Maybe I read in the Proclaimers book that there was a time when they printed two magazines together in one issue. Thus reducing the normal schedule of magazines by 50%.  Probably WW1 or WW2.

This is the only quote I can find (at the moment).

 

*** w77 12/15 pp. 752-753 par. 19 Fighters Against God Losing the Battle ***
So, then, did Jehovah fail to provide the necessary funds for the continued publication of this magazine? The answer to this question is obvious from the fact that never, since July of 1879 till now, did this magazine, in spite of being banned at various times in various lands, suspend publication or miss even a single issue!

par 6:

 Let us remember that once the great tribulation begins, it will be too late for people to turn to Jehovah. That is why our preaching work is so urgent!

STUDY ARTICLE 41

 

⁵ The Bible does not indicate how long the destruction of Babylon the Great will take, but we do know that it will take place within a relatively brief time.

People need to hear the warning as God’s “storm” approaches!

No mistakes as to when the door is closed anymore for anyone to change their minds. It is urgent now as it is too late then.

Nice, more Insight into the possible way the attack will be carried out:

 

4. (a) What might the nations say to justify their attack on false religion?
(b) What will the former members of those religions likely do?

 

⁴ We do not know what reasons the nations might give to justify their attack on Babylon the Great. They might say that the world’s religions are an obstacle to peace and that they constantly meddle in politics. Or they might say that those religious organizations have accumulated too much wealth and property. (Rev. 18:3, 7) It seems reasonable that this attack will not mean that all the members of those religions will be destroyed. Rather, it seems that the nations will get rid of the religious organizations. Once those organizations are gone, the former members will realize that their religious leaders failed them and will likely try to distance themselves from those religions.

..so many interesting points in this WT....:

 

Because so much time has passed since 1914, we must now be living in the last of “the last days.” Since the end is so near, we need to know the answers to some important questions: What events will occur at the end of “the last days”? And what does Jehovah expect us to do while we wait for those events?

 

the announcement of “peace and security” that the Bible describes will be different. Why? When this happens, people may think that world leaders have succeeded in making the world a safer, more secure place. But in reality, “sudden destruction” will follow as the “great tribulation” unfolds.

 

there is very little time between now and the end of this system of things. For this reason, we cannot afford to keep studying the Bible with people who have no clear intention of becoming Christ’s disciples.

 

“The faithful and discreet slave” has been preparing us to stay faithful through the great tribulation. (Matt. 24:45) This has been done in many ways, but consider one example: our timely convention programs for the years 2016-2018

...motivate people to make the truth their own by applying what they learn, dedicating their life to Jehovah, and getting baptized. Only then will they survive Jehovah’s day.

That's pretty clear.

[J500]

During the great tribulation, a small group of Witnesses courageously meets in a forest to hold a congregation meeting.

 

No basements here, time to revise that Go bag I guess. This image description had me thinking about the elderly and infirm, we don't know how all this will play out in the moment and that we need to rely on Jehovah.

Are you worried that the GB will not let you know why they are preparing a WT publication with questions only?

Study article 40

19. According to Bible prophecy, the next major event that will soon take place on the world scene is the nations’ proclamation of “peace and security.” Thanks to what Jehovah has taught us, we know that the nations will not achieve real and lasting peace. What should we do before that event occurs and sudden destruction follows? Jehovah expects us to keep busy preaching the Kingdom message and trying to make more disciples. At the same time, we need to keep separate from all false religion. That includes withdrawing from any memberships and avoiding employment associated with Babylon the Great.

 

My words:i understand that the proclamation of peace and security is the next big event from the previous one which is the identity of the king of he north.this shows that there will not be any other king of the north on the world scene other than the one we have now.quite interesting
