    Thanks. I learned something today.

    Why "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!?"

    The ASV preserves the name of God and makes this Psalm even more beautiful. “Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever. 2 Let Israel now say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever. 3 Let the house of Aaron now say, That his lovingkindness...

    What does Colossians 1:16 mean when it says "For by him were all things created..."

    Jesus emptied himself of what? No verse says he emptied himself of being the Almighty God. Paul was talking about our being humble just as Jesus was. Jesus never thought about grasping (a better translation would be snatching or robbing) equality with God. He emptied himself of being the...

    "The word was a god"?

    I checked several of his references. They were correct. You are accusing Tigger2 of fabrication. He provided many specific references. You need to do the same. Then he can respond.

    Reasons why the Jehovah’s Witness religion is false (Despite my love for them as human beings)

    Hey! This is a thread about hatred for Jehovah’s Witnesses. You need to wait your turn. :)

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    One reason I check in here is to see the how those of the “accepted churches” behave. Jesus said a good tree produces fine fruit. None of us are perfect but the behavior of these zealots is anything but Christlike.

    Well, if J Gordon Melton says so, what more could possibly be said!

    Did Christians invent the Trinity-2

    How did it appear in Jerome’s Latin Vulgate in the 4th century? According to both sources (there are more) it didn’t appear in the original Latin Vulgate. It was added later. And I agree that even if it was in the original manuscript, it would no more prove the trinity than does John 10:30.

    Did Christians invent the Trinity-2

    “The facts are as follows. First, it does not occur in any Greek manuscript earlier than the 14th century. The great manuscripts belong to the 3rd and 4th centuries [most scholars date them to the 4th and 5th centuries], and it occurs in none of them. None of the great early fathers of the...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    Looks like you didn’t want to read 1 Corinthians 15. I’ll give you a glimpse. “So it is with the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised up in incorruption. 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised up in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised up in power. 44 It...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    I think you need to read 1 Corinthians 15. Why can you believe that God sent his spirit Son to earth as an embryo in Mary’s womb but you think it’s impossible for God to resurrect him back as a spirit? This is exactly what Paul writes about and says Jesus was the first fruits of this resurrection.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    None of the scriptures you used say anything that his body had to be resurrected. You are correct that all previous resurrections involved the body. That is why 1 Corinthians 15:20 calls Jesus the first fruits of the resurrection. He was the first one to be “put to death in the flesh but made...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    They would worship a creditor as the Almighty Creator. Of course not. But they might prostrate themselves and do obeisance, just what proskyneo means. Unless it is used regarding the Most High God Jehovah.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    Anyone who accepts and promotes Bible translations that replace the Tetragrammaton with Adonai or Elohim over 6,000 times (with no brackets or italics) has zero credibility to criticize the NWT. Correct that and then we could move on. Take the rafter out of your own eye first would be Jesus’ advice.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    I’m amazed that you think this post supports the trinity.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    No where in scripture is the word begotten applied to someone who has no beginning.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    Please show me in the Bible why it is necessary go believe not just that Jesus was resurrected, but that he was raised physically?

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    I’m curious. Do you actually have the Watchtowers from 1942 or even 1976?

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    Do you like this usage of “worship” in the KJV where it is used toward a human? Matthew 18:26 KJV "The servant therefore fell down and worshipped (proskyneo) him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all." Should we worship humans in the same way we worship God? The Greek has...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    You clearly believe that the Son was brought forth. This is what the Bible teaches. Yet the trinity teaches the three are all coeternal, without beginning. The error is glaring.
