God’s Process Of Defining 3986 Peirasmos For Us

Way back in the second verse of the 1st chapter of James we promised that God would fully define Greek masculine noun 3986 peirasmos for us by answering any questions we might have after completing our study of the 1st chapter of James. In order to fully understand God’s definition of  Greek masculine noun 3986 peirasmos we must follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 19-21 directive by studying every word in each verse containing Greek feminine noun 3984 peira Greek verb 3985 peirazo Greek masculine noun 3986 peirasmos and Greek adverb 4008 peran which means to fully traverse time and space in the flesh physical sense epitomized by the Hebrews fully traversing the Red Sea or in a spiritual sense of transitioning from flesh thoughts and feelings to become entirely God’s spiritual thoughts and ways which Jesus defined as fulfillment of “the first commandment” in Matthew 22:34-38 and Mark 12:28-34. Greek feminine noun 3984 peira is the experience of the trial. Greek verb 3985 peirazo best reflected God’s own definition as “tempted” and “tempteth” in James 1:13 & 14 which God fully explained in those posts. Greek masculine noun 3986 peirasmos best reflected God’s own definition as “temptations” and “temptation in James 1:2 & 12 which God fully explained in those posts. Greek feminine noun 3984 peira was reasonably translated into English “trial” in Hebrews 11:36 in the context of the entire 11th chapter of Hebrews while Greek feminine noun 3984 peira was less well translated into English “assaying” in Hebrews 11:29 within the same context of the 11th chapter of Hebrews. Understanding that the Hebrews survived the Red Sea test and the Egyptians did not. God is about to tell us why he brought us to the 11th chapter of Hebrews but before God explains the rest of the 11th chapter of Hebrews God wants us to fully understand Hebrews 11:39-40 “And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise” “God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect”.  English “these all” emboldened in Hebrews 11:39 refers to all the Old Testament bible heroes noted throughout the 11th chapter of Hebrews. English “us” emboldened in Hebrews 11:40 refers to God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” who are unaffiliated with any of this world’s 4,351 religions but are the grammatical objects of God as their one and only spiritual grammatical subject. God’s apostles and New Testament Bible writers are among God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” none of whom can know if they actually fulfilled “the first commandment” subsequent to their heart, soul and mind being entirely God’s spiritual thoughts and ways until they take their last flesh breath. Only God knows and God loathes pride.
