Jeffro, 605 or 607, it does not matter. Chronology from back then wasn't that accurate as they didn't keep good records. If chronology mattered, they would have started counting years when Adam was created or at the flood.

Interesting Find with Chronology
by Kelley959 ini hope this is in the right area.
i've been studying the 2520 days/years 607/587/586 debacle.
for a while now i have felt 1914 was wrong.

587 is correct, so is 607 and so is 1914. Why do you all make is so difficult?
Jerusalem was destroyed in 587.
Zedekiah was king for 11 years starting in 598.
Jehoikim was king for 11 years starting around610.
Dan 1:1 says "In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it." And Daniel was taken captive.
The 3rd year of Jehoiakim was 607 That started the 70 years of captivity that ended in 537. That also started the 7 times when the kings sitting on the throne of Jehovah would cease being sovereign rulers. That would last 2520 years or 7 times. And that would end in 1914 when Jesus would be sovereign king on Jehovah's throne in heavenly Jerusalem.

by hoser inwhile we are talking about economic stimulus i thought i’d bring up the $15 minimum wage.

I'm against raising the minimum because it does nothing. It raises everything to the next level and we are where we are at now.

What is your status (as of today) as a Jehovah's Witness?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inactive believer...still attend meetings, go out in field service, believe it's ''the truth''.
active non-believer... go to meetings and field service to please family... living a double life .
inactive believer...don't attend meetings but believe it's the truth, one day might go back to kingdom hall.

#3. I think meetings and assemblies are a waste of time. Online is better. This covid shutdown has been good for the fade. I stopped attending in Sept 2019. I never got the info for the zoom meetings. In Feb an elder called and wanted to talk to me but I ignored that. I felt that I don't need to burn any bridges, I just don't need to cross them either.

the drama from 2015 wasn't that bad.

The Watchtower has the most accurately based belief as to Jesus so it won't be warped.

1969 "fact": You will never grow old in this present system of things
by Ding inawake!
"if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.
because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers.

I stopped the door to door work when they came out with these door bell cameras and porch pirates made the news. I don't want to be recorded or spoken to through a camera. I don't like talking through a peep hole. And I don't want to be on camera or recorded when a package comes up missing for some reason.

the gaping hole in this week's weak wt study.
by waton infor pimi pimo persons: give us one text that says those aspiring to everlasting life should not partake of the bread and wine.
in the article, the whole proposition of refusing the emblems is based on the personal experience of one brother in the 1930s.!
all jws partook.

Vidqun:
"To the contrary, note what Jesus says of you if you don't partake: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day” (cf. John 6:48-54 ESV)."
Jesus did not mean that literally that people have to eat and drink anything to get life.
