thank you to everyone who has helped with questions in my past because i want to thank everyone always but theres so many people sometimes and its hard to get to it sometimes...i was wondering about a verse. it says "and that he may send the christ who has been aportioned to you-even christ....it makes it sound exactly as if its say that a christ with come and even the other christ who was jesus...what does it mean exactly?
Luckyd,
It doesn't sound nearly as confusing in the King James, Acts 3:20"And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:"

The King James is far superior to all the other versions, and supports the "Majority Text".
