JWs always use this scripture to show that we should not put
our trust in man made rulership and governments:
Psalm 146:3,4 “Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a
son of man, who cannot bring salvation.
His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground. On that very day his
thoughts perish.”
However they never mention the part about not putting trust
in “a son of man”, which is what Charles Russell, Rutherford, Knorr and the now
present collective governing body are.
They even use the term “govern”. Below are the synonyms for the
word “govern”.
It seems to me that according to the words in their own
bible the concept of a governing body is unscriptural. Like one poster said earlier, there is no
true organization only true individuals. If Christians are all "brothers" they are all equal and therefore the is no place for a hierarchial structure of "heavies" like the JWs have.
