    AlanF,

    That is your problem when you view the bible that way. A matter of fact, many people have serious problems when they don't read and apply God's word.

    Very interesting. I was out when they changed the 1914 doctrine and didn't find out about it until 3 years after the fact but I was amazed at how they tried to sweep it under the rug when from my memory that was the single biggest thing we pointed to when I was still in.

    Prehaps the false prophet who was stoned to death mentioned in Jeremiah for prematurely predicting the Jewish captives release could have claimed he was just over zelous?

    Alan,

    : The new understanding boils down to this ridiculous notion: the generation of 1914 is whatever "generation" is living when "the end" comes. Of course, thinking people realize that this definition has nothing whatsoever to do with 1914. If "the end" comes in the year 3000, what connection is there between "the end" and 1914?

    This basically means that what Jesus was saying was "THIS generation, which is not really THIS generation at all but the generation that is living when the end comes will by no means pass away by the time the end comes."

    In otherwords, "the generation that is living when the end comes will be living when the end comes."

    Doh! The leaders of the WTS are a bunch of idiots.
