he himself and the other 6/7 of the GB consider themselves to be domestics now as well?
And perhaps, a future 'faithful and discreet slave' will have to be defined yet?
i'm not joking.
this is in the family/children section on jw.org - mary - joshua - daniel - ruth - and more!.
i'm lmao that these are so similar to hockey cards or baseball cards that my siblings and i used to get in trouble for collecting when we were kids.
notjustjet >> . . . wanna trade 10 character cards for 'Bible Card #5' (Abraham)?

Wow! Just awsome! The "other sheep" script writers - also going by the name 'nethinim' - are setting the FDS up to fail big time.
Steven Lett is something else (Video @6:35).
Guess what? When the program was over, the interviewees did not comment on this 'exciting new development' even once - it past by them silently. But then, hey, they were invited and in attendance - it was a great social happening!
fresh out of the jw.org website http://www.jw.org/en/news/by-region/world/jehovahs-witnesses-office-consolidation/ .
the society as from september 2012 is closing 20 branches worldwide .the best bit is the last paragraph :.
workers are available to spend more time preachingbecause of the mergers, qualified ministers who had been serving in small branches can now concentrate on preaching the good news.. a witness in africa, who was reassigned to the preaching activity, wrote: "adjusting my lifestyle to suit the new circumstances was a challenge during the first few months.
The German version of the jw.org website reports closing ' in excess of' 25 branch offices worldwide
as of October 1, 2012.
Then, by WT definition, they won't be part of the 'great crowd' any longer.
. . . btw, it is the WT February 15, 2013 issue.
All the meetings the WTBTS registers with to shore up monies lately, is it any wonder the flock does starts consolidating their means of living?
