AMPLIFIED 2015 | Galatians 6:17 ¶ From now on let no one trouble me [by making it necessary for me to justify my authority as an apostle, and the absolute truth of the gospel], for I bear on my body the branding-marks of Jesus [the wounds, scars, and other outward evidence of persecutions--these testify to His ownership of me]. |

Bible Note: also I forgot to add ... I have dealt with this for years but only 2 months ago did I ever even hear the word stigmata. A friend gave me the movie and said I should watch it, but after learning what the word means, I can't watch it. I don't understand about those people who self induce these marks, because I truely wish I didn't have to. I know the purpose is not for me ... so I try not to think about the reasons or the pain, for I know that I am guilty, I am a sinner. And just like Paul I have a constant struggle with sin, a thorn in my side. But there are many sins passed over because of the love of forgivness. Does this make any sense to you? Joel k |
