Charles Russell vs Watchtower

I guess it was the 1990s when the Internet was just getting a foothold in global communications and when we had our own personal computers at our desks at work with free rein to search about anything we wanted on the Internet. Very few had personal computers in their homes at the time, at least in my circle of friends as it was not really considered a necessity and the video games were very basic and not really interesting. So, at work was where I could start searching for anything that interested me aside from actually researching projects for work.

Let's back up a bit to what really started to wake me up to the Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) religion that I was born and raised in and never thought I would leave. It was the "Jehovah's Witnesses Proclaimers of God's Kingdom" book published in 1993 by the Watch Tower and Bible Tract Society. Oh yes, the Internet was starting to stir up trouble for many religious organizations, not only the JWs. I clicked on sites about Scientology since that religion was intriguing because of the Hollywood stars who talked about being members. Oh wait, that was a cult and many secret documents were uploaded to the world wide web that I couldn't get enough of. Then I read about the Mormons, more secret documents and people coming forward with their testimonies of secret ceremonies. Oh wait, the JWs were included on those websites. What? They are really harmless people with not much drama. Well, a lot was being revealed as in their entire basis for their beliefs was on the study of pyramids, Egyptology, they used Masonic symbols and tenets, there were links with Aleister Crowley and his Golden Dawn, and on and on.

The leaders of the Watch Tower could no longer ignore their dark roots and a bleach job was needed. Enter the "Proclaimers Book". It was a way to whitewash their history yet come clean about it and hopefully silence anyone with a website spouting all kinds of things against the Watchtower. The book revealed that Charles Taze Russell, who founded the Bible Students that became the incorporated JWs after his death, based his end of the world predictions on the measurements of the pyramids. Yeah, this book woke me up. However, the book is difficult to follow in that it is not in chronological order and ends up being an advertisement for the JWs' worldwide business operations.

But I wondered why I was never taught about the roots of my religion and I never questioned it since I thought the teachings really didn't change that much. I knew about how they used to celebrate the holidays and birthdays but so what, that was not a huge deal to me. But the Masonic connections, end of times doomsday beliefs that had many dates with 1914 being the last one that was changed to being the start of the end times, then later leading up to 1975 which the JWs now blame the membership for spreading such lies about Armageddon happening that year.

The same tactics and explanations are used
to this day regarding 1975 being the date of
Armageddon. They blamed the membership when
evidence exists across the Internet that the leadership
came up with that date and we bought it.

Pretty interesting that a self-proclaimed leader of the ex-JW community claims to know everything about Charles Russell but it's only because the original Bible Students provide funding for his YouTube channel and blog site with Watchtower PR agents supporting it as well as the only official ex-JW site since it's a fake and a misdirection to keep you busy on useless information making you feel great about staying inside those Kingdom Halls and sitting there like a fool thinking you are having one up on them. Walk out, that is what they don't want you to do. They want you sitting there thinking, oh I am so much smarter than these people, I can be awake yet attend every meeting! Hey, that's what they want you to do - walk away now; don't try to beat a cult at their own game. You will lose.

The JWs don't like that image portrayed of themselves as a bunch of Masons in a lodge that were basically ignored people who stole beliefs from the Adventists and slapped their own name on a Masonic Lodge and always met in lodges or halls down to this day. Some useless YouTuber living off his in-laws in a basement is Watchtower approved because they want to squelch drama while the Bible Students want revenge - so to speak - against the company that stills owns them. Yes, there are factions in the ex-JW community as well as with the Bible Students who are still sitting inside those Kingdom Halls and are now called JWs. You may recognize them in your area. They are the ones with the nicely groomed beards that may give public talks only in their own congregation and may be allowed to preach from door-to-door but that's it. They don't have positions of authority in the Kingdom Halls but are tolerated. Their bloodlines date back to the beginning.

Oh it matters if the leaders of your religious society are Masons or not, most are, most religions are based on Masonic tenets. Religion is a way to control society since nonbelievers are already under the control of governments to bring an end to Christianity. Why is a pyramid on your dollar bill? Oh yeah, it's a mystery. You have to realize that if you are still a JW then you are in a doomsday religion that is making major money off of this world while the membership are banned from higher education, getting a career not just a job, starting families and building personal wealth, traveling for fun and not for Watch Tower, and the list goes on. You are serving the masters of this universe that get rich off of your fears of a doomsday. Any doomsday that may happen is eons away as nature continues and survives with or without humans. This earth is here to stay and no God is destroying anything. If this system we live in was not all created on purpose then God or Higher Beings would have stopped it eons ago to stop human suffering.

I think a good place to start on the Masonic roots of the Watchtower is with this interesting YouTube video. Pay attention to the beginning and make sure and access their channel and do a search of Freemasons or Masons on their site for their videos. It is a bit of a rabbit hole but one worth crawling inside of and digging deep into the roots of the Watchtower.

Another excellent video is linked below about how Masons duped unsuspecting Christians into a doomsday religion and scammed them out of their dough which is still happening down to this day. Wake up to Mr. Watchtower Apologist Company Man; he is being exposed in the video link below. Yes, Mr. Basement Dweller, Charles Russell refers to Jesus as a Grand Master.

Faulty Towers

The Watchtower, Bible and Tract Society has become a huge global corporation with many corporations formed under various names all owned by the Jehovah's Witness (JW) organization. They have always used a watchtower illustration on their literature and have a watchtower at their new world headquarters in Warwick, New York. They are the watchers of world events for their flock to look out for the start of a Great Tribulation that will bring about a global destruction of all non-JWs, specifically the people who refuse to join the JW religious movement or were evicted or left for whatever reason. They believe that they are the one true channel to God via Jesus, and no other organization on earth is being used by God except the JWs. This belief is faulty, and the Watchtower's power over its flock is crumbling decade after decade where enlightened people are not afraid to question its edicts, policies and beliefs that have little to do with the original intent of the scriptures.

You will recall stories of The Watchers, angels that said nothing but watched over the first humans and the affairs of man on earth. It is suggested they were the ones who looked upon the perfect women of earth and took them for their wives, all that they wanted. Since the union was not within the same species, the women gave birth to giants and some believe the women all died giving birth to these giant, overgrown newborn babies and so the fallen angels kept procreating with women. Some suggest they even mated with animals creating the mythological creatures where they were human/animal/godlike beings with special characteristics and powers beyond normal humans.

The Watchtower corporation is steeped in such mysteries and dubious roots and they are faltering, and the towers on their buildings and shown in their literature will soon be brought to nothing. The writing is on the wall as they say and a few ex-JWs did YouTube videos and talked about the Russian government banning JWs and the letter writing campaign wondering if it broke any records. Well, so far the answer is no, it broke no records at least not as far as qualifying for the Guinness Book of World Records.

JWs have always had troubles with the Russian government and the recent ban is nothing new. But this time it seems like a permanent ban and the Watchtower properties seized by the government and the liquidation of all their assets in that country. The JW leadership are headquartered in Warwick, New York, yes the "New World" headquarters, because the JWs are fully entrenched in the New World Order that is touted by the elite, ruling class of this globe and why the JW religious movement has amassed such great wealth into the billions of dollars. No one does that unless their last name is Rothschild or Rockefeller, but oh yes, this small group of Bible students that started in Pennsylvania, emerged as a new world society called Jehovah's Witnesses with some rejecting this new religion and refused to merge with the new church and stayed as Bible Students which exist to this day but are very a small group and hardly a global corporation worth a billion dollars.

So. the JW leadership issued orders that all JWs write letters to the Russian government opposing the ban and explaining they are a peace loving people, etc. Well, under one million out of the reported eight million total membership of the JWs wrote letters to Russia. So what happened here? Do the leaders simply lie about the actual number of baptized JWs? Or are they counting all JWs who are publishers? Or all JWs that are actually members of each congregation whether they are children and/or not baptized? 

In a congregation, everyone is counted at each meeting. There are always attendants taking a head count of each person there, including all children and including any so-called worldly person off the street. Everyone is counted. However, all publishers [JWs who preach from door to door distributing JW literature] have a card that is kept in each Kingdom Hall and a record is kept of the hours spent in the public ministry work. But again, what happened with the letter writing campaign to Russia? Not even one million wrote letters? Even little kids can write something and the family head can mail the letters for the family so it doesn't make sense that not even one million JWs wrote letters to the Russian government.

Well, the towers are coming down. People are waking up to this false religion every year and many are simply walking away with some boldly confronting the elders in their congregation and questioning the faulty belief system and they are getting evicted [called disfellowshipping when you are shunned by all JW friends and family and permanently considered no longer a JW].

The tower card in the upright
position means ruin, disruption,
and bankruptcy.

The Tower card in the tarot deck is the Watchtower Society in that it means confusion and chaos, and the Watchtower leadership have confused the flock for a century with their circular logic, changing doctrine back and forth where old light is recycled into new light and it goes on and on leaving everyone quite dazed, confused and zombie-like in their unquestioning devotion since they don't know what is right and wrong, only what Watchtower tells them to do and they hope they are following the new light which means following what's printed in their literature for only the past few years and discarding all past publications unless they are told otherwise by the leadership.

In some tarot card designs, the tower is shown struck by lightning. Its alternative titles are Castle of Plutus, God's House, and the Tower of Babel. In the last case, there are figures falling from the tower and are held to be Nimrod and his minister. It is assuredly a card of confusion and it can be interpreted that the House of God has been abandoned and the veil of the temple rent. It is a little surprising that it has not been allocated to the destruction of Solomon's Temple, when the lightning would symbolize the fire and sword with which the edifice was visited by the King of the Chaldeans.

Chaos is assigned the number 16. 
Reduced to seven it means change or options
with the number 7 in the deck meaning determination
and seeker of truth.

It's time to be determined to free yourself from being locked in the tower. Attaining knowledge is the key to freedom from any mind controlling society. Don't be afraid to leave the tower now and to hopefully take your loved ones with you. It is worth the effort.

Use your Chariot card and flee the Tower. Seek truth,
not religious dogma.
