Why does the Watchtower Society try to be very secretive and often lie about their history to their innocent truth seeking members?
Chiddle
*Extension of question:
An example of this is:
"But bear in mind that the end of 1914 is not the date for the beginning, but for the end of the time of trouble. Zion's Watch Tower 1894 July 15 p.226
"…Jehovah's Witnesses pointed to the year 1914, decades in advance, as marking the start of "the conclusion of the system of things." Awake! 1973 January 22 p.8
Jehovah's Witness AnswerIt doesn't. The Watchotwer has published many articles about its publishing history, past mistakes and the evolution of its scriptural explanations. For example regarding the revision expections connected to 1914, the book "Jehovah's Witnesses Proclaimers of God's Kingdom" Pub. 1993 (WTBS) Page 635 paragraph 5 quotes the Watchtower April 15, 1916 which admitted "The Lord did not say that the Church would all be glorified by 1914. We merely inferrred it and, evidently, erred" [end quote].Wiki User
