You cannot not mix/match English defintions with Greek/Hebrew definitions in order to prove your point. If you want to prove what the Bible says then you must use Biblical definitions only. Modern English definitions are tainted with a myriad of cultural and religious influences.

When greek words are defined to us in the english language then yes you can use english definitions.
If they are tainted then those that write greek dictionaries need to choose better ENGLISH words into which to translate them and tell us what they mean.
