The time left is reduced! NOW!
And even more reduced NOW!
And more NOW!
And yet still more NOW!
Even more reduced NOW!
It's the JW version of Zeno's paradox.

The time left was reduced when this thread was started. How much more so must the time be reduced now!

Yeah, you feel the irony of that phrase, repeated ad infinitum on that day. I asked hubby if he realized that Paul's prophecy is now 2,000 years old? If everyone had taken him literally back then, the church would have died out a long time ago from lack of progeny! More and more I agree with Leolaia that this prophecy was fulfilled with with the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD, well within the time frame to make Paul's words meaningful. There is no second, current application for an end-time event.
Thank you for inspiring me to look up Zeno's paradox, a great picture.

I didn't say he was a GOOD witness. He likes my spunk. It's why he married me. That and my extreme patience.
I tend towards the cerebral; he asks what's for dinner. He keeps me grounded.
