So back to John, in the beginning refers to the eternal state of God beyond time. A changeless, timeless, placeless state from which all that exists and will ever exist comes from. The, I am.That is correct waffle, Mr Gordon needs to and will try to convince that this goes back to a point in time but yet again the Greek Scriptures show up the falsehood perpetrated by the Watchtower society. None of the authors of the Watchtowers New World Translation knew biblical Greek or Hebrew their main concern was producing a translation not true to the scriptures but true to the Watchtower's doctrines.

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
En arkhêi ên ho lógos, kaì ho lógos ên pròs tòn theón, kaì theòs ên ho lógos.

The first phrase contains the word 'was' the form it takes 'en' this word is not anchored in time it points to existence before the present without reference to a point in history. The word “beginning” (archei) can be placed as far back as possible and then push it back some more because it has no point of origin. The Logos or Word did not come into existence at “the beginning,” for the logos antedates that beginning.

There you go, thank you.

We only differ in that I see the Trinity as a spiritual kind of codependence and you see it as, well a Trinity, three in one, one in three.
