 • Romans 1:1-7  John 4:45-54

     ☀️ Paul’s Letter to the Romans 1:1-7

1 - (From) Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the message of God. 2 The message he promised long ago through his prophets, in the holy scriptures. 3 Namely, his Son! {The message ..and, the promise!} He was descended from David according to the earthly {and as written/prophesied} 4 and was declared in power {and by power} to be the Son of God. {With a message! A diadem of a message!}

     And it was demonstrated through the Spirit of holiness, by his resurrection from the dead. 5 It is through him, Jesus Christ, our Lord, that we have received grace and this apostleship [apostolé - to be sent]. And this is in order to bring about faith and the fruit that’s produced when it’s followed, for the sake of his name, and his cause among all nations.

     6 This includes all of you, who are called [klétos - called, invited] to belong to Jesus Christ. {Called during this brief lifetime.}

     7 To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints (believers; later “we shall be like him”) - Grace to you! And peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

            🌙 John 4:45-54

45 - So when he came to Galilee (but not yet Nazareth) the people welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the Passover/Unleavened Bread feast. For they too had gone up to the feast.

     46 He went then, again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water into wine. Meanwhile at Capernaum, there was an official whose son was ill. 47 When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went out to meet him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

     48 So Jesus said to the crowd, “Unless the people see signs and wonders they won’t believe.”

     49 The official said, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” 50 Jesus said to him, “Go on home, your son will live.” The man believed him, and went on his way.

     51 And as he was on his way, his paid workers came along and told him his son was recovering. 52 So he asked them what hour it was when he began to get well. And they told him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.”

     53 The father knew that was the very hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And so he believed, and all his household with him. 54 This was now the second sign Jesus did in Cana of Galilee.

            ☀️ 2 Corinthians 13:10-14

10 - For this reason I write these things while I’m away from you, so when I come I can use the authority the Lord has given me for building up, and not for tearing down.

     11 Finally, rejoice! Aim for restoration. Comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

     12 Greet one another with a holy kiss. 13 All the saints greet you. 14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit{/Presence of God} be with you all.

            🌙 John 4:27-44

(“I am he” - the Christ/Messiah - Jesus told the Samaritan woman.) 27 - And just then his disciples came back. They were surprised to find him talking with a woman, but no one asked, “What does she want?” or, “Why are you talking to her?”

     28 The woman left her water jar at the well and went back into town and told the people, 29 “Come! And see a man who told me all about myself! Can this be the Christ?” 30 So they followed her out of town and to the well to see him.

     31 Meanwhile the disciples were urging him to eat something. 32 But he said, “I have food to eat that you don’t know of.” 33 So they asked one another, “Has someone brought him something to eat?”

     34 Jesus said, “My food is to do the will of the one who sent me, and to complete his work. 35 Don’t say, ‘There are yet four months, until harvest’. Look, I tell you - lift up your eyes - and see, the fields are ripe for harvest!” {He says to them as the town is coming out to see him. People went for Jesus.. how is it later at his crucifixion/execution the people cried “crucify him!” ..They were worked upon, agitated. Yet.. people are thirsty! The fields are always ready. Teach us Lord how to water..}

    36 “Already the one who reaps is receiving wages and gathering fruit for unfading life, so that sower and reaper rejoice together. 37 For here the saying holds true, ‘One plants and another harvests.’ 38 I sent you to harvest that for which you didn’t labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.” {Teach us Lord HOW to harvest..}

     39 Many Samaritans from that town were already believing it was he, because of what the woman had said about him, “He told me all that I ever did!” {They were expecting him?} 40 So they asked him to stay, and he stayed with them for two days. 41 And many more believed because of the things he said. 42 And they said to the woman, “It’s no longer because of what we heard you say, that we believe, but now we have heard him ourselves. And we can see that this is indeed the Savior of the world!”

     43 After two days he went back to Galilee. 44 After all, Jesus himself said, “A prophet has honor last of all, in his hometown”.

REVELATION - 14 8-13

BOOK OF REVELATION

8 - Then I (John) saw a second angel following the first angel across the sky, crying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She who has given all nations to drink the wine of her passionate immorality and corruption.” {Imo, $ity of Babble on all seven hills/continents, which embraced a certain enchantment to sell. Rode upon the beasts of earth.. And what happens when they are one huge beast and ride her? Rev.17:12,16. Like so many things, free enterprise highjacked.}

     9 And another angel, a third, followed, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast {ultimately the world?} and its image {“given the ability — to speak”-Rev.13 ..nonstop? After awhile other voices removed/prohibited} and receives a mark on their forehead or hand, 10 they also will drink the cup of the wine of God's wrath {consequences, Obadiah 1:15, Ps.90:3,5-7} poured undiluted. {Things are being allowed to run their fuLL course. Otherwise why bother?} And they will be tormented with fire and sulfur {EARTHLY event} before the holy angels and the Lamb. {“All the world is a stage” Shakespeare.} 11 And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. {There’s a “palin/again-genesis”, so that must be the smoke of the torment/destruction “rising age to age” in the memories of all.}

     And they have no rest, day or night, those worshipping the beast {many headed geopolitical} and its image. And who receive the {“desolating”} mark [charagma - a stamp, impress, originally an impress on a coin or a seal, later an identification marker, owner's unique brand-mark] of its name.”

    12 Here is a call for the endurance of his people, all those who keep the instructions of God and their faith in Jesus. {Dn.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 and 1Cor.3:16, escalation being Rev.2:10?}

     13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors [kopos - labor, toil, trouble, weariness] for their work [ergon - deeds, action, task, labor, work] follows them.” {Straightaway. 🤔 I realize at the back of my mind I’ve wondered why every worker for the Lord’s, work, doesn’t follow as right away.. for “in the grave there’s no thought or doing”.. So why don’t their works rise with them at Jesus’ return? ..Because their contemporaries who “perished still in their sins” and still very much of the world and generation of their time - with their issues - rise still in this imperfect/entropic state.. not yet born again.. and not until “after” the first millennium, and also after the release of the adversary/accelerant & co. that follows it, and the consequent war, and the gathering to it of descendants of mortal survivors of the apocalypse. Rising after that “war” - which is where, at the conclusion, the second of three mentions of lake of fire is, if you know the chapter, Rev.20. After that fiery event and conclusion, begins the GWT Judgment/discernment/review/closure for all ‘day’. Followed of course with Rev.21:5’s “behold I make all new” at the universal (fiery) “palin/again-genesis”. Third and last mention of a lake of fire.} {First mention? Isaiah 24:20/Rev.10:4.}

            ☀️ 2 Corinthians 13:1-9

1 - I’m on my way to visit you for the third time. And as the Scriptures say, “Any charges must be proved true by at least two or three witnesses.” 2 During my second visit I (Paul) gave warning, as also now while absent, and as I will when I come again. {Keeping “the way” genuine/accurate.} 3 It should prove to you that I’m speaking for Christ, for when he corrects he won't be weak. He will be powerful! {We have to follow “the way” or should do something else, follow another way, not mix the other way into what was being built. Prelude to “the” prophesied millennium? Which surprise is followed by one more - outline, week plus one and within it the Spring and Fall holy days - of Leviticus 23 - as prophecy of 1st and 2nd advents. Wheel within a wheel outline. Meaning outline within an outline, lol.}

     4 Yes he was weak when he was nailed to the cross! But he now lives by the power of God. We are weak, just as Christ was.

     But you’ll see that we shall live by the power of God, as Christ does. {🤔 Literal, during 2nd advent. In Mt.13:30 “first” is Rev.16:14-15-16, and almost simultaneous, Mt.25:1-13. Siren call to the “first” is division, the wolf’s true face.}

     5 Test yourselves and find out if you really are true to your faith! If you pass the test, you’ll discover that Christ is living in you. But if Christ isn't living in you, you’ll fail. 6 I hope you’ll discover we haven’t failed. 7 So we pray to God that you may not do wrong, not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, even though we may seem to be unapproved. 8 For nothing can beat down truth, but power [dynamai] is for [hypér - for, above, beyond, more than, on behalf of] it. 9 And we are happy when we are weak and you are strong. Your restoration is what we pray for.

            🌙 John 4:3-26

3 - When Jesus left Judea and departed again for Galilee, 4 he had to pass through Samaria. 5 And he came to Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph, 6 where Jacob's well is. And Jesus, weary from his journey, was sitting beside the well, and it was about the sixth hour. [Around noon.] 7 And a woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give [didómi - give, grant] me a drink.”

     8 His disciples had gone into the town to buy food. 9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me? A woman of Samaria.” It being that Hebrews have no dealings with Samaritans. {Believed to be half Assyrian, Israel was to stay ‘separate’ from the nations.}

     10 Jesus said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that’s saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would ask him, and he would give you living water.”

     11 The woman said, “Sir! You have nothing to draw water with. And the well is deep. How will you get the living {fresh} water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob? He gave us this well, and drank from it himself. And so did his sons and all his livestock.”

     13 Jesus said, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I give will no longer be thirsty. The water that I give becomes a spring of water welling up into nonfading life.” [“Aiṓnios life” -  an adjective, derived from aiṓn - an age, having a particular character and quality of.] 15 The woman said, “Sir, give me this water! So I won’t thirst and have to come here to draw water.”

     16 Jesus said to her, “Go and call your husband, and come back.” 17 The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You’re right in saying, ‘I have no husband’ 18 for you’ve had five husbands, and the one you now have isn’t your husband. You’ve said the truth.” 19 The woman said, “Sir, I perceive that you’re a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say Jerusalem is the place where people should worship.” {Every pattern has meaning.}

     21 Jesus said, “Believe me woman, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.  22 You worship what you don’t know. We worship what we know, for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour’s coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such to worship him. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship, must worship in spirit and truth.”

     25 The woman said, “I know Messiah’s coming, who is called Christ, and when he comes, he will tell us all things.” 26 Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.”

 • 2 Corinthians 12:13-21  Matthew 4:18-23

            ☀️ 2 Corinthians 12:13-21

13 - Were you in less favor than the rest of the churches? Because I (Paul) didn’t burden you? Forgive me this wrong! 14 And now for a third time I’m ready to come to you. And I won’t be a burden! For I’m not looking for what you have, but for you yourselves. Children aren’t expected to feed the parents, parents feed the children. 15 So I’ll gladly even spend my soul {for the Lord’s sheep}. If I love abundantly, am I to be loved less? 16 But granting that I myself didn’t burden you, I was crafty! I caught you. {A fisher of men.} 17 And no one sent by me has exploited you.

     18 It was I who urged Titus to go to you, and who sent the brother with him. And in all genuineness, for we’re of the same spirit, and we act and walk in that same spirit. 19 Have you been thinking we’ve been defending ourselves to you? It’s in the sight of God, and in Christ, that we’ve been speaking. And all for your upbuilding, beloved. 20 For I fear that perhaps when I come I may find you not as I wish, and that you may find me not as you wish.

     Will there be quarreling? Jealousy? Anger, hostility, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder? 21 I’m afraid when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned earlier and haven’t repented of [changed their mind and turned from] the impurity [akatharsia - from a - not, and katharsis - genuine, to have no mixture nor contamination {rev.14:4; 7:9,4} root of catharsis; so, not genuine, but a mixture, impurity, contamination] they were practicing.

18 - While walking by the Sea of Galilee, Jesus saw the two brothers, Simon (who’s called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 19 And he said to them, “Come and follow me {come with me} and I’ll make you fishers of men!” 20 And immediately they dropped their nets and left.

     21 They went on from there, and he saw the other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. And he called out to them.  22 And they left the boat and their father, and went with him.

     23 And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in the synagogues, and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all sicknesses and afflictions among the people.

            ☀️ 2 Corinthians 12:6-12

6 - Should I wish to boast, I wouldn’t actually be a fool, for I’d be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so no one will think more of me than they see in me or hear from me. 7 And then, to keep me from becoming puffed up [huperairó - to lift self up, having an exaggerated sense of self-importance] because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn in my flesh was given to me. Like a messenger of Satan to harass me! But to keep me from becoming conceited. 8 Three times I prayed that it be removed. 9 But he said, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power’s made perfect in weakness.”

     Therefore! I will boast all the more gladly of my frailty. So the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 For the sake of Christ, then, I’m not troubled by weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, or calamities. For when I’m weak, then I’m strong.

     11 I’ve acted a fool! You forced me to do it. For I thought you would understand, that I’m not at all lesser than these super-apostles, even though I’m no one special either. 12 The signs of a genuine apostle were performed among you with utmost patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works. {To promote the message, not the messengers.}

            🌙 Matthew 4:12-17

12 - When Jesus heard John (the baptist/baptizer) had been arrested, he withdrew for a while. 13 Then later, after leaving Nazareth (in Galilee) he went and stayed in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali. 14 And so what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah was fulfilled, 15 “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, by way of the sea, beyond River Jordan, and Galilee of the nations, 16 the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light. And for those dwelling in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has shined.”

     17 From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

ACTS 13:1-42

  🗝️’s to riddles, my own New Testament in a yr study, verses are paraphrased Logic [ ] references { } thots

   Book of the Acts of the First Believers

[Saul, soon called Paul, made at least three “missionary journeys” - some say as far as Spain - proclaiming the news of Jesus and “the kingdom of God” and establishing ‘churches’ which were groups who met mostly in homes.]

     1 - Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit(/Presence of God) said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul to do the work to which I’m calling them.” 3 Then after fasting and praying and laying hands on them, they sent them off.

     4 And so, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia on the coast. And from there they sailed to Cyprus, 5 and when they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Hebrew/Jewish synagogues. And they had John Mark as an assistant.

    6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus. 7 He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of good intelligence, who had summoned Barnabas and Saul in order to hear what they were telling.

     8 But Elymas the magician, for that’s the meaning of his name, opposed them, trying to Keep the proconsul away from hearing about the faith. 9 But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit/Presence of God) looked intently at him 10 and said, “You son of the devil! And enemy of all righteousness, full of deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the LORD!? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking someone to lead him by the hand. 12 Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had occurred. And he was astonished at the teaching of the Lord.

     13 Then Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. But John Mark left them and returned to Jerusalem. 14 But Paul and Barnabas, and companions, went on from Perga. And they came to Antioch in Pisidia. And then, on the Sabbath day, they went into the synagogue and sat down.

     15 After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent word to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, please say it.” 16 So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen. 17 The God of this people Israel, chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt. And then with uplifted arm he led them out of Egypt.

     18 And for about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness. 19 After destroying seven (very wicked and heartlessly cruel) nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.

     20 All this took about 450 years. And after that he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet. 21 Then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin, who ruled for forty years. 22 And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, of whom he said, ‘I have found in David, the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do according to MY will.’

     23 And now of this man's descendants God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus, as he promised” {so long ago, in Eden and afterwards}.

     24 “And before the savior’s coming, John (the Baptist/Baptizer) proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 And as John was finishing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose I am? I’m not he! No, for behold, after me is coming one, the sandals upon whose feet I’m not worthy to untie!’

     26 Dear sons and daughters of the family of Abraham, and all those among you who revere God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation!

     27 But those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers, because they didn’t recognize him or understand the words of the prophets - which are read every Sabbath - fulfilled the scripture by condemning him.

     28 And though they found in him no guilt worthy of death, they asked Pilate to have him executed. 29 And when they had carried out all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree (cross) and laid him in a tomb. 30 But God raised him from the dead. 31 And for many days he appeared to those who had been with him, and come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. And they are now his witnesses to the people.

     32 And so, we bring to you the good news that what God promised to the fathers, 33 he has fulfilled, to us their children, by raising Jesus, as also it’s written in the second Psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have begotten you.’” {He’s the one, straight out from God one. Begotten, not formed.}

     34 “And as for the fact, that he raised him from the dead, no more to see corruption/death, he has declared openly, ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’ 35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not let your Holy One see corruption.’

     36 For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep, was laid with his fathers and saw corruption. 37 But he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption.

     38 Let it be known to you therefore, brethren, that through this man, forgiveness of sins [hamartia - missing the mark] is proclaimed to you. 39 And by him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which no one can be freed by the law of Moses. 40 Beware, however, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about, 41 ‘Look, you scoffers {and oh world} be astounded when you come to ruin. For I’m doing a work in your days, a work that you won’t believe, even if you’re told of it.’” {By witnesses?}

     42 And as they were leaving, the people asked that these things might be told to them on the next Sabbath.

Next - 13:43-52
