I can’t speak to what most JWs think about their relationship with Jesus or exactly where they fit into the JW puzzle of mediatorship.
Probably a lot of them if asked would flat out state that Jesus is their mediator. They would be wrong in the sense that that is not what WT teaches them.
But many of them if not most must be clear by now that if they do not have a heavenly hope, they are just passengers to the whims of the governing body. In fact even remaining “anointed” not in Bethel are really just passengers. They have no say or affect on the direction of the organization. They too have a simple mandate, remain faithful to the governing body, even if what the governing body says doesn’t make sense, or lose their salvation only to die at Armageddon.
For the “other sheep”,which lets be honest, is just about every publisher that sits in a KH, the only hope they have of salvation and surviving Armageddon is to do exactly as the governing body tells them.
In essence, that really makes them implicit as Christ deniers, letting a cult dictate what relationship with Jesus they can or can not have despite what is written in their very own Bibles. Is it any wonder that millions reject the blood and body of Christ each year at the Memorial?
JWs worship the governing body. Many have pieced this together and have promptly left, willing to lose family and friends, not all in the pursuit of real “truth”, but because they could no longer be a part of such blatant hypocrisy and sickening disregard for actual scripture.
