The Fuller Truth on the Consecrated

(10) The fuller truth on the consecrated, Spirit-enlightened but not Spirit-begotten elect class, developed here in the end of the Age after the closing of the door of entrance into the High Calling, was not yet due to be given in Bro. Russell's day. Nevertheless, the Lord did privilege him to point out this class—which we call the Youthful Worthies—as one that would eventually be rewarded with the Ancient Worthies (see, e.g., F 156, 157; Question Book, pp. 151, 152, 154, 156-158; Z 4836; 5761, col. 2 [in par. 2 he refers to them as a class]; comp. E 4, pp. 317-469).
