NASB | John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 1:12 But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the right [the authority, the privilege] to become children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name-- [Is 56:5] |
Subject: Are we presenting the gospel scripturaly |
Bible Note: Hi John, Jam 1:17 Every good gift (lit. giving) and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. This says "every good gift", so faith, if indeed counted as a gift, would count as a good gift, but I don't see that this verse instructs us to count faith as a gift. Love in Christ, Mark |
