Our Source of Strength
"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."
How much can we expect from God through Christ? ALL THINGS.
The Greek (Which is the original language of the New Testament, while Hebrew is the original language of the Old Testament) word translated "all" here is "pas", meaning "all types, or all kinds", not "absolutely all" (which is "hopas", as found in Matthew 24:39)things. In this passage of Scripture, Paul is telling how Christ gives him the strength to endure all types (or kinds) of things that may come his way.
"Strengtheneth" means to make or become stronger, according to Merriam-Webster. The Greek interpretation of "strengtheneth" is to "empower". "Empower" means to give official authority or legal power. It also means to "enable" or "to promote the self-actualization or influence" of something.
It is comforting to know that in all types or kinds of things we can go through Christ and He is able to give us the power to overcome!
