This is the Contents page and part #1 of my new series, "Jesus is Jehovah!" by topic, based on my morning `quiet time' Bible reading.
[Above (click to enlarge): "Jesus is Yahweh" wheel, Cetnar, W.I. & J., 1983, "Questions for Jehovah's Witnesses," Bill & Joan Cetnar: Kunkletown PA, Reprinted, 2001, back cover. Old Testament passages about Jehovah (Yahweh) that are applied in the New Testament to Jesus are on diametrically opposite sides of the wheel.]
It follows on from my "Jesus is Jehovah in the New Testament" series, the last post in which was Jesus is Jehovah in Ephesians!. Many of the topics are similar to those in that series and in my post Jesus is Jehovah! on my CED blog (before I started this blog).
I will post pages on each topic and link them back to this page. So click on a link to go to that page. At this early stage the Contents are incomplete. I will add new topics as they occur to me in my Bible reading.
The Bible version I will mostly be using is the English Standard Version because it is more faithful than other modern versions to the underlying Hebrew and Greek text.

Jesus said, "The Father is greater than I am."
ReplyDeleteJehovah God is our almighty God, and Jesus Christ is his son. J.W'S don't spin the Bible for enhanced eye candy like all the others do, we simply practice our faith according to the true & pure form of Christianity. Also, we don't pass around the money basket like everyone else.
