No, I'm asking if the original Hebrew and Greek Scriptures' words need to be remove or added.
So...you are asking if we should change the inspired original writings or the copies that have survived for thousands of years? Why are you asking that?

As there are translators that add words to the Bible but cannot be found in the original Hebrew or Greek.

No need, because I believed KJV translation of the John 1:1 is correct.

So do I. John explains that Jesus' was with God, meaning he was with Almighty God. It doesn't say that Jesus was Almighty God.

Good point. Jesus is a "god," meaning he was an important, powerful individual, and not God Almighty, because how could he be WITH God Almighty and BE God Almighty?

Is there the word "Almighty" in that verse? Even the Father did not say He is Almighty when addressing Jesus as God in Heb 1:9. "God, even thy God"(equality). He did not say God, even thy Almighty God.

My same point to JW argument.
