This cult who thought at some point that all of them were going to go to heaven realized that their numbers were growing therefore they had to create another group to explain the delay on their own rapture and their predicted end of the world.
They then created a separation of categories... the originals, the old ones, in other words the anointed, a selected groups that you cant be part of because only 144,000 are selected, so they had to come up with all sort of excuses why the end was not coming. So many explanations to Jesus words.
They were buying time, the end had to come at any moment, 1941... 1975... before the end of the century.... but at the last moment this cultish doctrine back fired on them... the number of the originals kept growing... these "divinely" (self) appointed group who wrote countless letter of bible interpretation to Gods headquarters kept increasing. Many of the Great Crowd would approach any member of the Anointed one for Bible counsel and help.... they would skip the Elders and the Central brain and would go directly to these...
But the number of the Kings instead of declining continued to grow.... they became a problem that the Real Rulers of the cult had no idea of to take care of. So they started a campaign of libel against the very same members of the once ruling Anointed class.. They claimed insanity of the majority of the new ones... by putting it in writting they created doubt within the Great Crowd.
How could they now approac an anointed one... how could they tell who is real and who is mentaly imbalanced.... Doubt took control... and once there is doubt now they can asest the last blow on the Anointed problem by removing their FDS status from them... By keeping the FDS status they gain control of the crowd... the great crowd... They put an end to the many letters from the anointed and their opinion... they also control the source of information... now there is no other source but from the GB and that is it.
They got rid of their infamous 144,000 number and its increased growth. they got rid of the mathematical equation that would prove their doctrine insane.... they regained control of the emergency situation in which they find themselves in.
They bought extra time to extend the end of the time of the end.
and they critize Hitler!
