Good points Sea Breeze
I had discussion elsewhere with someone I think holds on to some doctrinal JW beliefs. It was around suicide and Watchtower (he left due to lack of love and his disapproval of shunning, which is absolutely understandable).
I (and some other ex JWs) said that many JWs , especially the DF, think that suicide prior to Armageddon is the safest option to ensure they gain the paradise. That getting into paradise may be time-sensitive, may be contingent on when you die. In other words those that die even 5 minutes before Armageddon will gain paradise, whereas being alive during Armageddon you are at least taking a chance that you will be killed if god deems you not to be a good enough witness.
This chap said that Christendom’s doctrine is worse in that regard, in fact hypocritical, since if they’re going to heaven surely it makes more sense to kill yourself now and go straight there?*
I think your points drive our idea home far better. That for witnesses, death = justification since by dying you’re all square with your sin debt. In fact that is the reason that drives many despairing witnesses to feel safer in death.
*since the Bible doesn’t actually pass judgement on suicide.
