Gloria Copeland — Hear Your Faith

Gloria Copeland

Matthew 15:6
KJV—Thus have ye made the commandment
of God of none effect by your tradition.

Amp—So for the sake of your tradition (the
rules handed down by your forefathers),
you have set aside the Word of God—depriving
it of force and authority and making
it of no effect.

Moffatt—So you have repealed the law of
God to suit your own tradition.

NEB—You have made God’s law null and
void out of respect for your tradition.

Romans 10:17
KJV—So then faith cometh by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.

Amp—So faith comes by hearing [what
is told], and what is heard comes by the
preaching [of the message that came from
the lips] of Christ, the Messiah [Himself].

Moffatt—(You see, faith must come from
what is heard, and what is heard comes
from word of Christ.)

NEB—We conclude that faith is awakened
by the message, and the message that awakens
it comes through the word of Christ.

Mark 4:24
KJV—And he said unto them, Take heed
what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it
shall be measured to you: and unto you that
hear shall more be given.

Amp—And He said to them, Be careful
what you are hearing. The measure [of
thought and study] you give [to the truth
you hear] will be the measure [of virtue
and knowledge] that comes back to you,
and more [besides] will be given to you
who hear.

Moffatt—Also he said to them, “Take care
what you hear; the measure you deal out to
others will be dealt out to yourselves, and
you will receive extra.”

NEB—He also said, ‘Take note of what you
hear; the measure you give is the measure you
will receive, with something more besides.’

Psalm 107:20
KJV—(The Lord) sent his word, and healed
them, and delivered them from their destructions.

Amp—He sends forth His word and heals them
and rescues them from the pit and destruction.

Moffatt—He sent his word to heal them and
preserve their life.

NEB—He sent his word to heal them and
bring them alive out of the pit of death.
