AboutBrenda 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.

The Bible & Christ's teachings give us the authority to think for ourselves.
"It is wrong to critisise the men Jehovah appointed" The only person appointed in the bible as to position is Jesus Christ. Do whatever it is that gives you peace inside. There is nothing wrong with lacking faith in a manmade organization... There are tons of clergymen out there today who claim to be solely appointed by God. Jehovah's Witnesses do not have the monopoly on that. Their organization is just that ..."A group of men who sit around a table and place votes on doctrine". Many religions out there are overseen by a group of men. Jesus Christ is our leader. That was the reason for his sacrifice. You can pray directly to Jehovah through him. You are to be commended. Have more faith in yourself and God's holy spirit.
