Subject: Where did the eunuch rec the Holy Ghost? |
Bible Note: Searcher, that is what I have been trying to get you to see in some of the past treads. That a believer can believe and even be baptised. And yet not have received the Holy Ghost. Wasn't that you who ask me about the 3,ooo believers? If not I apoligize. As for as the Greek go. Lets say I believe You. Lets delete "For the remission of sin" from Acts 2:38. It would still read "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." It still would be a commandment from God. And where did you find the Greek meaning of "eis" , "Because of" do not appear in the KJV Dr. Hackett (Baptist, so you do not think I am Bias) expressed himself still more satificatorily: eis aphesin hamartion, in order to the forgiveness of sins, (Matt. 26:28 Luke iii:3,) we connect, naturally, with the both the preceding verbs. This clause states the motive or object which should induce them to repent and be baptised. It enforces the entire exhortation, not one part of it to the exclusion of the other.
