1 Corinthians 12:17
King James Version

“If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?”
εἰ
If, whether, that. Ei. Scripture's great conditionals hinge on this word, framing promises, warnings, and tests of faith. If you confess, if you believe, if you remain. The ifs of God are invitations, not uncertainties.
