But how do we know the GB is God's organization?

Okay, here is a sincere question--one I used to ask when I was a Witness:

The WTS leadership teaches that the 144,000 annointed, and the 1000-year reign are literal numbers, right?
And Revelation says that Jesus Christ and the 144,000 will reign for 1000 years, right?
And you accept these numbers as literal, right?
Please correct on any point where I am mistaken.

Now could you explain this:
Jesus took up his reign in 1914 and that was 85 years ago (this month) right?
And the all except a "remnant" of the 144K annointed were resurrected to reign with him in 1919 (81 years ago), right?
And the 1000 years has not begun yet, and is set to begin at some presently-undetermined point of time in the future (predicted by the imperfect GB to be in the near future), right?
Now if Armageddon were to happen tomorrow, the reign would have to be no less than 1085 years for Jesus, and 1081 years for less than 144,000 to reign with him (since a remnant are still here on earth (and the number growing but that is incidental to the point), and these must not die in Armageddon, is that right?.
So in literal terms, how can it ever be said that Jesus reigned with a literal 144,000 for a literal 1000 years, being that Jehovah is a perfect "time keeper"?
