So the “faithful slave” was not Rutherford and a few others allegedly chosen by Jehovah, but was in reality, Charles Taze Russell. Rutherfraud had no idea in 1916 that he was about to be chosen as the FDS!
"Shall we continue to speak in our Class-studies of Brother Russell as the Lord's Servant who brought "meat in due season to the household of faith." Yes, indeed!
We
must make the distinction between Brother Russell as a creature
and his official capacity as "that servant" of the Master
to give out the "meat in due season." To disregard the
Message would mean to disregard the Lord."
w13 7/15 pp. 22-23 par. 12 “Who Really Is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? - When did Jesus appoint the faithful slave over his domestics? That question was answered after he and his Father came and inspected the temple, or spiritual arrangement for worship, from 1914 to the early part of 1919. In 1919, a time of spiritual revival, Jesus selected capable anointed brothers from among them to be the faithful and discreet slave and appointed them over his domestics.
