Lookie look what the Jdub Talk Forum just brough in!
Dub1:
We have the CO visit this week. As he closed the meeting tonight he said something interesting that was a direct statement from the governing body...
Now is the time to close ranks!!!
I liked these definitions;
unite; come together for fighting, unite and work together; focus a group's energies
This is the way we can ensure that we will be part of the great crowd, if we unite, come together for the spiritual warfare, unite and work together to reconcile people to Jehovah.
Dub2:
sorry, the words of the CO are the these?

if they are they are very interesting. strong words.
Dub1:
Yes the CO said it came direct from governing body. (The points after definition are my own understanding not their words.)
Dub3:
That thread was a while back, think in Sep. It definitely is an interesting statement. I really think the end is so very close. Things are happening all over the world that I don't recall in my history. It's really bad out there, people are turning on each other, their governments. We definitely need to be there for each other, cause the world is falling apart fast, economically and socially. It's a real mess.

We need to "close ranks" in a number of ways.
Draw close together for the purpose of accomplishing our ministry.
Draw close together for the supporting and building one another up.
Draw close together as a family.
I heard this expression in my Kingdom Ministry School for Ministerial Servants last November, but I thought someone else had brought it up before.
Dub4:
Hmm, I have problems to fully understand the phrase "to close ranks". Could somebody please explain them in other words?
Does it mean "to get together" or something like that?
Dub5:
that is exactly how I see it Ava...dates mean nothing to me...but the sign of these times....the things happening now ...it is speeding on us......yes I would say "to get together" sums it nicely....we really have to strive to draw close to our brothers and sisters now...we need to be really united...we will probaly have to rely on each other more than we ever have...

I took the liberty to eliminate some of the irrelevant posts. So, the GB is really tightening the grip! I can read between the lines a new witch-hunt! It's so good to have noo-lite at the apostate table! I'm dying of curiosity to see what will happen in the next year.
