    There are seven men who proclaim to be the Faithful and Discreet Slave. But, are they?

    If those 7 nitwits are the best that Jehovah can come up with, well....

    That doesn't speak well of him.

    Maybe Thor has some openings in his worshiper list?

    The Seven, they stand where they should not.

    Is God perfect and infallible?

    Does he make mistakes?

    Do the GB make mistakes?

    If something they say proves to be wrong, or needs "amending with new light", was God wrong, or were they?

    Pff, faithful slave my ass. They're delusional fools, drunk with power and control.

    The real slaves are those they rule over.

    I forget who said it (Orwell?) " To enslave people is easy, all you have to do is get them to love their enslavement"

    that 's the general gist of the quote and it applies well to JWs.

    they're leading someone someplace, lol,

    matt;15:14

    Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if a blind man guides a blind man, both will fall into a pit


    the great dragon has 7 heads too..... [hmm isn't 7 in the bible supposed to mean completeness?]

    That question shouldn't even be asked until it is shown that there even is a "faithful and discreet slave". It seems that the passage of scripture that contains the term is parabolic, not prophetic.

    No, they do not lead the "congregation." The "congregation" is the body of Christ, aka Christian believers. If they believe they are the boss of everyone, they are the "evil slave", but that can't be true...

    They are the boss of the rank&file, who are not part of the congregation. The R&F don't know this, of course.

    DD, exactly why they made up two groups using little flock (Jews) and great crowd (Gentiles) incorrectly for nefarious purposes. No different from a clergy-laity.

    Nitwits claiming to be sole representatives of God; placing themselves above the Apostles and equal to Christ. Vanity! Madness! Pfffft! At least the Pope only claims to rep Peter.

    Let the GB tend your sheep for a year. You'll return and find half of them missing, a high number neglected, with only a few fatty rams .... and the GB will be blaming the sheep.

    A few of those sheep will be pregnant and all your money will be gone from your sock drawer. 😳
