The second bullet is this.

  • In his letter to the Colossian church, the apostle Paul wrote that God the Father has made believers “qualified” to participate in his kingdom of light. This means that God has given them everything they need to live godly lives.

Since Col 1:12 no longer uses "qualified," I think we should delete this bullet.

2 Cor 3:6 It is God who made us able to be servants of a new covenant. This is a covenant not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

These are the only verses that use H2427. It is translated as "enabled" "made fit/competent/sufficient" or "qualified" in other versions. H2427 is not on any tW. See Issue 69.

Are we supposed to have every strong's word on at least 1 TW?

I don't think so. I think it was this:
The Strong's number of every word that an entry is about should be listed on the page -- especialy if we have used the tWs_for_PDFs text files (in WACS) to say that the meaning of a word is in a certain tW entry.

Since it is only in 2 places, and we have it translated as "make able," which should be fairly simple to understand, I think we can leave it off.

Thanks. I deleted the second bullet in the definition about "qualified" in Colossians. I won't add G2427 to the Word Data.

I let Mary Ellen know about this.
