09/19/23 HE IS NOT "A" GOD

The false view of The Watch Tower religion is that Jesus is "a god," Which is based on their errant translation of John 1:1. Though the Greek does not include the definite article, the immediate context and the fact that the same sentence and grammar structure is used in many other passages, makes it clear that the phrase, "and the word was God." is referring to the only God, the True and Living God, the God of the Old Testament, the God Who is called Alpha and Omega (First and Last, Beginning and Ending, before Whom there was no God and after Whom there will be no God).

Linguistically, Scripturally, Theologically and Historically our translation which says, "and the word was God" is accurate, and we are correct in saying Jesus was God and is God (which indicates that Jesus is THE GOD), rather than saying that Jesus is, "a god" or "another god," or some exalted creature, or some advanced spiritual being.
