If you do enough digging you will find plenty of information regarding the origin of the name and JW writers highlighting it is not the correct pronunciation. The very bible JW's use, in the appendix A4, expresses the origin of the name Jehovah and why we/they use it, this can be seen by...

I am one of Jehovah's witnesses. When I referred to "them" I was speaking about the publishers of books and literature made by the Watchtower and Bible tract Society (JW's). Did you ever make a reply to my post direct at you? Why move on when you've given no reply? You've directed me to post...

Many would agree with me that Jehovah is not the correct pronunciation. As stated it is highlighted throughout our literature and mentioned from time to time at our meetings, I've personally spoken to many witnesses about this, it is common knowledge. Some witnesses who are ignorant will no...

I have read numrious JW literature and never have I seen them claim the rendering "Jehovah" is the best or most correct translation, I've seen literature highlight its the most commonly known snd popular one, but never the best. Most JW's I know know Yahweh is the better translation, there...

You've answered exactly how I wanted you to answer. If I wanted to use a verse that restricts the understanding of panta (all things) I would've used Col 1:18 that suggests Jesus is first in "all things" without much qualification. Instead, I used Hebrews 2:8 which uses strong definite language...

Are not the Angels the work of God's hands? I think you would agree they are. The verse makes no mention of only physical creation being mentioned and rather seems to include the invisible creation by mentioning that man was created lower than Angels. Also, I'm not suggesting whether the verse...

Hi Trevor, I read your post and felt compelled to respond to your last paragraph about the divine name. Whilst JW's commonly use the name "Jehovah" in English we do not insist of using that version of the name of understand it to be the most accurate version of it. When the NWT is translated...

Refer to the last few posts on the thread "Jesus is God" where I've quoted you, apart from my last reply to you on there the three prior post I included the question regarding the use of "all things" according the Hebrews 2:8 and asked you to answer the question. The last time I asked you to...

No, trinitarians did not give anyone the scriptures, the people who wrote the scriptures gave us the scriptures. Just because people who belonged to the church collected the writings and books of people and compiled them all together does not mean the writings are from them. If I got the...

I'd be more than happy to hear where you believe scripture teaches the trinity, please just take into account what teach actually means. Please show us where Jesus or anyone else 'taught' the trinity JR, if you will?

I can say the same thing in regard to Trinitarians. I can say the same thing in regard to Trinitarians. I don't have that understanding. A number of unitarians do not share in all the same beliefs as me the same way a number of Trinitarians do not share in all the same beliefs as you. Perhaps...

You have purposely insulted me even when I have politely asked you not to, I have also seen you insult others; insults are the result of emotions, so to say you are never emotional is false. There are a few things I need to clear up. Firstly, I do not deny Jesus is a divine being, according to...

Lon, if you haven't got the hint already let me make it real clear for you, I will not engage with you until you answer the question I posed on the other thread. There is far too much waffle in your response; as I have expressed numerous times there is no point in speaking to someone who...

Lon, you need to loosen up a little. You said nothing in regards to how what I said was not irrefutable. To be a follower of Christ, or better put, his disciple, means you are a Christian; you've previously said this was not irrefutable, but, from what I can see, you've nowhere explained how...

I'm a he, not a she. I assuming you are unwilling to engage with me despite me stating I am not a Christian according to your understanding of who christ is, and that I will not be using the NWT?

It kinda is irrefutable. Acts 11:26, which you produced shows it when it states "The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch". A disciple is someone who is a student, pupil, or follower of someone, the "disciples" of Christ were called "Christians", as Acts 11:26 states. If people...

The defintion of the word christian is someone who is a "follower of christ", this fact is irrefutable. I can say for a fact I'm not a christian according to your understanding of who Christ is; I am NOT a follower of your christ. Although I don't agree with you stating the NWT is corrupted...

As you and others are probably aware I am one of Jehovah's witnesses. Your copy and pasted article attempts to express many scriptual issues with JW theology compared to the bible, I'm more than happy to enter into dialogue with you regading these apparent issues, if your up to the challenge...
