If the Governing Body were concerned about preparing JWs they would inform them that the hour of test lies ahead...the great tribulation that Jesus said would come upon the entire world..
To demonstrate, ask one of Jehovah's Witnesses about the significance of the 666 mark of the beast...the mark of the beast, which symbolizes the irrevocable sentence of permanent death...
Absolutely!
Now putting that into context with the supporting Scriptures and reasoning upon it. WW3 needs to occur in order to be the pretext to install the 8th king. When the 8th king is given its
42-month authority, this period will be the HOT, the time in which the MOTB is given. Because as stated JW's are not prepared for this test that lies ahead, many will end up taking the mark just as they did the vax. Those (JW's) that do take the mark will get the sentence of permanent death. Those (JW's) that
do not take the mark (no thanks to the GB) will be the ones undergoing
tribulation under the 8th king but then ultimately, they will be part of the
GC. But this
HOT does not just come upon JW's, it comes upon all people, the entire inhabited earth. It only comes upon JW's because they are among those of the entire inhabited
earth/world. The outcomes are the same for all, take the mark and get the sentence of permanent death.
Refuse the mark and be part of the
GC. Also, from among those
that refuse the mark will also be those chosen to rule with Jesus. Bottom line is that many of the people in the inhabited earth/world will take the mark/support the beast/fail the HOT, this includes JW's. But at the same time there will be
many people in the inhabited earth/world that refuse the mark/pass the HOT. These will be who that make up the
GC. Among these people will be JW's, although a much smaller % of JW's will make up the total amount of the GC. (The total of the GC will be made up of different percents of people who presently identify/part of something other than JW's.) End result is the same for all, they are who
come out of the 42-month tribulation passing the HOT.

10 Because you kept the word about my endurance, I will also keep you from the
hour of test, which is to come upon
the entire inhabited earth, to put
to the test those dwelling on the earth.]
[
12 “The ten horns that you saw mean ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they do receive authority as kings for
one hour with the wild beast.
13 These have one thought, so they give their power and
authority to the wild beast.]
[
5 It was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and it was given
authority to act for 42 months.
7 It was permitted to wage war with the holy ones and conquer them, and it was given authority
over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.
10 If anyone is meant for captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone will kill with the sword, he must be killed with the sword. This is where it calls for endurance and faith on the part of the holy ones.
11 Then I saw another wild beast ascending out of the earth, and it had two horns like a lamb, but it began speaking like a dragon.
13 And it performs great signs, even making fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the sight of mankind.
14 It misleads those who dwell on the earth, because of the signs that it was permitted to perform in the sight of the wild beast, while it tells those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the wild beast that had the sword-stroke and yet revived.
15 And it was permitted to give breath to the image of the wild beast, so that the image of the wild beast should both speak and cause to be killed all those who refuse to worship the image of the wild beast.
16 It puts under compulsion all people—the small and the great, the rich and the poor, the free and the slaves—that these should be
marked on their right hand or on their forehead, 17 and that nobody can buy or sell except a person having the mark, the name of the wild beast or the number of its name.]
[
9 Another angel, a third, followed them, saying in a loud voice:
“If anyone worships the wild beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he will also drink of the wine of the anger of God that is poured out undiluted into the cup of His wrath, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the sight of the holy angels and in the sight of the Lamb.
12 Here is where
it calls for endurance on the part of the holy ones, those who keep the commandments of God and hold fast to the faith of Jesus.”]
[
2 And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and
those who are victorious over the wild beast and its image and the number of its name were standing by the sea of glass, holding harps of God.]
[
9 After this I saw, and look!
a great crowd, which no man was able to number,
out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands.
10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”
13 In response one of the elders said to me: “These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they and where did they come from?”
14 So right away I said to him: “My lord, you are the one who knows.” And he said to me:
“These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 That is why they are before the throne of God, and they are rendering him sacred service day and night in his temple; and
the One seated on the throne will spread his tent over them.]
[
4 And I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given authority to judge. Yes, I saw the souls of those executed for the witness they gave about Jesus and for speaking about God, and those who had not worshipped the wild beast or its image and
had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand. And
they came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for 1,000 years. 6 Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and they will rule as kings with him for the 1,000 years.]
[
11 I saw heaven opened, and look! a white horse. And the one seated on it is called Faithful and True, and he judges and carries on war in righteousness.
14 Also, the armies in heaven were following him on white horses, and they were clothed in white, clean, fine linen.
15 And out of his mouth protrudes a sharp, long sword with which to strike the nations, and he will shepherd them with a rod of iron. Moreover, he treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.
19 And I saw the wild beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the one seated on the horse and against his army.
20 And
the wild beast was caught, and along with it the false prophet that performed in front of it the signs with which he misled those who received the mark of the wild beast and those who worship its image. While still alive, they both were hurled into the fiery lake that burns with sulfur. 21 But the rest were killed off with the long sword that proceeded out of the mouth of the one seated on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh.]
