Bible Note: Hi, Dacajunwolf. Welcome to the forum. If you are interested in knowing where I am coming from a little more, I had a conversation with JVH on Sunday, March 25, 2001. Go to Search on the left. I praise God that you are interested and will consider the use of capitalization in Scripture for it is important. It is important to show God the honor that is due Him. You are right about the use of all capitals in the Bible manuscripts. So really the translators have to decide what not to capitalize. Yet it certainly is not customary to capitalize Deity today. Look at the examples in your Christian book store. But, again, I am glad that you want to give Him honor. Looking at Acts 21:4 again, may I suggest to you that it reads, "they kept telling" rather than "the Spirit kept telling Paul through them." In other words, the Spirit leads us and we're used of Him. Compare this with Acts 11:28 where Agabus stood up and began to indicate by the Spirit... So I just think this is a place where we can test the spirits. 1 Thess 5:19 "Do not quench the spirit, do not despise prophetic utterances. But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form (or appearance) of evil." Later, Ray V.H. |
