When the Bible says that Jesus created all the things that were created, did Jesus tell us He is Michael?

(The archangel Michael )

    No, Jesus created the angelic beings, He is the Creator not a created being as Michael is.

    No. He didn't tell us he is the Word either. He also didn't tell us he's the Prince of Peace. So, what silly point are you trying to make?

    BTW, the Bible does not say that Jesus created all things. The credit for creation goes to the Father, not the Son. As 1 Cor. 8:6 says: "But we know that there is only one God, the Father, who created everything, and we live for him." Also, Heb. 1:2 says: "God promised everything to the Son as an inheritance, and through the Son he created the universe."

    If you'd spend more time reading your Bible and a little less time badmouthing JWs, you just might learn something.

    No one is lying about Jehovah Witnesses but they do lie to themselves and others about the divinity of Jesus. Legitimate scholars in the Biblical languages and manuscripts don’t think much of the NWT. Dr. Bruce Metzger is a well-known scholar whose works are seminary standards. He used the following adjectives when describing the NWT: “a frightful mistranslation,” “erroneous,” “pernicious,” and “reprehensible.” British Bible scholar H.H. Rowley stated that the NWT is “a shining example of how the Bible should not be translated.” He also referred to the NWT as “an insult to the Word of God.” While this list could go on, let me conclude with the words of Dr. William Barclay who stated, “It is abundantly clear that a sect which can translate the New Testament like that is intellectually dishonest.”

    Translators

    Frederick Franz Probably the only person to actually translate. Franz was a liberal arts student at the University of Cincinnati: 21 semester hours of classical Greek, some Latin. Partially completed a two-hour survey course in Biblical Greek in junior year. Self-taught in Spanish, biblical Hebrew and Aramaic

    George Gangas No training in biblical languages. Gangas was a Turkish national who knew Modern Greek. Translated Watchtower publications into Modern Greek.

    Milton Henschel No training in biblical languages.

    Karl Klein No training in biblical languages.

    Nathan Knorr No training in biblical languages

    Albert Schroeder No training in biblical languages. Schroeder majored in mechanical engineering for three years before dropping out.

    I don’t want to seem derogatory to Mr. Franz, but his primary training was in Classical Greek, not biblical Greek. He dropped out of a survey course on that topic. He was self-taught in biblical Hebrew and Aramaic, which is commendable, but does it qualify him as a Bible translator?

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

    King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

    New World Translation

    In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god.

    Wow, that is teaching polytheism, a belief in more than one God!! This is contrary to Duet. 6:4, which declares "Hear o Israel, the Lord our God is One". The scriptures, speaking of Jesus, found in Col. 2:9: declares, "For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily."

    Christians must learn to compare scripture with scripture, they do not contradict each other. God is ONE with three different and distinct manifestations:Father, Son and Holy Spirit. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

    2 The same was in the beginning with God.

    3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

    4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

    5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

    14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth.

    Who is the Word? God who took upon Himself a robe of flesh, became a man with the express purpose of giving His life for ours, to save us from sin. God is without limits, only the human mind will try to limit Him. In His humanity Christ walked among men. In His humanity He prayed to His divinity in Heaven. In His humanity He surrendered His life and died upon the cross for us. But, remember when arose He was fully God!

    After finding the empty tomb Mary told the other disciples that the Lord was risen. However, Thomas was not with them and when told about the Resurrection refused to believe and denied it. However, we read in John 20 that 8 days later when Thomas was with the others Jesus appeared unto them.

    John 20:26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

    27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

    28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God.

    We can not place limits upon God simply because our minds are finite and God's are infinite. I believe Jesus is the Father in Creation, the Son in Redemption and the Holy Spirit in Regeneration.

    Hear, o Israel the Lord our God is One!!!
