Another interesting aspect of JW's is they take the 144,000 mentioned in Revelation to mean that only 144,000 JW's will make it to heaven. My older brother is a JW and is trying to live a sanctified life so he can be one of the 144,000. However, what he and other JW's ignore is that in Revelation we are told the 144,000 are all virgins who have never lied. I know for a fact my brother is not a virgin (he has been married 4 times and has 4 children) and has lied.
Hey I'm not trying to prove that Jehovahs witnesses are Christians, I was just commenting on how I had come across the 1914/1948 line of thought before. I think its interesting that Jehovahs witnesses arent the only cult who believe that our generation may see the remainder of the events prophecised in Revelations.
