1 | Both spirit and Spirit present within us | Rev 2:28 | BradK | 151683 | ||
Hi Ray, I believe the "concerning His Son" in vs. 3 and "Jesus Christ our Lord" at the end of vs. 4 frame the reference properly. "According to the flesh" is in opposition to "according to the Spirit of holiness". The former may refer to His humanity and the latter to His Diety. He was "declared" or "appointed" to be the Son of God in power by the resurrection from the dead. I hope this helps, BradK |

2 | Both spirit and Spirit present within us | Rev 2:28 | Ray | 151800 | ||
Hi BradK, I agree with you in that we both appear to go with the NASB for Romans 1:4 in its placement of "Jesus Christ our Lord". As far as the birth of His Son [sic] is concerned; if we keep the Son capitalized as is the Son of God, then the flesh and the Spirit of (h)Holiness are not in opposition. That is the mystery and wonder of the incarnation; that He can be both Man and God. That is the gospel of God for which we as saints are set apart. 1) I learned tonight that another word (instead of "declared" or "appointed" to be the Son of God), would be "marked out". Green's Literal Version translates it thus. It has the idea of Strong's #3724, "horizo; from the same as 3725; to mark off by boundaries, to determine:--appointed(2), declared(1), determined(3), fixes(1), pre-determined(1)." He was "determined" to be the Son of God. From the heart, Ray |
