If you think what I posted was a verse, then why can't you tell us what chapter and verse it is?
Stall...
Idiot you posted a verse, but as I said it does not support any Trinity!
Are you really this slow!

Get it now?
Paul
From the cowardice that shrinks from new truth,
From the laziness that is content with half-truths,
From the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth,
Oh God of Truth, deliver us.
~ Ancient Prayer
KNOCK IT OFF. ALL OF YOU.
Don't make me get the paddle.
Its time to start over and stop the bickering.
DON'T MAKE ME GET UP OR YOUR IN TROUBLE, KIDS
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
See, I still know how to do that.
Peace, or else.
Psalm 1[/color] and Job 28:28
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Joh 4:23 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

Here is my wish for you LON! That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him.
Why, do you think it is, that nobody with a degree in languages and theology is an arian? I believe it is a 'wisdom and revelation' question.

Should I do the head-smack thing again? Hebrews 1, remember?
Please, just explain why your's doesn't have a God when it is right there in the text? How can you willingly deny scripture?
Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, forever. Amen. -Ephesians 3:20 & 21
1Co 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. But when I became an adult, I set aside childish ways. - Let's at least work at it?

I did not add the quotes nor the color! Deal with it!

Thanks for the compl[i]ment... I can-not accept credit for the NASB Rev 1:8 translation!
Paul
You still don't understand. Read in your translation notes and you'll understand rather quickly your mistake, I'd imagine.

I remember reading this before. I had a regional director from WA, OR, and ID representing the WT come to my home claiming he could read Greek. I pulled out my Greek NT and he left, with his disciple in tow, in a huff all mad at me. Why? Because I could read it and he couldn't? Did I embarrass him in front of his trainee? I can only imagine, I was nothing but nice.

NWT is a sectarian perversion of Scripture that systematically removes the Deity of Christ, personality of the Holy Spirit, etc. The translators had no credibility to attempt a new version.
The average JW is clueless about exegesis, Greek, etc. This is also true of their Governing Body and writing dept. (that relies on 'Christendom's' scholars, but misquotes them, etc. or obscure sources that lack conservative, biblical credibility).

They said: "Where is the God of Elijah?"
I say: "Where are the Elijahs of God?" (Ravenhill "Why Revival Tarries")

I invited a JW into my home once and we sat down at the dining room table. He laid out his NWT translation with a Greek-English Interlinear. Then I laid out my Bible with the actual Greek New Testament. He made a double take when he saw me lay down an actual Greek New Testament.

It turned out that we did not discuss the Greek.
Their Kingdom Interlinear (Westcott/Hort) is a useful tool since the interlinear side is not twisted as bad as the English one. They claim it is more accurate, yet do not encourage its use since an informed Christian can use it against them.

I was saved because of a JW Bible....in a round-about way. I had been reading Late Great Planet Earth and was amazed by the prophecies, and what was happening in Israel (just after the six day war.) When some Witnesses came to my door, I was so excited.... UNTIL they read from John 1:1, and it said, "Jesus was A God. A big loud "gong" went off in my head. I knew something was wrong and went to look in my Bible, which, of course, didn't have the "A" in it.
From there the Lord led me to an old couple who happened to be believers. I asked them about it, and they preached the Gospel on the spot. I put down Late Great, picked up MY Bible, and the rest is history.
Sorry if this is off topic, but, to this day, I can't help but be happy those people came to my door.
