How Can The Governing Body Be Considered The "Channel Of Communication" From Jehovah Without Being Inspired . . . How Is That Possible???

by AbaddonProvesIt in

video # 1,246: how can the governing body be considered the "channel of communication" from jehovah without being inspired .

the collapse of governing body member jeffrey winder's arguments: a critical look at a jehovah's witness excuse [by watchtower examination, winston gillum - montego bay, jamaica].

the governing body of jehovah's witnesses believe & teach millions upon millions of jehovah's witnesses world wide that they as a body, are not inspired or infallible.

@ HereIam60: your quote -

"Many Through the Hands of a Few" used Jesus' miraculous feeding of the large crowd listening to him as the basis for this change, in that only his apostles passed out the food to the crowd."

July 2013 Study Watchtower, par. 6 - "He was evidently preparing them for a key role after his death and return to heaven." TRUE!

par. 7. - "What would be the role of the apostles? As Pentecost 33 C.E. drew near, it was clear that the apostles would serve in an “office of oversight.” FALSE!

This was the apostles role & assigned commission - no one else's:

Matthew 24:14 - "..."this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end (of the Jewish system) will come."

Matthew 28:16,18,19 - "...the 11 disciples [apostles] went to Galilee to the mountain where Jesus had arranged for them to meet.

18 Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying.....

19 Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations....

Acts 1:2,6,8 - "...after he had given instructions through holy spirit to the apostles he had chosen.

6 - "So when they had assembled, they asked him: “Lord, are you restoring the kingdom to Israel at this time?”

8 - But you will receive power when the holy spirit comes upon you, and you [apostles] will be witnesses of me...to the most distant part of the earth.” (in fulfillment of Matthew 24:14)*

Acts 6:4 - "We (not you!) will devote ourselves to...the ministry of the word.”

* Romans 1:8 - "...because your faith is talked about throughout the whole world."

Colossians 1:23 - "...that good news that you heard and that was preached in all creation under heaven." 1 Timothy 3:16 - "...was preached about among nations, was believed upon in the world,..."

R & F Christians (disciples) were never given the apostles' commission to preach.

Time of the end - a TRINITY puzzler.

(matthew 24:36) “concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the son, but only the father.".

(jesus seems to have forgotten to include the holy spirit not knowing either).

(acts 1:7) "he said to them: “it does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the father has placed in his own jurisdiction.".

BoogerMan

According to several Scriptures, Jesus has a God. How can God have a God?

Micah 5:4; John 20:17; Romans 15:6; 2 Corinthians 1:3; 2 Corinthians 11:31; Ephesians 1:3; Hebrews 1:9; 1 Peter 1:3; Revelation 1:6; Revelation 3:2; Revelation 3:12.

The trinity black hole - where no light can escape.

@ Halcon - You said,

1) "Because the Trinity doctrine still has the Father and the Son as being two separate beings (sharing the same title of God),

&

2) "The title of God however is held also by the Son. Which is to say that God the Son is not all-knowing."

a) Are you & the Trinity doctrine saying the Father & the Son are now 2 separate individuals?

b) Are you & the Trinity doctrine saying that Jesus is not all-knowing?

@ SEABREEZE - You appear to being "economical" when quoting Scriptures.

You said, "One verse says says Jesus has ALL power in heaven and earth, and another verse says that the father is greater than he is. So which is it? It's both."

Matthew 28:18 - "Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."

That seems easy to understand: Someone delegated all power to Jesus. Who did that?

1 Cor. 15:27,28 clearly explains: "For he “has put everything under his feet.”[fn Psalm 8:6] Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ."

How can God give Himself all power & authority and put everything under His own feet when it's already there?

And 1 Cor. 15:28 - "When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all."

How can Jesus [God?] be co-equal if he is going to be in subjection?

The mystery of the trinity.

@ MEANMRMUSTARD -

This means that Jesus, while on Earth, possessed both divine attributes, like omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. Why? That seems like your definition.
Nope - not my definition. One of the definitions provided by the all-powerful Google. 😀

Another little mystery:

If Jesus is God Almighty, how can he be described as the "Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6)

Surely he'd be the king of peace?

@ Sea Breeze:

According to Christian belief, Jesus was fully God while on earth. The concept of Jesus being fully God and fully human at the same time is a core Christian belief, known as the Incarnation. This means that Jesus, while on Earth, possessed both divine attributes, like omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. This is a central tenet of the Trinity doctrine, which describes God as one being existing in three co-equal persons.

In other words, the trinity dogma accuses Jesus of lying/deceiving his followers in the quoted Scriptures.

Another "mystery" which needs explaining/dismissing.

@ Gorb - I've strongly suspected that the 2008 crash caused the org very serious financial losses via their hedge funds/stock market investments, resulting in near-fatal cash-flow problems.

Hence the property sales and unbelievable & punitive cost-cutting and money grabbing strategies invoked - to stave off Wall Street creditors.

Still believe this.
