How long have Jehovah's Witnesses been proclaiming the 1914 kingdom of Jesus?

Your well framed question reminds me of the many counseling sessions with couples who cannot see their own mistakes, and will point all the troubles upon someone else. (As to being "mad".....see my source below about one Jehovah Witness who became mad.) The Jehovah Witness's are so addicted to their camaraderie of " we are the only ones doing the will (or works) of Jehovah (the restored name, mind you) that they cannot see such common sense difficulties of their Arian Doctrines. The clear thinking of Watchtower of Babel, Galatians and Messenger of God (and many other posters to Jehovah Witness errors on YA R&S) cannot be fathomed by them.

They have been taught to accept newer or brighter light teachings, instead of seeing the old & failed teachings in the Org. For what they are. It is the "ah ha" moment, when a JW looks at the whole picture of the Watchtower puzzle that simply cannot fit within the reasoning taught in Scripture that they leave the false Jesus Christ and false gospel taught by the many past leaders in the Org & put their faith into Christ Jesus who is very God.

(if you are in America, think "UnderCover Boss" who, for a moment, joins the ranks of the commoner to show them He cares) dm.

Maybe they show they are mad at Jesus by taking His place as mediator. They can't pray to Jesus or talk to Him since praying is talking to. They have to rely on the messages from the headquarters in NY instead.

That is the definition of taking the place of in anyone's book but they don't or can't see that. That is what is disturbing to me. Clergy admit openly that they are not the mediator, except of course the Catholics with the belief that the pope is the mediator and all those that work for him.

JWs can only learn from Jesus but not communicate with him. But then the officers of the org will openly say they get information from Jesus? Confusing.

The org is just another pope if you ask me.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
