Hello Antique,
Thanks for sharing this. Don't be afraid!
This is EXACTLY how the anointed act. They "know" something. So it is very possible your daughter is of the "chosen", without even having a lot of Biblical knowledge. Some who are not even Christian or Christian-oriented are chosen. But they are very special people of potential that God sees in their hearts.
If she needs a direct reference she should understand and read Matthew 20 about the vineyard workers and simply clearly understand that many anointed ones would receive the "penny" who didn't think they were eligible before.
Tha's the "pain" and "tribulation" which will be true of many witnesses and that is realizing that they ALL were invited into the kingdom, if only they had paid more direct attention to the Bible.
But I know of anointed ones who are not connected with the organization at all and they just have their own Biblical focus. Jehovah does what he wants with each one.
And at the same time, we know who must not be getting spiritual light right now, right? That's the second thing. Take a moment to notice who has the truth now. Where that light is coming from and where it is dark.
Well, may you and your daughter and your whole family have continued blessings as you are able to actually accept what is true from God's word.
But tell your daughter, if she thinks she is of the anointed, she probably is, but she has to ACCEPT the anointing. Some are "chosen" and because they don't think they should be of the heavenly class, they don't actually accept the anointing by holy spirit. They have to have the Biblical foundation to get past the WTS idea that the anointed ones were filled up by 1935 and there are no more seats left, etc.
The 'anointing' did stop after about 14 years, but not the "choosing." But now, with the sealing being done, there should be thousands of newly anointed ones coming in.
What I was told (and didn't listen to) was that many of the anointed who couldn't handle the apostasy within the WTS didn't dissociate but just became inactive. That's the way they are handling it. But I couldn't deal with the elders coming by so I impulsively just "dissociated" only having to rescind the dissociation. Of course, you're still out at that point until you do your pennance attending meetings, etc. And I'm just not up to it.
KEY WORD: HEADS UP! This is the time to be awake, as Jehovah is becoming active in the earth again. Investigate. Question. Make sure of all things. If it's not right, reject it! But don't be too lazy to look. If you're too lazy or non-caring to pursue the truth, then you will not get to the finer truth and get an accurate knowledge.
Cheers,
Bibleman
