101: Stumper questions Jehovah's Witnesses do not like to be asked ...
... If men edited out the name of God, "YHWH" when they copied the New Testament, as only the Watchtower organization claims, then how can we have any confidence in any of the New Testament? Should we discard the New Testament or the Watchtower organization as unreliable? If the name "Jehovah" is so important, then why does Acts 4:12 say, "There is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name [v10 Jesus Christ] under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"? Would this not have been the logical place for God to have used the name "YHWH"? What is the correct spelling of God's proper name "Yahweh" or "Jehovah"? If ... Since the Watchtower organization claims "apostolic succession" who was it that "passed the torch of God's Spirit" to C. T. Russel when he founded the organization? What was the name of this individual? In the NWT, every time the Greek word "proskuneo" is used in reference to God, it is translated as "worship" (Rev 5:14, 7:11, 11:16, 19:4, Jn 4:20, ... ...

106: The polytheistic "henotheism" of Jehovah's Witnesses and Christadelphi ...
... Worshipping of angels is condemned: Col 2:18. Gal 1:8 warns that angels, like demons, can become agents of false doctrine: "But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! " (Galatians 1:8) Even if angels were called "gods" (they never are) it would still not prove the Jehovah's Witness Henotheism because the word "elohim" (god) means "mighty ones" is used in a wide variety of ways. The best argument Jehovah's Witnesses can use is by claiming a direct one for one correspondence between two sets of passages: (Psalm 97:6 = Heb 1:6) and (Psalm 8:5 = Heb 2:7). Although New Testament quotations of Old Testament passages are always inspired commentaries, there are many examples of where a "one for one" correspondence is impossible. In fact the Holy Spirit went out of His way to make sure we would not directly equate angels with the word elohim (god) in these two passages. There are many examples of where a ... ...

We reject that all the specific elements in this section of the narrative are to be taken literally. Commenting on Luke 16: "What is important for us to grasp is that Christ used the mental images conjured up by this rabbinic parable to teach that, in the hereafter, the wicked experience torment and the righteous bliss." (Death and The Afterlife, Robert Morey, p. 84,85) Just as God Himself is described in the same kind of symbolic "earthly" word pictures or "anthropomorphisms" (possessing literal hands, eyes, ears) so too Luke 16 is described in the identical type of word pictures. We cannot reject that God actually possesses "something like" hands, eyes and ears any more ... Arians say the corresponding spiritual meaning is about the "righteous-poor triumphing over the wicked-rich". But this concept is already taught extensively throughout the Old Testament. If this truth is already revealed clearly in the OT without the "wild fable-like details" of consciousness in the grave, then what ... ...

114: Is Jesus an actual or mythical Historical person?
Jesus in history means that Jesus lived, died, and rose again in a part of our world which can be located on a map and in a time that can be placed on a calendar. The New Testament insists on the fact that the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ belong to the category of objective history and not to that of an inner experience. Jesus in history is so important, that His coming divides history into two periods: B.C. and A.D.

116: McKenzie, John L.: Dictionary of the Bible
... What it does contain are the words which the NT employs to express the trinity of persons such as Father, Son, Word, Spirit, etc. A study of these words shows us how the revelation of God in the NT advances beyond the revelation of God in the OT.

Normally the word with or without the article designates the God of the Old Testament and of Judaism, the God of Israel: Yahweh. But the character of God is revealed in an original way in the NT; the originality is perhaps best summed up by saying that God reveals Himself in and through Jesus Christ. The revelation of God in Jesus Christ does not consist merely in the prophetic word* as in the OT, but in an identity between God and Jesus Christ. Jn 1:1"-18 expresses ... ...

There was no coerced treatment and the insane were never forcibly confined in an asylum away from his home.

126: Trinity proof texts: Isaiah 6:1-9 + John 12:41
... Nevertheless many even of the rulers believed in Him (Christ), but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing Him (Christ), for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God. And Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in Me, does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me. "He who sees Me sees the One who sent Me. " John 12:37-45 II. Plural pronouns used of God proving the trinity: A. Three plural pronouns, (We, Us, Our) used 6 different times in four different passages. Remember the word God (elohim) is also plural every time it is used in the Old Testament.

127: Nuweiba Beach Red Sea crossing: Rejected, debunked, refuted
... In 1407 BC, the "way to the Red Sea" was the road in the Arabah valley from Kadesh Barnea at Petra towards Ezion Geber (Elat): Numbers 21:4; Deut 1:40; 2:1. c. The most logical route for the "way to the Red Sea" is due south towards the Gulf of Suez. God had forbidden Moses to go due west on the "way of the Philistines". d.

131: Teens! Use Your Freedom Wisely!
The apostle, Paul, wrote in I Cor. 6:12 and 10:23: "All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any . . . All things are lawful for me, but all things edify not." God wants Christians to be free and happy. His followers should not be sad prisoners of their faith. So that Christians can be both free and happy, God limited Christian freedom. Christians live within God's prescribed confines from respect of God's will. Others obey these limitations because they are necessary, logical and time proven. Freedom's first limitation is that the things we do must be expedient, or beneficial.

It is certainly true that Christianity had already been introduced before the New Testament Scriptures were written, but that does not prove the Scriptures alone are not the guide for Christianity today.

136: Dancing and the Bible: Is it OK?
Since the term "dancing" is capable of expressing a broad range of man's thoughts, it may also portray that which is lewd and sinful. Moses, having received the law from God, returned from the mount to find the people dancing naked around the golden calf which they had formed (Exodus 32:19-26). The dancing of the daughter of Herodias had such appeal to the base human passion that Herod promised to give her anything she might desire, a rash promise which led to the murder of John the baptizer (Matthew 14:3-10). Our "modern dancing", a phrase used to include both ballroom dancing in which there is continuous body contact between partners and such dancing as that which commonly accompanies modern rock music, differs greatly from the dancing mentioned in the Bible, for such present-day dancing has no trace of religious significance, nor is it solo in nature, but involves men and women dancing together.

142: Development of Trinity Doctrine from the Old to the New Testament
... For Christians the name of God is JESUS! "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12) Certainly the Jews never foresaw the time when YHWH would no longer be used as the name for God and it would be replace with Jesus! But actually, in God's providence, the Jews were actually part of the change. The Septuagint was a translation in 250 BC from the Hebrew Old Testament by 70 scholars into Greek. They translated YHWH as LORD (Kurios). It was no mistake that the Holy Spirit Himself continued in this tradition in the New Testament. God ordained that YHWH would never once be found in the original Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. Of course the New World Translation (sectarian paraphrase used only by JW's) adds YHWH into the English New Testament where never found in the underlying Greek.

In the same way Rome has developed an unwritten tradition that she has synthesized with the written New Testament to the degree that it cannot be judged by that New Testament.
