    Indeed, John 13:16 is talking about Jesus being the Lord of the disciples and not what you interpreted it to be.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    The way to life is narrow (Matthew 7:13-14, John 14:6) and He is the light of the world (John 1:9, John 8:12) The Bible says that the Word (the Logos) was God, in John 1:1. If God was the Logos, it still does not contradict the fact that God, being the Logos, is a Person!

    The Problem With The Trinity

    I do not mind that you think that I am narrow-minded. Jesus said that the way to life is narrow (Matthew 7:13-14). Now Ephesians 4:5 says nothing about another Lord that God made for believers to trust. It says that there is one Lord period. The only Lord God (Jude 1:4). Can you say, "Jesus...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Keeping it simple for now... You said: I certainly would like it for you to be saved...however John 8:24 tells me that if you were to die tonight without acknowledging that Jesus is the Lord as defined by Mark 12:29 (kjv), it would be in your sins...therefore I continue to attempt to convince...

    It was the belief of the apostle John, which he penned under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost. Yes, Jesus is subordinate to the Father as being the continuation of Him in human flesh because He Himself came to set the example of what it means to be a subject of the kingdom. Indeed, Jesus...

    "We all be the same...tell me why, tell me why, we're divided...?"

    Sound doctrine is important. 1 Timothy 4:16, 2 Timothy 4:1-5, John 17:17. It is more important than unity (1 Corinthians 11:19); to the extent that any unity we may have is only valid if it is based in sound doctrine (1 Corinthians 1:10, Romans 15:5-6, Philippians 2:1-4).

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Furthermore, Jesus Christ is the Lord and the Father is the Lord (Matthew 11:25, Luke 10:21, 1 Corinthians 12:3) and there is only one Lord (Ephesians 4:5). It is written (Jude 1:3-4) that false teachers, in the last days, will reject the only Lord God even our Lord Jesus Christ. There is...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    You didn't answer the question. If it is sinking sand that He interprets that the Logos is a Person, you have to show us how it is that God Himself is not a Person. Jesus is the sure foundation...and He is the Everlasting Father and The Mighty God (Jehovah...Psalms 50:1). Your only way out...

    You are interpreting the scripture based on your preconceived bias. Also, Have you considered that in calling YHWH His Father, Jesus was making Himself equal with God according to the apostle John (in John 5:18)?

    Yes; I have heard that John was placed in a cauldron of boiling oil; but that it didn't kill him as expected: and he was subsequently banished to Patmos. I saw a Christian movie once that showed how they rescued John from Patmos so that he might live in Ephesus.

    How do you define the matter? If Jesus is the Son of God, then His name shall be called The Mighty God and The Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6). And the fact that His name is called The Mighty God indicates to me that He is YHWH, Jehovah God (see Psalms 50:1).

    So, in other words, you deny it. I won't reiterate what that means concerning the spirit that you carry as it is written in 1 John 4:1-3 and 2 John 1:7; because I think that you already know what that is. You should check out Luke 24:39, Luke 24:41-43, Acts of the Apostles 1:11, Matthew...

    He is only seventeen and would have no knowledge at his age of who those translators were. But if you have the information, perhaps you should let us know who they were and why they weren't worthy to translate that bible into existence. Because I recall in studying this, while I don't remember...

    He does say in verse 4 that to make your voice be heard on high is a valid reason for fasting.

    It is the New World Translation that identifies Jesus as a god in John 1:1, thus we say it is a belief of the jw's, since they hold that translation authoritative above those translations that are true and of the ultimate authority.

    would you be happy if i dropped the whole jw religon and convert to any other denom. ?

    What is the name that is above every other name? Jehovah or Jesus? Philippians 2:9-11, Wherefore God hath highly exalted him, and given him a name that is above every other name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in the earth, and things under...
