Drawing on primary and secondary source material from internal and external sources, the author traces the history of the International Bible Students Association, popularly known as Jehovah’s Witnesses, in Britain, from 1881 to the present. The work of colporteurs led to the establishment of early congregations (“ecclesias”) and a branch office in London. The release of the audio-visual production entitled The Photo-Drama of Creation had an important role in bringing the Bible Student movement into prominence. Controversies shortly arose within the London congregation, which were exacerbated by intervention by Paul S. L. Johnson from the Brooklyn headquarters. The transition of leadership to Joseph Franklin Rutherford, following Charles Taze Russell’s death in 1916, caused the organization to change from the federation of independent congregations to a unified Society. Discussion is given to the effects of the two World Wars, the attempts of Bible Students to gain exemption from conscription through legal channels, and the penalties incurred by the conscientious objectors. Jehovah’s Witnesses have continued to expand their activities, through house-to-house visiting which became expected of all members, through expansion of premises, and through increased public visibility. It is concluded that Jehovah’s Witnesses do not allow their principles to be shaped by popular attitudes and values, believing that the world is currently governed by Satan rather than Jehovah.
作者利用来自内部和外部的第一手和第二手资料，追溯了国际圣经学生协会(俗称耶和华见证人)从1881年到现在在英国的历史。记者的工作促成了早期教会(“教会”)的建立，并在伦敦设立了一个分支机构。视听作品《创造的摄影戏剧》的发行，在使圣经学生运动得到重视方面发挥了重要作用。不久，伦敦教会内部就出现了争议，布鲁克林总部的保罗·s·l·约翰逊(Paul S. L. Johnson)的干预加剧了争议。1916年，查尔斯·泰泽·罗素去世后，约瑟夫·富兰克林·卢瑟福接替了教会的领导权，导致该组织从独立的教会联盟转变为一个统一的协会。讨论了两次世界大战的影响，圣经学生试图通过法律渠道获得兵役豁免，以及良心拒服兵役者所受到的惩罚。耶和华见证人继续扩大其活动，通过挨家挨户的访问(这是所有成员所期望的)，通过扩大房舍和通过提高公众知名度。结论是，耶和华见证人不允许他们的原则受到大众态度和价值观的影响，认为目前世界是由撒旦而不是耶和华统治的。
