Please, dear ones... let me (may you all have peace!):
IF you felt you were annointed why are you no longer witnesses?
I know very few who profess to be anointed, dear Debater, who have left the Witnesses. The REALITY is that, when you openly profess who you are, they, "offspring of vipers" that they are... do exactly what my Lord, the Holy One of Israel and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:17) SAID they would: they... expel us... from their synagogues. (John 16:2) They LYINGLY say every sort of thing about us (Matthew 5:11)... including that we are "apostates", which is term that indicates one has left GOD. Which is a LIE. We have, instead, turned TO God... by turning to CHRIST... which, to their deep chagrin... means we turn AWAY... from them. Which is what YOU should be doing...
Outside of the witnesses the partaking just becomes a general coverall where everyone and their aunty partake with no depth of teaching or self examination.
You are SO mistaken, dear one... because you have been SO misled. You quote 1 Corinthians 11:27-28, as to those who are "unworthy" to partake... yet, you have absolutely NO idea to whom Paul was referring... because those you FOLLOW have no idea. Let me ask YOU: WHOM, of those Paul addressed... were NOT "anointed" at that time? According to those YOU follow... the "other sheep" didn't come on the scene until 1935. So, WHO were these that Paul addressed?
I will tell you because I am SURE that you do not know: Paul was speaking to those who WERE ANOINTED... but did not:
(1) Properly examine themselves... by properly examining their HEARTS... BEFORE they partook. Rather than examins and then cleanse of defilement the inside of their "cups," they would come and eat, while having "something against" another. They would be full of jealousies, envies, adulteries, murders, hate, etc., yet would arrive and eat as if nothing was going on. As if they were "clean." But they weren't and so, in doing so, such ones ate and drank judgment AGAINST themselves... for with the SAME judgment that they were judging others in THEIR hears... they were agreeing to BE judged... by means of RATIFYING the covenant between them and God... as mediated by Christ, through his flesh and blood. AND...
(2) Rather than properly DISCERN the body of Christ when they gathered together TO eat, some would not eat prior to (in antipation of the MEAL they would have, because there was WAY MORE than just a glass of wine and a cracker on the table!) and so would arrive hungry and then just gobble down the bread as if it were "dinner"; others would have eaten prior to coming and so, because they now weren't "hungry" would overlook the meal altogether, including the part where the bread and wine were shared. They did not DISCERN it as the FLESH and BLOOD OF CHRIST, but merely some mundane "refreshments" on the table.
Thus, both of these groups put themselves in a position to eat and drink... "unworthily"... of the flesh and blood of Christ.
But let's not stop there, dear one. Another TRUTH that those you follow do not teach is that ALL who eat and drink even NOW... are "unworthy." That is because NO ONE is worthy. Which is why such a choosing is by means of an UNdeserved kindness - MERCY. There is NOTHING any one of us can do to earn... or be worthy... of such a gift. It is NOT a wage - it... is... a... GIFT.
Doesn't matter HOW many years one may have "served" as... well, a JW, a Catholic, a Baptist, what have you. NONE of those called served FIRST. ALL... served AFTER they were called. And virtually ALL who were called and chosen... were young... if not children... if not INFANTS... if not EMBRYOS... when they were chosen. Some weren't even born when they were chosen... and thus, anointed.
Thus, the WTBTS "excuse" that the increase in number of partakers within their membership... is due to REPLACEMENTS... is a LIE. First, because of what I explained above. But second, it doesn't even add up! If such ones were REPLACEMENTS... the number... WOULD STAY THE SAME... if not go DOWN. Because the one REPLACING... would take the "slot" of the one REPLACED (duh!). So, even if NONE died... the number would not change. Some WILL dies, however, so the number should go DOWN... if it goes anywhere. You have been duped, dear Debator... and will continue to be so... until YOU "quit touching the UNCLEAN thing." The WTBTS is a false christ ('anointed')... and false prophet.
Finally, you state that partaking outside of the Witnesses:
just becomes a general coverall where everyone and their aunty partake with no depth of teaching or self examination.
Again, you have been misled. Those who ARE anointed... do not need ANYONE to be teaching them ANYTHING... because it is by means OF that anointing that the Holy Spirit, CHRIST... teaches them... and leads them... into ALL truth. As John, who CERTAINLY was anointed and called "the beloved" of Christ, wrote:
"These things I write YOU about those who are trying to mislead YOU. And as for YOU , the anointing that YOU received from him remains in YOU, and YOU do not need anyone to be teaching YOU; but, as the anointing from him is teaching YOU about all things, and is true and is no lie, and just as it has taught YOU, remain in union with him."
How do such ones remain in union with Christ? As the very least, by doing what HE said:
"He that feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me, and I in union with him." John 6:56
So, please... cut it out. If you're just going to come here and regurgitate WTBTS rhetoric and propoganda, you will be opposed. Some will oppose with "debates" as to why the teachings of those you follow don't square up with secular reasoning. Some us, however, will oppose you with TRUTH, as we receive such FROM the Truth... the ONLY One who is the Truth and so should be CALLED the "Truth"... Christ. (John 14:6)
I bid you peace... and ears to hear when the Spirit and the Bride say to YOU:
"Come! Take 'life's water'... the blood and life force of the Most Holy One of Israel, JAH of Armies, which blood/life force is His holy spirit... which spirit is poured out from the innermost parts of His Son and Christ, the Holy One of Israel and Holy Spirit, my Lord, JAHESHUA MISCHAJAH... and which imparts everlasting life... free!"
That invitation is open... to ANYONE... dear Debator... who is thirsting and who wishes.
YOUR servant, as I am servant to ALL those of the Household of God, Israel, and those who go with... and a slave of Christ,
