1 | The ways of life and truth? Acts 2:28 | John 5:32 | Ray | 143136 | ||
Hi lionheart, This word "Godly" is a challenge sometimes for translation and interpretation. I usually use a lower case "godly". The godly testimony that John the baptist gave was his witness to the truth. However, Jesus says in verse 34 that the witness that He receives is not from man. Verse 32, "There is Another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the testimony which He bears of Me is true." Notice the testimony that He bears. This "He" refers to the "Another". So I would go with the interpretation of the Amplified, see above, with its upper case Another. 1) Ezekiel 34:31, "As for you, My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, you are men, and **I am your *God," declares the Lord/God." This is the declaration of the Lord/God and the God/Man to my mind. John 5:18, "...making **Himself equal with *God." John 10:33, "...and because **You, being a *Man, make Yourself/ out to be God." John 5:38, Green's Literal Translation, "And you do not have His Word abiding in you, for (the One) whom that One sent, this One you do not believe." So to my mind, if we have **His word abiding in us and *Him [Green's (this One)] we believe. From the heart, Ray |

Hi lionheart, I am glad that that helped you. I believe that you can see the third Person, the third One when you compare those Scriptures with John 16:12-14. John 16:12, "**I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 But when *He the Spirit/ of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth;..." Compare/contrast these Scriptures. John 16:14, "**He shall glorify *Me; for He/ shall take of Mine, and shall disclose [it] to you." John 17:4, "**I glorified *Thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which Thou/ hast given Me to do." John 17:22, "The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as **We are one; 23 *I in them and You/ in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that..." Because of this prayer of Jesus we can continually know (verse 23) and continually believe (verse 21) that the Father sent Him. We behold the glory of God in the three Persons. From the heart, Ray |
