I hear you saying it is works which save a person.* Also I hear you saying as long as a person does the works and sides with the governing body with what they are right about that is all a person must do. It doesn't matter if they are wrong about anything. But for us it means condemnation to be wrong about anything you believe you are right about.
*pray, read, study daily, attend meetings, go door to door and do as the govening body commands
James 2:17 says: 14-17
14 Of what benefit is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but he does not have works? That faith cannot save him, can it? 15 If a brother or a sister is lacking clothing and enough food for the day, 16 yet one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but you do not give them what they need for their body, of what benefit is it? 17 So, too, faith by itself, without works, is dead.
Now, the governing body does not "command" anything. They are fellow workers in Jehovah, not bosses, lords, leaders, or superiors. They are of the annointed however. They are of the 144,000. They are just like you and me. Simple everyday people whom Jehovah has chosen as part of the firstfruits of mankind. Your denegration of them is unwarranted, as it most likely comes from the false teachings of false religions. Read Galations 5:19-21 where it describes some of the works of the flesh. It reads:
19 Now the works of the flesh are plainly seen, and they are sexual immorality, uncleanness, brazen conduct, 20 idolatry, spiritism, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, dissensions, divisions, sects, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and things like these. I am forewarning you about these things, the same way I already warned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.
You see that sects (in the KJV it reads
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.) are works of the flesh. Sects, divisions of religion are not tolerated by God the Almighty, Jehovah. Your take on scriptures does appear to come from those sects of Christianity (actually called Christendom, a melding of Christian and pagan beliefs). It is wise to ignore religions, and to rely solely on the inspired word of God for ACCURATE information. Of course, if accurate information isn't what you seek, then we have nothing more to discuss.
