Bible Note: Hi Mommapbs, I hope that no one reading our discussion about these things has the impression that we are arguing. I see us simply delighting in God's (w)Word and discovering how these things relate to our lives. I like your thoughts here. My hypothesis of having three pronouns of Deity are not in your interpretation right now. But (based on the presence of the Life within) I believe that you would go along with this interpretation which would be choice (c) for our discussion. (c) 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." 1) I would say that there is great significance in life as well as Life. There is significance in being filled with the spirit as well as being filled by the Spirit. There is significance in going to the strong refuge or rock, when we know the Rock. There is significance in going to the word of God in order to know the Word. 2) What do you think about this verse for considering the importance of (l)Life. John 10:10, "The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and have [it] abundantly." From the heart, Ray |
