  up until the purges that took place at brooklyn bethel in 1980, ed dunlap had served as the registrar and one of the senior instructors of the gilead school.

  dunlap was one of the victims of the witch hunts that took place in 1980 and was disfellowshipped for "apostasy", along with members of the translation department.

  in raymond franzs book crisis of conscience, ray franz discusses ed dunlaps experience in detail.

  Can someone explain Paradise earth for me.

  my mother has brought up this issue a few times lately and i'm a bit confused.

  actually she says she's confused about it and doesn't know what to believe; that what she reads in the bible contradicts what the elders say.. she said that if you die before armegeddon you become an angel, so i assume that they will never marry or have children?

  if you and your current spouse both survive armegeddon you continue to be married and have children?.

  The "other sheep" are tested for their entire life time before armageddon, then for 1000 plus years afterward, with the possibility of losing everything only removed

  after proving faithful in the final 'loyalty" test. Then they can live on earth forever.

  The "annointed" on the other hand only have to prove faithful to death this side of armageddon(for some only a small number of years) and get immortality and a kingship in the heavens.

  How can anyone say that "all you are brothers" on an equal playing field, and not a first and second prize situation.

  l was shocked to find it was Rutherford who came up with this heavenly reward for only 144000 humans,

  Russell had all christians going to heaven, so at least he got that bit right.

  steve2 made some comments about a 10 year old post i made, and i will present them.

  although there are numerous typos that could be corrected, his post was much more direct.

  : i can see why you've pitched this long and absurdly hard-nosed account at a christian readership.
