Tim, You know me better than that. You yourself many times have attributed truth and insight to the "qualifications" of Bible translators. I do not. You and I can can even translate. Allow me to ask you about the NASV. Do not their exegetical interpretations sway your way of thinking in the least? Truthfinder |

Greetings Truthfinder! Before we go down a different rabbit trail, I am still confused about your original response to my question. I asked where does the Bible say that Jesus is created! You responded with a footnote from a translation. What was the point? And, the original question still stands: Where does the Bible say that Jesus is created? Of course, I already know the answer to this one! :-) It does not ever say that He was created. But, it does say that He created all things. Now, as far as the NASV is concerned, I would have to say that it does not influence me in the least, since I never use it! ;-) When I was younger, I used the KJV. As I got a little older, I started using the NIV. I will very occasionally compare a verse in other translation, but not very often. For the most part, I go directly to the Greek for my serious study. Now, for the OT, I don't remember as much of the Hebrew, so I can't really read directly from it. I do remember enough to consult those who do know Hebrew though. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

For By Him All Things Were Created NASB Colossians 1:16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. The Bible teaches that by Christ all things were created. Some say that Christ Himself is a created being. If both these statements are true, then Christ created Himself -- since he created all things. Of course the idea that Christ created Himself is absurd. Therefore, since the Bible is true, then it is not true that He is a created being. He Himself Existed Before All Things NASB Colossians 1:17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. AMPLIFIED Colossians 1:17 And He Himself existed before all things, and in Him all things consist (cohere, are held together). [Prov. 8:22-31.] A. The Bible teaches that Christ Himself existed BEFORE all things. B. Some say that Christ Himself is a created being.* If both A and B are true, then Christ existed before He existed, which is impossible. Therefore, since the Bible is true, then it is not true that He is a created being.* ____________________ *created being. All things would include Christ. In Colossians 1:16 "all things" include "rulers or authorities", which are beings or persons, as Christ is. ******************** Tim: Of course, I agree with you. I thought you might find this post interesting. --Radioman2 |

Greetings Radioman2! Of course, we could do like the NWT and simply add the word 'other'! Problem solved! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
