The illustration does not match what the bible reveals about how God uses holy spirit.
In the bible, holy spirit is used to overcome human weaknesses, human imperfections and human limitations. God gives his servants holy spirit to ensure that they can do the job correctly. What would be the point of God giving people holy spirit to help them if he's not going to give them all the help they need to accomplish the task perfectly?
God did not give the bible writers holy spirit only to give them a little help. He gave them holy spirit to ensure that what they wrote in the bible is perfectly accurate. God did not give holy spirit to the 120 at pentecost to give them a little help in being able to speak foreign languages a little better. No. He gave them holy spirit to miraculously empower them to speak foreign languages perfectly so that the foreign visitors could understand them.
Holy spirit doesn't just give the person a little help. It makes them fully capable of performing the job perfectly. The only way a person who has been empowered with holy spirit will fail to do the job adequately is if the person rebels against the leading of holy spirit. This can happen. But when it does God will cease giving holy spirit to the one rebelling against its leading.
So this talk about holy spirit not working as in the first century is just a rubbish con excuse to cover over the fact that the JWs are not being directed by holy spirit at all. The embarrassing rubbish they have printed in the past is proof positive of the lack of holy spirit in the organization. God will not direct an organization with holy spirit and allow it to print such rubbish. That would be defeating the whole purpose of directing them with holy spirit.

Well said. It weakens the Holy Spirit to be nothing more than a coping mechanism.
just shows they are not directed by an awesome power.

You should text that elder back and ask, does that mean that it wasn't the holyspirit that made the philippino jws make them go to the kh's but helped them get there and then when the storm surge came in and took the jws out to sea, it wasn't the holyspirit that took these people out to sea but it made them drown faster?

Piston broke a common problem no less.
Actually for the Governing Body the problem is engine wear caused by lean spirit mixture the ratio is all wrong too much oil not enough spirit thus as an engine wears out its combustion declines .
Ah well back to the theocratic drawing board .

That is so deep that I'm getting a headache. Maybe some Holy Spirit aspirin will help.

You just need the Holy Spirit additive and all your wildest dreams will come true.
