  I have searched many times for the actual text of what the FCCC said in their endorsement of the League of Nations in 1919 - a quote much loved by the WTS and seen as a fulfillment of prophecy of "the disgusting thing standing in the Holy place. What do you know? it was here all the time, courtesy of our old friend Hawkaw...long may he be remembered.

  The download links in his post still worked for me and it is fascinating reading. I am undecided as to whether it was a misquote by the WTS, although of course the application of it to scripture is unreal (IMHO)

  See what you think.

  All I get from the old thread where images should be are a notice that "Remote Linking is Forbidden." Maybe I'm not looking at the right thing. The first post appears to have had scans (or something) of the FCCC Bulletin, but only have the remote linking notice. Maybe I'm not looking at the right thing.

  This would be interesting to see.

  Take Care

  As is usual, the WTS gets "the stuff between the quote marks" correct, while completely missing the point of what the author is trying to say.
