As I mentioned last time, Don Cameron 1 , a one-time Jehovah's Witness (JW) elder, has tabled 48 doctrines which the Watchtower Society (WtS) was teaching from 1876 to 1919 but now no longer teaches. The WtS believes now that Jesus Christ returned invisibly in 1914 and began inspecting the societies, organisations and religions of the world according to various criteria. Four criteria were to be applied to the teachings of these organisations according to the JW historian of the WtS, Frederick Franz, in Jehovah's Witnesses: Proclaimers of God's Kingdom ( Proclaimers ) (1993) * (free pdf download from the Internet) p. 47 : a) teaching must be correct b) teaching must be at the proper time c) teaching must be found in the Scriptures d) teaching must be rejected if found to be based on tradition (as summarised by Cameron). We can't cover all the 48 beliefs cited by Cameron but I will cover 3 of them in some detail below and then list others below these below.
