    I'm really sure that the vast majority of b&s don't know this ….!

    Remember the quotation in the recent w 15.01.2000 § 18

    "Sixth, the number of genuine anointed disciples of Christ is dwindling,
    though some will evidently still be on earth when the great tribulation
    begins."

    Agape,

    G'day Mac,

    What really intrigues me about the newbies on the GB is this:

    When they started taking the emblems, how were they regarded in their local Kingdom Hall?

    We all have seen the sideways glances at those partaking of the emblems, the snide comments, etc. So how about these guys? How did they break through the glass ceiling as it were and become accepted, even rising to the big round table?

    And here we have a situation where the GB is getting younger despite the sealing being completed in 1935. There sure were a lot of replacements, weren't there? It makes you wonder where all the unfaithful anointed are?

    Cheers,

    Ozzie

    Any number games in connection with the governing body, vintage 1919, is useless, in every instance it has proven to be false. this is not math, or even gaming theory.
