Greek verb 863 aphiemi meaning to displace and Greek feminine noun 859 aphesis is the displacement itself were mistranslated into English “shall be forgiven” and “forgiveness” in Mark 3:22-35 “And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils” “And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?” “And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand” “And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand” “And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end” “No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house” “Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme” “but he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation” “ Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit” “There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him” “And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee” “And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?” “And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!” “For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.”

Revelation 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him”. The entities noted in Revelation 12:9 and Revelation 20:2 are all in fact flesh thoughts and feelings as proven in the Greek words of James 3:5-18 “Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth” “the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell” “For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind” “but the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison” “Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God” “Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be” “Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter”? “Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh” “Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom” “But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth” “This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish” “For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work” “But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy” “And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace”.

Hebrews 8:7-11 “For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second” “For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah” “Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord” “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people” “And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest”.

Matthew 10:34-42 “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword” “For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law” “And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household” “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me” “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” “He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it” “He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me” “He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward” “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” “And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward”.

Jesus, referring to the parable of the seed sower, “And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?” because understanding the parable of the seed sower is integral to understanding the bible. Now we are going to follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15-21 instruction by “rightly dividing the word of truth” of Mark 4:10-25 ^“And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable” “And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables” “that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them” “And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?” “The sower soweth the word.” “And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts” “And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness” “and have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended” “And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word” “and the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful” “And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred” “And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?” “For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad” “If any man have ears to hear, let him hear” “And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given” “For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath”. God is the seed sower. The seed is God’s word. God casts his word of spiritual truth onto the earth. Human beings who change their flesh thoughts and feelings in deference to God’s spiritual truth receive additional spiritual truth. Human beings who in the moment change God’s spiritual truth in deference to the human beings’ flesh thoughts and feelings in that very moment “and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath”. This is the “division” Jesus referred to in Luke 12:51 “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division” The bible is designed pursuant to that same division as confirmed in Hebrews 4:12, Isaiah 55:7-11 and Isaiah 28:13 “But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept,  precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.” 

English “Know ye” emboldened in Mark 4:13 was translated from Greek verb 1492 eido meaning to see through the eyes and know through the thoughts of one’s grammatical subject. Grammatical objects of any flesh grammatical subject can neither see through God’s spiritual eyes nor know through God’s spiritual thoughts. John 4:24 says “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth”. Jesus in John 6:63 said “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life”.

English “affliction” emboldened in Mark 4:17 was translated from Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis from Greek verb 2346 thlibo which was translated into English “narrow” in Matthew 7:14 “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it”. Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis was 21 times translated into English tribulation 17 times into affliction 3 times into trouble 1 time into each anguish, persecution, burdened and be afflicted. Anyone who follows God’s 2Timothy 2:15-21 instruction and studies each word in every verse containing Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis and Greek verb 2346 thlibo should come to understand that Hebrews 12:1’s “so great a cloud of witnesses” create a gauntlet on each side of the pathway to God’s kingdom of heaven pushing, pulling, prodding and compressing God’s pathway, which is God’s definition of Greek verb 2346 thlibo. Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis is in fact the pressure created by aforementioned pushing, pulling, prodding and compressing.

English “other things” emboldened in Mark 4:19 was translated from Greek adjective 3062 loipos which was better translated into English “the rest” emboldened in Romans 11:4-7 “But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal” “Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace” “And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work” “What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded” There is one God but there are 4,351 world religions which should elicit a plethora of red flags and sirens. Israel emboldened in Romans 11:7 is among the rest who were blinded emboldened in Romans 11:7 while the rest is everyone other than God’s seven thousand election. Does the eleventh chapter of Romans tell us that everyone other than God’s seven thousand election are blinded during this earth age? Yes it does, both in Greek and in English. Did Jesus come to earth to leave seven thousand election to himself pursuant to God’s will and remove the rest from God’s process pursuant to God’s will. Yes, both in Greek and in English. Why does Romans 11:28 say “As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes”? God’s seven thousand election will cause the rest including Israel “to come unto the knowledge of the truth” during the “thousand years” “Lord’s day” which will occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows “For this is good and  acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”. This defines God’s will, both in English and in Greek.

English “truth” throughout the bible was 107 times translated from Greek noun 225 aletheia. English “to tell” and “to speak the truth” were twice translated from Greek verb 226 aletheuo. English “true” was 25 times translated from Greek adjective 227 alethes. English “true” was also translated 27 times from Greek adjective 228 alethinos. English “of a truth” was 21 times translated from Greek adverb 230 alethos describing the single inherent source of the Greek verb 226 aletheuo. Greek noun 225 aletheia Greek verb 226 aletheuo Greek adjective 227 alethes Greek adjective 228 alethinos and Greek adverb 230 alethos are all from a compound of Greek 1 a negative particle synonymous with English un or not and Greek verb 2990 lanthano meaning to hide by covering. The bible says “All men are liars” “God be true, but every man a liar” because men cover God’s spiritual truth with lies that dwell in their flesh thoughts and feelings. Some men teach that Jesus will rapture their church to escape the apocalypse. The etymology of English apocalypse is from Greek noun 602 apokalypsis which was translated into English The “revelation” of Jesus Christ in Revelation 1:1. Greek verb 601 apokalypto from a compound of Greek preposition 575 apo meaning off in the sense of moving something away from: something near and Greek verb 2572 kalypto meaning to hide by covering, which is also God’s definition of Greek verb 2990 lanthano which applies only to the Greek words that were translated into various English truths noted in the beginning of this paragraph. Greek verb 2990 lanthano was translated into English “are ignorant of” and “be not you ignorant of this” in 2Peter 3:5 & 3:8 respectively in 2Peter 3:5-10 “For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water” “whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished” “but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men” “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day”. “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up” [1Corinthians 3:11-15]. English “us-ward” emboldened in 2Peter 3:9 was translated from Greek pronoun 2248 hemas in conjunction with Greek preposition 1519 eis indicating, in this context, the person entered into. Greek pronoun 2248 hemas is the accusative case plural of Greek pronoun 1473 ego which was translated into English “I” in Matthew 12:25-32. Greek pronoun 2248 hemas in conjunction with Greek preposition 1519 eis indicating, in this context, the person entered into appears only in 2Peter 3:9 and Ephesians 1:19 in the context of Ephesians 1:3-19 and Psalms 40 relative to Hebrews 10:7. Let’s concentrate on 2Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day“. Relative to 2Peter 3:5-7 “For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water” “whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished” “but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men”.  “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing” English “beloved” emboldened in 2Peter 3:8 was translated from Greek adjective 27 agapetos describing and qualifying God’s “seven thousand” “election”. Human beings who follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15-21 edict and study every verse containing Greek verb 25 agapao Greek feminine noun 26 agape and Greek adjective 27 agapetos will understand that only God is intrinsically agape. English “love” has been translated from Greek verb 25 agapao and Greek verb 5368 phileo. Greek verb 25 agapao is unconditional love. Greek verb 5368 phileo is conditional. Greek feminine noun 5373 philia appears in the King James Bible only one time as “friendship” in James 4:4 “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”. English “friend” was translated from Greek adjective 5384 philos which was translated into “friends” when Jesus said in John 15:13-15 “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends” “Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” “Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you”. The Greek pronoun 5209 humas which was 376 times correctly translated into English “you” was omitted from the bible phrase “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing” correctly translated would be But, beloved, be you not ignorant of this one thing which is opposite to “For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water” “whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished” “but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men”. God’s “seven thousand” “election” are acutely aware that Greek noun 165 aion being an earth age and Greek adjective 166 aionios describing multiple earth ages appear in the bible 199 times while “the rest” “they willingly are ignorant of” these biblical facts especially the fact that a “thousand years” shall occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. 

Greek verb 601 apokalypto meaning to take off the cover was 26 times translated into past, present and future tenses of English “reveal”. Greek noun 602 apokalypsis [from Greek verb 601 apokalypto] was 12 times translated into English “revelation” as found in Revelation 1:1, Romans 2:5 and Galatians 1:12 and was also translated into English “manifestation” in Romans 8:19 pursuant to God’s will as noted in Romans 8:21. Romans 8:19-21 “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God” “For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope” “because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God”. Synopsis: flesh grammatical subjects other than God cover and hide God’s inherent truth. God’s “seven thousand” “election” are the “many brethren” of Romans 8:29 and “the sons of God” of Romans 8:14-23 Philippians 2:13-15 1John 3:1-2 God’s “seven thousand” “election” are also the bible’s  “elect” “vessels of mercy” “saints” “firstfruits” of Romans 8:23 1Corinthians 15:23 and James 1:18 “servants” of John 18:36 Acts 2:18 Romans 6:22 Ephesians 6:6 1Peter 2:16 Revelation 1:1  Revelation  7:3 and Revelation 22:6 “firstborn” of Hebrews 12:18-23 and “elect” “priesthood” of 1Peter 2:4-9 who “shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years” of Revelation 20:6. The “thousand years” in which God’s “seven thousand” “election” will cause “the rest” of God’s “creation” to “come unto the knowledge of the truth” “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”.

I will give you an example of the truth God is going to biblically uncover in this addendum to the 9^th chapter of Romans. The “so great a cloud of witnesses” in Hebrews 12:1 “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us”. The so great a cloud of witnesses willingly but sometimes unwittingly form a gauntlet on each side of the pathway to the kingdom of heaven to push and pull human beings off God’s pathway in deference to the flesh thoughts and feelings of their flesh social networks, which the English bible calls the “tribulation” from Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis from Greek verb 2346 thlibo. Hint: Greek verb 2346 thlibo was translated into “narrow” in Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat” “because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it”. If you follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15–21 edict and study every Greek word in every verse containing Greek feminine noun 2347 thlipsis and Greek verb 2346 thlibo in context, God will define “tribulation” for you and you should understand the gauntlet reference and know that God’s “seven thousand” “election” will shorten the days of “tribulation” during this earth age. You should also understand God’s warning about the flesh “cloud of witnesses” “it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea”. English “him” “his” and “he” emboldened in Mark 9:42 were translated from Greek generic pronoun 846 autos which is in the King James Bible 5,785 times. Hebrew and Greek are inflected languages as explained in prior post God Differentiates Greek And English Languages. Hebrew and Greek do not contain pronouns like he she her him they them it that their etc. etc. because those pronouns, as well as nouns and adjectives are determined by the grammatical subject performing the verb’s action and the grammatical object receiving the action performed. The crux is that 410 years ago a flesh translator mistranslated Greek generic pronoun 846 autos into English “him” “his” and “he” because the translator was not God’s grammatical object. Had the translator been God’s grammatical object Greek generic pronoun 846 autos would have been correctly translated into English “them” “their” and “they”. When I was young my flesh social networks consisted of family, school and church. Today’s social networks consist of millions of flesh human beings chock-full of flesh thoughts and feelings that cover and hide God’s intrinsic spiritual truth. We must always remember that Jesus said “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division” and Isaiah 28:13 Isaiah 55:7-11 and Hebrews 4:12 reaffirm that same “division” of removing “the rest” of the world  from God’s “seven thousand” “election” during this earth age pursuant to God’s “seven thousand” “election” causing “the rest” of the world  “to come unto the knowledge of the truth” during the “thousand years” which shall occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. Greek masculine noun 165 aion is an earth age. Greek adjective 166 aionios describes multiple earth ages. If this is the first you have heard of biblical earth ages you may want to consider the possibility that you have a flesh preacher or priest or rabbi or mullah or any flesh grammatical subject other than God, which would make you among “the rest” of the world rather than among God’s “seven thousand” “election” during this earth age because Greek masculine noun 165 aion and Greek adjective 166 aionios appear in the King James Bible 199 times.   

God’s process of leaving “seven thousand” grammatical objects to himself while simultaneously leaving “the rest” to the world’s flesh social networks is described in the Greek words of the 12^th chapter of Hebrews. Aforementioned flesh social networks are described as “so great a cloud of witnesses” in Hebrews 12:1 “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us”. English “compassed about” emboldened in Hebrews 12:1 was translated from Greek verb 4029 perikeimai which is from a compound of Greek preposition 4012 peri and Greek verb 2749 keimai. Greek verb 4029 perikeimai was translated into “were hanged about” in Mark 9:42-43 “And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.” “And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched”.  And Luke 17:2 “It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones”. Into “is compassed” in Hebrews 5:2 “Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also  is compassed  with infirmity”. Please note that Hebrews 5:2 refers to Jesus Christ “that he himself also  is compassed  with infirmity”. English “infirmity” in the context of Hebrews 5:2 is external not internal. English “infirmity” was translated from Greek feminine noun 769 astheneia which was translated into “infirmity” in Romans 8:26-27 “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered” “And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God”. God’s “seven thousand” “election” are “the saints” of Romans 8:26-27 and the “we” “us” “our” “ourselves” and “us-ward” throughout the King James Bible as documented in many prior posts. English “patience” emboldened in Hebrews 12:1 was translated from Greek feminine noun 5281 hupomone from a compound of Greek preposition 5259 hupo and Greek verb 3438 mone which was translated into “our abode” in John 14:23. Greek preposition 5259 hupo means under in the genitive case as a grammatical object is under their grammatical subject. English “for” emboldened in Romans 8:26-27 were translated from Greek preposition 5228 huper meaning over in the genitive case as grammatical subjects are over their grammatical objects. God came to earth in the embodiment of Jesus Christ and died on a Roman cross to be our exclusive grammatical subject. English us and we emboldened in Hebrews 12:1 in conjunction with the Greek words that were translated into “chosen” in Acts 9:15 and John 15:16 confirm that the apostle Paul and Jesus’ eleven [excluding Judas Iscariot] disciples are among God’s “seven thousand” “election” so when you see the English biblical pronouns “us” “we” “our” “ourselves” and “us-ward” understand that the bible writers are writing to and referring to God’s “seven thousand” “election”. All these bible facts have been repeatedly proven in prior posts. Please note that 43 is emboldened in Mark 9:42-43 because God cannot reconcile the false narratives of Mark 9:43 within the confines of this paragraph.

Mark 9:43 “And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched”.

English “offend” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek verb 4624 skandalizo from Greek neuter noun 4625 skandalon from Greek verb 2578 kampto meaning to bow or more pertinent to whom we bow. Greek verb 2578 kampto was translated into English “have” “bowed” in Romans 11:4 “But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal“. English “Baal” is any spiritual husband other than God, especially the world’s 4,351 religions. Greek verb 4624 skandalizo was translated into English “shall” “be offended” in Luke 7:23 “And blessed is he, whosoever  shall not be offended in me” and into “offend” in John 6:53-63 “Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you” “Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day” “For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed” “He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him” “As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me” “This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever” “These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum” “Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it” “When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you” “What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before” “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life”. Greek neuter noun 4625 skandalon was translated into “offense” in Matthew 16:23 “But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men” and 1Peter 2:4-9 “To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious” “ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ” “Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded” “Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner” “and a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed” “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”. English “for thou savourest” emboldened in Matthew 16:23 was translated from Greek verb 5426 phroneo meaning to think flesh thoughts and feelings which is reaffirmed in Romans 8:5 and Colossians 3:2. Greek verb 5426 phroneo was translated into English “do mind” in Romans 8:5 “For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit”. Greek verb 5426 phroneo was translated into English “affection” in Colossians 3:2 “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth”. All of the world’s 4,351 religions are predicated upon flesh thoughts and feelings rather than God’s spiritual thoughts and ways. Hebrews 12:18-29 confirms that God created God’s own “general assembly and church of the firstborn”. This is not rocket science, it is simple logic. There is one God. There is one “mount Sion”. There is one “city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem”. There is one “general assembly and church of the firstborn”. Jesus in Luke 12:51 said “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division”. Isaiah 28:13 says “But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken”. God structured “the word of the Lord”  to protect “the rest” of the world from Matthew 12:32 “And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come” by removing God’s spirit from them and removing them from God’s process during this earth age pursuant to God’s will “that in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him” “and have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust” “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”. God did not design the world’s 4,351 religions to bring human beings to God.  God designed the world’s 4,351 religions to remove human beings from God’s process during this earth age pursuant to God’s will “because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God” during the “thousand years” which will occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. Now back to Matthew 16:23 “But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men” where English “for thou savourest” emboldened in Matthew 16:23 was translated from Greek verb 5426 phroneo meaning to think flesh thoughts and feelings. This is God’s first installment of God’s truth regarding “the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan” actually being flesh thoughts and feelings which will be uncovered in the following scriptures. Within the context of the apostle Paul’s words of Romans 7:14 “For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin”. Relative to Genesis 3:14-19 “And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life” “and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel” “Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee” “And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life” “thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field” “in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return”. Human beings are the dust in which the serpent crawls. Grammatical objects who see through God’s spiritual eyes and know though God’s spiritual thoughts understand that Eve through her own flesh eyes and thoughts “saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat”. 1Tim 3:11 refers to “wives be grave, not slanderers” where “slanderers” was translated from Greek adjective 1228 diabolos which was 35 times translated into English “devil”. 1Tim 3:11 “Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things”. 2Tim 3:2-3 refers to “men” “being” “without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers” where “false accusers” was translated from Greek adjective 1228 diabolos which was 35 times translated into English “devil”. 2Tim 3:2-3 “For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy” “without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,” Titus 2:3 refers to “The aged women” where “false accusers” was translated from Greek adjective 1228 diabolos which was 35 times translated into English “devil”. Titus 2:3 “The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things”. English “Ye serpents” in Mt 23:33 refers to “you, scribes and  Pharisees, hypocrites” Mt 23:33 “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell”? 2Cor 11:13-15  “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ” “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light” “Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works”.

English “it” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek generic pronoun 846 autos which is in the King James Bible 5,785 times and is often mistranslated. The flesh Greek generic pronoun 846 autos is the English “hand” in Mark 9:43 so “it” is a reasonable flesh translation but we must always remember Jesus’ words in John 6:63 “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life”.  Jesus is not actually talking about a flesh “hand”. Jesus is referring to everything that offends God’s Spirit and referring his grammatical objects to Romans 5:30 which connects spiritually to James 3:5-6 “Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth” “And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell”. Hell is a product of tongues of men as Jeremiah 32:35 confirms. English words emboldened in James 3:6 was translated from Greek feminine noun 1078 genesis which in this context is our moment of flesh birth. There are other English words emboldened in James 3:5-6 and the Greek words from whence they came connect to other verses that enhance spiritual understanding but would detract from the core of James 3:5-6 which is telling us two important facts. The first is tongues of flesh human beings offend God’s spirit from the moment of our flesh birth which is why the Greek words of Luke 14:26 unequivocally tell us we must all de-testify every human being we have ever known and our own soul also before we can even begin to be God’s learner. Secondly, tongues of men are the origin of the English false narrative “hell” which is reaffirmed in 1Corinthians 3:13-15 Matthew 13:11 and Luke 3:16.  God made it clear how God felt about hell in Jeremiah 32:35 “And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.”

English “cut” “off” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek verb 609 apokopto. It is not the hand, foot or eye that offends God’s Spirit. From the moment of human birth it is the tongue of flesh human beings spewing flesh thoughts and feelings that offends God’s Spirit. Cast those flesh thoughts and feelings into Jerusalem’s smoldering garbage dump, per Jesus’ instruction. Cut off from you tongues of men in deference to God’s spiritual thoughts and ways.  

English “life” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek feminine noun 2222  zoe from Greek verb 2198 zao while Greek masculine noun 4990 soter which was translated into “Saviour” in 1Timothy 2:3-4 “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”.

English “hell” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek feminine noun 1067  geenna which is in fact the valley of the son of Hinnom which contains the garbage dump outside Jerusalem’s east gate. English false narrative “hell” has been translated from Hebrew noun H7585 she’owl meaning grave, from Greek noun 1067 geenna being the valley of the son of Hinnom containing Jerusalem’s garbage pit where Jesus instructed us to cast any flesh member [Mt 5:29 James 3:6 Mark 9:43] that offends God’s Spirit and from Greek noun 86 hades from a compound of Greek 1 a negative particle synonymous with English un or not and Greek verb 1492 eido meaning to see through the eyes and know through the thoughts of one’s grammatical subject. Greek noun 86 hades is the impossibility of seeing through God’s eyes and knowing through God’s thoughts when a grammatical object has any grammatical subject other than God. God tells us exactly how God feels about the flesh false narrative hell in Jeremiah 32:35 “And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin”. I can not imagine any hate greater than believing human beings who believe differently than one’s self will suffer the excruciating pain of burning like bacon for all eternity. We are here because Matthew 7:1-2 says “Judge not, that ye be not judged” “For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again”. The “rich man” [Luke 16:19-31] was in the same place as Abraham and Lazarus who were in celestial immortal bodies exhibiting the light/doxa of God’s spirit while the rich man was in a mortal celestial body devoid of God’s light/doxa. The “gulf” is not a physical barrier, it is the disparity of God’s light/doxa. The anguish of the “rich man” was self imposed subsequent to Matthew 7:1-2 because the “rich man” was measuring himself with the same judgment he had measured unto others during his flesh lifetime. My objective is not to be your grammatical subject. My primary objective is to cause you to consider the possibility that what you have been taught by flesh grammatical subjects is false whereby God can reserve you to himself. My secondary objective is that you recall this paragraph the instant you find yourself in the “Lord’s day” “thousand years” whereby you can avoid the self imposed anguish of the “rich man”. If you are not yet convinced that hell is a flesh invention study every Greek word in every verse fore and aft for context in 1Corinthians 3:13-19 Matthew 3:11 and Luke 3:16.     

English “fire” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek neuter noun 4442 pur which is a source of the “division” of Luke 12:51. If you study every Greek word in Matthew 13:11 1Corinthians 3:9-17 Hebrews 12:18-24 James 3:5-6 1Peter 1:7 and 2Peter 3:7-18 you should understand God’s definition of Greek neuter noun 4442 pur which is the fire of God’s Spirit which burns up the intrinsic flesh thoughts and feelings of flesh human beings. God’s Spirit does not burn up human beings just their flesh thoughts and feelings. Even that fire is a slow burn subsequent to Greek verb 863 aphiemi meaning to displace and Greek feminine noun 859 aphesis is the displacement itself. Greek verb 863 aphiemi  and Greek feminine noun 859 aphesis were mistranslated into English “shall be forgiven” and “forgiveness” in Mark 3:22-35 and throughout the bible.  

English “never shall be quenched” emboldened in Mark 9:43 was translated from Greek adjective 762 asbestos from a compound of Greek negative particle 1 a synonymous with English un or not and Greek verb 4570 sbennymi. If you study every Greek word in each verse containing Greek adjective 762 asbestos and Greek verb 4570 sbennymi you should understand God’s definition of Greek adjective 762 asbestos and Greek verb 4570 sbennymi. Do not let the fact that Jesus is referring to Jerusalem’s garbage dump which burned constantly in the valley of the son of Hinnom in the 9^th chapter of Mark confuse you. 

Jesus in Luke 12:51 said “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division”. Aforementioned “division” is reiterated in Isaiah 28:13 “But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken“. The bible is designed to remove those who will not do God’s will from God’s process pursuant to God’s will as defined in Joel 2:28  John 1:9 Romans 14:11-12  Acts 2:17  Acts 24:15  Luke 3:6  2Peter 3:8-10  Ephesians 1:10 Romans 8:21 Romans 11:32  1Timothy 4:10 and 1Timothy 2:3-4. The last four verses in the bible warn us of the consequences “If any man shall add unto” or “if any man shall take away from the words of the book”. God will define each original Old Testament Hebrew word and each New Testament Greek word for those who follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15-21 edict by “rightly dividing the word of truth” by studying every verse containing each original Hebrew and Greek word whereby God can define each word for us. I received an e-mail from [wil 16 hours ago] suggesting a process whereby I might better define God’s words. God does not need me to define God’s Hebrew and Greek words. My objective is to document the process whereby God defines his original Hebrew and Greek words for us. I noted earlier in this paragraph King James Bible verses that unambiguously define God’s will in English. These verses are among the few bible verses in which the Hebrew and Greek words convey the same message as the English words. 1Timothy 2:3-4 English words say “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”.  English “men” emboldened in 1Timothy 2:4 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; otherwise the English words in 1Timothy 2:3-4 convey the same meaning as the English so we have no excuse. The question is not if “God our Saviour” will have all human beings “to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth” but when? The answer is during the “thousand years” that will occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. 2Peter 3:8-10 says “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day” “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some  men  count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up”. Ephesians 1:10 says “That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him”. God clearly defines God’s will and concisely explains God’s process pursuant to God’s will. There is one God. There are 4,351 world religions. Please, ask yourself why? You can find the library of congress’ archived alphabetical list of 4,351 religions at: https://webarchive.loc.gov/all/20020902082059/http://www.adherents.com/

Jesus, in Revelation 3:19 said “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent”. Hebrews 12:5 says “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, my son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:” English “rebuke” and “rebuked” emboldened in Revelation 3:19 and Hebrews 12:5 respectively were translated from Greek verb 1651 elegcho meaning to confute. English “chasten” and “chastening” emboldened in Revelation 3:19 and Hebrews 12:5 respectively were translated from Greek feminine noun 3809 paideia which is the raising up of one’s own child. Before God can perform the action of Greek verb 1651 elegcho and raise us up as God’s own child we human beings must accept that we are wrong and embrace the process of our flesh thoughts and feelings being displaced by God’s spiritual thoughts and ways. My role in this process is limited to causing human beings to consider the possibility that they are wrong, whereby God can reserve them to himself. God does not forgive sin! God displaces the sin that is intrinsic in flesh thoughts and feelings with the intrinsic truth of God’s spiritual thoughts and ways. Anyone who studies every Greek word in every verse containing Greek verb 863 aphiemi and Greek feminine noun 859 aphesis will understand that Greek verb 863 aphiemi means to displace one thing with another and Greek feminine noun 859 aphesis is the displacement itself. Romans 11:4-7 is straightforward; God reserves “seven thousand” “election” to himself during this earth age and “the rest were blinded” during this earth age to protect “the rest” from Matthew 12:32 pursuant to God’s will defined above.

God’s original intrinsic spiritual truth is covered and hidden by flesh thoughts and feelings. English words “truth” and “true” throughout the King James Bible’s New Testament were translated from Greek noun 225 aletheia and Greek adjective 227 alethes both from a compound of Greek negative particle 1 a synonymous with English un or not and Greek verb 2990 lanthano meaning to hide by covering. Getting to God’s truth is predicated upon removing the English flesh thoughts and feelings of human beings that cover and hide God’s intrinsic truth. God would have detracted from the crux of the ninth chapter of Romans by uncovering all of the mistranslated English words and thoughts therein. Greek words in the ninth chapter of Romans connect to other bible verses and reveal some of God’s spiritual truths that have been most egregiously covered and hidden by flesh thoughts and feelings. God is going to uncover God’s truth about hell. God is going to uncover God’s truth about the human false “witnesses” obstructing God’s pathway to God’s kingdom. God is going to uncover God’s truth about “the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan” actually being flesh thoughts and feelings. God is going to uncover God’s truth about “Easter” and God’s truth about the English verb “forgive” and noun “forgiveness”. God is going to demonstrate how easily we human beings are fooled by the flesh thoughts and feelings of other human beings by entirely changing the meaning of John 3:3, 3:7 and 3:16 by changing the true meaning of Greek adverb 509 anothen from Greek adverb 507 ano meaning above. Greek adverb 509 anothen meaning from above was mistranslated into English “again” in John 3:3 and 3:7, ask yourself why? This is not rocket science, anyone who follows God’s 2Timothy 2:15-21 edict and studies the thirteen verses containing Greek adverb 509 anothen will know it means from above. Human beings are not born again by their faith in God. Human beings are born from above by God’s faith in them pursuant to God’s will. Greek adjective 3956 pas which was 748 times correctly translated into English “all” was grossly mistranslated into English pronoun “whosoever” in John 3:15 and 3:16. Greek adjective 3956 pas/all describes and qualifies the noun “world” in John 3:16. Anyone who honestly asks themselves why Greek adverb 509 anothen meaning from above was mistranslated into English “again” and why Greek adjective 3956 pas/all was mistranslated into English pronoun “whosoever” the only logical answer is that the English mistranslations “again” and “whosoever” preserved the world’s 4,351 religion’s authority while the true meaning of Greek adjective 3956 pas/all and Greek adverb 509 anothen/from above diminish religion’s authority in deference to God’s authority. These types of mistranslations recur throughout the bible.

Romans 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

English “Sion” emboldened in Romans 9:33 was translated from Greek proper locative noun 4622 sion which was translated into “Sion” in Romans 11:26-32  1Peter 2:4-10 and Hebrews 12:18-24 “For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest” “and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more” “for they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart” “and so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake” “but ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels” “to the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect” “and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel”. English “church” in Hebrews 12:23 and throughout the King James Bible were translated from Greek feminine noun 1577 ekklesia from a compound of Greek preposition 1537 ek denoting the origin from whence action came and Greek verb 2564 kaleo which is the verb form of Greek adjective 2822 kletos which was translated into “called” in Matthew 22:14 “For many are called, but few are chosen” where English “chosen” was translated from Greek adjective 1588 eklektos which was translated 7 times into English “chosen” and 16 times into “elect”. Greek feminine noun 1589 ekloge is the noun form of Greek adjective 1588 eklektos which was translated 7 times into English “chosen” and 16 times into “elect”. Greek feminine noun 1589 ekloge was translated into “election” in Romans 9:10-28 Romans 11:4-7 and 11:26-32  1Thesallonians 1:2-5 and 2Peter 1:1–11. God’s “seven thousand” “election” are God’s “elect” “chosen” “saints” and the “firstborn” emboldened in Hebrews 12:23 in this paragraph. God created God’s own church consisting of “seven thousand” “election” who are not of the “world” but are citizens of heavenly Jerusalem and will come out of Sion “called, and  chosen, and  faithful” of 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.” God’s “seven thousand” “election” are Jesus’ “many brethren” of Romans 8:29 and “the sons of God” of John 1:12 Romans 8:14 Romans 8:19 Philippians 2:15 and 1John 3:1-3. The truth regarding God’s “seven thousand” “election” recur again and again in my posts because the King James Bible is written to and about them again and again.

English “rock” emboldened in Romans 9:33 was translated from Greek feminine noun 4073 petra which was translated into “Rock” in 1Corinthians 10:4 “and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” Into “rock” in 1Peter 2:8 “and a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.” And into “rock” in Matthew 7:24-27  “Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock” “and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock” “And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand” “and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.” God joined “seven thousand” “election” “and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” God “appointed” “the rest” unto “a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.” God’s Greek words say the same thing over and over again and God told us how to understand them. We will have no excuse.

English “a stumblingstone” emboldened in Romans 9:33 was translated from Greek masculine noun 3037 lithos being a stone. 1Peter 2:4-10 explains the stones rocks and stumbling stones of Romans 9:32 and 33 “To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious” “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ” “Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded” “Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner” “And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed” “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light” “Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy”.

English “offence” emboldened in Romans 9:33 was translated from Greek neuter noun 4625 skandalon which was translated into “an occasion to fall” in Romans 14:10-13 “But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ” “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God” “So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God” “Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way”.

English “on” emboldened in Romans 9:33 was mistranslated from Greek preposition 1909 epi denoting superimposition. Again “seven thousand” “election” will superimpose what they learned from the spirit of God during this earth age unto “the rest” during the “thousand years” “Lord’s day” which shall occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows.

God would have detracted from the ninth chapter of Romans by correcting all of the mistranslated English words therein. Many Greek words in the ninth chapter of Romans connect to other bible verses and reveal God’s spiritual truths. God is going to reveal those truths in an addendum that will be posted after the 9^th chapter of Romans.

Romans 9:32  Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone

English “by” and “it were by” emboldened in Romans 9:32 were translated from Greek preposition 1537 ek denoting the origin from whence a thing or an action came. In the context of Romans 9:32 God is the origin from whence “faith” came as defined by God.

English “faith” emboldened in Romans 9:32 was translated from Greek feminine noun 4102 pistis which indeed means faith but is widely misunderstood because Greek verb 4100 pisteuo meaning to believe and 4102 pistis meaning faith are both predicates of Greek verb 3982 peitho meaning to persuade. 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 grammatical subjects other than God persuade their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in things in direct opposition to God’s spiritual truth. English words believe and faith are predicates of Greek verb 3982 peitho meaning to persuade. Grammatical subjects other than God persuade their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in ludicrous things. The English word faith in the bible most often refers to God’s faith in human beings pursuant to God’s will. The faith of human beings other than God’s “seven thousand” “election” is of no consequence to God during this earth age because only God’s “seven thousand” “election” retain God’s Spirit during this earth age.

English “they stumbled” emboldened in Romans 9:32 was translated from Greek verb 4350 proskopto which was translated into “stumble” in 1Peter 2:8 “And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.”

English “stumblingstone” emboldened in Romans 9:32 was translated from Greek masculine noun 3037 lithos being a stone and Greek neuter noun 4348 proskomma which were translated into “a stone of stumbling” in 1Peter 2:8 “And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.”

English “righteousness” emboldened in Romans 9:31 was translated from Greek feminine noun 1343 dikaiosune from a compound of Greek adjective 1342 dikaios and Greek preposition 4862 sun denoting union. I dislike the English word righteous because it is most often a predicate of one’s own judgment of right which undoubtedly renders self-righteousness. The English noun right is the predicate of Greek verb 1344 dikaioo which subjectively means to make right. A human being who is the grammatical object of God as their only spiritual grammatical subject are made right per God’s definition of right. Greek adjective 1342 dikaios describes and qualifies human beings made right per God’s definition of right. Greek feminine noun 1343 dikaiosune is right itself, only when in union with God’s definition of right. There is one God. There are 4,351 world religions subsequent to 4,351 different definitions of right and all claim the “promise” of receipt and retention of God’s Spirit without performing the 1,595 bible criterion “if’s”.  Greek adverb 1346 dikaios was translated into “righteously” in 1Peter 2:23 and Titus 2:12.  1Peter 2:23 “Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously”.  Titus 2:12 “Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world”. English “world” emboldened in Titus 2:12 was translated from Greek masculine noun 165 aion which is an earth age. Greek adjective 166 aionios describes multiple earth ages. If this is the first time you have heard about biblical earth ages you may want to consider the possibility that you are the grammatical object of someone other than God because Greek masculine 165 aion and Greek adjective 166 aionios appear in the bible 199 times. There are virtually no New Testament English bible words that are perfectly translated from the Greek words from whence they came because the bible is designed to remove billions of human beings from God’s process during this earth age pursuant to God’s will that all “come unto the knowledge of the truth” during the “thousand years” that shall be between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. God is not punishing those removed from his process. God is protecting them from Matthew 12:32 “And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.” English “world” emboldened in Matthew 12:32 was mistranslated from Greek masculine noun 165 aion. English “world to come” was mistranslated from Greek verb 3195 mello which was translated into “he should” in Luke 9:27-35. There are a plethora of English words that cover and hide God’s spiritual truth and God reveals them one word at a time within the context of all the verses the original Hebrew Old Testament and Greek New Testament words appear.

Romans 9:31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

English “hath” “attained” emboldened in Romans 9:31 was translated from Greek verb 5348 phthano which means to come before was translated into English “is come” in Matthew 12:28 “But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you” and Luke 11:20 “But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you” and into “shall” “prevent” in 1Thessalonians 4:15 “For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep” which is the same event noted in 1Corinthians 15:51-52 “Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed” “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed”. English shall and prevent were mistranslated from Greek verb 5348 phthano which means to come before. Some of the world’s 4,351 religions erroneously teach that 1Thessalonians 4:13-18 is the rapture to escape the apocalypse which is demonstrably false. The word rapture does not appear in the King James Bible. Not in Hebrew. Not in Greek. Not in English. The etymology of English apocalypse is from Greek feminine noun 602 apokalypsis which was translated into “The revelation” in Revelation 1:1 “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John”. Greek feminine noun 602 apokalypsis is the noun form of Greek verb 601 apokalypto meaning to uncover, in the sense of removing the flesh thoughts and feelings that cover the intrinsic truth of God’s spiritual thoughts and ways.

English “faith” emboldened in Romans 9:30 was translated from Greek feminine noun 4102 pistis which indeed means faith but is widely misunderstood because Greek verb 4100 pisteuo meaning to believe and 4102 pistis meaning faith are both predicates of Greek verb 3982 peitho meaning to persuade. 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”.

English “is of” emboldened in Romans 9:30 was translated from Greek preposition 1537 ek denoting origin from whence action proceeds. God’s faith is the origin from whence action proceeds. Human faith in God is of no consequence to God if its origin was not God.

Romans 9:30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

English “not” emboldened in Romans 9:30 was translated from Greek particle of qualified negation 3361 me which is a particle of qualified negation while Greek negative particle 3756 ou is a particle of absolute negation. Greek negative particle 3361 me was 486 times translated into “not”. Greek negative particle 3756 ou was 1,210 times translated into “not” so distinguishing between the two is an integral part of understanding the bible.  Greek particle 3361 me of qualified negation emboldened in Romans 9:30 which in that context is predicated upon Greek feminine noun 1343 dikaiosune which means right itself, but only when in union with God’s definition of right. There is one God. There are 4,351 world religions subsequent to 4,351 different definitions of right. Greek qualified negative particle 3361 me appears 486 times in the bible often immediately preceded by Greek conjunction 1487 ei synonymous with English “if” which is usually ignored in English idiom so we need to study all the Hebrew Old Testament and Greek New Testament words from whence the English words came. The Greek words in Romans 9:30 describes and qualifies God’s “seven thousand” “election” as being made right per God’s definition of right during this earth age and “the rest” will be made right per God’s definition of right during the “thousand years” “Lord’s day” that will occur between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. God will undoubtedly expound on this more while explaining Romans 9:30-33.
