    Analyzing Jehovah's Witnesses

    To even hint that punctuation can be precisely determined at Luke 23:43 is totally false. We see The Emphasized Bible by Joseph B. Rotherham also punctuating this scripture to produce a probable alternate to the tradition of the KJV: "Verily I say unto thee this day: With me shalt thou be in...

    Analyzing Jehovah's Witnesses (post #30) by r1xix: "Over last month or so I've been reading up on JWs and exJWs on Reddit and I AM AMAZED at how little Bible they know and how they hate GOD and Jesus!" T2: Evidence please. I've been a JW for 40+ years and have seen only the opposite! "The...

    Analyzing Jehovah's Witnesses

    "The way I see it: the Society has two options. Either the apostle Thomas knew what he was doing when he addressed Jesus as his god, or he meant to say something else." There are at least two explanations. You may have guessed that the term "addressed" has something to do with one of them...

    True Trinity.

    The 'Great' I AM The Gospel writers have clearly shown Jesus applying the term ego eimi to himself and meaning “I am the Christ.” Mark 13:6 shows Jesus saying, “I am he [literally just ego eimi, ‘I AM’]” - NEB. The parallel account at Luke 21:8 agrees. But the other parallel account by Matthew...

    Isaiah 9:6

    JBF wrote: "I hold to the kjv, which calls Him the everlasting Father." ...................... The KJV says "his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor...."

    Isaiah 9:6

    JBF wrote in another thread here: "If Jesus said that He is the Son of God, then He is claiming to be the mighty God; ... and the everlasting Father (...Isaiah 9:6)." Is. 9:6 is usually translated in trinitarian-translated Bibles as: “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us...

    True Trinity.

    Personal names (including 'Immanuel') Many trinitarians will tell you that, since the personal name “Jesus” (probably “Yehoshua” in Hebrew) means “Jehovah is Salvation” (or “Jehovah Saves”), then Jesus is Jehovah. If that were true, then all the other people in the Bible whose names had that...

    True Trinity.

    "The only name of God is Jesus"?? Then how is it that one who is God alone declares His name to be YHWH hundreds of times in the OT? And His followers call his name YHWH thousands of times in the OT? YHWH is not the Hebrew word for 'Lord' (ADN) and is clearly mistranslated as 'LORD' thousands...

    Is. 45:11 is speaking of YHWH (LORD/Jehovah) as the creator of Israel: Is. 45:11 - "The LORD is the Holy One of Israel. He made them. He says to them," NIRV. "This is what the LORD says— the Holy One of Israel, and its Maker:" - NIV, Cf. AT; CSB; CEB; CEV; ERV; EHV; EXB; HCSB; LEB; Moffatt...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    Isaiah 9:6 All Christians, I believe, accept the son of Is. 9:6 as being the Christ. Some will tell you that since the meaning of this symbolic name includes the words “Mighty God, Eternal Father,” then Jesus is the Mighty God and the Eternal Father.” But there are at least two other ways...
