I've come to the conclusion I will not be using the new world translation when I preach based on a few factors such as : the legal battle the watchtowers in regarding the 3rd party that was outsourced to complete the book and a man by the name of Johannes Greber who's wife was a spirit medium, also had a hand with the nwt. I'm using the NASB I've done my research and it's been agreed apon by many biblical scholars as one of the best word for word translations. I'm in the process of coming up with some letters that state positive benefits from the bible and give them out. After reading false claims in the watchtower and awake I've realized that I can no longer peddle these magazines. I ended up finding out in the watchtower where they claim Jesus isn't the mediator between God and men. It's now the annoited class and those serving on the governing body. So I'm staying away from what these false mean propagate. I hope everyone is staying strong 💪!
JohnThe New World Translation is the only bible that bears the name of Jehovah nearly 7,000 times so Jehovah must have taken care of it no matter who translated it.

The NWT has been translated with all good intentions and has been meticulously translated albeit still imperfectly done which is not a surprise in this wicked world. It's still make sense to be... moreThe New World Translation is the only bible that bears the name of Jehovah nearly 7,000 times so Jehovah must have taken care of it no matter who translated it.

It's still make sense to better use the NWT than other translations in my opinion.
