JFWs do not believe in the deity of Christ. Our King James Bible clearly shows the deity of Christ. The NIV et al obscure & mystify this important doctrine. For those that want to be able to show the deity of Christ from your King James 1611, here are a few scriptures that very directly attest to it. [For many other scriptures proving the deity of Jesus Christ, you may wish to visit http://www.jesus-is-lord.com/jesusgd2.htm ] "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED ON in the world, RECEIVED UP into glory." --1 Timothy 3:16 "But unto the SON he saith, 'Thy throne, O GOD, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom'...And, 'Thou, LORD, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands.'" -- Hebrews 1:8, 10 "I and my Father are ONE." --Jesus Christ, John 10:30 "...CHRIST JESUS...being in the FORM OF GOD, thought it not robbery to be EQUAL WITH GOD: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." --Philippians 2:5-8 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the FATHER, THE WORD, AND THE HOLY GHOST: and THESE THREE ARE ONE." --1 John 5:7 "... feed the church of GOD, which he hath PURCHASED WITH HIS OWN BLOOD." --Acts 20:28 "Hereby perceive we the love of GOD, because HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE for us..." --1 John 3:16 "And they stoned Stephen, calling upon GOD, and saying, LORD JESUS, receive my spirit." --Acts 7:59 "For unto us A CHILD IS BORN, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER, The Prince of Peace." --Isaiah 9:6 "And Thomas answered and said unto him [JESUS], My Lord and MY GOD." --John 20:28 "GOD...hath in these last days spoken unto us by his SON...who being the brightness of his glory, and the EXPRESS IMAGE OF HIS PERSON..." --Hebrews 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, AND DWELT AMONG US, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." --John 1:1, 14 "Philip saith unto him, 'Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.' Jesus saith unto him, 'Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me Philip? HE THAT HATH SEEN ME HATH SEEN THE FATHER; and how sayest thou then, 'Shew us the Father?''" -- John 14:8-9 "...CHRIST, who is the IMAGE OF GOD..." --II Corinthians 4:4 "...glory of GOD in the FACE OF JESUS CHRIST." --II Corinthians 4:6 "...they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, GOD WITH US." --Matthew 1:23 "For in [Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." -- Colossians 2:9 "The voice of him [John the Baptist] that crieth in the wilderness, PREPARE ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway FOR OUR GOD." -- Isaiah 40:3 THESE PEOPLE DID NOT UNDERSTAND THAT JESUS WAS GOD AND THOUGHT HE BLASPHEMED WHEN HE TOLD THE TRUTH-- "The Jews answered [Jesus], saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that THOU, BEING A MAN, MAKEST THYSELF GOD." -- John 10:33 for Jesus' sake, sis. tracy -- http://www.jesus-is-lord.com ...I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, Neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
