immaculatesense: Kingsnairaland:God his Father taught Jesus @ Deut 6:13 & Matt 4:10 (quoted by Jesus) "Worship Jehovah Yahweh ALONE". Meaning "Do NOT worship 2 persons, Jesus & Yahweh. Worship YAHWEH ALONE, simple instruction. Paul a Jew already knows that Obeisance/ homage is the proper meaning @ Hebrew 1:6. Catholic new Jerusalem Bible evidence. Pope say nah homage not worship.

Kingsnairaland: tctrills:Some people no want ignorance to leave them. But love to deceive themselves. 1. 14 Bible versions @ Jn 1:1 reads "the word was a god" Did Jesus agree? Yes. John 10:34-36,Jesus( the word ) quoted Psalm 82:6 saying,the sons of God are gods. Jesus is a god, son of God. No argument. 2. Colossians 1:15, Jesus is Firstborn of every creature is a creature as firstborn of every child is a child. No how you can twist this fact. 1 Cor 8:6,Jesus is not the Creator. @ Luke 13:2, your Bible added (" Other" which is not in any Greek manuscript.Remove it from Luke 13:2,otherwise stop the hypocrisy. 3. There is no record in your Bible that the thi.ef resurrected with Jesus. The garden of Eden was the paradise (the earth) given to man . 4. Psalm 45:6 was copied at Hebrew 1:8. The Message Bible & Catholic New Jerusalem Bible reads: "Your throne is from God"/ Your throne given of God". NWT " God is your throne ". (Same meaning with The Message Bible,Catholic New Jerusalem Bible.) In Isaiah " God is your Crown". If your version of Psalms 45:6/Hebrew 1:8 is different ,just know that you have been deceived. No capping. 5. Johaneum comma in KJV ,textus Receptus Bibles of 1 John 5:7 is a man made contraption. Use Biblehub 1 John 5:7 & note the KJV error. Quit your ignorance,I dey beg you. |

Janosky:Jn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Hebrews 1.8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom |

tctrills:Jesus spoke the statement of John 10:34-36, he is the son of God. God call his Son a god .. Jesus told me so. John the apostle heard it too. John 1:1 must be (Jesus) " the Word" is a god." [b]The Message Bible of Psalm 45:6 Bible Gateway https://www.biblegateway.com Psalm 45:6-7 MSG - “Your throne is God's throne, ever 6-7 “Your throne is God's throne, ever and always; The scepter of your royal rule measures right living. You love the right and hate the wrong & Masoretic Hebrew language of Psalm 45:6-7 ,Oga,confirm the truth there . Hebrew 1:8 was doctored with Trinitarian objectives. [/b] |

Janosky:So, about John 1.1, you are wrong. John called Jesus Christ God. Yes, Psalm 45:6-7 and Hebrews 1:8 are quite similar, but Paul never claimed that He was quoting the Psalm. Both verses are 2 independent revelations. We still have the original Greek writings of Hebrews 1, so it is very easy to detect if Hebrews 1 was doctored, and from the below, you will see it was not doctored. Now, here is Hebrews 1:8 in its original Greek, followed by a careful English translation. Original Greek (NA28 / Majority Text) πρὸς δὲ τὸν Υἱόν· Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ Θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τῆς εὐθύτητος ῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σου. Literal English Translation (word-for-word) But concerning the Son: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.” Standard English Bible Translation (ESV-style) “But of the Son he says, ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.’” Important Linguistic Note (why this verse matters) ὁ Θεὸς (ho Theos) is in the vocative sense here Grammatically, it is direct address The Father is speaking to the Son and calling Him “God” This is not: “God is your throne” ❌ (grammatically forced) “Your throne is divine” ❌ It is: “Your throne, O God” (natural Greek) This wording directly quotes Psalm 45:6–7 (LXX) and applies it explicitly to the Son, affirming His deity and eternal kingship. One-sentence conclusion In Hebrews 1:8, the Father directly addresses the Son as “God” in the original Greek, declaring His throne eternal and His rule righteous. do not say the same thing, and both are correct. |

Janosky:So I should listen to the Pope or Catholic abi? I what capacity will the Pope be acting on? As my God or as the scriptures. Worship is worship, nothing like Obeisance except you want to use it as synonyms. IT IS VISIBLE TO THE BLING THAT THE SAME HEBREW WORD WAS USED IN BOTH INSTANCES WHICH SHOWS SAME MEANING AND WEIGHT. IF YOU LIKE USE ANY SYNONYM TO DIFFERENTIATE THEM, NA YOUR WAHALA BE THAT. ALL THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH WERE INSTRUCTED TO WORSHIP HIM. HE ENJOYS THAT PRIVILEGE BECAUSE GOD, HIS FATHER, SAID SO. THAT DOESN'T PUT HIM OVER THE FATHER. THAT JUST PUT HIM OVER EVERY OTHER THING IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH. NO BE JUJU BE DAT? |
| Re: Stilldtruth Claims That Jesus Is God In Hebrews 1:8 But Not The Almighty God. by tctrills: 11:34am On Jan 09 |
Janosky:I have already replied to you above, but your argument that Psalm 45:6-7 and Hebrews 1.8 must be word-for-word the same for Hebrews 1.8 to be correct is dead on arrival. We will see that God is able to add more truths to the revelations of the Old Testament. Let's compare a few other Old Testament verses with similar verses in the New Testament Psalm 40:6 → Hebrews 10:5 Psalm 40 40:6 “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have opened.” Hebrews 10:5 “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me.” Psalm 68:18 → Ephesians 4:8 Psalm 68 68:18 “You received gifts among men…” NT – Ephesians 4:8 “He gave gifts to men.” Habakkuk 2:4 → Romans 1:17 Habakkuk 2:4 “The righteous shall live by his faithfulness.” NT – Romans 1:17 “The righteous shall live by faith.” Now the most remarkable will be Psalm 102:25 → Hebrews 1:10 Who laid the foundations of the earth? So you see that just because verses in the Old and New Testaments sound similar, they don't have to be teaching the same principles. God is able to add more truths to the revelations of the Old Testament |

immaculatesense:Mark 12:29-30 "Yeshua said to him, "The first of all the commandments: 'Hear Israel, THE LORD JEHOVAH your God, THE LORD JEHOVAH, he is One.' " 30"'And you shall love THE LORD JEHOVAH your God with your whole heart and with your entire soul and with your entire mind and with all your power.' This is the first commandment" Mark 12:29-30 plus Matt 4:10 Yeshua said The Lord Jehovah your God is One, WORSHIP Lord Jehovah ALONE" This instruction is for those who love & WORSHIP their God Jehovah ALONE. I won't disobey Jesus instructions his God taught him. |

tctrills: ![]() Tctrills,stop deceiving yourself. Paul copied/quoted every word of Psalms 45:6-8 @ Hebrew 1:8-9. Psalms 45:7-8 Hebrew Masoretic text. ז כִּסְאֲךָ אֱלֹהִים, עוֹלָם וָעֶד; שֵׁבֶט מִישֹׁר, שֵׁבֶט מַלְכוּתֶךָ. 7 Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom. ח אָהַבְתָּ צֶּדֶק, וַתִּשְׂנָא-רֶשַׁע: עַל-כֵּן מְשָׁחֲךָ אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֶיךָ, שֶׁמֶן שָׂשׂוֹן-- מֵחֲבֵרֶךָ. 8 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; {N} therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows" Why whould you translate from Hebrew language to Greek & give a different rendition in your Greek text? Hebrew language Psalm 45 " Your throne given of God is forever" Greek translation " Your throne O God." Oga,be reasonable & reason well. Stop deceiving yourself. |

tctrills:@ John 10:34-36, John wrote & agreed that Jesus is a god , the son of God , his quote of Psalms 82:6 confirmed that. That is the same thing John wrote @ John 1:1, the Word , God's son is a god. Jesus said it as he read it in the Hebrew language scrolls.. But opinionated men translated a different thing in Greek @ John 1:1. |

Janosky:Again, you are depending on guess work. Paul never claimed to copy any verse. You are simply of the illusion that God can't add more revelation to His words. Lastly, Hebrews 1.8 was originally written in Greek so I gave you the Original Greek translation. I challenge you to translate Hebrew 1.8 using any AI. These days you don't need to ask anyone for ta ranslation. Grok, Chatgpt or Gemini would give you an accurate translation. Lastly, if you have any evidence that Paul was directly quoting the words in psalms please show; we are ready to learn. In fact, let me help you. I will get the translation of Hebrews 1.8 from ChatGPT, Grok, and Gemini so we can compare. AI is neutral; it has no religion. I asked, Please give me the original Greek translation of Hebrews 1.8 and its most accurate English translation From Chatgpt 📜 Original Greek (NA28) πρὸς δὲ τὸν Υἱόν· Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ Θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τῆς εὐθύτητος ῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σου. 🇬🇧 Standard English Translation (literal) “But concerning the Son he says: ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.’” 🧠 Why Hebrews 1:8 is so important The speaker is the Father The phrase “But concerning the Son he says” makes it explicit that God the Father is speaking. The Son is directly addressed as “God” The Greek ὁ Θεός (ho Theos) functions as a vocative—a direct address: 👉 “Your throne, O God …” This is not poetic exaggeration in Hebrews While Psalm 45:6–7 used exalted royal language, Hebrews removes ambiguity by: Identifying the subject as the Son Using the verse to prove the Son is greater than angels Treating the title “God” as literal and theological Eternal rule is attributed to the Son “Forever and ever” is language used of Yahweh’s eternal reign in the Old Testament. 🔑 One-sentence summary In Hebrews 1:8, God the Father directly addresses the Son as “God,” affirming His eternal throne and divine kingship, and making explicit what was only hinted at in Psalm 45. From Gemini The Original Greek TextThe text from the Novum Testamentum Graece (NA28):πρὸς δὲ τὸν υἱόν· Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τῆς εὐθύτητος ῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σου.Transliteration and Word-for-Word BreakdownGreek WordTransliterationEnglish Meaningπρὸς δὲ τὸν υἱόνpros de ton hyionBut unto/regarding the SonὉ θρόνος σουho thronos souThe throne of youὁ θεὸςho theos[the] Godεἰς τὸν αἰῶναeis ton aiōnaunto the ageτοῦ αἰῶνοςtou aiōnosof the age (forever)καὶ ἡ ῥάβδοςkai hē rhabdosand the scepterτῆς εὐθύτητοςtēs euthytētosof uprightness/righteousnessῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σουrhabdos tēs basileias sou[is the] scepter of your kingdom The Most Accurate English Translation"Accuracy" in this verse depends on how one interprets the Greek grammar (specifically the nominative case used for "God" . However, the overwhelming consensus among Greek scholars and major translations is that "God" is being used as a vocative (addressing the Son directly as God).The Standard Scholarly Translation (e.g., ESV, NASB, NIV):."But of the Son he says, 'Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.'"The Translation Debate: Why it Matters There are two primary ways to translate the phrase Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ θεὸς:The Vocative (Most Accepted): "Your throne, O God, is forever..."Reasoning: This is the most natural reading of the Greek and matches the context of Hebrews 1, which aims to show that the Son is higher than angels because He shares God's nature and status.The Predicative (Alternative): "God is your throne forever..."Reasoning: Grammatically possible, but rare. This version is used by groups (such as Jehovah's Witnesses in the New World Translation) who argue that Jesus is not God, but rather that God is the source or foundation of Jesus' power. Conclusion for Your Study: If you are looking for the translation that best captures the intent of the author of Hebrews, it is the one that addresses the Son as God. The author is meticulously building a case that while angels are "servants" (v. 7), the Son is the "King" who sits on a divine throne. From Grok Here is the original Greek text of Hebrews 1:8 from the standard critical editions (Nestle-Aland 28th/UBS 5th, which are identical for this verse): πρὸς δὲ τὸν υἱόν· Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τῆς εὐθύτητος ῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σου. Why the vocative ("Your throne, O God…" is preferredThe verse is a direct quotation of the Septuagint (Greek Old Testament) of Psalm 45:6, where the vocative is the standard reading. The structure "ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ θεὸς" uses the nominative form "ὁ θεὸς" as a vocative of address (common in Koine Greek, even though the pure vocative would be "θεέ" .Context in Hebrews 1 emphasizes the Son's divine status and superiority (vv. 3, 4, 6, 8–12). Most major scholarly commentaries (e.g., Bruce, Lane, O'Brien, Koester) and modern critical translations support the vocative reading. If you'd like a comparison with the Jehovah's Witnesses' New World Translation ("God is your throne…" or further discussion of the theological implications, let me know! |

Janosky:Here is the research from Grok. I hope you agree that AI is much better than you at translation. Chatgpt 📜 Original Greek (NA28) πρὸς δὲ τὸν Υἱόν· Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ Θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τῆς εὐθύτητος ῥάβδος τῆς βασιλείας σου. 🇬🇧 Standard English Translation (literal) “But concerning the Son he says: ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.’” 🧠 Why Hebrews 1:8 is so important The speaker is the Father The phrase “But concerning the Son he says” makes it explicit that God the Father is speaking.

Janosky:I have answered your question in my earlier post, but again, I asked ChatGPT why the JW translation is not accurate. Let's learn below. The Jehovah’s Witness (JW) translation, officially called the New World Translation (NWT), is often criticized as not accurate because it changes the meaning of key texts to fit JW theology, rather than letting the Greek and Hebrew determine doctrine. Below is a clear, respectful, text-based explanation, with concrete examples—especially Hebrews 1:8, which you’ve been asking about. The core issue: theology drives translation All translations involve interpretation, but the NWT is different because: It was produced by a small, anonymous committee None of the translators were recognized experts in Koine Greek or Biblical Hebrew The translation was designed to support JW doctrines, especially: Jesus is not God Jesus is a created being (Michael the archangel) When translation decisions repeatedly align with one doctrine—even when grammar argues otherwise—that’s a red flag. Hebrews 1:8 — the clearest example Greek text (unchanged in all manuscripts) Ὁ θρόνος σου ὁ Θεὸς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος All standard translations render it: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever” NWT renders it: “God is your throne forever and ever” Why this is inaccurate Greek vocative address (“O God”) is normal here The word order matches direct address, not a predicate No Greek grammar rule supports “God is your throne” No ancient Jewish or Christian source understood it that way 👉 The NWT translation exists only to avoid calling the Son “God” This is especially serious because: The verse begins: “But about the Son, he says…” The speaker is God the Father The Father addresses the Son as God The NWT reverses the meaning to avoid this conclusion. John 1:1 — adding theology, not translating Greek καὶ Θεὸς ἦν ὁ Λόγος Standard translation “and the Word was God” NWT “and the Word was a god” Why this is inaccurate Greek does not use an indefinite article (“a”) The construction describes nature, not identity No justification exists for inserting “a” Early Greek-speaking Christians never read it this way The NWT adds a word that is not in the text. Colossians 1:16–17 — inserting words repeatedly Greek “by him all things were created…” NWT “by him all other things were created…” The word “other”: Appears 4 times Appears 0 times in Greek manuscripts This changes the meaning from: Christ created everything to Christ created everything except himself That’s theology, not translation. Colossians 1:16–17 — inserting words repeatedly Greek “by him all things were created…” NWT “by him all other things were created…” The word “other”: Appears 4 times Appears 0 times in Greek manuscripts This changes the meaning from: Christ created everything to Christ created everything except himself That’s theology, not translation. Luke 23:43 — moving punctuation to change doctrine Greek (no punctuation) “Truly I say to you today you will be with me in Paradise” Standard understanding “Truly I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise” NWT “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in Paradise” Why? JW theology denies conscious life after death Moving the comma supports that belief No grammatical necessity exists for the change Again, doctrine determines translation. Why this matters Translation should answer: “What does the text say?” The NWT often answers: “What must the text say for our doctrine to work?” That reverses the proper order of interpretation. One-sentence conclusion The JW New World Translation is not considered accurate because it repeatedly alters grammar, adds words, or changes meaning in key passages—especially about Jesus—to fit Watchtower theology rather than faithfully translating the original Greek and Hebrew. |

Why Investigate Bible Translations Like a Legal Document |The "Muddled Will" Problem & God's Name What if your grandfather’s will—worth millions—was translated as: “The Gentleman gives the inheritance to the Gentleman”? You’d reject it immediately. Yet in the Bible, translators often replace God’s personal name (YHWH/Jehovah)—which appears nearly 7,000 times—with the vague title “Lord.” This erases critical distinctions, like in Psalm 110:1: “Jehovah said to my Lord…” becomes “The Lord said to my Lord…”—muddling who is speaking and who is being addressed. In legal, immigration, or business matters, we investigate, not just argue or reject. So why do we accept ambiguity in scripture—where eternal stakes are higher? In this eye-opening video, we apply the same intellectual honesty to the Bible that we demand in courtrooms: ✅ Why investigation—not tradition—is the only sincere response to textual discrepancies ✅ How John 1:1’s Greek grammar distinguishes “The God” (the Father) from “a divine one” (the Word) ✅ Why Jesus never used a substitute for God’s name—and taught us to pray, “Hallowed be your name” ✅ The shocking truth about 1 John 5:7—a later addition absent from early manuscripts, inserted to support doctrine ✅ How modern tools (AI, concordances, lexicons) make ignorance inexcusable If you wouldn’t sign a contract with blacked-out names, don’t build your faith on obscured identities. Worship “in spirit and truth”—starting with calling God by the name He revealed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcbJHM__Hg8 🔔 Part of our series exposing clear, evidence-based truths in Scripture.

tctrills:Lol...but you yourself claim that Jesus is not the Almighty God. Is that what the Trinity doctrine teaches? Below is Hebrew 1:9 King James Bible Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. According to the verse above, If Jesus was the Almighty God in Hebrews 1:8, who is the other God in the verse above that is anointing him with oil?

Ephesians 1:20-22 [20]that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. [21]Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. [22]God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. 1 Corinthians 15:27-28 [27]For the Scriptures say, “God has put all things under his authority.” (Of course, when it says “all things are under his authority,” that does not include God himself, who gave Christ his authority.) [28]Then, when all things are under his authority, the Son will put himself under God’s authority, so that God, who gave his Son authority over all things, will be utterly supreme over everything everywhere. Revelation 5:12-14 [12]And they sang in a mighty chorus: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slaughtered— to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing.” [13]And then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea. They sang: “Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever.” [14]And the four living beings said, “Amen!” And the twenty-four elders fell down and WORSHIPPED the LAMB. |

Jesus told one of his disciples: “You don’t need to hold on to me! I have not yet gone back up to the Father. But go to my followers and tell them this: ‘I am going back to my Father and your Father. I am going back to my God and your God.’” John 20:17 But someone said God commanded all those living in heaven and earth to worship Jesus (including the father of Jesus) to worship His own son Jesus! Haba!🤣🤣 |
