According to the "New Light " on sheep and goats, NOBODY is judged as unworthy of a resurrection if he dies before Christ sits down on his glorious throne. The judging is done in situ not in retrospect. Yet the WT 05/01/05 p. 22 says to JWs:
"We realize that should we die before Armageddon, a continued course of conduct displeasing to Jehovah could put us in the same position as those who have no prospect of a resurrection."
So a non witness in this time of the end can murder, rape, mug, child abuse, blaspheme, scream "NO" to the JW at his door, and if he dies 5 seconds before Christ sits down, he has not been judged a goat and will be resurrected (and have no choice but to believe)
Yet a JW who displeases Jehovah (actually just doesn't do exactly what the WTS says - ie: MORE more MONEY $$££$$££$$££$$££ - lie to themselves etc) says, will die forever.
Why? They say that only those alive are judged as goats!! Except dead JWs, of course. I smell Matthew 23:15 - "Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you traverse sea and dry land to make one proselyte and when he becomes one you make him a subject for Gehennah twice as much as yourselves."
What will happen to all those who died in the 1950s with no prospect of a resurrection in the new light of that day?
Do you think I'm right - what have I missed?
