1 | Jesus, "a god"--John 1:18 | John 1:18 | Truthfinder | 76533 | ||
Jesus being "a god" in John 1:18, differs from translation to translation. Why? From what Greek manuscripts are the most popular Bible translations from? Truthfinder |

2 | Jesus, "a god"--John 1:18 | John 1:18 | Hank | 76534 | ||
Truthfinder: No honest, reliable translation that I know of refers to Jesus as "a god" in John 1:18 or in any other place in the Scriptures. But the New World (mis)Translation does call Him "a god" in John 1:1. So they are right and all the other translations are wrong? Come on! Surely even you don't believe this cult's deceptions....The premise that Jesus Christ is "a god" is too ridiculous for words, and so I will have no more to say on this absurdity..... Use Search to read up on Greek manuscript texts. --Hank | ||||||
3 | Jesus, "a god"--John 1:18 | John 1:18 | Ray | 76539 | ||
Hi Truthfinder, As one who has found the Truth do you agree with the New World Translation of John 19:7? John 19:7, NWT, "The Jews answered him: "We have a law, and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself God's son.'" The way I read this translation, they make Jesus out to be a god and also just a "son of God". Is that the "truth" that you have found? From the heart, Ray |

4 | Jesus, "a god"--John 1:18 | John 1:18 | Truthfinder | 76557 | ||
Hi Ray, Yes, exactly to both questions. Also,as far as translations go the New Living Bible says, “The Jewish leaders replied, "By our laws he ought to die because he called himself the Son of God." The faithless Jews were accusing Jesus of blasphemy prior to this and now they changed to the charge of sedition, and the penalty was still death. Even Jesus' enemies recognized Jesus was being known as the Son of God. Truthfinder |

5 | Jesus, "a god"--John 1:18 | John 1:18 | Ray | 76601 | ||
Hi Truthfinder, I am sorry that you find truth in the NWT. Your son of God is just like us; your god has no power to save or deliver. 1) I have just noticed that your question talked about "a god", which is in verse 1, but your question is really about verse 18. So you are probably denying that Jesus is God because He was seen. You don't understand that the unique Son, this only begotten God, is in the bosom of the Father. John 1:18 tells us that this Man has explained Him. This Man is God in the flesh; He has explained Spirit. No man has seen Spirit. God is Spirit. If Jesus took on the glory of God, then His witness would not be true. But Jesus glorified the Father while on the earth. I suggest you study John 17 and count the pronouns in that prayer to see that the total is divisible by three as are many of the prayers in the Scriptures. We all need to know this triune God. From the heart, Ray |
