Your discussions are welcome.

I forget. It's almost like God told me "You know that JW thing? Bad idea. Read your NIV and check out what's wrong with that methodology."

Also, I failed to find the birthday thing, or the xmas thing in the bible, or even *their* bible. Ironically, the biggest recoiling I had to JW-ism was because of the whole birthday/xmas thing, even before the idea to contrast the JW thing with the bible.

Petro:

If you are calling me dishonest, allow me to refer you to a previous post of mine:

Think of the true example of God/Jesus this way:

The fullness of God can be seen as a body.

My hands are quite different from my feet, but they are still me. Just the same, there are differences between God the Father and Jesus Christ, but they are still fully god.

Jesus is still both fully God and fully man (he'd have to be, to pay for all mankind's sin).

I don't deny Jesus's deity, and that excerpt alone should set that fact in stone for you, if anything does at all.

No hate here, I just think you overlooked something.

I strongly disagree with KJV-only theology, but I'm sure we're all in agreement that the NWT != a good bible translation.

It won't allow for a Triune God, but it calls the Word a god (which is absurd without there being multiples.)

I can't believe I used to BE a JW.

Fine.

So we defeated Angelic Man, but he can keep his weapon, as it's not very good anyway.

Angelic Man
Weapon: Modalism Theory

Seriously, your idea of Jehovah God descending, and THEN becoming Jesus Christ, without begetting a Son of God, is a clear example of the heretical doctrine of modalism.

Think of the true example of God/Jesus this way:

The fullness of God can be seen as a body.

My hands are quite different from my feet, but they are still me. Just the same, there are differences between God the Father and Jesus Christ, but they are still fully god.

Jesus is still both fully God and fully man (he'd have to be, to pay for all mankind's sin).

Another thorn in Paul's side was his blindness, due to the light of Jesus christ as He asked why Paul was persecuting Him. That lasted a long time, and Paul even credited some people's kindness by saying that they would be willing to give him their eyes, were it possible.

Any song praising Jesus is good.
