The story of my life (part 9- 1975: the date comes)

    In a way, I miss those days, when we would go to an assembly, "knowing" that some new truth was to be revealed, and then staying up as late as we could to read, cover to cover, the latest revelations from Jehovah, at the gracious hands of His anointed Governing Body.

    I miss them too, Craig. I miss the joy of coming across some nuance of scripture which I had never considered before, and to be with others who were just as keen to learn and to share as I was. But my doubts about 1975 arose the year before when an invitation went out to the congregations for pioneers to join Bethel for a three-year project which would double the size of the printing works and home. But what about Armageddon ? Jehovah's chariot is always on the move...and so I went, but cognitive dissonance had already set in.
