Governing Body Update #8

[zoebarry]

Thanks so much letting us know! Going to watch now!

[jwhess]

I really liked Br. Losch quoting that 2012 Watchtower.  Like he says, the mix of clay and iron it makes much more political sense now.

Amazing how correct the prediction of the WT June 2012 was concerning the iron and the clay and how close election results

would weaken the governments of the Anglo_American world power.

 

This month's campaign heralding God's Kingdom to all government officials worldwide couldn't really be coming at a more opportune time

There was a bit of a mix up on his quote from 2012 

 

Not pa.16 but pa 9 - The common people undermine the ability of the Anglo-American World Power to act with ironlike strength. Also, opposing ideologies and close election results that do not end up in a clear majority have weakened the power base of even popular leaders, so that they have no clear mandate to implement their policies. Daniel foretold: “The kingdom will partly prove to be strong and will partly prove to be fragile.”—Dan. 2:42; 2 Tim. 3:1-3.

 

I like his additional references

Matthew 24:42-44 keep on the watch, we don’t know when. The pandemic has shown us how quick things can happen. We need to prove ourselves ready.

[Allabord4Jah]

What a Update!!!!! People better wake up from the Covid slumber and pay heed, cause right soon, their world will change in a blink of an eye.  God's Government will come like a thief in the night. Yes, keep on the watch. What timely words spoken at the right time.  

[New World Explorer]

I like the linking of participation in the Nov campaign to "proving ourselves ready" 

Very encouraging.

What's stopping us from preaching about God's Kingdom?

I think you got confused with page 16 and paragraph 9.

[bagwell1987]

Did I? Oh ok

Ya know, thinking about that I think where it was off for me was they just had the letter p instead of pg or pa.

Should we send a copy of the Watchtower to President Trump and President elect Joe Biden?

20 years ago, when we got the Daniel book, and already very accurate teaching about the iron and the clay... it has never been truer.

The direction was that the branch would handle these letters.

I was thinking the same thing Rosie. His quote from 2012 is so good, fitting. Wonder if any government folks will see it.

Lol... I was just joking my sister..... Generally I think we know not to preach outside out own territory or personal contacts but actually it's a good reminder. 

 

Thank you sister Carole

After the administrations no doubt will have been sent the magazines, knowing that it's going to be sent to governmental officials worldwide, wouldn't be surprised if a few aren't keeping an eye on JW.ORG at all
