You are funny... You are saying that Jesus is God, Ananias does not say Jesus is God...14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will,
and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
That just one is Jesus. Therefore God told Ananias that Saul would see and hear the just on (Jesus)
Hi Newbirth, lets see just what the bible say about all of this ... ok... by the bible
scripture, Acts 22:12 "And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there," Acts 22:13 "Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him." Acts 22:14 "And he said,
The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth."
now follow me ok, that term "
chosen" in the Greek is
G4400 προχειρίζομαι procheirizomai (pro-chei-riy'-zo-mai) v.
1. to handle for oneself in advance.
2. (figuratively) to purpose.
[middle voice from G4253 and a derivative of G5495]
KJV:
choose, make
ok, remember that definition, because there is a third account of this same EVENT, given by the apostle Pau befor king Agrippa found in Acts 26:12 "Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests," Acts 26:13 "At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me." Acts 26:14 "And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks." Acts 26:15 "And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest." Acts 26:16 "But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose,
to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;"
Newbirth, see that word, "
to make?", ..... it is the exact same word use in Acts 22 by the disciple Ananias, ... "
chosen " listen to the definition,
G4400 προχειρίζομαι procheirizomai (pro-chei-riy'-zo-mai) v.
1. to handle for oneself in advance.
2. (figuratively) to purpose.
[middle voice from G4253 and a derivative of G5495]
KJV: choose,
make
yes, it was the Lord Jesus who made/chose Paul then Saul his minister, meaning that the Lord Jesus is the God of our Fathers..........
