Belief And Faith Are Predicates Of Greek Verb Peitho

Romans 15:14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

English “am persuaded” emboldened in Romans 15:14 was translated from Greek verb 3982 peitho. The English words “believe” and “faith” are predicates of the Greek verb 3982 peitho meaning to persuade. If anyone other than God performs the action of Greek verb 3982 peitho their grammatical objects are not faithful to God and their belief and faith become immaterial to God. The English words “of those that believe” do not reflect God’s spiritual truth but rather the flesh thoughts and feelings of a flesh human being that covered and hid God’s spiritual truth being those that are faithful which is entirely different criteria than God’s Greek words that were transliterated into  English “chosen” and “faithful”  in Revelation 17:14 “These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful”. People who erroneously believe they are “born again” and “saved” during this earth age need to set aside flesh criteria in deference to God’s actual spiritual criteria. The grammatical subject who performs the action of Greek verb 3982 peitho persuades their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in whatever their grammatical subject wants them to believe and have faith in. Greek verb 3982 peitho was translated into English “persuaded” in Matthew 27:20 “But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus”. The “chief priests” and church “elders” were the grammatical subjects who “persuaded” their grammatical objects “the multitude” to “destroy Jesus”. The bible makes it clear that flesh human beings persuade their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in flesh grammatical subjects contradicting God’s spiritual truth rendering their belief and faith of no consequence to God. The world’s 4,351 religions use faith as a cudgel to deter questions regarding religious dogma and doctrine which God is eager to answer.
