The last part of this verse puzzles me.  The two clauses
hO ERCOMENOS PROS EME OU MH PEINASHi  kai
hO PISTEUWN EIS EME OU MH DIYHSEI
seem to me completely parallel, but why is the verb in the first 
clause in the aorist subjunctive while the verb in the second clause 
is future indicative?

I'm sure it's something that ought to be obvious, but it isn't to
