Ask current Jehovah's Witnesses if they KNOW what happened in 1954 (SHOCKING)
by Terry in(referred to below: watchtower bible and tract society presidents: russell, rutherford, knorr, franz )did you know that from 1879 until 1954 ... ... the writings of c.t.russell, j.f.rutherford, nathan knorr, and the watchtower's own charter... ... agreed ... that jesus christ was to be worshiped?this fact has been cleverly and dramatically hidden by manipulation of older quotations.
______________________________________________________________________pastor charles taze russell answers the question for us.
see below zion’s watch tower 1898 jul 15 p.216“question: the fact that our lord received worship is claimed by some to be an evidence that while on earth he was god the father disguised in a body of flesh and not really a man.

Yes excellent work on that Terry.
One thing the WTS has always tried to do particularly when Rutherford took over the organization is distinctively separate from Christendom's practice of worshiping Jesus.
Christendom got it wrong we have it right.
The WTS men essentially placed themselves between Jesus and mankind, salvation through Jesus comes through them, not Jesus individually to mankind, righteousness in the eyes of god can only be achieved through them.
So you can see they strategically placed themselves in a position of power over all mankind.

Lets speak the truth and say the preaching work designated by the WTS had everything to do with proliferating the literature the WTS published.
The established American government made that all possible without controls, regulation or taxation.
They essentially went about marketing the gospel of Jesus in their own unique and self serving way
Sure it was a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus but it worked, there are a lot of people who never read the bible carefully and the WTS leaders accepted and self assumed that.

JW's - your hierarchy perverts the Bible so much, why?
by The Fall Guy in(revelation 5:10) - and you made them to the god of us kingdom and priests, and they are reigning upon the earth.

Why is because the leaders and directors of the WTS were strategically endeavored to sell and proliferate literature and build a semblance of power around themselves.
Identifying themselves as the Faithful Discrete Slave, the anointed ones etc. (1919)
But in reality they were commercialized false prophets full of lies, corruption and sin.
Many times power and money have made men corrupt toward their own self serving means.

Child Baptism - March 2020 monthly program
by neat blue dog inthe march 2020 monthly program of jw broadcasting mentions child baptism a couple of times.. the first was in an interview with an 80-something jw who said that after he was baptized he prayed 'you can bring the end any time now jehovah', admitting that his likely reason was that he thought the end was imminent and he would die otherwise.
but then he goes on to recommend child baptism, saying it should be "for as young as they can possibly make it".. then regarding some large recent conventions, they mention that at one where almost a thousand were baptized, are large portion (no exact number given) were children..

What is the benefit of God's Kingdom?
by Half banana inwhat is the benefit of god's kingdom?.
the watchtower said when it started out in 1879 that god's kingdom had already arrived in heaven in 1874 and that its work would be complete by 1914. .
with heroic slogans of "destroying the kings of the earth" and "all enemies of christ the king" etc by 1914, "god fearing" humankind was to have been restored to prelapsarian innocence and the earth to a global edenic paradise.

From a theological perspective date setting as which the WTS/JWS leaders have done is an act unloyal apostasy for Jesus himself admonished his followers when on earth of doing just that, saying how dare you set a time upon god's own sacred time.
But selling the new Kingdom order as coming soon was a viable propagation for selling literature to the masses and those who believed in the bible.
They were essentially modern day false prophets active in sin.
The WTS has been selling a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus for over 140 years.

Will you attend the Memorial 2020 ? - Covid-19 (Coronavirus)
by bats in the belfry in... or rather listen to the advice on their jw news website:.
show love to others.
while we all know the importance of attending christian meetings and participating in the public ministry, if you are sick, it is best to stay home to avoid infecting others.

I wouldn't attend the JWS memorial in spite of the Corona virus , for its a wrongly devised and practice of taking the emblems which represent the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
All of his faithful followers are to partake as " his instructions " and its gods decision among these who are to become the anointed, not an individual's choice or decision.

The only thing the JWS have accomplished in doing is fulfilling the scriptural identity of being false prophets by preaching a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, thereby making themselves sinning apostates in the eyes of god.
1 John 4:1 .......
4 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
