Confute:
"to confute powerfully," is an intensive form of elencho, "to convict" (dia, "through," kata, "down," both intensive), Act 18:28, implying that "he met the opposing arguments in turn (dia), and brought them down to the ground (kata)." It carries also the thought that he brought home moral blame to them.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
