The Answer is in the Witnesses

Recently I came across scriptures in the Bible I didn’t fully understand regarding the Spirit of Truth and the Holy Spirit.

But as I continued my study, I decided to pray asking God for help, to lead me to the Truth. Wasn’t to terribly long when I came across the scriptures about the three Witnesses.

I have 7 Bibles, but, I also use Biblehub which allows me to view other translations. However, my favorite is the New King James Bible. And it’s while reading it that I came across this scripture. I was already familiar with it, but, I hadn’t realized the complete significance of it. The Scriptures read;

This is He who came by water and blood-Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is Truth. For there are three that bear witness in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the Water, and the Blood; and these agree as one.

1 John 5:6-8

Did you catch it?

The key lies in the phrase, “For there are three that bear Witness in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Spirit; and these three are one.

What’s interesting many of the Bible translations have completely taken the Scripture 1 John 5:7 completely out. However, I was able to confirm it in the KJV, the NKJB and the online Lexicon.
