Who's Driving, Jesus Or Jehovah?

Who's Driving, Jesus Or His Father Jehovah God?

Question: How many individuals can drive the same car at the same time?
Answer: One, if you want to get anywhere.

Psalms 110: 1 - 5 is a prophetic writing by King David (with double meaning) of which one of those meanings was prophecy of a communication that would take place from Jehovah to his Son Jesus many, many years after it was written. In fact the prophecy would not actually come true for many years after Jesus' resurrection and not completely for a while - even after Jesus is living back in heaven with his Father.

Psalms 110: 1 - 5 (see also Matthew 22: 41 - 46)
Psalms says,
(NWT)
1 The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord is:“Sit at my right hand Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”
2 The rod of your strength Jehovah will send out of Zion, [saying:]“Go subduing in the midst of your enemies.”
3 Your people will offer themselves willingly on the day of your military force. In the splendors of holiness, from the womb of the dawn, You have your company of young men just like dewdrops.
4 Jehovah has sworn (and he will feel no regret):“You are a priest to time indefinite According to the manner of Mel·chiz´e·dek!”
5 Jehovah himself at your right hand Will certainly break kings to pieces on the day of his anger.

(King James Version) Psalms 110
[1] The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
[2] The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
[3] Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
[4] The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
[5] The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.

Based on the above verses - At some point Jehovah (God) intended to let his Son Jesus take the wheel in heaven. That is after Jehovah saw to it that Jesus' enemies were out of the way first.

When was this prophecy actually fulfilled you say?

I'm tired of that 1914 crap you say?

Fine - A specific date, and or time is not important. However, knowing whether or not one is living during a described time, or whether something has actually taken place based upon the signs and/or warnings given is . . . . . .

We know that when Jesus ascended back into heaven after his resurrection - that he went to sit at his Father's right hand, however it would be some time (according to earthly, human measurements of time see 2 nd. Peter 3: 8) before Jesus' enemies were made into a footstool for his feet. Or in other words defeated and kicked out of heaven. There are several scriptures to point out here, but for the sake of time I'll quote: Ephesians 1: 20

Ephesians 1: 20 (NWT)
20 with which he has operated in the case of the Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places

Ephesians 1: 20 (King James)
[20] Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

When Were Jesus' Enemies Kicked Out Of Heaven In Order To Become A Footstool For His Feet?

Let's go back a little bit: While still living on the earth with his disciples, Jesus was asked by them: "“Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?” Matt. 24: 3 (NWT)

(KJV) Matt. 24: 3 says, "Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"

Jesus answered them (in part) as follows:
"6 YOU are going to hear of wars and reports of wars; see that YOU are not terrified. For these things must take place, but the end is not yet.
7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another.
8 All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress.
9 “Then people will deliver YOU up to tribulation and will kill YOU, and YOU will be objects of hatred by all the nations on account of my name.
10 Then, also, many will be stumbled and will betray one another and will hate one another.
11 And many false prophets will arise and mislead many;
12 and because of the increasing of lawlessness the love of the greater number will cool off.
13 But he that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved.
14 And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come. Matthew 24: 6 - 14

Not only has Jesus told his disciples what to look for in order to know that the "end" is near (a different kind of coming), but also the signs to look for that will indicate that Jesus is ruling as King in heaven - thus meaning that his enemies have finally been made a footstool for his feet (aka kicked out of heaven), thus allowing Jesus to TAKE THE WHEEL from his Father Jehovah (leave his right), and drive.

Are We Now Living In The Time Of Jesus Ruling With His Enemies As A Footstool For His Feet?

Yes - We are. Jesus Is Driving!

The earth has been for many years, and is currently experiencing all the things Jesus told his Disciples would happen as mentioned in Matthew 24: 6 - 14

Revelation 12: 12 - (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."

But the Devil was kicked out of heaven long before Jesus came to the earth you say!?

Not so!

The Bible Says, Revelation 12: 7 - 12 (KJV)
"[7] And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, [8] And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
[9] And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
[10] And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
[11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
[12] Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Verse eleven tells us that this kicking Satan and his Angels (aka Jesus' enemies) out of heaven was made possible - by the blood of the Lamb (aka Jesus' blood), therefore we know that this scene took place sometime after Jesus had died, been resurrected, and had gone back to heaven and sat at his Father (Jehovah's) right hand until the time was right.

So there you have it!

Jesus is driving right now! He is in charge. He is our KING, and Master.

Jesus came for many reasons:
1. He was sent by his Father יהוה
2. To show us what his Father Jehovah is like - Therefore, If you know Jesus, you know the Father.
3. To provide a spiritual resurrection (or awakening of the spiritually dead, those who sleep) with knowledge of truth.
4. To teach us what his Father Jehovah wants from us.
5. To show us how to survive in this world infested by Satan and his Angels until the time for their final destruction comes someday.
6. To someday provide a physical resurrection of the dead (aka those who sleep in death and are in graves) both righteous and unrighteous.
7. To ultimately overcome and conquer death both spiritually and physically caused by sin and separation from God.

Question: Will Jehovah (God) ever take back the wheel?

Answer: Yes, someday.


1st. Corinthians 15: 25 - 28 says,
(NWT)
25 For he must rule as king until [God] has put all enemies under his feet.
26 As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing.
27 For [God] “subjected all things under his feet.” But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that it is with the *exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone.

1st. Corinthians 15: 25 - 28
(KJV)
[25] For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
[26] The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
[27] For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is *excepted, which did put all things under him.
[28] And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

* exception (meaning) something excepted; an instance or case not conforming to the general rule.
* excepted (meaning) To leave out; exclude:

Hell?

What The h*ll is HELL anyway? Are you going there?

Do you know where the word hell came from? Does the bible really say that "bad" people are all going to a place of no return, where they will be tortured, and tormented for eternity? Does Jehovah God get enjoyment out of torturing his human creation?Has man altered God's word to use it to control people with fear and guilt, ie. hell fire?So, what is HELL anyway?

Trinity Doctrine, A False Teaching Of Man, Council of Nicaea


The trinity doctrine, is a false doctrine of Man that teaches ANOTHER JESUS as warned in the Bible at - 2nd. Cor. 11: 3,4).

That is to say, it teaches a Jesus that greatly differs from how Jesus spoke of himself in clear SIMPLE language throughout scripture.In 325, the Council of Nicaea adopted a term for the relationship between the Son and the Father that from then on was seen as the hallmark of orthodoxy; it declared that the Son is "of the same substance" (ὁμοούσιος) as the Father.

This was further developed into the formula "three persons, one substance."The Council of Nicaea was reluctant to adopt language NOT FOUND IN SCRIPTURE, and ultimately did so only after one particular man showed how all strictly biblical language could also be interpreted to support his belief that there was a time when the Son(Jesus) did not exist - see Proverbs 8: 22 - 31


The Confession of the Council of Nicaea said little about the Holy Spirit.[21] The doctrine of the divinity and personality of the Holy Spirit was developed by Pope Athanasius I of Alexandria (c 293 - 373) in the last decades of his life.Athanasius eventually "invented dialogue to ridicule his adversaries", and used "suppression and distortion" to serve his own means.

With that in mind, and with the fact that the Council of Nicaea was reluctant to adopt language NOT FOUND IN SCRIPTURE, but ultimately did so, THERE IS REASON FOR TRINITARIANS to question this man made doctrine and the motives behind it.

The Bible gives these warnings: James 3: 14 - 16 says,[14] But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and LIE NOT AGAINST THE TRUTH.[15] This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.[16] For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.

The Big Question Here Is – Does The Bible Contradict Itself?


There are only two possible answers. Yes or No.

Matthew 5: 37 says,
“Just let your word Yes, mean Yes, your No, No, for what is in excess of these is from the wicked one.”

HERE WE GO

ISAIAH 6: 1 AND JOHN 12: 41

I’m guessing that the point YOUTUBE USER is trying to make about ISAIAH 6: 1 is - yes, indeed - man has seen God with his own eyes, and lived to talk about it on top of that.


The second point I'm guessing that YOUTUBE USER is trying to make in regard to JOHN 12: 41 is that Isaiah is speaking of God. Since I'm guessing YOUTUBE USER believes Jesus is literally God, then my assumption is probably correct. However we will soon see if Isaiah is speaking of Jehovah God, or a separate, mighty servant of God, Jesus the Son of God.

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ACCUSE GOD OF – THAT IS, OF BEING A LIAR.

at Exodus 33:20 God said to Moses: “You cannot see My face; for no man can see Me and live.”

On the other hand,
Genesis 32:30 records Jacob as saying: “For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”

Now, in the above verses (Exodus 33: 20 & Genesis 32: 30) it appears as if Jacob is proving God’s own words to Moses at Exodus 33: 20 –
to be a lie.

YIKERS! That is a very serious situation if true.

Titus 1: 2 says that GOD CANNOT LIE - “In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;”

SO WHAT GIVES?????

Let’s consider the situations in the Bible where individuals referred to seeing God.

In Jacob’s case at Genesis 32: 30 it says (KJV) “And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”

Just a little before Jacob says this, he experiences the following with the same being of which he is never told the name, but he refers to this individual as “a man

Genesis 32: 24,25, says,
[24] And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. [25] And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.


Then in verse 29 we are told that Jacob never did get the name of the man he wrestled with – “And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.”

Remember this part about the name not being given to him as you read further below.

The fact that Jacob did not get the name or the actual identity of this “man” he wrestled with revealed to him - is reason to conclude that Jacob wrestled with “The Angel Of The LORD” or “an Angel of The Lord” that is mentioned SEVENTY FOUR times in the Bible. This Angel of the LORD often appeared to God’s people to represent God, and therefore God also spoke through such an angel.


For a perfect example of this - read Judges 6: 11 – 16, where it clearly states that the angel of the LORD appears to Joash, and then later in verse 16 it says, “And the LORD said unto him”, - - - - - Joash was talking to God, but through the presence or representation of God provided by the Angel of the LORD, , , , , therefore it can be said that Joash was looking at, and speaking with God indirectly.

Other times individuals spoke of seeing God, when what they really saw was a representation of God but not God himself are as follows:

Exodus 3: 2 – Moses is mentioned as “seeing” God in a burning bush, however again it is worded as such,
“[2] And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.”


Did Moses See God?
Answer No. He saw an image that he, as a human could comprehend, or understand. The bush was a representation of God—an occasion where something took God’s place.

The same applies to Job when God appeared to him in a whirlwind at Job 38: 1

What about in Judges 13: 22, which says,
“And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.”

Did Manoah and his wife see God?
NO.
Verse 18 in the same book answers this question when Manoah asked for the name of who was speaking to him.
Judges 13: 18 says this happened when Manoah asked the name of the Angel of the Lord, “And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?”

Compare to Genesis 32: 29 - Where Jacob never did get the name of the man he wrestled with.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, the question now is , , , , , DOES GOD’S OWN WORD (THE BIBLE) LIE?

SINCE GOD CANNOT LIE (Titus 1: 2), and God himself said that no man can see his face and live (Exodus 33:20), we must let our Yes, mean Yes, and agree that we believe God when he says something. Otherwise we are calling God a liar ourselves.

THAT’S A BIG NO NO.

It is now safe to conclude, , , that we’ve established that each time a human is said to have seen God in the Bible, what they really have seen, is a representation, or representative of God, not the literal face of God, or in God’s own words, they would die.

Just as the “angel of the LORD” represented God and was the voice through which God spoke to people –

JESUS WAS/IS ALSO A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF HIS FATHER JEHOVAH GOD.

How do I know?

The Bible says so at John 1: 18
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.”

WHO DECLARED GOD?

JESUS - HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON DID, THAT’S WHO.

Now Back To The Verses YOUTUBE USER told us (Jehovah's witnesses) to look up.

Isaiah 6: 1 says,
“In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.”


In light of what was just discussed, and in light of God’s own words, that no man can see him and live, we must conclude that:

1. That God is not a liar, and
2. That what was being seen here in a vision was a representation of God on a throne.}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOW LET'S MOVE ON:

John 12: 41
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

Remember YOUTUBE USER, you said that you wanted us (Jehovah's witnesses) to read
all in context.

So Be It.

QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER
1. Who was Isaiah speaking of after seeing his glory?
2. Was Isaiah speaking of God himself, or of another Servant of God?

If you read the full chapter IN CONTEXT, you will read that Jesus was sitting with others at a feast that was thrown after Lazarus was raised from the dead. Certain people were asking to see Jesus because of what they had heard about him and Lazarus, and other miracles.

Philip, and Andrew tell Jesus that certain people were looking for him.

Jesus assures them that he is soon to be glorified. In other words, don’t worry - they’ll know who I am in just a moment.

John 12: 23 says, “And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.”

Jesus went on to say,
John 12: 27 - 30
[27] Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.[28] Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. [29] The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him. [30] Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

After this happened, people nearby either heard it and new it was a message from above (thus recieving confirmation from Jehovah that Jesus was the promised Messiah), or they did not hear it, and wrote it off as thunder. Not only was Jehovah God’s name being glorified at that very moment in verse 28, but also, Jesus was being identified to those who heard - as the “Christ” the promised Messiah.

Because of this - some questioned Jesus as follows,
John 12: 34 says,
[34] The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever (see Prov. 8: 22 - 31) and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?”

The people are asking WHO IS THIS SON OF MAN?

The answer to this question lies in the following verse:

John 12: 38 says,
“That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath THE ARM OF THE LORD been revealed?”

The Son Of Man (Jesus) is not God himself, but the prophesied ultimate representation of God in this case referred to as
THE ARM OF THE LORD - (LORD meaning Jehovah).

Compare John 12: 38 to:

Isaiah 53: 1 – 12
speaks of Jesus (JEHOVAH’S ARM) in the following verses.
[1] Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed? [2] For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. [3] He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. [4] Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. [5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [6] All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. [7] He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. [8] He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. [9] And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. [10] Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. [11] He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. [12] Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

CONCLUSION IN REGARD TO
Isaiah 6: 1 compared to John 12: 41

There is no comparison. Isaiah 6: 1 is speaking of what has been seen in a vision as a representation of God (Jehovah) on his throne, not Jesus.

John 12: 41 - speaks of Isaiah seeing his glory, who’s glory did he see? He saw the ARM OF GOD, also known to us as Jesus, the promised Messiah, the Son of man.

Isaiah 51: 9 speaks of THE ARM OF THE LORD as the one who cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon.
“[9] Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not it that hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?”

Note: Rahab is also the name of a sea-demon and, connected with this, a poetical or symbolic name applied to Egypt in Psalm 87:4, Psalm 89:10 and Isaiah 51:9, signifying "the proud one." - - thus further drawing the conclusion that in these cases, JESUS, or the ARM OF JEHOVAH, was being spoken of in prophetic poem.


Isaiah 52: 10 says,
The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

THE ARM OF THE LORD (aka Jesus) IS GOD’S HOLY SERVANT
Isaiah 52: 13 – 15 says,
13: Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high. 14: As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men: 15: So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.

YOUTUBE USER ASKED US “JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES” TO CONSIDER
COLOSSIANS 2: 8, 9 & ISAIAH 43: 10


Colossians 2: 8,9 says,
[8] Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. [9] For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

What is this fullness?

JESUS FULLY MIRRORS OR REPRESENTS Jehovah God his Father.

Colossians 1: 15 says,
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

The fullness of Authority in the order of the Godhead, of which nothing is above him except Jehovah his Father.


1st. Corinthians 11: 3 confirms, But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

Colossians 1: 18, 19 says,
18. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;

YOUTUBE USER asked Jehovah's witnesses to consider Isaiah 43: 10 (especially the last part) which says, “[10] Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.”

In consideration of the overall "Big Picture" as seen in the entire Bible, Isaiah 43: 10 must be referring to the term GOD in the ultimate sense.

JEHOVAH IS THE GOD OF gods! Deuteronomy 10: 17

HOW CAN JEHOVAH BE THE GOD OF gods, IF THERE ARE NO OTHER gods TO BE THE GOD OF?


SIMPLE EXPLANATION:
REMEMBER GOD SPEAKING TO PEOPLE IN THE PAST THROUGH PROPHETS, AND ANGELS WHO REPRESENTED HIM, AS HIS SERVANTS?

GOD USES JESUS IN THE SAME WAY – (AS HIS ARM, HIS MESSENGER), his right hand man.

Hebrews 1: 1 – 4 explains this and so much more.

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,
whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins,
sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.


So, Jesus is not God himself, but as the perfect representative of his Father God (Jehovah), Jesus is powerful, mighty, and god-like in every sense of the word, or Word, as Jesus is referred the Word which further explains how Jesus is a complete, and full representative of Jehovah God in all things.

Even Satan is god-like, and is called a god - 2nd. Cor. 4: 4 (Satan possesses god-like supernatural powers) Does this mean that Satan is not a god? He certainly posseses his own powers as his evil deeds to not come from God, , , , , therefore Satan is a god in the sense that he possesses supernatural powers of which he can use in practicing his own free will. The story of Job proves this point (Job 2: and so on)
2nd. Cor. 4: 4
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Satan however, is not immortal as he will be destroyed someday (Rev. 20: 10)

Jesus however was granted immortality and exhaulted by his Father Jehovah, after Jesus fullfulled his role as the Messiah, and was resurrected back up to heaven.
Hebrews 1: 4 says,
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Philippians 2: 9 says,
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
1st. Timothy 6: 16 says,
Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
Romans 6: 9 says,
Christ, now that he has been raised up from the dead, dies no more; death is master over him no more.”
Indeed, contrasting the resurrected Jesus with earthly rulers, Paul describes him as the only one among them having immortality. Jesus will remain “alive forever.” His life is “indestructible.”— Hebrews 7:15-17, 23-25; 1 Timothy 6:15, 16.

NOW IN REGARD TO THE REMAINING VERSES YOUTUBE USER ASKED JEHOVHA'S WITNESSES TO LOOK UP:

Isaiah 9: 6
John 1: 1
Deuteronomy 10: 17
Revelation 17: 14


It is safe to say that much of what has been typed above answers the challenge that has been posed with these above verses - that is whether or not Jesus is God, and God is Jesus.

However in brief if I may:
Isaiah 9: 6 would suggest that since this is talking about Jesus, it equals that Jesus is God, when the verse is compared to:
Deuteronomy 10: 17 which says,[17] For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:”

(note: includes explanation of Revelation 17: 14 as well)

Deuteronomy 10: 17 is indeed talking about Jehovah God, and includes the words "God of gods".

In contrast,
Isaiah 9: 6 - DOES NOT include the words "God of gods".

In fact, the words "God of gods" CANNOT BE FOUND anywhere in the New Testament or (Greek scriptures).

Revelation 17: 14 - is Talking about Jesus (the Son of God), but DOES NOT include the words "God of gods" in it.

Nor are the words "God of gods" found in the following verses pertaining to Jesus in the New testament:
1st. Tim. 6: 15
Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Rev. 19: 16
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

Since we've established that Jesus is the ARM OF THE LORD (the right hand man of God), as the separate, but perfect representative of his Father, and has all things put under him, , , , the following should be considered,

1st. Corinthians 15: 28 says,
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

Now in regard to John 1: 1 says,
[1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

Please compare to Proverbs 8: 22 - 31 in it's entirety.

In the beginning was the Word
Compare to: Proverbs 8: 22 which says,
The LORD possessed me(meaning Jesus) in the beginning of his way, before his works of old."

and the Word was with God
Compare to: Proverbs 8: 27, and 30
(27) When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
(30) Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;

NOW COMPARE PROVERBS 8: 22, and 24 with (begotten) mentioned at John 3: 16, and at John 1: 14.
begotten means: To cause to exist or occur; produce:
Prov. 8: 22 The LORD possessed me(Jesus) in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

Jesus was truly the Word, but was the word literally God?

According to all Biblical evidence, no, but the Word (or God's Son Jesus), is the perfect personification of his Father Jehovah, so much so, that he abides in an unapproachable light that only he can share with his Father Jehovah God, therefore, to us human beings he is truly the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1: 15) "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:"

1st. Timothy 6: 13: 16 says,
13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

In Closing, We Must Answer The Question Once And For All - DOES THE BIBLE CONTRADICT ITSELF?
Most claiming to be Christian will quickly answer “NO” without flinching.
In contrast however many of these same people, with their own misunderstanding of the “Big Picture”, combined with the false teachings they’ve adopted - say otherwise without realizing it in most cases.

The false doctrines many proclaimed Christians accept, not only make the Bible appear to be a big book of contradictions and lies, but also give off the appearance that God is not only fickle, but also as the Devil claims, a big liar.

Nothing has helped the Devil in his quest to convince mankind that God is a liar - more than the false teachings, and doctrines of man.

In the Bible Jehovah God makes this plea to man at Proverbs 27: 11 “Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, that I may make a reply to him(Satan) that is taunting me.”
