    The WBTS teaches a overlapping (generation) will not pass away since 1914 right?

    what is your personal genealogy.

    (1) My Great Grand Father was born in 1901. He became active with the Bible students around 1910.

    (2) His son, my Grand Father was born in 1921.

    (3) His son, my father was born in 1948.

    (4) I was born in 1977.

    (5)My first chilas was born in 2002.

    What is your family generation count since 1914? I want to find an average on the visitors to this site.

    My Grandfather was born in 1898 , My Grandmother in 1912

    My Mom was born in 1935

    ,

    ,

    My grandfather never went to school, My grandmother only went as far as the third grade

    My mom dropped out of the 9th grade after they morgaged the farm for her surgery

    she had to work as a housekeeper to help pay the morgage off

    .

    .

    Yet they were much smarter than I could ever be

    They didn't fall for a fake smile that would

    try and convince them that Black folks should " Wait on the Kingdom"

    for a better day

    .

    .

    Sorry but I don't see any fun in my stupidity

    anyway BTTT

    My husbands grandmother was born in 1912

    My father was born in 1938

    I was born in 1965

    My daughter was born in 2000

    4 generations. My Husband and I have no grandparents left alive and my children have already lost one of theirs.

    The overlapping generation teaching is a travesty and shameful.
