    Non-Trinitarians, Please Answer This

    ReChoired - too many different things to reply to. I'll just respond to your first three scriptures. 1 John 5:7-8 is provably spurious and nearly all trinitarian scholars agree. Zechariah 3:1-2. Sorry, I don't see any relevance. Is. 48:16 - Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not...

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    ............................................................................ Post of a trinitarian apologist to me: “The clearest example in the NT of the use of "God" for Jesus, Jn 20:28. Jesus is addressed as God (ho theos mou). The scene is designed to serve as a climax to the Gospel; as the...

    Question For JW's

    ..................................... So, Rev. 21:8 is untrue? Notice that it includes all the liars. You would keep all these in your congregation? ........................................ "The right to excommunicate is an immediate and necessary consequence of the fact that the Church is a...

    Question For JW's

    ............... It started after Christians decided to eliminate most of their Jewish heritage. Probably around 135 A.D. when the Bar Kochba revolt persecuted and killed those in the Christian sect for not participating in the revolt. The name was clearly in all the OT Hebrew manuscripts and...

    Question For JW's

    Just examine the American Standard Version, for example. BibleGateway - Keyword Search: jehovah From Preface to the ASV: 1. The change first recommended in the Appendix - that which substitutes "Jehovah" for "LORD" and "GOD" - is one which will be unwelcome to many, because of the frequency...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    Birthdays JESUS' BIRTHDAY - "Early Christians [from time of Christ until the 4th century] frowned on [celebrating anyone's birthday], which was too closely linked with pagan customs to be given the approval of the church." - How It Started, p. 213. The Christian Book of Why, by Dr. John C...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    EASTER What do the name "Easter," colored eggs, hot-cross buns, and bunnies have to do with honoring Jesus and Jehovah? The very name of this celebration in English ("Easter") is the name of a pagan goddess! Many of the customs originally used in worshiping this ancient European goddess are the...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    .................................................... I wish you would do some actual research. The pronouns when standing alone are as I showed you. When they are part of a compound word, it's the last letter (to the far left) of the word which gives the intended pronoun, Pronomial Suffixes...

    These three are one

    That is a falsehood! I did the research on my own. I have not seen anyone use the same research to the degree I have. The grammar I used was mostly that of Dana and Mantey; A.T. Robertson; Moulton; Moule; and other trinitarians. They don't like what it really says about John 1:1c, but the...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    RN: Your response (#473 above) says a lot about how well you research. There is a personal pronoun for "his" and it is recorded in the most basic OT Hebrew primers: 3. Possessive שלו Shelo “His” / “Its” - A Comprehensive Guide to Hebrew Pronouns (hebrewpod101.com The 'subject' of a...

    These three are one

    ................................................ I can prove that John 1:1c does not mean that the Word was God. But it takes a little effort to understand the grammar John chose to use, so, of course, no trinitarian will make the effort. My first personal (and the lengthiest) study is Search...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    ............................................................................. Isaiah 44:6 Is. 44:6 is a “pronoun confusion” trick. It’s extremely poor, but some trinitarians are actually desperate enough for “evidence” to use it anyway. Is. 44:6 in the American Standard Version (ASV) says...

    .................................................. 1 Timothy 3:16 Noted Bible scholar Dr. Frederick C. Grant writes: “A capital example [of NT manuscript changes] is found in 1 Timothy 3:16, where ‘OS’ (OC or ὃς, ‘who’) was later taken for theta sigma with a bar above, which stood for theos...

    "The word was a god"?

    .................................................... Read vss 63-68. The Jews accused Jesus of claiming to be the Messiah. In verse 64 Jesus admitted it. That is what caused them to say he deserves to die - claiming to be (not God, but) the Christ. The NASB translation is probably better here.
