    After all the references to Christ comming soon I guess soon means thousands of years. It looks like the GB got it right according to the bible.

    I think comming was originally spelt with a u. Now that makes more sense.

    Soon means the diminishing amount of time we each have alive. Basically, that's the only relevant "soon" the WT is concerned with; milking everyone for all they're worth before they die.

    Could be a thousand years or one day as to Jehovah's view of time. So the Watchtower is safe for another 900 years give or take a day, soon.
