  What is the JW theology?

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  by "theology" i mean "the study of god (gk.

  : theos).. jws keep rabbiting on ad nauseum about the trinity teaching being "irrational", "impossible to understand", etc.. i do not want this thread to be about the trinitarian doctrine.. i want to be given an explanation of what a jw believes.

  i have seen so many arrows and spears thrown by jws, i want to know exactly what they are defending.. i want to see an explanation of "god" that is rational and can be understood.. doug.

  a holy spirit leads us to Jehovah, the source of holiness, as well as others, to help them be holy also

  "unless they know and love jehovah first.

  they love "jehovah".

  they discuss how to make sure that though they are in charge, everyone doesn't see them, they see the great and powerful jehovah.... oh.

  Speak for yourself, or whoever you are duly authorised to represent, which does NOT include me. I love you by admonishing you this way, since I know and love the word of Jehovah and apply it in my affairs.

  minimus started a thread asking people to prove that jws don't have the truth.... but, instead of proving they don't, i'd like to see someone prove that the witnesses do have the truth.. this is your thread jw apologists....convince me why you have the truth.. to all you apostates and nay-sayers, please allow the apologists to have their say without harrassing them.

  Jesus is Jehovah's foremost Witness. Even the name Jesus means "Jehovah provides salvation".

  New World Translation, is it the best bible translation?

  by littlebuddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my jw elder friend said to me that the nwt is the best translation of the bible and that scholars have said as much.

  is this true and is it the best?

  are there scholars who disagree?.

  the NWT Reference Bible is meant to be a literal translation, helping the reader via footnotes, Appendices, and other helps so that the reader gets a flavour of the actual thought patterns used by the most credible manuscript copies, factoring out what are known to be errors in Jewish and Catholic tradition.

  the holy spirit is a force to be reckoned with, enabled by Jehovah in whomsoever applies the scriptures with His insight. After all, Jehovah is the giver of every good gift and every perfect present, including whatever we do that is "good" or "perfect".

  when we find the actual originals, we can THEN prove which is the best Bible translation, and NOT before

  If they really are JEHOVAH's Witnesses, then their "Truth" is JEHOVAH's "Truth".
