Jehovah's Witnesses. Pyramids - Christian or pagan?

If you pick up a book with a pyramid on the cover, would you expect the contents to be Christian or pagan?


If they're trying to corroborate the Biblical date for Armageddon from measuring a pyramid, would you think it is a Christian thing to do and that God approves, or pagan to be frowned on?


Do you think God used the pyramids as his stone witness, and encoded Bible prophecies in its measurements. Or more likely to be Satans bible?


Or is it that it used to be ok, but new light subsequently declared it wrong. If so, what changed about the pyramid to make these differences?

Watchtower 1922 June 15 p.187


In the passages of the Great Pyramid of Gizeh the agreement of one or two measurements with the present-truth chronology might seem accidental, but the correspondency of dozens of measurements proves that the same God designed both pyramid and plan...





Watchtower 1925 May 15 p.148


The great Pyramid of Egypt, standing as a silent and inanimated witness of the Lord, is a messenger; and its testimony speaks with great eloquence concerning the divine plan...





Watchtower 1928 November 15 p.344


It is more reasonable to conclude that the great pyramid of Gizeh, as well as the other pyramids thereabout, also the sphinx, were built by the rulers of Egypt and under the directions of Satan the Devil... Then Satan put his knowledge in dead stone, which may be called Satans' Bible, and not God's stone witness...|||The Egyptian pyramids are older than the Judeo/Christian god concept. It's not possible that the pyramids have anything to do with either Judaism or Christianity. Jehovah's Nutcases are just an American scam religion like the Mormons and Scientology.|||RUSSELL AND THE PYRAMIDS





Jehovah's Witnesses do not stand by teachings when it is revealed those teachings are wrong. We are a progressive organisation and do not heisitate to change continuously (grow) as our knowledge of truth increases.





"For some 35 years Pastor Russell thought that the Great pyramid of Gizeh was God's great stone witnesses corroborating biblical time periods (Isaiah 19:19) but Jehovah's Witnesses have abandoned the idea that an Egyptian pyramid has anything to do with true worship" -- see Watchtower Nov 15th %26amp; Dec 1st 1929





Watchtower 1928 November 15 p.344 "It is more reasonable to conclude that the great pyramid of Gizeh, as well as the other pyramids thereabout, also the sphinx, were built by the rulers of Egypt and under the directions of Satan the Devil."





For Jehovah's Witnesses the light of biblical understanding is constantly increasing and Brother Russell no doubt would have celebrated this fact - see Prov 4:18

Jehovah's Witnesses have had God's word ,the Bible, brought into greater light. And, the things you speak of have been seen, in greater light, as not having to do with the harvest work-harvesting souls for eternal life; Matthew chapter 13.





Yet, you can ask the Church's of Christendom, and you will find that Santa Clause still exists with their church members. Why? Or, you can go to almost any church belonging to Babylon the Great and get the teaching that the soul is immortal. However, more than once the Bible says a soul can die; Ezekiel 18:4.





Jesus Christ made an inspection of his temple, and has cleansed out the things that are pagan. Jehovah's Witnesses have also removed things offensive to Jehovah God.|||ha!! i love how all your watchtower references are from the '20s! awesome job on keep modern!





anyway, the pyramids were constructed by an ancient pagan civilization. we all know that. they were actually built before Jesus walked the earth, and therefore before Christianity was even established.





and if i picked up a book with a pyramid on the cover i would expect it to be a historical textbook, not religious
