Jehovah's Witnesses are Representative Christologists who believe that Jesus, although lesser than The Father, was granted full authority to act in his place (not that they follow the full implications of their doctrine).
paradisebeauty: My personal opinion is that God created a new type of being that somehow can travel between earth ad heaven, Jesus was the first one and the other christians will be transformed in the same type of being at the rapture.
What about the angels in Noah's time?
Just prior to my disfellowshipping years ago I explained to an elder what my thoughts were. He compared the Witnesses to a barbeque grill full of coals where you have to be part of the fiery pile to continue shining (otherwise if you're separated you cool off). He was obviously giving me the "stay close to the organization" routine.
I gave him my own explanation of how I saw God and his plan. I compared God to a light source, the Holy Spirit to the light itself and Jesus to a large diamond acting as a prism in breaking down the light into its colors.
We humble humans were supposed to be pieces of dusty dirty coal that was to be compressed and transformed into diamonds through salvation. Thus a million and one diamonds were to sparkle in the light as opposed to the imperfect burning which represented our physical life.
