Hi someone loyal,
yours are "weasel words"(TM).
you know full well that the "slave" is supposed to have been providing food to the domestics, and now you're saying that they are incapable of doing just that! In fact, it is supposed to have been APPOINTED by Jesus in 1919 for that purpose - I guess like most employers, occasionally mistakes get made.
Well, some have known that for a long time.
After all, there is no evidence that the "slave" as constructed by the WTS bears any relation to the slave of Matt 24. Oh - if you have some please feel free to contribute it ASAP (before they all die off).
In addition, what evidence can you find in Isa 61:1-5 indicating that they could possibly have any reference to "spiritual Israel" today - it is talking about the rebuilding of the desolated places (ah, now I can see what you meant ;-).
"weasel words" TM, "1"
Of course the annointed must continue to decrease - the Society has set an arbitrary limit on their numbers. Oh - you have other reasons why this remarkable feat of logic should be believed? I'd be pleased to discuss them with you.
As a moderator I'm very pleased to see you avoided the use of the RSN trademark, but you are treading dangerously close using "Very Soon Now".
Love,
Andrew.
