Matthew 10:20 For it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you. A man is walking sluggishly home, and thinking of the drudgery of the day, and he hears the fire-bell, and instantly he says, "Why, that is my district; how did I leave things?" Instantly he thinks of the way in which he left his shop and the tire; and then he says to himself, "If it is there, what treasure I have in that shop, open and exposed! Why, there is powder there!" In an instant that man, not by any slow process of analyzing, but with a flash, thinks of a thousand things; and they are all material things; they are not higher thoughts and realities at all. (Beecher.) Parallel Verses KJV: For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.WEB: For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. |
