Hey HC,
Here is some valuable information, that was life-altering for me:
1.). Almost every time in the NT that you encounter the phrase “believe in” Christ or the Father, the Greek should be properly rendered “be loyal/faithful to”.
2.). Every time your English NT reads “believe on Him/Me/Christ” it should read “rely/depend on”
3.). Faith should be rendered as faithfulness or reliance, depending on the context.
BTW, pastors and many Christians get greatly agitated and defensive when I point these things out to them. They feel threatened and some get angry. Humble people are more receptive than the arrogant it seems
