Watchtower Deceptions: Confusing Modalism as if it were trinity ... "AT JOHN 1:1 the King James Version reads: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Trinitarians claim that this means that "the Word" (Greek, ho lo'gos) who came to earth as Jesus Christ was Almighty God himself. Someone who is 'with' another person cannot also be that other person."
