607 is powerful to a certain subset of JW's leaving because it proves they have been purpusefully deceived about past bible chronology. That is true regardless of how you look at the dates.
I see no reason to believe that any such prophecy is contained in the bible - even assuming theism is true.

Thanks, Spook - and of course this could explain the constant irrational behavior of the ranting and raving 607 protectionists:
All the Jehovah's Witness chronology falls down when this is exposed to be a made-up year to fit in with Russell's notions of the pyramid calculations. Hence the apologists are very very sensitive about it.
The now established GB do not like to take noticed or acknowledge the organization's past biblical logistic mistakes , simply for the fact that it
chops right at one of the most important proclamation of this institution and that is the believability factor of themselves as the one and
only godly guided organization earth. The very name that they hold on to and identify themselves with verifies that very fact.
That being said, its easy to realize why they haven't changed most of their proclamations regarding 1914 or 607.
This religious organization built itself up on misguidance of information, to forward any type of honesty about past mistakes regarding interpretation of
bible chronology would be too damaging in their minds to pursue. This organization now is both rich in devoted slaves ( 7 Million ) and in assets ( 1 billion + $$$ )
It would be too dangeous to play around with that.
"Wise people learn from others mistakes
Smart people learn from their own mistakes
Stupid people never learn.... and
Dubs already learned everything from the WT"
And, the WT never leanrs....
Outlaw, you are da man! lol....
Then again another thought is why would they pursue looking closely and critically at the organizations past biblical chronological interpretations.. ( GB members )
The possibility that it would lessen to a degree their own personal obtained achievements that they have acquired since being involved with this organization.
To voice an indifference against the already established status quo of this organization, might very well put themselves into jeopardy.
And we all know that looking at the other side of the door of this orgaization is pretty dark and lonely with nothing but your own personal integrity to hold on to.
I do appreciate that for those of us who have disposed of the WT and the 607 nonsense, it is a bind to keep going over it, and some Newbies do not seem to have the nous to use the search button on here and check out the old threads.
So , for the benefit of any person it has not dawned upon, I will repeat with pleasure what is true.
The date 607 BCE is not supported by ANY PROOF as the date for the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians.
The date 1914 therefore has NO SIGNIFICANCE in Bible prophecy.
Therefore Jesus did not choose anybody in 1919 to be his " Faithful and Discreet Slave "
Therefore the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses are liars, with no authority, no connection with God, or credibility in any field !!!!!
W.T Apologists prove me wrong !
