redsetter2 did not say that sex will be permitted, but that it will not be the subject of judicial committees. You will always be condemned but you will be considered weak spiritually. As with blood transfusions, the policy before 1960 was not disfellowshipping but those who did so were considered unspiritual. The congregation could remove privileges and take action but would no longer disfellowship. This I understood from redsetter2

Is there really a Bible rule against sex without marriage?
by Halcon inregarding the poster from jw headquarters, who claimed that the gb would eventually loosen the rules regarding sex.
the question is, is there really a bible rule explicitly prohibiting sex without marriage?
because this would be the only possible reason why loosening those rules would even come up in a discussion.

Who really is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? The recent changes and the Governing Body's 10 year plan
by redsetter2 ini am sure we were all shocked at the governing body update #2 with the unusual and impulsive changes set forth.. i am an insider at whq, and when i was on reddit and in communication with avoidjw i explained to the best of my ability that the approach on disfellowshipping was going to change based on the new light at the 2023 agm, that the jubilee rumor was false, and there were going to be changes on how jws approached disfellowshipping in response to the norway situation if it didn't turn out in watchtower's favor.
the decision came because of a legal blow to watchtower, not because "holy spirit" wad directing a faithful slave, who is going to become the "evil slave", more explanation on this soon.. everything i stated came true.
i left reddit exjw community due to the immature and mentally unstable nature there, and yet as has been the case my words came true.

What redsetter2 says about sex matches what Furuli wrote and sent to the governing body 5 years ago.
The word pornoeia is not a specific but a generic word meaning “sexual immorality”. The Christian Greek Scriptures contain three references: 1) sexual intercourse between a married person and an unmarried person, 2) sexual intercourse between unmarried persons, and 3) sexual intercourse between homosexuals.
In 1983, bestiality and fondling the genitals of a person to whom one is not married were included in pornoeia, and in 2018, “sexual immorality” without skin-to-skin contact was added to the definition. The three additions are human commandments with no basis in the Bible.
According to Furuli, only 11 of the 45 sins currently the subject of judicial committees (today they are just called committees) are based on the Bible.

Former Soviet Country Witnesses who Rebelled Against the GB
by NotFormer ini remember the story going around the traps (here, perhaps?
) a couple of decades ago, about a country formerly behind the iron curtain.
when the soviet union crumbled, the jws were able to re-establish contact with the underground jw movement.

There are currently 2 or maybe 3 state-registered organizations of Jehovah's Witnesses in Romania.
During last summer the Romanian JWs had 3 congresses: the JWs of the WT (Warwick): "Be patient"; The True Faith: "Determined for the Kingdom of Jehovah" and the International Association of JWs: "A people for his Name".

Where is Tony?
by Athanasius inon february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

Why was he not seen by anyone in conventions, in the kingdom hall, in preaching, at the last annual meeting, on zoom?
Probably because he no longer attends much or perhaps no longer goes to meetings because after 1 year there would be evidence and information, AM3 was the most famous member of the governing body and also known by exes, inactive people, people who study, friends of the truth, etc. ..etc...
We hope to learn the truth about the events that occurred in Warwick between November 2022 and February 2023. -

From what a Bethelite had said, Anthony Morris III resigned because he did not agree with the changes that the governing body was approving.
A user had written that the material for the annual meeting is prepared in February-March but is approved before. Maybe I sound crazy but things coincide, the governing body brings in two new members to have an overwhelming majority on the changes to be made such as hours in the service, beards, last minute repentance and the new ones that will happen soon that will have a notable impact, Morris votes against and creates problems for the body by blocking the changes, but he is in the minority and they put him on the ropes, in the end he leaves and slams the door.
I find it strange that AM3 still hasn't contacted or spoken to any of his friends who think like him and this information still hasn't reached the internet. But the latest leaks seem to give the impression that AM3 "is singing"

A Modest proposal to solve the 1914 problem
by r51785 inthroughout watchtower history dates have been a problem.
the usual solution for failed prophetic dates has been to kick the can down the road.
this needs to be done with 1914. the generation that will never pass away is now 110 years old and therefore is past its useful life span.

As you can see from the guidelines, the Watchtower study articles if published and approved by the governing body (we still don't know if they have been approved) would in one fell swoop eliminate many problems!
They shift the blame onto the Bible Students. The slave does not have to apologize because it is not his teaching but that of Russell and others. The controversy over 587 and 607 disappears because 1914 will be based solely on the prophecies of Jesus and not with a 7-time

The guidelines were these listed below, or something similar.
1° article - The faithful and discreet slave appeared only after 1919, so the understanding about 1914 was not a slave teaching.
2° article - The Bible Students prophecy about 1914was not fulfilled, in fact they expected that the end would come in October 1914, but this did not happen
3° article - Nebuchadnezzar's dream cannot be used to calculate 1914 , because it is not specified in the Scriptures. See explanation on how to use types and anti-types.
4° article - Does this mean that 1914 no longer matters ? No, the prophecies of Jesus began to be fulfilled from 1914 until today. Mattew 24

In reality they already have something in mind. A few years ago a series of 4 W articles on the topic of 1914 and Types and antitypes were in preparation. In some Branches these articles based on 4 guidelines were being prepared. I don't know if they'vebeen approved or are still waiting for them to bereleased.
