*** w98 3/15 p. 19 Living Up to Christian Dedication in Freedom ***In order to avoid misunderstandings, Jehovah?s Witnesses try to be careful about how they express themselves. Instead of saying, "the Society teaches," many Witnesses prefer to use such expressions as, "the Bible says" or, "I understand the Bible to teach." In this way they emphasize the personal decision that each Witness has made in accepting Bible teachings and also avoid giving the false impression that Witnesses are somehow bound to the dictates of some religious sect.
The fact is they always say what does the publications say on this matter or what is the direction from the FDS.
Ya know the FDS, 144000 who direct all things...ok so it's actually just 8-10 out of the 144000 who direct things...how did they become spokeman for the 135,500...well it was a well fought race and the voting was close but but they left it in Jehovahs hands and when he didn't give a rats ass they consulted a spirit mediums named Rutherford and Franz...Aye carumba
