1 | Who is Jesus' God? | John 3:16 | EdB | 111990 | ||
Tara1 Touche come into my web said the spider to the fly. You ask the question and hope someone uses the right verse or verses that then enables to you jump on their answer. Your explanation of Hebrew 1:8 is lengthy and in some places quite frankly beyond me. However this we do know the translation of the NWT was done by men that did not know Hebrew nor Greek nor any of the original languages. This dissertation you provided was done through the years in an attempt to debunk these facts by breeding doubt into the correctness of existing translations while providing a feasible explanation of the NWT. In many places you used the expert linguists quotes to establish your point however in all cases you have either drawn them out of context or never provided their complete thoughts. For instance in many cases you quote Robertson to prove or make your hypothesis yet fail to mention Robertson’s stands in direct opposition to the doctrine your presenting. In many cases you take his words, quoting only the part you desire, however a full reading of what Robertson said would show that Robertson in the very next sentence proves proof that the idea your using his word to prove is incorrect and violates the original language sentence structure. This dissertation while lengthy is worthless as proof of the doctrine your trying to advocate. It is nothing more than conjecture manufactured to defend a false doctrine by taking sound bits from respected men and pasting them together in such a way that it appears they support the false doctrine your proposing. Of the respected Christian men you quoted if asked it they believe Jesus to be anything other than God would laugh you out of the room. Go back into your web and that your Russellite doctine with you. EdB |

Hi EdB, A. T. Robertson, in his book "Word Pictures in the New Testament, vol. 5 1932 on page 339 admits that "God is thy throne" or "Thy throne is God", either makes good sense. end quote. While having to admit this, A. T. Robertson nonetheless surely takes a different stand on Jesus' God being Jehovah since he was of the Baptist faith, you are correct. The same is true of John 1:1. Robertson though makes the affirmation, not I, that "the article is never meaningless in Greek". Since John 1:1 is void of the Gr. definite article "ho" some reason for this is to be determined. Many Greek scholars conclude therefore that the "theos" in question be understood as qualitative. I am simply explaining a text with sound reasoning that several Bible translations agree upon.

Bible translations may agree ... but, does that make them right? NO. We need to study the original and realize that languages change. | ||||||
