Hi, guys —

• Why did Jehovah Witness' change John 1:1?

A friend of mine who is a Jehovah Witness told me that the word "god" in John 1 is different from the word God, so that Jesus was "a god", not God.

• Is this true?

He gave me this:

En Arche en ho logos kai ho logos en pros ton theon kai theos en ho logos

• Also are they the only ones that changed God to god in the bible or are there other religions?

I hope you answer and thank you!

Hi, guys —

If you could please answer this very important question, it would be appreciated.

I have a friend who is a Jehovah Witness and we were talking about Jesus being God. I told him one of the ways you can know He is God is because the Bible says God created everything alone and it also says Jesus was the Creator, but he says creation was through Jesus, not that Jesus was the Creator. This was his response to the passages I gave him:

From Isaiah, the (parenthesis) are his comments

"You are God, You alone (by himself is God, not three persons in one), .... You have made heaven and earth. (but not necessarily by himself)

Another version:

I am the LORD, who makes all things (but not necessarily by himself), who stretches out the heavens all alone, who spreads abroad the earth by myself. (He roams wherever without anyone, He doesn't need anyone, He is the Almighty.)

Isaiah 44:24

Please can you also explain these passages to me:

• Proverbs 8:27-30
• John 1:3).

They seem to support his theory.
