I do not remember the specific publication, but in the late 1980's there was an order to case all personal bible study mini groups. Back in the late 1970's through early 1980's there were Bible studies done at the home. Generally, people would pick a chapter or two and they studied and debate it among the others. Later these bible studies were forbidden. It kinda felt that Bible was apostate literature and we should study only WT literature. I believe these warnings were regular as I have seen them in older publications from 1920's.

Why study when the Org has done it all for you?
OK, ok...by that reasoning, why do ANYTHING for yourself....?
