NASB | James 1:27 Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | James 1:27 Pure and unblemished religion [as it is expressed in outward acts] in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit and look after the fatherless and the widows in their distress, and to keep oneself uncontaminated by the [secular] world. |
Bible Question: I appreciate the reply that was given but I know somewhere in the bible it says that we are to take care of the ophans and widows as a church body. I am starting a ministry that our church will take care of things around our widows house if they don't have any family to do it for them. I want to use this as a mission statement for our ministries. I know it states that but I can't find it. Please help!! |
Bible Answer: all right, let's try again. you may be referring to the many verses in Deuteronomy, one of which is 14:29. there's also acts 6:1 and 1 Timothy 5: 3,16. do any of them work? you might want to try a good concordance and look for your key words of orphan and widow. also try other translations other than the one you currently use. there are many great websites that would provide that kind of reference info for you. God bless and may the Lord be with you and your ministry! |
