    Does anyone have ANY further information on this group, C.H Zook, documents, or otherwise?

    The Servants of Yah
    [1925 - ???]

    Probably the strangest of all Bible Student groups. Headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, and led by C.H. Zook, they believed that Satan's name was Jehovah, so that Jehovah's Witnesses were really Witnesses of Satan. They are Universalist, who deny armageddon, the flood, water baptism, the ransom, restitution, etc. They had branches in Levittown, New York and Vienna, Austria. They believe that only 144,000 are destined to discover the hidden meaning of the scriptures and enter heaven. The meaning is hidden partly because they believe that our Bible texts were altered. They see the Bible as primarily prophecy, most of which relates to the present century. They believe that everyone who ever lived will live forever on a paradise earth except the 144,000 who live in heaven. This group also dwindled to non-existence.
