Elder Donolley,
You said:
"We, as true Christians, are led by the holy spirit eminating from none other that God's modern-day mouthpiece. Wouldn't you rather rely on them?"
With the WTS's track record regarding predictions that
have failed to come to pass, 'new light' that was discarded in favour of 'newer' light, ect. ect., it is hard for any reasonable, intelligent person to understand how one could put their trust in such an organization. One is far better off
to have faith in God, not in a group of men who claim to be speaking for God.
If a religious organization makes predictions that fail to pass, make 180 degree turns on important issues, then they obviously can't be under divine
direction, wouldn't you agree?
Harold
