    If Christ's " your kingdom come" came in 1914, we would be cheated out of 106 years in perfect paradise, just so the governing body can govern among his enemies.

    wt writers are preparing a similar trick for the end of the millennium. They consistently say that the chaos of the final test will happen at the end of the 1000 years, never stating ing: after that period is ended.

    we writers are killjoys, taking away quality time, coming and going. cunningly conning.

    Their doctrine about the 1,000 years is a complete mess with only very superficial biblical ‘support’. They do not believe the 1,000 years began in 1914, even though they believe Jesus began ruling then. They ‘justify’ this belief on the basis of Jesus described as sitting or standing at various times (because that’s how math works). They start the 1,000 years from Satan being bound, though they ignore the fact that Revelation says Satan is bound so he can’t mislead the nations that exist throughout the entire 1,000 years and are biblically synonymous with Gog and Magog (but not Gog of Magog). They also ignore the fact that it is the great crowd from all nations who rule as kings and priests for the 1,000 years, whereas the 144,000 would rule as kings (but not priests) forever.
