The apostle Paul was stoned to death and taken, as documented in the Greek words of Acts 14:19 Galatians 2:1-9 and 2Corinthians 12:1-7 combined, to be tutored directly by God for the equivalent of 14 earth years. The events of this and prior five posts have nothing to do with reincarnation but everything to do with God’s ability to traverse time and distance and cause others to do the same.         

The apostle John in Revelation 1:9-11 said “I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ” “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet” “Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea”. OK the apostle John was physically imprisoned on the island of Patmos circa 50 AD when Jesus brought John’s spirit unto Jesus, in heaven, during the “thousand years” between this earth age and the eternal age that follows; which has not yet physically occurred.

Study Psalm 110:1-4 in conjunction with Hebrews 12:18-24 and Romans 11:26-32 understanding that Hebrew Zion is Greek Sion and that the “election” of Romans 11:5, 7 and 28 are God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” “chosen” by God during this earth age to cause more than 8 billion human beings to “to come unto the knowledge of the truth” during the “thousand years” between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. Incidentally, the “fathers” of Romans 11:28 are the 12 patriarchs of the tribe of Israel. Jesus, in John 8:48-59, spiritually explained to church leaders that Abraham saw him as Melchizedek [Greek Melchisedec]. God’s apostles are among God’s “seven thousand” “election” as documented in the Greek words that were translated into “chosen” in Acts 9:15 and John 15:16. God’s “seven thousand” “election” have and shall perform different rolls in different earth ages. Greek noun 165 aion is an earth age. Greek adjective 166 aionios describes and qualifies multiple earth ages. If this is your first exposure to biblical earth ages you should consider the probability that God is not your spiritual grammatical subject because English noun 165 aion [an earth age] and Greek adjective 166 aionios [describing and qualifying multiple earth ages] appear in the bible 199 times. Human beings tend to think of eternity as forward from today. Eternity encompasses all earth ages both past and future but God’s bible deals primarily with this earth age.

While we are delving into God’s supernatural abilities, it is a good time to direct you to John 8:48-59 documenting that before God came to earth in the embodiment of Jesus Christ he met Abraham as the Hebrew Melchizedek [Greek Melchisedec] to whom Abraham tithed. Hebrew Melchizedek and Greek Melchisedec both mean King of the righteous. Studying Hebrews 7:1-28 1Peter 2:4-12 Revelation 20:4-6      H4442 [Melchizedek] and G3198 [Melchisedec] will enhance your understanding. Especially if you understand that H6726 [Zion] is the same as G4622 [Sion].

If you simultaneously search the apostle names “Peter” “James” and “John” in your King James Bible search engine you will be led to Matthew 17:1-13 Mark 9:1-13 and Luke 9:27-36 which document that Jesus traversed time and distance to take Peter, James and John to heaven to observe Jesus, Moses and Elijah in the glory of their celestial bodies radiating God’s light and to anticipate the future glory of their own celestial bodies radiating God’s light.

James 1:1 King James Version KJV  James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

English proper masculine noun “James” emboldened in James 1:1 was translated from Greek masculine noun 2385 iakobos which is the same as Greek proper masculine noun 2384 iakob which was translated from Hebrew proper masculine noun H3290 yaʿaqob which was 349 times translated into the English Old Testament proper masculine noun Jacob. Greek proper masculine nouns are confusing because while the writer of the book of James walked the earth no one called him James they called him by his Hebrew name H3290 Ya`aqob pronounced yah-ak-obe’. When Jesus walked the earth no one called him Jesus, they called him by his Hebrew name Yhowshua pronounced yeh-ho-shoo’-ah. English James is in fact the Hebrew proper masculine noun 3290 yaʿaqob pronounced yah-ak-obe’ which was translated into Greek masculine noun 2385 iakobos which was then transliterated into English James. The writer of the New Testament book of James is the apostle James who was the son of Zebedee and brother of the apostle John who wrote the book of John 1John 1-5  2John 1 and 3John 1 as well as the book of Revelation . There was a second biblical James who was the son of Alphaeus and a third James, the brother of Jesus as documented in Matthew 13:55 and Mark 6:3. The writer of the New Testament book of James is the apostle James who was the son of Zebedee and brother of the apostle John. The writer of James was executed by sword at the order of King Herod Agrippa circa 44 AD.

The King James Bible in conjunction with the Strong’s Concordance are brilliant works of God via the hands of human beings. You can search our old posts and find detailed history of how both came into existence. John 1:1 says “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”. The English New Testament bible words true and truth were translated from the Greek adjective 228 alethinos and Greek feminine noun 225 aletheia which were transliterated from Greek words ἀληθινός and ἀλήθεια respectively. Both 228 alethinos and 225 aletheia are from a compound of Greek negative particle 1a which is best interpreted as English not and Greek verb 2990 lanthano which subjectively means to hide by covering and objectively means to be hidden by covering, subsequent to human beings hiding and covering God’s intrinsic and infallible spiritual truth with their own fallible flesh thoughts and feelings. 2Timothy 2:15, 19-21 says “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity” “But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour” “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work”. English “truth” emboldened in 2Timothy 2:15 was translated from Greek feminine noun 225 aletheia which God just defined for us above. English “iniquity” emboldened in 2Timothy 2:19 was translated from Greek feminine noun 93 adikia which is someone or something that is not right according to God’s definition of right. The world is comprised of 4,351 different religions [even though there is only one God] precisely because each religion has their own opinion of right irrespective of God’s true definition of right.  English “honour” emboldened in 2Timothy 2:20 & 21 were translated from Greek feminine noun 5092 time being our value to God pursuant to God’s will relative to the price God paid for us on a Roman cross. English dishonour emboldened in 2Timothy 2:20 was translated from Greek feminine noun 819 atimia being no value relative to the price God paid for us on a Roman cross. The generic English “good” emboldened in 2Timothy 2:21 was translated from the specific Greek adjective 18 agathos which describes and qualifies God alone. Matthew 19:17 Mark 10:18 and Luke 18:19 all confirm there is none good/agathos but one, that is, God. English “every” emboldened in 2Timothy 2:21 was translated from the specific Greek adjective 3956 pas which was 748 times correctly translated into English “all”. In order to be among God’s “seven thousand” “election” [who are described and qualified by Greek adjective 228 alethinos] our works must be all God’s works. We must rightly divide the word of truth by uncovering thousands of years of flesh thoughts and feelings in order to get back to John 1:1. Everything I have previously posted is biblically demonstrably true. Some of what I am posting in the rest of this paragraph may be conjecture because I was not privy to the human being’s process pursuant to their objective of changing God’s original words that were pursuant to God’s will. I only understand the result. James Strong (August 14, 1822 – August 7, 1894) published his concordance in 1890 which contained Greek prepositions 5228 huper and 5259 hupo. I have a copy of the original and have found only one immaterial error. A couple of years ago a revised version of Strong’s Concordance was published with a plethora of errors exemplified by Greek prepositions 5228 hyper and 5259 hypo with the former meaning over in the genitive case and the latter meaning under in the genitive case as the grammatical subject is over their grammatical objects and as grammatical objects are under their grammatical subject. Greek preposition 5228 huper was translated into English “for” in Luke 22:19 & 20 John 6:51 John 10:11 & 15 Romans 5:6-8 Romans 8:26-39 1Corinthians 5:7 11:24 15:3 and all throughout the rest of the bible in order that we understand that God came to earth in the embodiment of Jesus Christ and died on a Roman cross in order to be our one and only spiritual grammatical subject and that we become God’s exclusive grammatical objects. Our value pursuant to God’s will [which is well defined in 1Timothy 2:3-6] is predicated upon the price God paid for us on a Roman cross [2Timothy 2:19-21]. Greek prepositions 5228 huper and 5259 hupo were correctly transliterated from ὑπέρ and ὑπό but were arbitrarily and erroneously changed to 5228 hyper and 5259 hypo to sell “new” erroneous bible study accessories. God can still define James Strong’s 5228 and 5259 for everyone who follows his 2Timothy 2:15, 19-21 directive and studies each word in every verse containing James Strong’s 5228 and 5259 plus all the rest of the King James Bible’s 783,137 words but it annoys me that flesh thoughts and feelings covered God’s intrinsic spiritual truth in the first place. God will, in the book of James, help us “be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only” and will get us back to John 1:1’s “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”.

Greek preposition 5484 charin is the accusative case of Greek feminine noun 5485 charis which is God’s temporary bestowment of God’s Spirit while Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma is God’s permanent endowment of God’s Spirit predicated upon “the parable of the sower”. God is the “sower” God’s word is the seed. “Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower”. Which can be studied in Isaiah 28:9-19 Isaiah 55:7-11 Matthew 13:3-52 Mark 4:3-34 Luke 8:4-18 and 2Corinthians 9:6-15. God temporarily bestows his spirit {Greek noun 5485 charis} unto all human beings at a time of God’s choosing. God casts his word unto earth and those human beings who change their flesh thoughts and feelings in deference to God’s spiritual thoughts and ways will continue in God’s process. The human beings who change God’s spiritual thoughts and ways in deference to their own flesh thoughts and feelings God will remove his temporary spirit {Greek noun 5485 charis} from more than 8 billion human beings during this earth age and remove more than 8 billion human beings from God’s process during this earth age, to protect them from Matthew 12:32 pursuant to 1Timothy 2:3-4. The human beings who change their flesh thoughts and feelings in deference to God’s spiritual thoughts and ways will continue in God’s process until they either fail God’s process or God permanently endows them with God’s spirit {Greek noun 5486 charisma}. It is not possible for God’s “election” to know if God has permanently endowed them with God’s spirit {Greek noun 5486 charisma} until they take their last flesh breath. It is not possible for God’s “election” to know if they have completed transition from flesh thoughts and feelings to become entirely God’s spiritual thoughts and ways until they take their last flesh breath. God’s “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” perceive themselves as empty earthen vessels that God fills with what God needs to bring God’s will to fruition. This paragraph well represents God’s process regarding Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma both of which are controlled by God alone. Greek preposition 5484 charin is the accusative case of Greek feminine noun 5485 charis meaning that Greek preposition 5484 charin is the predicate of the grammatical object receiving the verb’s action which is the predicate of the grammatical subject performing the verb’s action and Greek preposition 5484 charin has been translated into disparate English words subsequent to a plethora of flesh human beings being the accusative in the grammatical form: a grammatical case that identifies the direct object of a verb or other grammatical parts in some inflected languages, like Greek, and that affects nouns, pronouns, and adjectives. I am not here to tell you what God’s bible means. I am here to help human beings understand that everything in this life is a process pursuant to an objective and to understand that God’s bible is God’s literation of God’s process pursuant to God’s will which is well defined 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”.                                             Greek feminine noun 5485 charis was transliterated from Greek χάρις.  Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma was transliterated from Greek χάρισμα. The Greek preposition 5484 charin was transliterated from Greek χάριν which is closely connected with Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma in the sense of John 1:16 “And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace”. Where we emboldened in John 1:16 identifies God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” “sons of God” as confirmed by the Greek words that were translated into the English words “chosen” in Acts 9:15 and John 15:16 as fully documented in prior posts. English grace for grace emboldened in John 1:16 were translated from Greek preposition 5484 charin and Greek feminine noun 5485 charis respectively. There are several different on line providers of King James Bibles in conjunction with James Strong’s Concordance, with each provider having different attributes. Some have chosen to displace Greek preposition 5484 charin with Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and I am not privy to their rationale but it can all be sorted out by understanding that only God can perform the action of Greek verbs 5487 charitoo and 5548 chrio making God the sole source of Greek neuter noun 5545 chrisma Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma. God has fully defined Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma in prior posts. Greek neuter noun 5545 chrisma was translated into English “unction” and “anointing” in 1John 2:20 and 27 “But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things” “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him”. Theologians understand 1John 2:20 and 27 perfectly well but ignore God’s truth in deference to the world’s 4,351 different religions predicated upon 4,351 different definitions of right.

What confuses theologians about Greek preposition 5484 charin is that God is not the sole source when Greek preposition 5484 charin is in conjunction with other Greek generic pronouns 3739 os 5101 tis or 5127 toutou as well as Greek feminine noun 3059 loidoria. Greek preposition 5484 charin frequently appears in Greek prepositional phrases that can be used either adverbially or adjectively rendering both cause and affect. Greek preposition 5484 charin appears in the 52 verses that follow. I have studied these 52 verses per God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 20-21 directive and emboldened verses in which God is either the noun or pronoun or God is performing either adverbially or adjectively prepositional phrases. Verses that best represent God’s definition of Greek preposition 5484 charin are emboldened and underlined. Greek preposition 5484 charin was translated into the disparate English words “favoured” in Luke 1:28 “Wherefore” in Luke 7:47 “thank” in Luke 17:9 “favour” in Acts 7:10 Acts 7:46 and Acts 25:3 “a pleasure” in Acts 25:9 “liberality” in 1Corinthians 16:3 “benefit” in 2 Corinthians 1:15 “gift” in 2 Corinthians 8:4 “because of” in Galatians 3:19 “cause” in Ephesians 3:1 & 14 and Titus 1:5 “grace” in Acts 11:23 Ephesians 4:29 Romans 4:4. English “I thank” in 1Timothy 1:12 and 2Timothy 1:3 were translated from a compound of  Greek verb 2192 echo and Greek preposition 5484 charin. Greek preposition 5484 charin was translated into “to speak” in 1Timothy 5:14 “for” “sake” in Titus 1:11 “joy” in Philemon 1:7 into the second “grace” in Hebrews 4:16 and “grace” in Hebrews 12:28 Romans 1:5 James 4:6 1Peter5:5 1Peter 5:12 2Corinthians 6:1 and into “the grace that is to be” in 1Peter 1:13. Greek feminine noun 5485 charis which is God’s temporary bestowment of God’s Spirit can be as short lived as the time it takes to walk from the altar back to the pew. Greek preposition 5484 charin is indicative of retaining God’s Spirit and continuing in God’s process for an interim period of time between Greek feminine noun 5485 charis and Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma which is God’s permanent endowment of God’s Spirit. Greek preposition 5484 charin appears in the following 52 verses translated into the aforementioned disparate English words “favoured” “Wherefore” “thank” “favour” “a pleasure” “liberality” “benefit” “gift” “because of” “cause” “grace” “I thank” “to speak” “for” “sake” “joy” and “the grace that is to be”. There was a flesh Old Testament/covenant/contract between God and the Israelites. There is a spiritual New Testament/covenant/contract between God and “seven thousand” “elect” “election” during this earth age, while God is simultaneously removing his spirit from more than 8 billion human beings and removing more than 8 billion human beings from God’s process to protect them from Matthew 12:32 pursuant to 1Timothy 2:3-6. Greek preposition 5484 charin best represents God’s definition as “wherefore” in the context of 1John 3:10-12 “In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother” “For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another” “Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous”. God loathes the English words “righteousness” and “righteous” because they are 99% of the time products of self, rather than God. English “righteousness” and “righteous” emboldened in 1John 3:10 & 12 respectively were translated from Greek feminine noun 1343 dikaiosune and Greek adjective 1342 dikaios. Greek feminine noun 1343 dikaiosune is from a compound of Greek adjective 1342 dikaios and Greek suffix 4862 sun denoting union with God’s definition of right. Greek adjective 1342 dikaios whichin the context of 1John 3:10-12 describes and qualifies a grand total of “seven thousand” “elect” “election” who are right per God’s definition of right during this earth age. Folks who can do basic math know that leaves more than 8 billion human beings who are not right per God’s definition of right during this earth age subsequent to being grammatical objects of flesh spiritual grammatical subjects rather than God. Is there any hatred greater than believing that God will burn human beings who believe differently than one’s self in excruciating pain for all eternity? Is the prior sentence antithetical to the “love” documented in 1John 3:10-12? God designed inflected languages like Hebrew and especially Greek to not render themselves to accurate English translations. God translates God’s Hebrew and Greek words for “seven thousand” human beings who follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 20-21 directive and “study” every word in each verse containing every original Hebrew or Greek word in the King James Bible in conjunction with James Strong’s original concordance. Why do you think 2Timothy 2:15 says “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”.  Ask yourself why the last four verses of 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” knowing that the Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew on animal skin parchments and the New Testament was originally written in Greek on papyrus plant scrolls. Greek preposition 5484 charin appears in: Luke 1:30, Luke 7:47, Luke 17:9, John 1:16, Acts 2:47, Acts 7:10, Acts 7:46, Acts 11:23, Acts25:3, Acts 25:9, Romans 1:5, Romans 4:4, Romans 4:16, Romans 5:2, Romans 6:14, Romans 6:15, Romans 12:6, Romans 15:15, 1 Corinthians 3:10, 1 Corinthians 16:3, 2Corinthians 1:15, 2Corinthians 6:1, 2Corinthians 8:1, 2Corinthians 8:4, 2Corinthians 8:6, 2Corinthians 8:9, 2Corinthians 9:8, 2Corinthians 9:14, Galatians 2:9, Galatians 2:21, Galatians 3:19, Ephesians 3:1, Ephesians 3:14,  Ephesians 4:29, Colossians 1:6, 2Thessalonians 1:12, 1Timothy 1:12, 1Timothy  5:14, 2Timothy 1:3, 2Timothy 1:9, Titus 1:5, Titus 1:11, Philemon 1:7, Hebrews 4:16, Hebrews 12:28, James 4:6, 1Peter 1:13, 1Peter 5:5, 1Peter 5:12, 1John 3:12, Jude 1:4, and Jude 1:16 but some of the purveyors of on line King James Bibles in conjunction with James Strong’s Concordance took it upon themselves to displace God’s Greek preposition 5484 charin with Greek feminine noun 5485 charis in 43 verses which precludes you from “rightly dividing the word of truth” as God instructed in 2Timothy 2:15. This document provides what you need whereby God can define Greek preposition 5484 charin [χάριν] for you, if you study every word in each of the 52 above verses containing Greek preposition 5484 charin [χάριν]. 

Romans 16:27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen. Was translated from the Greek manuscripts containing the Greek words μόνῳ σοφῷ θεῷ διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ᾧ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἶῶνας ἆμήν πρός Ῥωμαίους ἐγράφη ἆπό Κορίνθου διὰ φοίβης τῆς διακόνου τῆς ἕν Κεγχρεαῖς ἐκκλησίας and the emboldened Greek words were translated into the English words “written to the Romans from Corinthus and sent by Phoebe servant of the church at Cenchria”.

English “Corinthus” and “Cenchria” emboldened in Romans 16:27 were translated from the Greek proper locative nouns 2882 korinthos and 2747 kegchreai respectively. We are dealing with a city of Corinth which lies in the most narrow part of the Western part of the Isthmus of Corinthus, which is an East to West oriented narrow strip of land that lies between the Gulf of Corinth on it’s North and the Saronic Gulf on it’s South. Athens Greece is about 40 miles to it’s East and Rome is to it’s Northwest. “Cenchria” lies in the far Eastern part of the Isthmus of Corinthus and “Corinth” is in the Western part of the Isthmus of Corinthus. Paul’s letters to the “Corinthians” were probably sent to both the church of Corinth and the church of Cenchria.

 

Romans 16:27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen. Was translated from the Greek manuscripts containing the Greek words μόνῳ σοφῷ θεῷ διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ᾧ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἶῶνας ἆμήν πρός Ῥωμαίους ἐγράφη ἆπό Κορίνθου διὰ φοίβης τῆς διακόνου τῆς ἕν Κεγχρεαῖς ἐκκλησίας and the emboldened Greek words were translated into the English words “written to the Romans from Corinthus and sent by Phoebe servant of the church at Cenchria”.

English “for” emboldened in Romans 16:27 was translated from Greek preposition 1519 eis denoting the point reached or entered into of place time or purpose. Greek preposition 1519 eis was 573 times simply translated into English “into” when understanding the point reached or entered into of place time or purpose is much more helpful than English into.
