Bible Note: Hi CDBJ, Thank you for your encouragement and the Scriptures. They gave me a starting place for study today along with John 6:45 earlier. I won't claim to know which Person is teaching us, but I can offer some verses to compare in being taught by God (or the Spirit). And we should keep in mind that we are talking about the true Light. The newest copy of the NASB has made some capitalization changes in the book of 1 John and I will start there. 1) 1 John 1:4, "And these things we write, so that our joy may be made complete. 5 And this is the message we have HEARD FROM *Him and announce to you, that God is (Light), and in Him is no darkness at all." John 6:45, "Everyone who has HEARD FROM the *Father, comes to Me. Not that any man has seen the (Father), except the One who is..." John 16:13, "...*He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on (His) own initiative, but whatever He hears..." 2) I offer these Scriptures that have pronouns that I have penciled in my personal copy to be counted but which are not capitalized by most versions. John 1:4, "In Him was Life, and the (Life) was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. 5 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John." 1 John 1:1, "What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we beheld and our hands handled, concerning the Word of life--2 and the Life was manifested, and we have seen and bear witness and proclaim to you the eternal (Life), which was with the Father and was manifested to us--3 what we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, that you also may have fellowship with us;..." 3) John 1:7, "He [John] came for a witness, that he might bear witness of the Light, that all might believe through ***Him." 1 John 2:8, "On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true ***Light is already shining." Praise the Lord!!! From the heart, Ray |
