Russell’s Pyramid Tomb? (Blogspot Link)
Another video has been posted on YouTube (and on a site) about Charles Taze Russell.
Practically every sentence contains a falsehood, putting it politely.
The video starts by showing a scene of the pyramid monument that stands in the middle of the Watch Tower Society plot of the Rosement Cemetery in Pittsburg. The tone is set by the use of the word “weird” and the manner of presentation. The idea weirdness is focused on by the claim that this pyramid wins “first prize” as being the most weird site in Pennsylvania. Of course, many claim the Bible is weird also, and yes, what is revelealed through the Bible is indeed weird to the unregenerated, and even to the babes in Christ whose minds have not developed beyond the carnal reasoning. — 1 Corinthians 2:6,7,8,14; 3:1.
Strange Teaching of Pryramidology (CTR Wordpress Link)
This is in further reply to:
http://www.freewebs.com/wwwsoundnessofmindcom/charlestazerussell.htm
Under the subheading of “Some Strange Teachings of C. T. Russell” is listed the teaching of “pyramidology.” The statement is made that certain calculations based on the Great Pyramid were “integrated into the prophecies of Russell.”
Although Russell never used the word “pyramidology,” Russell did believe that the Great Pyramid corroborated the Bible. It has been said that truth is stranger than fiction; this, however, is because of limited perceptions of truth. Thus, unless one actually studies pyramidology, the idea of pyramidology may seem “strange,” just as many non-Christians believe that the idea of God sending a son to die for our sins is “strange,” if their minds have not been conditioned to accept this. Yet, the very fact that Jesus died for our sins is confirmed by the Great Pyramid.
Occultism (CTR Wordpress Link)
The claim is made that Russell “introduced occultism into his religion by teaching that the pyramids in Egypt are divine omens.”
Among other false assertions, this false statement appears on Paul Blizard’s site:
http://www.geocities.com/paulblizard/russell.html
The statements appearing on this site have been quoted over and over across many forums on the web, and although many have pointed out the falsity of the statements, the site owner continues to display such statements of deception, thus promoting such false claims. However, almost every sentence on the page states an untruth, putting the matter politely.
Pyramidology Vs. Spiritism (RLCTR Blogspot Link)
The claim is being made that pyramidology is a “a spiritistic religion,” and that assuming this to be true, therefore Charles Taze Russell was a spiritist. Those who make this claim evidently have little idea as to what true pyramidology is about, and are probably confusing true Biblical pyramidology with practices of witchcraft, occultism, “pyramid power,” transcentalism, occultic freemasonry, etc., that have of late become associated with the term “pyramidology.” True Biblical pyramidology has nothing to do with such practices of spiritism.
The Alleged “Clear” Occultism of 1914
A Youtube video has been given to us as alleged evidence in support of the alleged allegation that was a freemason. The video is directed toward “Jehovah’s Witnesses.” Reference is made to one the JWs books, and a statement concerning Christ’s alleged return in 1914. Russell, of course, did not believe that Christ would return in 1914, but rather than he had returned in 1874.
We are also aware of the claim made in the JW publications that Christ’s return in 1914 had been proclaimed by “Jehovah’s Witnesses” for many years before 1914. Since there were no “Jehovah’s Witnesses” before 1914, and since we do not know of anyone at all who, before 1914, was proclaiming Christ was to return in 1914, the claim is false on two counts.
Reply to: “Charles Taze Russell founder of Jehovah’s Witnesses was a Mason”
This is in reply to a video that appears on YouTube entitled “Charles Taze Russell founder of Jehovah’s Witnesses was a Mason”. Our replies on YouTube never seem to appear, so we are responding here.
We have already shown many times that Russell was not the founder of Jehovah’s Witnesses, nor did he ever believe in such an authoritarian organization. Although the video is directed toward “Jehovah’s Witnesses,” Russell himself was never a member of that organization, nor were his teachings the same as that organization.

Is Charles Taze Russell’s tomb a pyramid?
Masonic Symbols?
This is in response to a site which, although directed at the JWs, presents mostly misinformation concerning Russell (who was never associated with the JW organization). The page is filled with deceptive graphical displays with sentences designed to place in the mind of the reader evil thoughts concerning Russell. Practically every sentence on the page contains deceptive falsehoods. In effect, the methods employed on the site imitate Satan.

Russell and the Great Pyramid
As a corroboration of the Bible, Charles Taze Russell made a few references to the Great Pyramid of Egypt. It was his belief that Yahweh (Jehovah) had this pyramid built, and that the passages therein correspond to various features of the divine plan as revealed in the Bible. Many have sought to misrepresent his use of the pyramid in this manner, and thus, we address some of the misconceptions being spread about this matter.
We will make some quotes from various sites on the web concerning Russell and the Great Pyramid, and show how these sites are misrepresenting Russell.
