   "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to   
   His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the   
   resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible   
   and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who   
   are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be   
   revealed in the last time."  1 Peter 1:3-5   
      
   The jw vatican says the 144000 in Rev. are the 1st class jw who will rule   
   over the jw 2nd class in the new earthly kingdom.  which is to be setup   
   after all non-jw are murdered when Christ returns.   
      
   That doesn't square with the 1 Peter above as to going to heaven, not one   
   mention of a jw vatican role; which is yet to be invented 1875 years in the   
   future.   
      
   It does not really square either with who John in Rev. says the 144000   
   are.
