Subject: THE MOST POWERFUL VERSE IN EVANGELISM |
Bible Note: Dear Noble, From all of my research it says that both meanings apply, and you are right he was degraded. but through that very degrading experience he was exalted. I too understand that you see the all of the word pertaining to this verse and I promise you I do too. Once again I agree that he not only foretells that he'd be lifted, but also how he would die. Yet using the greek translations that I came across, I see also another profound meaning. And maybe that is just me Noble. You know I mean no harm or insult, but I trust that I am not wrong on this, nor do I feel your undertanding is erroneous. So please my dearest friend, forgive me if I am choosing to walk a bit further down the path. I love you as always in Christ, -Kathy |
