Watchtower History

WATCHTOWER HISTORY VIDEOS


We have decided to include links to these videos since they mostly relate to the changes in the Watch Tower Society after Russell died. Many do not realize how drastic the changes were. Very insidiously, Rutherford did away with the ransom for all and changed it to exclude many unregenerated people from the ransom, as well as to create his Armageddon doctrine that basically states that everyone who does not join the organization he created would be eternally destroyed in Armageddon.
