2 | What does Ephesians 5:26 mean | John 17:17 | DocTrinsograce | 125777 | ||
All men are dead and defiled in (1) original sin because of Adam and (2) in specific acts of disobedience. The word "he" here refers to Christ. He saves us with the washing of regeneration (Tit 3:5). Please see Romans 10:8-9; 17; John 15:3; 17:17 for a better explanation for "word" in this passage. | ||||||
3 | What does Ephesians 5:26 mean | John 17:17 | Ray | 125955 | ||
Hi Doctrinsograce, I find your connection of Ephesians 5:26 and John 17:17 as a perfect match for comparison. The word of truth is that Jesus and the Father are one. The desire is that we may be perfected in unity and that we may be one, just as They are one. John 17:17, "Sanctify them in the truth; *Thy word is truth." Ephesians 5:26, "that *He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word." From the heart, Ray |
