Most influential branch offices?
by comment inwhich are the most influential branch offices of jehovah's witnesses around the world?.
for some time i have been wondering whether there are tendencies toward either greater liberalism or greater conservatism among various branch committees, and whether any of this could have an impact on brooklyn's policies.. here are my guesses in order (although i can't claim any insider knowledge):.
1) united states (they've just set up their own branch committee, although presumably it will be in lockstep with...well, either the governing body or the legal department?).

My "baptism anniversary"
by comment ini just realized i was baptized eight years ago on this date.. does that ever hit you when it rolls around?.
i've been out for the last two years and can't say i thought about it much on the previous anniversaries--or even when i was active.. not that i'm choked up about it or anything.
it's just interesting to think back.

12. likewise in modern times, the christian congregation is compelled to disfellowship unrepentant wrongdoers.
but what of those who sincerely regret the reproach they have brought upon jehovah's name, organization and people?

Gems from August 2001 KM
by comment inwhat i loved about the majority of these quotes are the implications that an orthodox reader would be oblivious to.. you are "a theatrical spectacle"!
paragraph 5: "when you encounter opposition or think that your ministry is not getting results, remember that you are the center of universal attention.".
(but of course, don't forget psalm 8:4, in case you ever think you have any importance outside of going in field service.).

Must the GB consist of anointed ones?
by comment inwith regard to another thread ("a report you may be interested in") and the thought that the society may be looking to eliminate the obligation for members of the governing body to be of the anointed class (wow, now there's a fred franz-style sentence...lol), here are some quotes that touch on this issue.
i've put key phrases in capital letters:.
july 1, 1995 wt: "dwellers together in a restored 'land'".
