Scriptural reason why only the anointed can partake?

  Partaking has nothing to do with "forgiveness of sins" thats not scriptural.

  The new Covenant is with Mankind in General.

  Holy Spirit and being "annointed" simply means access.

  Access to God directly, "I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;" Joel 2:28

  ALL people:

  "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness

  to everyone who believes" Romans 10

  Everyone who believes is annointed, its not a special group or "class"

  this is the fundamental ERROR.

  Partaking is about being part of the Body of Christ.

  Its Universal, free, by Grace and open to all believers.

  There IS no "special class" called "the annointed" set apart from all believers,

  this error and belief in an "annointed class" is embedded in you

  so deep, by the Watchtower you keep going back, to the magical eight men,

  with hushed voices of awe. Freedom is seeing that there everyone

  is annointed by belief and faith and Grace.

  even all that will be meaningless, if there was no talking snake. its just religious fuzzy feelings of an higher order

  just analizing.

  Prologos - My objections are to mindset of the witnesses who are

  obessed with the meaningless doctrines of "special people" like

  an "anointed class" the FDS class, the earthy class, the heavenly class,

  the "Organization" as an entity; its all so "image worshipping" and idol

  worshipping. Its so, not, about anything actually spiritual and that shows

  in their mean spirited rules and fear mongering doctrines. They are the

  ultimate model of the anti-Christ as an organization.

  If the Bible was truly from god (which I no longer believe) then the ORG would be the ORG from the angel of light Satan himself. For I know of no other religion that does so much to distract people away from Jesus all the while acting as though they were god's chosen religion. Exactly what satan would do, in fact he would go so far as to say that the evil faithful and discreet slave does not exist.
