It’s like if you went to church, and the vicar said:
“You know what? I don’t fancy delivering this sermon with moral guidance. Lets just sing 10 hymns in a row.”
… Y’all never had that happen?
“The Lord has other plans for the service today, so we’re going to continue in this state of worship.”
I grew up JW, and their meetings were very structured and organized. They do sometimes show videos and such, but a congregation is organized around not one pastor or anything but a whole group of them, any of who could do the main Sunday surmon (and I have seen subs often enough). They also have “ministerial servants” who are I guess basically elders(pastors I guess?) in training, and they often handled a lot of stuff too.
That makes sense. This church was ‘non-denominational’, which meant that if they could just have the church band play a jam session and still make money, they would.
And everyone would be fine with it because that’s obviously what the Lord wanted him to do.
The man who talks to God says sing hymns? Cool. Now he says have some kool-aid? Cool cool.
Truly this power could never be misused.
