Governing Body-Part of Great Crowd

by TakeOffTheCrown in

it appears that the governing body members today are part of the great crowd and are not of the anointed.. to those with some knowledge of the subject, is it possible that the christian congregation would eventually be lead by those who are not anointed?

BUT...all current members of the GB were helpers to previous GB members and there is a WT, after 1992, that states all helpers were of the great crowd thus NOT ONE of the current GB was anointed in 1992 which was the magic year they used in their broadcast to define that "second generation" that overlapped with the lives of the "first" (F.Franz death).
The current GB members are all part of the "third generation" that neither saw 1914 nor were anointed at the time of living with an anointed person who did see 1914.

Good point.

The mindset of the Governing Body is fleshly, of the earth. Not spiritual.

Memorial Bread-Break a piece off or eat whole?

by TakeOffTheCrown in

question for some of the old-timers in the congregation.

did those who professed to be of the anointed and partook of the bread, did they break off a piece of the bread and then eat it; or did they take the whole piece and eat it?

I don't know if "breaking bread" has a special meaning, but Luke 24:30-32 makes me think about breaking the bread.
(NIV) 30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?"

From the quote: "When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight."

It appears the Christian Congregation today is being led by worldly men who belong to the Great Crowd; not the anointed. Below is a thread regarding this subject:
