About Carol Massey
Expertise
I can answer any Bible questions that most people today are wondering about. Why do we suffer and grow old and die? Does God care? What is God`s name. Is there a Trinity? Who is the ruler of this world? What is going to happen to the world? What happens to us when we die? We all have questions from time to time which put doubts in us, but once we have a true understanding of the scriptures we can put those doubts behind us and get a true sense of security toward our future.

Experience

Past/Present clients
Any one of us, as Jehovah's Witnesses, have had such a numerous number of Bible students and conversations at doors. The people we run into vary from housewifes, to homeless, to doctors. Everyone has the same questions and doubts and fears! We are all human, no matter what station in life we may hold. And everyone deserves the opportunity to live forever.

I believe that the fall of jerusalem was in 587/6.
my proof of this date
1.The fall of babylon was in 539bc
It is well to understand that all bible chronology dates for events prior to 539bc must be figured backwards from the absolute date of 539bc.
w55 2/1 p.95 questions from readers.
2.There were four kings that reign after Nebuchadnezzar is Evil Merodach,Neriglissar,Labashi Marduk and Nabonidus.
3.The reign of the kings of babylon from Nebuchadnezzar to the fall of babylon in 539bc.

Nebuchadnezzar reign 43 years from 605bc to 562bc
Evil Merodach reign 2 years from 562bc to 560bc
Neriglissar reign 4 years from 560bc to 556bc
Labashi Murduk reign 9 months in 556bc
Nabonidus reign 17 years from 556bc to 539bc
To see these kings reign check w65 1/1 p.29 The rejoicing of the wicked is short-lived and w60 6/15 p.377 Your will be done on earth. Put in the search bar Nabonidus and click search.double click on insight and choose insight,volume 2 and double click on the name Nabonidus.
4.Nebuchadnezzer started to reign at the age of 25 years in 605bc.He died at the age of 68 years in 562bc.He was born in the year 630bc.
5.From Nebuchadnezzar reign in 605bc to the fall of babylon in 539bc is 66 years. 605bc-66years=539bc.
6.In Jeremiah 52:12-14,2kings 25:8-10. Jersalem was destroyed in the nineteen year reign of Nebuchadnezzar. 605bc-19years=586bc.
7.Jeremiah 52:12-14,2kings 25:8-10 Say that Jerusalem was destroyed and Jeremiah 52:28-30 say when Nebuchadnezzar carried away the captive from Jerusalem.
8.So you see the last king of judah king Zedekiah was removed from his throne in 587bc in Nebuchadnezzar 18 regnal year and Jerusalem was destroyed in 586bc in Nebuchadnezzar 19 year reign and not 607bc.
