Bible Note: Greetings Tara! Your evading the question my friend! Jehovah doesn't use the term 'mighty God' in Isaiah. He simply uses the term 'elohim'. So, either Jehovah is correct when He says there are no other gods or He is not? Which is it? The only places where people or angels are called 'gods' is in poetic passages or in passages refering to false gods. Is a false god really a god? I could call my desk a god, but that doesn't make it true! :-) So, in a nut shell, here is my problem with your theology. You ignore a very clear statement of Jehovah. He says that there are no other gods besides Him. He doesn't say there are no other 'mighty gods'. He doesn't say there are no other 'almighty gods'. He simply says that there are no other 'elohim'. Yet, you claim that there are in fact other 'elohim'. So, you deny Jehovah's words. In fact, in Isaiah, Jehovah calls us to be His witnesses that there are no other 'elohim', yet JW's claim that there are other 'elohim'. So, they are false witnesses. Until you come to accept the truth of Jehovah's words, the truth about Jesus will always evade you my friend. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
