Bible Note: Thanks Nolan, You have confirmed for me exactly what I had shared with another brother elsewhere a while back. His interpretation of “God's Word enduring forever” is that it has to remain in tact, word for word, jot for jot, tittle for tittle (he was KJO), otherwise it cannot claim the title as “God’s Word”. I gave him this example in Luke to show him that Jesus did not share the same view as he did, because what Jesus read was only perfect in the since that the message God originally inspired was conveyed exactly as God intended. Jesus confirmed the actual words of the translation when he said “This day is this scripture fulfilled IN YOUR EARS” (Luke 4:21 KJV), even tho it was not a word for word translation of Isaiah. This left him searching for answers, because it did not exactly fit with his KJO position. I pray that the Holy Spirit will be allowed to work in this situation. Thank you for being the other “witness” I needed to confirm what I felt the Holy Spirit had revealed to me to share with this brother. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established (2Co 13:1b). Thanks, retxar |
