Excerpt from All About One Russell

This is a serious accusation to make against any man, but it can be fully proven.

We will briefly pass over the question as to how he came by his title of Pastor, seeing that in this country any congregation may so desig nate any one or more of its members, and that this recognition gives such person or persons a legal standing as head of the assembly. More over anyone may designate himself Pastor, whether others so address him or not. But in either case not much weight is usually given to such title, when so obtained, by the churches generally, for the reason that all accredited bodies of Christians have methods of recognizing and setting apart ministers, and are so freely disposed to acknowledge merit, that any worthy candidate is sent forth to his work with an en dorsement that gains recognition from nearly all other denominations in Protestantism. Pas tor Russell has no such endorsement. We have never heard it hinted that he ever passed an examination by, or was ever endorsed by any body of ministers, or company of Christians, ex cept those whom he has succeeded in gathering about him as believers in his own peculiar views.
