I guess you missed this part.
John 14:9 He who has seen Me has seen the Father;
Even the NWT admits that Jesus is God.
NWT John 20 Thomas said to him: “My Lord and my God!
Thomas knew Jesus!
John couldn't have said it any clearer! "The Word was God".
I didn't miss that part at John 14:9 but thus objects a trinitarian, by saying are you not forgetting what Jesus said to the apostle Philip? What was that? This: “Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father.” John 14:9 AV Ah, yes, but that is far different from Jesus’ saying, ‘I am the Father.’ Jesus had just told Philip and the other faithful apostles that he was going away to God his Father; and so how could Jesus in the same breath say that Philip, when looking at Jesus, was looking at the Father? Jesus could not have meant that, for he dissociated God his Father from himself, just as when he said: “Ye believe in God, believe also in me.” John 14:1 AV Why the expression “also in me,” if Jesus were God himself? Philip asked Jesus: “Lord, shew us the Father,” and Jesus answered that that was what he had been doing all along, namely, showing them the Father. He had been explaining who his heavenly Father was. He had been showing them what his heavenly Father was like. He imitated his Father. He was like him, so much so that when one saw Jesus it was as if seeing his Father.
By saying: “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father,” Jesus could not have meant that the apostles were seeing God, the One whom Jesus addressed or spoke of as Father. Many years after Jesus said those words, the apostle John wrote: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. . . . grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.John 1:14, 17, 18 AV By thus declaring God his Father, by explaining him, by giving an account of him, by being and acting like him, Jesus produced the effect that the apostles, by seeing Jesus, saw God his Father also.
Hence Jesus said to the Jews: “The Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.” John 5:37 AV But those Jews did see Jesus’ shape and hear his voice. Also, Jesus told them that if they had believed the prophet Moses they would also have believed him; and Jesus knew from Moses’ writings that God had said to Moses up in the mountain: “Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.” EX.33:20 AV But those Jews did see Jesus and live, which proved that Jesus was not God. So John 14:9 also fails to prove that Jesus is God.
No the NWT doesn't admit Jesus is God, but there you go twisting things again. JW don't take two or three scriptures and hang a doctrine on it. We take all the scriptures that talk about who Jesus is. It seems to me that you think Thomas to be an idiot, but he wasn't. Thomas knew that even though he exclaimed, "My Lord and My God" after he felt the wounds on Jesus feet and hands and side that Jesus had told Mary when she was there the morning Jesus had been resurrected told her to tell his Apostles which included Thomas that he(Jesus) was going to his Father and their(Apostles) Father , his God and their God.
