If it does not happen by the end of 1976, will you then conclude that it cannot happen or will not happen?

I believe it will happen. But if it does not, I am not going to flagellate myself. I am only doing what God has told me to do. Because we tried, there will be millions of people in the Kingdom who would otherwise not have been in the Kingdom. That makes it worthwhile. I'm only doing what I think God wants me to do.
