    JW Can a JW explain this to me?

    Yet still, the source of that creative power is not explained, at least by you! The scriptures, when left alone to speak, say the source is the father, regardless of the role the son/word was fulfilling at the point of reference to a particular verse. The bible at no point calls Jesus/the Word...

    JW Can a JW explain this to me?

    So close, but yet so far! If all things were created "through" him, then who was the source? Who was the source acting through Jesus? It seems reasonable to assert that force was none other than the Father as shown in 1Cor. 8:6.

    JW Can a JW explain this to me?

    Lol, since when did firstborn not imply first-created? My firstborn son was the first of my offspring that was created by my wife and I. And, Firstborn of what? Col. 1:15 says OF (not OVER, that's a translation unique to the NIV and maybe a few others) "all CREATION. Jesus here in Col. 1:15 is...

    JW John 1:1

    John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God. This English translation makes the "Word" the Same as "the God" whom he is said to be with. Leading to the need to create another meaning for the term Theos. Other English words like "essence" and "being" are...

    JW wealth in new earth

    One thing Daniel and his warped sense of humour seems to overlook is that Satan is not a literal dragon, nor will he be confined in a literal pit with a literal key, nor will a woman be given literal wings to fly into the wilderness, nor will any literal seven headed wild beast do any but become...
