Outside of the context of the Christian organization, anybody can say that they are anointed.
I can say it. You can say it. Anyone can say it. They might be genuine. They might be deluded. They might even be lying through their teeth, angling for future prominence. How would anyone ever know?
In theory, that could also be true of any member of the Governing Body. In practice, it is next to impossible. They have supplied evidence of their anointing through decades of time. They have supplied a track record. They are not people who, though supposedly 'godly,' really couldn't get along with anybody, but they have submitted their faith to practical full-time and unpaid test.  
They have proven their Christian qualities. Usually they have served in areas far more lowly than that of the ones whom they will later lead. No phony is going to do this....full-time, long-term, and unpaid...but only the genuine article.
In contrast, the case seems far weaker with so-called anointed who pop up with unique views and presently begin to separate themselves because they can't get along, grumbling that nobody is listening to them. I'm sorry...I just cannot get my head around renegade anointed roaming in the wilds.

There seems to be more of us that believe the GB will be removed.  Who really knows only time will tell. 
It seems I'm wasting my time on here. I've said the things I've wanted to say and i haven't learnt anything that will bring me any closer to God or Jesus Christ. 
Time to look for the door outwards. 

From time to time, before the Tree of Liberty is covered with beautiful white blossoms, it has to be fertilized and watered with the bodies and blood of tyrants, and patriots.

I agree ... we should learn from their collective wisdom.

Isn't "shunning" an attempt to totally control speech?

I am always amazed at what agenda driven people get from a presentation of hard facts.

That is a sword that cuts BOTH ways .... talking the talk, and not walking the walk, as Watchtower Supervisor Richard Ashe testified under oath.

Me with a thong would be grossly immodest ... on that gal that played opposite Paul Hogan in the first "Crocodile Dundee" movie, it was positively inspirational.

Interesting article and video.....
On 11 December most countries will sign the UN Compact in Morocco.  It is part of the "Agenda 21" plan for the 21 st century  started in 1992.  Read up about Agenda 21, agenda 2030 and about this Compact for Migration which will criminalize anyone saying anything against the UN plan.  Those countries who signed are obliged to assist migrants financially and basically all people have a right to migrate....(no more borders).   About 20 nations are now fighting  it and will be forced by fines for not complying.  It is part of the UN plan for one world government...  Is this real? Or a conspiracy.... ? Watch this little video and give comments of the implications.    I have the original documents and on this Youtube link you can also download the UN document "agenda 21".   NGOs have already been receiving funds to implement it for the past 20 years and both republican and democratic governments has been changing laws to implement is..... It has been going on  under our noses and the general public does not know.  My interest in this is the fulfillment of prophecy which indicates the UN or coalition of governments to rule for short period of time before Armageddon.  There are huge implications to this .... but first watch this little video to begin the discussion....   here is the link.....
 
 

Could this be the same "Deep State" that is fighting Donald Trump right now?
Globalists versus Nationalists.....
Globalists are unhappy that Nationalists have messed with their plan. They want to take down the wall between countries and emerge as one large sovereign state while Trump wants to put up the wall.... thinking good walls make good neighbors.
Interesting.
Who will win?

I am always amazed at what agenda driven people get from a presentation of hard facts.

I say what I think - it depends on how you say it  ...... and I am a woman!...... You see, woman do not have as big egos as most men.  It is a control thing with men or to be important or in charge.  Brothers have a life-long battle to learn to control this. Some acknowledge this and some don't.  If they are honest before Jehovah - they improve.  If not - they get themselves into all kinds of problems....
I am not going to argue with you guys - your are so negative and toxic - you do not even come close to understanding how toxic you are.... so lets leave it at that.
If you still want me on this forum then discuss the subject above and do not start to pull the GB apart.  

???? What is this about? Why are you getting a kick out of goading me? Or kicking against my goads, or whatever that scripture says? (Acts 26:14)
I know about the fraud(s). My wife gets "mad" at me when I string them along for about 25+ minutes, while doing other things of course. I have tracked about 4 versions of this, and I get calls like this every few days. It turns out that these young men from India will get very mad and start cursing at you, and just can't let it go after you have wasted half an hour of their time and they realize they've been had (in the sense that they finally figure out they are not really making progress in convincing you to part with money and/or offering them full access to your machine/network).
Of course, I may have to stop doing this after the reminders in today's Watchtower Study.
When they get to the point where they are having you look up supposedly unique numbers in obscure computer files and pretend that this is your license code to prove they are legit, you can act convinced and say OK, I see you are legit . . . . But wait, let me look up and see if it's the same number on my other computer just in case this isn't really unique. . . .  I look it up and after about 5 minutes tell them that it's the same number (which it is). Then they tell you that this is because you are on the same network . . . And then you tell them that you tethered/hotspotted your iPhone as the network for this other computer (which I did) . . . and then they tell you it's because you are on the same network again, because they don't have a script for that particular outcome. So you say OK maybe they are right, but there is just one more test to be sure. So you explain that you that you can VPN into one of your employee's work computers which is on a completely different network, and this time ask them if they expect that you will see the same supposedly unique number on this other person's computer on a different network. They know the answer is YES but they can't admit it, so you'd think they would just hang up. Instead 3 out of 4 will start cursing at you at this point, with poorly accented swear words. It's amazing!

I scratched that, and it made my left foot jump up and down!

@James Thomas Rook Jr. You just couldn't resist could you?
BEHAVE!!!
 

I have! 1 Timothy 2:9. 
Of course what's ugly or immodest is a matter of societal opinion.

I disagree with Tight Pants Tony ... I have never seen ANYTHING in the Bible prohibiting drunk UGLY clothes.
I think (Anna ...) that it is just a political ploy by some grown man  who likes to play with dolls, and it is a conspiracy of amateur prophesy gone sour.
I did not notice the Brothers in Outta Here's above  photo with tight pants having  malfunctioning codpieces.
OF course ... , in the above photo, those Brother's socks look like home-made sin.

Oh dear, what happened to "an interesting take on politics, conspiracies, and prophecies" ? Obviously isn't that interesting .

Hmmmmm .... If I had observed you in a terribly wrinkled suit, I would have figured it was well tailored, but you just spent too much time in the pool.

I see. But this one is even better for those who do "cloud-based" witnessing on the Internet:
(Revelation 11:7-12) 7 When they have finished their witnessing, the wild beast that ascends out of the abyss will wage war with them and conquer them and kill them. 8 And their corpses will be on the main street of the great city . . . 11 After the three and a half days, spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell upon those who saw them. 12 And they heard a loud voice from heaven say to them: “Come up here.” And they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them.

You left?
 

I often wondered why military uniforms had so many patches, braids, medals, and other stuff on them.
Then I realized that men were decorated up like that so that people who "knew the code" could tell at a glance your entire history and experience level, and your motivation levels, and other factors ... like a ten page resume that could be evaluated in two seconds.
I see nothing wrong with announcing that someone is willing to Pioneer ... go out for "sustained combat".
It is hard work, and perhaps they will need encouragement or some physical assistance.
Give honor where it is due!
I would like to see something like the U.S. Congressional Medal of Honor or some other appropriate award for "I survived Bethel"....

Distilling many words into few words ... this quote seems to be where the "rubber meets the road".
Everything Arauna said may be true, partially true, false, or partially false. ... and for a CERTAINTY, none of us on this blog can do ANYTHING about any of it.
Nothing whatsoever ...... about any of it.
Zero ... zip .... Nada .... Goose eggs.
Somewhere in a parallel dimension known as "Toontown" Caleb and Sophia's pet laboratory mice are planning to take over the planet.
Will they succeed?
Stay tuned for breaking developments ....... or not !
