Subject: Can a man know God without a Bible? |
Bible Note: Hello Tealead, Colossians 1:23 if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister. The NASB has "proclaimed in" instead of "proclaimed to." So all in Paul's time everyone did not have the gospel preached to them. I think this is a correct translations since Paul wanted to preach the gospel in Spain, a place where it had not been preached. Rom 15:20 And thus I aspired to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named, so that I would not build on another man's foundation; Rom 15:21 but as it is written, "THEY WHO HAD NO NEWS OF HIM SHALL SEE, AND THEY WHO HAVE NOT HEARD SHALL UNDERSTAND." Rom 15:22 For this reason I have often been prevented from coming to you; Rom 15:23 but now, with no further place for me in these regions, and since I have had for many years a longing to come to you Rom 15:24 whenever I go to Spain--for I hope to see you in passing, and to be helped on my way there by you, when I have first enjoyed your company for a while-- Peace, |
