The Founding Fathers were Masons, Christianity. In Fact there are a couple of them wearing the Masonic apron in paintings
(Washigton, Ben Franklin) an idea taken from Solomon's Temple. The Melchizedek Priesthood is the authority of Temples which Christ is the High Priest of it over all. Today's Masons do not hold this priesthood. They are wearing a shadow of what was true in Jehovah/Christ's day of Temples.
Jehovah Witnesses do not believe that Christ is a God. The 144,000 are servants (I think missionaries) twelve thousand taken from each of the twelve tribes in the last days during the wrath of God who will be sealed in their foreheads, (sanctified finitely) so they can go into all the world find and save people without suffering the harm of severe weather and chaos of of these coming up times. Don't forget the Lost Ten Tribes, the Lord has not brought out from the North country yet, they are still lost. Johns vision shows a multitude in heaven which cannot be numbered. This is not a description of 144,000.
