John 1:1

Question: I am a Christian but have a Jehovah’s Witness friend who does not believe in the Divinity of Christ. He is seeking to convince me that my Bible is incorrectly translated at John 1:1. My Bible renders the final phrase “and the word was God†and his “New World Translation†says “and the word was a god.†He contends that the Greek phrase “kai theos en ho logos†lacks the definite article “ho†in front of the word theos and therefore the indefinite article “a†must be supplied. What do you say about this?
I seek to provide an answer here. - JS
