Drinking with the Confirmed Drunkards
Matthew 24
48 “But if ever that evil slave should say in his heart, ‘My master is delaying,’ 49 and should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards, 50 the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know, 51 and will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his part with the hypocrites. There is where [his] weeping and the gnashing of [his] teeth will be.
So who are these drunkards?
and what does it mean to drink with them?
There are some drunkards mentioned elsewhere in the bible:
Isaiah 28
1 Woe to the eminent crown of the drunkards of E´phra·im, and the fading blossom of its decoration of beauty that is upon the head of the fertile valley of those overpowered by wine!
It is interesting to note that these drunkards have an eminent crown and so they must have more importance than most. In fact if they have a crown they are most likely kings.
This is Isaiah writing though and so should he be referring to his contemporaries?
A little further on in the scripture he mentions something which shows that he is actually referring to a time after Jesus Christ is ressurected.
Isaiah 28
16 therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “Here I am laying as a foundation in Zion a stone, a tried stone, the precious corner of a sure foundation. No one exercising faith will get panicky.
Even a mediocre bible student should recognize that the precious corner of a sure foundation is a reference to Jesus Christ. Notice in the verse above however, that Isaiah is quoting Jehovah as saying this will be "a tried stone".
Jesus passed his trial when he was manifested on the earth as a man and was then resurrected to his place in heaven.
Carefull contemplation should help us realize that the drunkard kings being referenced at the start of the chapter are kings in existance after Jesus Christ's ressurection.
Could they be pagan Kings or presidents and priministers of countries or nations?
Not according to Isaiah:
Isaiah 28
14 Therefore hear the word of Jehovah, YOU braggarts, YOU rulers of this people who are in Jerusalem:
Isaiah makes it very clear that these are kings (rulers) of God's people living in a time period after Jesus Christs ressurection. Could he have been taling about 1st Century Christians and or Apostles?
Isaiah also mentions that they have "concealed themselves in falsehood" (a lie) and also made a "covenant with death".
Isaiah 28
15 Because YOU men have said: “We have concluded a covenant with Death; and with She´ol we have effected a vision; the overflowing flash flood, in case it should pass through, will not come to us, for we have made a lie our refuge and in falsehood we have concealed ourselves”;
Did the 1st Century Christians conceal themselves in a lie or make a covenant with death?
Nothing like that is recorded in the bible or in 1st Century history so could it be later day 21st Century Christians?
To better understand the lie and the covenant with death please read and understand the following article which can be found on this same blog at the following link:
A letter to all Jehovah's Witnesses
The annointed kings of God's people have made a covenant with death and are concealed in a lie. How did this happen and why does Jehovah allow his people to continue operating in such an erroneous way?
The Apostle Paul answers the question:
2nd Thessalonians 2
9 But the lawless one’s presence is according to the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and portents 10 and with every unrighteous deception for those who are perishing, as a retribution because they did not accept the love of the truth that they might be saved. 11 So that is why God lets an operation of error go to them, that they may get to believing the lie, 12 in order that they all may be judged because they did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness.
Satan had a motive for sowing weeds in amoung the wheat.
Did you think that Satans motive might be for a reason more benevolent than this?
Satan has almost acheived every motive for which he sowed those weeds.
It will only be a small remnant of anointed who recognise this:
This is revealed in the continuation of the verses in 2 Thessalonians above:
13 However, we are obligated to thank God always for YOU, brothers loved by Jehovah, because God selected YOU from [the] beginning for salvation by sanctifying YOU with spirit and by YOUR faith in the truth. 14 To this very destiny he called YOU through the good news we declare, for the purpose of acquiring the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
It is their selection by God and also by their own faith in the truth that they can see through the deception and lies propagated by the drunkards who have been overcome and undermined by the operation of Satans weeds.
There is no other candidate for these drunkards other than the Governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses and the WatchTower, Bible and Tract Society.
You can be certain they think they are wise and rich and do not need any admonishments from me.
What though does it mean to drink with them?
If you are a faithfull anointed one loyal to Jesus Christ would you like to celebrate the memorial of his death through an arrangement made by these drunkards who have made a covenant with death, told lies, undermined Jesus Christs Sovereignty and lifted themselves up above his station right inside the holy temple?
Of course not!
So under these circumstances how does a loyal anointed one celebrate the memorial of Jesus Christs death?
Jesus Christ personally takes care of this himself and explained how this would take place for those loyal ones who can see through the deceit:
Revelation 3
18 I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire that you may become rich, and white outer garments that you may become dressed and that the shame of your nakedness may not become manifested, and eyesalve to rub in your eyes that you may see.
19 “‘All those for whom I have affection I reprove and discipline. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Look! I am standing at the door and knocking. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into his [house] and take the evening meal with him and he with me. 21 To the one that conquers I will grant to sit down with me on my throne, even as I conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22 Let the one who has an ear hear what the spirit says to the congregations.’”
Jesus Christ himself will personally take care of the memorial by coming into the very house of those loyal to him and taking the evening meal there.
What a beautiful provision to make considering all the awful deceits, lies, injustices and hypocricies those loyal to him have had to endure.
You can be certain that it is those who celebrate the memorial inside the arrangement provided at Kingdom Halls of Jehovah's Witnesses who are the ones who will be "drinking with the confirmed drunkards".
It is they who will finally realise that what I have said here is absolutely true, giving them much cause to weep and gnash their teeth.
Celebrating the memorial with a part of God's organization who have prostituted themselves in such an evil way is an enormous act of spiritual fornication.
Revelation 17
“Come, I will show you the judgment upon the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, whereas those who inhabit the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”
If you are an anointed one with the hope of being a king over the earth please do not celebrate the memorial on April 12th in the Kingdom Hall arrangement.
If you have read and understood this you are also obliged to inform those who you suspect might be of the anointed. Either personally or on an Internet forum to which you are a registered member.

Letter to the Governing Body 16 January 2003
The Governing Body
25 Columbia Heights
Brooklyn, NY.
11201-2483 U.S.A.
16 January 2003
Dear Brothers,
I am a publisher in the Xxxxxxxxx Congregation.
It was as a resident of Xxxxxxxxxx that I learned the truth.
My faith has become extremely strong, however the reason why has become a burden for me.
This unusual statement will only be understood if you are able to read this letter in its entirety.
In reading its entirety my hope is that you will also understand why I could not find any relief other than going directly to the Governing Body and remaining discreet.
The reason is some knowledge of which I am convinced. It is through the benefit of this knowledge that my faith has greatly increased.
Along with much prayerful consideration this is what compels me to share it with you.
Through my study of the materials provided by the discrete slave I also have realised this would require a small adjustment in thinking which in turn should realize a large benefit.
It is the scriptures themselves, which have given me the courage to even approach you.
Ephesians 4:11-14 explains that it is through readjustments in knowledge that we can all reach the measure of stature that belongs to the fullness of Christ.
I would prefer to deliver an oral explanation of this however am uncertain how an audience with you could be obtained. To explain this in much detail would require a very lengthy letter so should you be interested in hearing any elaborations or require additional information I can easily be reached at the telephone number or address noted at the start of this letter.
In the hope that I have your attention I shall now make a written explanation:
In the January 1, 2000 Watchtower magazine on page 8 paragraph 10 it states "There is strong evidence that Satan and his demonic hordes were cast out of heaven following that year." The evidence being referred to is the "trouble filled 20th Century which provides clear proof of Satan’s activity." There indeed has been much shed blood.
There are several scriptures which describe, "Satan’s hurling down to Earth" either directly mentioning additional evidence or alluding to some.
By seeking for this evidence I believe a more exact date of "Satan’s hurling down" could be ascertained.
One of the most credible sources for more evidence of "Satan’s hurling down" is a statement made by Jesus Christ himself at Luke 10:18 "At this he said to them: "I began to behold Satan already fallen like lightning from heaven"".
It is very interesting that Jesus would say this.
If "all scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness" then in what way is Luke 10:18 beneficial?
If it could be found that Satan did indeed "fall like lightning from heaven" then this would add a large amount of credibility to Jesus’ own words and be of awesome benefit in setting things straight.
Why?
The scriptures at Ps 110:1,2 and Rev 12:10 closely associate the "hurling down of Satan" with the establishment of Jesus’ Kingdom rule from heaven.
If undeniable physical evidence of this could be found in the secular histories which have been unwittingly left in the public record it should add much greater weight to the Kingdom message now being preached.
Not only should this increase the faith and zeal of Jehovah’s own Witnesses but also those who may be doubting that Jesus is presently ruling as our King from heaven should now be convinced.
This knowledge should lead to the speeding up of the harvest work as we approach the end of this wicked system.
Another benefit is that all Religious Leaders in Christendom will be unable to object to the undeniable and tangible evidence! This extends to all the National Leaders and people also and should set this matter of sovereignty straight with them. – Isaiah 2:4
They will have to know!
This would bring much glory to Jehovah’s name leading to the further vindication of his sovereignty.
As the beneficial results, which could be obtained, are so very sizeable it supports that a diligent search through the historical record for these physical manifestations of "Satan’s hurling down" should be undertaken with much zeal. Like digging for hid treasure.
What to search for though?
If "Satan’s hurling down" was identical to ordinary lightning then it could not be found. If this were the case, Jesus’ words at Luke 10:18 would be wasted in regard to any expected physical manifestation or the use of his words as a sign for the event towards which the writings of the Bible lead.
However, if it was indeed Jesus’ intention that this manifestation should be found and linked to the arrival of his Kingdom then some very extraordinary manifestation of lightning should somewhere be recorded in secular history around the year 1914 for all to find.
I have been unable to find anything of significance in the way of lightning from heaven in the year 1914 and the several years that follow.
There are some well-known scriptures however, which encourage me to look for this evidence in the years previous to 1914.
These scriptures are as follows:
Ps 110:1 "Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet."
Rev 12:10 "Now has come to pass the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God the authority of his Christ because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down."
Each of these scriptures delivers the rather blatant message that Satan would be "hurled down" before Jesus took his throne. Especially when read separately from the context of any other scripture where contiguity may be assumed.
If this extraordinary physical manifestation could be found previous to 1914 a small readjustment in knowledge may be well justified especially in consideration of the size of the benefit and it’s corroboration with Jesus’ own words and these two scriptures.
It is interesting to note in the scripture at Psalm 110:1 that Jehovah himself is indicating a large involvement in the "hurling down" or placing of Jesus’ enemies at his feet.
It is therefore likely that Jehovah’s own chariot would make an approach to the earth at this time and the glory of Jehovah would be evident.
Physical evidences of this as described by the prophet Ezekiel in the first chapter of his book may also be recorded in secular history and closely related to the manifestation of lightning which we expect to find from Jesus’ statement at Luke 10:18. The discovery of these evidences would add great weight to Ezekiel’s first chapter proving that it also has been of extraordinary benefit in setting matters straight.
In fact the discovery of these evidences would indeed seem to be unsealing a beautiful pattern of great wisdom.
By searching through history immediately previous to 1914 in the very public record on the Internet the expected physical manifestations of "Satan’s hurling down" are to be found in extraordinary abundance. This abundance of evidence convinces me that coincidence can be completely overruled.
Several years before 1914 a very powerful flash of light was responsible for causing the immediate scorching of over 200 square kilometres of trees initiating an even larger forest fire. At almost the same time an explosion uprooted and blew down approximately eighty million of these trees in a radius of about 30 to 40 kilometres, approximately the size of the City of London.
Certainly this lightning is well beyond the ordinary and worthy of further examination, especially considering the reasons for expecting its discovery and still yet actually finding it!
To this very day no one has concluded a satisfactory or generally accepted scientific explanation for the cause although many theories have been offered.
The motives for their investigations however are not driven by a desire for spiritual advancement to reach the measure of stature that belongs to the fullness of Christ.
It is interesting that it appears no one else has made any direct biblical connection although many of the eyewitness testimonies give evidence they felt something of a divine nature was then occurring.
The date of this occurrence was June 30th 1908 in a remote region of Russia known as Tunguska.
This was 6 years previous to the time Jesus took his throne, enough time for Satan to foment the earthly situations that lead to the start of World War One.
It is my hope that should you have reached this far in the letter that you would already be convinced of a necessity to explore this to a satisfactory conclusion in your own minds so that you might prove to yourselves whether it is the will of God at work here. - Ro12:2
If your interest is still captured I would like to deliver some further findings, in regard to this event, which are extraordinarily profound. I will attempt to test the findings in the testimonies against seemingly relevant scriptures all of which you should examine. - 1Cor2:15
This extraordinarily powerful flash of lightning and explosion was preceded by the movement towards the earth of a visible object.
If the rationales in this letter are to be correct then it stands to reason the identity of the object should be Satan himself.
Another very reasonable conclusion is that should the proper identification of this object be Jehovah’s will, then his word the bible is the only source of reference from which to do this and test it’s veracity with success. –Job 28:12; Proverbs 1:7
If perhaps you think these rationales a little far fetched then it would be a good time to quote a very comforting scripture at 1 Corinthians 2:9 "But just as it is written: "Eye has not seen and ear has not heard, neither have there been conceived in the heart of man the things that God has prepared for those that love him"".
It is at this point in the letter that an examination of scriptures should be done to determine what evidences in Jehovah’s inspired word do exist with which to test the physical identification of Satan:
Isaiah 14:12 --- Very Bright / Shining
"O how you have fallen from heaven, you shining one, son of the dawn! How you have been cut down to the earth, you who were disabling the nations!"
The physical manifestation in this scripture is that Satan should be very shiny and bright, perhaps difficult to look at with the naked eye. It is interesting the manifestation is discovered in a verse, which describes his eventual "hurling to earth".
(Compare also Ezekiel 28:17)
1 Peter 5:8 --- Roaring / Very loud and frightening / Movement not ballistic
" Keep your senses, be watchful. Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone."
The physical manifestation here is the noise of roaring which we should expect to be very loud and frightening. It also mentions that he "walks" so we could expect that his movements are self-directed although in this situation he is subject against his will to Jesus and Jehovah. Scientists would be expecting objects that approach the earth to be ballistic in nature not perceiving these may be sentient. It is therefore reasonable to assume their scientific examination should provide evidence of their inability to agree on the objects ballistic nature.
Ezekiel 28:13 (NWT) --- Beauty / Setting and Sockets
"In Eden, the garden of God, you proved to be. Every precious stone was your covering, ruby, topaz, and jasper; chrysolite, onyx and jade; sapphire, turquoise and emerald; and of gold was the workmanship of your settings and sockets in you. In the day of your being created they were made ready."
From this scripture it is obvious that an object of great beauty could be expected. Another physical manifestation mentioned here is the "settings and sockets". It is difficult to imagine however what physical shape "settings and sockets" could represent, it is for this reason the very popular King James Version becomes useful as its description provides a more identifiable manifestation as follows:
Ezekiel 28:13 (KJV) --- Beauty / Pipes / Taboret (Drum or Cylinder)
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy taborets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Instead of "settings and sockets" the KJV translates as "taborets and pipes".
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines "taboret" as follows:
Main Entry: tab·o·ret
Variant(s): or tab·ou·ret /"ta-b&-'ret, -'rA/
Function: noun
Etymology: French tabouret, literally, small drum, from Middle French, diminutive of tabor, tabour drumDate: 1630
1: a cylindrical seat or stool without arms or back
2: a small portable stand or cabinet
I hope you will agree that a pipe or cylindrical drum is a physical manifestation that is easier to envision or identify than a setting or socket. In fact if the object is indeed pipe or cylindrical shaped the coincidence is too large to spend much time with contentions over the translation. In this case the end should indeed justify the means. Should this identify the object then it becomes difficult to deny that it was the intention of the inspired scriptures to allow for this. Instead it should become a beautiful testimony to Jehovah’s Wisdom.
The weight of the message would be increased with those who doubt should the evidence be found in a translation other than the NWT. They cannot deny. They will have to know.
In conclusion it should be expected that a pipe or cylindrical object, shining very brightly and accompanied by loud roaring yet also not moving in a ballistic way like we would expect a meteorite. This and the extraordinary manifestation of lightning should be enough composite evidence to test the objects expected identity against the inspired scriptures.
There are many documented eyewitness testimonies. However, a newspaper excerpt has been chosen with which you could initially test the expectation as it may hold more credibility with you.
This excerpt was found at the Internet link that is also identified in the immediate following:
http://www.tmeg.com/artifacts/tunguska/tunguska.htm
Leonid Kulik was selected by the Soviet Academy of Sciences to investigate what happened. He began by gathering eyewitness accounts of the event. Many newspapers recorded the explosion, like the Irkutsk newspaper Sibir:
'in the village of Nizhne-Karelinsk in the northwest high above the horizon, the peasants saw a body shining very brightly -(too bright for the naked eye) with a bluish white light. It moved vertically down-wards for about ten minutes. The body was in the form of a 'pipe' (i.e. cylindrical). The sky was cloudless, except that low down on the horizon in the direction in which this glowing body was observed, a small dark cloud was noticed. It was hot and dry and when the shining body approached the ground it seemed to be pulverized and in its place a huge cloud of black smoke was formed and a loud crash, not like thunder, but as if from the fall of large stones, or from gunfire, was heard. All the buildings shook and at the same time, a forked tongue of flame broke through the cloud. The old women wept, everyone thought that the end of the world was approaching.
Many other eyewitness testimonies contain similar observances but describe the shape as a fiery pole or log rather than the more technical term "cylinder". It is likely the term pole is more familiar with many of the nomadic people who witnessed the event than a pipe which is an object associated with a more settled population.
------------------
The following is an excerpt from another Internet Site that refers to the researchers inability to confirm the ballistic nature of the visible object. It also points out that multiple objects falling to the earth may be the reason and suggests that perhaps the object was able to maneuver itself, in this case suggesting a UFO or Spaceship.
This observation can be found on the Internet at the following link:
http://www.gpgwebdesign.com.au/ntessla.tunguska.htm
(10) The path followed by the Tunguska body through the atmosphere remainslargely unclear. Immediately before the explosion, it was moving almost exactlyeast to west. The witness testimony that was collected in the 1960s bears outthis variant. Yet testimony gathered in the 1920s suggests with equallikelihood that the body might have arrived from the south or possiblysoutheast. This evidence cannot be easily rejected, since it was obtainedshortly after the event. Attempting to find a way out of this deadlock, FelixY. Zigel, father of Soviet ufology, suggested in 1966 a possible maneuver ofthe Tunguska body at the final stage of its flight. However, the easternvariant of the path has been traced as far as the Lena River. This casts doubton the possibility of a maneuver, at least for this body. Shouldn't we assumethat there were several bodies moving from different directions toward more orless the same final point?
------------------
Included in the more than 700 recorded eyewitness testimonies is the observation on the same day of very large pillars or bands of fire, which would turn into columns of smoke.
Reading these testimonies brings to mind the prophecy at Joel 2:30,31 where several portents are mentioned. Certainly these portents are to be taken literally and not as some allegory.
Pillars of fire and columns of smoke were associated with angels during the Israelites march through the wilderness. With this in mind their presence on the earth during the final stages of the battle, which started in heaven, should not be surprising.
It is also reasonable to conclude that the "hurling down of Satan" associated with Jesus coming to kingly power is an event much deserving of a portent.
The earthly parts of these portents mentioned in Joel definitely seem fulfilled on the same day as the extraordinary manifestation of lightning expected as part of Jesus’ statement at Luke 10:18.
The missing part of the portent is "blood".
My suspicion is that it refers to the bloodshed caused by the outbreak of WW1 fomented by Satan. This has already been indicated in material provided by the discrete slave as evidence by "the trouble filled 20th Century which provides clear proof of Satan’s activity".
The remaining portents mentioned in Joel 2:30,31 are the heavenly or celestial ones also mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24:29,30 which are associated with the revelation of Jesus after the tribulation.
Jesus, in Matthew 24:29,30 does not include the earthly portents of blood, fire and columns of smoke mentioned in Joel 2:30 with his eventual revelation.
This provides some confidence they could be associated with something else.
It is therefore with comfort that they should be associated with the "hurling down of Satan" which also heralds the coming of Jesus to kingly power and the start of the last days. Certainly these events are ones much deserving of a visible and undeniable portent.
------------------
Still yet another profound observance by many eyewitness testimonies is the appearance of a very long trail left behind the shining pipe or cylindrical shaped object of not smoke as could be expected from a meteorite but brightly coloured iridescent bands of light resembling a rainbow.
These testimonies bring to mind the scripture at Ezekiel 1:28 where the glory of Jehovah is described as something like the appearance of a rainbow with brightness round about.
The scripture in Psalm 110:1,2 indicates that Jehovah will have a hand in the placing of Jesus’ enemies at his feet.
It should therefore not be surprising that manifestations of Jehovah’s Glory should be witnessed in close proximity to the shining pipe or cylindrical object (Satan).
However these rainbow like manifestations of Jehovah’s Glory could also be attributed to the close proximity of Jesus.
This statement tests against the scriptures themselves and provide further evidence of their setting matters straight.
Jesus states at Mark 8:38 "the Son of man will also be ashamed of him when he arrives in the glory of his Father with the holy angels".
It is reasonable to conclude during the "hurling down of Satan" that Jesus would be arriving in close proximity to the earth and his antagonist while accompanied by his holy angels.
At Mark 8:38 Jesus also stated it would be with the "glory of his Father".
The profundity, which tests against the scriptures, is that the Glory of Jehovah was indeed unwittingly witnessed by those who observed the appearance of a brightness like a rainbow on the same day the extraordinary manifestation of lightning occurred that we had expected to find through Jesus’ words at Luke 10:18.
------------------
I hope if you have reached this point in the letter that you will agree a perfectly beautiful pattern of great wisdom is being unsealed here. -Ezekiel 28:12.
What I have written so far in no way exhausts the number of profundities surrounding this event, the remainder of which are equally compelling.
However, following are some questions, which I continue to ask myself for which I am nervous about coming to a conclusion:
Scientists expected to find actual pieces or fragments of the shiny pipe or cylindrical shaped object (Satan). They return almost every year and attempt to look for evidence in the dust or particles captured in tree resin, which they could use to identify the object. Having read many of their articles it is easy to see they have been unsuccessful in their quest. They continue to give a large amount of attention to the place of impact to look for evidence but have not found anything with which to reach a conclusion.
The following is an excerpt from an article on the Internet by Vladimir V. Rubtsov, Ph.D.
http://www.gpgwebdesign.com.au/ntessla.tunguska.htm
"The KSE is a kind of informal scientific research institute aimed at thoroughstudies of the Tunguska problem. It was formed in 1958 in the Siberian city ofTomsk, initially under the leadership of G. F. Plekhanov, and consisted atfirst of a dozen specialists in various scientific disciplines, mainlyphysicists and mathematicians. A few years later the core of this informalinstitute involved about 50 scientists. Some 100 specialists per year took partin the field work on the site, and no less than 1,000 researchers in various"formal" institutes all over the country analyzed the collected materials."
Is this in fulfilment of the scripture at Psalm 37:10 "And you will certainly give attention to his place and he will not be"?
To this day however there is an abundance of scorched and fallen trees, which are still remaining as tangible evidence that this event did in fact occur.
Is this in fulfilment of the scripture at Ezekiel 28:18 "And I shall make you ashes upon the earth before the eyes of all those seeing you."?
Would the "eyes of those seeing" him be the actual eyewitness testimonies?
Or would the pattern be unsealed and seen in another way? – Numbers 24:15,16; Isaiah 14:16;Proverbs 2:6.
With this knowledge and understanding other scriptures become more meaningful. There are some realities for which it seems it was the intent of the one who inspired the scriptures that they be seen. These have greatly increased my faith in those realities unseen.
The official 700 collected eyewitness testimonies were electronically captured in the year 2000 after having sat in a box under a desk at the University of Tomsk for many years. It is only in recent years this testimony has been considered of importance, as the much-preferred scientific evidence is not leading towards any success in the proper identification of the object.
I will include a copy of these testimonies on CD inside the envelope with this letter for your examination. Unfortunately it is still in the Russian Language and to the best of my knowledge has not been officially translated into English. I have attempted to electronically translate with poor results. If you are able to use your in-house resources to properly translate this I would appreciate a copy.
If you have reached this point in the letter my hope is that you will now be convinced to thoroughly investigate this event and discover the remaining profundities.
At this point the burden I have carried for several years is much relieved and now belongs to you, whether you should accept this knowledge and understanding or refrain from doing so.
I believe this is of extremely great importance and should eventually lead to further sanctify Jehovah’s name and be a testimony to his wisdom, power and rightful sovereignty.
My hope is that you prayerfully consider what Jehovah’s will is regarding this and that you receive many blessings for carrying it out.
With Christian Love.

Dear Brothers,
I am a publisher in the Xxxxxxxxx Congregation.
It was as a resident of Xxxxxxxxxx that I learned the truth.
My faith has become extremely strong, however the reason why has become a burden for me.
This unusual statement will only be understood if you are able to read this letter in its entirety.
In reading its entirety my hope is that you will also understand why I could not find any relief other than going directly to the Governing Body and remaining discreet.
The reason is some knowledge of which I am convinced. It is through the benefit of this knowledge that my faith has greatly increased.
Along with much prayerful consideration this is what compels me to share it with you.
Through my study of the materials provided by the discrete slave I also have realised this would require a small adjustment in thinking which in turn should realize a large benefit.
It is the scriptures themselves, which have given me the courage to even approach you.
Ephesians 4:11-14 explains that it is through readjustments in knowledge that we can all reach the measure of stature that belongs to the fullness of Christ.
I would prefer to deliver an oral explanation of this however am uncertain how an audience with you could be obtained. To explain this in much detail would require a very lengthy letter so should you be interested in hearing any elaborations or require additional information I can easily be reached at the telephone number or address noted at the start of this letter.
In the hope that I have your attention I shall now make a written explanation:
In the January 1, 2000 Watchtower magazine on page 8 paragraph 10 it states "There is strong evidence that Satan and his demonic hordes were cast out of heaven following that year." The evidence being referred to is the "trouble filled 20th Century which provides clear proof of Satan’s activity." There indeed has been much shed blood.
There are several scriptures which describe, "Satan’s hurling down to Earth" either directly mentioning additional evidence or alluding to some.
By seeking for this evidence I believe a more exact date of "Satan’s hurling down" could be ascertained.
One of the most credible sources for more evidence of "Satan’s hurling down" is a statement made by Jesus Christ himself at Luke 10:18 "At this he said to them: "I began to behold Satan already fallen like lightning from heaven"".
It is very interesting that Jesus would say this.
If "all scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness" then in what way is Luke 10:18 beneficial?
If it could be found that Satan did indeed "fall like lightning from heaven" then this would add a large amount of credibility to Jesus’ own words and be of awesome benefit in setting things straight.
Why?
The scriptures at Ps 110:1,2 and Rev 12:10 closely associate the "hurling down of Satan" with the establishment of Jesus’ Kingdom rule from heaven.
If undeniable physical evidence of this could be found in the secular histories which have been unwittingly left in the public record it should add much greater weight to the Kingdom message now being preached.
Not only should this increase the faith and zeal of Jehovah’s own Witnesses but also those who may be doubting that Jesus is presently ruling as our King from heaven should now be convinced.
This knowledge should lead to the speeding up of the harvest work as we approach the end of this wicked system.
Another benefit is that all Religious Leaders in Christendom will be unable to object to the undeniable and tangible evidence! This extends to all the National Leaders and people also and should set this matter of sovereignty straight with them. – Isaiah 2:4
They will have to know!
This would bring much glory to Jehovah’s name leading to the further vindication of his sovereignty.
As the beneficial results, which could be obtained, are so very sizeable it supports that a diligent search through the historical record for these physical manifestations of "Satan’s hurling down" should be undertaken with much zeal. Like digging for hid treasure.
What to search for though?
If "Satan’s hurling down" was identical to ordinary lightning then it could not be found. If this were the case, Jesus’ words at Luke 10:18 would be wasted in regard to any expected physical manifestation or the use of his words as a sign for the event towards which the writings of the Bible lead.
However, if it was indeed Jesus’ intention that this manifestation should be found and linked to the arrival of his Kingdom then some very extraordinary manifestation of lightning should somewhere be recorded in secular history around the year 1914 for all to find.
I have been unable to find anything of significance in the way of lightning from heaven in the year 1914 and the several years that follow.
There are some well-known scriptures however, which encourage me to look for this evidence in the years previous to 1914.
These scriptures are as follows:
Ps 110:1 "Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet."
Rev 12:10 "Now has come to pass the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God the authority of his Christ because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down."
Each of these scriptures delivers the rather blatant message that Satan would be "hurled down" before Jesus took his throne. Especially when read separately from the context of any other scripture where contiguity may be assumed.
If this extraordinary physical manifestation could be found previous to 1914 a small readjustment in knowledge may be well justified especially in consideration of the size of the benefit and it’s corroboration with Jesus’ own words and these two scriptures.
It is interesting to note in the scripture at Psalm 110:1 that Jehovah himself is indicating a large involvement in the "hurling down" or placing of Jesus’ enemies at his feet.
It is therefore likely that Jehovah’s own chariot would make an approach to the earth at this time and the glory of Jehovah would be evident.
Physical evidences of this as described by the prophet Ezekiel in the first chapter of his book may also be recorded in secular history and closely related to the manifestation of lightning which we expect to find from Jesus’ statement at Luke 10:18. The discovery of these evidences would add great weight to Ezekiel’s first chapter proving that it also has been of extraordinary benefit in setting matters straight.
In fact the discovery of these evidences would indeed seem to be unsealing a beautiful pattern of great wisdom.
By searching through history immediately previous to 1914 in the very public record on the Internet the expected physical manifestations of "Satan’s hurling down" are to be found in extraordinary abundance. This abundance of evidence convinces me that coincidence can be completely overruled.
Several years before 1914 a very powerful flash of light was responsible for causing the immediate scorching of over 200 square kilometres of trees initiating an even larger forest fire. At almost the same time an explosion uprooted and blew down approximately eighty million of these trees in a radius of about 30 to 40 kilometres, approximately the size of the City of London.
Certainly this lightning is well beyond the ordinary and worthy of further examination, especially considering the reasons for expecting its discovery and still yet actually finding it!
To this very day no one has concluded a satisfactory or generally accepted scientific explanation for the cause although many theories have been offered.
The motives for their investigations however are not driven by a desire for spiritual advancement to reach the measure of stature that belongs to the fullness of Christ.
It is interesting that it appears no one else has made any direct biblical connection although many of the eyewitness testimonies give evidence they felt something of a divine nature was then occurring.
The date of this occurrence was June 30th 1908 in a remote region of Russia known as Tunguska.
This was 6 years previous to the time Jesus took his throne, enough time for Satan to foment the earthly situations that lead to the start of World War One.
It is my hope that should you have reached this far in the letter that you would already be convinced of a necessity to explore this to a satisfactory conclusion in your own minds so that you might prove to yourselves whether it is the will of God at work here. - Ro12:2
If your interest is still captured I would like to deliver some further findings, in regard to this event, which are extraordinarily profound. I will attempt to test the findings in the testimonies against seemingly relevant scriptures all of which you should examine. - 1Cor2:15
This extraordinarily powerful flash of lightning and explosion was preceded by the movement towards the earth of a visible object.
If the rationales in this letter are to be correct then it stands to reason the identity of the object should be Satan himself.
Another very reasonable conclusion is that should the proper identification of this object be Jehovah’s will, then his word the bible is the only source of reference from which to do this and test it’s veracity with success. –Job 28:12; Proverbs 1:7
If perhaps you think these rationales a little far fetched then it would be a good time to quote a very comforting scripture at 1 Corinthians 2:9 "But just as it is written: "Eye has not seen and ear has not heard, neither have there been conceived in the heart of man the things that God has prepared for those that love him"".
It is at this point in the letter that an examination of scriptures should be done to determine what evidences in Jehovah’s inspired word do exist with which to test the physical identification of Satan:
Isaiah 14:12 --- Very Bright / Shining
"O how you have fallen from heaven, you shining one, son of the dawn! How you have been cut down to the earth, you who were disabling the nations!"
The physical manifestation in this scripture is that Satan should be very shiny and bright, perhaps difficult to look at with the naked eye. It is interesting the manifestation is discovered in a verse, which describes his eventual "hurling to earth".
(Compare also Ezekiel 28:17)
1 Peter 5:8 --- Roaring / Very loud and frightening / Movement not ballistic
" Keep your senses, be watchful. Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone."
The physical manifestation here is the noise of roaring which we should expect to be very loud and frightening. It also mentions that he "walks" so we could expect that his movements are self-directed although in this situation he is subject against his will to Jesus and Jehovah. Scientists would be expecting objects that approach the earth to be ballistic in nature not perceiving these may be sentient. It is therefore reasonable to assume their scientific examination should provide evidence of their inability to agree on the objects ballistic nature.
Ezekiel 28:13 (NWT) --- Beauty / Setting and Sockets
"In Eden, the garden of God, you proved to be. Every precious stone was your covering, ruby, topaz, and jasper; chrysolite, onyx and jade; sapphire, turquoise and emerald; and of gold was the workmanship of your settings and sockets in you. In the day of your being created they were made ready."
From this scripture it is obvious that an object of great beauty could be expected. Another physical manifestation mentioned here is the "settings and sockets". It is difficult to imagine however what physical shape "settings and sockets" could represent, it is for this reason the very popular King James Version becomes useful as its description provides a more identifiable manifestation as follows:
Ezekiel 28:13 (KJV) --- Beauty / Pipes / Taboret (Drum or Cylinder)
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy taborets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Instead of "settings and sockets" the KJV translates as "taborets and pipes".
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines "taboret" as follows:
Main Entry: tab·o·ret
Variant(s): or tab·ou·ret /"ta-b&-'ret, -'rA/
Function: noun
Etymology: French tabouret, literally, small drum, from Middle French, diminutive of tabor, tabour drumDate: 1630
1: a cylindrical seat or stool without arms or back
2: a small portable stand or cabinet
I hope you will agree that a pipe or cylindrical drum is a physical manifestation that is easier to envision or identify than a setting or socket. In fact if the object is indeed pipe or cylindrical shaped the coincidence is too large to spend much time with contentions over the translation. In this case the end should indeed justify the means. Should this identify the object then it becomes difficult to deny that it was the intention of the inspired scriptures to allow for this. Instead it should become a beautiful testimony to Jehovah’s Wisdom.
The weight of the message would be increased with those who doubt should the evidence be found in a translation other than the NWT. They cannot deny. They will have to know.
In conclusion it should be expected that a pipe or cylindrical object, shining very brightly and accompanied by loud roaring yet also not moving in a ballistic way like we would expect a meteorite. This and the extraordinary manifestation of lightning should be enough composite evidence to test the objects expected identity against the inspired scriptures.
There are many documented eyewitness testimonies. However, a newspaper excerpt has been chosen with which you could initially test the expectation as it may hold more credibility with you.
This excerpt was found at the Internet link that is also identified in the immediate following:
http://www.tmeg.com/artifacts/tunguska/tunguska.htm
Leonid Kulik was selected by the Soviet Academy of Sciences to investigate what happened. He began by gathering eyewitness accounts of the event. Many newspapers recorded the explosion, like the Irkutsk newspaper Sibir:
'in the village of Nizhne-Karelinsk in the northwest high above the horizon, the peasants saw a body shining very brightly -(too bright for the naked eye) with a bluish white light. It moved vertically down-wards for about ten minutes. The body was in the form of a 'pipe' (i.e. cylindrical). The sky was cloudless, except that low down on the horizon in the direction in which this glowing body was observed, a small dark cloud was noticed. It was hot and dry and when the shining body approached the ground it seemed to be pulverized and in its place a huge cloud of black smoke was formed and a loud crash, not like thunder, but as if from the fall of large stones, or from gunfire, was heard. All the buildings shook and at the same time, a forked tongue of flame broke through the cloud. The old women wept, everyone thought that the end of the world was approaching.
Many other eyewitness testimonies contain similar observances but describe the shape as a fiery pole or log rather than the more technical term "cylinder". It is likely the term pole is more familiar with many of the nomadic people who witnessed the event than a pipe which is an object associated with a more settled population.
------------------
The following is an excerpt from another Internet Site that refers to the researchers inability to confirm the ballistic nature of the visible object. It also points out that multiple objects falling to the earth may be the reason and suggests that perhaps the object was able to maneuver itself, in this case suggesting a UFO or Spaceship.
This observation can be found on the Internet at the following link:
http://www.gpgwebdesign.com.au/ntessla.tunguska.htm
(10) The path followed by the Tunguska body through the atmosphere remainslargely unclear. Immediately before the explosion, it was moving almost exactlyeast to west. The witness testimony that was collected in the 1960s bears outthis variant. Yet testimony gathered in the 1920s suggests with equallikelihood that the body might have arrived from the south or possiblysoutheast. This evidence cannot be easily rejected, since it was obtainedshortly after the event. Attempting to find a way out of this deadlock, FelixY. Zigel, father of Soviet ufology, suggested in 1966 a possible maneuver ofthe Tunguska body at the final stage of its flight. However, the easternvariant of the path has been traced as far as the Lena River. This casts doubton the possibility of a maneuver, at least for this body. Shouldn't we assumethat there were several bodies moving from different directions toward more orless the same final point?
------------------
Included in the more than 700 recorded eyewitness testimonies is the observation on the same day of very large pillars or bands of fire, which would turn into columns of smoke.
Reading these testimonies brings to mind the prophecy at Joel 2:30,31 where several portents are mentioned. Certainly these portents are to be taken literally and not as some allegory.
Pillars of fire and columns of smoke were associated with angels during the Israelites march through the wilderness. With this in mind their presence on the earth during the final stages of the battle, which started in heaven, should not be surprising.
It is also reasonable to conclude that the "hurling down of Satan" associated with Jesus coming to kingly power is an event much deserving of a portent.
The earthly parts of these portents mentioned in Joel definitely seem fulfilled on the same day as the extraordinary manifestation of lightning expected as part of Jesus’ statement at Luke 10:18.
The missing part of the portent is "blood".
My suspicion is that it refers to the bloodshed caused by the outbreak of WW1 fomented by Satan. This has already been indicated in material provided by the discrete slave as evidence by "the trouble filled 20th Century which provides clear proof of Satan’s activity".
The remaining portents mentioned in Joel 2:30,31 are the heavenly or celestial ones also mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24:29,30 which are associated with the revelation of Jesus after the tribulation.
Jesus, in Matthew 24:29,30 does not include the earthly portents of blood, fire and columns of smoke mentioned in Joel 2:30 with his eventual revelation.
This provides some confidence they could be associated with something else.
It is therefore with comfort that they should be associated with the "hurling down of Satan" which also heralds the coming of Jesus to kingly power and the start of the last days. Certainly these events are ones much deserving of a visible and undeniable portent.
------------------
Still yet another profound observance by many eyewitness testimonies is the appearance of a very long trail left behind the shining pipe or cylindrical shaped object of not smoke as could be expected from a meteorite but brightly coloured iridescent bands of light resembling a rainbow.
These testimonies bring to mind the scripture at Ezekiel 1:28 where the glory of Jehovah is described as something like the appearance of a rainbow with brightness round about.
The scripture in Psalm 110:1,2 indicates that Jehovah will have a hand in the placing of Jesus’ enemies at his feet.
It should therefore not be surprising that manifestations of Jehovah’s Glory should be witnessed in close proximity to the shining pipe or cylindrical object (Satan).
However these rainbow like manifestations of Jehovah’s Glory could also be attributed to the close proximity of Jesus.
This statement tests against the scriptures themselves and provide further evidence of their setting matters straight.
Jesus states at Mark 8:38 "the Son of man will also be ashamed of him when he arrives in the glory of his Father with the holy angels".
It is reasonable to conclude during the "hurling down of Satan" that Jesus would be arriving in close proximity to the earth and his antagonist while accompanied by his holy angels.
At Mark 8:38 Jesus also stated it would be with the "glory of his Father".
The profundity, which tests against the scriptures, is that the Glory of Jehovah was indeed unwittingly witnessed by those who observed the appearance of a brightness like a rainbow on the same day the extraordinary manifestation of lightning occurred that we had expected to find through Jesus’ words at Luke 10:18.
------------------
I hope if you have reached this point in the letter that you will agree a perfectly beautiful pattern of great wisdom is being unsealed here. -Ezekiel 28:12.
What I have written so far in no way exhausts the number of profundities surrounding this event, the remainder of which are equally compelling.
However, following are some questions, which I continue to ask myself for which I am nervous about coming to a conclusion:
Scientists expected to find actual pieces or fragments of the shiny pipe or cylindrical shaped object (Satan). They return almost every year and attempt to look for evidence in the dust or particles captured in tree resin, which they could use to identify the object. Having read many of their articles it is easy to see they have been unsuccessful in their quest. They continue to give a large amount of attention to the place of impact to look for evidence but have not found anything with which to reach a conclusion.

4th Letter to Governing Body and Annointed
The Governing Body
25 Columbia Heights
Brooklyn, NY.
11201-2483 U.S.A.
June 10th, 2005
Dear Brothers,
This is now the 4th letter I have written to you.
The intent of this one is to further explain the profundity of the previous letters and the significance of the information.
Failed prophecy made by Jehovah’s Witnesses in the past has obviously been cause for some embarrassment. One of the most prevalent of these which currently persists in its failure is the interpretation of the "generation that will by no means pass away" Mt 24:34 The WTBTS associated "this generation" with those who were alive in 1914. Obviously the generation alive in 1914 is now mostly passed away and the expected tribulation has still not started.
The information presented in my previous letters is valuable for understanding which generation is the correct. The reasoning for this is explained in the following:
Jesus Christ’s words were most certainly spoken with the intent that someone would understand and interpret them correctly. The words he spoke in the following scripture seem most definitely intended to properly identify "the generation":
Therefore it is the generation that "sees all these things", which is the generation "that will by no means pass away".
In order to identify the correct generation two questions must now be answered as follows:
1/ :- what are all these things?
And
2/ :- when was the last one seen?
I hope you will now agree that once the tribulation has started the question of identifying "the generation" becomes redundant, as the answer is obvious. If this seems rational to you then you should also now agree that "the generation" must be identifiable through our Lord Jesus Christ’s words, which describe manifestations that occur prior to the start of the tribulation. Once the tribulation has started the judge is no longer "near at the doors" but has already started judging. With the judging started the system of things is being concluded and the generation can expect to endure all those things described to occur after the tribulation starts.
If this is understood then it should now easily be discerned that the words of Jesus are intended for someone "on the watch" to properly recognise the generation before the tribulation and judgement starts, not during and not afterwards. If this were not true then our Lord Jesus Christ would have said words in vain. Never could that be the case. In this way the scriptures in Matthew Chapter 24 truly would be beneficial for setting matters straight.
In Matthew Chapter 24 Jesus Christ seems to purposefully separate the things which precede the tribulation from the things which succeed the tribulation by saying; "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened," Mt 24:29.
The first important question has therefore been answered.
All the things to be seen are those written prior to verse 29 of Matthew Chapter 24.
The WTBTS has explained that it was the generation alive in 1914, however, were all of the things written prior to verse 29 also immediately seen in 1914?
I believe not.
They were to be progressively seen after Jesus Christ’s presence started. In order to correctly identify the generation, each one of the manifestations described would need to be carefully noted as they were seen. Were all those remaining on the list carefully watched for? Isn’t this what our Lord Jesus Christ really meant by "keeping on the watch".
Once the very last of "all those things" has been seen a very important scriptural milestone is reached. Not only would "the generation" be correctly identified, other chronological measurements now become viable through the scriptures written in Daniel Chapter 12.
Strong admonishments from our Lord Jesus Christ to "keep on the watch" imply that a manifestation we are watching for could easily slip by unnoticed.
A watchman’s job is to announce the nearness rather than the actual arrival. If a watchman announces the arrival only and not the nearness of the arrival then his purpose seems redundant. To have the arrival announced only and not the nearness seems far from the intent of our Lord Jesus Christ’s words contained in Matthew Chapter 24.
So now to answer the next question:
2:- When was the last one seen?
"27 For just as the lightning comes out of eastern parts and shines over to western parts, so the presence of the Son of man will be." Matthew 24:27
Jesus Christ cannot be talking about an ordinary manifestation of lightning here. If it is lightning which comes out of eastern parts and shines over to western parts then it must be an extraordinarily powerful manifestation of lightning. If he were referring to ordinary lightning it would make no difference. If these scriptures are indeed to be fulfilled then this lightning must be one of the "things" that we should see.
YOU saw this extremely powerful manifestation of unapproachable light at an appointed time, through my letter sent on January 16, 2003. A copy of this letter is enclosed as a reminder.
The second question:
2:- When was the last one seen?
Has now been answered.
The generation alive on January 16, 2003 is the one that will by no means pass away until all those things spoken of by our Lord in Matthew Chapter 24, occur.
The letter explained how the Tunguska Event of 1908 manifested Jesus Christ’s presence. If you carefully researched the referenced information on the Tunguska event you should have seen that it not only included an extraordinarily powerful manifestation of lightning, also manifested were loud thundering, the ground quaked, a very loud roaring, an extremely strong wind, violent disturbances and an enormous fire.
In this way "from Jehovah of armies you have had attention with thunder and with quaking and with a great sound, storm wind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire." Isaiah Chapter 29 and verse 6 has been fulfilled.
Will you understand that the surrounding scriptures must also now be having a fulfilment upon you?
If the last manifestation on the list is now seen the remaining events described by Jesus will shortly proceed. The first to expect is the judging of both the faithful and evil slave when our Lord Jesus Christ opens the door. (Mt 24:33) I understand why this might be troubling news for you, especially since you have been espousing the fulfilment of this event in 1919 and suggesting that the evil slave no longer exists.
If a watchman is keeping watch however, it is to the "house of israel" that he must first blow the horn in warning. Ezekiel the prophet in Chapter 3 and verse 17 explains this.
Please accept that with this letter you should now understand that the warning horn was blown on January 16th, 2003.
Should any of those responsible for providing food at the proper time or those to whom the food should be given suffer an adverse judgement, may this letter serve as a witness to our Lord Jesus Christ that I should be free from their blood.
Matthew describes this adverse judgement as; "He will cut him to pieces" Mt 24:51 NIV
Daniel describes it as; "dashing of the power of the hold people to pieces" Da 12:7 NWT
Isaiah describes it as; "crushed to pieces without ones sparing" Isaiah 30:14 NWT
The WTBTS used 1914 as the scriptural milestone from which to measure both the "generation that will by no means pass away" mentioned in Matthew Chapter 24 and the "appointed time, appointed times and a half" mentioned in Daniel 12:7
If the same chronological liberty is taken with the newly understood date then 1260 days should be added to January 16, 2003.
Using this calculation, the "dashing of the power of the holy people to pieces" should suddenly commence and then conclude at sometime "within a year and some days". (Isaiah 32:10)
Although neither Jesus nor the angels are aware of the day or hour they certainly had enough information to determine the "watch" during which the conclusion would start. This letter proves the admonishments "to keep on the watch" for the fulfilment of Jesus Christ’s words in Matthew Chapter 24 have not been in vain.
If you are indeed the faithful slave this manifestation should find you joyfully anticipating the next period of time for the reasons described by Paul in his letter to Timothy; "From this time on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the lord, the righteous judge, will give me as a reward in that day, yet not only me, but all those who have loved his manifestation." (2 Timothy 4:8)
In Matthew Chapter 24 our Lord Jesus described with strong words the actions of the evil slave saying; "if ever that slave should say in his heart, ‘My master is delaying.’ And should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards".
If your fellow slaves are being beaten (disfellowshipped, rebuked, excluded, ignored, reviled) and alliances with worldly nations, governments or organisations are being made (drinking with drunkards), or lifesaving truths are being withheld or ignored (food at the proper time), then you should be very, very, very concerned about your future.
With the contents of this letter properly contemplated you should now understand why it is important for yourselves and those in your care to understand this and also why it has been important for me to reveal these things to you.
If the world had been told of these things the matter of sovereignty would already be set straight. (Isaiah 2:4)
Certainly this understanding has the power to convince those who may now be having doubts to persevere with loyalty and in this way should become a lifesaving truth for all those in your care. (2Th 2:10)
The contents of this letter are intended for all of those anointed and invited ones.
Please share it with them all.
The prophet Daniel was informed in the 12th chapter that many would not understand.
For this reason I hope this letter finds you paying close attention.
With Christian Love,

Dear Brothers,
This is now the 4th letter I have written to you.
The intent of this one is to further explain the profundity of the previous letters and the significance of the information.
Failed prophecy made by Jehovah’s Witnesses in the past has obviously been cause for some embarrassment. One of the most prevalent of these which currently persists in its failure is the interpretation of the "generation that will by no means pass away" Mt 24:34 The WTBTS associated "this generation" with those who were alive in 1914. Obviously the generation alive in 1914 is now mostly passed away and the expected tribulation has still not started.
The information presented in my previous letters is valuable for understanding which generation is the correct. The reasoning for this is explained in the following:
Jesus Christ’s words were most certainly spoken with the intent that someone would understand and interpret them correctly. The words he spoke in the following scripture seem most definitely intended to properly identify "the generation":
Matthew 24:33-3433 Likewise also YOU, when YOU see all these things, know that he is near at the doors. 34 Truly I say to YOU that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur. -
Therefore it is the generation that "sees all these things", which is the generation "that will by no means pass away".
In order to identify the correct generation two questions must now be answered as follows:
1/ :- what are all these things?
And
2/ :- when was the last one seen?
I hope you will now agree that once the tribulation has started the question of identifying "the generation" becomes redundant, as the answer is obvious. If this seems rational to you then you should also now agree that "the generation" must be identifiable through our Lord Jesus Christ’s words, which describe manifestations that occur prior to the start of the tribulation. Once the tribulation has started the judge is no longer "near at the doors" but has already started judging. With the judging started the system of things is being concluded and the generation can expect to endure all those things described to occur after the tribulation starts.
If this is understood then it should now easily be discerned that the words of Jesus are intended for someone "on the watch" to properly recognise the generation before the tribulation and judgement starts, not during and not afterwards. If this were not true then our Lord Jesus Christ would have said words in vain. Never could that be the case. In this way the scriptures in Matthew Chapter 24 truly would be beneficial for setting matters straight.
In Matthew Chapter 24 Jesus Christ seems to purposefully separate the things which precede the tribulation from the things which succeed the tribulation by saying; "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened," Mt 24:29.
The first important question has therefore been answered.
All the things to be seen are those written prior to verse 29 of Matthew Chapter 24.
The WTBTS has explained that it was the generation alive in 1914, however, were all of the things written prior to verse 29 also immediately seen in 1914?
I believe not.
They were to be progressively seen after Jesus Christ’s presence started. In order to correctly identify the generation, each one of the manifestations described would need to be carefully noted as they were seen. Were all those remaining on the list carefully watched for? Isn’t this what our Lord Jesus Christ really meant by "keeping on the watch".
Once the very last of "all those things" has been seen a very important scriptural milestone is reached. Not only would "the generation" be correctly identified, other chronological measurements now become viable through the scriptures written in Daniel Chapter 12.
Strong admonishments from our Lord Jesus Christ to "keep on the watch" imply that a manifestation we are watching for could easily slip by unnoticed.
A watchman’s job is to announce the nearness rather than the actual arrival. If a watchman announces the arrival only and not the nearness of the arrival then his purpose seems redundant. To have the arrival announced only and not the nearness seems far from the intent of our Lord Jesus Christ’s words contained in Matthew Chapter 24.
So now to answer the next question:
2:- When was the last one seen?
"27 For just as the lightning comes out of eastern parts and shines over to western parts, so the presence of the Son of man will be." Matthew 24:27
Jesus Christ cannot be talking about an ordinary manifestation of lightning here. If it is lightning which comes out of eastern parts and shines over to western parts then it must be an extraordinarily powerful manifestation of lightning. If he were referring to ordinary lightning it would make no difference. If these scriptures are indeed to be fulfilled then this lightning must be one of the "things" that we should see.
YOU saw this extremely powerful manifestation of unapproachable light at an appointed time, through my letter sent on January 16, 2003. A copy of this letter is enclosed as a reminder.
The second question:
2:- When was the last one seen?
Has now been answered.
The generation alive on January 16, 2003 is the one that will by no means pass away until all those things spoken of by our Lord in Matthew Chapter 24, occur.
The letter explained how the Tunguska Event of 1908 manifested Jesus Christ’s presence. If you carefully researched the referenced information on the Tunguska event you should have seen that it not only included an extraordinarily powerful manifestation of lightning, also manifested were loud thundering, the ground quaked, a very loud roaring, an extremely strong wind, violent disturbances and an enormous fire.
In this way "from Jehovah of armies you have had attention with thunder and with quaking and with a great sound, storm wind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire." Isaiah Chapter 29 and verse 6 has been fulfilled.
Will you understand that the surrounding scriptures must also now be having a fulfilment upon you?
If the last manifestation on the list is now seen the remaining events described by Jesus will shortly proceed. The first to expect is the judging of both the faithful and evil slave when our Lord Jesus Christ opens the door. (Mt 24:33) I understand why this might be troubling news for you, especially since you have been espousing the fulfilment of this event in 1919 and suggesting that the evil slave no longer exists.
If a watchman is keeping watch however, it is to the "house of israel" that he must first blow the horn in warning. Ezekiel the prophet in Chapter 3 and verse 17 explains this.
Please accept that with this letter you should now understand that the warning horn was blown on January 16th, 2003.
Should any of those responsible for providing food at the proper time or those to whom the food should be given suffer an adverse judgement, may this letter serve as a witness to our Lord Jesus Christ that I should be free from their blood.
Matthew describes this adverse judgement as; "He will cut him to pieces" Mt 24:51 NIV
Daniel describes it as; "dashing of the power of the hold people to pieces" Da 12:7 NWT
Isaiah describes it as; "crushed to pieces without ones sparing" Isaiah 30:14 NWT
The WTBTS used 1914 as the scriptural milestone from which to measure both the "generation that will by no means pass away" mentioned in Matthew Chapter 24 and the "appointed time, appointed times and a half" mentioned in Daniel 12:7
If the same chronological liberty is taken with the newly understood date then 1260 days should be added to January 16, 2003.
Using this calculation, the "dashing of the power of the holy people to pieces" should suddenly commence and then conclude at sometime "within a year and some days". (Isaiah 32:10)
Although neither Jesus nor the angels are aware of the day or hour they certainly had enough information to determine the "watch" during which the conclusion would start. This letter proves the admonishments "to keep on the watch" for the fulfilment of Jesus Christ’s words in Matthew Chapter 24 have not been in vain.
If you are indeed the faithful slave this manifestation should find you joyfully anticipating the next period of time for the reasons described by Paul in his letter to Timothy; "From this time on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the lord, the righteous judge, will give me as a reward in that day, yet not only me, but all those who have loved his manifestation." (2 Timothy 4:8)
In Matthew Chapter 24 our Lord Jesus described with strong words the actions of the evil slave saying; "if ever that slave should say in his heart, ‘My master is delaying.’ And should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards".
If your fellow slaves are being beaten (disfellowshipped, rebuked, excluded, ignored, reviled) and alliances with worldly nations, governments or organisations are being made (drinking with drunkards), or lifesaving truths are being withheld or ignored (food at the proper time), then you should be very, very, very concerned about your future.

For this reason I hope this letter finds you paying close attention.
