JW article's proof-texting strategy: the 'composite sign'

The Watchtower and the Second Coming | Live-stream 00:05:00 – 00:08:00

JW argument begins with Matthew 24:7-14 as the 'composite sign'

The JW article cherry-picks Matthew 24:7-14 (wars, famines, earthquakes, gospel preaching) and claims these events prove the 'sign of the Son of Man's presence.' Mike charges this is proof-texting because the passage explicitly states these are inter-advent events, not end-time triggers. Jesus says 'the end is not yet' (v.6).
