NOTE: I am assuming that the Comma J is not really in the autographs. Let's not fight about that here.
Assuming that we except the ESV rendering: For there are three that testify: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree.
What would these 3 things be that agree and bear witness?
I heard it suggested today that they might be the preaching of the Word and the sacraments of baptism and the supper (broken body and blood).
Any thoughts?
