for some reason i can't post on the original topic about the fds on why the watchtower is doomed thread.

so i just started a new post.

as regards af's long-winded post on that thread, it is obvious to me that you don't know what you are talking about, and that you are merely trying to obfuscate the issue with this enormously long post.

We've been telling you that the whole time.

LOL. Repeating nonsense over and over and over again doesn't make it come true Sneeker.

You keep trying to give a literal interpretation to a parable.

I am not giving it any interpretation. However, Jesus did. He explanined that the parable had to do with those whom he put in charge of his household. That's Jesus' interpretation.

All it says is to be faithful like the slave in the
parable was faithful. There is nothing else to answer.

You are a liar. And you simply lack the honesty and humility to admit that you can't answer such a simple question.

If you think there is, provide evidence.

Are you really that stupid? When Jesus gave his parable, he concluded it by stating the principle upon which the illustration is based. The principle is that the one who is given charge over others will bear a heavier responsibility as to how he carries out that duty. Do you have a Bible? That verse stating the principle is not part of the illustration, it is instead the key to interpreting it. So you keep asking for proof but it is obvious that you simply have a perverse adversion to the truth and will stubbornly resist acknowledging the truth no matter how foolish you must become in doing so. But, I suppose it's as the Proverb says, even if you pulverize the foolish one, his foolishness will not depart from him. How true that is in your case.

The burden of proof is on the person who say...

No Sneeker, the burden is on you and Fraudbacker to explain how it is the all Christians are put in charge over God's household. Why don't you just admit that you are wrong? / You Know

Evidently you haven't heard of rhetorical questions that apply to the listeners.

Yes, I have heard of rhetorical questions. Jesus' question applies to all hearers who are interested in identifying the faithful slave whom the Master Jesus appoints over God's household. What's your point?

You are adding complexity that isn't warranted. You believe what you say? Provide some evidence.

Blustering buffoonery will only take you so far Sneeker. As it stands neither you nor Fraudbacker have answered the question having to do with how you suppose that all Christians are to be put in charge of other Christians. Do you want to give it another try? / You Know

I'm not twisting anything, but taking the parable at its word. Jesus himself, as you pointed out, applied it to all Christians by asking his rhetorical questions after giving the parable.

You are not taking the parable at its word. You are twisting it to mean something that it doesn't. You just keep sinking deeper and deeper into the ooze of your own making. Where did Jesus say that the illustration applied to all Christians? If you take the parable at its word as you claim, over whom are all Christians put in charge? Do you just make this stuff up as you go along? It is obviously way beyond the scope of your grasp, but the very fact that Jesus asked the question "who really is the faithful and discreet slave" indicates that not all Christians would have such an appointment. Instead it would be necessary for them to identify the one whom the Master set over the household by appoitment.

It's amusing, really, to think what the WTS might have said had the illustration been about kids who behave themselves and get dessert as a reward...

More stupidity on your part. Is there any end to it? / You Know

So first you say you can't take the parable literally, and then you proceed to take the parable literally!

Not so Sneeker. If I were to take the parable literally I would imagine that there was a plantation somewhere that had a bunch of slaves working in the field and some slaves were in charge of fix'n dinner for the other slaves. I don't take the illustration literally.

It doesn't mean that there will literally be Christians presiding over other Christians, that's taking the parable literally.

Sheer nonsense. The parable illustrates the relative positions between 3 different patries, actually 4 counting the "belongings." The master is OVER the slaves. And he appoints some slaves to be over other slaves. So the ILUSTRATION I-L-L-U-S-T-R-A-T-E-S how the slave in charge is called to account as to how he has discharged his responsibility. In your empty-headedness you imagine that merely understanding the reality illustrated is taking the parable literally. Apparently you simply lack the necessary reasoning ability to grasp how the concept of symbolizim works.

It says that all Christians should be faithful, and those who remain faithful
will be rewarded.

You are a liar. The parable doesn't include all Christians. The parable doesn't illustrate the situation of all Christians because the domestics are also part of God's household and yet they are not judged with the same judgment that the master levels against the one left in charge of the household. Clearly you will say anything to twist the truth of God's word. / You Know

Fraudbacker says:

Translation: "I don't know what I'm talking about and I know that I can't
logically answer anything so I'll perform my usual bluster/sidestep routine
and pretend to myself that no one notices."

I say your little routine is much like a one-legged guy tap dancing. Sure it can be done, but it aint pretty. Actually, you don't have a leg to stand on at all.

What you fail to understand is that the features of a parable are not to be taken as literal events.

LOL. No one said the parable was to be taken literally. We are not talking about literal slaves or literal food. The Master is not literally going to beat his slaves. Of course it's a parable you buffoon.

Yet you refuse to acknowledge that in Jesus' parable about
the slaves, the slaves and what happen to them are not to be taken literally.
They are representative of other things.

Oh brother. Of course the characters in the parable represent other things.

Since the apostle Paul makes it clear that only some Christians would
be apostles, and only some would be prophets, and only some would
be teachers, and he said this to anointed Christians, he clearly
indicated that not all "anointed Christians" would be put in charge of the
spiritual feeding of the Master's household.

Yes. That's correct. That is the only reasonable statement you have made so far.

I stated that "the lesson of this particular parable applies only to the slave that is put in charge over the domestics."

You said: "Prove it."

Here's where you really reveal your spiritual ineptitude. In can be easily proven because Jesus explained that that was what the parable was all about. After he gave the illustration he gave a principal that pertains to the slave's judgment where he said: "Indeed, everyone to whom much was given, much will be demanded of him; and the one whom people put in charge of much, they will demand more than usual of him." All Christians are not in charge over God's household of servants. The slave is one who is given charge over all of Christ's other servants. That cannot apply to all Christians but only to those who are actually appointed to that capacity. Obviously you are much in error. / You Know

Ah, here you diverge from the scripture. In the parable, it doesn't talk about the "household of God", but merely the
household of the master in the illustration. You apply it to God, but it doesn't say that in the parable itself.

What utter foolishness you are capable of spouting. And I suppose the Master doesn't represent Jesus, after all it doesn't say so in the parable. According to your foolish reasoning the master could be any old guy off the street. Of course, any first grade Bible student can readily realize that you don't know what you are talking and could easily prove who the Master is and who the household represents by merely turning to Hebrews 3;6 and reading the passage that says: "Christ was faithful as a Son over the HOUSE of that One. WE ARE THE HOUSE of that one."

Give it up Sneeker. / You Know

Parables are not just cute little stories. They have meaning. Jesus explained some of his parables to his disciples and they had quite specific meanings attached to them. The whole FDS parable centers around an appointment. It is not just a task that an indiscript slave has assigned to him, but he is appointed in a official capacity over the entire houshold of God. The parable reveals that the slave must answer to his master as to how he cares for his appointment. Not only that, but the parable only has application to a particular time---during Christ's presence. So, you either lack the intelligence to grasp to complexities of Christ's parable, or you are simply perversely opposed to its true explanation. It doesn't really matter which it is as far as I'm concerned. / You Know

Robert, your reply to Tom was vicious and nasty, and untruthful

It wasn't meant to be. I only wanted to draw attention to his hypocrisy. He doesn't have a lot of room to point the finger at anyone. But of course, like Jesus said, the world is fond of what is it's own, so it's understandable why the accursed children would so vehemently defend a murderer. / You Know

The parable doesn't say anything about teaching the domestics, just feeding them.

In the parable the slave is PUT IN CHARGE. In fact he is APPOINTED to a specific duty. That simply doesn't apply to all Christians. You are very much mistaken. / You Know

No, Tallyman did not murder his brother. It was proved in court that he killed his brother in self-defense.

Yeah, right. And OJ didn't slit his wife's throat either. Sorry, Mr. Fraudbaker, but Talisman was taking about Jehovah's judgment and that's a whole different court system. / You Know
