That's what the Watchtower told you. Think. Why was Israel called "Firstborn"? Why was David called "Firstborn"? Think. Read the Scriptures.
- Colossians 1:15 - "He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;" (Colossians 1:15)
- Revelation 3:14 - "And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God’s creation." (Revelation 3:14)
- John 1:18 "No one has ever seen God. It is the only begotten god, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known." (John 1:18)
- Romans 8:29 - "For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn within a large family." (Romans 8:29)
- Colossians 1:18 - "He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might come to have first place in everything." (Colossians 1:18)
Jesus before his incarnation was an immortal god, with an angelic form or morphe, and despite that he chose to empty himself and adopt the mortal form of an earthly man.
Philippians 2:6-8 - "who, although he was existing in God’s form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God. No, but he emptied himself and took a slave’s form and became human. More than that, when he found himself in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, yes, death on a cross." (Philippians 2:6-8, NWT)
