No...I'm sure......the changes were from "in this century" to "in our time! I'm sure. I hve seen the folder that came with the "Kingdom ministry".
Is the Revelation Grand Climax book in print anymore?

I too thought the Revelation book stated Armageddon would come within the 20th century. It didn't.

A revised edition of the book was issued in 2006, and, as far as I know, is still in print.

Take another look, you are mistaken....
Maybe you are thinking of the January 1 1989 Watchtower which definitely did say "20th century" (and later was changed to "in our time" in the bound volume)?
There was a book from the 70's which also said "20th century". Don't recall the name, I think it had a yellow cover.
You can do a search on this website for the January 1 1989 WT and you'll likely find dozens of threads onn it.

BTW:
The change from "in our 20th century" to "in our day" was in the January 1, 1989 Watchtower. The printed magazine carried the former wording, but it had been changed to the latter when the bound volume was issued (and, of course, in the later CD-ROM).
The book that said explicitly that Armageddon would come in the 20th century was The Nations Shall Know That I Am Jehovah - How? (p. 216). Ironically, this was the book that also claimed prophetic status for the organization (e.g., p.58).

Thank you for the PM! But...a beginners question...how do I answer your PM, or send a PM to you! I know it's a ridiculous question, but I cannot see how to do?
This is the first PM I've got here. I do really hope that you don't think I'm an idiot!

Yes, I know about the Watchtower..and it's true! But they made the same mistake in the original edition of the Climax book!
