This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
That the communication of thy faith: the word sometime signifieth communion, in all which there is a mutual communication between those with whom the commmunion is. That thou mayst declare that thou hast the same common faith with us, thou communicatest the fruits of it.
May become effectual; and showest that it is not a dead, inoperative faith, but the true faith of God’s elect, Tit_1:1, working by love, Gal_5:6, and showing itself by good works, Jam_2:18.
By the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ
Jesus; that every good thing, every good habit of grace which Jesus Christ hath wrought in thy soul, might be acknowledged by others, (the servants of Christ), to whom thou declarest thy love and goodness.
