Galatians 5:9
King James Version
9 Jun 2026
“A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.”
ὅλος
Whole, complete, entire. Holos. Love the Lord your God with all your heart. God does not want a portion of you. He wants all of you. Half-hearted devotion is not devotion.
μικρός
A little

μικρός
Small, little, least. Mikros. Unless you become like a little child. The kingdom belongs to the small in their own eyes. Greatness in the kingdom is measured differently.
