Is it ONLY the JW's that knew of the Anointed?

    What are your understandings or knowledge about this? Are the JW's the only ones that were given "insight" as to who the Saints are?

    For a JW info board it is interesting that there is so very little on this subject of the Anointed here.

    I seem to recall hearing back-shadows whispers indicating that others had an anointed class, but I couldn't put it down to anything more than, perhaps, wishful thinking?

    My understanding is that the WT society knows f**k all about f**k all, and they're already victims of their own wicked stink.
    Thinking of the self 'Anointed' JW crew, I also think of the alien movie where Ripley blasts the room of horrors with a flame gun to kill all the abomination.

    But that's just how I'm seeing things.

    Elij,

    IMO your question's wrong, it's in the Watchtower mindset when it uses the term Anointed and seeks to identify that group. Look at it this way, where is the true Organisation? Got it? It presumes there is an organisation that God has set up as the sole channel of communication and salvation. Now why would anyone ask such a question? Because they're still in the W/T mindset.

    Much like your question really

    Cheers,
    Ozzie

    Seems like alot of people may have thrown out the baby with the bath water.

    Nonono. We carefully examined the bathwater, pouring it out through a sieve. There was no baby.

    Since the satanic ritual is fast approaching, thought this thread needed a bump.
