100 years of Divine Direction

1972... IDENTIFYING THE "PROPHET" -- "So, does Jehovah
have a prophet to help them, to warn them of dangers and to declare things
to come? These questions can be answered in the affirmative. Who is this
prophet?...This "prophet" was not one man, but body of men and
women. It was the small group of footstep followers of Jesus Christ, known
at that time as International Bible Students. Today they are known as Jehovah's
Christian witnesses.......Of course, it is easy to say that this group acts
as a 'prophet' of God. It is another thing to prove it." THE WATCHTOWER
4/1/72 pg.197 (see Deuteronomy 18:21 )
1972... Yes, the time must come shortly that the nations will have to know
that" really a Prophet of Jehovah was among them". THE WATCHTOWER
4/1/72 pg 200
1971... The modern-day "Ezekiel"....commissioned to serve as the
mouthpiece and active agent of Jehovah....commissioned to speak in the Divine
name. : THE NATIONS SHALL KNOW THAT I AM JEHOVAH. PG.54-67
Surely as you can see they have claimed to be a "prophet" . As
the Bible tell us, lets test to see if they are a true "Prophet"
or a false "Prophet" Deu.18:21 tells us how!!
1897....."Our Lord, the appointed King, is now present, since October
1874," STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES, VOL.4 pg.621
1889 :...The 'battle of the great day of God Almighty' (Rev. 16:14) , which
will end in A.D. 1914 with the complete overthrow of earth's present rulership,
is already commenced." THE TIME IS AT HAND, pg.101 (1909) ed.
1914...."The present great war in Europe is the beginning of the Armageddon
of the Scriptures." PASTOR RUSSELL'S SERMONS, pg.676
1916....The Bible chronology herein presented show that the six great 1000
year day beginning with Adam are ended, and that the great 7th Day, the
1000 years of Christ's Reign, began in 1873." THE TIME IS AT HAND,
pg.2 (forward)
1918....Therefore we may confidently expect that 1925 will mark the return
of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the faithful prophets of old, particularly
those named by the Apostle in Hebrews 11, to the condition of human perfection."
MILLIONS NOW LIVING WILL NEVER DIE, pg.89
1922..."The date 1925 is even more distinctly indicated by the Scriptures
then 1914. " THE WATCHTOWER 9/1/22, pg.262
1923.."Our thought is, that 1925 is definitely settled by the Scriptures.As
to Noah,the Christian now has much more upon which to base his faith then
Noah had upon which to base his faith in a coming deluge." THE WATCHTOWER,
4/1/23 pg.106
1925..."The year 1925 is here. With great expectation Christians have
looked forward to this year. Many have confidently expected that all members
of the body Christ will be changed to heavenly glory during this year. This
may be accomplished. It may not be. In His own due time God will accomplish
His purposes concerning His people. Christians should not be so deeply concerned
about what may transpire this year." THE WATCHTOWER, 1/1/25 pg.3
Sept.1925.."It is to be expected that Satan will try to inject into
the minds of the consecrated, the thought that 1925 should see and end to
the work.: THE WATCHTOWER, pg 262
1926..."Some anticipated that the work would end in 1925, but the Lord
did not state so.THE WATCHTOWER, pg.232 The difficulty was that the friends
inflated their imaginations beyond reason; and that when their imaginations
burst asunder, they were inclined to throw away everything.: THE WATCHTOWER,1925,
pg.56
1931..."There was a measure of disappointment on the part of Jehovah's
faithful ones on earth concerning the years 1914, 1918, & 1925, which
disappointment lasted for a time..and they also learned to quit fixing dates."
VINDICATION, pg.338
1938.. "They had preached that in an early time God would overthrow
"Christendom". Many had emphasized the year 1925 as the date,and
then when that date did not materialize the date was moved up to 1932. Again,
1932 came and "Christendom" was not destroyed,and now it was discovered
that "Christendom" would be spared for a while longer for the
sake of the Jonadab class, and this made the proud "elective elder"
crowd very mad." THE WATCHTOWER 2/15/38 pg.54
1941.."Receiving the gift, the marching children clasped it to them,
not a toy or plaything for idle pleasure, but the Lord's provided instrument
for most effective work in the remaining months before Armageddon."
THE WATCHTOWER 9/15/41, pg.288
1968.."True, there have been those in times past who predicted an 'end
to the world' even announcing a specific date. Yet nothing happened. The
'end did not come'. They were guilty of false prophesying. Why? What was
missing?..Missing from such people were God's truths and the evidence that
He was using and guiding them." AWAKE 10/8/68, see Luke 21:18
1968...Why are you looking forward to 1975" THE WATCHTOWER 8/15/68
pg.494
ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE( Deu.18:21) ,IT TAKES ONLY ONE FALSE PROPHECY TO
BE A FALSE PROPHET, ARE ANY OF THESE FALSE?
Now read Jeremiah 14:14 May God Bless You
