All variations of the Great Commission, despite the fact that the most reliable early manuscripts and other ancient witnesses do not have the last twelve verses of Mark's gospel, indicating that most likely it was a much later addition and not penned by Mark nor inspired by the Holy Spirit. By the way, Acts 1:8 should fall in this list as well. --Joe! |

What do Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:15-18, Luke 24:45-49, and Acts 1:8 have in common? They worshiped *Him and recognized (His) authority. The *star and the parentheses are mine. Matthew 28:16-18, "But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated. And when they saw Him,/ they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful. And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to (Me) in heaven and on earth." Mark 16:14, 15, "And afterward, He appeared to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at the table; and He/ reproached them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who had seen Him after He had risen. And (He) said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." Luke 24:47ff, "and that repentance for forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in *His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. And behold, I/ am sending forth the promise of My Father upon you; but you are to stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high." And (He) led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them. And it came about that while He was blessing them, He parted from them. And they [worshiped *Him] and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, and were continually in the temple, praising God./" Acts 1:8, "but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be (My) witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth." Is the Person of Acts the same person or Person that gave the three commands in the gospels? From the heart, Ray |

5 | "promise or Promise?" | Matt 28:19 | Ray | 102710 | ||
I am always happy to see someone note Jesus as being a Person, (a Man, if you will) and as God. In thinking about Jesus as Spirit, what thought would you have while comparing Acts 1:4, Acts 1:8, and Luke 24:49? Do you agree with the NKJ version where the capitalization/interpretation speaks about the "Promise of My Father".? From the heart, Ray |

Promise, (The Holy Spirit of God) | ||||||
7 | "promise or Promise?" | Matt 28:19 | Ray | 102767 | ||
Hi khuck, Luke 24:49 and Acts 1:4 are the only two occurances that I know of in the NKJ that have the word "Promise" capitalized. Are there any others that you feel the translators/ interpreters of the NKJ should have capitalized? Perhaps Romans 9:9 or Galatians 3:22? There are 51 occurances of the word "promise" listed in my NASB concordance. None of them are capitalized. I am agreeing with the NASB here, but I would like to hear your thoughts or of anyone else interested in this question. What are your thoughts about Acts 1:4, Acts 1:8, and Luke 24:49? From the heart, Ray |

I believe that Jesus is instructing His disciples on one pending event in all three verses: The Promise of the Holy Spirit... The Day of Pentecost In Acts 1:4 it could very well read "the Promise" in the place of "the Holy Spirit" and still have the same meaning (in my understanding.) Or you could replace "the Promise of My Father" with "the Holy Spirit of My Father" and not lose the meaning and context of the other two verses(IMHO). Acts 1 4 And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for "the Promise of the Father", "which," He said, "you have heard from Me; 8 But you shall receive power when "the Holy Spirit" has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Luke 24 49 Behold, I send the "Promise of My Father" upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high." What the Father promised was to reconcile man unto Himself through the Sacrifice of Jesus. This could only take place through His Holy Spirit. note: God deals with us through the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:16). We deal with God through Jesus (John 14:13 and Hebrews 4:16). When we exist on the fleshly level, we are ruled by our bodies, and our souls and spirits are in second and third place. When we are born again, our spirits are moved to the dominant position and the Holy Spirit takes control. He helps us to conform to the image of Christ. In order for our salvation to be fulfilled we must have regeneration via The Holy Spirit, It is through Him working in us we have the Power to stand in Christ. My thoughts on the subject is that after the Cross and Resurrection, Pentecost was the most pivotal event to transpire in regards to reconciling man to God. Just a few of my views on the matter -khuck |
