Member “Witness” at this forum has taken exception to the NWT’s rendering of 2 Cor. 5:20 as “substitutes for Christ”:

https://www.theworldnewsmedia.org/topic/57458-five-year-old-raped-by-jehovahs-witness/

She states, “There is only one translation that I have found for 2 Cor 5:20, that throws in the word “substitute” – not just once, but twice – the NWT.”

What's the real story here? Is there any justification for the idea of substitution for Christ in this verse? A short one-page essay is attached.

  In “The DaVinci Code” novel, the Pope had an albino assassin, sort of a 00VII, as a part of Opus Dio, the Jesuits, which was quite believable ….. if you know Catholic History. Little is known about the secret NY Triad Cabal known as “The Librarians”….. ……BROUHAHAHAHAA

  JWI was on the verge of doing so but couldn’t find your card in the card catalogue—none of which would have happened had he heeded my urging to modernize.
