No it's not. For goodness sake you numpties, he was not talking about the timing of Armageddon and this comment is nothing new. He was simply saying it would take the whole of the thousand year reign for Jesus to sort out the earth, which is what JWs have taught for decades already. Stop making fools of yourselves already.

Slimboyfat,
How can God's will be completely done (waiting for the transcript to be posted any minute).
without the famous "Universal Sovereignty" issue having been settled on this planet.?
The rebellion of the perfected humans
A-F-T-E-R the thousand years HAVE E-N-D-E-D (Rev. 20:7) ?, and
their fiery destruction?, and
the writing of the names of THE HOLY ONES (on the four-cornered earth), into the book of life?.
Surely these happenings are the crowning events in the current segment of "God's will being done on earth", that started with the talking snake? so
you are so right: LOESCH did not stray from old light, wtspeak, but
this is old light has nothing to do what the bible really teaches.
That is why it seems appropriate to expose the fallacy in that perhaps off-the-cuff remark.
Loeschen.

just a thought:
perhaps the speaker misread his notes*,
added a zero, (what is one zero between the "Friends"?
said millenium, when it should have been
CENTURY.
The ONCE overlapping generation will expire around 2075, well within the truthful range of the speakers remark.
*writing on loeschpapier tends to be hard to read, better with a mirror and (smoke)

I expect those still in are having exactly the same conversations about 'that phrase about the millenium'. Which is just what the GB intended. Perhaps that will keep the cult going a few more years.

Thousand years = millenial reign - millenium
He's simlply referring to fulfillment of 1 Cor 15:28 (see Watchtower 9/15/2012 Peace for a Thousand Years - and Beyond!)

yeah, but the really juicy stuff happens
AFTER the End of the thousand year rule of Christ,
it is not included.
may be the GB/FADS likes to thing within the 1000 year time frame, for that will be the length of their tenure as kings with Christ?
unless Christ started ruling in 1914, the first anointed non-FADS members were resurrected in 1919.

It's best to discontinue looking for secret messages in GB talks and WT publications.
From it's beginning, the Society has taught the doctrine of 'paradise restored' by the end of the thousand year reign of Christ.
