    Wafe, I hope we can see these. I'm not very good at this pasting business:

    John 1:1

    Exodus 7:1

    Hi Wafe

    Welcome to the site. Thanks for the insight, I cant tell right away you should feel at home here.

    Like Crumpet, I'm always keen to learn little bits of info (its much preferable to a 2 hour meeting!), so thanks!

    See you around!

    Hi Wafe, I just found this site a couple of days ago. It is interesting to read your translation of John 1:1. I have struggled to find a reliable reference on whether it should have an indefinite article, and thus supports the trinity or not. I admire you for studying to stage where you can answer your own questions. I have read that a lot of the primitive churches or sects (e.g. the Nestorians) did not believe in a trinity and that its introduction could be attributed to an Egyptian pagan influence.

    Welcome Wafe, if you stick around you will learn lots of things about every aspect of the WTS while having fun.

    In my studies with JWs I have also found many many mistranslations in the NWT--in those "big" passages but also some in seeming irrelevant places, and yet...........when you find a cross reference later in the Scriptures, it becomes apparent that a doctrinal or behavioural bias (theirs) has caused this mistranslation. If someone starts a thread, I will be tempted to post.
