Dear JC,
I won't say "ditto my other answers to you this morning".
Rather I will tell you that 30 some years ago when I was very lonely, didn't have a car and lived 10 minutes away from a jw relative, I used to let her come to do "Bible" studies with me. She wouldn't come to see me for any other reason.
As the year 1975 approached she gave me some explanation about the year being derived from the number of steps to the Pyramids or something along those lines.
Every time I ask a jw about something they tell me that their answer comes from the Bible. When I tell them I have read the Bible and their answer is not according to the Bible, it seems they report back to the Watchtower and suddenly new material gets published.
I must say that they have a very quick turnaround. When I told jws about studying real money to be able to detect counterfeit money they ran an article about that same thing in the Watchtower.

the Bible doesn't say 1975 but it does, through a code, say 1914. Bear with me, because I learnt this not from the JW's but from scientists who study the bible codes.
This is from Daniel 4:16-25
It talks about a Tree. This tree symbolizes the kingdom of God. It says it will be cut down when Jerusalem gets destroyed in 607 BCE. Daniel prophesized that this Tree will remain cut down for a period of 7 Times (Daniel is interpreting a dream that King Nabuchadnezzar had).
Now, 7 Times = 7 years (according to Jewish historians). So we take 360 days (as it was in those times) x 7=2,520 days.
The biblical rule of 1 day = 1 year as found in Ezekiel 4:6,7 and Numbers 14:34 to name just a few, makes us logically assume that 2,520 days are actually years.
So, starting from 607 BCE and counting downwards at first to 1CE we have 606 years. Then just add the rest, which is 1,914 years, and we get 1914.
This is when the Jesus will take over the Kingdom in Heaven and throw Satan down to earth. This is when all the things Jesus spoke about in the Gospels were going to start taking place aka, 'wars, pestilences, etc' you can find it in Matthew about the last days. it is interesting that in that year 1914 everything changed dramatically, notably the first world war started. Interesting study.

JC Redding, you seem quite infactuated with Jehovah's Witnesses so why not take on their offer to a free home Bible study and they arrange your personal studies when it suits you best.
Please go to the link in sources where you can get details from the official Jehovah's Witnesses site.
With your personal home study you can ask all your questions galore and have them answered. It costs nothing and if you are truly interested then I am sure you will have no objection
Thank you.
Sorry if I deny your request for a direct answer but looking at your previous questions and your replies you are wanting a fight and not wanting to know the truth.
As an affiliate of Jehovah's Witnesses it would be scriptural wrong to throw my pearls in this way.

get ready for all the circular logic and a bunch of links to the WT site...
I think it is a contest to see who can put the most links to the WT site in one answer
It's not in the bible, and I always wonder what they thought would happen after their prediction didn't come true. Now they are saying it was never predicted.

Not in the bible and neither are any of their predictions which have all proven to be false.
