The group was known as the “Russellites” until 1931 when, due to a split in the organization, it was renamed the “Jehovah’s Witnesses.” The group from which it split became known as the “Bible students.”
Kikundi kilijulikana kama “Warussell” hadi mwaka wa 1931 wakati, kwa sababu ya kugagwanyika wa utaratibu, likatiwa “Mashahidi wa Yehova.” Kikundi ambacho walitoka kikaitwa “wanafunzi wa Bibilia.”
