JC and Conundrum. Good "non answers".
Again, answer the question, Yes or No.

Linedancer, and all you other good little JW's don't want to answer because, considering the new light on the 1914 generation, the answer would logically be "Yes"

Liveforever, yea, nobody knows but the Witnesses sure have thrown around enough dates and time periods. And all you guys just suck it up.
WHT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WHEN THEY CHANGE "THE TRUTH" AGAIN??

The Society just bought themselves time, as the 1914 generation was about to die off.
It could be 1,000 years.
Now they are trying to wiggle the "Noah time frame" into the picture.
You guys just suck it up. Pathetic.

habibti, there ya go. An honest answer!!
It could be 100 or 1000 years.
To those who don't know me, I am an ex-JW, disfellowsipped and an apostate.
There goes your sense of urgency.
Everything that you are being told is the "TRUTH" could change at the whim of the Society.
Hey, what if they said they were wrong about the trinity? Think about it!

JC believes in the Bible, a book he cannot prove is true and Jesus a person who no one can prove even existed.

Linedancer, you know full well that I am disfellowshipped and an apostate.
By the way, I had one of my questions removed. Nice going JW's: No opposing views will be tolerated.
Ya' know, lately, since the Society is flip flopping like a Bass in a Boat, it's hard to know exactly what an opposing view is.

SUGARLIPS, So how long ago was Zephaniah written? With the new "open ended" time, you may be waiting as long as he has.

My interpretation of the "new light"is that it could be 10, 100 or 1000 away.
The Noah thing is another attempt to make the date close and still not commit. No more precise "1975" like predictions for the Witnesses.
The notion that was preached for over 100 years by JW's about the 1914 generation was another flase predicition, intended to predict when Armageddon would come.

LINEDANCER AND ALL JW's, anyone that said before 1995 that “this generation” apparently refers to the peoples of earth who see the sign of Christ’s presence but fail to mend their ways. “, would have been called an apostate. Just wait until the "truth" changs again. I anxious to see whats next.

MOISES: Your list of Religions falling apart didn'tmention your own. The JW's chnageing a major doctrine? Wow!
Hey, God knew, didn't he? I guess he didn't tell the slave.
What was the point? Think about it. The Society is always trying to create a sense of urgency with some prediction that never happens or new light that saves the from another embarrassment.
Why do they encourage you not to look at apostate material? Because they realize their followers are so weakminded because they unquestionably swallow every flip flop and "new light", they are more vulnerable than most to any opposing thought.
Hey, if I had all you "sheep" under my control, I'd worry about losing you th the next snake oil salesman too.

We know that the 1914 prophecy failed, i noticed they speak about the 2ND presence of Jesus happened in 1914 well as the prophet spoke it he prophesied Armageddon not the second coming, matter of fact if Jesus second coming came why do they still celebrate the memorial? As the lightning shines from the east to the west so shall the presence of the son of man will be, all eyes will see him and every knee will bend, did you see him, well I must of missed that one. sure they are trying to shift that date but will not come out with it fully as in the past, they may put it out in the KH so when it does not come about they can blame it on some over jealous brothers.

On another answer some time ago, this JW female said they know when Armageddon is coming. They go preaching door to door all the time but when the Governing Body notifies the Elders to stop the preaching work and let no one go door to door; then the end is coming. This JW said its the same as when Noah shut the doors of the Ark. Then destruction will come upon all the evil people of the world. They are waiting for the word from the Governing Body in New York. Maybe some other people remember this answer from that JW.

It's good to see from your extended responses that you really didn't want an answer to your question. You just thought you had an opportunity to "dump" on Jehovah's Witnesses. Your ulterior motive has become crystal clear.
Therefore, your insincere question does not merit an answer from me, other than that of the Lord Jesus Christ himself:
"Keep on the watch!" (Matthew 24:42)
"Concerning that day and that hour nobody knows, neither the angels of heaven nor the Son, but only the Father." (Mark 13:32)
Nevertheless, "Keep on the watch!" (Matthew 25:13)
We don't know the Day, but we are to live as if it is Today. Serving God and doing the right thing benefits Christians, EVERY day.
And regardless of when Armageddon comes, anyone's life could end at any time, before Armageddon. So, NOW is the time to serve God.

No one knows. It could be tomorrow or a hundred years from now. I don't see how any on the planet could survive for that long the way we are going.
Jesus told us he did not know exactly when. We should not try to be better than Jesus. Humans being human always like to jump the gun, even some JWs. Only Jehovah knows and will in exactly the proper time. Jesus told us this after describing the situation in the world before it occurred in Matthew chapter 24 and toward the last, told us about only Jehovah calling the time just like in Noah's day. When He says time's up, it is up.
2Peter 3:9,10 shows why He has delayed. He is not slow but desires all who will to attain repentance.
And just to be clear-- if we really were in charge of taking off questions, you and your buddies would not be here. I get tired of seeing your lies. I can understand lies from people who do not know the difference, you do.

Ha ha ha you are so confident of yourself.....don´t you see how all religions are cracking?
Catholics falling down at the speed of thoughts
protestants killing each other for the folks and the "tithings"
Muslims killing ex-president and creating disturbs
buddist monks prtesting in myanmar
and everywhere where religion has influence in problem while the countries without religion growing better exactly what the bible says in Revelation 17 and 18 and the book only have 22 chapters so the 78% of the book already happened.
all religions are falling.....

No man knows the time when the end is coming. Only the Heavenly Father knows. That's why we continue to keep on the watch. -Matthew 24:36-42

No. Not likely.
Matthew 24:37-39. Noah had only 120 years. That could only be the most...so 1914 to 2034. But it is not derived by date nor by the Bible, but by Jehovah's will so the date cannot be found by using Bible information.

I sense that perhaps you are hoping that there is no chance it could happen in your lifetime...because I saw you ask a very similiar question this afternoon. It is good though that you are thinking about it...hopefully that may bring you to do the right thing :-)

No one knows.....the signs mentioned at Matthew 5 have been happening with more frequency. The cry of Peace and Security will be soon...Also the destruction of almost all religions...And this forum is helping that prophecy along.
Politics will soon turn on religion and end it...then where will you be?
Has your faith taught you this?
It's in the bible.
Your clergy must have fallen short in teaching the truth.
