I think the change has to be with God's name on Deuteronomy. They explained something like that at the AGM.

What you think??
Re: Adjustments to Draw Close to Jehovah
Dear Brothers:
Some changes involving our understanding of the meaning of God’s name and what it re p- resents have been made to the first chapter of Draw Close to Jehovah. Because this book will be studied at the Congregation Bible Study beginning the week of January 6, 2014, arrangements have been made to update the text in the digital formats that are available on jw.org by December 31, 2013. Updated files in the EPUB, HTML, MOBI (Amazon Kindle), PDF, and Watchtower ONLINE LIBRARY formats will be released simultaneously. The audio recording of chapter 1 also will be redone and released at the same time. If the updated chapter is available in the lan- guage of your congregation, the brothers assigned to conduct or read for the Congregation Bible Study should be sure to use the latest text. Check the publishers’ page for the words “December 2013 Printing” to ensure that you have the latest text. This appears in all electronic copies except the HTML format.
At times, you may notice that the text of publications on jw.org does not match what is in a printed copy of the same publication. Reprinting publications to include updated information can take months or even years. However, the copies on jw.org can be updated more quickly. Therefore, the publication on jw.org will always contain the most up-to-date version of the text. Printed copies of the book Draw Close to Jehovah that contain the aforementioned changes will not be available before the book is studied in the congregations. Therefore, do not request a new printed copy in expectation that it will contain the updated information.
We are pleased to have the means to make these updates available to you quickly so you can benefit by having the updated understanding available when you study this material. — Prov. 4:18.
Be assured of our warm love and best wishes.
Pixel: This is the more telling part of how they think.
PS to coordinator of the body of elders:
Since this matter is time sensitive, please arrange for this letter to be read to the congre- gation at the first Service Meeting or Watchtower Study after its receipt. Thereafter, it should be posted on the information board.
Pixel: If they made this change months in advance because of the "new understanding of the meaning of God's name", (it's included in their new Bible) why they did not make the change right way? they had a lot of time, not waiting until the last minute.

Who is the faithful and discreet slave?
by wearewatchingyouman inwhen i discuss things with my father regarding whether a governing body is needed for christians one theme that is constant with him is "if it's not the gb who is the faithful and discreet slave - who else is giving food in these days to god's people?".
i've been working on a response to this for the last couple of months and am just curious as to who christians who are ex-witnesses interpret the faithful and discreet slave to be, and the parable in general.. .
i guess i'm just looking to round out my argument and have a few different angles.

FDS - Just a parable. Nothing more. Not a prophecy.

What if the nations would have submitted to God's Kingdom in 1914?
by processor inthough i have written this for the alternative daily text, it is quite serious.
jws complain that the nations refused to submit to god's kingdom in 1914. what if they had done this?.
the kings of the earth take their stand and high officials gather together as one against jehovah and against his anointed one.

"Offer to individuals who demostrate sincere interest in the truth". There you have it. no interest in the Bible, God, or Jesus, but interest in the truth. And we all know that in JW land "Truth" = JWism.

Why are there no black angels?
by snare&racket injw literature is racist as hell.
jesus looks like an american folk singer, the governing body look like a corrupt version of an enron luncheon.. the jw's literally print different magazines for africa with african pictures, black people instead of white, to make it 'more appealing' to them.... just to be clear that means they think the opposite is true too!.
....and then there is the lack of black angels..... .

I dont need to say a word:
...the curse which Noah pronounced upon Canaan was the origin of the black race. Certain it is that when Noah said, "Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren," he pictured the future of the Colored race. They have been and are a race of servants, but now in the dawn of the twentieth century, we are all coming to see this matter of service in its true light and to find that the only real joy in life is in serving others; not bossing them. There is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant, and the joy that he gets from rendering faithful service is one of the purest joys there is in the world (The Golden Age, July 24, 1929: 702).
...our colored brothers have a great cause for rejoicing. Their race is meek and teachable, and from it comes a high percentage of the theocratic increase (The Watchtower, Feb. 1, 1952: 95).
By the way, by 1929, the FDS was already stablished and publishing the will of God, according to the latest new light.
