50 But I tell you this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s Kingdom, nor does corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Look! I tell you a sacred secret: We will not all fall asleep in death, but we will all be changed,i 52 in a moment, in the blink of an eye, during* the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound,j and the dead will be raised up incorruptible, and we will be changed.

Post #11So, what DO you know about this topic in regard to the 19th, the 20th, and the 21st centuries of the history of the Jehovah's Witnesses organization?JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Sun Jun 04, 2023 9:52 amSkeptical wrote: ↑Sun Jun 04, 2023 4:27 amI see. So, how many JWs who have passed away already have gotten instantaneously converted into heavenly spirit beings in the twinkling of an eye?JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Sun Jun 04, 2023 4:22 amJehovahs Witnesses are no different from most mainstream religions in our belief that all spirit anointed Christians go to heaven when they die. The final calling however of those alive when Jesus returns has not happened as we believe that event (the return of Christ) is a future event.
I don't know.

If there anything else revealed in scripture about what happens in heaven, I can share the Jehovah’s Witness understanding; I cannot go beyond the things written.
