NASB | 1 Corinthians 2:14 ¶ But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 2:14 ¶ But the natural [unbelieving] man does not accept the things [the teachings and revelations] of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness [absurd and illogical] to him; and he is incapable of understanding them, because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated, [and he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters]. |
Subject: Romans 2:14-15 commonly mutilated? |
Bible Note: True, you are following the general context and getting to the final argument. I was following the specific context. Just looking at the general context leaves one with two contridictory ideas on salvation. I was just supplementing your arguments on Rom 6-8 and 12-15 with Rom 3. This leaves us with just the one way of salvation. In Rom 2-3 Paul mentions the phrase, "I am just using a human argument" which might be also applicable for much of Rom 2. Keep preaching the Gospel. It is the only way to God. Greentwiga |
