This is the first thread I've started here. I think I've got my signature right and all.
Three of my grandparents were followers of
Charles Taze Russell (proto-JWs). I was doing some research into that cult, and I was stunned when I found
Russell's chart on the "times."
Now. Help me out here. Are there ANY differences between Russell's chart and any of the myriad ones I saw enlarged and plastered on dispie church hallways as I was growing up (pick one)? I do understand that Russell was an Arian and did not believe in Christ's deity, and that's
crucial. But in trying to understand my grandparents attraction to this cult, I was a little dismayed that it might have been the same attraction the rest of my family has had toward dispensationalism.
Thanks.
