the truth about Jehovah’s Witness, part 4

So far in this series, I have discussed the Jehovah’s Witness belief system focusing on problems in translation of their “bible”, flawed interpretation of core beliefs , and flawed interpretation of religious practices .

Before I get too deep into what I am going to present as evidence about who Jesus was, I want to give some props to another blogger who has done...Read Full Story

By danbelieves on | From bibledude.net

As I wrap up this series about the Jehovah’s Witness faith, I would like to take the opportunity to address one of the most important points that I can about interacting with people in this faith-system.

By acts2and38 on

The Name Jesus When the fulness of time came, God did satisfy the longings of His people and revealed Himself in all His power and glory through the name Jesus.

Godhead

By acts2and38 on

Godhead is a Middle English variant of the word godhood, and denotes the divine character of the Christian God. Godhead is also a title for God. The term was introduced by John Wycliffe (godhead, then spelled as godhede) in the King James Version Bible. The word "Godhead" occurs three times in the scriptures (Acts 17:29, Rom. 1:20, Col. 2:9). There are two different Greek words translated Godhead in these occurrences, theiotes and theotes. Thayer says Godhead (theiotes) means, "divinity...Read Full Story
