That was taken from the Amplified version. I like to look at what the Holy Spirit has given me and look for it in the Word to confirm what He has told me and then I compare in parallel the Amplified, God's Word to the nations, the King James version (my main translation), the Literal Translation of the Bible, The Message (the Bible in contemporary language) and sometimes I check out the Young's Literal Translation of the Holy Bible... Plus fourteen different Bible Dictionaries... Five different commentaries, all in one Scripture software called 'E-Sword". It's great and best of all, it's FREE!!! Oh, did I mention that I have the complete works of Flavius Josephus, all nine volumes of the Ante-Nicene Fathers, nineteen sermons from Smith Wigglesworth... Okay, okay, I'll stop!!! Psst! And I gots maps too!!!

I agree with you, it's scriptural, I've heard this from somewhere, "The state you die in is the state you will be in for eternity..."
Love ya!

Mat 22:37-40 (msg) Jesus said, "'Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.'
This is the most important, the first on any list.
But there is a second to set alongside it: 'Love others as well as you love yourself.'
These two commands are pegs; everything in God's Law and the Prophets hangs from them."
