    Exactly Moshe.

    It's so clear to us who are out. But when you're in a cult, the details don't matter.

    Do "belongings" that are not domestics need to be fed? What in the household would the great crowd correspond to? Inanimate things? Oh!!!! The great crowd are..... pets????

    They could tie it into the Samaritan woman. The "belongings" don't need to be fed more than the crumbs that fall off the table from the "domestics" getting their food.

    In view of the following, it is interesting that apostates have been allowed to declare this before it was time.

    (Mark 3:11, 12) 11 Even the unclean spirits, whenever they would behold him, would prostrate themselves before him and cry out, saying: "You are the Son of God." 12 But many times he sternly charged them not to make him known.

    *** w94 4/1 p. 31 "Turn Down the False Stories" ***
    ... The Bible says that when unclean spirits cried out that Jesus was the Son of God, he "sternly charged them not to make him known." (Mark 3:12) Similarly, when a demon of divination impelled a girl to identify Paul and Silas as "slaves of the Most High God" and publishers of "the way of salvation," Paul cast the spirit out of her. (Acts 16:16-18) Neither Jesus, Paul, nor any of the Bible writers allowed the demons to testify about God's purpose or his chosen servants.

    Not Sheep?

    I've always thought it funny the way Xians romanticized the loving/caring relationship between a shepherd and his flock, as if not realizing that the shepherd is not raising them as his fluffy soft pets, but for their meat! You'd think being called a sheep would be a BIG HINT, but apparently not...

    The Governing Body are now very, very rich as the belongings include material possessions (such as kingdom halls).

    Funny really, the (F&DS)GB may think they are spiritually feeding the R&F but now the R&F can say they are physically feeding and providing for the (F&DS)GB but that wasn't in the parable.
