Who really is the Faithful and Discreet Slave?

if anyone were to come up to you claiming that they are the faithful and discreet slave, how would you go about proving them to be false, based upon scripture?.

Circular reasoning, superstition and historical revisionism are by no means any good reasons to be confident.

😂 my understanding of the subject has long exceeded that of your cult-addled mind (and Protestant commentators generally). Just go away.

‘scholar’:
The first reference is Zech 1:12 by means of an oracle on the 24th day,11th month in King Darius 2nd year- 519 BCE.
That passage includes an expression of frustration about a period that had not yet ended, and very obviously doesn’t refer to a period that ended decades earlier. You’re really not very good at this.

BruceX:
It bothers me that I believed this and never took a close look at it.
Don’t let it bother you too much. This is how the Watch Tower Society operates, and they’ve been honing their manipulation techniques for over a century. They tell you not to do research anywhere else, and they ignore discussion of verses that contradict their position. They also generate a false perception of ‘thorough’ Bible study by repeatedly going over their favoured verses. For example, see here.

😂 wrong again doofus, I have fully researched the entire subject entirely independently. I don’t need to ‘read widely’ to be right (and you ignore what they say anyway).

My statements are backed by facts and agreement from the entire body of experts in all relevant fields. You continue to spout drivel. The fact that you think you’re still right says everything it needs to. 😂

it was every jw taking part in the preaching work.

lol.. (matthew 24:45) “who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?.

No, you’ve made a false equivocation, based on misconstruing who they identified as the ‘domestics’.

"more than 200 lands"🤦‍♂️Why do they do this to themselves? 😂 This reminds me of the terribly awkward exchange in the Australian Royal Commission where Spinks(?) is asked to define a 'land'. They are actually recognised in 162 countries (and clearly they are not "recognized as law-abiding citizens" in other countries where their activities are illegal).

Fisherman:
Immaterial deflection.
Your skills at identifying what is and is not relevant and also of fallacies are remarkably deficient.
The subject matter here is 70 years in Babylon
Actually, the subject matter is the 'faithful and discreet slave', though the JW drivel about 607 is foundational to their interpretations about that subject.
which Zechariah confirms.
Wrong. Zechariah doesn't refer to 70 years of exile at all, nor to Babylon's 70 years. Zechariah (7:1-7) refers to annual fasts in the 5th and 7th months, which by the 9th month of Darius' 4th year (518 BCE) had been held for 70 years. This places the first year of those fasts in 587 BCE when Jerusalem was destroyed.
537+70= 607 —If you forgot the subject.
The Jews arrived in Jerusalem in 538 BCE rather than 537 so you're wrong there anyway, but that was only after Babylon was called to account in 539 BCE when the 70 years actually ended (Jeremiah 25:12). 539+70=609, which is the year that Babylon destroyed Assyria's final capital at Harran (compare Ezekiel 27:2, 23; Isaiah 23:13-15).
You can go now too.

Poor doofus. I know you’re too far gone to see beyond your indoctrination. I comment on your nonsense for the benefit of other readers or as it amuses me. As you’ve been sufficiently trounced, you can go now.
