AUSTRALIA has been given a rare insight into the
workings of the Jehovah’s Witness Church, which believes only 144,000
people will get to heaven and they are top of the list. A member of the secretive church’s New York-based governing body
Geoffrey Jackson is giving evidence at a child sex abuse royal
commission hearing in Sydney.
On Friday Mr Jackson, quoting the Bible, including from the gospel of Matthew, Deuteronomy, and the Book Of Revelations, explained that the church believes the world is now in its “last days” and seven reputable men were anointed by the Holy Spirit to be the equivalent of Jesus’s disciples.
