I wonder how many people he has convinced to "put faith in God' s Victorious Organization" instead of Jesus himself?
Parasites, just like the Pharisees.

Two more on the GB? It seems like an increasing softening into a "corporate" image for the GB, and moving away from the eccentric, overtly "religious" types that they've appointed in the past.
And of course, the choice of younger and younger men is part of that break with the past - in every sense.
At this rate, with AMIII ousted, when the likes of Lett and Herd pass away, the GB will almost seem normal. Almost!
Presumably, that's the ploy to try and make the JW org leadership seem more "normal". Trouble is, there are plenty of other pseudo-religious organisations with seemingly normal looking men in their 40s, 50s or 60s in suits running them, and they're just as odd and not trusted by the public because of what they say and do, so if this is an attempt at a "modern" image makeover, it will fail.

Strikes me odd they keep adding GB members-declaring them to be the faithful slave. It's like God doesn't know how many he needed to begin with, so he adds and takes away. If you think about it, it makes no sense at all....but the r/f aren't going to think!

As a member of Gen X, when I was a teenager, the thought of one of my peers becoming one of the 144000 anointed was ludicrous and laughable.
In fact I'm sure, anyone of that age at that time would have been counselled if they let it be known they had those thoughts. They would have been viewed by the congregation as mentally ill.

George, I also thought for sure that Mr. Gillies would be up to the task.

There is no need for negativity as in mentioning 1975 or the organization vs Jesus.
However they are not anointed.
Just because someone is working in the service department at Bethel does not place one in line to be anointed.
That is just something that is said of the governing body, because it is tradition. -

"Here we are nearly 50 YEARS past the invisible Armageddon of 1975 and the clown show continues unabated."
It's coming up to the 50th anniversary. I hope that those who lived through that will celebrate appropriately and broadcast it anywhere it can get in the WT's face. Some sort of slogan would be a good idea. Something like: "50 years alive since '75!"

The number of members of the GB is growing at a similar rate to the number of partakers. 🙄

The number of members of the GB is growing at a similar rate to the number of partakers. .....maybe it is the PIMO who are partaking because they have come to know Jesus sacrifice was for the forgivenest of sins for the many and not just 144,000
