Do you think eventually they may do away with paper?   ... or at least continue to reduce its usage?

The bible teach book got updated in September 2013. Not sure of what's been updated inside but the outside back cover now tells people to ask for a bible study, has a JW.ORG logo and a QR response on the back of it.

Already knew about the " Jehovah"s will " brochure...

 

I will download the Book " God"s Love" to see those updates...

 

Thank, by the way..

I am hoping they'll update the Bible Teach book like they did the God's Love book. Update the quotations for the revised NWT and put definite read scriptures in the chapters.

Jehovah's Will brochure has been updated  - now May 2014 printing, seems to be updated every month.

Also the 2014 yearbook (March 2014 printing, changed from October 2013)

Maybe someone could compare the two to see the differences.

[Jeanie]

Thanks for the updated list!

Jehovah's Will brochure lesson 22 was updated in May 2014 printing to remove reference to the branch appointing MS and Elders.

 

Lesson 17 regarding CO's hasn't been updated yet to say that they appoint them. Maybe they will update that in September.

[azram]

Page 90 in the 2014 year book was updated in the March 2014 printing. The October 2013 printing said "1924" at the bottom. The March 2014 printing says "1930". Additionally the date on the QR code was updated with the March 2014 printing and page 2 was updated to reflect March 2014 printing.

[AH173]

Keep yourself in God's love book - June 2014 revision.

Don't know if anyone notice or has this been posted, already??? But the jw library app has been updated. It look like it was done on my devices on July 7. Under publications it now list the BE book, draw close to Jehovah, 2014 yearbook, the latest tracks, and few other publications. And the globe (translation) list different translation of the bible (i don't remember if this was always there but anyway) --i'm lovin' it! I like the fact that I now have the BE book on my devices, I can review this at work when needed.

That's a very interesting question you have there Tim. Let's examine this further. What is paper? Paper is trees and how do you get paper from trees? It's a very intricate set of steps that also requires water and someone who knows how to make paper (from what I hear). Given that paper is actually trees and we also need great amounts of water to produce paper from trees and our earth is running out of both and Jehovah cares about the earth and he in turn let's his faithful servants on earth know about how much he cares - I would have to say the answer to your question is probably "yes" - but I'm not sure. (Was I facesious enought? Wasn't quite sure) hehe.

Jehovah's Will brochure lesson 28 was updated in June 2014 printing to remove reference to interest free (loans) for KH construction. Now it states "money is made available to congregations needing to build or remodel a KH." QR code date was also updated to 7/14/14.

[azram]

“Learn From the Great Teacher” was updated June 2014. Chapter 46 paragraph 1 used to say:

 

“Do you think God will ever destroy our beautiful earth and our lovely heavens and it’s shining stars?”

 

It was updated to say:

“Do you think God would ever let people destroy our beautiful earth?”

This one is not really an updated publication, but the 2010 yearbook is now available in PDF, previously only mp3 audio recording was available.

We've now got the updated draw close to jehovah books in hard copy!

[shali]

Wonder if the Branch will ever update the Revelation book again?  Things are happening so fast and furious that will change much of that book.  I couldn't believe the amount of changes we had last time we studied it and I think that's about 10 years ago now!  If we are that far into the last days as the FDS has said repeatedly, we probably won't have to go through it again - we'll be living it!

 Brigette. the Revelation book need to be updated

[James the Less]

The tract "Youths - What Will You Do With Your Life?" has also been updated recently. The original tract contained information about the Ministerial Training School. When we considered it at the Service Meeting last year, it was updated on the website to include information on the Bible School for Christian Couples. It has since been updated again to include information on the School for Kingdom Evangelizers.

I won't be surprised if we get more 'electronic version only' publications as time goes on.
