    Excellent observation. The GB is anointed, so the comparison to Judas might not prove valid. I hadn't considered that! Thanks.

    I hate to see such an interesting thread go cold...

    By their fruits...
    Is the whole GB truly anointed?. Many are called, few are chosen.
    It would appear questionable that some of their decisions are Spirit-led

    You've got a good point. One's fruits identify one who claims to be anointed as authentic in their declaration. Also, even if the GB was "called" who on Earth really knows of they are ultimately the "chosen" ones? Finally, it seems if they were spirit-led then their decisions would reflect the "wisdom from above."
