The Watchtower, “How Will You Stand Before the Judgment Seat?”
“We have long felt that the parable depicted Jesus’ sitting down as King in 1914 and since then making judgments—everlasting life for people proving to be like sheep, permanent death for the goats. But a reconsideration of the parable points to an adjusted understanding of its timing and what it illustrates.”
The organisation states its own previous teaching and announces the change in the same paragraph.
