Its a religious cult called Jehovah's Witness. They believe that only the most worthy (20 000) people in the world will go to heaven - I wonder how many worthy people have died in the centuries before and how many places are still open aboard the space craft ??
They were called Bible Students. Our magazine, The Watchtower, Announcing Jehovah's Kingdom was originally called "Zion's Watchtower and Herald of Christ's Presence"
By far, - 'The Watchtower' - which announces Jehovah's already established Kingdom.It is distributed by Jehovah's Witnesses.As of 2012, The Watchtower is published in 195 different languages. This in itself is unmatched.There are well over 42 million issues distributed each month. (Thus over 500 million a year.)The Watchtower has been in production for well over 100 years.In second place, following in its heels, is it's companion magazine, known as 'Awake'; with over 41 million issues monthly, in 84 different languages.Additionally, about 100 million books and Bibles are printed each year.
Your neighbor is a member of a religious organization informally called Jehovah's Witnesses. He/she is proselytizing you; the desire is to get you interested in that religion and eventually join. The group is formally known as The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.
A watchtower was "une tour de guet" in French (from verb "guetter", to watch).

The magazine of the Jehovah's Witnesses was founded in July 1879 by Charles Taze Russell. It was originally called Zion's Watch Tower and Herald of Christ's Presence. These days, the publication is written by an official "Writing Committee," comprised of members of the Jehovah's Witnesses religion who have been chosen for this task. Articles generally are not signed, so we do not know the names of the people who contribute to the magazine.
The Watchtower has never claimed to be a "prophet of God" and has never pronounced any prophecies connected with any of those dates.As a bible based magazine is that MENTIONED some of the dates in the question and attempted, with varying degrees of success, to explain the meanings or interpretations of bible prophecies.1914 remains for modern day Jehovah's Witnesses a key date as they believe it is the date that Jesus came into invisible kingdom power in heaven.Whilst it is true that the literal paper magazine called The Watchtower has never, to my knowledge, claimed that it is a 'prophet of God', (as an inanimate object how could it) the people who write and approve the printed words that go in to the aforementioned magazine have stated the following in the Watchtower 1st April 1972,''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?He had a "prophet" to warn them. This "prophet" was not one man, but was a 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''To all intents and purposes 'The Watchtower magazine' or the phrase 'The Watchtower' are synonymous with Jehovah's Witnesses. Therefore what the questioner seems to be asking is how come The Watchtower, or Jehovah's Witnesses claim to be 'prophets' and yet many predictions based on dates have not come to fruition in the way they were expected and predicted to.
