Our Lord's Return
For anyone researching the history of Jehovah's Witnesses doctrinal evolution. This a an enlarged replica reprint of a 64 page WATCHTOWER booklet printed in 1929. The Scriptural proof is that the second presence of the Lord Jesus Christ began in 1874 A.D. This proof is specifically set out in the booklet entitled Our Lord's Return. - PROPHECY by J. F. Rutherford(book, A(c)1929)
Face the Facts and Learn the Only One Way of Escape
"Face the Facts" and "Fill the Earth" were the titles of two public addresses delivered in 1938 by J. F. Rutherford, who was then President of the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society. The speeches were printed in booklet form later that year. On the second page of that booklet Judge Rutherford claims his message is from Almighty God. These lectures were described years later by the WTB&TS as "fearless, forthright," "powerful" and "striking" messages. This enlarged replica reprint of the original booklet can be examined in the light of recorded history to see if these powerful striking speeches were not also something else: completely inaccurate and false.

Millions Now Living Will Never Die!
A public talk titled "The World Has Ended; Millions Now Living May Never Die" was first delivered on February 24, 1918 in Los Angeles, California. Five weeks later, on March 31, 1918 the title was changed to indicate absolute certainty: "The World Has Ended; Millions Now Living Will Never Die." The public talk continued to be delivered under that same title until 1925. The material was published as this book in 1920. This book may be of interest to students of human psychology and students of religious movements, particularly millennialist apocalyptic, "prophetic" religious movements. It is now republished in a larger, easy-to-read format for purposes of research, scholarship, teaching, news reporting, commentary or criticism. With the exception of the rear cover, every page is a photographically enlarged duplicate of the original publication. Once hard to find, this reprinting makes this historic book available at a reasonable price.
Historical Dictionary of Jehovah's Witnesses
Originating from a small group of Bible students who met under Charles Taze Russell’s leadership and grew into an international Society, to which the second leader Joseph Franklin Rutherford and gave the name ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses’. Two World Wars shaped Watch Tower attitudes to civil government, armed conflict, and medical innovations such as blood transfusion, as well as to mainstream churches. The twenty-first century has seen some important changes in the Watch Tower organization, and coverage is given to changes in organizational structure, its use of the World Wide Web, and its major relocation from Brooklyn to Warwick. This updated second edition of Historical Dictionary of Jehovah's Witnesses contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on key concepts, themes, and people relating to Jehovah’s Witnesses. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Jehovah's Witnesses.

A Great Battle in the Ecclesiastical Heavens
Shortly before Charles Russell died, the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society was caught up in a web of criticism regarding both his personal life and his professional one as a spiritual leader. He turned to his friend and attorney, Joseph Rutherford to assist him in refuting these allegations.Among the accusations were that Pastor Russell was using the money donated to the organization for his personal use, of being a divorced man, of not paying his wife alimony, of charging his followers huge rates for what was termed Miracle Wheat. The newspapers also accused him of being a pedophile with regards to a young orphan girl that came into the care of he and his wife, as well as a myriad of other charges. Rutherford realized that in order to protect the organization and to assure its future growth he would have to defend Pastor Russell's reputation against these charges and in this book, he does so in an admirable way.
How to Escape from Jehovah's Witnesses
Jehovah's Witnesses number into the millions globally and are well known for their public evangelism about God's kingdom. But beneath the facade of brotherly love and organizational unity lies a captive organization in which doubts are stifled and dissent is ruthlessly crushed. Once a Witness stops believing, they face being ostracized as a loathed "mentally diseased" apostate. They must navigate a labyrinth of obstacles and dilemmas due to the organization's cruel policy of shunning former members. Lloyd Evans is a well known ex-Witness writer and activist, and in his second book he draws on his firsthand, insider knowledge as a former elder to guide would-be escapees through the minefield ...
