John 1:47

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye abide in my word, assuredly ye are my disciples;

For not he who is outwardly such, is the Jew; neither is that which is outward in the flesh, circumcision.

Now it is not supposable that the word of God hath failed. For these are not all Israel, who are of Israel:

For we are the circumcision, who serve God in spirit, and glory in Christ Jesus, and put no confidence in the flesh.

WHEREFORE putting far away wickedness of every kind, and all deceit, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all backbitings,

And in their mouth no guile is found; for they are blameless before the throne of God.

If any man will do his will, he shall know respecting the doctrine, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself.
