    The Creation Of Jehovah's Witnesses By Charles Taze Russel

    The creation of Jehovah’s Witnesses was in 1872 by Charles Taze Russel. Russel was a Protestant Christian and left due to the fact that he couldn’t believe God could send people to hell. He began publishing a magazine to gain people to become Jehovah’s Witnesses. Next, he studied the Egyptian pyramids for the second coming of Christ. He taught his followers about Christ returning, and how he would set up a kingdom in 1914. In 1914 the prophecy failed and in 1916 Russel died. Judge Rutherford took his place and abandoned the pyramid idea and instead focused on the end of times. He predicted the end of the world in 1975, people believed him and they sold their houses devoting themselves to god. Come 1975 this did not happen and Rutherford lost…

    Jehovahs Witnesses: A Bible Study

    Although seen by many throughout the world as a pseudo-Christian cult, Jehovahs Witnesses also known as the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, identifies themselves as the only authentic followers of Jehovah. Christian scholars and apologists however continue to disprove their claim due to the multitude of pseudo-doctrines, which are clearly outside of orthodox Christianity. Charles Russell founded this movement in Pennsylvania as a Bible Study group in 1872. He had difficulty accepting the idea of hell and therefore came to deny its existence and from then on attacked core elements of Christianity such as the Trinity using his personal interpretations…

    Comparing The Holy Bible: Covenant, Sphere Sovereignty, And Social Justice

    The Bible supports social justice, as we have a covenant with God because “if he would do that us then we had better do that with one another” (Fischer, 2013) and look out for one another and become accountable to each other. That is one reason that government must be limited in the amount of power they yield on making policy or decisions that will affect a person’s inalienable rights of having the ability to make their own choices as to what they feel is best for themselves. In using a form of Sphere Sovereignty, “Citizens are required to participate in the political process as a means of limiting tyranny” (Fischer, 2013, p.2) and to contribute to solving the problems. There has to be limits on the powers on government as they “ought not impose a uniform policy on all” (Monsma, 2008 p.119) as there would then be no true covenant relationship as they would not be doing what is best or fair to all, as we all have the same inalienable rights. Leviticus 24:22 “You shall have the same rule for the sojourner and for the native, for I am the Lord your God.” (Holy Bible, ESV).…

    Jehovah's Witnesses Research Paper

    The Holocaust is known for the mass murders of Jewish people under the power of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party, which is also known as the National Socialist group, but there were many other groups that were persecuted during this time. The National Socialist group also persecuted Gypsies, Homosexuals, Blacks, handicapped and disabled, and last but not least Jehovah’s Witnesses. Jehovah’s Witnesses were not persecuted because of their racial appearances but because of their religion. Sometimes religion can be more important than your own life. The Jehovah’s Witnesses were targeted because of their refusal to swear loyalty to the Nazi’s or to serve in their armed forces. (Jehovah’s Witness: Article)…

    New Testament Historical Perspective

    At the onset of Jesus’ ministry, people recognized His message as one being authoritative. He preached the kingdom of God with a conviction and focus unknown before His arrival.

    Jehovah's Witnesses

    Jehovah’s Witnesses go door to door while other religious groups let people come to them. They do this because they consider it an honor to spread the word of god. Their religious practices are generally similar to others they worship God, pray to him, and think that all things good come from him. Jehovah’s Witnesses believe God can not lie therefore what the bible says will come true and earth will someday be cleansed of all the “wickedness”. In addition, most religions do some kind of baptizing when a child is young however, Jehovah’s Witnesses only baptise those who want to serve as a Jehovah’s Witness.…

    Righteous Gentiles

    The term “Righteous Gentile” or “Righteous among the Nations” is used to name those non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust. The title is used informally as referring to anyone considered to be a savior of Jews, but it has an official role in the Israeli program of Holocaust remembrance, administered by Yad Vashem. The criteria established by Yad Vashem include the following: — “The rescuer ensured the survival of a Jew or Jews by extending aid to them when they were in danger of being killed or sent to a concentration camp; — The rescuer knew that he was risking his own life, freedom, and safety by acting to save the Jewish life; — The rescuer did not receive and did not expect any compensation for the aid he was giving; — The rescuer acted on his own initiative, and was directly involved and personally responsible for what he did; — The rescuer’s aid can be authenticated by eyewitness evidence and, whenever possible, by relevant documentation.”(Righteous). Everyone who attempted to rescue Jews was considered a criminal and put their life on the line to save the lives of others. Righteous Gentiles were not only brave, but were ultimate examples of the goodness still left in humanity. There are countless examples of these “righteous gentiles” throughout the Holocaust who went to extreme measures solely to save Jewish lives. The punishment for a righteous gentile who was caught in the act was different from country to country also.…
