I would like to see the letter sent to the CO's regarding this - what checks are they to do, is there anything online for them to look at first, do CO's still have to get approval from legal etc.

If something has been dedicated to God (branch, bethel, kingdom hall), how can that then be sold?
Can the same apply to my personal dedication, and I just change my mind too?

by AndDontCallMeShirley in"why are you looking forward to 1872?".
.. "in this chapter we present the bible evidence which indicates that six thousand years from the creation of adam were complete with a.d. 1872; and hence that, since a.d. 1872 are chronologically entered upon the seventh thousand or the millennium.

Another 'prophet' quote:
w73 3/1 p. 150 Heeding Divine Warning Is WisdomWhat is to be gained by hesitating and doubting to the end that Jehovah can raise up and has raised up a genuine "prophet" within our generation?

Quoting the verse would be good, instead of expecting the 100's of thread viewers to go and look it up for themselves.
Here, I'll start you off:
(John 14:6)
Jesus said to him: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."Splash

Noah's birthday is recorded for us.
It was the day when Jehovah drained the water off the earth, and as a 601st birthday treat to himself Noah opened up the ark covering for some fresh air.
(Genesis 8:13) Now in the 601st year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the waters had drained from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was drying.

JWS CELEBRATE 100 YEARS SINCE 1914: HAPPY BIRTHDAY 1914 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
by steve2 inthe us edition of the june kingdom ministry urges the still-active witnesses to get out and preach in august saying that it is fitting because the anniversary of the start of the time of the end will be in that month.
what arch hypocrites!.
they won't allow children to have birthdays but they celebrate a date on a calendar that suits their doctrinal purpose...which is itself virtually the "birthday" of the start of the time of the end - according to their doctrine.. perhaps the "celebrations" will backfire when they try to load 100 candles on the celebratory cake and there will be a huge burnout of faith in this man-made date.. besides, the organization was incorporated in 1876 - decades before 1914.. there may well be moments of unease when the few witnesses with operating brain cells realize the organization has kept them in panic-mode to urgently preach about an end that never comes.

Zoos JWs understand his rule as king started in 1914. WT stated doctrine is that his rule will last 1000 years.
In black and white from a recent WT:
w14 01/15 p. 16 para. 14-15:
"Even though Jehovah crowned his Son, Jesus Christ, as the Messianic King in 1914, this was not the full answer to our prayer “let your Kingdom come.”When we pray for God’s Kingdom to come, we are asking God that the Messianic King and his associate rulers come to put an end to human rulership and remove the earthly opposers of the Kingdom.
The time for this to happen is very near. How fitting that our yeartext for 2014, the 100th anniversary of the establishment of God’s Kingdom in heaven, is Matthew 6:10: “Let your Kingdom come”!
After the Messianic King destroys God’s enemies, he will throw Satan and his demons into an abyss for a thousand years."
.
So to explain in logical terms, Jesus comes to rule in 1914. He rules for 100 or more years. Then at armageddon he rules again, this time for the stated 1000 years.
