Live Forever Chapter 18 (1989)
“The End of the World” Is at Hand!
8 After drawing attention to the many things that have marked the period from 1914 onward, Jesus said: “This generation will by no means pass away until all these things [including the end of this system] occur.” (Matthew 24:34, 14) Which generation did Jesus mean? He meant the generation of people who were living in 1914. Those persons yet remaining of that generation are now very old. However, some of them will still be alive to see the end of this wicked system. So of this we can be certain: Shortly now there will be a sudden end to all wickedness and wicked people at Armageddon.

This generation at Matthew 24:34 previously defined as a typical human lifespan, since Jesus parousia in 1914, redefined as a class of people displaying certain characteristics for an indefinite period of time....
Therefore, in the final fulfillment of Jesus’ prophecy today, “this generation” apparently refers to the peoples of earth who see the sign of Christ’s presence but fail to mend their ways

This Generation redefined to refer to a new generation of anointed who's lives overlap with the anointed who were an hand when the sign began to become evident in 1914
Yes, they are false prophets. Their doctrines change and they see it as a new light. Well, Jehovah had a few "new lights" just in past 10 years....
ReplyDeleteThe problem is that the "new light" should never cancel the "old light". If the old light was preached as the only truth, then the new light just adds to the old light and makes the old light clear. Yet Witnesses have to get rid of all old books because the information in them is not the "truth" anymore. Like the book " you can live forever in PAradise on earth". In that book they falsly prophecied that the generation 1914 will never die off before the armageddon comes.... I guess they serve a schizophrenic god- the devil himself.
It is a sad situation with them.
Also their teaching on Israel... I just bought and read the bopok by Steve Denoon " Israel are they still God's people?" and in that book the author is explaining how JW's are false prophets and who is that "Israel" and who are the 144000. You may want to search out for this book- it just came out recently and it is so good!!!
Anyway, we need to keep warning people aboput this cult.
