[QUOTE="RestoreTheJoy, post: 73907732, member: 411383"] Actually, I am not the one who is incorrect here, though you pulled one verse out of context. Acts 13:24 NIV. Why not try reading in context? Here are what the other translations say and here is the context. NKJV 24 after John had first preached, before His coming, the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 And as John was finishing his course, he said, ‘Who do you think I am? I am not [I]He.[/I] But behold, there comes One after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.’ 26 “Men [I]and[/I] brethren, sons of the family of Abraham,[B] and those among you who fear God, to you the word of this salvation has been sent.[/B] NRSV 24 Before his coming John had preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 And as John was finishing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’ 26 “Brethren,[B] sons of the family of Abraham, [COLOR=#b30059]and those among you that fear God[/COLOR], to us has been sent the message of this salvation.
