Can someone be “in good standing”, but not an “exemplary” publisher or vice versa?
There are those publishers who are “not” in good standing (marked, reproved, etc). There are the majority of publishers who are in good standing and doing God’s will. Then there are those who are “exemplary” in faith and conduct. To be exemplary, the publisher’s life and ministry must be worthy of being an example for others to imitate or follow.
Any special service, Audio or Video, Watchtower Reader, Zoom Host and so on need to be exemplary (not just a good reader or a fine electrician or computer tech).
Something like unilaterally cancelling an engagement may cause one to be “un-exemplary”. It is an entire life of a Christian that is considered.
