How Will the Society React to the Hundred Year Anniversary of 1914?

it's only a couple of years away now and what a headache it must present to the gb - providing they have given it much thought already.

there probably is no elegant way of presenting the hundred year long failure of the end to come; the fact that the "short period of time" of satan being cast down to the earth has now stretched beyond any credibility.

but they have to deal with it one way or another.

It will give them another opportunity to ask "Is It Later Than You Think".

Behind the scenes, they'll be celebrating the centinial celebration of a great Corporation. The bestest organization ever!!

by diamondiiz in

if you've been to the meeting when the letter was read, what was jw reaction????

just curious if it was just another sign that the end is nearer or did any wake up for a second to realize the corporation is downsizing due to costs..

The bro that gave the talk said something that I thought was telling. He mentioned that the work was being simplified. Then he mentioned that it seemed that most of what we are doing now is inviting people to our special events. Pointed to the Memorial "campaign", then the invite to the "Special" talk, and that soon we would be inviting folks to the summer conventions.

No more 5 minute sermons with 2 scriptures read and applied?? Those were the days.
