Bible Question: MissJW [Jehovah's Witness]: What do you consider the proper translation of John 1:1? Who is Jesus -- is He God or a god? Do you confess to the full deity of Christ? Is He fully a member of the Trinity -- or do you deny the biblical doctrine of the Trinity? --Hank |
Bible Answer: Hello Hank, I noticed you had several questions for me and are marked as unanswered. I notice too that probably very few will read this post since it has now become "restricted". I notice that this happens when Biblical "truths" are presented here on this forum but disliked. Other Bible study forums don't do that you know. Anyway, you already know the answers to the questions you ask of me, thus elucidating would be of no avail. So I wonder why you ask? Do you really desire a scholarly exegesis of John 1:1 or just the run of the mill eisegesis? Hank, I believe the Bible. I know what the Bible says. I know what history and tradition of man tells us. And I know that poor hermeneutical practice is one thing but rejection of simple blatant logic is another. I know too that Jesus taught me to love my enemies. I totally admire people that can do that don't you? They are special people, I asure you, not only to me but especially to our omniscient and omnipotent Creator and to his Son our beloved Lord and Savior. Miss JW |
