That was the first thing to come to my mind when I read the report about him.

No one in my family born on or before 1914 is alive. NO ONE!

A question for former Bethelites....
Those in that picture on that 1984 Watchtower were old-timers at Bethel. I recognize a few of them, but not all. It would be interesting to post a picture of that Watchtower with the names of those Bethelites and note if any of them are still alive. I would guess that most of them have passed away by now.
I see Babette Herrlinger, Sophie Yuchienewicz (sp?), Harry Peterson, George Gangas, Mary Hannan....but I'm not sure of some of the others, though they look familiar.
Anyone else recognize a few faces?
Anyone know if any of these people are still alive?

I thought they already side stepped this problem with the "New Light" that it would be that the generation being refered to was anyone who felt the effects of the events of 1914 would not pass away before the end.
Or has that been revised again?

Hey, caba...
When I was putting that post together, I looked at those faces and wondered if any of them were still alive. I would have to guess that going on 25 years since that photo was taken that most, if not all, are gone.
I'd be interested to know if anyone has info on them...though you did pretty good to recognize some. I have no clue who any of them are.

Yea, they've changed the "generation" teaching a couple of times...
...but it doesn't change the fact that they did at one time proclaim that this generation would not die. So they can change the doctrine as much as they want, the prediction is in print and proven to have failed, even if it's after they fiddled with the words and meanings.
False prophets are what they are.

Oh no doubt Undercover. That whole issue was one of the tipping points for me. Becuase of how close the end was I made several life altering decisions based on the faulty time line, theorizing, and out right fabrication of the WTS and then to back track on it to basically making it an infinite deadline was alot to take. I just wish I would have known what I know now.

Badly, like all the rest.
Dude, the other veteran in the UK just died the other week Henry Allingham
Interesting how these old boys all got close to 120. Check it out, this was written 3500 years ago
Genesis 6:3 (New International Version)
3 Then the LORD said, "My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal ; his days will be a hundred and twenty years."
Well the Lord doesn't change His mind Hebrews 13:8
As to the generation, of course the WT pick a false topic. Jesus' words have nothing to do with WWII but the place where He was living, Jerusalem.
