It is all over the net that in 1935 Rutherford got a flash of light stating that his followers would start to have an earthly hope. The great multitude that is. And that prior to that there were some classes of earthly salvation but it did not appear to be his followers that would be involved in that. If this is so then why in the Millions now living will never die book written in 1920 was he giving the hope that people could live on earth with the ancient worthies in 1925. This book was written for his followers. Does anyone have any good references and or info regarding this. All help greatly appreciated.

Great Multitude and Heaven (scans needed)
by golden age intoday in the wt literature, it is very clear that most people will stay on earth and the the 144k will go to heaven, but in review of the older literature it is very difficult to understand exactly what they believed.
they had 4 classes the 144k who would go to heaven, a great company who would also be a heavenly class, but they also had two earthly classes.
who were part of these earthly classes?

I See what you are saying about the 4 classes. But that still does not make it clear that the wt said prior to 1935 that all of their members would go to heaven. In the book Millions now living never die, they basically are telling people to look foreward to living a life on earth in paradise which was supposed to be in 1925. Therefore they were telling there members they had an earthly hope. Does anyone have any info on this.

Today in the wt literature, it is very clear that most people will stay on earth and the the 144k will go to heaven, but in review of the older literature it is very difficult to understand exactly what they believed. They had 4 classes the 144k who would go to heaven, a great company who would also be a heavenly class, but they also had two earthly classes. Who were part of these earthly classes? Were they people of other churches? Does any one have any references and or info.
Apperently through the history in 1935 rutherford changed the calling of the great crowd to an earthly hope. Does any one have a scan of a watchtower article explaining that they used to think they went to heaven now new light has changed thi
Are there any scans showing something like ===join our orginization and you will go to heaven=== from the old literature (like today they have hundreds of pamphlets and mags saying --join and you will live on earth forever---)
I have had difficulty coming up with info and scans regarding this, all help appreciated, thanks.

The celebration of christmas has changed, It was once thought to be very appropriate to celebrate, and it was even suggested in many wt publications to give WT books as gifts.
Additionally the society thought the jesus died on a cross, the earlier watchtowers all have crosses on the cover of them and many old books have pictures of jesus on a cross.
Additionally, the watchtower taught that the Great pyramid in egypt was gods stone witness and they later changed there view claming it was designed by satan.

paradise earth vs heaven
by golden age ini was wondering on many web sites the statement that the jws did not believe in paradise earth until 1935 is found.
becasue apperently some new light came to rutherford in that year and it was announced at the washington dc convention at that time.
so why then did rutherford in the 1920s write the book that millions now living will never die and state that the old testament saints (abraham and isacc, ect) would not have and heavenly hopes and would once again live on earth.
