NASB | Galatians 6:1 Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Galatians 6:1 Brothers, if anyone is caught in any sin, you who are spiritual [that is, you who are responsive to the guidance of the Spirit] are to restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness [not with a sense of superiority or self-righteousness], keeping a watchful eye on yourself, so that you are not tempted as well. |
Subject: What do we have? |
Bible Note: Hi Fran1946, Thank you for responding. I'm sorry that I have not answered you very quickly. I have been busy with a couple minor surgeries, and have not spent very much time at the computer. I agree with you that 1 Cor 7:40 does not suggest doubt in any way. You wrote that "The phrase is better translated "I consider also that I have the spirit of God." As a person interested in capitalization and pronouns of Deity, I would like to consider with you not only the translation but also the interpretation that you have made by putting "spirit" in the lower case. I agree with the lower case "spirit" and I think of think of these Scriptures in that regard. Mark 3:30 "He has an unclean spirit." **Here they were saying that Jesus had an unclean spirit and were blaspheming the Holy Spirit by essentially saying that He was not holy. Luke 9:55, "But He turned and rebuked them, [and said, "You do not know what kind of spirit you are of;..." **We should test ourselves also. 1 John 4:1, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world." Revelation 22:6, "And he said to me, "These words are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets,..." So we are to test the spirits to see if they are from God. 1 John 4:2, "By this you know the *spirit of God; every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God." **I personally confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh and I compare 1 John 4:3 with John 10:30 and tell you that He and the Father are one. I consider also that I have the spirit of God. 1 John 3:24, "And the one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And we know by this that He abides in us, by the *spirit who [*which] He has given us. I believe that the Scriptures talk of the spirit and the Spirit of God. We can know that Christ is in us the hope of glory. 1 Corinthians 3:11-16, "For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ....16 Do you not KNOW that you are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"
