What leading Protestant Greek scholars say about the "New World Translation" :

Dr. Bruce M. Metzger, professor of New Testament at Princeton University, calls the NWT "a frightful mistranslation,.. Erroneous...pernicious...reprehensible.. If the Jehovah's Witnesses take this translation seriously, they are polytheists." (Professor of New Testament Language and Literature)

Dr. William Barclay, a leading Greek scholar, said "it is abundantly clear that a sect which can translate the New Testament like that is intellectually dishonest."

British scholar H.H. Rowley stated, "From beginning to end this volume is a shining example of how the Bible should not be translated....Well, as a backdrop, I was disturbed because they (Watchtower) had misquoted me in support of their translation." (These words were excerpted from the tape, "Martin and Julius Mantey on The New World Translation", Mantey is quoted on pages 1158-1159 of the Kingdom interlinear Translation)

Dr. Julius Mantey , author of A Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament, calls the NWT "a shocking mistranslation...Obsolete and incorrect...It is neither scholarly nor reasonable to translate John 1:1 'The Word was a god...I have never read any New Testament so badly translated as The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of The Greek Scriptures.... it is a distortion of the New Testament. The translators used what J.B. Rotherham had translated in 1893, in modern speech, and changed the readings in scores of passages to state what Jehovah's Witnesses believe and teach. That is a distortion not a translation." (Julius Mantey , Depth Exploration in The New Testament (N.Y.: Vantage Pres, 1980), pp.136-137) the translators of the NWT are "diabolical deceivers." (Julius Mantey in discussion with Walter Martin)

These are from reputable Scholars who studied Biblical Hebrew and Greek languages and could see the manipulated verses in the JW Bible. Unlike the JW translators who knew nothing about the languages. It is such a shame that Watchtower went to misquote a Scholar and the scholar threatened them. No single scholar takes the New World Translation seriously. It is not a Bible. It is a JW doctrine book. Period.

Thanks for this Oteneaaron. smiley

The bolded really caught my attention.

Maxindhouse, here's a question for you. Would you enrol your child with a so called teacher of maths who know next to nothing about mathematics?

Very good question. Just like someone who is well educated on a Subject like Mathematics, we cannot say the same for the Translation team of JW. None of them knew Biblical Greek and Hebrew. One taught the language to himself but still failed to translate a verse when he was asked to do so in a Court proceeding, showing to you the amount of Fraud these Watchtower people committed. They kept their identity for years perhaps in order to avoid criticism. But eventually their names were released. This person who Failed to translate a verse in Court was their Former president of Watchtower,Fred Franz. These are the people Jehovah's Witnesses allowed to translate and interpret the Bible for them even though they were never qualified for such. Same way a parent foolishly allows a teacher who doesn't have a degree in Mathematics and has proven to be unqualified to teach.

WOW

Funny enough, I still remember going out to preach and distribute that particular Trinity brochure.

I still shudder when I realize I was busy distributing magazines, books, tracts, and brochures filled with LIES and misquotations.

Most times when I pray, I ask God to forgive me for spreading LIES to people back when I was still a JW - I had no idea.

But ignorance is not an excuse - that is why I am bullish about exposing the LIES of Watchtower and doing extensive research into the true origins of Christianity, and religion in general.

Once beaten, twice shy.

That brochure was so out of it.

How can an organisation claiming to be God's mouthpiece goes to that length just to lie and manipulate?

In the brochure, they agreed that there are so called EARLIER FATHER who teaches the truth.

But the major concern about that brochure was when they used Atheist materials just to disprove Trinity.

If the world was filled with only JWs, we would have a world worse than the Dark Ages when the Catholic Church held sway.

Some of us would have been burnt or stoned to death for daring to speak against the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses.

At the bolded, facts! The world would be a dead zone like North Korea. You can't speak or think or question the authority. You can't express how you feel and you must say you are happy even if you are Sad or depressed. You can't say anything about the Leadership to the outside world. You can't associate with others. JW and North Korea is the same. All people that try to leave will be killed. All people that question the authority Governing body will be shamed in public and executed by hanging. This is because there will be no one to control the GB. They will do as they like. They have said it in a Watchtower that because of the laws of the Land, they cannot punish JWs that leave or question. See? That's the only thing holding them back! Laws of the Land. Once there is none, it is North Korea style!

That's suicide, it's like asking him to put a gun to his head and pull the trigger.

They will ask him instantly

Does he believe Jehovah and Jesus is using only the faithful and discreet slave aka governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses to dispense spiritual food today?

Say No and get your apostate label free without charge. It is the only question that matter most. Accepting Jehovah and Jesus without faithful and discreet slave not welcomed grin grin grin

Facts! As a JW, you must accept the Trinity: Jehovah, Jesus and the Governing body. Once you remove the Governing body and say you don't believe in them, you will be disfellowshipped and will lose your family and Loved ones. Typical Satanic Cult.

Jehovah's Witnesses invent nothing. Their lives will be just like the Israelites. Very backward. They don't like Education. They don't like Progress. Boko Haram of Christianity.
