Hi Heathen,
Perry I don't think they believe the door to christ was closed to people prior to 1935 just that the anointing ended .
Your comment is interesting. The two parts to your statement are the exact same thing. Read it carefully. This is the artificial division that the WT conveniently uses to make themself a false christ. To deny the annointing is to deny Christ and to make him a liar. Can you see how that teaching makes Christ a persona non grata Heathen?
My charge was:
.... we are talking about people who have rejected the entire New Testament with all its promises from God (it was written to apply to only the 144,000 according to WT dogma) on practically nothing other than the fact that the WT says that it only applies to them. To believe this would require that God turn his back on the documented millions of Christians that lived and were martyred prior to 1935 when the door to God through the mediator Christ was officially closed according to the WT.
I never said nor meant to imply that, in the minds of JW's that the "door to Christ" was closed in 1935. To the contrary, how could that "door" be closed when in the WT view, all Christ did was to provide some divine cosmic legal loophole whereby people might have a chance to prove their worthiness to God by means of the system of decrees, edicts, customs, changing doctrines and false end time predictions and prophecies so lovingly provided by the real door to God.... the WTBTS?
Are you getting this Heathen? A door to Christ became insignificant, inappropriate, and wholly unnecessary with regard of the new light that Christ had abdicated all his earthly authority to these men who, as I pointed out must assume that Christ turned his back on the millions of Christians who lived and were martyred for their love of Him during the previous nineteen centuries in order to make room for the few, the chosen, self proclamed channel of communication of God on earth. They falsely proclaimed that Christ's promises were limited to 144,000 souls and to only themselves at that time; and in so doing made Christ out to be a liar when he told Martha at John 11: 25 - " I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies". Where did all the people go who believed in Christ in excess of the 144,000 and were martyred prior to 1935 ?
So, my charge above was in no way related to a door to Christ, but as I stated a "door to God". The true Lord Jesus states in John 10: 9 " I am the door". God would not erect another door in order to gather all things to himself would he? Especially stating that there is but one mediator between God and man.... a man Christ Jesus.
Are you starting to see with your heart now Heathen what I'm getting at? What does it mean to open the "door" of Christ? What will it lead to? Could it be to our father who is in no other need of a channel of communication other than his Son the mediator and door that leads to his bosom and family.... our rightful heritage?
Heathen are you understanding that Jesus didn't lie when he said at John 10:1 that - "he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way is a theif and a robber"?
Heathen did you leave the falsely erected door because you were as Jesuse stated "A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers? Are you a sheep Heathen?
May the peace and blessings of God be with you forever.
