    MrGordon,
    If you wish to deny the divinity of Christ by stating that Col 1:17 should include the word "other" because it is found in 1Cor 6:18
    then you are arguing from an absence of evidence. 1 Cor 6:18 does not include the word "other"

    You are putting your faith in a erroneous translation based on faulty circular reasoning.
    There is a Greek word for "other" (heteros) but it is not used in the scriptures you quote.

    1Cor 6:18-19 is stating that not only are sexual sins outside the body but also a sin against your own body which is a temple for the Holy Spirit

    18Flee sexual immorality. Every sin, whatever if a man might do, is outside the body, but the one sinning sexually sins against the own body. 19Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit in you, whom you have from God? And you are not your own,



    There is no getting around the fact that Jesus is a creature. In other words he was created. Also being firstborn means he was God's first creation.
    Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: --King James Bible.

    MrGordon,
    Col 1:16 states that Jesus is the firstborn over all creation because all things where created through him

    15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation, 16 because in Him were created all things in the heavens and upon the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or lordships or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and unto Him.

    MrGordon,
    The addition of the word "other" in both verses is to add to the word of God.
    There is a Greek word for "other" that could be used but is not.
    Colossians does not say that Jesus was created but that everything was created through Jesus

    MrGordon,
    Why do you continue to " deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ."
