We all know the Society would love to get rid of all the problems caused by clinging to 1914 and all they claimed it meant for the last 100+ years.
It looks like they are laying the groundwork for easing away from the whole concept of 1914. This would also let them do away with the ridiculous "overlapping generation" bullcrap. What a diaper load that has been...
Anyway, the following is from their super secret marching orders for April, 2019. Draw your own conclusions...
"3. “100 Years of Faithfulness”: The coordinator of the body of elders, or another elder, should be invited to read the following special announcement. Encourage everyone to download the August 2019 Watchtower study article watch the May 2019 broadcast.
[TO BE READ BY AN ELDER]
God’s true worshipers are blessed with increasing light. How excited Jehovah’s people were when the identity of the King of the North recently became much clearer! In this 100th year since our enthroned King appointed the Governing Body to provide spiritual food, their role has continued to become more evident. Whilst many sincere ones have looked back to specificdates to ascertain the fulfilment of prophecy, we now have a century of activity that provides overwhelming evidence that Jehovah is guiding His people by means of this Faithful Slave. Seeing similar activity, not dates, moved Andrew to exclaim to Peter: “We have found the Messiah” (John 1:41). A thrilling Watchtower study article “100 Years of Faithfulness” has been prepared in the August 2019 Study edition, available for download this week, explaining why our trust in the Faithful Slave need not rely upon mere archaeological dates –which are sometimes disputed by critics; this article will be studied during October. Whilst some in the past have clung to dates such as 607 BCE, the Faithful Salve has always advised caution. Since 1963, the book All Scripture is Inspired of God and Beneficial cautioned about607 BCE: “The calculation for this period backward from the fall of Jerusalem to the time ofthe division of the kingdom after Solomon’s death presents many difficulties.” (si 285 par.7) Again, in 1988 when the Bible Encyclopaedia Insight on the Scriptures presented a chartleading up to 607 BCE it clearly stated: “The chart is not intended to be viewed as an absolute chronology but, rather, as a suggested presentation of the reigns of the two kingdoms.” (it-1463) We are sure that all will be excited by the 100 years of activity presented in the August 2019 article and a special video to be aired in the May 2019 broadcast, knowing that ourconfidence in the Faithful Slave is not dependant on disputable dates, but on “the things we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20)."
