(Please Note: if you would like an edited and expanded PDF version of this study for reference purposes, click the following link: More Watch Tower Error) Today I spent nearly an hour and a half with a Jehovah’s Witness couple speaking about the gospel and imputation, among other things. In doing so, I picked up the…
On page 1729 of the 2013 Revised Version of the New World Translation, the editors of the text inserted this wording; Image taken from the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, 2013 Revision (PDF download) Today I had a conversation with two Jehovah’s Witness ladies, and we spoke a bit about their translation.…
A few weeks ago, the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society (WTBTS, better known as the Jehovah’s Witnesses) released their 2013 revision of the New World Translation, their translation of the Bible. Prior to the 2013 revision, the NWT already had a great deal of errors in the text, to include inserted “others” in brackets…
It’s Saturday morning and you just completed a long work week. As you are lying in bed, attempting to get some well deserved shut-eye (unless you have young children), you hear a knock at the door. As you open it, two to four nicely dressed individuals greet you and would like to tell you the…

However, there is a rescuing device that the Witness will fall back on and that device is found in…
A few posts ago, I noted that the Jehovah’s Witness translation of the Bible, the New World Translation, alters the english rendering of Colossians 1:16, which states that Christ created “all things.” Contrary to the correct rendering of “panta,” or, “all things” (the Greek uses τὰ πάντα – see note below from the BDAG), the Witnesses proclaim that Christ…
Here is a wonderful lecture by apologist Dr. James R. White on the Jehovah’s Witnesses. This teaching is packed with need-to-know info on this dangerous group. I’m sure you will find it quite helpful. I suggest that you pay special attention to the information that Dr. White relays on the New World Translation; the Jehovah’s…
