Bible Note: "Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith" Charis: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. You write: "our good works, in faith and by the Holy Spirit, perfect our salvation." But I say unto you: Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith... (Hebrews 12:2, NIV) So when he had received the sour wine, Jesus said, "It is completed!" Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. (John 19:30 New English Translation) Translators' Note: Or "It is accomplished," "It is finished," or "It is ended." (tetelestai, "It is ended"). kalos |
