  the good news that gods kingdom will soon rule over earth.its mankinds only hope

  Many Evangelical denominations teach this PMJ, not just the Jehovah's Witnesses. Why aren't those other sects considered The Truth?™

  This is a question that time and time again I have never gotten an answer to whenever I ask a JW. I'm hoping you can tell me why it is that you are a JW and why you think it is The Truth.™

  To everyone else: stop picking on PMJ's writing. You only make yourselves look arrogant, stupid and foolish. Honestly, how does it help to be so critical?

  There is no doubt nor can there be any doubt that Jehovah's Witnesses are the True Religion under the leadership of the Faithful and Discreet Slave as foretold by our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. Certainly our Organization has made a few mistakes in the past but this is in harmony with the principle stated in Proverbs 4:18.

  One thing that makes me very proud to be a Witness is our wonderful Bible Chronology with its understanding of the seventy years as a period of exile, servitude and desolation running from the Fall of Jerusalem in 607 BCE until the Return in 539 BCE according to Jeremiah, Daniel. Ezra, Zechariah and Josephus.

  Some years ago a pseudo scholar, Carl O Jonsson wrote a book seeking to destroy WT chronology and the theology of the Gentile Times. This work has misled and deceived many people but is not a serious piece of scholarship for it is simply a critique of our chronology with its own foolish interpretations such as its presenation of the seventy years which although lengthy in scope is narrow in focus.

  A correction in paragraph 2: a typo - '539 BCE' should read '537 BCE' now corrected.
