NASB | Ephesians 5:5 For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 5:5 For be sure of this: no immoral, impure, or greedy person--for that one is [in effect] an idolater--has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God [for such a person places a higher value on something other than God]. |
Bible Question (short): Does "Christ and God" differintiate them |
Question (full): "The Kingdom of Christ and God," seems to distinguish between Christ and God. Why did the translators choose "and" instead of "even"? Numerous passages, both OT and NT, either state or imply common identity between Christ and God. I don't presume to know the exact nature of that commonality, but the weight of evidence makes it fairly certain. If any knowledgeable Bible scholars have reliable information on this issue, please reply. |
