1 Peter 1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
English “do believe” emboldened in 1Peter 1:21 was translated from Greek verb 4100 pisteuo [“do believe”] and Greek feminine noun 4102 pistis [“faith”] are predicates of Greek verb 3982 peitho that subjectively means to persuade and objectively means to be persuaded. Greek verb 3982 peitho best reflects God’s definition 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”. Several years ago the U.S. Library of Congress published an alphabetical list of the world’s 4,351 religions. God came to earth in the embodiment of Jesus Christ two thousand years ago to die on a Roman cross in order to be our one and only spiritual grammatical subject. Greek preposition 5228 huper means over in the genitive case, as grammatical subjects are over their grammatical objects. Greek preposition 5259 hupo means under in the genitive case, as grammatical objects are under their grammatical subject. Greek preposition 5228 huper that means over in the genitive case as grammatical subjects are over their grammatical objects but best reflects God’s perspective translated into English “for” in Romans 8:26, 27, 32 and 34 in the context of Romans 8:19-39. Greek preposition 5259 hupo meaning under best reflects God’s perspective translated into English “of” in 1Corinthians 2:12 and 15 in the context of 1Corinthians 2:9-16. Ask yourselves why are there 4,351 religions when there is only one God? Did not God fore-warn us about today’s religion’s hatred instigated by their false narrative hell, in Matthew 27:20 “But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus”?
