  I do what Jesus said to do..I eat and drink in remembrance of his death

  Gm, even the "apostates" around Raymond Franz did, in separate clandestine set ups, just like the apostles

  Hidden pleasures are profound. .

  how about the fact that there is a tribe of Joseph and another one for one of his sons? a departure from previous lists? A throwback to the original blessings, but why cropping up at that late date?

  BB have a heart, you want all of us to remain virgins? 12^2 k is bad enough.! seriously,

  numbers can have symbolic meanings, but 144 000 is one of largest spelled out precisely, more than the 4 corners of the earth, or the 10 kings.

  (not advocating for wt, just remarking)

  the other new light that wt still has to come up with, is joining the frayed ends of their anointed generation prophecy.

  The wt anointed being the remnant of the 144 00o sealed ones.

  The full bearded army with the golden clubs in the above illustration, are the immortal ones in action. at Armageddon. For that to happen, , the wt partakers have to die, to go to heaven at the latest with the onset of the great tribulation. but

  that means they can not be the generation. because:

  did not Jesus say. the generation will pass only after all these terrible things will have occurred ? passed?

  wt will not get a pass as the true prophet on that one , the overlap will make it even worse. therefore:

  new light:

  the remnant of the 144 000 are not "the" generation

  Rev 7 has the 144 000 come out of the 12 tribes of israel. jesus said prior to that, the apostles would rule over the 12 tribes. therefore, wt has it, that the 12 tribes are those with an earthly hope. In another interpretation the 12 tribes must be the "Israel of God" that according to wt are the anointed only. so, do the 144 000 come out of the earthly class? possibly , the apostles did. but are the 144 000 sealed out of the rest of the israel of god? or the OS, or both?

  they follow jesus "wherever he goes", are probably the deserving souls killed with the axe, to rule for a 1000 years. of Rev 20.

  They must have christlike self control to be like him, male virgins as per Rev 14.

  Not uncommon to have a special groupe, elite, senate if you will, clustered around a government. so

  what is this new light? , sorry, can't stand orateurs.

  now they start inviting to their "commemorate the death of jesus" event.

  find the unleavened bread in the wastepaper basket

  Lidf: that shows you the symbolism of Abel's sacrifice, he too offered basically garbage, flesh, that not even the vegetarian dogs, antediluvian pigs would touch.

  to the Roman Catholic church--,

  shows you you that the catholics do it oftener, like Paul wrote: "as often as you celebrate you proclaim--

  Have no part of it - it was all a bad dream

  op": this is provided for all the dreamers, that are still not fully awake. to show by comparing the scriptures to the practises, how wrong wt is. Even by the standards that the talking snake / the remedy/ might just be a story, nothing more.

  wt promising life, via flawed doctrines, when we already have it, living it to the full, thankfully.

  twisting the occasion into an opportunity to draw allegiance to themselves:

  yeah, it is like a delayed funeral talk, wt infomercial.

  the doctrinal pretzel contortions will be hard to follow, swallow, for newcomers. Info booth/ carts will solve that.

  hopefully wt will see the "new light" direction and will soon serve wine for all. big attendance boost guaranteed, the rising "Anointed" numbers soaring past 144 000 conundrum solved.

  re tro view.

  blondie, your p re views were better, but hey, try to figure it out, the gists.

  "why to attend the memorial ?" , to see, witness the basis for judgement for not following instructions, perverting/preventing the life giving procedures.

  4) "spoke to them about 2 covenants, the new covenant and the Kingdom covenant" a new one to me, note the missing capitalization for the NEW Covenant, the one for all, for forgiveness of sins, The blood covenant, the wine symbolism, but implied [wrongly ] meaning of the Kingdom rule promises.

  The kingdom covenant is not the one meant by "the blood of the covenant"

  6) WT march 1938: "it will be right for the others to be present at such meeting".-- of course , since the last supper, there were always those that had an everlasting life hope, without wt graciously giving permission.

  7) key text missing is : John 6: "Unless you drink of my blood and eat my flesh you will not have everlasting life"

  Jesus at the last supper: "eat and drink, all of you"

  11) Math 25, wt twisting Jesus' encouragement to do humanitarian work into "primarily supporting -- the "anointed's" preaching, [wt] disciple making work"

  12) "global campaign to invite --- to the memorial" how is that doing this in memory? when he kept attendance to a minimum, dismissing unworthy Judas, when he had 500 brothers ready for later assembly? thousands that would come again for a free meal?

  14) "the gift of the ransom" as also taught by all the churches. symbolized by their cross.

  15) the real meaning is by hidden wt articles is: : by way of partaking, right to everlasting life is gained. The anointed among the partakers, renounce, sacrifice that right to aspire to the higher calling. -- as did Jesus.

  16 ) "we want to obey Jesus" well wt, do it then, and follow instructions as per scripture. in summary:

  This article hints at a new slant, bringing in the 2 covenants together, but still ignoring the pattern that The new covenant for forgiveness of sins applies to all [ of the 12 tribes], all Christian congregation members, that

  the "blood of the covenant" is not the blood of the kingdom covenant, all should partake* to get everlasting life.

  thankfully many do, hidden, in private, as did the 12 at the last supper.
