A Very Important Two-letter Word

By Ron Adams

     It’s found in each of the following Scriptures. What is it?
  • Jesus therefore was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine.” John 8:31
  • Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:1-2
  • What use is it, my brethren, if a man says he has faith, but he has no works? Can that faith save him? James 2:14
  • And as they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch said, “Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?” And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” And he ordered the chariot to stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch; and he baptized him. Acts 8:36-38
  • “For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.” Matthew 6:14-15
     ANSWER: IF: on the condition that; in the event that.
