What did Russell mean when he said: "The Gentile times have ended: their kings have had their day!" The end of the Gentile times meant the beginning of Christ's kingdom, correct?

Nope! He just meant the end of the age, and the beginning of troubles for all the nations. I'm sure this poster will get background support (Instant Messaging) from others who are as much in the dark as this poster here.

The time period infers a beginning and an end. The teaching of the Watchtower magazine has been that the Gentile times began in 607 and ended in 1914. Why did they end? Because according to the Watchtower, Christ began ruling in 1914.

The Watchtower was NOT the only one making that claim. However, the Watchtower is the only one that has corrected the "time of the gentiles" to be from 607BC instead of 606BC as many others have affirmed.

There's a very good reason why 607BC stands correct under historical chronology.

(As regards "disfellowshipping", in a family it is not standard operating procedure to "execute" or "drive out of the house" ones brothers and sisters. Only the parents have that authority.

In my personal experience, I NEVER saw anyone execute or drive someone from a home by word of an Elder. If parents told a child to leave because of being drunkard, drug addicts, wanting to bring in their lovers home, then those parents exercised their moral obligation as true Christians. If they applied scripture, then more so.

Therefore, this poster should not act sanctimonious when the poster has none to begin with.

The verse in 2 John about "not saying a greeting" is worded differently in the Kingdom Interlinear. It means not to encourage someone in their wrongdoing.

Is this poster an expert in linguistics? How about being proficient? Perhaps knowledgeable in linguistics.

Now recite the chapter, and verse in John as a reference point.

"THE LAW WAS A SHADOW"

The Apostle explains to us that the various things commanded Israel under their Law Covenant were prophetic shadows illustrating higher things—things appertaining to Spiritual Israel. Thus, for instance, the disease of leprosy, practically incurable, except by Divine interposition, was a type of sin; and the seven days of excommunication from the favored people represented a full and complete period of tests as respects a putting away of sin, a cleansing, a return to harmony with God."

DECENTLY AND IN ORDER.

—————

"Let all things be done decently and in order."—1 Corinthians 14:40.

RECENTLY, by various circumstances among the companies of the saints, our attention has been drawn to the subject of order in the Church. As the numbers of those separated from "Babylon" by the sickle of harvest truth increase, and in small or larger groups assemble themselves together as the Lord directed (Heb. 10:25), we find new difficulties and see new dangers arising, particularly on account of the great activity of our ever-vigilant adversary. These have led us again to a very careful consideration of the subject in the light of the Scriptures.

Once again, if people are going to use the Bible Student Era as a sticking point, LEARN to understand it!!

Don't just automatically assume like some former Bethel member.

This poster is showing nothing more than an "apostate" state of mind, that's all. No reasonable knowledge about scripture. 

• The phrase “without natural affection” comes from one Greek word (astorgos) that is found in only one other place in the Bible– Romans 1:31. It means exactly what it says, “unsociable”, “unloving”, “inhuman”. It is the absence of the kind of love for family that is instinctive.

If this poster has an issue with the Watchtower Biblical Bylaws, I recommend this poster find another religion that would be more acceptable, until the poster finds issues with that religion or another part of Christendom.

 Yes, when the pastor spoke of organizations, if anyone read the article itself, 1895 Zion's Watch Tower, the very one

Unfortunately, some of his writing continues to be taken out of context. However, the pastor was in favor of individual congregations having their own elected Elders. This is no way disproves, he wasn't part of a collective organization of Bible students under his direction and his publishing house.

Yet, the FACT is that @Witness has to dig up a view not related to the modern day Watchtower speaks volumes of desperation from a false prophet, and anyone willing to acknowledge that understanding, since the first century churches of Christ were organized under God and Christ's word.

The article I posted also involved how the Catholic Church Bishops equate themselves as the apostles, which Pastor Russell disproved of. Therefore, there were many articles written by the pastor to relate to different types of organizations.

"The first thought of some in this connection would perhaps be: "Ah! there we have the object of [A46] their organization: with them, as with other nations, the priests ruled the people, imposing upon their credulity and exciting their fears for their own honor and profit." But hold, friend; let us not too hastily assume anything. Where there is such good opportunity for testing this matter by the facts, it would not be reasonable to jump to conclusions without the facts. The unanswerable evidences are contrary to such suppositions. The rights and the privileges of the priests were limited; they were given no civil power whatever, and wholly lacked opportunity for using their office to impose upon the rights or consciences of the people; and this arrangement was made by Moses, a member of the priestly line."

So, @Witness out of context post is meaningless.

If anyone is going to cite the Bible Student era publications, I would suggest they first understand the ideology of that era to get a meaningful context and not just read the words of an article. There are many ways from Sunday to understand them properly.

This problem also exists with many "witnesses" here that lack the proper knowledge of understanding.

"This fact, stated thus, is an unfair presentation too common to skeptics, who, possibly ignorantly, thereby misrepresent one of the most remarkable evidences of God's part in the organization of that system, and that it was not the work of a selfish and scheming priesthood. Indeed, it is not infrequently misrepresented by a modern priesthood, which urges a similar system now, using that as a precedent, without mentioning the condition of things upon which it was founded, or its method of payment."

Does this mean Pastor Russell is denying an organized structure? or the authority vested within that organization as to civil rule, like the Pharissees?

Each person's opinions are just that until they misrepresent scripture. Then it's no longer an opinion but an abomination. Therefore, those that don't hold such a person on account for bad behavior and bible misrepresentation, have nothing to do with accepting Christ's words.

However, if this poster was so bad as to upset another apostate in his forum, that says more about this poster than that other apostate. Then this poster would do Pearl Doxsey no good and her group or Org as it can be stipulated by man's and or bible standard of a gathering.

The building doesn't matter, but the gathering of the minds. So, anyone that chats on the internet or other means of electrical devices in public or private is considered a gathering regardless of how people view it. The same goes for public or private meetings or gatherings.

Research is always key, but I do find crazy is back then most Christians in the 19th century did not have all knowledge, but present day they do, and often times, any opposition will use the past against them without realizing that Restorationist operate in a way that after learning they change over time.

True. There was no real spiritual backing until Martin Luther and those in that century that started questioning the authority of the Catholic Church.

It seems, @Witness equates the Watchtower to the Catholic Church. However, that poster fails in many ways, since one of the main things about the Catholic Church is, they had a literal war, and they literally have a military, when the Watchtower never did or does.

Fast-forward, then people can see God's enlightenment progress after the 19th century, when people actually started reading the bible for themselves, and found many erred views within Christendom. 

This is why the Watchtower sets itself apart from Christendom to "revise" all that was lost from the first century teaching. Therefore, when a new way of translation is found in order to better understand the context, then it will be applied.

Sure there were expectations, but learning allows people back then to understand that they have to face reality, in terms of what God's word is truly conveying, despite that fact some Christians ended up accepting Creeds. Same case with pervious centuries, especially the fight for bible translation.

If every Christian was on the same page, it would glorify God and God would be extremely happy. Unfortunately, Satan influence prevents the majority of Christendom from facing facts. They just as want as @Witnessstipulates the authority they have compiled.

Ironically, Pastor Russell thought along those same lines when it came to questioning the CATHOLIC CHURCH's authority.

"Nothing in the Bible sanctions the view held by our Catholic brethren, to the effect that Apostolic authority and power have been handed down through the Bishops of the Catholic Church or any other."

"The picture is that of the New Jerusalem, whose dominion is to bring Divine blessing and uplifting to all the families of the earth. The New Jerusalem is declared to be a symbolical picture of the elect, saintly Church after her marriag with the Lord at His second coming. That symbolical City is represented as having twelve glorious foundation stones --and no more--and in those twelve foundation stones were the names of

Here, I agree with the poster, when it comes to how people interpret and translate scripture without a true effort to understand the word of God with wisdom. We can also apply that ideology to those that misinterpret other people's thoughts and publications.

I also recall when the Catholic POPE thought he was equal to Christ and was infallible, which I found hilarious. The good thing is the Watchtower GB don't think that way, nor do they believe, they can replace the apostles. They as fellow workers of Christ rely on God's Holy Spirit for guidance.

Not that it matters since the Bro believed in individual congregations. That doesn't exclude him: he was part of a cluster of hundreds of congregations under the publishing house Watchtower. 

This implies he felt Elders should be voted in as Elders. Contrary to the misrepresentation this poster suggests.

I do not blaspheme. Jesus has authority to judge individuals as worthy or unworthy of everlasting life. Jesus gives us permission to judge whether or not a tree is rotten. He told us to judge the tree by its fruit. It is within our authority to recognize if a shepherd is actually a wolf in sheeps covering. Jesus told us to watch out for such ones.

No misunderstanding. Yes! Jesus in due time will judge us ALL!, However, that time is NOT here yet. Therefore, God has a structured means of earthly authority as he has done in ancient times. The difference now is, true Christians use God's inspired word rather than prophets. That doesn't mean an Org shouldn't obey God's instruction to find:

Acts 6:3 New International Version

3 Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them.

That number is symbolic not literal. A true Org can have thousands of responsible men to take the lead.

Therefore, GOD will judge those that undermine that responsibility, NOT the poster.

James 4:12 English Standard Version

12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

That in no certain terms forbids those responsible men to keep god's command on keeping the church clean.

Titus 3:10, NIV: Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them.
