  The Searcher

  Isn't it very disturbing that the Org relies on facts and figures and statistics to "prove" its position as God's earthly organization, and yet they can't even do simple arithmetic when quoting Matthew 19:28 - "Truly I say to YOU, In the re-creation, when the Son of man sits down upon his glorious throne, YOU who have followed me will also yourselves sit upon twelve throne......."

  In this verse, nothing is mentioned about 144,000 thrones - only twelve. (see Rev. 21:14)

  In fact, nowhere in the original Greek does it say that 144,000 will either "sit on thrones" or will be "kings".

  Doubters or lurkers, check out Rev. 5:10 in the Kingdom Interlinear Translation - the word used is "reign" (as in princes in Psalm 45) and they will be living upon the earth, not over it!
