    Questions about JW’s

    Again you do not answer my questions, why can you not see something is not right with your doctrine that you cannot even confirm what the Bible plainly states. You state to me “[there] are many gods but only one God. Many fakes but only one genuine article”, you seem to claim that the ‘gods’...

    Questions about JW’s

    It appears you are not here for honest discussion, you're simply fighting the bible with the bible which is good for nothing. If you wish to engage with me please pick a scripture or two that you think best supports what you say and we can both discuss it civilly, and not like bible bashers.

    Questions about JW’s

    You do not seem like you are up for an honest and upbuilding discussion Absolutely, it seems like you have much hate for JW's despite the fact we as Christians were told to love everyone, even our enemies and to treat people the way we want to be treated. Hopefully I'm wrong. I don't...

    The Greek word there is 'haššāmayim' (STRONGS 8064: shamayim) and can either be translated heavens or heaven in Genesis 1:1, some translations have heavens, whilst others have heaven, it really doesn't matter which one. What you've said doesn't change anything I've said, the Genesis account is...

    Questions about JW’s

    As I expressed in my previous post, Jesus using the expression "I am he" (ego emi) was either an expression of him confirming messiahship, as he did in John 4:25,26, or confirming a particular point to a specific topic of discussion. Nothing you posted goes contrary to what, I've again, just said.

    Questions about JW’s

    When John mentioned the 'beginning' in John 1:1 he was referring to the 'beginning' mentioned in Gen 1:1, and the 'beginning' mentioned in Genesis referred to the creation of the earth and its heaven, it was not referring to the creation of the entire universe. So the word/Jesus being with God...

    Questions about JW’s

    The scholarly community refuses to accept this verse as original and agrees that it is spurious, this is well documented. What you just posted is a perversion of God's word, most Christians, even the ones on here probably agree with me on this one.

    Questions about JW’s

    He was speaking of his messiahship when he stated this, it was not in regards to his deity, he used the same phrase he used in John 4:25,26 when claiming to be the Messiah.

    Questions about JW’s

    Isaiah 44:26 states "I stretched out the heavens by myself, And I spread out the earth. Who was with me?", here God is expressing that he was alone when making the heavens and the earth, by his statement "who was with me" he was claiming no one was there, so I'll ask you this, were the angels...

    Questions about JW’s

    All Greek manuscripts prior to the 6th century were written in either ‘uncial’ or ‘majuscule’, that meant all letters were written with all capital letters, this is irrefutable, to deny this would be to deny all Greek manuscripts prior to the 6th century. Manuscripts written in ‘miniscule’ only...

    Questions about JW’s

    Your beliefs must be in harmony with scripture, you yourself cannot explain why scriptures call others gods, whilst other scripture states there is only 'one God', and thus result in ignoring scripture I'm showing you and answering my simple question. I'm not asking for much, all I'm doing is...

    Questions about JW’s

    Answer these simple questions truthfully and you'll have put to rest what needs to be put to rest: Is Satan called "the god of this world" according to 2 Cor 4:4? Was Moses "God to Pharaoh" according to Exo 7:1? Are angels called Elohim/gods according to Psalms 8:5 compared to Hebrews 2:7...

    You are mistaken, I'm not offended by what you said, I was saddened by the fact that you are so lost you can only result to mock and make backhanded comments, even now you pretend that you are sincere but you speak with a passive-aggressive undertone by comments such as 'truth can come with a...

    Questions about JW’s

    I forgot to address the other two points you made, you said, "The (false) Jesus that the JWs proclaim is not the only true God (by their admission), and therefore has neither power to forgive sin nor resurrect from the grave". Jesus didn't need to be God to forgive sins or to resurrect people...

    Questions about JW’s

    Jehovah's Witnesses are not forbidden to take blood transfusions, nor do they base it on the word "blood" used in the parable of "drinking the blood of men". They are told it is up to their Christian conscience whether or not accepting a blood transfusion goes contrary to God's word. The main...

    Questions about JW’s

    JW's and I do believe Jesus is God, but in a certain sense, scripture makes it clear that he is (John 20:28, Is 9:6, Hebrews 1:8), we simply do not accept him as the 'one God'. As I've already stated on this thread, we only see the Father as the 'one God', Paul himself does not include Jesus in...

    Questions about JW’s

    The meaning of the word 'God' in English has somewhat of a different meaning as the term 'God' in ancient Hebrew and Greek. In the original languages the term 'God' had a secondary meaning that could be applied to other beings who were, powerful, mighty, divinely appointed or falsely worshipped...

    I feel sad that me asking you the simplest of things results in you being rude to me for now reason. I have no issue with you claiming 'Christian' means what you say it means, just don't tell me I'm wrong with my understanding of the term, it becomes a different matter when you keep asserting...

    I'm aware Thayer was a unitarian, I don't get how changed anything I said? Good question, I have to explain quite a bit in order to properly answer your question. What many people fail to see with Isaiah 44:24 is that the sentiments being expressed in the verse regarding God creating the...
