And maybe many titles and qualities missed out, please advise furher. One can but feel awful for the 'holy spirit' if it were part of the godhead, the 'thrid person of the trinity', it was so often unmentioned as necessary for life ....eg Jn 17:3 etc etc. and missed out on all the titles applicable to either the Father or the Son.
Is not the truth simple enough to accept, without any translation bias or interpretation? Centuries of word and meanings changes have not changed any of the above basics and as the NEB says 'This is life eternal; to know thee who alone art truly God, and Jesus Christ whom thou has sent.'
Thank you for reading and thinking of this, and I do not hesitate to say I believe the faith of Jehovah's Witnesses, even after all the negatives you read about on this site. (not all dis-similar to the 1st century ones, or the ones inspected by Christ in the first books of Revelation). I welcome any responses.
