Hello, it is me again,
something not new but seen from a "different angle"

The Real Significance of 1914
AS INDICATED on page 4,
“this magazine builds confidence in the Creator’s promise of a peaceful and
secure new world before the generation that saw the events of 1914
passes away.”
No doubt many of our readers find that statement surprising.

How Important Can a Promise Be?
NOT a day passes without millions of people being disappointed, hurt and even angered by broken promises. Contracts, leases and other agreements are not lived up to. Appointments are not kept. Promised rewards, gifts and services are forgotten about. Marriage engagements are broken. Marriage vows are shoved aside as individuals get legal separations and divorces on flimsy grounds. Repeatedly the promises of politicians prove to be empty words. Moreover, many promises are purposely deceptive.

The actions of many people demonstrate that a promise does not mean much.
They have little concern about the harm a broken promise may cause.
Nevertheless, whether such persons want to recognize it or not, they have a
certain accountability to One who has at no time failed to fulfill a promise.
That One is the Creator of man, Jehovah God. He does not view the making
and breaking of promises as just a little thing, particularly when the action is
deliberate and definitely injurious. Then, too, if his name is associated
with a promise, he will not permit his name to be defamed by
nonfulfillment of that promise.
*Now what happens if someone should declare as "good news"
something "beyond what we declared to you.." (Galatians 1:8,9)???
Let's see the WTS own answer:

Note also how strongly the apostle Paul stated matters: “Even if we or an angel
out of heaven were to declare to you as good news something beyond
what we declared to you as good news, let him be accursed.” Paul then
repeated that statement for emphasis.—Galatians 1:8, 9.
To use somebody's else pet phrase :"…Facts speak louder that words "
