151: History of how Calvinism developed
John Calvin was born in France on July 10, 1509. As a result of his study of the Greek New Testament, Calvin became dissatisfied with and left the Catholic church. Through his influence and teaching, he became the founder of the doctrinal system known as Calvinism. Calvin did not technically establish a denomination during his lifetime. However, his theology is the basis for the modern day Presbyterian church. It is somewhat difficult to find a classic five point Calvinist these days. However, almost every religious denomination has adopted a Calvinistic-like theology. Even some of the cults have accepted some Calvinistic principles. The Jehovah's Witnesses, ... will of man with that natural liberty and power of acting upon choice, that it is neither forced for, by any necessity of nature, determined to do good or evil." (Westminster Confession of Faith) This freewill nature of man did not change when Adam and Eve sinned but is the same today. Click Your Choice Go To Start: WWW.BIBLE.CA ...

153: Gibbon, Edward: History of Christianity
His skepticism leads him into manifold displays of unfairness and even into inaccuracies." (Cyclopedia of Biblical, theological and ecclesiastical literature, John McClintock and James Strong, Vol 3, p847 "Gibbon") Watchtower deception How credible is Gibbon's claim that Trinity was borrowed from the pagans, when most of the belief system that Trinitarians and anti-Trinitarians share (like the virgin birth, resurrection of Christ etc) are thought of by Gibbon as also of pagan origin. Gibbon not only trashes trinitarian theology, but all of Christianity as a religion! And the Governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses knows this about Gibbon's views.

No man can, by personal grace, change a man's eternal destiny, apart from the mind of God. This is why they accused Jesus of blasphemy.

173: The early use of "nomina sacra" indicates a canon was recognized
Nomina sacra developed into the Christian era and became almost ridiculous because they would create substitutional abbreviations for other "sacred" things including: God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, Saviour, Cross, Christ etc. While Christians eventually abandoned the practice of nomina sacra altogether, the Jews continue the practice by writing the word God in English as G-D where a dash is substituted for the letter O. Of course the ultimate substitution was provided by the Holy Spirit himself in the 27 books of the New Testament that consistently substitute KURIOS (Greek for "Lord") for YHWH in all Old Testament quotations in the New Testament. Examples of Nomina Sacra abbreviations for special words: Jesus Christ Son God Lord Spirit Savior David Cross Mother (with reference to Mary) Father Israel Man Jerusalem Heaven.

Pulpit preachers have no more authority than common members, unless they are also one of the elders. B. Congregational: Every member gets an equal say in church government. Church buildings are owned by the local church. (Congregational, Baptist, Pentecostal, Brethren) C. Episcopal: Episcopal is a transliteration of the Greek word for "bishop or overseer".

In utter deception, the Watchtower selects the quote, "Egyptian religion with the trinitarian group of Osiris, Isis, and Horus, constituting a divine family, like the Father, Mother, and Son" but leaves out the fact that the Egyptian trinity was a divine family complete with Father (Jehovah) and Son (Jesus). The parallel between Egyptian polytheism and trinity in number three, Jehovah's Witnesses ...

All those who believe this are reborn! --not a physical rebirth resulting from human passion or plan--but from the will of God."(John 1:11-13, Living Bible, bolds mine) The bolded words have no support at all in the original Greek. They are a blatant insertion placed by presuppositions of the translator, Kenneth Taylor. I'm not sure that even the Jehovah's Witnesses have authored such a barefaced insertion in their corrupt Scriptures. In defense of Taylor's original motives, the Living Bible was created primarily with children in mind. However, the publishers should have corrected the misleading verse in the 1960s.
