  Let the GB/WT/FDS tell you:

  Page 4, 2014 Yearbook

  Jehovah used his own spirit-begotten sons to provide the original New World Translation. (Rom. 8:15, 16) That fact alone certainly makes this translation special, do you not agree?

  Do you not agree also?

  God waited how many years for a group of men gather and translate his Word?????

  Also on the same page:

  The New World Bible Translation Committee released the newly revised English edition of the finest translation of the Bible available to mankind.

  How humble the WT/FDS/GB are!!

  NOT!

  "....the finest translation of the Bible available to mankind"

  Hmmm....if true, why is it that no Bible scholars or non-JWs use it?

  Er...No!

  ...and it's not a 'fact' either.

  Just shows what a twat Jehovah(TM) is if he can't even get the original version right without it needing updating!

  Let's review: It's a cult!

  Yes, it's a cult.

  ...the finest translation of the Bible available to mankind.

  Because they are a cult, and because the Bible IS SUPPOSED TO BE their most important book, they go way over the top selling it. No real revelations there.

  Does it actually say that? What's the context? It sounds like a flat claim of divine intervention in the translation process
