James 4:15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
English “For that” emboldened in James 4:15 was translated from the Greek preposition 473 anti that means in lieu of that is quite different than English anti that means to be in opposition to or against something. Greek preposition 473 anti reflects God’s definition translated into English “in the room of” in Matthew 2:22 in the sense that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in lieu of his father Herod. Greek preposition 473 anti best reflects God’s definition translated into “for” in Matthew 20:28 “Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many”. It is also important to understand that English “for” in Luke 22:19 & 20 Romans 5:6, 7 and 8 as well as Romans 8:26, 27, 31, 32 and 34 and all throughout the bible was translated from Greek preposition 5228 huper that means over as a grammatical subject is over their grammatical objects. God came to earth in the embodiment of Jesus Christ to die on a Roman cross in lieu of us [Greek preposition 473 anti] and specifically to be our one and only grammatical subject [Greek preposition 5228 huper]! It is important to understand that English “antichrist” in 1John 2:18 & 22 in the context of 1John 2:15-29 and throughout the bible was translated from Greek masculine noun 500 antichristos that is from a compound of Greek preposition 473 anti that God has already proved means in lieu of and Greek adjective 5547 christos that was 569 times correctly translated into English “Christ”. English “antichrist” is every human being who comes in lieu of “Christ”. It is also imperative to understanding that English “lust” and “denieth” in 1John 2:15-29 were translated from Greek feminine noun 1939 epithumia and Greek verb 720 arneomai respectively. Greek feminine noun 1939 epithumia is from a compound of Greek preposition 1909 epi denoting superimposition and Greek masculine noun 2372 thumos from Greek verb 2380 thuo that means to immolate in the sense of believing that others who believe differently than themselves deserve to burn like bacon in hell in excruciating pain for all eternity. Greek masculine noun 2372 thumos can be either the belief of hell or the immolation itself. Greek verb 720 arneomai subjectively means to contradict and objectively means to be contradicted. The King James Bible contains 783,137 English words and each of those Old Testament English words were translated by a fallible human being from God’s original Hebrew manuscripts and each of those New Testament English words were translated by a fallible human being from God’s original Greek manuscripts. Jesus, in Matthew 4:4 said “But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God”. The brilliance of the King James Bible in conjunction with James Strong’s 1890 concordance is that God will translate the erroneous English words back to their original Hebrew and Greek origins and define each of those Hebrew and Greek words for those who follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 19-21 directive. God’s definition of Greek masculine noun 500 antichristos that was translated into English “antichrist” best represents God’s definition in Matthew 24:4-5 “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you” “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many”. The antichrist comes in lieu of Christ. And contradicts “every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” by covering and hiding God’s intrinsic spiritual truth with thousands of years of flesh thoughts and feelings. My job is not to show you God’s intrinsic spiritual truth. My job is to show you how to uncover it yourself. There is one God but the United States Library of Congress gave us an alphabetical list of the worlds 4,351 religions. Which is why James 4:4, referring to spiritual adultery says “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God”.
