Romans 4:7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
English “iniquities” in Romans 4:7 was translated from Greek noun 458 anomia which is from a compound of Greek negative particle 1 a synonymous with English “un” or “not” and Greek noun 3551 nomos being God’s law. God entered into a flesh Old Testament/covenant/contract/law with the human being Abraham pursuant to God’s will. “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ” “And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect” “For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise” “Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator” “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”. God chose Moses to deliver God’s Old Testament/covenant/contract/law to the nation of Israel 430 years later. Romans 7:14 documents that God’s law was spiritual but the nation of Israel, including Paul, was carnal/sarkikos/fleshly. In fact Paul said in Romans 7: 15 “For I know that in me that is, in my flesh dwelleth no good thing” with “good thing” being translated from Greek adjective 18 agathos describing God alone. Matthew 19:17 Mark 10:18 and Luke 18:19 all confirm there is none good/agathos but one, that is, God. Only God’s “seven thousand” “election” can do good/agathos things under their New Testament/covenant/contract/law with God. Understanding God’s “promise” is integral to identifying Abraham’s “seed” which has little or nothing to do with Abrahams flesh descendants. Abraham’s seed are God’s “seven thousand” “election”. English “promises” in Galatians 3:16 was translated from Greek noun 1860 epangelia which appears in Luke 24:49 and identifies Greek noun 1860 epangelia as God’s Holy Spirit, as does Acts 1:4 Acts 2:33 Acts 2:38-39 Galatians 3:14 and Ephesians 1:13. Romans 9:6-7 proves that being of Israel and of the “seed” of Abraham is predicated upon possessing and retaining God’s Spirit rather than being the flesh descendants of Abraham. Galatians 3:22 proves that receipt of God’s Spirit is predicated “by faith of Jesus Christ” with “by” being translated from Greek 1537 ek denoting origin. John 2:24 says: “But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men”. English “men” in John 2:24 was translated from Greek noun 444 anthropos meaning human beings, either female or male. Greek noun 1135 gune designates female. Greek noun 435 aner designates male. The real eye opener in John 2:24 is that English “commit” was translated from Greek verb 4100 pisteuo***. I placed three asterisks here because in order to understand the bible it is necessary to understand who performs the action of Greek verb 4100 pisteuo but we also need to understand Abraham’s “seed” which we will finish now and insert *** three asterisks when we return to Greek verb 4100 pisteuo. Galatians 3:29 reconfirms that being Abraham’s “seed” is predicated upon retaining God’s Spirit rather than being Abraham’s flesh descendant. Ephesians 3:6 reaffirms that “Gentiles” are among Abraham’s “seed”. Abraham’s “seed” are God’s “seven thousand” “election” of whom God said “I have reserved to myself” as documented in Romans 11:4-7 and 11:26-32.
