The term is often associated with moral and spiritual discernment, as well as the affirmation of God's will and commandments. Old Testament Context The Hebrew Scriptures emphasize the importance of discerning and approving what aligns with God's laws and commandments. In the wisdom literature, particularly in the book of Proverbs, the idea of approval is linked to understanding and wisdom. For example, <a href="/proverbs/12-2.htm">Proverbs 12:2</a> states, "A good man obtains favor from the LORD, but the LORD condemns a man who devises evil." Here, obtaining favor can be seen as God's approval of a person's righteous actions. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the Greek word often translated as "approve" is "dokimazō," which means to test, examine, or prove. This concept is frequently mentioned in the writings of the Apostle Paul. In <a href="/romans/12-2.htm">Romans 12:2</a>, Paul exhorts believers, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God." This verse highlights the transformative process of discerning and approving God's will through a renewed mind. <a href="/philippians/1-9.htm">Philippians 1:9-10</a> further illustrates this idea: "And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ." Here, the ability to approve what is best is linked to spiritual growth and maturity. Moral and Ethical Approval The Bible also addresses the approval of moral and ethical behavior. In <a href="/1_thessalonians/2-4.htm">1 Thessalonians 2:4</a>, Paul writes, "On the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people but God, who tests our hearts." This passage underscores the importance of seeking God's approval rather than human approval, especially in the context of ministry and the proclamation of the gospel. Approval in the Community of Believers Approval is also significant within the community of believers. In <a href="/romans/14-18.htm">Romans 14:18</a>, Paul states, "For whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men." This verse suggests that living in a manner that serves Christ not only gains God's approval but also earns the respect and approval of fellow believers. Conclusion The biblical concept of approval is deeply rooted in the discernment of God's will, the pursuit of righteousness, and the affirmation of actions that align with divine principles. It involves a commitment to spiritual growth, moral integrity, and the desire to please God above all else.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

Its Biblical and archaic use conveys a much stronger meaning and is equivalent to its use in legal formalities of today, "to approve a bill," i.e. by some act, generally a signature, to express approval. In New Testament, a number of times, for Greek dokimazo, "to test, try, make proof of," and its derivative, dokimos, "tested," "tried." The word will, in almost every ease, imply that the proof is victoriously demonstrated, the proved is also approved, just as in English we speak of "tried men" (Trench, Greek Synonyms of New Testament). It is the word most frequently used for the testing of ores. That which does not stand the test is adokimos, "reprobate." Compare <a href="/jeremiah/6-30.htm">Jeremiah 6:30</a> King James Version: "reprobate silver." That which stands the test is dokimos, "approved." "Salute Apelles the approved in Christ" (<a href="/romans/16-10.htm">Romans 16:10</a>); "they that are approved" (<a href="/1_corinthians/11-19.htm">1 Corinthians 11:19</a>); "Present thyself approved unto God" (<a href="/2_timothy/2-15.htm">2 Timothy 2:15</a>); when he hath been "approved" (<a href="/james/1-12.htm">James 1:12</a>).
