Date TS Pubs Purge #2 received: __/__/ 96
Dear TRF Supporter Family members,
God bless you! We love you and are so thankful for you and all that you're doing for the Lord and His sheep! We are also thankful for how the Lord has kept not only the DO Family, but you, our precious co-laborers, through times of persecution over the past few years. We pray that the Lord has blessed you and continues to bless you as you work with us all in witnessing and winning the lost in these Last Days.
We appreciate those of you who labored diligently a few years back, fulfilling the difficult task of purging your libraries during the Pubs Purge #1. With this Notice, we are initiating phase two-the Pubs Purge #2~which deals primarily with the ML Volumes and Daily Breads. The process has been greatly simplified and is not nearly as difficult or time-consuming as Pubs Purge #1. We do ask, however, that you faithfully do your part for the whole Family by complying with this second Pubs Purge--as the DO Family has also done. We are sorry to have to bother you with this admittedly unpleasant, yet necessary task, but we know that you will reap the benefits of being able to more freely access the wonderful Words the Lord has entrusted us with.
We ask that you thoroughly read this Notice and then proceed to purge your pubs according to the Checklist/Receipt's instructions. This Pubs Purge #2 Notice, and the completed Checklist/Receipt are to be returned with your next TRF, and the cut pages from your pubs are to be burned after you've completed the Checklist/Receipt's instructions. As is the case with the DO Homes, this will be a prerequisite for receiving further mailings.
We want to specifically ask that you diligently make sure that this is done in full. We also request that you please promise before the Lord that none of this Pubs Purge material is photocopied or reproduced in any way. Please keep all such materials securely locked-up when not in use.
Before initiating this Pubs Purge, we request that you personally take a thorough inventory of the total number of Daily Bread Volumes (1-3.7), ML Volumes (3, 6-8, 12-14, 16, 17), GN Books (4, 8, 9, 11, 14,16/17-19), Good Thots Vol. 2's, Activity Book 3's, BTHs and Book of Remembrance Vol.I's in your Home, using the Pubs Purge #2 Checklist. Depending on the pubs that you have available in your Home, there are potentially a total of 25 books and mags to purge.
The Checklist/Receipt has blanks provided for you to list how many copies of each of the different pubs are in your Home's possession. We realize that many of you may not have copies of all of these pubs. In such a case, please specify at the appropriate blank that you have "0" copies.
It is up to you to prayerfully decide the best way in which to implement this Pubs Purge in your Home, but we must remind you to not photocopy the Pubs Purge #2 Notice or Checklist/Receipt When your Home's Pubs Purge is completed, please confirm that the filled-out Checklist/Receipt has all of the appropriate boxes [ ] checked, after which you can sign. Next, please return this Pubs Purge Notice and filled-out Checklist/Receipt via mail with your next TRF.
We are truly grateful for all of your help and faithfulness in this matter, and trust that our Homes will be less vulnerable to the Enemy's attacks once this purge has been completed. We realize that it's a lot of work to out this into effect but we believe the results will be well worth it! Thanks so much for your help in bringing this to pass! GBY! WLY!
Love and prayers,
Your WS Family

Other details and reminders:
It's up to you to decide exactly what will be the best means and method for your particular Home to tackle this project, and ensure that your Home's Pubs Purge is done quickly and properly. It is of utmost importance that you fully comply with the instructions and guidelines set forth in this Pubs Purge #2 Notice.
On the Checklist/Receipt, a blank space is provided after each publication's title for you to fill in the total number of copies of that specific pub that you have to purge. A box ( ] is provided next to each individual item, for you to check when all of your Home's copies of that particular pub or book have had the specified pages either removed or touched up. We suggest you purge ALL of your Home's copies of each specific pub at the same time. (For example, remove pages from and do "touch-ups" on all of your copies of ML Vol. 16 at the same time, before proceeding to do the "purging" on ML Vol.17.)
Thank the Lord, no Volumes are to be entirely destroyed in this present Pubs Purge #2. All of these pubs either need to have pages "cut" where the pages are removed and destroyed, or "blacked out & then whited out," using first an indelible black marker (or black pigment ink, etc.) to cover the specific words, followed by "whiting out" with white correction fluid the areas just blackened. The black marker will most likely soak through the page-but please be consoled that this is less severe than having to cut out the whole page. You can use a piece of cardboard under the page being blacked out to keep the ink from soaking through to the following pages.
When cutting pages out of the various books, we recommend that you use an "x-acto" knife type of cutting instrument in order to make the cuts as precise as possible. Please be careful not to press down too hard when cutting, lest you cut too deep and remove pages that should be left intact! We've found that slipping a thin piece of cardboard under the page that you're cutting out will protect the pages beneath it.
Please note that although we have tried to avoid pages being removed that have either the beginning or ending of another Letter on the back side of the page, in some cases this was unavoidable. We are sorry that some MLs will be rendered incomplete. However, we think you'll agree that this is a small sacrifice to pay in order for our ML Volumes and DBs, etc. to be more freely accessible and used in our Homes.
The few pages that need to be gotten rid of entirely should be burned as soon as possible. Please don't merely throw them away, lest someone remove them from your Home's trash can! You should not send in the cut pages to your Reporting Office (as was done for Pubs Purge #1).
We are sorry to have to burden you with such an unpleasant task as cutting pages out of our own books, but as "evil men and seducers wax worse and worse"-particularly our anti-Christ enemies--we feel that it's definitely worth the time, trouble and sacrifice to "purge" these publications in order to do all that we can to protect ourselves and our precious little ones! Your help and cooperation in "securityizing" these publications is not only very appreciated, but is also very much needed, and in fact required, for the sake of your own children and their and your protection, as well as our Family's everywhere! So please do it now! Thanks so much!
Depending on how and where you conduct your pubs purging, it may be necessary for you to give your children, JETTs, and teens an explanation of why we are having to purge our pubs and remove and "touch up" pages (depending, of course, on the children's age. maturity, knowledge of the pubs, etc) If they see you crumpling and burning or touching up and removing pages from the books listed in the Checklist/Receipt they will no doubt have some questions that will need answering.
"I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself, but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean! But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, let not then your good be evil spoken of! Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace. For meat destroy not the Work of God! All things indeed are pure but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor anything whereby thy brother stumbleth or is offended or is made weak. [In other words, if some of our meat is choking them, and causing them to choke us, we're willing to let it go!] Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth" (Rom 14.14-22)
"But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblinqblock to them that are weak. [The System is really weak!] Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled! Walk in wisdom toward them that are without" (1Cor.8:9; Tit.1:15; Col.4:5).
