Saved by Baptism and the Start of the G.T.

    So, the official teaching is that baptism saves JW's from Armageddon (1 Peter 3:21), in the same way that the ark saved Noah (Jesus - not sure why Jesus needs saving, though), his wife (the remnant - WT Aug 15, 1990) and the six others (the other sheep - WT Sep 1, 1989).

    Jehovah himself shut the door of the ark, and after seven days, the rain started to fall. This shutting of the door corresponds to the start of the G.T., afterwhich no one can become baptized and saved, but must live with their personal agony throughout the G.T., knowing that they were this close to being inside the ark.

    Now, let's say that the G.T. starts on the third Saturday of April, 13:00 (1:00 PM) Greenwich Time, and the G.T. begins in full swing earthwide simultaneously.

    Those who were at their S.A.D. that Saturday morning, and were dunked prior to 13:00 (1:00 PM) Greenwich Time are inside the ark.

    What about those a few time zones later?

    Since the concorde is retired, they are out of luck, just like all of Noah's living relatives, parents--chainsaws to cut your way in were not available yet.

    Noah must have burned all of the ropes, ladders, cranes, etc., so that the unbelievers couldn't climb in the windows.

    And why did the fallen sons of God not clear out a floor or two of the ark, and haul in a bunch of girls and women to keep the sex-party going?

    The physics have been worked out, and the floodwaters must have benn quite hot, fallen from that hights, so, may be they got stuck in a hot tub-like scene, after all rain was a novelty, hot rain--add sex, --why bother the goats?
