How Do I Respond to the Claim of a Jehovah's Witness That Jesus Is Not God? 

Praying 🙏🏼 I’m in a similar situation

Easy to pin them down They believe Yesus was Angel Michael so if that’s the case in Job 4:18 states God charges his angles with error making thr Jesus one prone to Error yet the Bible states in John 15:9 tht his the only person who Gor loved for he was perfect..2nd they believe the 2nd coming of the messiah wil happen secretly and in 1799 they predicted end of the world..which failed then 1874..1914..1915..1918 which all failed… The coming of the messiah will be known since in Rev 1:7 say all eyes shall see him …and when they bring the claim of saying thr the chosen ones…Use John 4:22 which says Salvation came to the Jews and gentiles wil be required to be grafted in Israel so as to receive the promise made to Abraham by God(Romans 11:11-26)..Don’t allow them change topic.. if he can’t defend his point just encourage him to seek for the truth out of JW Bible and commentary’s

Read Luke 10. Speak the truth. If they don't listen to you SHAKE THE DUST OFF OF YOUR FEET AND MOVE ON. You are not called to debate with eloquent words but to preach the gospel truth in power. People need to REPENT and this includes they need to repent for believing lies. Jesus said, "You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free!!" The Holy Spirit will lead whoever seeks after truth into all truth. We still need to SAY SOMETHING, make disciples, teaching then to obey everything Jesus commanded. Read Ezekiel 3.

Eyes Wide Open That's because the JW New World Translation as with other translation sticks to the oldest and most reliable source, examples like the NIV, ESV, etc. The King James Version of the bible does not apply the oldest and most reliable source at all and is solely based on what is translated in the 16th century. So these so called changes were in represents to the 4th century source instead of the altered 16th source. The belief of Michael and Jesus being one in the same is a belief from the 8th and or 9th century which is way beyond the JWs came into existence. John 8 : 58 does not prove Jesus is God because any man can investigate for themselves that ego eimi and ego eimi ho on are different and how common it was to the Greek people of that time who speaks this way, something of which I explained to the other guy who tried to mix Greek Words together. JWs are merely restorationist Christians for they care nothing more of strict adherence to the bible and Christians like that are rare, and are the only ones to be attacked time and time again by mainstream Christianity.

Zoll, do you know who translated the New World Translation Bible and did they have any knowledge of the Hebrew or Greek languages? I beg you to compare the NWT to their own Greek interlinear. It is unbelievably inaccurate. Do your research, and not on JW. Org. Hebrews chapter one proves Jesus is not an angel. Read it for yourself, and pray for understanding. Revelation clearly states that Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the First and the Last. The one who is coming, who was dead and is now alive. Revelation chapters 1 & 2. Jehovah's Witnesses are not being attacked, they are being exposed. They portray our Lord and Savior as an angel. They reject his precious sacrifice by rejecting the bread and wine. They memorialize his death, yet he is not dead. He is alive, he is our MIghty King, our Lord of Lords, our Judge, our Savior. Praise be to Him! God bless

Eyes Wide Open Do not be foolish. It is not a matter if how well someone knows the language and or not, it is by means if sheer biblical hermeneutics and respecting the source. The New World Translation, as with a with a few bible translations follow the Septuagint, the oldest and most reliable source the bible is based off off, anything outside of that is utter nonsense. The Interlinear Bible of the Jehovah's Witnesses is based off of the 1550, for if you are unaware of that number, in English from a theological standpoint the 1550 is the Stephens Textus Receptus (among others). There are other Textus Receptus verisons that are known to be false, apparently this one is not, and what adds moe proof and fact is that the 1550 is on a majority of bible translations sites so anyone can compare the 1550 to any Interlinear that is based off the 1550, in turn, the Septuagint unlike other Textus Receptus translations that have been tampered with. I do not need to do the research, I know my hermeneutics, I know my Christology, I know the history of the church, the church fathers, and a plethora of other things, this includes the Great Awakening, and since this is a discussion about Jehovah's Witnesses, the Second and Third Awakening that is come out of the Restorationist Movement that has brought Christianity into the world stage. In the history of Jews, Jesus was a representative of God, one who has done Shaliah Principle also known as Angelic Agency, something of which all messengers of God are bounded to, hence Angel, meaning Malak, which in English means, Messenger. Jesus is basically an Angel, in this regard, a Messenger who is speaking the Word of God by means of Shaliah Principle. Hebrews chapter 1 only proves that Jesus has been exalted by God and made superior beforw his angelic brothers and nothing more, all sons of God, but this one, is of whom God exalted because he is the only begotten. Plus you have Apostle Paul to thank for he himself referred to the Christ as an Angel (Malak). Actually this is only Revelations chapter 1. The Septuagint proves that as well as biblical hermeneutics and it does not prove Jesus, a man who claims he has a God (John 20 : 17), is God. The Trinitarian claim doesn't even make logical sense with their own doctrine since they are confusing identities which their own doctrine insists you must not confuse. The first and the last was dead. Only a created being can say He was dead, but God cannot die, be killed or be subjected to death, that is outlandish and ridiculous for a creator of all things to be to killed by mere mortal man. Yahweh is immortal/incorruptible which means He cannot be dead. For this reason, it is quite impossible to identify Jesus as Yahweh the God. It is clear that these titles refer to creation and Jesus is the Beginning of the new creation since he is the firstborn out of the dead. Everything begins and ends with the Father's Word. The Genesis act of creation was accomplished by means of His spoken Word and that is why we find He is the first and the last in the book of Isaiah. He is where the Genesis act of creation began and since He will judge the world through a man He has appointed, He is where it will also end. God the Father created by means of His spoken Word and judges the world through His word at the end of the ages. God the Father will judge the world through him (Acts 17 : 31) and God the Father creates all things anew in him (Col 1 : 16-18; Revelation 21). God the Father now creates all things through the risen Christ, His Word become flesh. The new creation begins and ends at the Father's Word: the risen man, Jesus our Lord. Jehovah's Witnesses are not really exposed, they are Restorationist, for if they were indeed exposed, you'd be out there heeding to Jesus' command instead of them in terms of the foundation of the church, let alone the spread of the gospel, and the belief of Jesus being a representative of God under Shaliah Principle, an angel, has been a practice since the 8th century, heck, even back in the days of Apostle of what he said in the scriptures himself. How are they rejecting his death? These people put their lives at risk for the Great Commission even subject themselves God the Father and adhere to the teachings of which his Son proclaimed by means of Shaliah Principle, you are not being specific. Jesus also asked us to remember and or commemorate in regards to his death and believe in what is to come - the resurrection. Jesus is not God. For Jesus is the Son of God, as everyone in the bible have stated, from angels, to disciples, followers, Pharisees like Nicodemus, to Jews who wanted Jesus dead and succeeded, to demons and even Satan himself. All and all I suggest you learn about scripture and history of Christianity as well as the Bible itself first and this time perhaps chooses your words more wisely with facts instead of what you are being ded by Anti-Christians.

May I ask, are you currently a Jehovah's Witness?

Eyes Wide Open No, but I have been studying them for nearly a decade, as with other faiths including Judaism, Islam (Sunni and Shia), etc. I am a Christian and I have respect for what is true and should any falsehood be brought up, by means of Christian theology and biblical hermeneutics I will confute - something I have been doing on this channel for a while now. However here I am talking about actual facts about jws, on another video I am talking about both Christianity and Islam. That being said, I dislike people who lie and are dishonest and I am able to see if a faith is close to what is true and those who are far from what is true and not be fed misconception, conspiracy and hate by those who are against a faith and such persons only proves those they attack to be true to their word, so in this case you and the people you stick up for are only making jws stronger the same can be said for Muslim opponents. Ironically, only mainstream Christianity is dying off around the world, increased in the EU countries loke the UK and Asia as well as America, however not the minority faiths that include JWs. Also I didn't address before, but I from France, I currently live in the US and I study thr history of Christianity and Religion.

@Riaz Qureshi my friend the actual bulletproof case is found at Revelation 21-6 and 7 with all due respect you never made a comment on that scripture because that one scripture very explicitly proves that only the father is the Alpha and the Omega. Because nowhere in scripture has Jesus ever called anyone his son or his sons also the father has never called anyone his brothers. Jesus in the scriptures always calls his disciples his brothers not his sons. So if you can show me a scripture where Jesus has ever quoted calling anyone his son's then I will believe that Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega. Trying to use implied scriptures does not make the trinity the proof that it needs. The scripture that I just showed you is an explicit scripture not an implied scripture like you try to use . Also there is nowhere in the Bible that says that the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost are one God. What's interesting in the King James version could not prove the Trinity so they inserted a spurious scripture at 1st John 5:7 but they never said even in that scripture use the word "one God " it just says "one" not the word one God, because one can mean anything one in purpose when an agreement Etc. So anyway my friend just something to think about. And I am not trying to win an argument I am just showing you what the bible really teaches. Thank you for your comments

@@jazzbassf Brother, Revelation 21:6-7 proves my case. The fact that Both Jesus and the Father are saying that statement is bc they are 1 (See John 10:30) Jesus says he is the first and the last multiple times in Revelation the same as YHWH does in Isaiah 48:12 proving their equality in essence. You said there isn't a scripture where the trinity is shown. I thought this too until I read the old testement carefully. Please read these verses showing that yes God is 1 in essence but he has a complex in his nature as being 3 persons: As you can see there are 2 LORD statements here: "Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens." - Genesis 19:24 Also here there are 3 divine persons in isaiah speaking as YHWH": “Come near to Me, hear this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; From the time that it was, I was there. And now the Lord God and His Spirit Have sent Me.” - Isaiah 48:16-17 As you can see even the Old testament knew that God was complex in his unity. And finally in the new Testament proving that Jesus is God: "And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven." - Mark 14:62 This verse in Mark is a direct deference to Daniel 7:13-14 showing that the son of man will receive an everlasting dominion and all nations will worship him the same way they worship the father proving that God is multiple in his 1 being.

@@infinityApologeticsClips yes at John 10:30 Jesus says the father and I are one. However I John 17:11 he elaborates what he meant by that he said that his Apostles and him and his father are one. So he's talking about one in purpose and agreements not one God otherwise the apostles would be God too. And of course I don't think you believe in polytheism. But still my friend you haven't shown me a scripture that says that Jesus ever called anyone his sons only the father calls people his sons and you cannot make an assumption the Jesus is one God with the father because of the Alpha and the Omega. That is just an assumption or an implication it's not explicit. In order to convince a person that the Trinity is explicit you would have to show where it says the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit are one God. There's not one single scripture in the Bible that says that. Again thank you very much for your comments and many blessings to you if you can see what the bible really teaches about the father who is the only true God. And please don't tell me that Jesus must be a false god because he's called the god that would not make sense because the word god means a mighty one you cannot deny the fact that Jesus is a mighty one or a mighty God. He is never called The Almighty God anywhere in the Bible. You can find implications of that but not explicit thank you my friend.

@@jazzbassf Brother, why didn't you comment on my OT verses on the multiplicity in God's nature. Could you please comment on Genesis 19:24 where it shows 2 LORD statements and Isaiah 48:3 where it shows 3 divine persons.

@@infinityApologeticsClips Genesis 19:24 is a figure of speech. There is only one Jehovah they're not two Jehovahs. Deuteronomy 6:4 says listen o Israel Jehovah our God is one Jehovah. And according to that scripture if it wasn't figurative then we would have to Jehovahs so that would be impossible. As to Isaiah 48:12 I do not know what the point is there on Isaiah 48:12?

Exiverence Let us hold firmly the public declaration of our hope without wavering, for the one who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider one another so as to incite to love and fine works, 25 not forsaking our meeting together, as some have the custom, but encouraging one another, and all the more so as you see the day drawing near. Heb.10:23-25

The evolution of the name Yahweh to Jehovah has a complex history - for example; the proposed summary would not encompass the Latin aspect in transliteration, as the Hebrew texts translated into Latin and which represented the Tetragrammaton as 'IHVH', it was the European scholars attempts at vocalizing this, that eventually lead to the emergence the pronunciation of 'Jehovah'. That said, this process would not be as straightforward as taking the consonants and placing German vowels between them, as we find the development of the name predates that of Hebrew vowel pointing among European scholars.

Do you know what is the fallacy of false dilema?....suggesting that there is only two options or Jesus was merely a human or He was the God almghty and also son of God almighy basically Jesus is his own father is a flase dilema....but JWs have a third option found in the bible extremely logical ...Jesus been the human name given to the Angel of the Lord we see thruough the bible and later revealed been Michael the great prince depicted in Daniel 12:1-2, read the OT complete and you will learn that angels are sons of God almighty (Job 1:6 and2:1) also they are called gods in Psalms 82:1-6,also will see the most powerful angel doing things and when you react the NT then the last book Revelation will make you head explote due to how many times Jesus is depicted as the most powerful angel or Son of God almighty

Here's what happened: In John 14:8, Philip makes a direct request of Jesus: "Show us the Father" Okay - Who is Philip asking to see? Who is meant by the phrase "the Father"? God Himself. Considering the context of who Philip is (a Jew), there is NO other way to understand that. This is irrefutable. Look at the response Jesus gives in verse 9. "If you've seen Me, you've seen the Father." Using the context of who Philip is, and only meaning possible for the phrase "the Father", Jesus answers and directly tells Philip: "If you've seen Me, you've seen Him. If you've seen Me, you've seen God Himself." This, also, is irrefutable.

bsymph Jesus isn't God. And knowing JWs are Restorationist such ones follow the bible to the very roots.

Zoll then explain how Jesus is Michael the archangel! Jws believe that! And they also don't believe in hell!

bsymph They believe that Jesus is Michael because both of them lead the same people of God out of harm's way, they are both above the angels and both had lead the angels into battle against Satan and his demons, they both also rebuke Satan and they both have an Archangel's voice as well as titles. This belief began in the 8th and or 9th century and had been believed by mostly Restorationist Christians, even beyond the second and third awakening if you count History of Christianity. The only difference is some also believe Jesus/Michael is God while others do not, others believe either an pre-existing Jesus/Michael for Jesus was not Jesus until prior his birth and so forth. This doctrine did not originate with the Jehovah's Witnesses. They, as well as others, even myself, do not believe in hell being the lake of fire and there is a verse that even proves this and what the lake of fire actually is, that is if you adhere to the original source of the bible, in addition to that any man who has read the Hebrew Old Testament they would see how God deals with people who pass people alive through the fire let alone God's emotional reaction and what God had allowed to happen to the likes of Ahaz or that of Menassah, who ended up begging to God via repentance.

Zoll it's the father the son and the holy spirit! I highly doubt that Michael the archangel is God's son

bsymph Friend, it is not about doubt or assuming. When it comes to biblical hermeneutics, there is always a how and a why and there are indeed verses in scripture that shows how connected Jesus and Michael were or in this case how is it the pre-existing Jesus, before being called Immanuel or Jesus, his name and status in heaven before he was born of a woman into the law and after becoming the Christ, knowing his position and what is to come and so forth. The problem here is not with Jesus Michael or not, the thing that seems to cause a stirr is Jesus' status of a messenger, a representative of God by means of Shaliah Principle.

@ Liberty and Justice ... my friend the Bible that you are using uses the word by, but in the original Greek the Greek word is Dia which means "through". Why do other Bibles use the word through? And that Bible that you're using which is a biased translation the King James version. New Bible translations use the word through not by. Go to Strong's Concordance and look up the word by and see that it is the Greek word DIA. The Greek word Dia means through not by. So it is "through" not " by ". Everything was created through Jesus not by Jesus. Pretty big difference. The only question for you is why do those other Bible translations use the word through? And by the way many of those Bibles are not the new world translations of the Holy scriptures. So why do they use the word through just like the New World Translation?? It is because the newer Bible translations have discovered that the original Greek word means "through". Just something for you to think about my friend. Many blessings to you, If you can see that Jehovah God created everything "through Jesus not "by" Jesus.Agape

Watchtower, Nov. 1, 1972, page 644 - in brackets added Admitting to making false prophecies doesn't magically change them, they are still Bible defined false prophecies (Deut 18:2-0-22) Very poor reasoning, probably why JWs "suggested dates" and went beyond scripture.

@Tru Man, when Jesus said my Lord and my God in the original Greek it says the Lord of me and the god of me, so Jesus was talking about two persons because at John 20:31 he told Mary not to touch him because he was Ascending to his God and her God so, God cannot have someone who is God to him. And then at John 20:31 the Apostle John said that people may know that Jesus is the son of God, not God the son. The scriptures are pretty clear and explicit my friend , trying to use implied scriptures does not make that scripture say that Jesus is God. Many blessings to you if you can see what the bible really teaches about who is the true God.

I promise you, all you have to do is respectfully tell your neighbor that you're not interested in engaging in spiritual conversations with him and agree to disagree. It's possible to remain good neighbors while respecting your differences and boundaries. Those with strong faith will be motivated to share their beliefs with others, but if it's a bother simply say that and move along. Just a suggestion =-)

it never gets boring to talk about Jehovah.

There is but 1 Jehovah (YHWH)

na' ah mean? Exactly, there's also Revelations 3 : 2 and when Jesus was crucified, he cried out to God.

Hey na' ah mean? Love the name and the scripture you presented. If they cannot see that, they just do not want to see it.

na' ah mean? So true. "Jesus said to her, “Stop holding on to me,[a] for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Is there a God other than the God of Jesus and Mary?

@WORD ASSASSIN how is John 8:58 of any significance?

@wackoguywatch God created everything through Jesus. Jesus was the firstborn of all creation. He was not the co creator, but the means God used to create everything in heaven and on earth.

@wackoguywatch my friend with all due respect and Christian love , please look up that word "by" in the original Greek language the Greek word is 'DIA' which actually means "through" it does not mean "by" otherTrinitarian translations have corrected it , but the KJV still will not correct that word. The good news bible a Trinitarian translation "16 For through him God created everything in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen things, including spiritual powers, lords, rulers, and authorities. God created the whole universe through him and for him. Notice it uses the word " through" not "by" Just go to Strongs concordance and see for yourself what the word "DIA" means on Col 1:16

@Christopher Sawyer excellent response my brother...

@wackoguywatch by means "by someone" through means "through somone" that is why other trinitrian translations changed it to the word "through"

Jose Zuniga That’s awesome. I wish you the beast with your Mom. My JW family is a lost case. They don’t talk to me anymore. Good luck though.

You forgot to mention that not only is the word Jehovah not in any Greek NT text but that neither is the word Jesus or the word God. This is because they are English words and so we would not expect to find them in the Greek text. However, there are numerous copies of the Septuagint which still used the ancient Hebrew letters for YHWH and so you appear to be incorrect in this matter. Likewise, there are a number of Jewish scholars on RU-vid insisting that the divine name was pronounced Yehowah (with the W sounding as a v) and certainly NOT Yahweh.

Ewan Kerr JWs themselves admit the YHWH does not exist in the Greek scriptures but they insist in inserting it. Why? They claim the Greek scripture were corrupted. Is so, what else is corrupted? How can anyone trust the Greek scriptures after that? JWs also know that the first time the word Jehovah appeared in writing was in the 13th century when Raymundus Martini, a Catholic monk, translated the YHWH. Why use a Catholic incorrect translation that mixed up ADONAI and YHWH as their name? I don’t get it.

I am sure the JWs can speak for themselves. The divine name does feature in ancient Hebrew in copies of the Septuagint from which the early Christians quoted/copied. It seems a distinct possibility that there may have been copies of the divine name in early copies of the NT which are now lost to us as most if not all the early copies are.I am not aware of the claim that he JWs claim the NT is corrupted and have never seen this in their literature. Perhaps you can provide a reference.They use the name, I guess, because that is the name of God found in the King James Bible and most other English language Bibles of the time. Indeed, there are RU-vid videos by Jewish language and Biblical specialists readily available online who argue that he name must be pronounced Yehowah ( with the W spoken as a V)Few, if any, object to the name Jesus when we know it was most likely Yeshua . But Jesus is the traditional name and has been used for centuries.

Maximus Octavius it does not exist in the Greek scripture they put it in where it’s quoting the Hebrew text where it is in. On this they should of stuck to what the Greek say in the Greek scripture. It’s still accurate I guess in translating but best to stick to what the Greek says. Apart from that it’s a pretty accurate translation

Correct. Though noone knows the exact pronunciation.

Tony Castellano why?

Yes 100% she is the mother of God. Because the very Jesus Christ she bore is God.

The trinity doctrine is predicated-upon the existence of a triune god, that is to say, a god that is one being in three person. Now to be fair, there are many variations and theological expansions as well as sub-definitions of the otherwise, simple definition cited here - though for the most part, this would constitute the primary component of trinity doctrine. With that said, and with respect to the technical aspects of the so-called triune god, it is also worth noting that the onset of the persons of the godhead interacting with one another is generally reconciled by means of individual persons of the single being(or substance) of GOD who is one. Now to be completely fair, I would not drag this out by playing the devil's advocate with apologetics and a defense of a doctrine that is far too controversial to be the truth of scripture, and of an infamous god who is is never actually established in scripture. That is to say; that there are no actual declarations, definitions or revelations of such a god(triune) found anywhere in scripture, just as there there are no records of anyone worshiping, teaching or preaching of such a god at any point in Bible history. And so while there is no shortage of those believing they can justify such a god by means of proof-texts and residual arguments from scripture, it remains that they do-so without ever having established said god to begin with, making the doctrine one very big case of circular reasoning - as proponents of the belief find themselves justifying their belief, by means of supporting texts for a god that is never actually substantiated. In addition to this, and to make matters worse, what declarations are written with regard to GOD's nature, prove to be the exact opposite of a triune god, as we find the GOD who sent Jesus to save mankind declaring Himself the source and cause of all things alone and by Himself; _Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb: _*_"I am Yahweh, who makes all things_*_ who _*_alone_*_ stretches out the heavens; who spreads out the earth _*_by myself_* - Isaiah 44.24 Therefore and much to the detriment of trinitarians, the GOD and Father of Jesus Christ, is not triune at all, but instead, the singular source from which all things are. Leaving no room whatsoever for any other; person, being, or otherwise. And finally, and to conclude matters, the only recourse for trinitarians with this, is to invoke the being(or substance) vs person argument, in-an attempt to avert the contradiction of one GOD who is alone and by Himself. Thus concluding that the GOD(YHWH) speaking the declaration is none other than the being(or substance), who is one GOD alone. However and as the terms used in the declaration(see; alone and by Myself), are entirely personal in nature, trinitarians are therefore forced to admit one of the persons of the triune godhead in order to qualify the declaration, therefore forfeiting their triune god in the process, as there can be no such condition as 'alone' and 'by myself' within the godhead. - hope this little write-up proves useful to you, and GOD bless!

id say its easier to understand if you read the bible thinking Paul had a particular view, John had a different view, The authors of all the gospels had different ideas.... then as the decades passed Christians worked to mesh it all together in a variety of different ways.

A PROTESTANT publication states: “The word Trinity is not found in the Bible . . . It did not find a place formally in the theology of the church till the 4th century.” (The Illustrated Bible Dictionary) And a Catholic authority says that the Trinity “is not . . . directly and immediately [the] word of God.”-New Catholic Encyclopedia.

The Encyclopedia of Religion admits: “Theologians today are in agreement that the Hebrew Bible does not contain a doctrine of the Trinity.” And the New Catholic Encyclopedia also says: “The doctrine of the Holy Trinity is not taught in the O[ld] T[estament].”

Similarly, in his book The Triune God, Jesuit Edmund Fortman admits: “The Old Testament . . . tells us nothing explicitly or by necessary implication of a Triune God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. . . . There is no evidence that any sacred writer even suspected the existence of a [Trinity] within the Godhead. . . . Even to see in [the “Old Testament”] suggestions or foreshadowings or ‘veiled signs’ of the trinity of persons, is to go beyond the words and intent of the sacred writers.”-

And again: “I will become his father, and he will become my son”? 6 But when he again brings his Firstborn into the inhabited earth, he says: “And let all of God’s angels do obeisance to him.” 7 Also, he says about the angels: “He makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.” 8 But about the Son, he says: “God is your throne forever and ever, and the scepter of your Kingdom is the scepter of uprightness. 9 You loved righteousness, and you hated lawlessness. That is why God, your God, anointed you with the oil of exultation more than your companions.”

Kneeland, 1822.) 1829: "and the Word was a god" - The Monotessaron; or, The Gospel History According to the Four Evangelists (J. S. Thompson, 1829) 1863: "and the Word was a god" - A Literal Translation of the New Testament (Herman Heinfetter [Pseudonym of Frederick Parker], 1863) " - A New Emphatic Version (right hand column) 1864: "and a god was the Word" - The Emphatic Diaglott by Benjamin Wilson, New York and London (left hand column interlinear reading) 1885: "and the Word was a god" - Concise Commentary on The Holy Bible (R. Young, 1885) 1911: "and [a] God was the word" - The Coptic Version of the New Testament in the Southern Dialect, by George William Horner.[17] 1924: "the Logos was divine" - The Bible: James Moffatt Translation, by James Moffatt.[18] 1935: "and the Word was divine" - The Bible: An American Translation, by John M. P. Smith and Edgar J. Goodspeed, Chicago.[19] 1955: "so the Word was divine" - The Authentic New Testament, by Hugh J. Schonfield, Aberdeen.[20] 1958: "and the Word was a god" - The New Testament of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Anointed (J. L. Tomanec, 1958); so with this small sample we can see that these translations agree with the NWT and this was before the NWT came into existence in 1950

jazzbassf fenderjazz That’s interesting. But there is no other God, true God, than YHWH. So how can Jesus be a true god? And see how many translations don’t add the “a” and the little g (god) to John 1:1 - www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/John%201%3A

Exactly. If Jesus isn't God, then his sacrifice on the cross could not take away the sins of the world and bring us into a relationship with the Father. Doesn't matter if Jesus lived a perfect life without sinning, if he was just a human being like us, and no divinity, then how does that save us?

The statement of Jesus to the Jews, "I AM" is the exact same statement that God gave to Moses in Exodus 3:13-15. 3)"What about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, "I am God's Son"? Do not believe me unless I do what my Father does.

I hold the Christian teaching of the Trinity and you hold the opposite. Historically your position which is Arianism was considered by the Church as heresy. However, to have an amicable discussion with you about it doesn’t hurt my beliefs but helps me to understand them better and not be blind to the cracks in my reasoning. Christians are not afraid of opposition rather it is an opportunity to examine ourselves. Don’t you agree?

aspreedacore. So Jesus is a false God? There is only ONE true God so either Jesus is true God or he is a false god. Which is it?

Maximus Octavius so Moses is a false god? So judges are false gods? There is only one true god so either they are false gods or true gods which is it?Lawl

aspreedacore Thank you for your reply. The term “god”, little g, is applied to humans who hold a position of authority like Moses. The term “God”, big G, can only be correctly applied to GOD, the only true God, that is what YHWH said in thru the prophet Isaiah 43:10-11 ESV [10] "You are my witnesses," declares the LORD, "and my servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after me. [11] I, I am the LORD, and besides me there is no savior.” Is YHWH saying that Moses was not a god? No, He is talking about a completely different category, that of those who claim to be GOD, the true God such as Baal, Moloch, Dagon, Ra, etc. etc. Do you see my point? In John 1:1 the apostle says “the Word was God”, big G, thus the question is Jesus a false GOD or the true GOD? The answer is Jesus is the true GOD, big G.

Maximus Octavius original languages was all capitals, lowercase and uppercase is translators choice therefore reading modern day presuppositions into the text that wasn’t in the text. In psalms 8:5 angels are called Elohim, we know this because Paul quotes this and applies it to angels in Hebrews 2:7 despite Malak(Hebrew for god) not being there. Also all of psalms 8 is about god himself putting man over the works of his hands, so by trinitarian logic angels should be YHWH. Last point you said Moses was called god in a different sense, following your logic is Aaron a prophet in a different sense? Only god’s have prophet’s no? Also he is a god In a different sense then how is Jesus a prophet like Moses? Good talk, may we both sharpen our irons🙂

YHWH and Jehovah are two different ways to pronounce the same word in the Hebrew (יהוה), I think he is confused with the Greek word Kurios (Κυριοσ) translated as Lord in the NT. The Septuagint (Greek translation of the Old Testament clearly translates YHWH as kurios which means lord or master).

@@spyben3 Yes the name Jehovah was invented by a Spanish Catholic Monk in the year 1270 AD coming from the YHWH . Vowels were inserted between the consonants to come up with the name Jehovah and this name was never before this time used. Yahweh would be a better name and more accurate.

@@seanrathmakedisciples1508 People all over the world have different pronunciations of The True God's Name & recognizes his Name

So true. And it's so funny that ALL Bible translators put the indefinite article ("a") in front of god at Acts 28:6 because the context rightly leads them to do so. In fairness, the same should be applied to John 1:1

@lary Snw The New World Translation is not regarded by any credible translation scholar as being an accurate translation. It is regarded (rightly) as actually a perversion, put out by the Jehovah's Witnesses. Jason BeDuhn is sometimes appealed to as a "scholar" who endorses the NWT. He is a professor of religious studies. That is not by ANY means the same thing as an accredited translation scholar. JWs are told by their leaders (whom they follow with no questions, so “masters” is a more accurate term than leaders) that the people who put it together were well-qualified to do so. Okay so who are they and what and where are their credentials in translation studies? If the JW claim of them being well-qualified is true, then produce the names and credentials so everyone can see for themselves. But that doesn't happen. The truth is - When anyone reads the NWT, they are reading a book that was put together by people whom you have no idea at all whether they were qualified to do translation work. The NWT was created by the JWs in order to say what their doctrines say - Their doctrines came first - then the NWT was created to back them. This is totally backwards. Seriously - Think about this - The JW doctrines came first, and then a "Bible" was created that supports them. Does that sound "right" to you? No one need take my word for this - Go here and make up your own mind: www.gotquestions.org/New-World-Translation.html

@@jamesritter5078 Is this your experience or are you merely repeating what you have heard? Can you provide an example of a non "programmed response" in which you feel would cause the JW to flee?

@@TheCaledonianBoy - What I've written is based on both my multiple experiences with JWs, and is also backed up by the official writings of the JW masters. JWs are indeed a programmed people - They are told in no uncertain terms in their literature that they are not to read the Bible for themselves; they MUST use the WTS literature. JWs are a controlled people. It is not an understatement to see them as being thralls to the WTS. In terms of a non-programmed response - Yes, I can provide an example that causes JWs to flee: Even the NWT itself, shows that Jesus Christ is God come in the flesh. Go to John 14:8-9. Philip makes a direct request of Jesus: "Show us the Father" Okay - Who is Philip asking to see? Who is meant by the phrase "the Father"? God Himself. Considering the context of who Philip is (a Jew), there is no other way to understand that. None. Look at the response Jesus gives in verse 9. "If you've seen Me, you've seen the Father." Using the context of who Philip is, and only meaning possible for the phrase "the Father", Jesus answers and directly tells Philip: "If you've seen Me, you've seen Him. If you've seen Me, you've seen God Himself." I have pointed this exchange and the irrefutable meaning of it out to JWs many, many times. There is (currently) no programmed response to this exchange....although I won't be surprised if, the next time the NWT is "revised", the verse is changed in some way in order to pervert it. Anyway, for the present time, every single time I have asked a JW to look at and interact with what that exchange is openly, clearly pointing to, they have never once honestly engaged with it to the slightest degree, and have instead run away to another verse, or changed the subject or literally, physically fled.

raymond Gabrelcik/ Ray, I appreciate your comment & your candidness. Please consider this. John 3:16 is arguably the most famous Script from God's Word. Jesus said, & I implore you to pray on this deeply: that a person either "Has everlasting life, or he perishes." The idea that we have something in us, either "Spirit" or "Soul" that is immortal, is NOT a Bible teaching, it is straight out of Plato's playbook & is indeed a sly variation of that first venomous lie that Satan told Eve, that when you die, you don't really die, ie. your flesh dies but another part of your personhood is indestructible. The Bible states that people will be resurrected by Christ Jesus if they are worthy to receive a resurrection or they will never see the light of day again. When YHWH told Adam, "Son on the day you eat from the tree, you will positively DIE. He didn't even come close to inferring; I'm going to burn you consciously on fire forever. Jehovah is a GOD of.Love & Justice & neither would be applied as a sentence for 70 yrs. of Sin. It would be more like (INSANE) !!! Even more than the Nature of God; the misunderstanding of Hell & what it really is, Confounds my psyche & sensibilities the utmost. The wages Sin pays is Death, we PERISH, we no longer get to enjoy life, it is indeed punishment, it is written, it is biblical. The Lazuras parable is not describing afterlife, it would not reflect conciliation with the rest of Scripture if it was. The Lake of Fire is Symbolic of the second death from which there is no escape, the smoke of which is the emblem of everlasting torment that it represents. That is why it says that (Death.& HELL,ie.the Common Grave of Mankind,) are cast into the Lake of Fire, because Death itself will be swallowed up FOREVER.

They actually work. Anyway, I managed to find a couple of verses in reference to God in the Old Testament, confirmed by Jesus in the New. One of these verses include Zechariah 12:10, confirmed in John 19:37. Zechariah 12 is all about God and his people Israel, with God speaking. You can tell that it's God because the phrase "saith the LORD" is used, which is the same in translation as "saith Jehovah." With that context in mind it can very well be understood that the pronouns "I" and "me" are a direct refrence by Jehovah God to himself, and the pronoun "they" is in relation to the Nation of Israel. Zechariah 12:10: "And *I* will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon *me* whom they have pierced..." John 19 quotes this verse in refrence to the soldiers piercing "him" with a spear. John 19:36-37 "For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken. And again another scripture saith, They shall look on *him* whom they pierced." The problem arises when one understands that Jesus was the one pierced with a spear, not the Father. This contradicts the idea that the Father was speaking in Zechariah 12:10 and upholds the fact that Jesus is Jehovah God.

@@ingodwetrust7778 it's good to hear from you! And you're right spot on. That is Jehovah talking in the 12 chapter of Zachariah. The book is referring to the temple being rebuilt, the protection of the Nation and the restoration of true worship. The Almighty speaks it. Jesus was pierced just as Jehovah God said. But we cannot overlook that it was Jesus hanging up there. It was Jesus crying out " my God my God ." The pain that Jehovah felt was seeing his son suffer, but the joy of him doing it. Remember it was Jehovah's purpose for Jesus to go through this. For the purpose that we can be reconciled to God. This reconciliation was in the future. After his death and resurrection he entered heaven again. He has built the heavenly temple and restored true worship in the " time of the end." Who leads it? Who should we follow? The appointed King, Prince, Ruler, Head of the Christian Congregation. Jesus Christ. The Israel of God is heavenly.

Because you understand the trinity wrongly. Years ago watchtower had a document on the Trinity. Once they were shown there understanding of the trinity were wrong this document diaappeared. Jesus is not the Father, and just like my human father, He was greater. But I am just as human as my own father, so Jesus being the Son is just as" God "as His Father. People believing in Monolism believe Jesus is the Father and Jesus is the HS. But this is NOT the trinity concept. The Father plays a role, So does the Son and so does the H S. While Jesus was on earth the Father gave Him aname exalted above everyname. Not every "other" NWT name. But Every name. All other available bible will say "all names". Check in your Inter linear Greek translation, under the Greek its correct, "every name", but right hand side off the greek / english the added. (other).

@@---qb1bf First of all, I don't think there is much debate that the head of Christ is God. If the concept of the trinity is true, then, this is not an issue since Jesus is the God the Son. A son must be subservient to the Father because He is lower in the Rank of the Godhead. Being the Son of God is precisely why Jesus is part of the Godhead. The Bible says that Jesus is the Only Begotten Son of God. To beget means to give birth to in human terms. However, it does not mean to create. I can make watches and have a son. My watch is my creation but my son is not my creation, rather, he is born of the same essence as me. You can use this analogy to understand why Jesus is God's Only Begotten Son. For Jesus to be the Only Begotten Son of God, it implies that He is the only One that is the same Essence with the Father because a lion cannot beget a goat. Jesus emptied Himself of Divinity (Phil 2:7), so that the Divine plan may be accomplished and when the Divine plan required Jesus to be without power, He lived out the life of a man; which includes prayer. This is how you know He was fully human and was tested just like we are today (Heb 4: 15). Lastly, people forget that the doctrine of the Trinity states that there are 3 Persons in One God. Jesus aligning His Will with that of the Father in the most trying time imaginable, serves to highlight that Plurality in the Godhead. Each Person is distinct in role and Will yet their Wills are always in alignment because a perfect Son's only will is to please His perfect Father. The Father is indeed greater than Jesus as Jesus is the Son of God the Father. The passage you quoted is from John 14:28. In the same chapter, Jesus also said to believe in God and Him together. Jesus also said once the disciples have seen Him, they have seen God. This is not to say that Jesus is a mere representative of God. No one in his right senses would send his son to someone and when the son is asked to show them his father, he replies "he that hath seen me hath seen, my father". But Jesus can, because He is the visible Image of the invisible God (Col 1:15). Not even the Apostles or Angels could make such a statement even though they represented God here on earth. Jesus said He is in the Father and the Father is in Him. He said we should ask anything in His Name. He said the Father is glorified in the Son. Clearly, Jesus assigns attributes of God to Himself but the only thing He does not attribute to Himself is the role of the Father because it is true that His Father is greater than He and this is why Jesus said in the same verse, that He must go back to the Father, not the other way around since He is not the Father, He is the Son. Another way of viewing this relationship is that Jesus is God's Word (John 1). Who is greater, the Word or the Speaker? The Speaker, right? The Word is from the Speaker and of the Speaker and represents the Speaker perfectly. If the Word exegetes the Speaker perfectly, then, the Word and the Speaker are One for when you have One, you know the Will of the Other, and when you have Both, there is no contradiction, and giving glory to the Word implies giving glory to the Speaker. Jesus being appointed an Heir can be found as far back as the book of Psalms. You did not consider the words written right after the portion of the verse you quoted which says it was by Jesus all things were made. But Genesis 1 is clear that all things were made by God. So being appointed Heir does not mean He was created or is not God, it simply means He gets the title of Heir and the things His Father has promised Him; not that Jesus is not already the owner being that He created all things, but He puts Himself under His Father because in Him is humility perfected. No one can see God and live yet Abraham saw God and lived. Jacob saw God and even wrestled with God and lived. They did not see God the Father, because they would have died; that is the only explanation unless you want to be intellectually dishonest with the text. Also, Exodus 33:20 does not apply in the context where Jesus says "if you have seen me you have seen the Father" because it was Philip, a Jew, that asked that question and would have been well aware that whoever sees God will die. Lastly, Jesus did not make the statement to show that He is God the Father, however, He did make the statement that they may know who is the express Image of the Father such that when they see, feel, touch, and hear Him, they experience the Father as well, in the measure in which Humans can comprehend. No man, angel, or created being can make such a statement because no created (temporal) being can explain a timeless being. Lastly, it is not Christians that made up the Trinity, rather, it was forced upon us by the Bible due to the occurrence of plurality in the Godhead in the Old and New Testaments, the Shema Israel, which states that God is One, as well as the Statements of Jesus Christ and the writings of the Apostles and their followers by extension. I pray the Lord Jesus Christ, the Alpha, and Omega (Revelation 1:8), bless you.

caligirl7525 read (Luke 18:18, 19) Jesus established that only God is good. There is a huge difference between God and Jesus

wafle21, are you a Watchtower follower?

What Did Jesus Mean When He Said That Only God is Good? (Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19) Jesus is not saying here that he isn't "good". The point Jesus was making here was that God is good in the absolute and consummate sense. Jesus recognized God as the ultimate standard of what is good. (Ps. 25:8; Zech. 9:17) Though Jesus Christ had this quality of moral excellence, he would not accept “Good” as a title. That is why he said to the one who addressed him as “Good Teacher”: “Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God.” (Mark 10:17, 18) So Jesus was saying that no one is as good as God is, not even Jesus himself. God is good in a way that separates him from Jesus.

The creed was wrong Constatine didnt want his empire devided and settle the dispute While this was going on Christians where in hiding from the Roman empire

Read further down in the verses where Jesus said they claimed he blasphemed BECAUSE HE SAID HE WAS THE SON OF GOD, not God Himself. The Jews made FALSE accusations against him. Making himself a god or as some say God was a false accusation. Then Jesus quoted PSALM 82:6, where God Himself calls MEN "gods". They were the Israelites judges. So the term God could be used for one's representing God. Yet Jesus actually STATES he said he was GOD'S SON. It's there in black and white. Nowhere does he claim to be God as in the Deity.

Give me a single verse that says God can't die. And none of that garbage circular reasoning, just give me the verse. If you don't give the verse, your claim has no Biblical reasoning. Said verse doesn't exist, so it doesn't have a Biblical basis anyway. I suggest you study some more because this is blasphemy. "...feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood." (Acts 20:28) God can die, God did die, and that God is Jesus. One must believe that he is God before they can come to God! "...he that cometh to God must believe that he is..." (Hebrews 11:6) God loves you! Please, my friend, believe before it's too late!

@@americanlegaldefense7789 believe what?...

@@americanlegaldefense7789... Easy answer... read verse Revelation 1:8 my friend... God cannot die if he is the Alpha and the Omega right? He has No beginning and no end... So if Jesus died, he can't be the alpha and the omega can he... Jesus was created.. created by GOD JEHOVAH. He is the begotten of all creation... which makes him Special. Begotten means firstborn from all creation

@@americanlegaldefense7789 All Mighty God is the Alpha and th Omega mentioned in Revelation 1:8. There was never an end or will be an end to Jehovah God. Where as Jesus was created, died, and then was resurrected on the 3rd day.. An All Mighty God could not die, be created or be able to ressurect himself.. NOW remember, Satan never questioned Jehova's Power. For he knew better than to. But he did question his right to rule over us. Which is why were in this mess in the first place. Man cannot rule over man! Look at all the death and greed in this world. We need JEHOVAH as our ruler to guide us . It is why in the Lord's prayer we ask... However, the prayer “Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth”

Ivan Villavicencio I agree that Jesus was created. Which makes him a son of God as opposed to the son of God. Jesus even calls us sisters and brothers... by Bible reports.

In God We Trust Yet in Greek God and god is present in Scripture. John 1 : 1 doesnt prove Jesus is God especially when you got the Genesis time frame as well as the time frame of other events all lumped together in John 1. Try explaining John 1 : 3 and 4 if you think Jesus is God. That being said, JWs don't believe Jesus is God nor do any Non Triniarian. Look up John 1 : 1 in Hebrew and Greek. God = θεόν (Uppercase G) god = θεὸς (Lowercase g) The Word = ό λόγος Word = λόγος Other examples Jesus = Ἰησοῦν Christ = Χριστόν Jesus Christ = Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν ( ישו Hebrew) Lastly, God cannot Anoint himself, hence the title Christ meaning Anointed one and second, Jesus did claim he has a God in Scripture and in his own words.

Zoll In that case, doesn't it mean that the writer of Book of John "present" Jesus as another God beside the YHWH to the people?

PN S No, if you understand it clearly you'd understand what John is trying to convey, but I see what you are getting at, but a minor misunderstanding of scripture can quickly mislead any man who does not study the bible and or apply biblical hermeneutics totally when interpreting. John himself knows that God Yahweh/Jehovah and Jesus Christ are two different people from each other and John didn't shy away from the very laws of which the Jews were under, an example would be when The Jews challenged Jesus and was about to stone him, Jesus mentioned, quoted from the Old Testament that all people, including born Jews like himself, written in law are gods too (not God himself or themselves). Cross reference points to Psalms 82 : 6. For Jesus quoted this because the Jews charged him with making himself a god. At Psalms 82 : 6 God himself says about the sons of God I said you are gods by implication that makes each of these man a god. I said, Ye are gods*, And all of you sons of the Most High. * godlike ones We see in Johm 10 : 34, 35 Jesus quoting of which that is written in the law of the Jews itself. Similar to what was mentioned, by Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians 8 : 5 (First Epistles to the Corinthians), which cross references to what Jesus Christ had said, as well as what God the Father had said. (Also check out Psalms 82 : 1 for sons of the Most High in the heavens Angels/Spirit Beings are mentioned as gods/godlike ones). So in short Jesus, a born Jew of a woman, a man born into the law, Galatians 4 : 4, is considered a god and or among godlike ones just like his counterparts, but when it comes to God the Father he is the one and only True God, in this sense A God above gods (consisting of men, angels/spirit beings, etc), so to speak. Another thing to note in the gospel of john regarding one of Jesus' rare conversations, but in this, a man named Nicodemus, who was well aware that Jesus was the son of God who came from God himself and or has been sent by God. Nicodemus was also the same man who played a role in the burial of Jesus Christ.

that was mistranslated "and the word was a god" according to jws

na' ah mean? Actually "a god" or "was god" predates the Jehovah's Witnesses. Its called the Sahidic Copic Text. In fact the earliest prior to the Coptic Text is 1808 whereas "a god" (divine) was used. You Westerners are so misinformed.

Do you know what is the fallacy of false dilema?....suggesting that there is only two options or Jesus was merely a human or He was the God almghty and also son of God almighy basically Jesus is his own father is a false dilema....but JWs have a third option found in the bible extremely logical ...Jesus been the human name given to the Angel of the Lord we see thruough the bible and later revealed been Michael the great prince depicted in Daniel 12:1-2, read the OT complete and you will learn that angels are sons of God almighty (Job 1:6 and 2:1) also they are called gods in Psalms 82:1-6,also will see the most powerful angel doing things and when you reach to the NT then the last book Revelation will make you head explote due to how many times Jesus is depicted as the most powerful angel or Son of God almighty

Neil Pittsley John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 8 24 Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.” John 5 23 23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him Philippians 2:9-11King James Version (KJV) 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. revelation 1:17 17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, “Fear not, I am the first and the last, 18 and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades. John 51-56 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” 52 The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” 53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56 Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.

Neil Pittsley something wrong with that.Nobody knows everything and sometimes you have to research.

Malcom Jones I recently finished a large document to help witness to the Jehovah's Witnesses if you would like I can send it to you

Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. (John 5:18; 10:30-33) However, Jesus never claimed to be on the same level as Almighty God. He said: “The Father is greater than I am.”-John 14:28. Jesus’ early followers did not view him as being equal to Almighty God. For example, the apostle Paul wrote that after Jesus was resurrected, God “exalted him [Jesus] to a superior position.” Obviously, Paul did not believe that Jesus was Almighty God. Otherwise, how could God exalt Jesus to a superior position? -Philippians 2:9.

Jesus is a god but not Jehovah God like a human father and son are man but not the same man.

@MakeLemonade you are so right organization but what does it mean? Body of people! Those with the same goal! Receive instruction together! " love among themselves " my disciples" you will know them" God's mountain (house) will above the hills and mountains( other organizations political or religious ) " these people will say come with us to Jehovah's mountain and he will instruct us" faithful and discreet slave or steward? Not one or two but it is a composite body that makes one. To give food at the proper time" great crowd, other sheep, little flock under One Shepherd ". Pioneer? A person who goes ahead, front-runner, explorer of the territory. Set a high standard for others to follow. All fits the Son of Man, son of God Jesus. His appointed apostles and disciples. Like Charles Taze Russell. He wasn't afraid to take on the apostate Christendom and it's teaching. He was not silent about what they saw from the scriptures. And was not quite about his understanding of the 2,520 years that ended in 1914. And even today the certain ones still try to slander this Pioneer and say " his prediction was wrong" there was no prediction. It was an understanding of Bible prophecy. Pioneers follow those that follow the Christ. Do Pioneers have more of Jehovah's holy spirit than others? Jesus answers " asking his father for it" as long as we ask for it he gives it in my name". Jehovah has power and beyond, unlimited Dynamic energy". He gives it freely to those who wants, ask and deserve it.

MakeLemonade you come and knock on my door and I’ll tell you! I probably have to wait 144000 years for that 🚀

@MakeLemonade No! Angry Apostate I never deal with. Go, and wait!

@MakeLemonade i can help you in your understanding. It will take a lil humility from both of us. Born again? Flesh and blood cannot enter heaven. Jesus at his death and then his Resurrection to heavenly life as a spirit person. There is no such thing in our sinful, imperfect, sickly dying body can sin be washed away. That is our punishment for disobedience. Adam has dented and stained all with sin and death. A person can put away the things he once practiced, put on the new personality, and turn his life around. Live a clean life but still have sin. Jesus will do away with sin and death. Death is the last enemy that Jesus will end. You mentioned the scriptural 144000 that was brought from the earth Yes. They are the only ones that was seen by John on Mount Zion with Jehovah God and Jesus. Having both names written in their foreheads. Even them while they live on this earth they are still like you and I. Not practice sin but still a sinner. Recognizing they like us need to have a relationship with Jehovah and pray in Jesus name. We all need forgiveness. No human can will themselves into that position to see Jehovah and serve as Kings with Jesus. It's NO emotional feeling. A person knows that he or she is of that number. Yes I would love to see Jehovah and Jesus Christ, but I'm also glad that I'm not chosen. I'm looking forward to seeing my dad and mom, on this earth, that will be like Eden. A worldwide Paradise!

@MakeLemonade you don't have to call them THEY. I'm One of those. So, you are born Again? So these 144000 persons that John saw on Mount Zion with Jesus, you are on of them? That means you have been born with water and spirit and begotten. You are a son of God? Jehovah himself has given you his spirit and have bear witness with you of that. That means you are a new creation. The Israel of God. You are going to rule as a King and Priest along with Jesus for the healing of mankind. The ones on the earth Jonn saw " a great crowd " on the earth. They've survive the coming Great Tribulation. They owe salvation to our God and to the Lamb. So your born againisum puts you in a special class. You've followed the Lamb where he goes and you sing a song that no one can sing but the 144000 that have been brought from the earth. That also means that you have to die! Humans can't enter into the Spirit Realm Of Heaven. You will see Jehovah GOD! You will see Jesus Christ as King. And you will see Jesus how he carries out Jehovah's will. So I can picture you pouting, mad because you see Jehovah as God. Pouting with your arms folded, cause you don't want them Jehovahs to be right! How foolish you're looking with you bottom spirit lip stuck out! You hear aloud voice " step forward! What is WRONG WITH YOU? OH WAIT A MINUTE JESUS! I RECOGNIZE THAT ONE RIGHT THERE! FOUGHT ME ALL THE WAY BY FIGHTING against MY WITNESSES! CALLING THEM NAMES AND SPEAKING AGAINST MY TRUTH, HATING MY ORGANIZATION! DID YOU NOT KNOW? DID YOU NOT READ YOUR BIBLE? DO NOT LOOK AWAY! LOOK INTO JESUS BEAMING EYES! 🤤

“I am Christ”: Many false prophets will come forward claiming to be messiahs and deliverers, offering themselves as the solution to the world’s problems. Some will even claim to be Christ Himself. The number of false christ’s will increase as the end nears (Matt. 24:23-24).

God the Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit. We are all trinities. We are spirits, we have souls ( Which is our mind, our will, and our emotions ) and we live in bodies. www1.cbn.com/questions/what-are-the-three-parts-of-man

Calvin B said: “John 1:1 does not prove the Trinity...” Even though it says: “In the beginning was [Jesus], and [Jesus] was with God, and [Jesus] was God.” Let me repeat that: “In the beginning... [Jesus] was God.” “Jesus was God.” *“Jesus* was *God.”* *“JESUS* was *GOD.”* *“Iēsous [Heb. origin-Yeshuah] ēn to theos.”-“Jehovah, thou wast the Deity.”* When was he “the God?” In the beginning! _He continues..._ “John 1:1 does not prove the Trinity anymore than me saying ‘In the beginning -of this conversation- was me, and I was with my wife, and my wife was me.’ It's obvious I'm not my wife, and she's not me.” First off: You are your wife and your wife is you. You are both one flesh. “And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.” (Mark 10:8) Second: The last part of that comment shows that John 1:1 doesn't _actually_ mean what it says. Do you believe that “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God...” (II Timothy 3:16)? Do you believe that it was “GOD, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake... by the prophets,” (Hebrews 1:1)? Do you believe that “...holy men of God spake _as they were_ moved by the Holy Ghost.” (II Peter 1:21)? Do you believe that “...[God's] word is truth” (John 17:17)? If you _do,_ then you believe that the Bible-the _whole_ Bible-is inspired by a perfect God, and thus is all correct and all perfect in 100% harmony and no contradictions with any other verse. The Bible says: “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” (Psalm 12:6-7) If this is the case, which it obviously is, then we have the perfect word of God today, and if God gave us _his_ perfect word, then why would it be open to private interpretation? The simple answer is found in II Peter 1:20: “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” Strong's Greek Dictionary defines the word “prophecy” in this verse as simply: “a _prediction_ (scriptural or other).” If you're one that says “The prophecy OF the Scriptures; not the Scriptures as a whole,” then consider this: God's word being eternally preserved for us is a prediction. Therefore, every word being preserved in it is also a prediction. If you're one of those who only believes the New Testament, then consider this: “...the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.” (I Timothy 3:15) "...[God's] word is truth.” (John 17:17) “[Jesus is] the way, the truth...” (John 14:6) Strong's Greek Dictionary defines the word “the” (Greek-“to”) as: “the definite article; _the”_ The feminine usage (“she” [Greek-“ho”]) and the neuter usage (“hē”) are also used and translated as “he (subjective), she (subjective), it (subjective), him (objective), her (objective), it (objective),” etc. But the word “the” remains “to” and is translated as “the, this, that.” It's fourth translation is “one.” Webster's 1828 Dictionary Definition of “one” is: “Single in number; individual; as _one_ man; _one_ book. There is _one_ sun only in our system of planets.” And, going back to the Greek, the word “one” again is “to” meaning “the.” Thus, the word “the” is equivalent to the singular “one and only.” Therefore, we know that when Jesus says he is “the” truth, he is the “only” truth. So, God's true word must also be Jesus' true word, and Jesus' true word God's true word. Doesn't the Bible say in John 1:1 that Jesus is the living “Word?” Revelation calls him “The Word of God.” Therefore, if the church is the pillar and ground of THE THE THE *“ONLY”* truth, they're the pillar and ground of both Jesus and his word. The church will always exist until Jesus takes it out, as Matthew 16:18 says “...the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Therefore, his word will be preserved. And if Jesus is perfect (I Peter 1:21-22), then his word must also be perfect, as they are one and the same. And if Jesus is eternal (Isaiah 9:6 “everlasting Father”) then his word is as well. Now the Bible says miracles would cease when that which is perfect was come in I Corinthians 13. After that, only faith, hope, and love would remain. This can't be Jesus or his 1,000-year kingdom, as the Bible says when that is come, only love will remain. Therefore, that which is perfect is the perfect Law of Liberty of James 1:25 and James 2:12. The word “perfect” in describing the perfect law of liberty is τέλειος (“teleios”). Strong's Greek Dictionary defines it as simply: _“complete_ (in various applications...) _completeness.”_ We don't see miracles today. Therefore, the word of God is _already_ complete. It's simply been translated from ancient Hebrew, Chaldee and Koine Greek into English. It's very clear now that we still have God's preserved word with us today. It's been translated into English several times, and the most accurate translation took place in 1604 when King James commanded apx. forty Episcopal language scholors from universities that only the very best of the best could attend. And they were not only trained in Ancient Hebrew, as many claim, but in many other languages as well. Let me restate: They were the best. All forty of them translated the Bible from it's original languages using the Textus Receptus and other translated Bibles, and, over the course of five years (1604-1609), they translated it. Then they looked over it again for an additional two years to ensure it was correct. Finally, when it was completed in 1611, it was named “The Holy Bible, Conteyning the Old Testament, and the New,” and it was given to the people free of charge. Now that we have the completed word of God, we can look into the original Greek language and see what the meaning of the words used in the original New Testament are. In John 1:1, the word “God” is the same all three times, thus saying specifically: “Jesus was God,” _or,_ “Jehovah, thou wast the Deity.” And since we have the preserved word of God, translated into English, Authored by God himself, do you think there'd be any “errors” in the Bible? Not if “the holy spirit spake” and “God inspired.” Otherwise God is imperfect, which is not the case. Furthermore, I Corinthians 14:33 says: “For God is not the author of confusion...” If there are any errors, additions, or subtractions in his word, then he _is_ the Author of confusion, which is not the case. So, The Bible is infallible, as Jesus is infallible. I say all that to say this: If the Bible says something, *_the Bible means it,_* because it's really the words of God. Therefore, all of it is 100% true and accurate with no contradictions. So, since now we know that John 1:1 in Koine Greek really says “Jehovah, thou wast the Deity,” you can be assured that this is what it means, no errors, no contradictions, end of story. Some like to say an error in translation was made, and that it _should_ say “In the beginning... the Word was *a* god.” However, that goes directly against Isaiah 44:8: “...Is there a God beside me? yea, _there is_ no God; I know not _any.”_ God made sure to use the Hebrew “elowahh” for “God” here instead of his name “elohyim.” “Elowahh” is defined by Strong's Greek Dictionary as: “a _deity_ or the _Deity.”_ He makes sure to say “there is no deity beside me.” Since the Bible does not contradict itself, John 1:1 isn't mis-translated. De Trinitate also references this verse many times word-for-word. Now no doctrinal verse in the Bible will stand alone, so are there any other verses that say that Jesus is God? Yes! The following verses prove Jesus is God: *I John **5:20* “And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, _even_ in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.” *Zechariah 12:1 and 10* “The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, *saith the LORD,* which stretcheth forth the heavens... And I will pour upon the house of David [the Jews], and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me *whom they have pierced,* and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.” This word “LORD” in Hebrew is יהוה (“Yehôvâh”); the same as “Jehovah,” which we all know is God. Problem: The Jews pierced the hands and feet of _Jesus,_ so how does that work out unless Jehovah is Jesus? Well, what does “Jesus” (Heb. origin-“Yeshua”) mean? “Jehovah saves.” *Isaiah 9:6* “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, *The mighty God,* The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” You said that this says “mighty God,” but not the “Almighty God.” Consider then *Revelation 1:8* “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, *the Almighty.”* *Revelation 21:6-7* “And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and *I will be his God,* and he shall be my son.” *Hebrews 1:1 and 8* “GOD, who... spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, But unto the Son _he saith,_ Thy throne, *O God,* _is_ for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness _is_ the sceptre of thy kingdom.” By now it should be very clear that Jesus is God.

Arius tried to deny Jesus was God - Early Church got mad - Constantine orderd a thorough debate among scholars - Arius lost - Constantine "imposed" Trinity Doctrine on a Trinitarian Early Church - WT changes that historical fact - WT Imposes their Doctrine without Scholars or Debate -agreed ? ?

Interesting, though this raises an even bigger question; If Jesus is GOD, then who do we say the GOD of Jesus is in heaven at this time?

who is he to speak and have his words fulfilled, If The YEHOVA ELoHIM HAS Not Commanded? ~ Lamentations Jeremiah 3:37 HIS NOT: lord god mod jesus mesus: They Will Call On MY NAME, And I Will ANSWER Them: I Will Say, ‘They Are MY People,’ And They Will Say, The YEHOVA Is Our ELoHIM. ~ Zechariah 13:9 HIS Name Is “YEHOVA SAPAVOVT:” HIS ELoHIM The Most HigH Our Mighty Creator: Glory To The Alpha And Omega: Glory In The Highest Our ELoHIM And Savior: Glory To The Lion Of Judah: Praise YAH, YEHOVA, HalleluYAH: Moreover Most HigH Said To Moses, “ Thus You Shall Say To The Children Of Israel: ‘ The YEHOVA ELoHIM Of Your Fathers, The ELoHIM Of Abraham, The ELoHIM Of Isaac, And The ELoHIM Of Jacob, Has Sent Me To You. This Is MY NAME Forever, And This Is MY Memorial To All Generations. ~ Exodus 3:15 Because He Has Affection For ME, I Will Rescue Him. I Will Protect Him Because He Knows MY NAME. ~ Psalm 91:14 The Wise Will See YOUR NAME; ~ Micah 6:9 Be Proud Of HIS HOLY NAME: ~ Psalm 105:3 “You Must Not Take Up The Name Of YEHOVA Your EloHIM In A Worthless Way, For YEHOVA Will Not Leave Unpunished The One Who Takes Up HIS Name In A Worthless Way.” ~ Exodus 20:7 I Have Been "YEHOVA" Your CreatoR Ever Since The Land Of Egypt; You Know No CreatoR But ME, And No SavioR Exists Besides ME. ~ Hosea 13:4 And Everyone Who Calls On The Name Of YEHOVA Will Be Saved.”’ ~ Acts 2:21 There Is No One Who Calls YOUR NAME; To Wake Up And Find Strength In YOU. ~ Isaiah 64:7 YEHOVA Is The Same Forever: ELOHIM NAME Can’t Translated: >Names Never Translate. Your Name Is The Same In Every Language In The World.

Jesus is God in the flesh. Read Isaiah 9:6 and believe that Jesus himself is the Creator. The name of Jesus is above any other name and He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. God bless you

No food for thought required as nothing perplexing about Jesus being called Mighty God. Did you ignore the beginning of Is 9:6 for it says *And his name shall be called* So it’s a reference to a title, office or name not an ontological status. Now if you can show a text stating in any manner Jesus *is* Almighty God then you have something.

Col. 1:15-17 Jesus is the Creator.
