9. What other word could Paul have used to make it clear that Jesus was the first one born?

10. In John 3:16, Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. Again, this verse is used by JWs to “prove” that
Jesus had a beginning, because He was begotten of God. What Greek word is translated “begotten?”

11. What does this Greek word mean?

12. How does understanding the meaning of this word help us understand about Jesus as begotten?

13. Micah 5:2 tells us the ___________________ of Jesus, not when he came into being.

14. Explain how God the Father could be the head of Christ as stated in I Cor. 11:3 and I Cor. 15:28?

7.5 Let’s Personalize this Lesson…

Let’s take a few minutes and pray for the next JW you meet and get to talk with. Let’s pray that
the Holy Spirit will touch his/her mind so that they can understand the truth that you will be
presenting. Let’s pray that you can remember and recall each of these verses and the ideas in
the Witnessing Notes. Let’s pray that your JW friend will see that Jesus is the great IAM, eternal
God. You need to understand that unless your JW friend will acknowledge Jesus for who he is,
God in flesh, he cannot be saved (John 8:58). So, it is important that God do a work in his mind and
heart.
