Bible Note: Hi Bows, According to "The Kingdom of the Cults" in chapter 4 on the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, the opposite is stated. Dr. Walter Martin writes, "Charles Taze Russell was the founder of what is now Jehovah's Witnesses and the energetic administator that brought about its far-flung organization. The name Jehovah's Witnesses, incidentally, was taken at Columbus Ohio, in 1931, to differentiate between the Watchtower and the true followers of Russell..." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
