    Excellent research blondie except the 93 article was before the 95 change in the sheep and goat and not clear as current belief do to them not offically changing their view on w hen the judgement happens.

    And yes technically the watchtower teaches nobody is ressurected and nobody goes to heaven. You make say you intellectual property rights are annexed by the kingdom of heaven for propriety. And your body will be remade in any form from any substance seen fit which may or may not resemble you in any fashion.

    Will

    people be resurrected if they do not accept true Christianity now and die before the start of the great tribulation?

    Jehovah, along with his Son, will judge whether any who reject the Kingdom message and die prior to the outbreak of the great tribulation are classed as goats. Jesus said that the goats "will depart into everlasting cutting-off." Therefore, we can conclude that those who are determined by God to be goats will not receive a resurrection. They have a judgment similar to that of those who "undergo the judicial punishment of everlasting destruction" at the time of the great tribulation.?2 Thessalonians 1:9.

    While the judging as described in the parable is in the near future, even now something vital is taking place. We Christians are engaged in a lifesaving work of proclaiming a message that causes a division among people. (Matthew 10:32-39) Paul wrote: "For ?everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved.? However, how will they call on him in whom they have not put faith? How, in turn, will they put faith in him of whom they have not heard? How, in turn, will they hear without someone to preach?" (Romans 10:13, 14) Our public ministry is reaching people in over 230 lands with the name of God and his message of salvation. The anointed brothers of Christ are still spearheading this work. Some five million of the other sheep have now joined them. And people around the globe are responding to the message proclaimed by Jesus? brothers.

    Tripel A. your question is the watchtower is has no idea but in theory everyone who dies now will be ressurected because they did not live to judgement day. So they will have to be ressurecting to see the next judgement day in 1000 years. BTW this is almost exactly what the muslims believe.

    XQ,

    Does this mean that a JW that dies before Armaggedon has really wasted all their time in service, since I would be brought back just like them?

    From this could I ask the question, "When your friend is recreated from Jehovah's memory, will she take on the same body?"

    The friend remains dead in the grave. The friends body remains in the coffin.

    The friends body remains in the grave forever.

    A new body which never existed before is created. This new body is given a duplicate of the original persons memory. This new body believes that it is the original person (though it is not). The new body looks like the original person (who remains in the grave).

    It is more like cloning then resurrection. A clone is not a resurrected body, but a duplicate.
