I feel like we’re going to get more information at the annual meeting 😂

 

It’s the watchtower with this image of the front cover.
 

Thanks Luigi I’ll have to study over that material again.

I must have missed some older publications.  I can’t remember “You May Survive Armageddon Into God’s New Solar System” or “You Can Live Forever In Paradise On Mars”, “Survival Into A New Universe”.  And the brochure “Enjoy Life On Pluto Forever”.  🤔

I guess they did not have their special receiver set for the Ephemeral, Sub-Space, Hyper-Light communication system (it was before MEPS).  How much I miss the 60s and 70s...

I think Rutherford's first name IS Judge

 

Was that a joke? I am pretty sure his name is Joseph Rutherford.

I couldn't agree with you more. Now, we can communicate from miles away in just minutes. 

Seconds even 😀

I never thought so. I thought he was a lawyer, and he became known as a judge because of his frequent appearances in a courtroom.

 

However, because of your post, I did some research. Here's what I found.

The 1975 yb is a good quote. Also 'The Proclaimers' book has the historical record as well. (jv p. 67)

 

Old (Downunder) Tone

I loved this talk and have been searching for the watchtower he referred to, I guess it's one that will come out soon.

[Cherie]

One of our brothers back in the day had the first name of Judge  however.

He was given that name when he was born because his father said he looks as sober as a judge! I recall reading somewhere that he secured the release of several brothers being detained by briskly walking in and announcing himself as Judge

(Along with his last name).  He didn't lie! 😃

The possible numbers are staggering.  We have 8 1/2 billion people on Earth that we (8 1/2 million JWs) try to speak to even once.  Then we might have 20 billion or more to have a regular bible Study and help physically care for them.  Almost unimaginable...❤️

That would be a minimum of 2,353 for each JW now living to teach and take care of

The Insight has good explanation of how that might be managed. Look at the very end of Resurrection in the Insight.

It will be orderly, progressive, probably sequential and done with love. We assume that a great many resurrected ones will take advantage of Jehovah’s mercy and join us. That would make one more preacher and teacher. The exponential growth of the new servants of God, allows for many more to be resurrected and taught.

Question.. will the marriage of the Lamb happen PRIOR to the commencement of the resurrection? I think so?

 

This is an event thats not talked about very often, however, some articles indicate this will be a time for great rejoicing for heaven & earth...  very exciting indeed!

The structure of this article seems to indicate that is the case. Also see par. 12, 14 of the same article.

 

*** w14 2/15 p. 12 par. 17 Rejoice Over the Marriage of the Lamb! ***
17 Read Psalm 45:16. “The virgin companions” of Christ’s heavenly bride will have further cause for rejoicing when they see the marriage become fruitful in the new world. The Bridegroom-King will turn his attention to the earth and will resurrect his earthly “forefathers,” who will become his earthly “sons.” (John 5:25-29; Heb. 11:35) From among these he will appoint “princes in all the earth.” Doubtless, Christ will appoint others from among faithful elders of today to take the lead in the new world.—Isa. 32:1.

What is sure however is that it truly will be an exciting event.

This talk really helped me change my attitude for the ministry. For awhile now, my enthusiasm for preaching has waned, with the thought of “I can’t wait until the preaching work is done” thought crossing my mind. Well, Bro. Lett’s talk changed all that! LOL I now have a better appreciation for the preaching work today and how I better get used to teaching the good news because it’s going to be high on my agenda for a long time to come.

If we are able to gain genuine joy in the preaching work now, despite all of the adverse circumstances, imagine the absolute delight this work will be for us in the New World!
