About Brenda Martin
Expertise
I have been one of Jehovah`s Witneses now for over 30 years, in those years I have brought up 4 children, teaching each of them the bible.Being one of Jehovah`s Witnesses has helped me cope with my Epilepsy and bring up a daughter with learning difficulties.I have conducted bible studies with people from nearly every denomination i.e. Muslim. Having used the bible all these years to answer peoples questions, I feel I am qualified to give any answer regarding Jehovah`s Witnesses and the bible.
Experience
My experience has been one of attending bible lectures 5 times a week,taking part in these lectures in front of an audience and being with thousands of J.W. at conventions where I have seen the bible at work in peoples lives.It is truly a miracle when you see thousands of people meeting together and not one policeman needed, and not even a piece of litter in sight.It is like another world.

Expert: Brenda Martin - 10/29/2009
Question
saw an earlier response you made on the Divine name usage..Im just curious "how many times did Jesus call his Father Jehovah" and the same goes for the apostles?
Answer
About 40 times the name appears in Luke
Roughly 20 in Matthew
11 in Mark
9 in John
the 4 gospels written about Jesus.
"The oldest fragments of the Greek Septuagint (New Testament) contain the divine name in its Hebrew form, Dr. P. Kahle says: “We now know that the Greek Bible text [the Septuagint] contained the Tetragrammaton (God's name) written with Hebrew or Greek letters was retained in such MSS [manuscripts]"
all the best
Brenda
