Galatians 5:7 You did run well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth? "Sailing from Cuba, we thought we had gained sixty miles one day in our course; but at the next observation we found we had lost more than thirty. It was an under-current. The ship had been going forward by the wind, but going back by the current." So a man's course in religion may often seem to be right and pro. gressive, but the under-current of his besetting sins is driving him the very contrary way to what he thinks. (Cheever.) Parallel Verses KJV: Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?WEB: You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should not obey the truth? |
