Hi I just signed up, because JW,s fascinate me. It reminds me of the King in the bible who took the pen knife and cut away what he didn't want from the Word of God and threw it in the fire. I mean if Jehovah is God why can't he preserve his Word? Jesus said in John 5:39 "You search the scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me ."But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life. That sounds pretty uncomplicated, now lets see how would a good jw fix it to make their jesus fit into their little god box. How exactly do you interpret. John 8:24. because in the end its the only one that matters and please by all means check your greek interlinear { if you do not believe that IAM HE you will die in your sins}.Which by jw teaching is not really a big deal. But Jesus thought it was the most important thing. he said in mark 8:36 "For what profits a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul'. But jw teaching paradise earth is all they need. He paid a debt he did not owe, you owe a debt you can not pay. It is so easy even a child can comprehend it Father I'm sorry I have sinned against YOU I give You, LORD Jesus the rest of my life, please change me into the person You created me to be Amen. Why make it so hard, He didn't mean it to be, He loves you and wants a relationship with you. Once You come to Him he answerers Your prayers and You know Your HIs. I admire jws I know they are trying to please god, their own version, of who they want him to be.(That's idolatry by the way).A SIN. But its not the God who revealed Himself in the PERSON of CHRIST.

The mistranslation of John 8.58
by Wonderment injohn 8.58 is one of those scriptures which translators often mis-translate.. i am aware this text is defended with passion either way by its advocates.
many insist the "i am" rendering found in many versions is correct.
others defend the "i have been" or "i was" readings of other versions.
