The NWT says that I should put my faith in Jesus Christ, does that not infer that he is a God by implying that "faith" should be placed in "him".
Whoever puts faith in me, just as the scripture has said: ‘From deep within him streams of living water will flow.’”+
39 However,
he said this concerning the spirit, which those who put faith in him
were about to receive; for as yet there was no spirit,+ because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Can anyone explain this to me where Jesus says He is God and God is He:?
At that time the Festival of Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was wintertime,
23 and Jesus was walking in the temple in the colonnade of Sol′o·mon.+
24 Then the Jews surrounded him and began to say to him: “How long are you going to keep us* in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
25 Jesus
answered them: “I told you, and yet you do not believe. The works that I
am doing in my Father’s name, these bear witness about me.+
26 But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep.+
27 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.+
28 I give them everlasting life,+ and they will by no means ever be destroyed, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.+
29 What
my Father has given me is something greater than all other things, and
no one can snatch them out of the hand of the Father.+
30 I and the Father are one.”*+
Basically God the father made him into a God by putting some bondo in between them and making them one unit.. Everywhere Jesus goes, so goes God, Everywhere God goes, so goes Jesus. (Purely a symbolic representation of what the scripture says).
When you prey to Jesus, you prey to your Lord Jesus and Also God the Father. It says it in all the bibles, even the NWT.
"for if you publicly declare with your mouth that jesus is lord,+ and exercise faith in your heart that god raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.
10 for with the heart one exercises faith for righteousness, but with the mouth one makes public declaration+ for salvation.
11 for the scripture says: no one who rests his faith on him will be disappointed.+
I also have questions about this verse in the NWT:
But Moses said to the true God: “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your forefathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is his name?’+ What should I say to them?” 14 So God said to Moses: “I Will Become What I Choose* to Become.”*+ And he added: “This is what you are to say to the Israelites, ‘I Will Become has sent me to you.’
I feel ashamed to even think God is "becoming" something "else". God is infinite, and does not "become" anything in any concept of "changing". God is truth and the truth never "becomes". It is what it is. God is "everlasting". God is Everpower, God is Everpresent but god is not "becoming". This seems like a really bad perversion of other Christian bibles. It feels like im insulting God just thinking about it and belittling Gods infinite power.
"for if you publicly declare with your mouth that jesus is lord,+ and exercise faith in your heart that god raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.
10 for with the heart one exercises faith for righteousness, but with the mouth one makes public declaration+ for salvation.
11 for the scripture says: no one who rests his faith on him will be disappointed.+
What about this verse in the NWT
For just as the Father raises the dead up and makes them alive,+ so the Son also makes alive whomever he wants to.+ 22 For the Father judges no one at all, but he has entrusted all the judging to the Son,+ 23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
Does this not prove the trinity? How would a JW defend this as not being a trinity or Jesus being Equal with God from their own bible?
