NASB John 5:43 "I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

John 5:43 "I have come in My Father's name and with His power, and you do not receive Me [because your minds are closed]; but if another comes in his own name and with no authority or power except his own, you will receive him and give your approval to an imposter.

Bible Question:  John 5:32 says,"There is another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true. John 5:43 says, "I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him." What would be your objection to capitalizing the word "another"? Would you agree with ..."if Another comes in His own name, you will receive Him."

Bible Answer:  Ray, Jesus is clearly talking about two different "anothers" in these verses. John 5:37 identifies the Father as the "another" of verse 5:32. In John 5:43 the "another" refers to a false messiah. See Matthew 24:5. Regarding capitalization of "another" -- the word is used as an adjective, not a personal pronoun. Nouns and personal pronouns pertaining to all three Persons of the Trinity are capitalized in the NASB. Of course, in no case would the "another" of 5:43 be capitalized, because a false messiah is meant. By the way, Jesus' prediction in Matthew 24:5, "Many will come in my name, saying 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead many" began to be fulfilled in Apostolic times and, of course, there are deceivers amongst us today who make all sorts of wild and false claims. --Hank
