My favourite: (Job 42:16) “After this Job lived for 140 years, and he saw his children and his grandchildren - four generations.” 140 divided by 4 = 35.
s3: It is interesting to note, that among the "partakers" the anointed heavies, the Brooklyn core, such a family idea of generation is absent.
Perhaps it is for this estrangement that they have chosen to make the generation of 1914 "the generation of the Anointed ones".
All these groups live concurrently anyway, and wt had the choice to pick 1) the general population, the condemned world, to die at Armageddon,
2) the [other] sheep that will never die
3) themselves, the partakers, who will join Jesus in heaven early before the GT to fight. now
Jesus said that "this generation will not pass away until all these things have occurred". so
it could not be the sheep, because they will never pass away.
it could not be the anointed, because they will have to pass away, early upwardly to be in time in heaven to train and then fight at Armageddon.the most important feature of the "all"
A nun just died r.i.p. who was 10 years old in 1914. having no overlapping descendants either.
the overlapping group fix is the least of wt's doctrinal problems.
