Do you disagree with his chronology? Unlike that of the WTS, it's supported by overwhelming amounts of evidence.
That book was written in 1987. ... in 1987, you only had CD’s, tapes and records, now you have Ipods, digital radio, digital TV, and someone to come to your door to deliever you CD's you bought of Amazon. If I said to you I have an Internet connection and you look up web sites and so forth, you’d laugh at me then!!! The world is ever changing, but look at how fast things are moving along. And now they reckon about we are going to live like the Jetsons with these flying cars in the sky in the next few decades. I saw it all on 60 Minutes. A lot has changed since then. They have a factory in Italy where robots do all the work and the only people who come along are those who do the repair work occasionally if one of the robot hands or arms breaks down. What's going to happen to all those people in Far East Asia that make cars? Why not get a machine to do it? Carl Jonson didn’t think of that! Carl talks about things in the past! Life was easier back then. What about all these baby boomers with their pensions what now? How is the government going to do that? What about when you go in a supermarket and you scan the items for yourself. That's in it's trial stage over here. What's going to happen with all those workers? Now we are running out of fuel. What if we run out of ethanol? This era is like no other. Time is moving fast. You live in Ireland and I can talk to you way over on the other side of the world. If I went back in time to tell you that I can do all this on the Internet in 1987, you would have laughed at me. But now it’s happening. The amount of technologyical achievements, wars, unemployed people is astounding! Remember that time that people use to go to Church? NO ONE DOES THAT ANYMORE!!!
It says in Daniel all these things will be sealed up until the time of the end. Nearly everyone has heard about Jesus Christ, so when he said to preach to the gospel to the entire inhabited earth, it couldn't be anymore literal that today. I don't know what more proof we need.
That's true. It's pretty hard to rationalize (I admit) that for example a 1/3 of Europe was whipped out in the Black Death plague that swept across Europe about 700 years ago. But that was before they even knew about America is "over there" and Australia is down "over there." The earth literally has been filled with people like the commandment God gave in Genesis. As far as I am concerned ALL THESE THINGS ARE TAKEN PLACE NOW! It says about in the Bible about cultures not mixing in together -- it's all true! Daniel 2:43 “Whereas you beheld iron mixed with moist clay, they will come to be mixed with the offspring of mankind; but they will not prove to be sticking together, this one to that one, just as iron is not mixing with molded clay.” That is just so irrefutable today!!! It' happening all over the place, literally now. The whole world has been preached to all over the world, literally now. Australia, Europe, Americas...

I don’t agree with everything about the JW’s, they think that Palestine is no big issue and it’s just politics! But that amazing book I’ve been reading reckons IT’S THE BIGGEST ISSUE IN HISTORY? Ever wonder what the “2 witnesses” are in Revelation? This guy could be wrong, but he reckons it’s Jews and Christians. He counts from 586 BC and reaches to the time when the Muslims built that Dome Rock in 689 AD… That’s 2500 years later. And adjusted the 2.5 times calculations to 1948 or something like that… He explained the 1967 6 day war as well. You’d have to read it to understand. I am too excited about it now! This is the generation Jesus was talking about! You should read that yourself. 586/7 is an important date after all! I probably am rambling on a bit now, but all these prophecies I am seeing seeing fulfilled. It all makes sense to me.
And one more thing: The doomsday clock is currently at 7 midnight before midnight! They've had this clock for 50 years now. They wouldn't have it if there was no threat! But obviously there is!
I've brain stormed a lot, but it's one of those passionate topics. Can't help myself!
