Sorry BJB, but you have a different gospel, a JW version of the gospel. (Galatians 1.6-9)

How could this man be the mediator between God and millions of His children if He were not God?

Ohio- it’s very hard to follow your train of thought:
Before you said all things were created BY Jesus Christ. Now you are using the word THROUGH. If you would read through Revelation- written by John, you would find the heavenly realm speaking about God who created all things. Logos- God’s plan, His thought, His idea, His intention, was what brought about all of creation. Creation is not some random thing, some secondary joke, or whatever mankind wants to make it, rather it is here with the intent of God, to fulfill his purpose, which is to head up all creation in Christ. It was a mystery until Christ, according to God’s plan came. His plan became real, expressed, became not theory or mystery, but flesh. God’s plan was to have this MAN take on such a position- the highest in the universe!

I would encourage you once again to read Acts and see what was the gospel spoken, which the people accepted. You really should read through Galatians carefully also- Galatians in no wise presents a Jesus is God gospel, or such warning. Paul gives us the gospel he presents in 1Cor 15. You may want to read through that.

I have no clue what the JW gospel is! God raised Christ Jesus from the dead and set him as head over all things to the church which is his body. The JWs that come to my door seem to have no interest in the Church.

Why are you asking me how this man could be mediator between God and millions of men? Read the scripture! It’s exactly what Paul told Timothy. Very hard to follow your theology, because you forsake the plain written word for things that are not the word, and question the word based upon man’s teachings.

Yes, if WL would have been a minister to recover the church, he would have brought us out of the 4th century dogmas to the scripture. We, including you would have the greatest appreciation for the God and Father of our Lord Jesus, the Holy Spirit would have witnessed to the truth, the church would be built on the rock of Jesus being th Christ, the son of the Living God, and God would have a great testimony, the church would be that pillar and ground of the truth, rather than confusion.

Why are we even discussing this- it’s because there is no trinity teaching in the scripture, there is no Jesus is God gospel presented, and Paul clearly told us there is one God, the Father, and Jesus told us the Father is the only TRUE GOD.
Ohio, accept and live by what is written in the scripture, not by some man-made god!
