The Colossians 1: 16 passage has word 'Other' Added in
According to the above passage Jesus Created All OTHER things!!
But the word OTHER is NOT In the original - It is added in. Now we will see what John's Passage tells us in John 1: 3
Now we have to ask Our selves - which one of these is correct?? Both can not be Right can they??
The answer is NO!! Only one is correct & as that is the case - then NWT is In Big Error -
Jeremiah 10: 11 - 12 tells us this - NIV: "Tell them this; 'These god's who did not make heavens and earth, will Perish from the earth and from under the heavens. 12 But God Made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding."
If god who Created everything created everything & even NWT in John 1: 3 tells us that that was Jesus - So who is Jesus??
In Revelations 3: 14 NWT does this:
Note how they ALTERED the words?? The Original tells us 'OF THE' & when the word was rendered it reads 'BY' - This completely alters the meaning of the Bible.
Please go through the following passages & see the differences also.

I still have some information to add to this - which will be done soon.
The following is a list of problems that we have found with the New
world Translation. We do
not claim this list to be complete, nor do we claim that all of the
problems are doctrinally
critical, but some are. In many instances the meaning of the Bible
has been changed by
apparently deliberate mistranslation. If anyone knows of any errors,
mistranslation, loose
paraphrases, etc. that we have missed here, please let us know. As
you read this list, please
keep in mind what the Watchtower itself said in the 1984 brochure,
The DIVINE NAME That
Will Endure Forever on page 5:
"If someone deliberately changes or omits part of the contents of the
Bible, he is tampering
with the inspired Word."
The list is followed by a short tract we wrote a few years ago about
one problem we found
with the NWT.

communion was taken weekly, and sometimes
even daily.

Here is the short essay about one of the problems with the NWT:
Tampering with the Inspired Word
The Watchtower Society has a strong dislike of flags, whether American,
State, or another nation's.
This phobia has been carried so far that the text of God's inspired
Word, the Holy Bible, has been
changed to remove the references to the flags of the tribes of Israel.
According to The New Englishman's Hebrew Concordance, the Hebrew word
deh'gel appears
14 times in the Bible. These locations are: Numbers 1: 52; 2: 2, 3,
10, 17, 18, 25, 31, 34; 10: 14,
18, 22, 25; and Song of Solomon 2: 4. The thirteen verses in Numbers
have to do with the
encampment and travel instructions God gave to the people of Israel.
Comparing these verses in the
King James Version, New American Standard Version, New International
Version, and New
World Translation, we find that deh'gel is uniformly rendered "standard"
in the KJV, NASB, and
NIV, and as "[three-tribe] division" in the NWT. All four translations
use "banner" in Song of
Solomon 2: 4.
Hebrew - English lexicons are uniform in their definition of deh'gel.
The New Strong's Exhaustive
Concordance (with lexicons) defines it as: "a flag: - banner, standard."
The New
Brown-Driver-Briggs-Gesenius Hebrew - English Lexicon defines it as:
"standard, particularly of
separate tribes of Israel." Benjamin Davies' Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon
calls it: "banner or
standard." William Osburn, Jr. in his Hebrew - English Lexicon defines
deh'gel as: "standard,
banner." Webster's defines banner as: "1. a piece of cloth bearing
a design, motto, slogan, etc. 2. a
flag." Standard is defined as: "1. any figure or object, esp. a flag
or banner, used as an emblem or
symbol ...".
The Watchtower organization admits that the Hebrew word has the meaning
of standard or banner.
The 1971 book, Aid to Bible Understanding, page 283 states: "Since
the Hebrew expression
de'ghel, rendered "three-tribe division," also means "standard" or
"banner," it is possible that there
were tribal markers as well as family ensigns." Please note that in
the Hebrew lexicons referenced
above, deh'gel never has the meaning "three-tribe division", so the
word "also" is misleading!
The book of Numbers gives specific instructions from God for the nation
of Israel. The New World
Translation leaves out part of the commands given them. God is very
exact in his instructions not to
add to or take away from His Word. Removing God's instructions concerning
the tribal standards is
taking away from the Word.
The 1984 Watchtower brochure, The DIVINE NAME That Will Endure Forever
has this
statement on page 5:
"If someone deliberately changes or omits part of the contents of the
Bible, he is tampering with the
inspired Word."
So, how does the Watchtower explain the deletion of the meaning of the
word deh'gel from the
NWT? The Watchtower, November 15, 1962, page 701 says in part:
"But, someone may protest, how can you say that flags come under that
Scriptural prohibition when
the Bible itself shows that even the Israelites had ensigns or standards
around which their three-tribe
divisions gathered while in the wilderness? (Num. 2:2) In this connection
the comment made in
McClintock and Strong's Cyclopaedia is of interest. After discussing
the Hebrew words used, it
says: "Neither of them, however, expresses the idea which 'standard'
conveys to our minds, viz. a
flag." Furthermore, they were not viewed as sacred, nor were any ceremonies
associated with their
use. They simply served the practical purpose of signs, showing the
people where to gather."
This quotation helps explain why the Watchtower prohibits flag ceremonies,
but does not explain
why they have altered the meaning of the Bible. God told the tribes
to camp and to march
under their standards. This was to be done in divisions of three tribes,
but not under "[three-tribe]
divisions". It was to be done under the flag of the division. The Watchtower
has altered the meaning
of the Word of God!
