I guess that we are not communicating. Sorry!
That highlights the importance of correct translations.
Otherwise,
wrong words go in wrong places,
wrong words go in right places,
right words go in wrong places,
it's only when right words go in right places that we can hope for truth expressed.

Yes, I do understand. When I was still working for a secular living part of my job was the translation of documents into English. We both speak English, but what was it Winston Churchill said about that? His emphasis I guess was on the difference between British and Americans, but understanding the things of God requires an Interpreter.

Yes the Holy Spirit enlightens our understanding according to His Word, but that is wholly different from translation (which was my point).

Reading many posts here, this is what the Christian walk seems to boils down to.

"Now that I have been saved from sin and hell, if I don't perform well enough, I am sinning and in danger of going to hell."


I used to believe that. Now I don't
