Gen. 6: shows us that only two of each kind of animals were taken into the ark. Gen. 7: increased the number to 14. The 12 extra animals of each kind represent the 144,000
The Society states that the 24 elders throughout Rev. are the 144,000 in their heavenly places. They are 2 groups of 12 and not one group of 24
Twelve is a divinely established number by
Jehovah, not 24. The Society says that the 4 angels with the 24 elders are cherubs. In Rev. 4:8 it shows that the four angels have 6 wings. Only the seraphim have 6 wings. Isa. 6:2
The 2 groups are the ones that sang a new song. Satan and his group are a third of 3 groups and not a third of all the angels. The proper number of animals leads us to understanding that only the 144,000 are going to heaven to replace the fallen angells. Only the 144,000 as heirs can master the song of the 24 elders.
It is ironic that Daniel Sydlik was the GB member that told me to write a book in 1987. In 1988 I
sent him 12 cobies to give to the other members. He told me he would not be my distributor. When I discussed the right count with lyman Swingle he said, maybe some of the animals were pregnant, then there would be 7 1/2 or 14 1/2 and so on.He later said, he hoped that Daniel had his tongue in his cheek when he told you to write that book.
Please write me for a copy of the e-mail we are sending to active and Ex-Witnesses. It explains much about the animals and how they were used by Jehovah to represent the fallen angels bodies. Also how they portray the Jews and the Gentiles.
