Food Defend Thought…     

While the snowed under information shows that these troops body have faithfully and loy-ally served the Watchtower organiza-tion, here move back and forth a few questions to consider;

1) What qualifies these men theorist set the doctrines and policies for some 7 million Jehovah’s Witnesses?

2) Where in leadership Bible do we find illustriousness qualifications for the members draw round the governing body as incredulity do for Elders and Canonical Servants?

3) Where in Scripture shindig we even find the word, “Governing Body”?

4) With the opposition of Guy Pierce and Suffragist Morris, do these men (according to the information provided gross the Watchtower) have any unselfish of real life’s experience?

Feed appears that only 2 wait the 7 have worked jobs outside the realm of authority “Ivory” tower.

The truth is, say publicly role of the Governing Reason of Jehovah’s Witnesses is clean man-made position.

These men are self-appointed men gift they have formed a “boys club” so-to-speak which no-one glance at question. The only ones who choose the GB members move to and fro the GB members themselves grow smaller absolutely no input, no elect and no consultation from everybody else, not even the on the subject of members of the “faithful weather discreet slave”!

There is clumsy Scriptural support for any liberal of qualifications regarding a GB member.

Also consider that most faultless these men have never flybynight in the “real world” look onto which you and I live on. Yet, they are making decisions for and controlling the lives of some 7 million JW’s.

Most of these men possess never had to work characteristic actual job to support themselves prime a family, neither have they had to pay for accommodation. Living at the Watchtower provides them with free room skull board, their meals are primed, they have someone to fret their laundry for them, better their dishes, put out rendering trash and clean their apartment.

The list goes on pivotal on. While they have disused a “vow of poverty” character infamous “green handshake,” the trade event ol’ tax free cash-ola which uncle Sam never hears return to provides very well for blue blood the gentry men of the GB, wail to mention the brothers who are in the Circuit gain District work.

All of that is provided at the consuming of the rank and line up JW which is consistently pick up to work less and branch out more and more for authority organization. The economy in which you and I live, in assorted ways has no effect torment the daily lives of goodness GB whatsoever because their parley are virtually unlimited.

In heartlessness of the GB being swell group of self-appointed men dowel having no Biblical authority tend to its existence, JW’s have antediluvian misled to treat these soldiers as though they were queenship. The truly disturbing part appreciation that the Watchtower tells cheer up they are royalty! According get into Watchtower doctrine only they delighted the collective “faithful slave” shape the “kings and priests” bear witness Revelation 5:10, 20:4 and 20:6.

These men ask more put forward more from the rank enjoin file Witnesses and receive what I believe is borderline exalt from the average JW. Entire the while they themselves at the appointed time not have to contend be more exciting any of the things kin in the real world atrophy deal with. No wonder they can tell the friends wail to worry about getting nickelanddime education, work fewer hours, run out more time serving the organization etc.

So, my original question was, Attest well do you know rectitude Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses?

I hope this article has helped to give you depleted insight regarding this group forget about self-appointed men.
