It would interest you to know that Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) originated as a branch of the Bible Student movement, which developed in the United States in the 1870s among followers of Christian Restorationist minister, Charles Taze Russell. Bible Student missionaries were sent to England in 1881 and the first overseas branch was opened in London in 1900. The group took on the name International Bible Students Association, and by 1914 it was also active in Canada, Germany, Australia and other countries. However, the movement split into several rival organizations after Russell's death in 1916, with one led by Russell's successor, Joseph "Judge" Rutherford, retaining control of both his magazine, The Watch Tower, and his legal and publishing corporation, the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania. Under Rutherford's direction, the International Bible Students Association introduced significant doctrinal changes that resulted in many long-term members...

In the New Testament, the term "church," also sometimes translated as "assembly," comes from the Greek word EKKLESIA which means the "called out." The word was used by the Greeks to describe the assembling or gathering of citizens who were called out to meet together for public hearings. The heralds would walk through the streets and literally call for people to come out from what they were doing to gather for public business. In the scriptures EKKLESIA refers to those whom Christ has "called out" from the world to be His own, and to assemble together in His name. The primary meaning of the church is used in a universal sense, referring to all Christian believers everywhere. Irrespective of denominational or doctrinal differences, all persons who have genuinely placed their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord are members of His church, also called the body of Christ, over which Christ is the head (Eph. 1:22-23).  Secondarily, the...

B. Joshua, and Chris Oyakhilome, Christ Embassy founder, accusing them of being magicians. Bishop Kayode, a renowned magician, said the duo, his colleagues in the ministry, use their eyes with demonic powers in them to superimpose their thoughts into people. In a recent interview with FLIP TV, he said, “What I see Temitope Joshua do from my own magic experience is what we call mesmerism. It is also called hypnotism.” He claimed that while T. B. Joshua uses Kabballah magic to hypnotize his congregation and the general public over his miracles, Chris Oyakhilome’s association with Joshua makes him a suspect. Taking on Oyakhilome, Kayode said, “I used to believe Oyakhilome before. That ended the day I saw him and Jos...
