I think they are untying themselves from chronology as we speak, truthseeker. How many Witnesses have really understood the full implications of the foibles recorded in the Proclaimers book? How many could explain what the purpose for Beth-Sarim was? The significance of 1925, 1874, 1878?
The 1914 year is the only one left. Few Witnesses can even explain what Daniel 4 is supposed to be prophesying without reading it to someone from a book, and I don't mean the Bible. Fewer still can begin to explain why Luke 21:24 should apply to Daniel chapter 4.
Now there is no need for the anointing to stop, ever. The 144,000 becomes a figurative number but still a separate class from the deeply ingrained but completely baseless "other sheep" class. Thirty years later we read that the understanding that 144,000 was a literal number is due to shortsightedness and "a misunderstanding of the eventual outworking of Jehovah's grand purposes for the earth, soon to come. Aren't we grateful that Jehovah's organization is refined over time? In this way we can unitedly be brought closer to a full understanding of Jehovah's wonderful will and purposes."
Blech!
