None of which you can prove. You are simply repeating what you read at the websites of the usual Jehovah's Witnesses haters.
Besides, why should anything about
any Bible matter to you in light of the fact you started a thread in which you said Christians don't need to read the Bible. According to that thread, Christians should simply follow what their religious "leaders" tell them the Bible says. It doesn't matter if the religious "leaders" are lying through their teeth about what the Bible actually says.
The Bible is beneficial but not necessary for Christians to read.
Why? You should attend Church and hear the holy gospel read during the service or liturgy. Furthermore, the early Christians didn't all have their own pocket Bible to read at home. Not only that but many were illiterate! They learned through listening to the word.
Another point is that reading the Bible often leads to pride and belief that you know more than Church authorities about the faith. This has led to schismatic groups throughout the ages. The most egregious ones came in the 19th and 20th centuries with Mormonism...
We submit ourselves to God and the Church. The early Christians didn't conduct 'Bible studies' and attempt to decipher the meaning of every line of scripture to establish their 'own' interpretation of doctrines. They listened to the Bishops, Priests, and Deacons who learned from the people before them. The Church has its way of casting out heretics and false teachers. Furthermore, the Biblical canon itself is a product of the Church and ancient faith. How do we know the 27 book canon of the New Testament? Many centuries of consensus from the Church and Councils.
Take a look at Colossians 1:15-16 in the NWT compared to the KJV, and NRSV. And you can see how the NWT is translating to downplay the supremacy of Christ and push their theological views. "All other things" is not in the text. Even the "by means of him" would seem to imply that somehow he was used for Creation rather than being the Creator. And the purpose of this writing from Paul is to proclaim that Jesus is God Jehovah. And there are many other verses in the scriptures that demonstrate this as well such as Revelation 22:13 and John 1:1. There is no confusion here. Historical Christianity has believed this throughout the ages. It's always fringe groups and cults who discount this through their own Enlightened view of scripture. Stop the pride just listen to what Paul is saying.
Colossians 1:15-16 (New World Translation)
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;16 because
by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities.
All other things have been created through him and for him.
Colossians 1:15-16 (KJV)
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Colossians 1:15-16 (NRSV)
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, 16 For in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers—all things have been created through him and for him.
