    The answer of hell and its origins

    There are a number of biblical texts where Christ is referred to as God where the definite article does appear—though with other qualifiers that distinguish Christ from the Father (John 20:28 and 1 John 5:20, and in most Greek texts, Titus 2:13 and 2 Peter 1:1).

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Twenty times, the New World Translation translates “Theos” without the definite article as “God,” referencing the one true God. (Jn. 1:6, 12, 13, 18; 3:2, 21; 6:45; 8:54; 9:16, 33; 13:3; 16:30; 19:7; 20:17(2); 1 Jn. 3:2; 4:12; 2 Jn. 3, 9; Rev. 21:7). The only places it is not translated as “God”...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Examples: 1- (1 John 1:5 [NIV]) God is light (1 John 1:5 [coptic]) ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲡⲉ (efnouti ou'ou'oini pe) (1 John 1:5 [TR]) ο θεος φως εστιν We see that the Greek word for light (φως) is anarthrous (without article). It is qualitative. We don't translate it "God is a light", but simply "God is...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Google Theos without a definite article means God " We see that θεον (the accusative form of θεος) isn’t preceded by a definite article (τον), and is translated God, even in NWT. Of course, rendering it “No one has ever seen a god” is meaningless. So this is an "Anarthrous theos" referring to...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    " Take for example the word ‘God’ in John 1:6. The definite article is lacking here, just as it is in verse one in the phrase ‘the Word was God’. If the lack of a definite article means there should be an indefinite article, then this passage should be translated something as follows. ‘There...

    Protestants view New Agers as heretics and Catholics view Protestants as heretics

    What exactly do you gain from the NA movement? If it is something like clean air, not polutting the land. There is no problem with that, just use commons sense. If it is worshipping a false god, repent. Since I do not know what you are "borrowing" I will not judge you. Let us know...
