Charles T. Russell and Phrenology

Charles T. Russell had many pagan and occult beliefs and practices during his leadership of the Watchtower Society and those beliefs continued well into the Rutherford era. According to a fairy tale invented in recent decades, Jesus took kindom power in 1914 and chose the Watchtower Society in 1918 after inspecting it. Well with pyramidology (1914), Egyptology, Phrenology, Astrology, Freemasonry, etc, you can be well aware that they invented such a story. Jesus NEVER chose ANY organization at ANY time, and surely not such a deceiving cult.

1. The fact is - as shown in the video above - that Russell taught Phrenology as truth.

2. Many churches that followed man rather than God did teach racism and so did Russell as shown in my videos. Russell was therefore NOT following God but man.

3. As shown in my video "Armageddon, 1914 or 1915? What did pastor Russell teach?"

In the book "The time is at hand" upto the 1913 ed., he taught 1914 and in the 1914 ed., he taught 1915 for armageddon. This is how you missquote!

@TheScrewedGeneration Long before 1914, although Russell mentioned several dates that some of his associates had suggested concerning expectations of events after 1914, Russell stated he found no prophetic support for any of these dates (including that of October, 1915).

[reslight]

@TheScrewedGeneration Russell died in 1916 still believing that the Gentile Times had ended in 1914, and that the time of trouble had begun then, as he had believed ever since 1904. He certainly never “just abstained from quoting dates”, if by that is meant that Russell stopped using the dates he had defended for several decades.

[reslight]

@TheScrewedGeneration The year 1915 was presented by John Edgar a long time before 1914 and was published in the Watch Tower in 1905; that year was not presented as a replacement for 1914, but Edgar was suggesting that date as the end of the time of trouble.

@TheScrewedGeneration Russell stated many times his view that the time of trouble was to begin, not end in 1914. See my video on this.

[reslight]

@TheScrewedGeneration Russell had no prophecies, but I believe that most of the dates he presented are correct. The only one I question is that of 1881. Your references to 1914 was his earlier view before 1904; after 1904 he was not expecting the full end in 1914.

@TheScrewedGeneration Racism was very strong amongst many church goers in the days of Russell. If one takes time to actually study what he wrote, rather than select quotes out of context, one could see that Russell was actually ahead of his time on racism. See my site ctr reslight net under the category “racist”.

@TheScrewedGeneration Actual quotes from Russell can be obtained by reading “Russell and Phrenology” on my website ctr reslight net, and using the search links provided at the bottom of the post. Although I am sure that Russell did believe his statements concerning Phrenology to be truth, he never presented his thoughts on such matters as though others had to accept his beliefs on this.

@TheScrewedGeneration A “misquote” is a where a quote is wrongfully attributed a person, or a quote that changes the words of what a person actually stated. When did I attribute to Russell something that he did not say?
