It now reads the same as the NIV one of Christendoms bibles !
It uses Mallow

hey everyone!
i haven't posted here in a while, over a year i think.
just goes to show where i'm at in the recovery stage.
I'm finding this thread very interesting.
It's got me thinking about how this would apply if a congregation had a "constitution"?
For example, in Australia the individual congregations had to unanimously accept a
congregation specific constitution in order to continue recieving the
Charitable Institution Tax concession.
I noticed therein that members were described as 'active publishers' of the so and so congregation.
So, does the congregation's constitutional description have any bearing on this threads direction?
I'm thinking,,, ok if I am not an active publisher then I have no rights that a member would have, or be
subject to any "treatment" that a member would. If I write a letter stating my resignation from the
membership that should be the end of it, shouldn't it?
LIke as a financial or non financial member of an organisation that describes membership criteria.
Just wondering.

you know you have been out of the organization for some time when no members of the present governing body were "ruling" during your sojurn.
i have tried to keep up with who is a member and learn a bit about each one.. of the current crop, i find anthony morris iii to be the most grating and irritating to listen to.
who do you find the most annoying?
Ha ha,
When you return and see the gb issuing decrees that seem
unreasonable from the human viewpoint we've always had
causing difficulties and you start looking around wondering
" When's 'Paul' going to go up to Brooklyn and sort these guy's out?"
( Or did he try and they booted him out?)

Its still there with the old last days and 1914 generation statements.
It hasn't been sanitised yet.
The insight online has revised the sodomite resurrection question

P.S Go onsite to publications, online library then research guide
under the publications tab and type in last days.

@ leaving.
No I don't believe you are off topic as, due to reason and scriptural references,
you have no choice but to ask as you have.
You have succinctly expressed my and no doubt other thinking
searchers' thoughts. The light seems to be getting fuzzier.
Is it the new energy saving globes or what ?????

Thank you all for ya comments.
I'm like "why include such a vague statement anyway?"
Ok ok it proves nu lite that. as Bobcat pointed out
everyone had already figured out.
Bobcat, thank you for the references I checked them found the language 'interesting also.

10 The bread that the apostles could see and would soon partake of meant Jesus’ body. Which body? At one time, God’s servants felt that because Jesus broke the bread but none of his own bones were broken, the bread meant “the body of the Christ,” the congrega- tion of anointed ones. (Eph. 4:12; Rom. 12:4, 5; 1 Cor. 10:16, 17; 12:27) In time, however, it was appreciated that both reason and Scripture indicate that the bread represents Jesus’ human body, which had been prepared for him. Jesus “suffered in the flesh,” even being im- paled. Thus, at the Lord’s Evening Meal, the bread represents that physical body in which Jesus “bore our sins.”—1 Pet. 2: 21-24; 4:1; John 19:33-36; Heb. 10:5-7.
