it always amazes me that if you make a statment like this to the rank & file JW they will without fail, emphatically deny this is the case.
Yet it is 100% fact!!!
QUOTE "It is vital that we appreciate this fact and respond to the directions of the "slave" as we would to the voice of God, because it is His provision." Watchtower 1957 Jun 15 p.370
QUOTE "The point is that Christians have implicit trust in their heavenly Father; they do not question what he tells them through his written Word and organization." Watchtower 1974 Jul 15 p.441 **** and how do we learn what God tells us in his written word?
QUOTE Only this organization functions for Jehovah's purpose and to his praise. To it alone God's Sacred Word, the Bible, is not a sealed book. Many persons of the world are very intelligent, capable of understanding complex matters. They can read the Holy Scriptures, but they cannot understand their deep meaning."" Watchtower 1973 Jul 1 p.402
I LOVE IT!!
so when the org says "we do not question" what we learn from the bible and from the F&DS, when you read the above quote you see that we are not cabapable of learning from gods word without the F&DS telling us what it means.
THEREFORE - the WTS is ACTAULLY saying in the Watchtower 1974 Jul 15 p.441 quote above is....
- we do not question what we learn from the F&DS and the F&DS. We listen to them without question as if their writings are the voice of god.
INCREDULOUS!!!
