    In Anointed Experience #1 I recounted a two part question from the CO to test whther I was really 'Anointed':

    "He then asked me to describe what the Body is: I told him the Body of Christ is the Christian Congregation of Anointed made up of 144,000, to which I am a member. He then said I was partly correct, but there is another part that I also need to answer about "Discerning the Body." CLUE: Not about how I knew I was Anointed, but rather something about the BODY. I was a little fuzzy about what he was driving at, and then suddenly the light came on, and I gave the correct response. But, he was still not totally satisfied. ... Why? ... because I hesitated in my response to the second part of the "Trick" answer I was supposed to give. I told him I thought he was straining issues, and that I didn't see why my slight hesitation would bother him."

    While I gave him essentially the correct answer, it was his rewording of that answer that made me feel weird:

    My Response to the second part: The Body of Christ is also the Bride of Christ, promised in marriage at the heavenly wedding feast. The 144,000 will become one in union with Christ at that time.

    CO reworded response: "That's basically correct. Are you therefore aware that as part of the Body of Christ, and therefore part of his Bride, that you will be joined completely and collectively in Holy Matrimony with Jesus Christ? Do you understand that means holy intercourse with Jesus?

    My reaction: Errrr ... uhhhhh ... I have not quite thought of it in those terms ...

    Soooo ... today, May 5th, 2002 ... I am not a JW Anointed. ... just a regular guy ... nope, no celestial intercourse for me!

    Ah ... I have come across this before - often, while driving, someone will shout out of the window "F***ing Christ!" which must be some reference to this heavenly holy intercourse. [8>]

    (apologies for the language)

    You have to wonder what (if anything) is going on in some peoples minds don't you ?!

    Amazing,

    When I read your response, I thought, "well, yes, of course, I should have known that's what he meant..."

    But then to read the non-anointed CO's restatement - I find it rather repellant, you know? Was the CO an ex-Mormon? I have never heard anything like that from any witness during the 20+ years I was associated in NYC.

    I get the feeling that this CO was so far off the wavelength of the anointed that the only way he could relate to the concept was by reducing it to the carnal level. He didn't happen to suggest that porno-film theme music should be played during the Memorial service, did he? Maybe he anticipated "new light" about the WTS-approved "Messianic Position" for spiritual intercourse. This, of course, would be superior to the currently approved "Missionary Position."

    I guess you can tell that I find the CO's expression somewhat stunning. Even as a rabid, gnashing atheist I get the sense that his head was not really in the game he claimed to be playing.

    Leave it to a dimwit dub to get what the Bible says Exactly backwards.

    The Bride of Christ is the Church, that is all professed Christians, who will be united with God in Eternity. Marriage is an earthly representation of something we will never be able to understand until we get there.

    The mental image raised by that man's comment was...disturbing (at best). He also managed to entirely miss the point by draggin a spiritual future down to an earthly mundane. This proves that he is in fact a carnal creature, not a spiritual regeneration (born again) as all Christians are discribed by the Bible.

    Since when did a 'questionaire' manual exist for anointed ones? Since when can any human read the hearts of men when the scriptures tell us that the heart is treacherous? Is not the heavenly calling a personal relationship with God? Have they lowered the heavenly calling to a baptismal questionaire? Who authorised them to ask such personal questions. oh, I forgot we are an entity.

    Personally Amazing I would have asked if this was a joke and I would not have responded to any HIS questions. I would have told him that it was a personal matter, period.

    Guest77: At the time, I was a believing JW and Elder. I had built good rapore amoung the JWs where I lived, and didn't give this a thought ... until I traveled to another part of the country ... and I was blind-sided. So, my response was made at each step as I thought I should make it. I never forgot the experience.

    Some CO's are that way ... some are kind men who try to do their best, and some walk around with a high-voltage stare in the eye, believing they are something special. One never knows when these jerks will jump out of the woodwork to put us in an awkward position.

    Even after I left the JWs, a CO came to my door, and made my life awkward ... even though he did not know I was a JW.
