Clayton: Justin, hem gud for lukim iu moa. Mi luk forward for Bible study bilong iumi tuday. * Iufala stap gud nomoa?

Justin: Ia, mifala stap olraet.

Clayton: Gud. Lastaem, iumi tufala story abaotem why mifala Jehovah’s Witness bilivim Kingdom bilong God hem start for rul long 1914. * Iumi storyim tu samting wea pruvim datwan, wea hem nao datfala profesi long Daniel chapter 4. Waswe, iu tingim wanem datfala profesi hem story abaotem?

Justin: Ia, hem dream bilong King Nebuchadnezzar abaotem wanfala mamaeti tree.

Clayton: Hem nao ia. Long datfala dream, Nebuchadnezzar lukim wanfala mamaeti tree wea tol go kasem skae. Then hem herem wanfala angel bilong God givim komand for olketa katem nao datfala tree, bat hem sei for no aotem rut bilong hem. Bihaen “sevenfala taem,” datfala tree bae grow moa. * Iumi storyim tu hao datfala profesi kamap tru long tufala taem. Long firstaem hem kamap tru long hu?

Justin: Hem samting wea happen long Nebuchadnezzar. Hem lusim stretfala tingting bilong hem for sevenfala year.

Clayton: Hem stret. Nebuchadnezzar no savve rul for sevenfala year bikos long datwan. Bat long mek-tu taem wea datfala profesi hem kamap tru, rul bilong God nao bae no gohed for sevenfala taem. Olsem iumi storyim finis, datfala sevenfala taem hem start taem Jerusalem hem distroe long 607 B.C.E. Long end bilong datfala sevenfala taem God bae garem samwan wea stap long heven for rulim pipol bilong hem long earth. Datwan minim long end bilong sevenfala taem, Kingdom bilong God wea stap long heven bae start for rul. Iumi storyim finis wanem taem nao sevenfala taem hem start. So sapos iumi savve long haomas year nao hem insaed long datfala sevenfala taem, then iumi bae savve wanem taem nao Kingdom bilong God hem start for rul. Waswe, hem klia long iu?

Justin: Ia, disfala review hem helpem mi for tingim moa olketa point hia.

Clayton: Gud tumas. Distaem bae iumi storyim haomas year nao hem insaed datfala sevenfala taem. Bifor mi kam, mi lukluk moa long diswan for helpem mi for tingim olketa main point. Mi bae traem best bilong mi for explainim gud diswan.

Justin: OK.

Clayton: Long firstaem datfala profesi kamap tru hem taem Nebuchadnezzar hem stop for rul for sevenfala taem wea datwan hem sevenfala year. Bat long mek-tu taem profesi hia hem join witim Kingdom bilong God, so datfala sevenfala taem hem mas staka year winim sevenfala year.

Justin: Why nao olsem?

Clayton: Tingim, sevenfala taem hem start long 607 B.C.E., taem Jerusalem hem distroe. So sapos iumi kaontem sevenfala year start long datfala year, iumi bae kasem year 600 B.C.E. Bat no eni important samting hem happen long datfala year wea join witim Kingdom bilong God. And tu, olsem iumi storyim last taem, staka handred year bihaen Jesus stap long earth, samting wea hem talem showimaot datfala sevenfala taem hem no finis yet.

Justin: Ia, mi just tingim nao.

Clayton: So long datfala profesi sevenfala taem hem no sevenfala year bat hem mas staka year winim sevenfala year.

Justin: Haomas year?

Clayton: Bible buk bilong Revelation helpem iumi for savve haomas year nao hem insaed long datfala sevenfala taem. Hem story abaotem thri and haf taem wea hem minim 1,260 day. * Sapos iumi addim thri and haf taem witim thri and haf taem iumi bae kasem sevenfala taem, so datfala sevenfala taem hem minim 2,520 day. Waswe, iu minim?

Justin: Ia mi minim, bat hao nao datwan showimaot Kingdom bilong God hem start for rul long 1914?

Clayton: OK, iumi storyim datwan. Long samfala Bible profesi, wanfala day hem piksarem wanfala year. * Sapos iumi followim wanem Bible talem hao wanfala day hem savve minim wanfala year, datfala sevenfala taem bae hem minim 2,520 year. So sapos iumi start kaontem 2,520 year start long 607 B.C.E., iumi bae kasem year 1914. * Hem nao hao iumi kasem 1914, datfala year wea sevenfala taem hem end and Jesus hem start for rul long Kingdom bilong God. And iu savve, start kam long 1914, plande big samting happen long world wea Bible sei bae happen long olketa last day.

Justin: Olketa wanem samting?

Clayton: Tingim wanem Jesus talem long Matthew 24:7. Long taem wea hem start for rul long heven, hem sei: “Bae pipol long wanfala ples faetem pipol long nara ples and pipol long wanfala kantri faetem pipol long nara kantri. Olketa taem bilong bigfala hangre bae kasem plande pipol, and olketa earthquake bae sekem staka ples.” Lukim Jesus hem sei long datfala taem bigfala hangre bae kasem plande pipol and olketa earthquake bae sekem staka ples. Insaed wan handred year wea go pas, olketa samting hia happen long world, iaman?

Justin: Ia.

Clayton: Long datfala scripture, Jesus sei tu war bae gohed taem hem start for rul long Kingdom bilong God. Revelation sei olketa war bae affectim full world long taem bilong end. * Waswe, iu savve long wanem taem nao World War I hem start?

 Justin: Hem long 1914, datfala sem year wea iu sei Jesus hem start for rul, iaman? Mi no tingim datwan bifor.

Clayton: Datwan hem mek sense taem iumi minim profesi abaotem sevenfala taem and olketa nara profesi long Bible wea storyim taem bilong end. Dastawe mifala Jehovah’s Witness bilivim Jesus hem start for rul long Kingdom bilong God long 1914 and olketa last day hem start long datfala sem year. *

Justin: Staka point nao iumi storyim, so mi mas ting raonem gud.

Clayton: Hem olraet. Hem tek taem tu for mi minim gud diswan. Bat mi hope story bilong iumi tufala helpem iu for luksavve nomata no eni scripture storyim datfala year 1914, mifala Jehovah’s Witness iusim olketa scripture for pruvim Jesus start for rul long 1914.

Justin: Ia, mi barava tinghae long wei wea evri samting wea iufala bilivim hem followim wanem Bible hem talem, and no wanem iufala seleva tingim. Bat iumi storyim staka point for minim diswan. Why nao God no just talem stret long Bible Jesus bae start for rul long heven long 1914?

Clayton: Datwan hem gudfala kwestin. Iu savve, staka samting long Bible man mas barava studyim gud bifor hem savve minim datwan. So why nao Bible hem olsem? Waswe sapos iumi storyim datwan next taem?

Justin: Ia, bae hem gud.
