So, the Samaritans believed their human statues were YHWH. How is this different than the trinity?
Is the New World Translation a valid version of the Bible?

Well, since the Bible clearly teaches Father, Son and Holy Spirit are God of the Bible, what else needs to be said?

That changes depending on the breeze. Paul & others were said to have been resurrected to heaven in 1918-19. Fairly recently, I believe that was changed to they aren't sure when. I think they believe their elite members go to heaven at death.
They taught that Russell was directed them from heaven at one point.
Samaritans considered themselves the heirs of the northern tribes of Israel, worshipping the God of Israel. The Judeans considered them illegitimate foreigners because of the intermixing, but they themselves saw themselves as true believers in the God of Israel. The issue was place of worship. God had specified that Jerusalem was the place where his “name dwelt” and only there could he be worshipped. They rejected this to worship God in their own temple at Shechem. That doesn't sound like a major theological issue to us, but it was to them.

But not the obsession with death.
This has nothing to do with the real Samaritans of the biblical narrative and of the 1st century who used human models to worship YHWH.

Well physical death is how they can pay for their own sins to be given a sinless resurrection--
in order to earn life over 1000 yrs.
Ok you lost me. No worries.
In your delusions perhaps. There are many which put the father and holy ghost together but separate the son from the father. Perhaps, it is easier for the mentally retarded to believe in Greek gods, but they are confused by the trinity concept.
So people who believe Jesus is God are "mentally retarded"? No wonder you said you're like JW's!
Poor Thomas. And he was taught directly by Jesus.
John 20 Thomas said to Jesus, "My Lord and my God"!
Got plenty more Scriptures.

It was an analogy, because truly retarded humans don't understand the trinity or Calvinism.
A nonproof. Ha Ha Ha. It would be morelike, my lord and God or my God lord.
"ὁ κύριός μου καὶ ὁ θεός μου" it does not convey. Notice the doubling of mou
. Also, the Greek kai is not conducive to gluing different objects together.
So, perfectly clear Bible doesn't prove anything to you.
Col 1 By Jesus all things were created!
Got plenty more!
You know anything about it. It has been going on for 2000 years. It didn't start with English under Tyndale.
Is it coincidence that you attack the Bible much like JW's? No wonder you admitted you're like JW's.
