Side issue of the 144k: Parable wheat and weeds. Per CO, wheat = 144k, weeds = imitation Christians. Where, then, by their own explanation do the 'great crowd' come in? That field only had the two, either the plant was wheat or a weed.

Titus,
That talk really shows how dumbed down the JWs are getting. Losch tell the brother not to believe anything bad about the governing body that they might hear on the television, or Internet and not to repeat anything they hear that is bad about the Governing body. The whole talk is about trusting the GB no mater what.
He's also got to be the most boring speaker I ever heard.

OKAY, I only asked if it is that talk we are talking about in this topic. I wasn't sure.

2 Tim 2:2 = Scriptural principle of 4 generations (First Paul passed on to Timothy then he to other men and they then passed on to other qualified men)
But wait! That's four generations, not one. He's just contradicted the April 'new light' on what the generation (singular) is.

This is the scripture that prompts this:
Mt. 28: 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway °, even unto the end of the world. Amen.When I was a kid, I was taught that by the late first century Christianity was totally corrupted, apostasy had set in, and that true worship wasn't revived until Russell. This of course is identical to what Mormons teach, only it was Joseph Smith who straightened everybody out.
Atheists teach the same doctrine, only they suggest that truth is unknowable since the bible is so convoluted in their mind. The WT has on rare occasion mentioned the Waldensians, Anabaptists, Albigenses etc., and others as possible F&DS.
Perhaps those articles could be shown to that CO along with this chart:

What a crock of shit. And as per usual, this CO didn't do his homework. If he claimed that the Anabaptists reject the doctrine of the Trinity, then how does he explain this from the Anabaptists website:
- We believe in the Apostolic Testimony that Jesus Christ was God in human flesh, the perfect God and the perfect man, who walked among us in Israel 2000 years ago.
- We believe in the Apostolic Teaching that there is only one God who is revealed as a triune Personal God, eternally manifested in three Holy Persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. All three Persons of God's Being have the same divine and eternal nature.
- We believe in the Apostolic Testimony that Jesus Christ is the unique son of God , being the second Holy Person of Godhead, who is eternal and share the same divine nature as the Father.

2 Tim 2:19 = Cannot be dogmatic as to who was and who was not anointed
Now this is truly mind-boggling since the topic at hand was how one generation of anointed fed the next generation. If a group was not "anointed" then how could they possibly have fed the next generation? Not only that, but since they also teach that the 144,000 basically had no members inbetween the end of the 1st century CE till the late 1800s, then how could the groups that he listed possibly be 'anointed'? I guess it's best not to think too much about questions like this, lest one's head explode.
2 Tim 1:13 = All had one thing in common – all searching for the pattern
The pattern of what? All Christian religions were "searching" and have been for the past 2,000 years. This is a totally useless statement to make.
Dan 12:4= Before time of the end knowledge would increase.......
Mat 13:43= These ones were “shining” because the pattern of healthful works had emerged
And if all of the groups he listed were in fact 'anointed', then by the time of Charles Russell, the freaking 'light' should have been shining like a nuclear blast with virtually no changes required. Instead, there is virtually nothing that Charless Russell taught that the Witnesses believe today. Not only that, but by the Society's own admission, during the time frame inbetween 1914 - 1918, they were so guilty of teaching incorrect doctrines, that Jehovah let them be 'cast off' for their unfaithfulness. How exactly is it that they were "chosen" above all other religions when they had so royally screwed up that not even Jehovah wanted them?
