    Wrong! Try a little research. Or, better yet, try reading all of my post #97.

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    from post #22 above: "The Jehovah’s witnesses focus on a god named Jehovah…..which is funny that they do not know God Father’s name….since their religion is all about God the Father. The fact is that there is no person, place, or thing that starts with J in scriptures, it is all Y’s. And they...

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

    JunChosen #999: "The Scripture is very plain and so true! So why do Unitarians believe NOT the Bible???" ............................ Because "the Bible" is not a translation, but is the NT Greek text. Many additions and thousands of deletions have been made by translators. If we wish to find...

    WHO IS GOD.................?

    ......................................................... Notice the comments concerning this disputed passage found in the respected trinitarian reference work, The Expositor's Greek Testament: It says in a note for 1 John 5:7 (as found in the Received Text and the KJV): "A Latin...

    WHO IS GOD.................?

    ................................................. 1 Tim. 3:16 (“God was manifest in the flesh”) As this is translated in the KJV it makes Paul say that Jesus is God “manifest in the flesh.” Although the KJV translates 1 Tim. 3:16 with “God” as above, nearly all other translations today...

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    It was the generation following the destruction of the Temple which brought about a final rupture between Jews and Christians .... In the third rebellion against Rome [132-135 A.D.], when the Christians were unable to accept bar Kochba as their Messiah, they declared that their kingdom was of...

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    .................................................... Do you know the meaning of "Hallelujah"? Why would this phrase be used for the Father in Rev. 19:1-6 if the name were not to be used by Christians?

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

    All uses of "Lord" as used in address (vocative) in the Gospel of John (and others): Examining the Trinity: KURIE (part 2) Did you find any uses of "Lord" used as nouns of address that were not followed by statements or questions to the individual being made? John 20:28 is not an address to...

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

    John 20:28 is a statement by Thomas who had refused to believe that Jesus had been resurrected. His statement is a phrase without subject or verb and if subject and verb are to be supplied by the translator, it could read “you are My Lord and My God.” It is more likely, however, that it would be...

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    ................................................... It is very clear that although YHWH (Jehovah) is used many thousands of times as God’s personal name throughout the OT by God Himself and His followers, the word ehyeh is used only once (Ex.3:14) for God. The New Bible Dictionary, Douglas...

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

    Echad (‘Plural’ Oneness?) Here is what I have found written about echad by authorities on Biblical Hebrew: The only definition given for echad in the trinitarian New American Standard Exhaustive Concordance is: “a prim[ary] card[inal] number; one”. We find no “plural oneness” there...

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

    Yachid A few trinitarians insist that not only does echad mean “plural oneness,” but that, if singleness were intended by the Bible writer, the Hebrew word yachid (dyxy) would have been used at Deut. 6:4. Here is how it was presented to me by one trinitarian: “The word for...

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Jehovah, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

    “Nevertheless, Exod. 3 does not appear to give a new name for the first time but the explanation of a name known already but now identified as the saving God of Israel....” - The New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology, p. 69, Vol. 2, Zondervan, 1986.

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    .................................................. "I am" at Ex. 3:14 is properly translated as "I will be" (see Ex. 3:12) and is simply a 1st person use of the meaning of His personal name - Examining the Trinity: "I AM" - Part 1 Why would God have YHWH used as his personal name around 7000...

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    Although the original pronunciation was probably Yehowah - see my study here Examining the Trinity: PRONOUNCE (God's Name) - it has become Jehovah in English (because of its going from Hebrew through Latin to Elizabethan English to modern English). See link.

    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    .............................................. “I Am” In its commentary to Exodus 3:14, the JPS Tanakh, Jewish Study Bible, Oxford Edition states: "God's proper name disclosed in the next verse is YHVH (spelled yod-heh-vav-heh. In Heb., in ancient times, the "vav" was pronounced "w"). But...

    Bar Kochba and the Christian use of the Hebrew personal name of God "The Jewish belief that the parting of the ways came not at Stephen’s martyrdom but after Bar Kochba’s war against Hadrian [132-135 A. D.] is now gaining ground. Previously there had been no event sufficiently striking to...

    "The word was a god"?
