Rutherford used the Jehovah's Witnesses name because he understood the lingo, remember, he was "Da Judge".
Judges, witnesses, circuits, judicial committees, etc, are all part of the law lingo.
Good thread Terry as always!
what is the most obvious thing you can think of about jehovah's witnesses from the standpoint of worldwide recognition?.
wouldn't it be 2 primary things: the name jehovah and secondly, the public testimony or witnessing?.
let's begin deconstructing those two things.. first, why would christians refer to themselves by any other name than christian?.

do jehovahs witnesses feel that they are the only people who will be saved?.
many millions who lived in centuries past and who werent jehovahs witnesses will have an opportunity for salvation.
the bible explains that in gods promised new world, there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.
Upon reading this, any good reader should see that the answer is:
Do Jehovah’s Witnesses Feel That They Are the Only People Who Will Be Saved?
No. You could be saved if you fall into these two groups:
1) If you die before Armageddon*
2) If you become a JW before Armageddon.
So, Do Jehovah’s Witnesses Feel That They Are the Only People Who Will Be Saved?
Yes.
* I wouldn't classify a person dying before Armageddon as been "saved", but being ressurected. So, that only leaves you with 2) as been the only way to be saved.

Is this leaked Cappytan? cuz I dont see it online.
been hearing this from various people from the cong that jw.org is a clear sign that god is directing the org.. i have various friends in the it dept not only in brooklyn but mexico and colombia, just a fact there is 5 to 6 it dept all over the world that give support to jworgie 24/7... so i have ask them how they came up with the website wich is not the best but not the worst by far.
all four of them told me the same story, there is a brother in florida that is profesor of some kind computer class and as project he made them work on the website so students of these college helped launch this site.. so more like jah backing it has more like satan backing...
What explanation was given as proof that it has god's backing? Why is it a clear sign that god is backing the web site? I don't get it.
No need for back up proof. WT/GB/FDS's style to proof things if just to say it so.
Charlatans.
in the february jw broadcasting they show anthony morris the iii out witnessing with his wife during a convention.
she is wearing the convention badge and also a badge with sophia & caleb on it.
i find it very amusing and she is not even a grandmother even though they like to portray am as a grandfather.. here's what their 1990 w 12/1 says about movie stars.
i think i've mentioned before that from time to time my commute on the bqe takes me past the old factory buildings and the soon to be former headquarters building.
i was struck the other day with how shabby they've become.
even 25 columbia heights, still currently occupied, its facade is filthy.
