    w93 11/1 p. 32 - "Today, there has to exist a people, not just scattered individuals, who fit Jesus’ description of true Christians and who make God’s name manifest."

    And here was I thinking that true Christians had to proclaim Jesus' name!!!

    Matthew 10:18; Mark 13:9; Luke 24:48; John 1:15; John 5:37; John 8:18; John 15:26, 27; Acts 1:8; Acts 9:15; Acts 10:39; Acts 10:43; Acts 13:31; Acts 22:15; Acts 22:20; Acts 23:11; Acts 26:16; 1 Corinthians 1:6; 1 Timothy 2:6, 7; 2 Timothy 1:8; 1 John 5:9; Revelation 1:9; Revelation 12:17; Revelation 17:6; Revelation 19:10; Revelation 20:4

    How could the faithful evil slave get something so important, so wrong?

    The kingdom of God is not a visible or observable entity. It is a spiritual kingdom made up of all who are indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God. ROMANS 8:9

    This disqualifies Watchtower's version of the so called great crowd of other sheep.

    Is that new version of the "No True Scotsman " Fallacy ?

    Good point. Also, since the Great Crowd are not justified (declared righteous) they have no explanation on how they plan to escape the wrath of God:

    Romans 5: 1 & 9

    Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

    9. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
