It seems as though I have stumbled on a most peculiar situation, I simply wanted to see how the idea was presented in the first place, and then maybe transport myself back to the world where people would believe that measurements made in a pyramid in Egypt could have some relevance to a small religion/publishing company, and then perhaps understand how they could swallow the B.S about 1918.
But it seems as though , perhaps, NOWHERE is the doctrine actually taught, explained, it is simply referred to in the usual "evidently blah blay Bible chronology blah blah a marked year blah blah".
Now, is that not amazing ? The whole claim for the authority and the very existence of the GB/WT as God's Organization, as God's Channel , His mouthpiece etc ad nauseum, is not spelled out anywhere.
This is smoke and mirrors gone mad, they do not even have their own teaching to back up their claims, let alone any proof, what a house of cards the whole con trick is !
Edited to say:
Sorry, jumped the gun, I posted the above before reading the 1926 WT, so this is the first instance I guess of the idea being outlined, no real proof is offered of course, and no excuse for not having known they were inspected in 1918, it takes almost 8 years before they acknowledge it in the WT.
Thanks for posting the mag sighco, it is exactly what I wanted to see. There really is no scriptural argument presented, simply ,I, Rutherford, think this scripture means this, so it does, and this forms the foundation of the modern religion, boy, talk about a house built on sand !
