Looking on the CD-ROM, their attempts to explain the verse away leaves much to be desired.

Jeremiah 25:12, says "And it must occur that when seventy years have been fulfilled I shall call to account against the king of Babylon and against that nation,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘their error, even against the land of the Chal·de´ans, and I will make it desolate wastes to time indefinite."
When was the king of Babylon called into account? Daniel 9:26-28 says, "ME´NE, God has numbered [the days of] your kingdom and has finished it. TE´KEL, you have been weighed in the balances and have been found deficient. PE´RES, your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and the Persians."
So the ending point of the 70 years is 539 BCE.
539 BCE - 70 years = 609 BCE
What happened in 609 BCE? "The Babylonians defeat the Assyrian army of Ashur-uballit II and capture Harran. Ashur-uballit, the last Assyrian king, disappears from history." So logically the 70 year period that Jeremiah foretells is the period of Babylon's Dominance of the region and the lands roundabout, from the time Assyria's last stronghold was captured, until Babylon fell to Cyrus.

Ezra 1:1 says, "And in the first year of Cyrus the king of Persia…" And Ezra 3:1 says, "When the seventh month arrived the sons of Israel were in [their] cities. And the people began to gather themselves as one man to Jerusalem."
From Ezra's timeline, a plain reading would indicate that the first regnal year would be Nissan 538 BC, and therefore, they returned by the 7 th month, Tishri 538 BC.

Since this is my 537th post, I decided to bump this thread to the top.
To reiterate: The 70 years did not end in the year 537BC...therefore, the 70 years could not have began in 607BC.

Elder's School 2012 any news?
by Londo111 ini have heard rumblings that this has started up in some places.
i know there are some awakened elders on here who often provide good intel.
in light of all the juicy things that have happened in the last year, especially the conti case, i think many of us here are pining to hear any bit of news, so it would be much appreciated!.

Watchtower and Anonymous Links, Updates, News, etc.
by DT ini wanted to consolidate a lot of the information about the attack of anonymous against the watchtower society.
if you disagree with the tactics of anonymous, that's fine.
this information may still be useful as the public is made more aware of the the dangerous policies of the watchtower society.

Penn State pays for covering up Sandusky crimes, BIG TIME
by talesin inthis sends a clear message to other universities who may be harboring child molesters.. excerpt:.
the sanctions by the governing body of college sports, which capped eight months of turmoil on the central pennsylvania campus, stopped short of delivering the "death penalty" of shutting down the sport.
but the ncaa hit penn state with $60 million in fines, ordered it out of the postseason for four years, and will cap scholarships at 20 below the normal limit for four years.. other sanctions five years' probation, and the ncaa also said that any current or incoming football players are free to immediately transfer and compete at another school.. ncaa president mark emmert announced the staggering sanctions at a news conference in indianapolis.

Since it is obvious that Satan is persecuting Penn State, as he is persecuting the Watchtower, perhaps this is the one university that Witnesses should be allowed to go to. Penn State must be approved by Jehovah.
(in case nobody recognized it…that was sarcasm)

If this was a backroom judicial meeting, with the elders serving as judge, jury and prosecution, and the one being judged said this exact spiel, would the elders judge him as repentant? The Society asks for mercy that they do not give their flock.
