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.

Jehovah`s Witness - !st John 9-11


Expert: Brenda Martin - 11/5/2009

Question
Why are these scriptures used for those who are disfellowshipped due to weakness, adultry,disassociation,drunkeness,when the scriptures are clearly referring to the anti-christ? These scriptures are used to blanket everyone who's disfellowshipped.

Answer
No-one is disfellowshipped for "weakness, adultery or drunkenness" people are only disfellowshipped when they say; they are not sorry for what they have done & intend to carry on with their wrong course.

As for disassociation, no-one needs to disfellowship them, as they have wrote a letter to the elders saying; "they no longer want to be called one of JW's" in affect they disfellowship themselves, their choice.

which chapter of John? as theres no verse 11 in 1 John c.1 were you meaning another verse?

all the best
Brenda
