    ``Type" and ``Antitype:" a real blast from the past! Haven't seen these expressions since Freddie's heyday! And, given the current state of diminished imaginative capacity in Writing, we're unlikely to. Freddie's real Magnum Opus in the genre was the hallocinogenic You May Survive Armageddeon into God's New World, which purported to explain (i believe) 43 of them!

    The last time they used the "antitype"-"type" language seems to have been in 1999.

    type and antitype are definitely Adventist terminology.

    All this was used to establish the legitimacy, so-called of the WTS, as the only group with God's backing. These prophecies if fulfilled on them alone proved that in their minds.

    I hear that the members of the governing body do all of their important thinking on the toilet...

    That's because they're part of the "John" class.

    The John class! Brilliant! Or do you mean, the modern-day John class?

    Do you notice that the "greater fulfillment" always seem to revolve around the Jehovah's Witnesses? ALL of the book of Isaiah refers to something related to the JW religion. "Greater fulfillment" is code for "everything pictures us (JWs)."

    Funny how they always,, think everything in the bible is about "them".And since it is about "them" it has got to be the "greater" fullfillment.
