No one has gone to heaven prior to Christ
(John 3:13) . . .Moreover, no man has ascended into heaven but he that descended

(Revelation 7:9-10) . . .After these things I saw, and, look! a great crowd, which no
man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues,
standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there
were palm branches in their hands. And they keep on crying with a loud voice, saying:
“Salvation [we owe] to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”
Originally posted by stellspalfieOh they have a much lower chance than that - though you correctly accounted for those JWs who have died you haven't yet accounted for those who are yet to be born. Indeed perhaps Robbie and Co. might wish to petition God for the end of the world to take place immediately. Their chances of getting into the magic playground are getting smaller with every day that passes.
