NASB | 1 John 5:8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 5:8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three are in agreement [their testimony is perfectly consistent]. |
Bible Question: In 1 John 5:8, what does the 'water' mean or have reference to? I don't believe it means baptisim. |
Bible Answer: Hi Amelia, If you go back to verse 6 and read thru verse 8 it does seem to point to Christ's witness here on earth. The Spirit and water at his baptism and the blood on the cross washing our sin away. Without the Spirit the Bible says the body is dead, so also is the body dead without blood and without water. |
