Don’t forget, the total focus of most Jehovah’s Witnesses is the coming day of Armageddon. As much as they bleat about not serving with a date in mind it simply isn’t so, the ‘serving Jehovah without a date’ only crops up usually during a Watchtower article admitting another failed prophecy (ahem, I mean new light, excuse me).
The spiritual food coming out of Brooklyn is mainly tasteless porridge, with no nutritional value. Why do the JWs, even the devout ones, constantly trawl through these inane ramblings? They are looking for the nugget. They are looking for that one piece of spiritual food that will sustain them. They are looking for clues from the ‘Slave class’ (who, after all are God’s messengers) indicating ‘the date’.
So, with this in mind, read the information again. Note these key points:
Elijah and John did a work that showed that ‘the date’ was near. In this case 70 C.E., which is mentioned how many times?
The Modern day ‘Slave’ is doing a similar work, so there may be other prophetic similarities.
So, (and this doesn’t have to be logical, we are talking about JWs here!) the end MAY come in modern day 70 C.E. Yes? You follow? 70 C.E. was 70 years on from whatever…..so……Armageddon will come 70 years from whatever.
What date do the new ‘John class’ give to start your calculations? Yes, 1935.
So , 70 years on from 1935 gives you 2005!
BUT BUT BUT – The society will NEVER come out and say this openly. This is a subliminal suggestion only. The purpose is to foster speculation that ‘the date’ is only a few years away. The idea that Armageddon is so close is needed, like the proverbial carrot, to keep the brothers going. When 2005 passes without cosmic incident, they will look at each other, shrug, and get back to trawling through the crap issuing forth from the Brooklyn sewers.
