  A different viewpoint of "many will come in my name saying I am the Christ"

  most jws are familiar with the scripture at matthew 24:5: "for many will come in my name, saying, ‘i am the christ,’ and they will lead many astray.".

  it is implied that people would come in jesus' name declaring that they were christ - but could there be another view on this scripture?

  could this also mean that jesus said many would come in his name saying he is christ?.

  Thanks Vanderhoven. It seems the scripture means what is commonly thought.

  Thanks reslight for your response. Very interesting. Seems that Rutherford completely hijacked the organization after Russel's death.

  https://www.cbs.com/shows/strange-angel/

  The Jet Propulsion Laboratory is derived from Jack Parson's initials. While researching Jack Parsons, I found a book called Sex and Rockets. It specifically mentions Charles Taze Russell.

  Page 9 of this book says this: "Charles Taze Russell, founder of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, announced that the apocalypse would begin on October 2 — coincidentally or synchronistically, the very day Marvel Whiteside Parsons [who would later, as Jack Parsons, call himself the AntiChrist] emerged from his mother’s womb, or from even darker places, and began to investigate and meddle with this planet. (https://rawilson.wordpress.com/2007/06/20/sex-and-rockets/)"

  https://books.google.com/books?id=jVX5AgAAQBAJ&pg=PT27&lpg=PT27&dq=charles+taze+russell+jack+parsons&source=bl&ots=Er7wxPGTHu&sig=PSsHwXCm5M5pR2Se7E7q-femfvc&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwik5Ni7zo_cAhUiZN8KHW3uATgQ6AEIWDAL#v=onepage&q=charles%20taze%20russell%20jack%20parsons&f=false

  In an ominous coincidence, Charles Taze Russell, whose "Russellites" now call themselves the Jehovah's Witnesses, predicted the end of the world would happen on October 2, 1914, the day of John Parson's birth, and just a couple of months after the start of World War I. When Russell announced to his congregation in Brooklyn, New York, that the end had begin, he meant the finale was not an instantaenous end to all things, but rather the beginnign of the end as outlined in the Book of Revelation - the appearance of the Antichrist and the harlot, Babylon the Great, being two of the key events. It is ironic that John Parsons, who would later attempt to incarnare Babylon and who would also sign an oath stating that he was the Antichrist, was born the very day of Russell's eschatological event.

  The book Angels & Maggots written by Nathan Neuharth says: "Jack Parsons A.K.A. John Whiteside Parsons A.K.A. Marvel Parsons was born on October 2, 1914. This was the date Charles Taze Russell, founder of the Jehovah's Witnesses, predicted that the end of the world would happen."

  While researching Jack Parsons, I found a book called Sex and Rockets. It specifically mentions Charles Taze Russell. Bear in mind that Parsons was 2 years old when Russell died in 1916.

  Page 9 of this book says this: "Charles Taze Russell, founder of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, announced that the apocalypse would begin on October 2 — coincidentally or synchronistically, the very day Marvel Whiteside Parsons [who would later, as Jack Parsons, call himself the AntiChrist] emerged from his mother’s womb, or from even darker places, and began to investigate and meddle with this planet" (https://rawilson.wordpress.com/2007/06/20/sex-and-rockets/).

  Here is one thing that really annoys me.

  I live opposite a large hospital. There is a pedestrian crossing connecting the hospital to the other side of the road. It is at the end of the crossing that the dubs have their literature cart. They are within spitting distance of the hospital entrance. There they were last week at it again, this time, the featured magazine was "Will Suffering Ever End?"

  For me, there are only reasons why people go to hospital. They are sick or they are visiting someone who is sick. I hear a third option. People work there.

  But for the first two reasons I mentioned, I think it is very inappropriate for the witnesses to be showing their "Will Suffering End" magazine so prominently to hospital visitors.

  Suggestions? Could I contact hospital management and ask that they leave or go somewhere else less prominent?
