[QUOTE="Charlie V, post: 57174626, member: 91615"] In the Biblical sense, you believe mistakenly. The word is from the Greek [I]elegchos[/I] which means, "evidence." The same Greek word is found in Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. If "rebuke" was an accurate translation of the Greek, Hebrews 11:1 would read: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the rebuke of things not seen. And that makes no sense at all... The word "reprove" in early English also had a completely different meaning from "rebuke," as back when the King James version was translated. It meant "to test and find good," which is pretty close to "evidence." (As in its Latin derivative, Proba.) Always check a Concordance before trying to redefine Biblical words to say what you want them to say. Charlie [/QUOTE]
