after listening to the leaked videos this is what i think it’s all about.
first i don’t believe they will want to much personal information ie bank accounts etc do to potential legal problems down the road.
what i think is their goal is once all publishers are in the data base they then have no need for written information about any issue concerning a publisher and how issues are handled by elders and the branch etc... this information now is in their own data base and can be deleted or manipulated by them at any time.
Those 750,000 in the current system would also include: inactive ones, faded ones, d'fed ones, child publishers that never got baptized, and possibly deceased JWs - which combined might be 100,000 plus.
Could be looking at potentially clear evidence that the current numbers of JWs in the US is fraudulent, half of what is claimed, which then could explain the massive downsizing and consolidating of congregations.
i would suppose that there are many at very sensitive operations at headquarters and around the world that are moles or double agents a 5th column if you will that are in but mentally out and full of hated for the governing body.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/fifth_column.
a fifth column is any group of people who undermine a larger group from within, usually in favour of an enemy group or nation.
the activities of a fifth column can be overt or clandestine.

in the famous verse from mathew chapter 1 verse 23 i believe the writer proclaims that mary a virgin was going to give birth to a son he would be called emmanuel.
he even stated this was to fulfill a prophecy.
thats prophecy is in isaiah chapter 7:14. .

what do you think the crazies or strangest book they ever printed is?.
"Finished Mystery" book which was almost climaxed by the "Revelation Climax" book. Same subject. Different interpretations. Both discarded.
does anyone know what it means to be "securely wrapped up in the bag of life"?
is this a new special wt terminology?
they said it or a slight variant of it, several times in the broadcast, perhaps 3?
Does anyone know what it means to be "securely wrapped up in the bag of life"?
reasoning book pg.234 onwards ( from the jw org website):.
last days.
definition: the bible uses the expression “last days” to refer to the concluding time period leading up to a divinely appointed execution that marks the end of a system of things.

Evidently he was referring to the eight headed snake Yamata no Orochi of Japanese mythology which finds its anti-type in the eight governing body members of Jehovah's Witnesses who all claim to be alien residents of earth.
The Nihongi description of Yamata no Orochi (tr. Aston 1896:1:52-53) states:
"It had an eight-forked head and an eight-forked tail; its eyes were red, like the winter-cherry; and on its back firs and cypresses were growing. As it crawled it extended over a space of eight hills and eight valleys."
it was pretty mundane for the most part, same songs, same outline.
the only new thing they added was the video at the end, where stephen lett speaks to the visitors and commends them for coming and recommends they go to jwdotorg and also start a bible study.
they also showed a bar graph with figures increasing every year for jws, memorial attendance and memorial partakers.
Copy of actual video of Lett & Co, and other governing body meetings:
