Bible Question (short): Five words: see also 1 Cor 14:2 |
Question (full): Hi, I have used my pencil eraser since I made this post that I am attaching to here. In the Romans 8:9-16 passage I now choose to put in lower case FIVE words of "spirit" instead of only THREE earlier. I would like some input from the forum concerning this change. I now see these comparisons of Scriptures: Romans 8:16, "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of (God)." Acts 15:7,8, "And after there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, "Brethren, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. 8 And God, who knows the heart, bore witness to them, giving them the *holy *spirit, just as (He) also did to us." Acts 5:32, [as I see it], also see NKJ, "And we are His witnesses of these things; and so is the *holy *spirit, which God has given to those who obey (Him)." Comments and Scriptures, please. From the heart, Ray |
