I hate to say this, but now that you've got me thinking about it...
I know a lot of awfully nice Mormons! I've been impressed with them. Very family oriented.
Hmmmmmm
Well, I've said Jesus sent out "ten slaves" and not just one, so we should expect that other groups would ultimately produce some fruits, maybe not the strict doctrinal fruits, but other fruits such as charity, sincerity, etc.
Still, the Kingdom Hall always seemed a place of refuge from the world for me and so many of the brothers are truly adorable, honest, and certainly as comparably upright in the world as many we might find scattered throughout other religions.
I think past the witnesses, who have a special commission, I believe, as the "temple organization" it's pretty much an individual thing as far as God's approval I would think. Lots of anointed ones aren't witnesses.

Thanks for sharing.
Anyway, it will have to work out tha way now becaues the witnesses have ceased to become any "example" to anything for the world now, unfortunately. Maybe how to lose Jehovah's favor...
Cheers,
