Dabid sums it up pretty well
"Trying to understand the process by which Jehovah's Witnesses get their new understandings is quite a challenge. They claim to be directed by God and the Bible, but their teachings go in circles and seem to have no direction at all.
They should just confess that they have no idea what they are talking about, but instead they say that your life depends on obeying them and this weird direction that they supposedly receive from God."
Atlantis, thank you so much!
I appreciate all your hard work.
Where are you getting this 1918 and 1919 from?
It is explained in this post :
What is interesting to note :
Jerusalem was destroyed in 587 BCE and not 607 BCE so the calculations for 1914 are off by 20 years
The 3.5 years only brings us to April 2018 so their calculations are off yet again.
When Jesus supposedly arrived invisibly in 1914, the International Bible students were all but dead. If we take Jesus' parable of the master giving his slaves money for them to invest, then that would make them the slave who buried the coins he received.
According to the society's literature they seem to imply that the master decided to give the slave a second chance and five years later they were chosen, but this doesn't align with the Bible version of the parable.
