3. The title Lord is freely used in both Testaments to refer to God and Jesus. In the Old Testament the Hebrew word for Lord was Adonai. In the Septuagint and the New Testament the word translated \u201cLord\u201d is Kurios. Both Adonai and Kurios were used for God by the Jews.\u201d Josh McDowell & Bart Larson, Jesus: A Biblical Defense of His Deity<\/em> (San Bernardino: Here\u2019s Life<\/span>, 1983), 33.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Although most early Christians believed in Jesus\u2019 divinity, the church didn\u2019t clarify what that meant until the Council of Nicaea in 325 A. D., when the Roman emperor Constantine convened church leaders together to deal with Arius\u2019s view that Jesus was a created being. However, after an intense debate over the meaning of the apostles\u2019 words about Jesus in the New Testament, all but two of 318 church leaders reaffirmed the majority Christian belief that he is fully God, co-eternal, co-equal and with the Father and Holy Spirit (See \u201cMona Lisa\u2019s Smirk\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Martin writes, \u201cContrary to the translations of The Emphatic Diaglott and the New World Translation (of the Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses) the Greek grammatical construction leaves no doubt whatsoever that this is the only possible rendering of the text\u2026.Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses in their New World Translation Appendix 773-777 attempt to discredit the Greek text on this point, for they realize that if Jesus and Jehovah are \u201cOne\u201d in nature their theology cannot stand\u2026.\u201d Walter Martin, The Kingdom of the Cults<\/em> (Minneapolis, Minn: Bethany, 1974), 75.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
