JW's are not Christian, like the Mormon's they're another new age cult that claims to be christian.
1. Cult was started by Charles Russel
2. 1874 was the date Jesus returned invisibly.
3. World would end in 1914.
Important thing to remember is that Russel had very little education and no Tcheological background.
4. You can't understand the bible without Russels "Studies in the Scriptures".
5 Egypt's pyramid is God's Second witness, placed on Earth by God; Passages vertified 1914 as the date of the end of the World.
6. 1914 came and went, date was pushed forward to 1915, then 1918; he gave basically false prophecies which makes him a false Prophet.
7. He commited adultery with a servant girl while his wife was pounding on the opposite side of the door.
9. Russel was fascinated by Pyramidology, and the occult, Phranology.
10. Watchtower Butchered the scriptures, misquoted a number of well known greek scholars Dr J Armanti; "New World Translation" is called shocking, obselete and incorrect by EVERY SINGLE BIBLICAL SCHOLAR.
