Bible Note: Hi He-man, You say, "very nicely put". So that means that you agree with the interpretation of the NASB for Romans 8:15. Romans 8:15, "For you have not received a spirit of slavery, leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!" This is different from the KJ where it reads, "but ye have received the Spirit of adoption". So you agree with the NASB as I do in my "penciled in" copy? 1) How about verse 16? The KJ says "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are children of God." Here we see the different spirits bearing witness with each other; the Spirit of God and our spirit. Do you agree with the "Spirit *itself" or would you go with the NASB "The Spirit Himself"? Or a third choice would be found in the questionable NWT where it reads "The spirit itself bears witness with our spirit". Who or what do we need so that we can be seen as children of God?
