    1 Corinthians 15:3-5

    For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:and that he was buriednad that he rose again from the dead according to the scripptures, and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve. (KJV)

    NEW NWT to follow....

    "I don't understand what you mean. ..." Slimboyfat, above

    Who, me???

    I love the sly insertion of Watchtower-Corporation's-power-reinforcing "scriptures" into the NEW New World Translation scriptures....

    No the original poster. Is he proposing a revision of the NWT or what? Surely that would be a copyright violation.

    John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (KJV)

    In [the] beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god. (NWT)

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god, and at the same time was Michael, simultaneously a god and (the only) archangel at the same time. (NEW NWT) (Footnote in NNWT: "the Word was a god" is not to indicate that the Word was actually a god, but anarthrously was godlike, merely had the qualities associated with godship without being a god. At no time was the Word a god, but scholars have found that the translation "the Word was a god" is evident as being entirely accurate and best indicates the Word's grammatical anarthrous state.)

    And by the way, Captain Obvious's post is brilliantly subtle, suggesting, as it does, the deepest qualities inherent in the NWT.

    Slimboyfat, don't think copyright, think tongue in cheek. Or telling satire.

    Matthew 11:30

    Current: For my yoke is kindly and my load is light.

    Proposed: For my organization's yoke is legalistic and authoritative, and its load is five meetings per week, field service, watchtower studies and much more than you could ever do.

    “Keep on, then, guessing if your seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these [other] burdens will be added to YOU, while you figure how to finance it all, and hold your breath for confirmation." -- Matt 6:33
