Bible Question: Two people just came to my door. We discussed a difference in translation that is the basis for their belief. Where is the verse found that addresses Jesus as "...the God" as opposed to the New World Translation of "...a God"? |
Bible Answer: Hello Don of Dallas, As mentioned, read the gopels, John 1:1, or here is one, read Matthew 1:22. The New World Translation is from the Jehovah Witness, However with Christ in your life you can witness for Jehovah! |
