It just says the CONQUEST of Jerusalem, not the destruction !
But it is interesting that it states 607 and not 605/606 ish.
( we all know there was more than one visit from the Babylonian power, and Daniel 9:2 says the "devastations of Jerusalem," )

BBC Radio 4 reference to 607 Babylonian conquest?
by 88JM inwas listening to bbc radio 4 late sunday night, and in a programme about migration, they referenced the "babylonian conquest of jerusalem in 607 b.c.
" which caught my attention.. did they not mean 587 b.c., or did i understand it wrong?.
the link to the programme is below - sorry if you're not in the u.k. as you probably won't be able to listen to bbc programmes.

If you had the audience of the GB, what is your #1 question you would ask them?
by Darth Fader The Sequel inthere are a million of them and mine is by no means the most important question to ask them if i only had one shot at it.
but, i have always wondered what kind of bs excuse they would give as an answer to this question: "brother goober bum, given that there are both male and female partakers here on earth who claim to be of the 'anointed' and plan on being of the 144,000 ruling with christ in heaven for eternity........ why are the female 'anointed' treated as submissive, second class citizens and why is their opinion on doctrinal matters, matters of teaching and reproving, anything at all.... why are they not recognized while here on earth even though you claim that jesus has selected them to become angels to rule with him?
".

mr. GB
Jesus says there will be neither marriage or giving in marriage in the resurrection, but we would be like angels. So will we be asexuals, without our family unit and privacy and be just one big camp of happy leaping asexuals ?
I think Id rather have a new spiritual body to experience new dimensions rather than castration !

Thanks londo
WBTS : The generation that understood the events in 1914 will BY NO MEANS PASS AWAY ....
A supercentenarian (sometimes hyphenated as super-centenarian) is someone who has lived to or passed his/her 110th birthday.
There are estimated to be 300-450 living supercentenarians [ 3 ] in the world, though only 73 verified cases are known. [ 4 ] A study conducted in 2010 showed that the countries with the most known supercentenarians (living and dead, in order of total) were the United States, [ 5 ] Japan, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy. [ 6 ]
The first verified supercentenarians in human history died in the late 19th century. Until the 1980s, the oldest age attained by supercentenarians was 115, but this has now been surpassed
The largest number of verified living people aged 115 or over at the same time is five; this has happened once:

This WBTS prophesy has failed !

Any truth in this special announcement ?
http://www.topix.com/forum/religion/jehovahs-witness/TV069G1K7CFVHM2QV
My mother gave me a phone call tonight excitedly asking me if I went to the Thursday night meeting? I answered No because I was taking care of a few things. Then she said they came out with a special announcement.
Well...I just kinda yawned and said "Oh?"
With disbelief she said: "They are getting rid of the meetings ."
I sat there dumbfounded waiting for the punch line of some stupid joke. But my mother is a big boned black woman....she dont play.
I said...what in the world are you talking about???
she said: "Yep....they are getting rid of them all except for sundays"
She explained a little more saying that they had emphasised the importance of "Family study" therefore they are dropping everything except for the sunday meetings.
You folks know me....I dont make jokes on this forum even though some people may take me as one.
My mother is a "no nonsence" kinda a woman with zero humor.
but I still need confirmation .....has anyone heard of this? If it is so...I expected to spread like wildfire.
The climate within the watchtower is certainly changing.

THE CURRENT FADING OF BRAND NAME "THE WATCHTOWER"
by steve2 inthe current fading of brand name "the watchtower" & the rise, rise, rise of jw.org.
the watchtower as brand name is in the process of being imperceptibly faded from visibility in the organization.
who'd have thought you could make a watchtower fade and disappear?

Stop in the NAME of the law !
Jesus reveals the NAME of GOD as the authority, and charachter of God, and actively shares the nature of God in us, so God will be ALL in ALL. 2 peter 1:4
