I agree, but they don't.
The immediate (topical) consideration is whether we want to encourage them to
use something other than the NWT or KIT for their Biblical research or not. I
vote that we do. This would disqualify the proposed Statement, nice as it is.
Also: Christ has sheep in many folds, and (chapter and verse not on the tip of
my tongue) there is a passage implying that some people who have no idea of
the more technical espects of the gospel will let God work in their hearts
and be saved anyway; and finally consider the parable of the splinter in the
eye.
Cheers; Leon
