Let's take the madness a step further. Only 144,000 get to go to heaven. At the end of the first century, there were over 1,000,000 Christain's who would have had the hope of going to heaven. At the end of the 1930's, there were about 90,000 Jdubs who would have had the heavenly hope. To be anointed at that time I would hope that they were at least 20 years old, so they are now dead. How many anointed were there between the first century up until the time that Jesus chose the Bible Students to be his true followers?
I guess there were slim pickings for God not to pick 144,000 out of the million first century Christians and then have another 90,000 in the 1930's to pick from and now we still have 18,000 left of the earth.
Only JDubs high on Watchtower crack would say no problem.
