“Prayer & supplication”-singular feminine
Kuya, I have a question about Ephesians 6:18, I searched for the phrase “to this end”, and I discovered that it means “to this purpose”...now,for me to be able to connect propositions, I tried to look-up for the greek of “purpose”, and it is “singular neuter”...so I have to find the word that has “singular neauter” in order to identify what the “purpose” refers to.. “Spirit”-singular masculine “Prayer & supplication”-singular feminine .. Now, I do not know which proposition to connect kuya. Can you help me? ..
Prayer is not another piece of armor but is the way believers appropriate God’s armor and stand firm
Mora syag concessive kay “in chains”...unsa ng “ that” sa 20b?
