I'd be very careful accepting non-WT&TS publications concerning what they believe. In my experience many provide dis-information or out of date information. What the WT&TS taught in the days of Rutherford may not be valid since the time of Knor, and likewise Knor to Franz and so on. In my experience the essential teaching didn't change but it was refined.

The WT&TS has always held open some doctrines saying the faithful and discreet slave are just men and subject to the fralities of men but in Jehovah's good time the light is made brighter (same excuse the Church uses for changes in position on some things).

The publications I quoted from are 20 years old, but as far as I am aware what they say remains valid in WT&TS circles.

Several years ago I had a chap that would call on me after he had finished witnessing door to door. We'd have a coffee and he'd tell me the latest gossip in the congregations and Bethel. Even witnesses need a break!

Back when, my best friend, an elder in the congregation confided in me that newbies should be locked up, they do more damage than good. Its the zealous newbies that tend to be irritating. The more mature are much more subtle ;-)
