So the Governing Body alone is now the Faithful and Discreet Slave?

    Dear Gary Neal, the following from the article about the 2012 AGM appears on the official site JW.org :

    "The evidence points to the following conclusion: "The faithful and discreet slave" was appointed over Jesus' domestics in 1919. That slave is the small, composite group of anointed brothers serving at world headquarters during Christ's presence who are directly involved in preparing and dispensing spiritual food. When this group work together as the Governing Body, they act as "the faithful and discreet slave."

    Who Are the "Domestics"?

    Jesus said that "his domestics" would receive "food at the proper time." All genuine followers of Jesus are fed by "the faithful and discreet slave." Therefore, all of Christ's disciples-both individual anointed Christians and members of the "other sheep"-are "his domestics."

    "Yep apparently the governing body is now the the FDS. Since the governing body wasn't actually formed until 1971 they were appointed as the FDS in 1919, 52 years before they existed."

    Since everybody in the first century was anointed with Holy Spirit and "had no need of being taught" according to the Messiah, it was quite obvious there was no group providing spiritual food spread all over creation, and therefore the Messiah's querry must be seen as proof that it refered to all indiviuals, perchance elders in local congregations or those who would become elders, and was rhetorical as to who were true servants(slaves). In the mean time the jw cancer that profains the Sabbath and DIVINE NAMES courtesy of the RCC keeps growing.

    So this flow chart is also outdated there is no Faithful and discreet Slave class

    It also says whom Jesus HAS APPOINTED over his belongings
