Subject: Matched pronouns: Truth or truth? |
Bible Note: Hi EdB, It definately is talking about truth itself, whether capitalized or not; for Jesus is called the Truth, and the Way and the Life because He is those things. He is called the Light of the world because He enlightens every man and He came AS light. But in saying that Truth should be capitalized you seem to agree with me that the pronouns should agree with each other regarding capitalization. I want to make the word "it" denoting "truth" because I want to show the Truth Himself in verse 16. 1 John 3:16, "We know the love [of God, see the Greek] by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren."
