i finally had to tell my active wife about it....the wt lesson is next week but she has not read it yet, and none of her friends have mentioned it to her.

big buzz in 1995 when i was active, but hear very little except here now.

At first, JW's were happy to see the annointed remnant die away one by one because that meant the end was closer and closer.

Now, they want them to stay alive, to fulfill this new understanding.

Come forward 13 years to 2008. The "generation" now refers to annointed remnant. Indicating that annointed would still be on earth when the Great Tribulation and Armagedon take place.

Gee,

How unclear can a sign be ?

I'm sure that the older ones in the congregation are still holding on to the 70 to 80 year definition of a generation, because they don't want to die, and all the rest will see that there is no end in sight because there has always been new annointed people with plenty of life left in them.

So what is the change in simple terms?

I'm also waiting for a simple clear and SHORT explanation.

Thanks for the link mickey mouse

Next weekend congregations around the world will be studying the WT article on the new definition of a "generation".

And this new definition is ? ___________________

You can't be talking about the 1995 change, that isn't a new definition....
