This is from NWT bible - Leviticus 26:11-12 and John 1:14

"And I will place my tabernacle in your midst, and I will not reject you.
I will walk among you and be your God, and you for your part will be my people."

"So the Word became flesh and resided among us"

The word used for "resided" is:
ἐσκήνωσεν (eskēnōsen)
Verb - Aorist Indicative Active - 3rd Person Singular
Strong's Greek 4637: To dwell as in a tent, encamp, have my tabernacle. From skenos; to tent or encamp, i.e. to occupy or, to reside.
Are you saying Jesus lied at John 17:3, or is the reality you are twisting what is said?

JW's have been SEVERELY brainwashed at the Hall of DARKNESS! They don't even believe their own NWT bible that clearly teaches the Jesus is God and Hell fire is "forever and ever"!

As one JW here recently stated, "Jesus is only with the JW,s."

NWT John 17:3 "This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.

NWT states that Eternal Life is knowing BOTH the Father and the Son.

That means there is no Eternal Life APART from the FATHER AND SON = THEY cannot be separated

So who exactly was it that "resided and walked among us" as declared by the YHWH???

The Father sent Jesus, thus Jesus called-The Father-THE ONLY TRUE GOD. And its 100% why Paul called only the Father God at 1 Cor 8:6--And why Jesus teaches-John 4:22-24-that the true worshippers will worship the FATHER in spirit and truth. When ones teachers do not match Jesus--RUN FROM THEM.

The JW bible clearly teaches that Jesus / Johovah are the same. "Mighty God", "the First and the Last"! NOBODY ELSE! Jesus is God.

The Hebrew word for God throughout Scripture is Elohim which is Plural.

John 4:22 -24 teaches that God is Spirit and True worshippers will worship in Spirit and Truth

So there you go!!! ALL 3 = FATHER SON HOLY SPIRIT

This is from NWT bible - Leviticus 26:11-12 and John 1:14

"And I will place my tabernacle in your midst, and I will not reject you.
I will walk among you and be your God, and you for your part will be my people."

"So the Word became flesh and resided among us"

The word used for "resided" is:
ἐσκήνωσεν (eskēnōsen)
Verb - Aorist Indicative Active - 3rd Person Singular
Strong's Greek 4637: To dwell as in a tent, encamp, have my tabernacle. From skenos; to tent or encamp, i.e. to occupy or, to reside.

Every one who actually looked up facts on that Hebrew word knows 100% for the true God, Elohim translates-The supreme one, or the mighty one.

Absolutely True

Now, what you need to KNOW is why ELOHIM is Plural = as in 3
Truth begins in Genesis = Elohim(Plural) said let Us make man in Our image according to Our likeness." = 3

This is from NWT bible - Leviticus 26:11-12 and John 1:14

"And I will place my tabernacle in your midst, and I will not reject you.
I will walk among you and be your God, and you for your part will be my people."

Yes it can be plural but not for the true God, only for the false trinity gods served by false religions back in the OT days.
Let us=YHVH(Jehovah) and his master worker( Prov 8:30= the one beside God during the creation process.= The being sent by God named Jesus as a mortal.

You are just falling back on church doctrines, what you have been taught. This is understandable as everyone does that.
But you do not have to stay there. We all have to learn things.

Did you slip and fall?

The Official Hebrew for God from Genesis forward is Elohim = PLURAL

So NEVER say something so contrary to the Holy Scripture - unless you want to be Judged that way!

Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.
Do not add to His words,
Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.

That doesn't say he is God. Jesus has a God-John 20:17, Rev 3:12--God does not have a God.

No Hebrew scholar is in agreement with you. They know the language better than any trinitarian view. In the Hebrew language, Elohim is NEVER plural for the true God, For the true God it translates-The supreme one or the mighty one.

YES Hebrew scholars agree with the Holy Scripture that ELOHIM is PLURAL.

i have two friends who are chabad rabbis and YES they AGREE that the Hebrew word Elohim is Plural.

Elohim is spoken as One because the Father/Son/Holy Spirit are ONE Elohim.

Why did the Jews reject YHWH because HE told them His Father is Elohim.

It can be plural, but it is not plural for the true God in the Hebrew language.
