I will do my best to answer all Bible based Questions as well as some of the questions relating to the world that we live in. All answers will be based on intensive research of the scriptures. Also I will refer to other written commentaries of ones I feel present a good argument towards proving bible truths. Some who view my published answers have wondered what my "PURPOSE" is or my "REASON" is for being an expert in this section relating to Jehovah's Witnesses. This is one way for me to express my faith in God's word and his purposes. Another way I do this is on forums where God's word is discussed mainly by those who are or were involved with Jehovah's Witnesses. As I'm no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses who would be involved in the door to door work, this is one of the ways where I can have an active faith. There are many lost sheep out there who are looking for encouragement and searching for the truth. Many have Left or drifted away or were disfellowshiped, from the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses. And some were disfellowshiped for the same reason that I was. And yes many of the disfellowshiped are still sheep in Jehovah God's eyes. I do not claim myself to have an accurate knowledge of truth as yet as I'm continually studying and searching the scriptures so as to gain a more accurate knowledge of Bible truths. Also every time someone asks me a question, it helps me to get more truth, because inevitably I do more study of God's word to answer these questions.

Experience
I have been a student of the bible now for over 30 years. As well as being associated with Jehovah's witnesses for this length of time. To avoid confusion, yes I am a baptized Christian who was baptized by Jehovah's witnesses over 30 years ago under the old baptismal vows and not the ones from 1985 onwards. But I have been excommunicated just recently, for as I understand for not accepting that the "Faithful and Discreet Slave" have being appointed over all of Christ's belongings as yet. This is due to the fact that I do not believe that Jesus has come to inspect his household as yet. My strong desire is for the Truth to be made manifest and to this end I keep on searching the scriptures to enhance my existing Bible knowledge and to learn new truths. My fear is that there are unseen forces behind the scene of this world that is desperately trying to obscure the real truth of the Bible. Also there is a lot of information which is being presented to us from all types of media. Whether it be written, Audio, or visual media. The influence in our media to influence us in a certain way is very strong. As a result the people of this world are slowly be programmed to a certain way of thinking and also corrupted from moral values and principles as outlined in God's Word the Bible.

Education/Credentials
Experience with computer related research on the Internet. Have done a lot of intensive research into global affairs, Scientific research, Unexplained phenomena, also various religions as to what they believe.

Jehovah`s Witness - RESPECT FOR JESUS


Expert: FutureMan - 8/26/2009

Question
YOU PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE RESPECT FOR JESUS. PLEASE DONT CALL YOUR "BROTHER". PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF RESPECT, JESUS IS OUR LORD, CREATOR AND GOD.

HOW DO YOU GATHER COURAGE TO INSULT THE ALMIGHTY. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD!! WILL IT EVER LEARN TO DO THAT WHICH IS GOOD???

Answer
Hello Chaiwa, I don't know what I have said to offend you, but I apologize to you if you are offended.

When I write answers to questions that people ask me, it is certainly not my intent to offend anyone, but to answer as truthfully and accurately as I can respecting my own understanding of the scriptures.
If I don't actually have the answers myself I research other commentaries online that I feel might have a bearing on what I consider to be truth.

Now no one is under any obligation to accept what I say.

Now as respect your concern about the Christ being referred to as a "brother", I certainly don't refer to Jesus as being my brother, but I refer to him as my Lord and Savior and redeemer.
But Jesus does refer to his anointed disciples (Faithful anointed Christians) as his brothers.
Here is a scripture for you to consider.

(Matthew 25:34-40)[LITV]
(Quote)
31  But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
32 And before Him shall be gathered all the nations; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 And indeed He will set the sheep off His right, but the goats off the left hand.
34 Then the King will say to those on His right, Come, the blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
35 For I hungered, and you gave Me food to eat; I thirsted, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you took Me in;
36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.
37 Then the righteous will answer, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, and fed You; or thirsting, and gave You drink?
38 And when did we see You a stranger, and took You in; or naked, and clothed You?
39 And when did we see You sick, or in prison, and came to You?
40 And answering, the King will say to them, Truly I say to you, In so far as you did it to one of these, the least of My brothers, you did it to Me. (End of Quote)

Regards to you Chaiwa, from FutureMan
