The Watchtower organization teaches Jehovah’s Witnesses that the men it appoints as elders are appointed by holy spirit.[1]
Because Watchtower appointed elders are appointed by holy spirit then Watchtower teaches they are to be obeyed by children.[2]
If children obey Watchtower appointed elders then Watchtower teaches that these children will be happy.[3]
Here is the reality[4]:
Holy spirit has nothing whatsoever to do with Watchtower's appointment of elders. That is, unless a person thinks holy spirit has something to do with Watchtower appointing a serial child molester as one of its elders.
Maybe the Watchtower organization should explain its theology to all the "happy" children sexually molested by its appointed elder by the name of Gonzalo Campos who was molesting them prior to and during his tenure as a Watchtower appointed man.
