A New Revelation :)

GOD is not a respecter of men...

Acts 10:34-35
³⁴ Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.³⁵ But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.


In Cornelius's house, EVERYONE has equal chance to experience God... Not only the rich, educated and good looking, but EVERYONE!!! It doesn't matter! God is not a respecter of man.


Acts 15:8-9
⁸ So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, ⁹ and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

Wow!!! I'm amazed :)

Most of us who have been to church will be familiar of the term 'God give life and life more abundantly'. Well, it came from this verse in John chapter 10, verse 10.I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

John 10:10

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. 

I was randomly Googling (yes, that word was used by Larry Page himself!) the verse when I randomly thought about it in the midst of my assignments... The translation was the thing that make me go 'WAHHHHHH!!!'.


Hopefully it will blow you away too :)


'Life and life more abundantly'...


... in the New International Version:

I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

... in the GOD'S WORD Translation:

But I came so that my sheep will have life and so that they will have everything they need.

... in the Bible in Basic English:

I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.

... in the New Living Translation:

My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.

... and my personal favorite in the Aramaic Bible in Plain English:

But a thief does not come except to steal, kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have whatever is abundant.
