"My Master is delaying" / Two witness policy


Jesus described "the wicked steward" by means of a list of characteristics (Luke 12:45-46,39-40,56; 16:1-2).
That steward would originally have been appointed by Christ himself (Luke 12:42; 1Cor.4:2; Gal.4:1-2; Col.1:25), for the purpose of "feeding" his entire household of chosen and hired servants (Luke 12:42; Heb.3:6; 1Tim.3:15; 1Cor.3:16; 14:33; 1Pet.2:5,9) (Rom.8:29-30; 9:23; John 17:22; 1Cor.2:7; 2Thess.2:14; John10:35; 1:14; 17:22) (Matt.20:1; 21:28-31; 15:24; Rom.9:23-24).
(Who are the gods? --John10:34-35)
One trait which Jesus ascribed the wicked steward, was that he would realize, "My Master is delaying" (Luke12:45). 
That steward had falsely claimed that the Master/Bridegroom, had already arrived (2Thess.2:1-3; 1Tim.4:1; Rev.16:13-16). 
(http://pearl-anillustration.blogspot.com/)
Since the Master's arrival includes an eternal appointment for the faithful (Matt.25:19; Luke19:17; 16:10-12; Dan.7:22,18), the steward could then assert that he had already been appointed as the "faithful slave" over all the Master's belongings (Matt.24:46-47; 28:18; Ps.2:8; Gen.13:14-15; 28:13-14; Dan.7:18), including all those deluded by this false proclamation about the Master's arrival.
Subjection to the unfounded authority of such a steward, and belief in his lying assertions, would place subjected followers under spiritual captivity to deception (Col.2:8; Rev.13:11,7,10; Luke 21:24; Rev.11:2).
Christ's "virgins" (2Cor.11:2; Matt.25:1) would also accept the bad provisions/"fruit"/teachings  coming from the wicked steward/false prophet, which would result in their having premature expectation (Matt.25:5). The Steward's declaration was premature (Dan.7:25,8; Rev.13:5). Expectations were disappointed (Luke17:20-23; Matt.24:23-25). The wicked steward would eventually be forced to retract his initial false assertion, by admitting the "delay" (Luke12:45)... 
which in truth, such a delay of the Master does not occur, because the Master/Bridegroom arrives, just when he should (Hab.2:3; Heb.10:37; Rev.22:20).

The "governing body" of "Jehovah's Witnesses" has recently changed their doctrine about the arrival of Christ, and when his inspection of all Churches claiming to be his Christian servants, occurred. In the past, they taught that their administration which was present in 1919, passed Christ's arrival and inspection, and as a result, was appointed as the faithful slave, over all Christ's belongings. 
What do they say now?
The following is an excerpt from
(http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/activities/events/annual-meeting-report-2012/"
as follows:
"When Does Jesus Appoint the Slave “Over All His Belongings”?
Jesus said that the “master on arriving” (literally, “having come”) will appoint the slave “over all his belongings.” When does the Master, Jesus, arrive?
The expression translated “on arriving” is a form of the Greek word er′kho·mai. Verses 42 and 44 of chapter 24 translate a form of er′kho·mai as “coming.” In those verses, Jesus is referring to his coming as Judge during the great tribulation.—Matthew 24:30; 25:31, 32.
Jesus’ appointment of the “slave” over his “belongings,” then, must also be a future event. He will make that appointment during the great tribulation."

The leadership of "Jehovah's Witnesses" is now asserting, that the Master gave the "first appointment" in 1919, 
(Two Appointments)
and will give the second appointment/final reward, when he really returns (during the Great Tribulation). They also assert that since 1919, they and their governing "Watchtower" predecessors, are the only slaves of Christ being assigned the first appointment as steward. 
But remember what Christ himself said about that first appointment? 
It occurs before the Master leaves and before the Master receives his kingdom 
(Luke19:12-13; Matt.25:14-15) 
(which kingdom, the "Watchtower" claims, began in 1914 -before 1919). 
Jesus did not leave the earth in 1919 (John16:16,7; Acts 1:8-9). If 1919 were the time when the first appointment took place, that means that there were no appointed slaves of Christ (to be faithful or unfaithful) until 1919. Scripture easily nullifies that outrageous assertion (1Cor.4:1-2; 9:17; 3:5-6,8,14; Rom.1:1; Col.3:24; John15:15-16,8; Luke 6:44-45; 2Tim.4:2,5; 1Tim.4:16). Slaves of Christ have existed since Jesus was on earth, when the first of them received their assignment (Luke12:42; John 21:17; Matt.10:7-8; Eph.4:11-12 etc.). Some have been found faithful (2Tim.4:7-8; 1Pet.5:12; Eph.1:1; 6:21; Col.4:7,9,1,12; 1:2,7)... others, unfaithful (Col.2:19; Heb.6:4-6). Both sorts will grow together until the time of final harvest (Matt.13:25,29-30,39; 24:31; Rev.14:14-20) (Mark 13:30; Matt.28:20 B) (Mark 8:38).

Even as anointed teachers (Eph.4:11; 1Cor.12:28), we may make mistakes (Job 38:2; 42:3; 1Cor.4:6). We may speak before we are finished learning and therefore, spoke from a place of misunderstanding. We may prophesy or teach, before we realize our own assignment in the Body of Christ (1Cor.12:27-29,17-19; Eph.4:11-12)
Or, we may have the right idea in our mind, but fail at expressing it accurately. When such happens, we must right the wrong with a humble attitude, and be as diligent as possible in getting the corrections and clarifications to those whom we have taught. This is very different than claiming that the error came from God, which the WT asserts. How so?
They claim that everything they teach, is a message from God, and is never wrong. When they must make changes and "adjustments", they promote such as "new light", as if the previous teaching needing change, was not error/darkness. Light is truth (John 14:6; 1:4). If it is not true, it is not light. No darkness comes from God, and His light does not change (1John 1:5; James 1:17).  
If we as teachers are guilty of teaching error, we must not blame God. It was our failure to go beyond what God gave us (1Cor.4:6; John12:49), or to lose His spirit (Matt.25:8). It was Satan who claimed that his darkness was light (Gen.3:5; 1Tim.6:20). 

Jesus said, "Wisdom is PROVED RIGHTEOUS by it's children/results/works" (Luke 7:35). 
(John 7:17-18; 8:54,50)
Although the governing body claims that they are "the faithful slave", and they enforce that claim with an army of Gentile "elders"...
If by their own admission, the "wisdom" that they previously declared, is conceded as error (needs to be changed), then it was never God's wisdom (Jer.14:14; 23:16,15; Rev.8:10-11).
(http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2014/12/wormwood-armageddon-false-prophet.html)
How does a teacher "PROVE RIGHTEOUS", and therefore, exhibit genuine wisdom?
Rom.3:4 tells us...
"Let God be true, and every human being a liar. As it is written: "So that you may be *proved righteous* (John 7:18; 16:13) when you speak, and prevail when you judge."
There it is. If our speech is to be proven righteous and therefore wise and true, we must accept that God is true, and each of us, is a liar.
We prove our belief that God is true, when we derive ALL we teach, from scripture (John 17:17; 16:13; 7:17-18) and Holy spirit (John4:23-24). If we don't, it is not God who lied, but us. If our teachings are from God's Word, it will be found wise and true, and be proven righteous. It will not need to "vary" or change (1John 1:5; James 1:17).

1John4:6 reads;
"We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood."
If we listen to (accept, understand, believe, obey, and teach) the teachings of Christ's apostles and prophets (which are sourced in God's Word), we have the spirit of truth, and have accepted it's foundation (Eph.2:20; 1Cor.3:10).
Those who do not derive all they teach from scripture and spirit, have not accepted the supremacy of God. How can we tell the difference? 
We are listening to (and building upon) the foundation of God's true Temple (Eph.2:20-22; 1Cor.3:10), when we accept ("listen to" 1John4:6; Luke10:16) what they have written in scripture.
By a comparison to those writings, the fruit of a teacher's lips, is known (Luke 6:44-45; Matt.7:20). If that fruit/teaching is rotten, God was not the source of it (Rev.22:1-2; Eze.47:12; Ps.1:3).
All truth is backed by scripture.

I know of no scripture which identifies the current governing body of "Jehovah's Witnesses", as the solitary steward assigned by Christ, or that they are already dubbed by Christ as found to be a "faithful and discreet slave" (Luke 6:26). By their own admission, the bestowing of that distinction, is yet future. 
Why this change in doctrine? Because, the Master is coming later than they originally asserted. The Master is delayed.

I know of no scripture which encourages "pioneering" or the public posting of those names who do, or recording total hours of preaching, 
or counting placed literature, or number of visits, or attendees at meetings (Isa.28:10; Matt.15:7-9; Col.2:22; Mark 7:13), or what people should wear, organizational hierarchy (Ec.5:8), or giving money for ostentatious building projects
Yet I am familiar with scriptures, which dissuade such things (Matt.6:1-6,25; James 2:1-5; John7:24; Col.3:23; Prov.16:3; 2Cor.2:17; 1Chron.21:1) (Haggai 1:9,4; Acts 7:48; 1Cor.3:16; 1Pet.2:5; Dan.7:21; Luke 21:24; Rev.13:10,7; 11:7; 12:17). Today, God's Temple priesthood lies in ruins... overcome and trampled by Gentile "elders".

      --- Two Witness Policy ---

But there is another egregious policy not sourced with scripture, but rather, with the leadership of "Jehovah's Witnesses". It is followed when ongoing physical abuse, or sexual battery or rape is committed between members of the cult.
The victim is silenced by the "elders". They are told they must not go to court or to the police (Rom.13:1; John 19:10-11; Rom.13:2-6), in order to protect the reputation of God's name. Why? Did God commit the crime? 
1Cor.6:1 and Deut.19:15 are cited.
Yet scriptural justice directs that an anointed priest reside over such a matter (Num.16:47; Rev.8:4; James 5:15; Lev.6:7; Rev.5:10; Matt.16:19; John 20:22-23; 1Cor.6:1-3; Gal.6:1; Rom.8:14,9,16; 1Cor.2:15; 1Cor.3:16). 
Yet a serious crime is not a petty "matter"/"dispute"/"perceived injustice"/"smallest matter" (1Cor.6:1) as indicated by the Greek word there. 
Still, God's requirement to convict would be satisfied if there is more than one molestation victim that comes forward over time. Even so, the governing leaders of "Jehovah's witnesses", are not satisfied, and as unreasonable as it may sound, still require two witnesses to each incident.
However, 
when it comes to child sexual abuse or rape, God's own justice makes an exception to the "two witness" rule, as is also the case with murder (Deut.22:25-26), which usually is not committed before any witnesses.
Merciless pressure is brought to bear by "elders" upon traumatized victims, in addition to what the victim has already suffered, as if God required it (Ec.4:1). The result? The evil man goes free, his reputation kept sanitary, potential future victims made vulnerable, and the oppressed are denied justice (1Cor.5:13; Isa.1:17; 10:1-2; 56:11; Ps.82:3; Jer.21:12; 23:17; 7:16-17; Job 6:14; Prov.24:24; 18:5; 31:8-9,5; Rev.18:3; Isa.5:20-23; Hosea 4:18). (Jer.22:16; Micah 6:8; James 2:13)
The real reason this injustice occurs? To protect a facade... the Image of the Organization, as a spotless spiritual paradise (Jer.6:13-14; Eze.13:10; 22:27; 34:2-4; Acts 20:29) (Rev.13:14-15,12,8; Isa.48:1-2; Jer.7:4; Matt.24:23). The innocent who do not honor that false Image of divinity, are slandered and expelled (Prov.17:15; Ex.23:6-7; Ps.12:5; Matt.7:15; 12:7; Jer.23:2; 22:3; Rev.11:7; 17:6; Zech.11:15-17) (Eze.45:9; Isa.59:3-9,14-15; 32:7; Amos 5:12). (Ps.94:21; Rev.20:9; Micah 7:3; 3:10-11; 1Thess.5:3)

  1. The "master is delaying" because of the 1914 lie. Somehow, 1914 must be preserved and cleared as “truth” at any cost. The False prophet must honor 1914,because its when the false fulfilments of Christ's Signs started... with the GREAT War of WW1. This is the ONLY reason the GB seen to be in their position.

    But its the Anointed who say he is delaying,that are the same Ones who start beating their fellow slaves,because that same Anointed has been lying since 1914 and is the False Prophet. That they keep lying about 1914 shows they are the False Prophet who gains position within "jws" via the “great signs” that mislead. Without that authority through the false signs fulfilment that satan gives them,they would loose their position within the Org.

    The same Anointed starts beating their fellow slaves because their fellow slaves are waking up to the great deception through the false fulfilments of the Signs. CHRIST is telling them this! The False Prophet has only one way to control Truth seeking Anointed within "jws". To beat and mistreat them. They cannot admit to the truth the newly awakened Anointed see,because this would mean having to admit 1914 and the false signs,are from satan...that he created the Sign in his world,just for them to have power. So there is NO WAY as the false prophet that the Harlot will ever admit that they are the ones who are saying to themselves “my master is delaying” because of the satanic lie of 1914 which is supported by the "lying signs" they have spruiked for 100 years within satans world.

    Its because of 1914,that those Anointed who champion the Signs that back it,think the master is delaying..AND THEN mistreat waking Anointed who are exposing the "Prophetic Lies" accepted by the Harlot to have rulership. If the harlot admitted that 1914 and satans signs backing it are a lie,then they would see the master is NOT delaying VIA the truth coming through Anointed who they are beating to keep quiet. But they will never admit the lie f 1914...even when Christ is "in your midst" through Anointed who are telling them the truth FROM Christ. The False Prophet would lose its power AND position within “jws”. So they have to keep on BEATING their fellow Anointed to shut them up about 1914 and its “Lying Signs”,instead of admitting the truth from Christ.

    1. Yes, in truth, Jesus does not delay at all (Heb.10:37; Hab.2:3). It appears to those mislead, that he is delaying...
      because as you say, they believed the counterfeit arrival staged by Satan and his false prophet.
      Jesus knew that the last of his own brothers (the "remaining ones"/remnant/Great Tribulation survivors) would be mislead by that premature announcement (2Thess.2:1-3; Luke17:22). That misleading would occur, after Satan is released from the Abyss (Matt.24:24-25,22; Rev.12:9; 20:7-8; 16:13-16), during the great tribulation, during which the anointed are overcome (Rev.13:7; 11:2). But as we know, "Michael" "stands up" on behalf of God's people (Dan.12:1) and releases the sealed information contained in the book of Revelation (Dan.12:4,9-10,3; Rev.1:20; 20:12; 22:6; John16:13), so that his slaves will know what is coming (Rev.1:1). That is the purpose of this Blogspot.

  2. "The real reason this injustice occurs? To protect a facade... the Image of the Organization, as a spotless spiritual paradise."

    "The innocent who do not honor that false Image of divinity, are slandered and expelled"

    Rom 13:4 for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil.

    Rom 13:5 Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.

    Rom 13:6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing.

    Rom 13:7 Render to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor."

    Its so hypocritical that the GB makes such a big thing about paying taxes and obeying road laws,yet wont go to the same secular authorites when children are sexually assaulted. Talk about gulping the camel. Paul under inspiration says "it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil." Do they really accept this from Jah? No. Instead,they use the Law to HIDE the people who have done these terrible things against Children...and more children were therefore assaulted.

    Watch this space,because what is underway,is that the supreme court Judge in charge of the Royal Commission into sexual abuse within Australia,is being informed of the following...and will hopefully become public. When "Mr Jackson" of the GB appeared before the Commission HE KNEW these files were not only hidden within Australian Bethel,HE KNEW they were also hidden within each Bethel HQ around the World. What a disgusting HARLOT!

    Jer 23:2 Therefore thus says Yhwh God of Israel against the shepherds who feed My people: "You have scattered My flock, driven them away, and not attended to them. Behold, I will attend to you for the evil of your doings," says Yhwh.
