  Also even though the brochure is from 2012, it seems to already be in line with the then-future new light in its ambiguous description of who the slave is.

  That brochure was realeased in 2012. The new light on the faithful and discreet slave was first made public at the annual general meeting in October of 2012. It is very possible that the governing body had come to the new understanding months before revealing it at the AGM, and therefore possible that the brochure was deliberately written in a vague way as to not contradict the new understanding that was about to be revealed.

  No, it's the same. When they released it the 2012 DC, they already knew that they were going to blind the sheeple with nu-light. Who knows how long it was written before it was printed. Hey, the GB admitted that they "shelve" ideas. They LOVE this "idea" too!!

  Edit: Island Man, I just saw your comment!

  If there were no members of the "Slave Class" throughout history, who then were the spirit-led people who decided which books would be used as their sacred Scripture (NT)?

  Yeah Doug I was thinking that too.

  There are tons of holes in their latest "light". They just skip centuries, like it's no big deal.

  I think it was too tempting for them to write off Russell and that chapter of craziness from the FDS history. I'm sure they secretly salivated over elevating themselves above the apostles too.

  Gotta love the "humility" of all the anointed getting the same reward in heaven. Just sit down and shut up for now though partakers. God said so. LOL

  Hi,

  If the world continues, they are going to have to change it again. To tell you the truth, lol the Truth, had to say that....Most witnesses don't even care. This is God's mouthpiece & that's all that matters. I'm so silly...I should know they could pull the curtain back & there would be 8 ole men drinking coca cola & eating breakfast bars telling folks how to live...Oh yeah, the men behind the curtain have 8 dancing ladies...got to keep them ole men perky, ya know..

  Also on this site someone had to help his GF with a talk last night...the one about being in the true religion re: Jesus, can't rightly remember...I made a copy of it & called one of the sisters & said, just for practice I did the talk & I read it to her...crickets & UMMMMM....I think witnesses miss the point about Jesus...& while we are in the Hebrew scriptures it makes them uneasy....because they know what they read but they don't really recognize Jesus the way God intends..do they ?

  Same problem at our BS meeting.

  A sister answered that the FDS is all of the anointed. The BS Overseer (COBE) never corrected her and a brother in the audience had to explain the new light from the 2012 AGM/July 15, 2013 WT.

  That's exactly what happened at my meeting! I even know a brother named George. Hey . . . are you in "my" congregation?

  Same here... young person answered "governing body" and conductor said "yep, they're part of it". It's amazing that we keep more up-to-date here than in the congregations.
