Hi,
Interesting post.
Trouble is with JWs that they are readying a totally unholy "translation" in the first place.
Plus they are not using their own thoughts but those of the WT and its teaching when they read it. Any questions they have are brought this teaching and "light" which is itself total darkness.
If they persist with their questions too long there are labelled 'apostate' and disfellowshipped so most are in fear to keep their questions to themselves.
Lastly, JWs deny the Holy Spirit who reveals the truths in the Bible.
1 Corinthians 2:14 (New International Version)
The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
There are going to be many people who have read the Bible many times and studied it ad nauseam but haven't learnt a single truth.
Mark 10:15 (New International Version)
I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."
All the best,
Stephen
Elders and JWs who study a lot...
