I believe the elect are believers who run the race with all their might until the end, striving to be like Jesus. They don't have their own agendas for their own selfish desires. They live only for Jesus. They love God and Jesus with all their heart, soul, strength and mind. And they love their neighbors as themselves, even their enemies.

I know that most JWs and BS would not agree on this. Definitely not JWs. |

| I do not know a lot about them. I do not agree with a lot of things either in the B.S. religion. But to each his own. |

I know a lot about them. I am surrounded by them. I joined them for 5 years and had deep fellowship with them, and with several major denominations. |

That's what I came to believe. It seems that wherever the organization, corruption is the result. |

Now that right there is the absolute truth. Why? Because any earthly organization that claims that they are the "gateway to god", becomes just like that Tower of Babel organization that claimed that they were the "gates of god". YHWH named such organizations "confusion", For they do not worship YWHW in spirit and in truth... but worship through an idol... the very organizations that they themselves have built. They are NOT the "gateway to God". There is only ONE gateway to God... YHWH's Son, Jesus Christ. Anything that even remotely tries to replace him is against him... for it acts "instead of Christ", or "in place of Christ". Therefore, it is Anti-Christ.
YHWH only has ONE organization... "heavenly Jerusalem". All those approaching that spiritual organization are never brought to disappointment... nor do they reside in "confusion", Babylon the Great. Instead, they have over themselves ONE leader, Jesus Christ.
May you both be blessed from YHWH and his Son for discerning for yourselves what "earthly organizations" are. "Confusion". |

May God bless you mightily to reach out to like-minded servants to encourage them for YHWH and Jesus' glory. |
