Was Jesus hung on a cross?

You know the Watchtower claims that Christ wasn’t hung on a cross but on a pole. They throw rocks at all the other Christian religions for teaching that Jesus was crucified.

It is interesting that the “torture stake” theory was introduced not by Charles Taze Russell (founder of the Bible Students movement) but by none other than the trial lawyer, “Judge” Rutherford. Trial lawyers make their living by manipulating words. They can shade and change the meaning of words and testimony in order to change opinion or even question established fact.

Rutherford made his living doing this in court and he continued his assault when he seized control of the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society. He was a master at establishing doubt in the minds of his followers and he used it to great advantage while building a worldwide organization of followers who do nothing but parrot his failed and flawed theology.

The Watchtower has again introduced a “paper tiger”. Saying that Jesus wasn’t crucified has absolutely no basis in reality or the historical record. Yet some people fall for their flawed arguments because they fail to think critically for themselves.

The Watchtower Files

The NT says slew & hanged
source;
Acts 5:30 "Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree" Acts 10:39 "whom they slew and hanged on a tree" Acts 13:29 "they took him down from the tree" 1 Peter 2:24 "who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree" Galatians 3:13 "Christ... being made a curse upon us... Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree" also read Deuteronomy 21:22.

The 3 figures used to compile the Jesus image and story are: Yeshu son of Mary of 100bc who was Stoned(slew) and Hanged on Passover, the widows mite coin is a Jannaeus era coin hence passover sentence stoning hanging and widows mite and mother Mary come from that character..
The Galilean crucified for his tax revolt in 6bc time of King Herod is Yehuda and the River Jordan Christ in 35ad Pilate era was crucified for revolt against Rome. Romes church took to the Mary's son character so they could displace blame away from themselves and onto the elect that sentenced Yeshu in around 88bc.
