  i asked why the '1914 generation' term was removed from the awake magazine masthead in november of 1995. the brother there told me that jesus said we are living in a time of change.

  does anybody have scriptural proof of this?

  does jesus apply this to his day or our day?

  recently i have been approached by an elder and asked if i could get going again in the door to door preaching activity due to not having any time in for three months.

  i told him it was due to health reasons, etc.

  now it seems i am due for a sheperding call in the very near future.

  In reply to BluesBrother: My wife would be loyal to me first before any religion because she relies on me for loving support on the home front.

  How much time have they bought themselves? How long can they stretch it now?

  members of the second group of annointed will be alive to see the end, or so they are now saying, therefore the youngest member of the anointed alive today is the key here.

  how old is the youngest accepted annointed person today?

  they can't be any younger than 50-ish, surely.

  I asked my sister about the most recent Generation definition change, and she said we do not have much longer to wait for this system to end now. She said to me to talk to her husband because he could explain it better to me. He is an elder. I decided not to talk to him.

  I response to ziddina's quote, "guilt trips" have no effect on me since learning the truth about the Truth.

  Thanks to everyone. I like the slow fade method the best because of one problem, my wife was raised in the truth and she is still a strong believer in this relgion. She has always been supportative of the elders. I have not talked to her about the 607 BCE subject or the six or seven definition changes regarding the Generation issue. I will be attending the district assembly in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on June 18 to 20, 2010. I will take notes regarding the Generation definition change and talk to my wife about it after the assembly.

  We were baptized and married in 1970 and two children in the truth and many other relatives also in the truth. I do some part time sub-contract work for a couple in my congregation and her husband is a ministerial servant. If I were DF I would lose my job. You now can see the difficulty I am having here. We are nearly dept free and I plan on taking a trades training course in 2011, which should help toward full time work opportunities and not preaching activities.

I told him it was due to health reasons, etc. Now it seems I am due for a sheperding call in the very near future. If I refuse the call, will I be disfellowshipped? If I accept the call and show them the information to disprove the 607 BCE date, would I be placed on probation or disfellowshipped? These sheperding calls are a yearly occurrence. I found the 607 BCE discrepancy very interesting.
