Paul wrote plenty of zingers. My favorites are 2Cor4:16-18. I like these because they deal with the struggle of my flesh to hold sway over my spirit on my journey to heaven. My flesh agrees with heaven bound too, but not right now.

This is a very revealing link below to Heb:11:1 discussed previously regarding the strong contrast between the King James version and others I regarded as significantly weakish, all listed in the Bible Hub llink, found on the portal page. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see.

Is Figuratively Enough?
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. Psalm 46:4-3
This Psalm recalls to my mind Jesus' comment that with enough faith anyone of us could throw mountains into the sea. This Psalm is the focal point of Jesus reference. And it was my view that Jesus was not speaking figuratively but actually meant with enough faith it could be really spoken and happen for anyone with enough faith. Matt 21:21

Predigital the more spiritual outlook
Translations up until now concentrated on each individual word definition. This more micro method changed the focus from the earlier spiritual outlook of older times toward a clearly digitally deadening outlook.
Now we have Jesus Calling translating entire phrases and expanding the spiritual view which seems to me going back in the other direction toward the more spiritual.
There are those who think individual words more important to the true meaning but Hebrew 11 in the older King James version indicates to my view otherwise.

As time rolls on...
Notice how differently recent translations soften their tongue under the weight of time. The newer translation authority weakens down the older King James word power. Tells me older translators had a stronger belief. Expect to comment more later.
