one of the benefits of justification is eternal life for believers.
i found an interesting passage from the wt, june 15, 1974 which reads:.
"it is to the spirit anointed christians who will rule in that kingdom that most of the christian-greek scriptures is directed, including the promise of everlasting life.
Menrov and Joen...Yes, it looks like some the other sheep will survive Armageddon while others who die before that event will be raised to prove themselves, along with the survivors, worthy of eternal life by remaining faithful during the entire Millennium.
No guarantees till the 1000 years are completed.

Does that mean that the other sheep cannot claim to have the gift of eternal life?
Do you know of other passages in WT literature that address this issue?

Hey Waton
Good question.
If it's about organizational policies of enforcement, then won't the courts have to force a rewrite of the secret Shepherd the flock book?
What will happen to separation of church and state. Next certain scriptures may be banned from being read in public. I'm sure Muslims will be watching this can of worms with interest.

I can't imagine the courts deciding that people must say hello to people who say hello to them. How can a court legislate loving behavior or enforce, "Do unto your family members what they want done to them". You might as well add, adults must accept blood transfusions whether they want them or not if family members complain. I can't see what the legislation against shunning would look like. Any ideas?
the most powerful love in the universe is unconditional love.. a love that has no requirements or conditions.
no actions are necessary to receive it.. this love is all around us and can be easily seen.
watch any mother with its new born baby.
<<I believe we are all gods>>
Now, I'm sure I heard that somewhere before.

Personally, I think this case is doomed to fail.
Members will claim that they shun of their own free will. The Organization will say JWs are complying with scripture, not with their directions. Besides, who has the right to tell members they cannot ignore someone or insist that they at least say a greeting to people they do not wish to greet. Ex-members can not force friends and family to love them in the ways that they wish.
Case closed (IMHO)
unbelievable admissions.. freddie confesses he fell for his own propaganda.. https://youtu.be/fkjw-r9oitk.
Here is an interview with his Nephew Raymond Franz
i was never a jw but i lurk in this forum occasionally, trying to rescue some family.
i will spare you those details.. jw.org and jwfacts are there with youtubes out the wazoo but i would appreciate your thought on this.. i know there are contradictions plenty but this is foundational, blatant and current.
i know they typically just blow off.
What is the current teaching re 2018?
The anointed dead were raised to heavenly life in the spring and the churches of Christendom were rejected in the fall of 2018. Is this still current Watchtower mythology?
in the june 2016 issue of cmaj, dr. hebert published an article, survival without transfusion is possible but not recommended for all, that critiques dr. aryeh shander's research study outcomes of protocol-driven care of critically ill severely anemic patients for whom blood transfusion is not an option, published in critical care medicine 2016. .

Rather gruesome Terry. My Son teaches a "weird tales" literature course at college. This would fit right in there I believe. I'll ask him.
