NASB | Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. |
Bible Question:
GOD DID NOT LEAVE US DEFENSELESS. NAME SOME WEAPONS. HE HAS GIVEN US TO COMBAT THE SPIRIT OF FEAR DEREK |
Bible Answer: Derek, Let me add to what Nolan and There said. We think the only weapon is the Word (Eph 6:17b), yet we need the rest of the armor (vv 13-17a). Plus, verse 18 adds prayer which keeps us alert. Listen to God when you pray - don't do all the talking. Steve |
