Well 2.
#1, 1 Cor 10:9. The NWT translation puts the word Jehovah in place for Christ. Yet, when using the KIT Greek,my Greek, and a Online Greek Bible, Christos is written in the Chapter, and not Jehovah....yet many JWs will argue up and down that Jehovah is to be there....dispite the fact that the Greek Word for Jehovah was never even used. How can one LOGICALLY argue that Christ is not suppose to be there, when their won Greek translation has it in there??
And #2, Does the WT have their own butchered definitions of words? Here is the Hebrew definition of the word God.
1. (plural)
1. rulers, judges
2. divine ones
3. angels
4. gods
2. (plural intensive - singular meaning)
1. god, goddess
2. godlike one
3. works or special possessions of God
4. the (true) God
5. God
Here is The Hebrew Definition of the word Jehovah:
Jehovah = "the existing One"
1. the proper name of the one true God
1. unpronounced except with the vowel pointings of 0136
And here is what God means in the Greek; (Keeping in mind that the word Jehovah dosen't appear in the Greek)
1. a god or goddess, a general name of deities or divinities
2. the Godhead, trinity
1. God the Father, the first person in the trinity
2. Christ, the second person of the trinity
3. Holy Spirit, the third person in the trinity
3. spoken of the only and true God
1. refers to the things of God
2. his counsels, interests, things due to him
4. whatever can in any respect be likened unto God, or resemble him in any way
1. God's representative or viceregent
1. of magistrates and judges
Lurkers, I have a legit question, that is mind boggling to me.

1 Cor 10:19. The NWT translation puts the word Jehovah in place for Christ.
I think you mean 1Cor 10:9, but that's a good one dude I just looked it up in my interlinear Greek bible, thanks I did not know that one.

Yea I did not know that 1 Cor 10:9 is translated wrongly in NWT. Another proof that NWT is biased towards WT teaching...

Although I agree with what you are saying and I accept the Trinity, I can't accept the "dictionary" source you use.
And here is what God means in the Greek; (Keeping in mind that the word Jehovah dosen't appear in the Greek)
1. a god or goddess, a general name of deities or divinities
2. the Godhead, trinity
1. God the Father, the first person in the trinity
2. Christ, the second person of the trinity
3. Holy Spirit, the third person in the trinityThat is totally subjective.
It's what WE (Christians, bible scholars etc) accept the word "God" means in Greek but it can't possibly how the writer defined it as there was no Trinity Doctrine (formalising of the belief/concept) until 300 + years later.
