'Common' in the Bible
But Peter said, "Absolutely not, Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean!"
He told them, "You understand how wrong it is for a Jew to associate or visit with unbelievers. But God has shown me that I should stop calling anyone common or unclean,
But I replied, "Absolutely not, Lord, for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth!'
Then the voice from heaven answered a second time, "You must stop calling common what God has made clean!'
To each person has been given the ability to manifest the Spirit for the common good.
What harmony exists between the Messiah and Beliar, or what do a believer and an unbeliever have in common?
The gentiles are heirs-in-common, members-in-common of the body, and common participants in what was promised by the Messiah Jesus through the gospel.
By common confession, the secret of our godly worship is great: In flesh was he revealed to sight, kept righteous by the Spirit's might, adored by angels singing. To nations was he manifest, believing souls found peace and rest, our Lord in heaven reigning!
How much more severe a punishment do you think that person deserves who tramples on God's Son, treats as common the blood of the covenant by which it was sanctified, and insults the Spirit of grace?
