other methods too, personal phone calls, mailouts to at that time some 95 branches of the Watchtower Society, in different languages, French, Spanish, and of course English. (This move particularly served to frighten the Watchtower Society, that is the international aspect of our work. -- See Revelation 9:4-6, 9.) Indeed, we began to mail Brooklyn Bethel special small post card size messages to many Bethelites we knew, inside contacts, secretly, since at that time, there were even "Bethelites" as members of the Y.O.R.W.W. Congregation (called TWMC Information Center at that time…We changed the name in 2001). Yes, we advertised right in New York City, in a local paper, in Brooklyn Heights, that we knew certain Bethelites read frequently on the weekends and so on, and on...So you see, we really have been busy over the years, spreading the message.
Therefore, you can see, that over the many years, yes we have indeed, talked to many, many brothers, be it thru mail, telephone conversations and various computer email systems and so on...with many of the same questions being asked. Therefore, you will notice that these same "FAQ" or "Frequently Asked Questions" is truly reflected in our written material that we possess. We made a concerted effort to address many of the type of questions the brothers were asking all across the country and elsewhere, to better serve the brothers spiritual needs. Remember, our main focus has always been, our spiritual brothers, the ones who are trapped, within the Watchtower Society, in imitation of Jesus' ministry. -- Matthew 10:6; 15:24
Therefore to "wake up" the brotherhood of Jehovah Witnesses, 7 million strong, we realized then, would be like waking up a sleeping giant...sooo many people, ...sooo many questions. In fact, we begin to learn from Jehovah God, that bible prophecy actually indicated that this was going to happen anyway, on a very grand scale, even with Jehovah's Witnesses and people of the world too. Questions...questions and more questions about Jehovah's Hidden Purposes. Because at Isaiah 11:10 it states:
"And it must occur in that day that there will be the root of Jesse [Modern Day "Servant" or "Chieftain"] that will be standing up as a signal for the peoples. To him even the nations will TURN INQUIRINGLY, and his resting-place must become glorious."
Our growth, yes we sincerely believe, is actually predicted within the pages of the Holy Scriptures itself...in bible prophecy. Therefore we believe that this fulfillment of prophecy is something that you will see, with your own eyes...the fulfillment of people from all over the world, asking some of the same questions that you are asking right now. In fact, Ezekiel 17:22-24 shows the growth to be this way:
"This what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: I myself will also take and put some of the lofty treetop of the cedar [JW Organizational "Tree"] from the top of the twigs I shall pluck off a tender one [MDS; Chieftain] and I will myself transplant it upon a high and lofty mountain. On the mountain of the height of Israel I shall transplant it, and it will certainly bear boughs and produce fruit and become a majestic cedar [to replace current JW Organizational Tree]. And under it there will actually reside all the birds of every wing; in the shadow of its foliage they will reside. And all the trees of the field [other religious institutions of this world] will have to know that I myself, Jehovah, have abased the high tree [Watchtower Society], have put on high the low tree [Y.O.R.W.W. Congregation] have dried up the still-moist tree [Watchtower Society] and made the dry tree [Y.O.R.W.W. Congregation] blossom. I myself, Jehovah, have spoken and have done it." -- Ezekiel 17:22-24
We have complete confidence in God's Word, that such will become a reality in the very near future. Oh yes, we know today, we are still a "low, dry tree," and we continue to exist in that state. But very soon, all of that will change, and all to the praise of Jehovah God Himself. Yes, Jehovah will "exalt" his "low, dry tree", and appropriately "dry up" that wicked "still-moist tree," while they are in their prime even, so bible prophecy indicates. And we believe it!
Even today, to be sure, we view ourselves as a spiritual "priesthood" that carries out Jehovah God's most important spiritual "work." However, as you know, when the above prophecy becomes a reality, why yes, a very massive "priesthood" will have to be set up, to handle such a load of questions, from the world at large. (Isaiah 11:10) This is why we stress that the foretold "Male Child" is to be born first, to assist us in this great global work of teaching and preaching the "Divine Truth" to all mankind, as MT. ZION, where "law goes forth." (Isaiah 2:2-4) Yes, when the people realize that Almighty God has set up a spiritual "kingdom", just for that very purpose...right here on the earth, to answer these very questions that they have, people of all walks of life and all religions even, will flock to such a place, "stream to the mountain of Jehovah," as it were, to these qualified spiritual advisors or "priests" where finally Jehovah's True "Law goes forth" ...from Zion, God's Name People, just as it should. (Micah 4:1-4) So, when the people realize this, they will "stream" yes, flock by the millions to such a "spiritual" Paradise, such a spiritual "Mountain of Decoration" [and not a lowly "land of decoration" as Watchtower Society is today.], the place where God's Law goes forth, unperverted, uncorrupted, as pure, clean waters from God's Own Mouth. -- Micah 5:4; Daniel 2:44, 45; Daniel 11:40, 45
Therefore, this government will be set up, right at the time of the birth of the "Male Child", which we see is imminently before us now, as we speak. Quite exciting, is it not, when we think of such things, right before us, shortly to happen! -- Revelation 12:5, 10
But, remember, after the birth of the "Male Child", Satan will be very angry (because he couldn't swallow up the child when born from the "woman") and the bible says,
"...woe to the earth and the sea...because the Devil has come down to you with great anger, knowing his time is short."
Therefore right after that birth, there will be the greatest war, famine, pestilence, earthquakes, the world has ever, ever seen. Satan will be livid with anger...wishing to cause great, great destruction. It will be a time of such turmoil, that we must, yes, must expect! But it will be the undeniable proof, yes real proof, that the whole world of 6 billion people, and all of its pressing issues actually, PIVOTS and DEPENDS UPON what is happening or going on with God's Name People...Jehovah's Witnesses. Yes, Jehovah's Witnesses, those pitiful 7 million that the world totally ignores as being nothing...yes everything actually depends on how Jehovah God will deal with them, with Satan reacting to God magnificent act, to save the "Male Child" as certain "first-fruits" to Him from the filthy Watchtower Society Organization.
So, then if the "Male Child" gets born, as we know it will, well ... then Satan goes on a rampage against the entire inhabited earth. We must expect this. But remember, even though there will much sadness in the world with so many dying, still, this will finally prove something, we've been trying to say for many, many years, yes namely that Jehovah's Witnesses are really, God's Name People, destined to "rule the world," and establish God's Kingdom upon earth, as it is in heaven, as Jesus said. (Matthew 6:10) Jehovah's Witnesses, certain ones, the brave ones, will form this government for God! Praise Jah!
As mentioned above, Volume I of The "Report" book, has been in existence for over a decade now. However, at present Volumes II and III of "The Report" as of the writing of this letter, are still "works in progress" with changes and up-to-date corrections being made still. It is our sincere hope that both books will be ready hopefully before the end of the year of 2012. Of course at any rate, we will advise when these books are ready.
In the past and even now at present, using our own financial resources, we did sponsor FREE LITERATURE covering many various topics to Jehovah's witnesses themselves and the general public also. We were able to accomplish this by putting our faith in Jehovah to provide, as well as thinking of how we could help our spiritual "brothers" in the faith, putting them on our special "TWMC Mailing List." This way, the spiritual "food" was made available to God's Name People if they wanted to have it, but also it was made available for any and all who wished to read more about our work, those from the world, who were somewhat curious of our work, and just wanted learn more about our beliefs, the tenants that we subscribe to in our unique mission. Yes, even though financial funds proved to be sometimes quite limited, still, we endeavored to do this, especially to God's Name People, but even to all, to yes, offer "life's waters free," just as the prophecy says at Revelation 22:17. To date, this we have continued for over 30 years, since the Spring of 1991 when we started as a group.
Although its been over 30 years, still we wait patiently realizing this special "food" provision of Jehovah, acts as "manna" from heaven, yes, given by God's Own Hand, and thus becomes THE SOLE SPIRITUAL PROVISION Jehovah God has provided for His Name People to STAY UNITED in thought and purpose, as 1 Corinthians 1:10 shows we should. So we accepted this special "humble" provision from God, as the means how one can continue to be spiritually fed in the "wilderness," during such difficult times as these we live in...knowing one day, it would be a Glorious Worldwide Provision of Living Waters, able to feed the entire earth. Praise Jah! -- Deuteronomy 8:3; Isaiah 40:3; Ezekiel 47:1-12; Daniel 12:4
Even today, we hope to be able to continue to offer FREE LITERATURE to ALL the people of the world (though not necessarily the book itself), so that anyone can get the message...thru leaflet or printed flyers and so on. This is why a lot of it is posted on the internet...a sufficient amount to get a person thinking. But, remember, we don't tell it all (just as Jesus didn't)...because some it is still...a "sacred secret" that must be held in complete confidence, by the "Chieftain" of the Temple, who "eats bread" in the very Presence of God. -- Ezekiel 44:1-3; Amos 3:7; John 16:12; Revelation 5:1-5.
Therefore, as indicated at Ezekiel 47:1-12, we indeed, do view ourselves, under Jehovah God's direction, as a Priesthood...a spiritual priesthood and temple for the nation of Spiritual "Israel," Jehovah's Witnesses. And as one might expect, we are thus, completely sustained by monies contributed for the specific purpose of sustaining the work of the "Temple" where these "living waters" flow freely, as shown at Revelation 22:17.
