    Burn!!!

    I ain't 'fraid of no chasm!

    They would always trot out Korah, Dathan, and Abiram when they detected any sign of dissension, wouldn't they?

    LOL.

    The same word in Greek is use to describe where the "great crowd" stand before God as the 144,000 do in Revelation. Revelation continuously uses one word that means "santuary" referring to the metaphorical temple, which most take to mean heaven. No "earthly courtyards" nonsense.

    For the WTS heaven is a restricted, gated country club. The earthly class must come in by the servants entrance and no using the golf course or the pool.

    Isn't it always about control with these guys?

    Hi Sylvia,

    Once again, their teaching clearly contradicts the bible.

    Mark 15:38 (New International Version)

    38 The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

    Hebrews 4:16 (New International Version)

    16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

    Hebrews 10:18-22 (New International Version)

    18 And where these have been forgiven, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin. 19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.

    All the best,

    Stephen

    The beauty of it is that it keeps them occupied and in the one place - imagine if they were let loose - i's bad enough that they get to talk door to door, but imagine if they were without religion and in the public realm - it'd be like the Taliban let loose out of Pakistan.

    The wt society plays a role in keeping certain personality types contained to some extent, but unfortunately it impacts on their relatives and others who are exposed to the implications of their desires.

    It's all a scam. No one is actually going to attain that position. The whole idea of going to heaven, or living forever on earth via supernatural means, is all a scam intended to get people to love a God that is, in fact, totally unlovable.

    Let them have their delusion. When they die, they will realize that it is all a scam.
