The following quotes show that the doctrine of the Trinity was indeed alive-and-well before the Council of Nicea: Polycarp (70-155/160). Bishop of Smyrna. Disciple of John the Apostle. “O Lord God almighty . . . I bless you and glorify you through the eternal and heavenly high priest Jesus...

JESUS IS JEHOVAH JWs deny that Jesus is Jehovah, maintaining instead that He is a created angel. Although the NT does not say in just so many words, "Jesus is Jehovah," in more than one place it does say that "Jesus is Lord," which is the clearest way the NT could affirm that Jesus is Jehovah...

One possible criticism of this survey would be that it does not consider the arguments JWs would advance in defense of their controversial renderings in the NWT. In reply I must point out that to address such arguments would necessarily mean limiting the examples of mistranslation to just a few...

Similar rewordings are introduced in passages where the simple translation "spirit" or "Spirit" might imply that God's Spirit is a person, contrary to their doctrine that "holy spirit" is God's "active force." So, Jude's description of certain men as "not having the Spirit" is rendered "not...

OMITTING WORDS The NWT also omits key words on occasion, when retaining them in the text would seem to contradict JW doctrine. The most glaring example is Romans 8:1, "Therefore those in union with Christ Jesus have no condemnation," which omits the word "now." This omission is evidently...

ADDING WORDS In Colossians 1:16-20 the word "other" is added four times in the NWT to make it appear that Christ is part of creation. Paul is thus made to say that "all [other] things" were created in and for Christ, as if Christ were one of the created things. It is, of course, legitimate for...

I Timothy 4:1 "The Spirit" changed to "the inspired utterance." This revision attempts to obscure the reality and activity of the Holy Spirit by representing it as a message instead of an entity. (Similar revisions found in 1 John 4:1, 3, 6 with "expression" being utilized in place of...

Galatians 6:18 "Your spirit" changed to "the spirit YOU [show]." Similar to the I Cor. 14 revision above, this one attempts to obscure the reality of the individual human spirit by presenting it more as an attitude of action than an entity. Philippians 1:23 "To depart and be with Christ"...

Romans 2:29 "By the Spirit" changed to "by spirit." Although the definite article 'the" does not literally appear in the Greek, it is implied by the form that (pneuma) appears in. The revision, however, translates pneuma in a more abstract form to evade the reality of the Holy Spirit. (Same...

Matthew 2:11 "Bowed down and worshipped him" changed to "did obeisance to it" The JWs evade recognizing Jesus as worthy of worship as a divine being by altering the form of honor that he receives from men and angels. The Greek word proskuneo literally means "worship." The use of "obeisance" is...

In short, wherever possible, the NWT translates texts that call Jesus God in such a way as to keep the text from making that identification! Genesis 1:2 "Spirit of God" changed to "God's active force." The revision modifies the original noun with a more impersonal form as the JWs reject the...

Colossians 1:16 in the Bible states that Jesus Christ created all things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, through him and for him Adding "other" is stupid stinkly thinking on the so-called translators of the nwt. Four out of the five men on the committee had no Hebrew or Greek...

So what, that is a silly skinky thinking on your part.

Jesus’ Letter to the Church in Sardis 3 “Write this to the angel of the church in Sardis: “Here is a message from the one who has the seven spirits and the seven stars. “I know what you do. People say that you are alive, but really you are dead. 2 Wake up! Make yourselves stronger before what...

I quoted greek scholars that I know are correct. We believe Jesus is fully God and fully human, thus your proof text has no effect. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Timothy+2&version=ERV Revelation 1-3 Easy-to-Read Version John Tells About This Book 1 This is a revelation[a]...
