How can protection from destruction at Armageddon be solely with the Jehovah's Witnesses when the Great Multitude is one that no man could number while the Jehovah's Witnesses put great effort into cooking statistics of how many JWs there are worldwide? The unscriptural scare tactics they use are blatantly insulting to anyone who can read a Bible. -

Congratulations.
You have documented paradox # 2,313,879 resulting from the Watchtower's muddled doctrine.

Haha, yeah I think I wondered that myself at some point. I justified it by including in the "great crowd" the unrighteous that would be resurrected, but I'm not sure if that has any basis in the bible or JW doctrine. -

I don't know about "no man" but the WT is pretty keen on numbering. O don't think there can be religion on Earth that is more tallied, recorded or counted. Yep, if the WT have anything to do with it that prophecy will never be fulfilled. -

Its amazing the way they go out of their way to unnecessarily discredit themselves: Beards, Membership tallies, the point seems to be to keep people too busy to read the bible for themselves, pursue an education,etc., just keep them as dumbed down as possible. But they can't play Jah and the People forever. Time will tell.

Not possible.
In response one of the elders said to me: “These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they and where did they come from?” So right away I said to him: “My lord, you are the one who knows.” And he said to me: “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. - Rev 7:13,14
The resurrected ones don't appear until after Armageddon.
Not if the gathering is before the resurrection
Correct.

I wonder if Jehoober would destroy all those people who donated blood? After all, the blood fractions (like factor 8 for hemopheliacs) are used to treat Jehovah's Witnesses every day.
