Scriptures teach not that Christ will return in secret, but that He will return with a shout, with<br />
<strong>the</strong> voice <strong>of</strong> an archangel, and with <strong>the</strong> trumpet <strong>of</strong> God (1 Thessalonians 4:16).<br />
The New Testament does not teach two forms <strong>of</strong> salvation, one for 144,000 (a number used in<br />
Revelation 7:1-8 to symbolize <strong>the</strong> Church as <strong>the</strong> New Israel), and ano<strong>the</strong>r, lesser salvation for<br />
everyone else. Finally, it is evident that Russell was a less than honest man, who used religion<br />
as a means <strong>of</strong> personal enrichment. We believe that <strong>the</strong> soul is eternal (1 Thessalonians 5:3,<br />
Ecclesiastics <strong>12</strong>:5).<br />
