   Jesus continuously criticized the Scribes and Pharisees for their not   
   following the Bible at the time. For example:   
      
   Mt 23:33   
   "31.  "Therefore you are witnesses against yourselves that you are   
   sons of those who murdered the prophets.   
    32.  "Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers' guilt.   
    33.  "Serpents, brood of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation   
   of hell?? (NKJV)   
      
   Hell = Gehenna, not hades

   Yes, just as Jesus himself said about himself: "I am God's Son", not   
   God.

   Yet, God had His name in His Bible around 7000 times. The prophets in   
   the OT had no problem saying His real name.   
   God NEVER said His name was too sacred to pronounce. That was done by   
   uninspired men.

   Done that. They match the Bible perfectly. (2 Tim 3:16)

   Yet there is those that just claim that, but Jesus rejects them:   
      
   21.  "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the   
   kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.   
    22.  "Many will say to Me in that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not   
   prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many   
   wonders in Your name?'   
    23.  "And then I will declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from   
   Me, you who practice lawlessness!'

   >Jeremiah 29:13 – “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search   
   >for me with all your heart.”

   Pure nonsense. But see what I mean? chopping on the NWT spreads false   
   ideas about it. So I use the same Bibles that most people use.   
      
   As for the NWT, I compare different translations to it, for more   
   accuracy.

   I can prove the other Bibles are full of errors. You think NWT is bad,   
   wait till you see most other Bibles.
