It is clear that Michael Jackson had a strong connection to God that was instilled in him from an early age due to his mother's deep commitment to the Jehovah's Witness faith.
Throughout his incredible fame and success he lived by the conventions and teachings of the Christian denomination, and sort to appease his religion's elders. However, Michael Jackson and his church often butt heads when it came to his performance style, celebrity and musical output. This ultimately led to them making a crippling ultimatum with the pop superstar, choose your career or God and your faith.
A decision Michael found unbearable to make, and left him guilt-ridden and devastated for many years to come.

​@the detail. Hi, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Your VIDEOS, However, I'm a Witness myself and I have to say There are a lot of inaccuracies in this particular video That are not to the same standard of quality and accuracy as usual. Michael was never "Controlled " or "Forced" out of being a Jehovah's Witness, he CHOSE TO LEAVE temporarily. Jehovah's Witnesses don't try to "Control" anyone, to do so would be unscriptual Only God has the right to tell us what to do And he is the one we all ultimately answer to. Roman's 14:12 "So, then, each of us will render an account for himself to God" One thing many people do not know is that michael actually returned to being a Jehovah's Witness in his later years before his death in the 2000s That's why his cousin Wendell who was an elder was able to give a Smaller memorial ceremony before the public one And why he said he Was glad His life was Connected with Jehovah's Because it meant the resurrection hope which Michael believed in also. Michael certainly never thought they were "Controlling" or "forcing " If You notice, Michael never spoke bad about his experience of being one of Jehovah's Witnesses even in his time before he returned, In fact he only spoke positive about it in all of his interviews, Like the ones where he gave a speech of oxford university, or with Maurie povich, or Geraldo Rivera, or in the 2001 TV Guide magazine Where he talks about his current activity As being one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Lastly, don't forget Michael wanted and DID( when he was alive ) raise his children as Jehovah's Witnesses. Do you really think a parent as loving and gentle as MICHAEL JACKSON who Ironically, Had arguably THE MOST Domineering, controlling, Forceful, Parent imaginable in Joe Jackson Would return to and want HIS CHILDREN to be raised in a religion if it were really as "Controlling" and "Forceful" As some people with an Innaccurate knowledge might say?

YOU may not like Jehovah God's rules and having to obey them, And YOU May not Love God enough to OBEY ALL his commands (1 John 5:3 For this is what the love of God means, that we observe his commandments; and yet his commandments are not burdensome. BUT That doesn't mean everyone else has to be rebellious and disobedient like YOU Or that they have to encourage or Applaud your bad behavior. REAL Christians obey ALL God's commands INCLUDING the difficult ones..... ( Staying away from unrepentant wrongdoers even if family members.) 1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I am writing you to stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man.

Michael was a spiritual person and was very open minded and believed that all paths of faith had some truths within it which are the reason why he explored and learned from other paths as well later in his life while still having faith in The Creator, Michael didn't liked to be told what to do and he had his reasons to these decisions that he made.

i agree with him exploring other paths of faith which led him to his trusted rabbi Shmuley. I also agree with "Michael didn't like to be told what to do" especially when the rabbi Shmuley told him to stop thinking of himself as the messiah to all these kids, also to get off the drugs - MJ didn't like either piece of advice and had the rabbi abruptly cut out of his life.

As a believer of Christ and huge Michael Jackson fan the biggest thing I struggle with is understanding we cannot ‘idolize’ people that are not Jesus. To me Michael is my hero and I am fascinated by so many things he did and his life but I have to separate that from the adulation I have in my spiritual life and to God.

I always wonder why Jesus gets an exception when he’s no more or less of human being. I was told not to idolize Mike growing up. But I’m still holding tight that Mike was as close to Jesus in terms of his impact overall on the world. But a Christ believer would consider this bad. That’s idolizing Jesus imo Vs seeing his true purpose. Every human has their purpose, including Jesus. He did what so many others have been brought on this earth to do. I don’t see him above anyone else. So to me Mike is right up there with him.

What you can do is to pray for Michael's children and family and even your fellow fans. We are instructed to love one another, so the love you feel for others is a natural outpouring of the Love you are constantly partaking of via the Holy Spirit. You do not have to put "Jesus first," because He is more than first. He is *central.* And so therefore that love will be expressed towards others, just as God intended. Yes, MJ is a hero, a fascinating man and entertainer. So put your love for him to good use by praying for those he was closest to. Peace to you!

Well, just remember that you must keep the sabbath, break bread and receieve it as the body of Christ, be baptized and so on. Btw, in the Acts of the Apostles you can see that the Church of Christ is institutionalized headed by Peter and James sending apostles to spread the Gospel. They also had fixed ceremonies which have been kept to this day in the Orthodox and Catholic Churches. Jesus also said to His disciples "take the holy spirit. He will teach you everything". Jesus also said that He didnt teach His students everything, only what they needed to know for the time being. Thats why He sent the Holy Spirit who is supposed to lead us and teach us everything. Which means the Bible is not enough and we were given the holy spirit to be able to learn more. Nevertheless we have to keep an eye out for false prophets.

​@@darylallmanfulIt's not a sin to be an entertainer. Michael was doing both for years. The problems came after thriller. Where people began to worship Michael literally like a god. And also the zombie music video. He did get talk to but I believe Michael left. You can't get expelled. Dis fellowship is you can't do field service if you aren't in Harmony with what you are preaching. Michael could got the privileges back if he wanted to. He just felt it better to leave. I believe Michael always kept the same belief. You see it with his love for the animals, his charity work and also making his house a paradise on earth. All things the witnesses preach about the world being at peace one day. I do believe its hard to be an artist and a jw because we wanna express fully without limit. And jw is a narrow path and a hard one to take.

YES! Thedetail getting into that nitty-gritty. Michael's spiritual beliefs underpin his message & legacy to the world. But there was ALWAYS a conflict between Michael Jackson the Superstar & Michael Jackson the Devout. I'm honestly surprised that the Jackson 5 wasn't shut down from the outset by the Jehovah's Witnesses. That circle would NEVER be squared & after Thriller something was gonna have to give. But his Jehovah's Witness upbringing never left him even if he studied other belief systems & incorporated them into his own. This is probably why he moved like moved as a Superstar. His Entertainment platform WAS his Ministry. The Duality of Michael Jackson in all kinds of ways including this one between Showbiz & Church is why he is profound of an artist & a human being. It's part of what makes him so endlessly fascinating.

I was a JW for most of my life. What you are saying is not always true. They give people ultimatums a lot. They did not know what to do with Jackson because they never dealt with that kind of fame. He was bigger than that entire religion and they hated that. They hassled him nonstop. They are not caring people, they only care about people who follow their agenda. They break up families and shun people who grow up and disagree with their teachings. Kids are cut off from parents, parents are cut off from their kids, and some grandparents never met their grandchildren, it's a cruel faith. People are instructed to not associate with nonbelievers, and only with the community of Witnesses, but one who leaves the Faith is suddenly cut off from the only people they know. JWs are discouraged from pursuing higher education, they settle for low-paying jobs and do not plan for the future, because they are taught the end of the world as we know it is near. They have been saying that for over a hundred years. People become old and unprepared for their senior years. Jehovah's Witness believe that their “loving” God Jehovah is going to destroy most of the humans on the planet, rewarding the Earth to Jehovah's Witnesses. If you want to ruin your relationship with your family. If you want to cut off your association with the people you love. If you want to worship a God that is like Adolf Hitler on steroids, go ahead and contact the person above for a home Bible study. Understand ahead of time that they only use their own version of the Bible, it's a version that is edited and tailored to fit their teachings, and since they change their teaching every time it's proven wrong, they revise their Bible every few decades. All facts my friends. The suicide rate of the people who have been cut off from their families is astronomical, the cases of depression are out of control, and love is not treating family as if they are dead. This is a region led by men who have zero connection with a higher source, their mission is to control people, to fulfill their agenda. On top of all of that, they have a horrible record of dealing with pedophiles. They rarely turn them in and try to handle it “in-house” to not soil their reputation (or bring reproach on Jehovah) hence pedophiles offend over and over and over again. Members have no idea how much of their donated money goes to paying off lawsuits and hush money. If you are a fan of controlling cults, this may be for you. The definition of a cult is an organization that controls the INFORMATION its members can access, the BEHAVIOR of its members, the THOUGHTS its members can entertain, and the EMOTIONS its members express. That is a Grade-A certified, premium CULT. The root of all evil is separation and disunity. God, the real God is nothing but love and oneness. Sadly it is a religion full of very nice, yet misguided people who follow leaders who they call their Governing Body who are pure evil. ✌️🏾

I, as a Christian, love Michael, but I don't idolize him. He was a very unique person, and he loved Jehova God, Jesus, and the humans. He even spoke about his beliefs as much as he could in his situation. But who are we to judge him..that's NOT our job. The elders in his congregation did, in my opinion, try to protect the others. Which was a difficult thing, because there was never a cause like that before. Michael was misunderstood in many ways. But Jehova God knows his children and will resurrect them when the time comes. That is here on earth, which will be a paradise then.

Me as a former member of Jehovah's Witness organization, I can totally relate with Michael in this case. I still pray to Jehovah God each day and only come to the Memorial of Christ. I'm currently participating in the school band, which is something I would be prohibited from, though I didn't recieve much pressure since I was still in middle school, though I was told to be careful. When it comes to holidays, I treat it like it's a normal day just like what Michael considers about holidays. Especially in our local Winter Concert performances, there may be Christmas content in a piece but I don't really label it Christmas, but rather a work of art. Just like I do in all holiday music, despite what it really intends to glorify. When it comes to patriotic situations, like performing the Star-Spangled Banner in Friday Night Football games, I still play not through dedication to it's message, but as a catchy, fun and enjoyable piece of music to play. In Birthday celebrations, I would most likely go only because it's a great time to spend with friends and have fun playing games and everything. I never wish anyone a happy birthday because that's something you should be proud of everyday. The same with Mother's/Father's Day because you should always honor your parents everyday. My whole point is that I am basically still a Jehovah's Witness in a more personal way, as a devoted Christian, without the pressure of others trying to tell me how to serve God.

Remember 911 ,he was in N.Y.C. doing that time and he thought "Jehovah's day" had arrived the start. He was still studying never gave up ,so as I said you wrong.

Which is why people call it a cult (something I agree with).Thank God MJ, The Jackson 5 and Janet had Joseph, and didn’t listen to the elders, imagine if they did. Religious indoctrination makes you to ignore your intuition and abandon critical thought through fear, in their case Armageddon.

He always tried to understand other religions and was tolerant regarding other belief systems.

Jehovah's Witnesses see the world as Jesus saw it, alienated from God. And he taught and warned his apostles as much. Why? Because the world is under the influence and control of the Devil Satan. '' Adulteresses, {Those having immoral, sinful, idolatrous, and wicked conduct with Satan the Devil}, do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world is constituting himself an enemy of {Jehovah} God? 1John 5:19; James 4:4, NWT. Jesus revealed who is the true ruler of this world right now. John 12:31;14:30;16:11. Michael knew this. It's one of the first truths we are taught and made aware of. All true Christians in Jesus' time formed an alliance and a spiritual fortification against the things in the world. And since Jesus had conquered the world and was victorious over it, the spoils of war were his to give to his followers, only the things necessary to live and its means of life. The rest, is preserved for destruction in the end. Micael was also torn between worshiping God and the demons. ''You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of the demons; You cannot be partaking of the table of Jehovah and the table of the demons. Or are we inciting Jehovah to jealousy? We are not stronger than he is are we? 1Cor. 10:21 NWT. However, Michael has placed himself in a very unfavorable position with God. Choosing to obey and drink of the cup of the demons, and eating from the table of the demons, instead of from Gods, is a very serious offense. He chose death, we can only pray that God will forgive him and raises him in the resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous John 5:28,29 ; Acts 24:15. What he did was very demonic and evil against God and the truth, deliberately sinning in such a rebellious and Satanic sacrificing of his own life to the worship of the Devil. But Jehovah God is loving and merciful toward all. His life is in the hands of God and his Son the Christ, as all of our lives are. Amen.

Man....when I think I know everything about MJ, I find out even more stuff that just puts his life in perspective even more! Wow. This is why I get upset when people talk sh💩 about Michael. The average person really has NO IDEA what trauma this man has gone through at such a young impressionable age. It was too much for his mind. And he really didn't know how to handle it...but he handled it better than most would have. Others woulda "self deleted" as they say.

This man was too distraught to celebrate Christmas because he thought he was doing something horrible. Yet, the media and those who have so much hate for him, wants to try and convince us he’s a menacing child molester. Give me a damn break. This is why it’s soooo important this film tackles EVERYTHING. So people can finally see the MAN that he is, someone with dignity, self respect, and would never do something to shame his faith in god, in his family, his career, his LIFE, his FREEDOM! I wish ppl would consider this who are so convinced that he’s a molester.

Eugh... You call yourself a Christian? Did you know that the rule of disfellowship is more than 2.000 years old? This was already applied in the early Christian congregations when the apostles were still alive. This is not something the JW invented. They just follow the early example to keep the Christian congregation clean, an example that other churches should follow.

@@Dishanclauzr Expelling someone is the very, very, very last option used. That is when someone committed a serious sin and most of all is not repentant.

If you don't want to commit to that then what is the use to be part of a Christian congregation? Don't you agree?

Asking for forgiveness , asking him to watch over my family & myself , thanking him 4 what we have n don't have, cause we all need to be thankful every day, not just in Thanksgiving...praying for the loss of ppl, asking for protection n blessings, n 4 him to makes a better person...nobody can compare to him ever n he knows it , he's king of Kings n Lord of Lord...last i ask him to understand me that by being a fan of Michael Jackson, im not putting God last, n im not comparing Michael Jackson, or any other person to him in any way...this is totally a Different page its a different story, here on Earth, i know the bible says not to have idols, but it don't mean that cause i have mags, pics, shirt, records, etc of Michael Jackson, in no way does it mean i worship Michael...at least thats what i think, cause if that were the case then that means that id would've be kneeling myself in front of Michael, n asking for forgiveness of my sins , n ask him to do miracles etc, But i didn't do that...just that I ❤ Michael Jackson & his 🎶 that's all😢🙏😇💔

It's weird to me that Katherine left the Lutheran and Baptist churches because of some pastors' misconduct. First of all, they are sinners too. Second, you go to church for God, not for a pastor or a priest. If you go for the latter, you've never been there for God in the first place. You can always switch churches (as in buildings) if you dont like your pastor for some reason.

They have to set the Example as Jesús did. A Christian is a follower of christ. If a Church is not following everything Jesús did or did not do they're not Christian. This is simple maths. Jesús rebuked the Scribes and Pharasees who were the religious leaders of his day for not practicing what they preached. They killed him for it too.

@@natashamcfarlane7727 well, no, a christian is NOT someone who does every single thing Jesus did. It is even impossible for we are not God. To be Christian you have to realize you are not perfect and never will be thus you need Savior to sanctify you and free you from any stain. Human nature in itself is imperfect. Walking with God will heal your life and soul though, even if you will forever be an imperfect sinner. And showing this truth to others can be a better testament to God and His mercy and love in the spectators' eyes. I think it is better for people to see a flawed person being accepted and loved than to see a person who is morally higher than others. It’s easier to learn from the former. The latter isn't as motivating and as beautiful than the former. Christians are humans, not gods on earth. Please, don’t expect them to be perfect. That is not what christianity is about. The greatest sinner is welcome at Church. And that’s what's beautiful. And they can keep coming back even if they sinned day by day anew. Thank you for reading and responding.

Such a tiny Congregation as Jehovah but with such egos, blinded by sheer arrogance decided to attack him instead of using to expand their faith.

As an orthodox Christian I understand how hard is to keep your faith and to do what you are born to do in life. I think Michael made a good decision following his purpose and his gift. In the Bible it sais that if what you do you do by faith it is not a sin. So basically, if you do no wrong to people, and you honor God and you do this putting all your heart into it it's forgiven even if maybe some elders would advise you to do different things...

All their beliefs and faith are reasonable and are always based on the bible. Please respect other religions. They never pushed away Michael it is Michael's personal decision to quit..In fact, the JWs are helping others to draw close to GOD. So why would they reject him? he has been disallowed for some reasons
