Permanent Marker Series: E4, Page 377

We're only one page beyond the Executive Trustee's misread references and we've got three problems. First, his new consecrators between 1878-81 have no opportunities to serve in the Harvest until the gleaning in 1881 and it should be indicated. Second, more were consecrating than could have crowns since 1878, not 1881. Third, we have to exchange the indefinite condition for the definite--the clear understanding that Brother Johnson gave on the difference between the unbegotten consecrated and the Youthful Worthies as he later details in PT April 1947, pages 52-53:

“It is true that our Pastor called the class that we call Youthful Worthies, not Youthful Worthies, but the Unbegotten Consecrated, by which expression he meant exactly what we mean by that of the Youthful Worthies. We may be sure that in denying the existence of a class that our Pastor repeatedly affirmed exists, this Brother is a revolutionist…”

“…thus the Brother's assumption of restitution following immediately after God's last visit to Gentiles for Little Flock members falls to the ground. The Youthful Worthies as individuals have been developing since in 1881 the general call ceased, and as a class since the last Little Flock member was won in 1914.”
