Brother Russell did not claim that he, ALONE,
was the 'Faithful and discreet servant, and if
at one time where he thought he was, he found
sound scriptural reasons to no longer view him-
self to be the only one servant. Rather,
he found
this "Servant" to be a composite group, which
is now known as the Remnant, members of the
144,000 who have a heavenly inheritance.
I have placed this particular message in other
posts---look here below----
The
Governing body did not and has never
lied to anyone concerning the 'dates' that so
many have questioned.
Please Go, if you will, to your dictionary and
look up the defination of the word,'LIE'
Never mind, I will do it for you.
Lie simply means- - 'A false statement known to be
false by the person saying it.'--A false statement
deliberately made with the knowledge that it is
untruthful and with the purpose of deceiving, some
times hurting
someone.' etc.
I found this in my dictionary right under the
defination of 'LIE'---
'A faithful witness will not lie'---Prov.14:5
The Governing Body did NOT LIE! If they are guilty
of anything, it would be that they had alot
of ZEAL! And we can thank them for this!
This zeal did produce results, perhaps it got alot of you, Brothers and sisters, in the
Truth in line for prospects of a wonderful future!
This is not the time to leave Jah's
Organization.
Since Jehovah will speed up the work in the last
days, don't you suppose his counter enemy Saten the Devil will do so also? It is apparant to me'
that he has, and we can see the evidence right here on the internet.
What better tool to get into
the hearts and minds of God's True Servants.
He is a master deceiver and has had more than
thousands of years of practice. Please reconsider
your position right now if you are having
doubts
about Jehovah's Organization.
Remember, in the time of the end, Matt.24: 46-50
says that the 'WICKED SLAVE' would be saying the
Master is DELAYING and will beat (verbally) his fellow slaves and then begin to eat and
drink with
drunkards ( Emphatic Diglott replaces the word
drunkards, with the word intemperate; which means,
persons without self control.
could it mean not only selecting bad associations
but also begin to partake of the
emblems in various churches where there is no spiritual
cleanliness? No discipline from Jehovah?
And last, No disfellowshipping to keep Jehovah's
'Spiritual Temple' clean? (in line with pure worship)
