Die Position der Organisation oder ihre spätere Erklärung: Spätere Auflagen lesen 'will end in A.D. 1915'. Der heutige Standpunkt ist, dass 1914 den BEGINN der letzten Tage und die unsichtbare Inthronisierung Christi markierte.

Studies in the Scriptures, Series II: The Time Is at Hand (Millennial Dawn vol. 2), first edition, “Chapter IV, The Times of the Gentiles”

1889 · pp.76-78 · C. T. Russell · Tower Publishing Co. / Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society

“Firstly, That at that date the Kingdom of God ... will have obtained full, universal control, and that it will then be 'set up,' or firmly established, in the earth. ... Thirdly, It will prove that some time before the end of A.D. 1914 the last member of the divinely recognized Church of Christ ... will be glorified with the Head”

Russell lists seven things that the end of the Gentile Times in 1914 would 'prove', including that the time of trouble 'will reach its culmination and will end at that date' (Sixthly, p. 78).
