As I said, they keep using the same trick. “Now the world is REALLY about to end. Quick! Join my sect!”. Jehovah’s Witnesses predicted the end of times multiple times. They claimed that only 144,000 people can go to heaven because at the beginning it looked like a number of members they will never achieve. Once they had 144,000 they had to invent some other story about second class in heaven with more places or something.
Meanwhile grifters have been predicting the exact date and time (and making money off those predictions) for centuries.

They claimed 144,000 because that’s the number of “true believers” described in the Bible in Revelation who are rewarded with Heaven.
