Answer 1

The faithful and discreet slave class was identified by Jesus as those being fully obedient.
This could even include people down through the ages who have properly folowed the Bible.
But only those people would personally know it. On this matter no one can judge.
FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE

When answering the apostles’ question concerning his future presence and the conclusion of the existing system of things, Jesus Christ included a parable, or illustration, dealing with a “faithful and discreet slave” and an “evil slave.” The faithful slave’s master appointed him over his domestics, or household servants, to provide them their food. If approved at his master’s coming (evidently from some trip), the slave would be rewarded by being placed over the master’s entire property.—Mt 24:3, 45-51.
The ' slave' class today guide people along the right way to worship God

Answer 2

Sounds like you are a babe to bible truths, but here you are asking for meat instead of milk. We have to take into consideration the "appointed times of the nations."

Luke 21:24 and they will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the nations, until the appointed times of the nations are fulfilled.

Acts 1:6-7 When, now, they had assembled, they went asking him: "Lord, are you restoring the kingdom to Israel at this time?" 7 He said to them: "It does not belong to you to get knowledge of the times or seasons which the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction;

1 Th 5:1 Now as for the times and the seasons, brothers, you need nothing to be written to you. 2 For you yourselves know quite well that Jehovah's day is coming exactly as a thief in the night. 3 Whenever it is that they are saying: "Peace and security!" then sudden destruction is to be instantly upon them just as the pang of distress upon a pregnant woman; and they will by no means escape.

In other words according to the above scriptures, these times were yet to come, after the apostles died.


Dan 8 13..."How long will the vision be of the constant (feature) and of the transgression causing desolation, to make both (the) holy place and (the) army things to trample on?" 14 So he said to me: "Until two thousand three hundred evenings (and) mornings; and (the) holy place will certainly be brought into its right condition."


Dan 2:31-45 describes a vision of a tree being cut down and banded for a certain time.

What I am trying to show with these scriptures is that there was an appointed time when the nations would trample on true religion. In view of the atrocities in the middle ages, much of it under the direction of the Catholic church, we can see how this prophecy was fulfilled. True religion (the tree) began to flourish again after the appointed times, and the faithful and discreet slave class began establishing again a congregation approved by God. International Bible Students, how fitting a group to accomplish such a task. All of these people had a heavenly hope so would have comprised the faithful and discreet slave.

The physical temple at Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 C.E., never to be build again. Jesus also said at his accension that we would no longer behold his physical being again, so it is with the temple at Jerusalem. At this point, it is spiritual.

Answer 3

Adam's Rib gave u the answer.
Christ said true Christianity would disappear for a time,
then @ the time of the end,
true Christianity would raise up again,
and more ppl will be brought to the mountain of Jehovah.
I learned this from 1 of the little pocket size Bibles from the Gideons. Its only the Christian Greek Scriptures.
