Hi MadnessOfCrowds! I have often wondered about that myself and my opinion is that your concept is valid. Their have always been a controversy between God/Satan and believers/non-belivers. God has always had a remnant, Satan has always had a remnant. There is Christ/Antichrist and christians/antichristians, etc....the bible states that Satan (Antichrist) will be cast down to earth exalting himself as God and standing in the holy temple in Jerusalem. It also states that He will become ......"great with a small people" (small group of people). Also how the scriptures say that Satan keeps transforming himself as an "angel of light" (new light? the light keeps getting brighter?) hmmmm......Another thing is how they discredit the KJV bible saying that the prophets were illiterate or lacked reasoning and merely wrote down word-of-mouth information yet they print a bible "twin" with the same 66 books? Also, which religion is more ORGANIZED than JW ORGANIZATION? They promote hate instead of love. The bible says not to force religion on anyone and yet if you disagree with their doctrines or beliefs you are classified as evil. My opinion is that much of the doctrines and traditions are hypocritical to what the bible teaches and that is why they have to isolate members. You can tell a tree by its fruits.....or nuts!image
