Emotional from exhaustion? Yes!! Even before this we were all struggling with one trial after another. So when the Governing Body discern that we're in the final part of the final part of the last days, when I hear from those in the Branch that the consensus is that they can 'smell Armageddon' (their term), when we've received our training via the recent conventions, when the light is so bright we can 'see' this world's end imminent, I'm basing my 'feelings on evidence.
COVID-19 is just one aspect of the sign of the conclusion of the system of things. And Jesus said things would go from bad to worse. This pandemic has touched everyone. The fallout from it will be huge. The economy has tanked, brothers and sisters are out of work, and yet the commercial system will still be going along as they say too bad too bad you great city as they see the smoke rising from Babylon the Great' s destruction.
It's a composite sign, and combined with every other aspect of the sign, shows how near the GT we are. The waters have dried up for Babylon, churches are closed, and it'll be a long time until they're allowed to be open at full capacity, if ever.
And yet, when we speak to people on the telephone in our area, the attitude is "she'll be right mate", exactly the same as before this pandemic, in general they take no note.
Are we in position, in our 'inner rooms", as the Jews were before Babylon was destroyed? Only time will tell. Our hope keeps us going. We're not going to fall out of the truth if this system goes on a bit longer than we expect, because Jehovah knows exactly the right time to end this mess. We know Satan's system is an utter failure and that Jehovah won't let it go on a millisecond longer than it takes for the challenge on his universal sovereignty to be proven beyond a doubt. Can it just be now though 😂😂
