When I was a true believer we sometimes noticed these apparent small inconsistencies. We used to put it down to individual article writers putting a different slant on things … and laugh it off.

Any experienced dub would explain their belief thatJesus became King in the realm of Heaven after his ascension and was a king of the Christian congregation. At 1914 he was granted the Kingdom over the Earth , and began his Parousia or Heavenly presence. After Armageddon his Millennium Kingdom will begin when his rule is empowered over mankind.
Simple, isn’t it ? ( don’t blame me , I didn’t write this stuff)

The "Time of the End"
by Rivergang infor those who still hold to the belief that the last 109 years have been part of "the time of the end", consider this: .
https://www.science.org/content/article/why-536-was-worst-year-be-alive.
it would have been quite understandable if those alive during the middle of the 6th century ad believed the "end was nigh.".

I am sure those poor people did believe the end is nigh , as they did in the 14th C. and others .
That is interesting and impressive that it is supported by tree ring evidence and other ice core samples.

If it is less than a common cold , why are there around 8000 people detained in hospital with it in the U.K. ?
As an immunity suppressed person I am not going to a K.Hall for love nor money.

Re . the Rand Cam question, I have a letter from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses, dated in 2002 , in answer to my enquiry.
They categorically denied holding any shares in the company. They said the stock listing was “erroneous “ and was being corrected . Apparently two brothers originally owned the company and made an agreement to give them some of the profits, the firm changed hands and mistakes occurred. They denied ever receiving any money from this .
That letter was posted on line here at the time.

“Who knows if they put on Zoom and do something else while they are ( supposedly ) listening to the meeting?“
That’s what we do, and my wife is still a believer, she just finds the modern meetings boring… Suits me !
That guy in the video is an entertaining presenter, I thought it was well done. I cannot see zoom ending though .

The claims seem to be legit. You can clearly see the Norwegian spelling of Jehovah’s name there .
This resonates with me because the last JC that I did before I came off Eldership was a lad who had committed the terrible sin of buying a lottery scratch card . We read the riot act and threatened to D/f him , thankfully we only reproved him .
What hypocrites these people are !
