Who is Jehovah's witnesses founding father?

The term founding father is a term that generally means " A man who founds or establishes something" The Founding father of Jehovah's Witnesses according to this definition therefore would be Jesus since he is the "chief cornerstone" or founder of their beliefs. The modern day history of Jehovah's Witnesses started at the turn of the last century with a man called Charles Taze Russell and a group of bible students (as Jehovah's Witnesses were for some time known) setting up a bible study group in an attempt to return to the teachings of Jesus as outlined in scripture free from pagan dogman.


People think and say Russelites are Jehovah's Witnesses but they are not they are a sect of Jehovah's Witnesses the floor plan is like Jehovah's Witnesses but they knocked down a couple walls?

Charles Russell founded the Watchtower magazine and the Watchtower Society, a legal entity used by Jehovah's Witnesses. He did not found Jehovah's Witnesses, as Jehovah has had his Witnesses since the time of Abel. Jesus is the founder of Christianity, at which point in time all of Jehovah's faithful Witnesses who prior to this had been Jewish, began to include people of all nationalities in the newly established Christian Congregation. Mistakenly, a number of people thought the Bible Students, as Jehovah's Witnesses were known back then, were followers of Pastor Russell. Actually, this was not the case; we follow no human. Our leader or head is Jesus Christ. Because of this erroneous belief, as well as in attempts to discredit the fact that we were (and are) practicing Christians serving Jehovah under the headship of his Son Jesus Christ, they branded us with this apellation, which some still resort to down to this day. Additionally Yes the russelites is what many people called the Bible students at that time but as stated before it was not their actual name. Jehovah's Witnesses never did claim to be called by such a name because they knew who they were following even though Brother Russell was of major importance, he was not their leader, only the most high Jehovah God and Jesus Christ are. The term "Russelites" was never a name that Jehovah's Witnesses or the Bible Students officially adopted or embraced. It also was not ever endorced by Charles Russel himself. It was a term coined by some on the outside of the organization.

Why are Jehovah's Witnesses buried with a pyramid tombstone?

As a general rule they are not. The only Jehovah's Witness I am aware of that had a pyramid tombstone was the President of the Watchtower Society and founder Charles Taze Russell. He believed that the Great Pyramid of Giza was designed and provided by Jehovah God to assist in making predictions of when God's Kingdom would arrive. See links below
