If the governing body is only the FDS in a group, does that mean the ( REAL ) FDS only came about in the 70's when they started governing? ( as a group)
Before that it was a one man rule, not a group. If it needs to be a ruling group, well that wasn't untill the 70's....... Could this be
NU- NU- NU- light.....lol
Still like to have this question answered...........they say they are only the FDS when they meet in a group....they never met as a group to discuss things and make decisions untill the 70's so how could they be appointed in 1919 ? Their doctrine does not make sense, does it ?
Someone should point out the new light............... lol hahaha they are soooo mixed up..........
Doctrine does not really matter to those under mind control.
Right but some older ones on the GB must know this 1919 thing is just not true.
Say What ? " they are only the FDS when they meet in a group" ?
Is that like the priest saying he is only Jesus Christ when he hands
out wafers in communion ? Hello, people, the FDS doctrine is a bogus
made up, false, misuse of scripture, from a parable of THREE servants
who were given resources , symbolized, as "talents" and TWO used their
talents or resources and lived abundantly and usefully and one was FEARFUL
and hid his resources in the ground - Its about how EVERYBODY lives and
uses what they have available - Its not about a Power Structure - the problem
I have with this forum is how STUCK you men are on this worn out stupid
interpretation of a perfectly good parable, because you all think its about,
who "rules" you, who you are supposed to "obey" and who is on Top.
To Review: there is NO "Governing Body" mentioned in the Bible. God did
NOT "always have an organization" there was the Jewish Priesthood and
the Temple. That was destroyed in AD 70 and before that Priesthood it
was individuals, read Hebrews 11th chapter, individuals acting alone.
After Jesus it was individuals with a direct mediator to God, Jesus, no
in-between men or group of men needed - "over all his belongings"
means individual spiritual freedom and access, like what Jesus said?
Its a spiritual meaning to act in your life, and have empowerment
over all his belongings, which are spiritual, and life itself.
- THINK ABOUT IT
village girl : good thoughts but if the better half FDS
-- Female Deserving Servants --ran the show, would there not be a power structure,
fought over tooth & [polished] nail too?
1919 means NOTHING its a date in the Gregorian Calendar,
a calender invented by Pope Gregory in 1582. The calender
and that method of time measurement did not exist in Biblical
times - The WT is just taking up your time with silly calculations.
TODAY, June 2, 2014, Gregorian Calender, (Catholic time)
Biblical Jewish time and date: 4th of Sivan, year 5774, Jewish calender.
So you are arguing over dates that don't exist in Biblical time.
Their doctrine is flawed even going by their own doctrine lol lol lol
Yes, their new lite says they are only the FDS when they meet as a group...........does that include meeting for coffee and donuts ...lol
Prologos - Sigh very sexist polished nails reference
- Nobody is supposed to "running the show" The spiritual
state Jesus spoke of was " there is neither male nor female, you are all one
in the Christ" this transcends gender, place or time. Jesus said things like;
" I am in you, you are in me, we are one" Its about oneness in spirit, "one
hope, one faith" It was inclusive open to all mankind, the very opposite
of what the WT tells you, and you so willingly believe.
You are not "special" there is no "place to go" it is a spiritual awakening
, a spiritual connection that has nothing to do with organizations,
or assemblies, or magazines , or meetings or who is your leader,
"for one is your leader the Christ" 1Tim:2:15
One on one, between you and the only mediator, because
that is what Jesus said, himself. The question " to whom shall we go away to"
was about a PERSON not and organization. That person they refered to was,
Jesus Christ. And since this is supposed to be a bunch of Elders having
a discussion over fine Biblical points, how is it they only care about the "visible"
the "organization" the men at the top ? Who was the "visible organization"
from the death of Jesus up to, when Charles Taze Russell declared himself
to be the sole channel of communication ? You don't know ?
I thought all JW's say "there has always been an organization"
So who was it in 1434 ? or 1264 or 1565, or 1667, or 1776, or 1812 ?
Gregorian calendar ? The premise of the WT is to establish its own power
never the power of Christ or the message he preached.
