The truth and light that Jehovah sheds upon his Word today are strong corroborative evidence that we are in “that day” when the forces are gathering for Armageddon.

Before their change and before the battle of Armageddon the nations of the earth must have a witness.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. May 14
The work of thus serving notice, or giving the witness to the name of Jehovah, is but the prelude to the great battle of Armageddon.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. June 8
“His strange work” therefore seems to be some mighty and phenomenal exhibition of divine power in the destruction of the enemy in the battle of Armageddon.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. June 20
Satan and his organization not only are out of harmony with Jehovah, but also oppose him, and especially now when Armageddon is impending.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. June 27
They must now tell the people that Jehovah is God and declare the day of his vengeance against Satan’s organization, and thus give witness to lead the people to God, that some may hear and understand before the battle of Armageddon begins.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. August 12
Undoubtedly this is a brief description of the battle of Armageddon, in which God through Christ will grind these world powers into a powder and destroy them for ever.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. August 26
Jehovah’s exhibition of divine power against the enemy at Armageddon will seem a “strange act” to all on earth except those in harmony with him; hence, as the remnant puts forth its utmost effort to give the witness to God’s enemies, many may and will scoff and call them foolish.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. September 1
Taken together, the living creatures and the in- animate instruments give the appearance of an enormous living chariot-like organization; it pictures Jehovah’s mighty organization moving into action just prior to the great battle of Armageddon, and upon which God rides and over which he presides. God’s “remnant” is a part of this divine organization.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. September 13
Such a class of people, now seeking meekness and righteousness, may be hid in the day of Jehovah’s expressed wrath, be carried beyond the battle of Armageddon, and live for ever and not die.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. October 19
These words indicate comfort and blessings to the people, and may be taken to indicate that some of the present “remnant” will be on earth even after Armageddon is fought and will then have some more work to do in the name and to the praise and glory of Jehovah.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. November 2
Manifestly the “little moment” that they are to hide themselves therein is the “short time” that Satan knows that he has to prepare for and to fight the battle of Armageddon. Only those who discern God’s lightnings flashing since 1918 see that there is a place of safety and hide themselves therein.
1930 Yearbook of the International Bible Students Association. 1929. December 17
They serve warning by informing the rulers and peoples of earth concerning Jehovah’s intention through Christ Jesus to destroy the adversary ‘s world organization in the battle of Armageddon.
