A second fulfillment of Daniel 4:10-17, the thread by which their 'spiritual authority' hangs
by JWB ina second fulfillment of daniel 4:10-17, the thread by which their 'spiritual authority' hangs.
if one were to get to the doctrinal root of the present-day wt society, it surely would have to be the belief in 1914 as the beginning of the heavenly reign of christ and the subsequent choosing of a 'faithful and discreet slave' to take charge of all his 'earthly belongings'.. .
the belief is that the 'faithful and discreet slave' has graduated from the one task of serving 'spiritual food' to being essentially the chief representative of jesus in the earthly realm.

in another thread a poster pointed to isaiah 13:12-13, which got me thinking about the expression "the day of the lord".
