Book Review: A BRIEF CRITIQUE OF THE WATCHTOWER BY A NOTED APOLOGIST
Summary: 5 Stars
Robert M. Bowman is director of research of the Atlanta Christian Apologetics Project, and author of books such as Understanding Jehovah's Witnesses: Why They Read the Bible the Way They Do, 20 Compelling Evidences That God Exists: Discover Why Believing In God Makes so Much Sense, Faith Has Its Reasons: Integrative Approaches to Defending the Christian Faith, etc.
He writes in the Preface to this 1995 booklet, "This is an introductory booklet on Jehovah's Witnesses. It is therefore written for persons who want to understand the distinctive beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses and why those beliefs are rejected by orthodox Christians. Also, whenever possible, I have gone into depth on questions that have not been adequately addressed in Christian literature which seeks to respond to the Witnesses. I have tried to refine the answers to Watchtower arguments that I and other Christians have used for years.... Because this book is limited in length, it focuses on analyzing and refuting the Witnesses' primary doctrinal system---their views on God, Christ, salvation, and the future."
Here are some quotations from the booklet:
"Since Nathan Knorr's presidency] The Society now published its books anonymously (previously the books had carried either Russell's or Rutherford's name)." (Pg. 11)
"Its growth in the United States has been more modest, rising from about 327,000 in 1965 to 946,000 in 1994... In 1965 about 3 out of 10 Jehovah's Witnesses lived in the United States; in 1994 only about 2 out of 10 did so." (Pg. 14)
"Jehovah's Witnesses are right in asserting that 'Hades,' the word translated 'hell' in the King James Version, here (Acts 2:27) does not refer to a place of everlasting punishment... The important point here is that we may agree that 'Hades' does not refer to a place of eternal punishment while continuing to insist that the Bible teaches that such eternal punishment awaits the wicked." (Pg. 35)
