This book examines the historic tensions between Jehovah’s Witnesses and government authorities, civic organisations, established churches and the broader public. Witnesses originated in the 1870s as small, loose-knit groups calling themselves Bible Students. Today, there are some eight million Witnesses worldwide, all actively engaged in evangelism under the direction of the Watch Tower Society. The author analyses issues that have brought them global visibility and even notoriety, including political neutrality, public ministry, blood transfusion, and anti-ecumenism. It also explores anti-Witness discourse, from media portrayals of the community as marginal and exotic to the anti-cult movement.  Focusing on varied historical, ideological and national contexts, the book argues that Witnesses have had a defining influence on conceptions of religious tolerance in the modern world.

Since the end of World War II, leaders of the Jehovah's Witness movement in both Germany and elsewhere have steadfastly argued that Witnesses were united in their opposition to Nazism and did not collude with the Third Reich. Documents have been uncovered, however, that prove otherwise. Using materials from Witness archives, the U.S. State Department, Nazi files, and other sources, M. James Penton demonstrates that while many ordinary German Witnesses were brave in their opposition to Nazism, their leaders were quite prepared to support the Hitler government.Penton begins his study with a close reading of the "Declaration of Facts" released by the Witnesses at a Berlin convention in June 1933. Witness leaders have called the document a protest against Nazi persecution, however closer examination shows it contained bitter attacks on Great Britain and the United States - jointly referred to as "the greatest and most oppressive empire on earth" - the League of Nations, big business, and above all, Jews, who are referred to as "the representatives of Satan the Devil."It was later, in 1933 - when the Nazis would not accept Witness blandishments- that leader J.F. Rutherford called on Witnesses to seek martyrdom by carrying on a campaign of passive resistance. Many ultimately died in prisons and concentration camps, and postwar Witness leaders have attempted to use this fact to assert that Jehovah's Witnesses stood consistently against Nazism.Drawing on his own Witness background and years of research on Witness history, Penton separates fact from fiction during this dark period.

Dr. Walter Martin is the author of the bestseller, The Kingdom of the Cults, which has been the major handbook on the subject for almost twenty years. He presents here a readable and understandable overview of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, more commonly known as Jehovah's Witnesses.From its beginning in the 1880's to a current world-wide membership of over one million, the flood of J.W. literature and missionaries presents a challenge for biblical Christianity wherever the true Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached.The author of this helpful little booklet traces the ancestry of Jehovah's Witnesses back to the fourth-century Arians who believed that Jesus Christ was merely the first and greatest of God's creation. Martin then presents the main J.W. teachings and carefully compares them with Scripture. You will find further information on this subject in Dr. Martin's major work on the subject, Jehovah of the Watch Tower.Other booklets by Walter Martin:Christian ScienceHerbert W. ArmstrongMormonism

Paperback: 192 pages Publisher: Bethany House Pub; Ninth Printing edition (September 1981) Language: English

The Jehovah's Witnesses endured intense persecution under the Nazi regime, from 1933 to 1945. Unlike the Jews and others persecuted and killed by virtue of their birth, Jehovah's Witnesses had the opportunity to escape persecution and personal harm by renouncing their religious beliefs. The vast majority refused and throughout their struggle, continued to meet, preach, and distribute literature. In the face of torture, maltreatment in concentration camps, and sometimes execution, this unique group won the respect of many contemporaries. Up until now, little has been known of their particular persecution.
