shadeyinka:

The NWT is confusing everybody except JWs.

There are just two groups on this planet:-

(1) Believers
(2) Atheists

Jesus used an illustration to explain this! Matthew 7:13-14
In his illustration Jesus referred to the line of thought that attracts believers as the narrow way but this line of thought irritates unbelievers so they prefer the broad way.
Jesus' next comment emphasized a need for RECOGNITION {Matthew 7:15-20} here Jesus specifically said "you will know them" this raises the question why not "you will know him/her?"
Jesus' use of the collective pronoun "them" can't be overemphasized, the identification of the sheep or the goat can't be clearly noticed when the observer can't compare, it's what is peculiar to there gathering that will help the onlooker to distinguish between the sheep and the goats. Matthew 25:31-46

At this junction let us carefully examine the two groups.
The word BELIEVE connotes TRUST, this means a believer will have a considerable measure of TRUST in what he chooses, so whenever he is called upon to discharge his duties, a believer exert himself to give his best because he TRUSTED (BELIEVE) what he does. So if such people come together for a purpose, an observer will quickly notice the spirit of TRUST at work spontaneously as LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GOODNESS, KINDNESS, FAITH, MILDNESS and SELF-CONTROL will start to permeate that gathering! Galatians 5:22-23

But what about the Atheists? This are persons who LACK TRUST each of them is focused on his own personal interest, that's why the qualities found in the midst of believers can never be found in their gathering, rather it's the direct opposite! Galatians 5:19-21

Jesus later used another illustration to explain what will happen during the end time, as God's only begotten son Jesus came to gather all these believers together to form one big family {Matthew 15:24} but Satan the confusionist {Revelations 12:9} will not permit him to do so that easily, so while Jesus is trying to gather the believers so that they can start bearing the fruitage of God's holy spirit, Satan keeps infusing his own agents in their midst {Matthew 13:24-26} this annoyed the angels working with Jesus, they wanted to stop Satan's moves {Matthew 13:27} but Jesus said "let them be for now, during the harvest you will easily see the fine seeds (believers) everywhere they may be in my farm (earth) by then you will first bind all the weeds together in bundles for destruction then you will gather the fine seeds together in my store house!" Matthew 13:28-30
During this endtime ATHEISTS are gathered in bundles but if you're not vigilant you won't notice it, as
sexually immoral,
extortioners,
prideful,
killers,
vengeful,
spiritists, and so on are navigating towards the group that soothes them, this is the works of angels today, they're gathering the atheists(unbelievers) in groups.
But the believers (those who cherish trust) are coming out from wherever they are to locate their own group. Jesus' angels are working day and night collecting them together as one family! John 17:20-23

That's why you will see different people with totally contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines all forming alliance against just one single group!

Ordinarily this people are not in agreement due to the (lack of trust in them) but Satan is using them to antagonize Jesus' group of believers (those who cherish trust).

Rozz if carefully notice the comments of each commentator who are against the JWs, you will see that they're against one notion:- TRUST!
They want everyone to agree that there shouldn't be TRUST binding people as one, so to them no organised group can rightfully belong to God, each person should know within himself that he's worshiping God no matter the group you belong to.
That's what Jesus revealed to John! Revelations 20:8-9

Yes... Jesus Christ says Shadeyinka is obstinately wrong.


John 20:17,21,30-31.
17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”

21 Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.”

30 Now Jesus did many other signs vin the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Hebrew EL-Gibbowr and Hebrew EL (God) means "Mighty One"
No PROOF of Trinity.

It is very AUTHENTIC and Genuine.
Greek Theos= A god/God.
John 17:3 , Jesus Christ calls the one/only True God TOV Theon.= Greek "The God".
The same Greek expression TOV Theon in John 17:3 & John 14:1 is NOT Jesus Christ.

John 1:1 English "the Word was with God= Greek"The Logos was facing towards the God.
One person can NEVER face towards himself.
Luke 9:35 Yahweh says No way !!

Bros, throway the Trinity FRAUD for dustbin grin
Further PROOF is in the screenshots
The question is simple:
Is Jesus a Mighty God or Mighty god?. NWT has confused everyone and you aren't clarifying the issue either!

The Jehovah's Witness group actually has two separate Gods
1. God Almighty (Jehovah)
2. Mighty god( Jesus/Angel Michael)
Exo 20:3:
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me."


I think you agree with them.
Which one of the two statements above does not represent the JW teaching

the word Trinity was not specifically mentioned in the Bible. but if you really read through the scripture, you will see the claim of trinity as one to be true.

John 1:1 says in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God.

1vs12 now says 'and the word was made flesh 'and we beheld his glory, the glory of the only begotten of the father'. full of grace and truth.

to make it clear: 1. the word was God 2.the word which was God came as a flesh 'Jesus came as a flesh'

John 4:24 says God is a spirit, and definitely, holy spirit was mostly mentioned by Jesus as the spirit of truth. so God is really the spirit and also Jesus. *so I would like to tell you to take the trinity as a person with many roles*

And when you read down to 18 you have "no one has ever seen God". You're interpreting the Bible in a way that it seems it is contradicting itself.

Mr Janosky

This is where I always have issue with some of you. You can't continue doing this when you have been corrected many times and you saw it yourself. It will amount to manipulation of the scriptures. I have shown you here many times and you have seen it that usage of theos in John 1:1 or any verse is not a reason to say it means a god. It is context and interpretation that will determine that. We have had this discussion severally here. I likewise pointed you to one of your organization post on their website that also corrected you but you kept holding the wrong meaning.

You can go ahead defending your doctrine but ensure you use words and scriptures within their meaning and context. This is how you can present yourself truthfully.

Theos is the main Greek name for God (the supreme being) and it can be used to mean any god. Every other word for God in Greek based on Theos such as Theon, Theous etc are inflexions of the main word Theos based on the grammar usage not meaning usage.

So you can use any other thing to explain but pointing to John 1:1 that because Theos was used then it means a god, will be a deliberate error of interpretation.

I'm not a JW but you are giving points in favour of Janosky's argument with that "it is context and interpretation..." talk. If you read John 1:1 in context you'll see the way the Word that was God would not be the God Himself, especially if you read it alongside John 1:18 that states "no one has ever seen God".

well I think you understand that God came in flesh and not as a real nature of himself.

nNo one has ever seen God, but God the one and only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known (John 1:18).

from the above verse, last sentence said He made the father to be known.

Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'"(John 14:9).

read the verse above.

I presume you will still doubt what you just read

Ears you have but spiritually speaking you're deaf!
Because if you're not, even if you detest the NWT so much, haven't you heard how God's Prophet Isaiah referred to Jesus as (Wonderful Counselor)? yet his followers who speaks the same language with Jesus rejected him after spending years following this so called "Wonderful Counselor"! Matthew 13:13

Well for your information their reason for deserting the best Counselor ever was "he is a confusionist"! John 6:61-66

Yet according to his followers that stood with him and were granted God's holy spirit months later, Peter said "this same Jesus (whom his own people rejected) is the one and only means of salvation" Act 4:11

The popular English version of John 1:1 IS VERY DIFFERENT from the koine Greek language of John 1:1. The Word was facing towards the God and the Word was divine (Greek Theos= a god/God).
The Word is Theos, A god= divine.
Bros,John1:1, John 17:3 says Jesus is NOT the True God,his Father.


Colossians 1:19, it PLEASES the Father, Yahweh TO GIVE divine quality (nature) to His Son.
well, I know you are reading the Bible blindly.

God came in flesh does not equate to him being the real God. because the real God is not a flesh!! But the real God came as a flesh.

Just because the Israelites insisted saying

"JEHOVAH is the one and only TRUE God, you must come and join us before you can worship our God acceptably"

All the nations around the Mediterranean Sea became enemies of God's people!

Jesus sent his own followers in search of "the lost sheep of the house of Israel" {Matthew 10:6} perhaps Jesus was referring to Israelites who welcomes different styles of worship shey? cheesy

Certainly Jesus meant those who holds the same line of thought just like faithful Israelites of ancient times! smiley

I am not sure you saw any interpretation in my post. The post is clear and my focus is not on interpretation but correct usage of words. In English when someone is supposed to use came and he used come, that is a grammar issue not interpretation issue. And no matter how good the interpretation looks it will be flawed if it's usage of words is flawed.

Whether John 1:1 means god or God is not the target of my writing. The purpose is John using Theos is not an argument or evidence that he is speaking about god or about God, Theos can mean both in Greek lexicon. Hence no one can use such as basis of argument of God/god.

And I guess it's a major issue when commuters can differentiate meaning of words from interpretation.

And on your John 1:18 and down, I will appreciate to have your interpretation of god/God on it.

THEON/THEOS Lexicon

See attachments below from your support organisation (JW websites). Its either you are not being dishonest or you dont read at all. I have helped you get it from your support base.

This is something i have pointed out to you severally but seems you dont read. A good student will go ahead and check if it's true or not. It is not smart just repeating errors that you have been pointed to.

I am not even talking of scriptures. I am talking of your use of Greek lexicon. It's totally wrong. You should learn it the way you learn English. Don't speak people's language/word without proper knowledge of the word.

Imaging saying Theon created Theos. Please stop embarrassing yourself.

Theon and Theos are not different words. They mean the same stop the embarrassment. I have shown you than ton Theon was used for a goddess. Theon and Theos are based on grammatical construction not religion. Stop and go and read your Greek well.

Theon, Theos, Theou etc are all different form of saying God depending on grammar but it is the context that should determine if its almighty God or anyother not the word formation.

The Greek used PANTHEON to mean remember of all Gods. It is related to anything deity.

Why is it a hard thing for you to learn. Go check books, Google and materials and stop embarrassing your myself and also misleading others. You can go ahead and prove your "Jesus is not God" without having to twist words.

Why do we like putting religion coloration to everything to the end that you refused glaring truth about language. Can you go to Greece or Greek speaking environment and say this. Please stop asking always of yourself.

I have given you below a simple Google search for

"what is the difference between THEON and THEOS in Greek"
See below attachment as Google results yourself. You can make same search.

I have also given you a snapshot of one of your support organizations JW sites that support his. See second and third attachments.

I have seen many of you propagate this lies all around NL. Please stop presenting yourself in bad light and untruthful.

It also show you arent abreast with your organisation way of using lexicon. Please go an learn.

Even in ancient Greek, Philosophers and writers like Socrates and Plato usage of God was mostly Theos because of the context. Please do research. It is not enough to just be typing.

https://philosophy.stackexchange.com/questions/40477/who-is-plato-and-socrates-god

Observe that evidence and facts i presented to you are internal to your organisation and doctrine so Please after this correct yourself to make discussing with you productive.

Because if you're not, even if you detest the NWT so much, haven't you heard how God's Prophet Isaiah referred to Jesus as (Wonderful Counselor)? yet his followers who speaks the same language with Jesus rejected him after spending years following this so called "Wonderful Counselor"! Matthew 13:13

Well for your information their reason for deserting the best Counselor ever was "he is a confusionist"! John 6:61-66

Yet according to his followers that stood with him and were granted God's holy spirit months later, Peter said "this same Jesus (whom his own people rejected) is the one and only means of salvation" Act 4:11

So my business now is Rozz who noticed the mark but in doubt due to interceptions from rivers of distraction like you! wink
How come the inconsistency of Jesus as Mighty God and Mighty god.

If Jesus is a god, then he can't be God and vice versa!

Message was meant for Rozz Sir! wink

You've heard your chances remember? smiley

The same thing that irritated you back then was this idea of

"One God One Organization"

Well 8,700,000 individuals throughout the earth who submitted themselves to this organization willingly have agreed with the concept!

So if you still have one or two things to ask them, please do well to contact your former JW friends Sir, they'll feel privileged to welcome you back with open arms!

For now Rozz is trying to figure out what exactly made JWs so efficacious and diligent in their study of the Bible, despite the fact that they hold totally different opinion from all others!

God bless you! smiley
Trying hard to make s proselyte out of Ross
Mat 23:15:
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves."

OK you've come back to me, shey? cheesy

You are welcome Sir!

Please no insults, just ask your questions, no need correcting the other person by saying "you're wrong".

If you're not satisfied, present your own understanding on the subject, and leave the audience to decide!

Back to your question:

Jesus is a mighty spirit being in heaven and he came to represent JEHOVAH his God and father on planet earth. That's why Isaiah could say "he will be called...... Mighty God" {Isaiah 9:6}
Moses who equally represented Jehovah before Pharaoh in Egypt also served as God because he silenced and rendered all Egyptian God's! Exodus 7:1 smiley

well I think you understand that God came in flesh and not as a real nature of himself.

nNo one has ever seen God, but God the one and only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known (John 1:18).

from the above verse, last sentence said He made the father to be known.

Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'"(John 14:9).

read the verse above.

I presume you will still doubt what you just read

I think we can always pretend we don't know about figure of speech if it suits our narrative. So if a man points to a boy and says "if you see that boy you've seen his father", it means the boy is his mom's husband right?

Yahweh called Man ELOHIM, you no see am for your Bible?

Shadeyinka you are confusing yourself.
You are just exaggerating a non consequential issue.
Mighty God/god means the same thing in Hebrew language.

Hebrew language has no case dichotomy. It's only in English we have small case and big case dichotomy.

More so, Almighty God has no Father in the physical realm as well as spiritual realm.
But Jesus your Mighty God has his Father and his God in both realms..

Bros, does Revelations 3:5,12 exist in your Bible?

The screenshots you refused to see is here...
