True dat.

In other words: the Society maintains that Jesus' crucified body has to stay dead so Michael can be an angel again. But that's not the only reason the Society gives for keeping Jesus' crucified body perpetually deceased.

Another explanation is given on page 237 of the April 15, 1963 issue of the Watchtower magazine; where it's stated:

"If Jesus were to take his body of flesh, blood, and bones to heaven and enjoy them there, what would this mean? It would mean that there would be no resurrection of the dead for anybody. Why not? Because Jesus would be taking his sacrifice off God's altar."

But the Bible says that were Jesus' crucified body still dead, then God would have no basis upon which to justify letting people off.

†. Rom 4:25 . . He was delivered up for the sake of our trespasses and was raised up for the sake of declaring us righteous.

†. 1Cor 15:17 . .Further, if Christ has not been raised up, your faith is useless; you are yet in your sins.

If perchance Prince went out believing Christ's crucified body is still dead; and its remains squirreled away somewhere on earth in a condition and a location known only to God; then he went out an unforgiven man. I don't think I have to tell you what that means.

Prince's former drug dealer tells how the legend spent $40,000 at a time on six-month supplies of Dilaudid pills and Fentanyl patches - highly addictive opioid pain killers - for 25 years

...Doctor D said that the religious star - who converted to the Jehovah's Witness faith in 2001 - would often talk about God during their meetings.

He would even try to convert the drug dealer and invited him to religious gatherings.

'We were never close friends - I was his drug dealer that's it,' Doctor D said.

'We got along well he was a nice guy - I wouldn't say anything bad about him.

'He never confided in me about his love life or anything but he often used to preach about God to me.

'Maybe it was a form of guilt - I think he felt guilty he was buying drugs from a drug dealer so he'd start conversing about God and the Spirit.

'He'd say, 'You know there's only one God and we're all here for a reason - to serve God.'

'And he'd say, 'We have to be good people it's important that we try to be good people,' he had a thing about being a good person.

'He asked me to go to meetings with him - I'm not sure exactly what kind of meetings they were - but it was some kind of religious thing.

'You learn when you're selling drugs to someone just to listen and go along with them.

'I'd pretend I'd go to the meeting and then next time I saw him I'd just be like 'oh no sorry I couldn't make it.

'That's all he really talked about.' ...

If this is true, then he really needed to learn from Michael Jackson that no good would come out of that.

I don't think he was at the time of death. His mom and older sister are active JW's tho.

I thought I remember people talking about him showing up at their door with the other JWs at times.

I'm not sure I believe this story, it could be true, but c'mon! The guy is a drug dealer!

Hmmmm, good point, Susan - Why would he even admit to being a drug dealer in the first place?

If a person is truly and sincerely seeking God but gets caught up in a false religion such as JW's, will God receive them into the kingdom based on their heart's desire to know and connect with him, or if they don't come through Jesus, they don't get to enter in?

No...the Lord says those who seek Him find Him....not all seeking really want to find the true and living God. Some of them know by Holy Spirit conviction how their live will be changed and do not want it so they begin to seek a 'god' that won't require that of them.

I was thinking on this today...our definition of good is not like God's. Jesus told the rich young ruler who called Him 'Good' there is none good but God..what was He saying? Goodness by man's POV is filthy rags...

We don't like to speculate that a 'good person' by our definition would go to Hell but apart from Jesus, it is so...so we should speculate...not because it makes any difference to the one lost but because it is necessary we keep telling the world Jesus is the ONLY answer for sin and sinners are condemned already without HIM>
