  1914 countdown card in 2014 Yearbook

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the 2014 yearbook has a scan of the 1914 countdown card.

  it does not say whether this was published by the watchtower or independently, so please let me know if you have any further information about it.

  in typical offensive fashion, the yearbook blames the members rather than themselves for the false expectations held for 1914.. some bible students even carried a countdown card so that they could mark off each passing day.

  Of course the question to be asked is, why the chart says Day Zero is October 1st.

  .

  In the November 1, 1914, Watch Tower they all along reckoned it is September 20, 1914.

  the 2014 yearbook is out, and i have scanned the publisher figures into a more readable format at 2013 service year report.

  i have updated some of the graphs at http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/statistics.php and will do the rest tonight.

  there are no real surprises, with very similar results as during the last couple of years.

  A message from Brother Russell

  i was having an anointed moment last night when brother russell came to me in a dream.

  he was quite disturbed and agitated.. he said "brother reed, what in the miracle wheat eating jellyfish is going on with the organization i set up?

  the more of my beloved watchtower that i read the more they marginalize my dead ass.".

  next week's bible reading (Gen. 1-5) stumpers.for your "in" family conversations & sly comments.

  you may add many, but here are two:.

  1) vegetation made on day 3, animals formed day 5,6, but- then.

  in gen 2, man seems to be the primary creation, and vegetation and then animals were formed from the dust and brought to him to name them.

  Captain Blithering >>> Can anyone suggest some GENUINE well-worded comments that we could make regarding any of these inconsistencies

  Yeah, can do. From their own website in 2009.

  No more doubts for me! Good-bye JWN! We have THE TRUTH!

  i could go on and on about my personal journey over the last 2 years or so, but i don't need to.

  everything i needed to hear to finally lay my doubts to rest happened on one meeting night.

  it could only be divine providence.

  M.E.P.S. Only Jehovah could put his idea for M.E.P.S into a human mind.

  i have been reading the posts on who is and or had been an elder.

  it amazes me at what many have said.

  perhaps i have misunderstood what they were saying.

  The END did NOT come in their lifetime!!

  i don't know about the rest of you, but i have seen my fair share of death.

  both sets of grandparents, aunts and uncles, older jws that were pillars in the community.

  i even knew the first missionary in missouri, a brother named gerald golf.

  . . . then why all the urgency — the talk about a matter of “life or death” — if the end is not immediate? It just becomes so obsolete with time advancing.

  .

  As per WT definition, any one dying before Armageddon will not be counted as belonging to the “Great Crowd”.

  Just think about it!
