Mad,
It may take a bigger hammer to get Fundi's to navigate through early theological concepts like Nestorianism, Monophysitism etc etc, they have a bigger problem with the (H) .....ssssh heresy, word than JWs.

Wouldn't it be just as fair to make up a perfect translation for JW's?
Matthew 24:45-47:
"Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics to give them food at the proper time? Truly I tell you: This slave will decide for himself when he has proven faithful and I shall appoint him over all my belongings, but I will do it so subtley that the slave won't realize it for more than a decade after it happens."
Acts 15:28-29:
"For the holy spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to YOU except these necessary things, to keep abstaining from eating the idol sacrifice as part of a pagan ritual, from taking blood into your bodies to sustain life, (Fractions as defined by the American Association of Blood Banks are okay) from things strangled and from fornication."

Kinda of like what the Bishops did........snip a little here, add a verse or two there....ahhh now it lines up with the Creeds.

theMadJW is caught between a rock and a hard place and cannot give a straight answer, just like the pharisees of old Matthew 21:25-27
