ENTER THE STORY - A NEW TESTAMENT READING SCHEDULE

Note: It was a highly accelerated biG banG into the universe that is,  like a clock not running, and then,  it was set in motion. “The lion will eat straw 
like the ox.. 
the bear will graze 
with the cow” Isaiah 11:7. 
(But first Isaiah 24:20, Rev.10:4.)
{Ps.91,46,23, Rev.7:15-17}


~ * ~ ~*~ ~ * ~ ~*~ ~ * ~ ~*~ 


List of Some Translator Errors, due to partial disbelief? ~~ Not including God’s riddles/hiding things in plain sight. ~~ Changed “all” whenever possible, to “all things” Rev.21:5, Eph.1:10, Jn.13:3, 1Cor.15:27, five times! And so repeating what 5 times? ..And more. But not 2Tim.3:16 or 1Cor.15:28, for example. ~~ Often rendered not into never and aion/eon into forever. ~~ Translating hamartia - missing the mark, into “sin” (trespass) misses the mark a little. (God is Life, and “is perfect” Mt.5:48, a conundrum for imperfect/missing the mark. But no option to stray in Eden, and creation would have to be an ant farm.) ~~ Of course five separate words turned into ‘hell’, even pit when “dust of” is in the verse & Ps.30:9. The three mentions of lake of fire are at very large, fiery events. Not very understandable in 95 CE or thereabouts, Is.24:20, Rev.10:4 (Ps.91,46,23, Rev7:15-17)

Hosea

 πŸ“– Prophecy expands from microcosm (Israel) to macro (world/all humanity. So what is said to Israel, the example, is said to all.)

     SUMMARY - away from God brings calamity, with God, blessing and everything good. {He is Life and a shield.}

     1:2 When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, the LORD said to him, “Go, marry a harlot woman and have children with her, for like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness to the Lord.” So he married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived..

     7 “But I will show love to the people... I’ll free them from their enemies—not with weapons and armies or horses and charioteers, but by my power as the Lord their God.” 10 .. the time will come when Israel’s people will be like the sands of the seashore—too many to count! Then, at the place where they were told, ‘You are not my people,’ it will be said, ‘You are children of the living God.’ 11 The people of Judah and Israel will unite.. and will return from exile together. What a day that will be—the day of Jezreel [scatterer of seed]—when God will again plant his people in his land.

     2:2 “But now bring charges against Israel—your mother—for she is no longer my wife, and I am no longer her husband. 5 ..a shameless prostitute 8 She doesn’t realize it was I who gave her everything she has—the grain, the new wine, the olive oil; I even gave her silver and gold. grain and new wine. 13 .. she burned incense to Baal.. went out to look for her lovers.. 14 But I will win her back ..speak tenderly 15 ..will return her vineyards to her and transform the Valley of Trouble {this unavoidable but all important contrast} into a gateway of hope [tiqvah - hope, expectation]. 18 On that day I will make safety ..remove all weapons of war from the land, all swords and bows, so you can live unafraid in peace. 19 I will make you my wife forever, showing you righteousness and justice, unfailing love and compassion. 20 I will be faithful to you and make you mine, and you will finally know me..

     3:4 Israel will go a long time without a king or prince, and without sacrifices, sacred pillars, priests, or even idols! 5 But afterward the people will return and devote themselves to the LORD their God and to David’s descendant, their king [Jesus]. In the last days, they will tremble - in awe/wonderment - of the LORD and of his goodness.

     4:1 .. There is no faithfulness, no kindness, no knowledge of God.. 2 ..you kill and steal and commit adultery ..violence everywhere — one murder after another. 3 That is why your land is in mourning 6 ..people are being destroyed because they don’t know me.

     13 Offering sacrifices to idols, burning incense to them in the hills ..why your daughters turn to prostitution, and your daughters-in-law commit adultery. 14 ..your men are doing the same thing, sinning with whores and shrine prostitutes. O foolish people! You refuse to understand.. 19 So a mighty wind will sweep them away. {Cause snd effect.}

     5:1 ..Pay attention, you leaders.. 2 You have dug a deep pit to trap (Ps.94:13). But I will settle with you for what you’ve done. 7 .. their false religion will devour them, along with their wealth. 7:13 .. they have told lies about me.

     8:1 Sound the alarm! 7 “They have planted the wind and will harvest the whirlwind. ..they act as if my laws don’t apply to them. 8 The prophet is a watchman ..yet traps are laid for him wherever he goes. He faces hostility even in the house of God. 9 The things the people do are as depraved as what was done.. long ago.

     10:1 .. the richer the people get, the more pagan altars they build. 4 ..injustice springs up among them like poisonous weeds in a farmer’s field. 8 They will beg the mountains, “Bury us!” and plead with the hills, “Fall on us!” 12 I said, ‘Plant the good seeds of righteousness, and you will harvest a crop of love. Plow up the hard ground of your hearts, for now is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and shower righteousness upon you.’ 13 “But you have cultivated wickedness and harvested a thriving crop of lawlessness. You have eaten the fruit of lies— 14 ..All your fortifications will fall.. 15 because of your great wickedness, when the day of judgment dawns..

     11:4 .. I lifted the yoke.. and I myself stooped to feed.. 5 But since my people refuse to return to me.. 6 War will swirl through their cities, their enemies will crash through their gates. {Shield of Life faded.} 8 .. “My heart is torn within me, and my compassion overflows. 9 No, I will not unleash my fierce anger. I will not completely destroy.. for I am God and not a mere mortal.�    I am the Holy One living among you, and I will not come to destroy. 10 For someday the people will follow me. I, the LORD, will roar like a lion. And when I roar, my people will return.. 11 Like a flock of birds.. Trembling like doves, they will return ..And I will bring them home again,” says the Lord.

     12:6 So now, come back to your God. Act with love and justice, and always depend on him. 7 But no, the people are like crafty merchants selling from dishonest scales — they love to cheat. 10 I sent my prophets to warn you..

     … have cultivated wickedness and harvested a thriving crop of lawlessness. You have eaten the fruit of lies..

     14:1 - Return to the LORD.. 2 Take words with you and return.. 9 Who is wise.. who is discerning? Let them understand.

11 - My brothers and sisters, it’s been reported to me by Chloe's people that there is quarreling among you! 12 That some are saying, “I follow Paul,” others say “I follow Apollos,” or still others “I follow Peter,” oR, “I follow Christ.”

     13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15 so no one can say they were baptized in my name. 16 I did baptize the household of Stephanas. Beyond that, I don’t know if I baptized anyone else. 17 For Christ didn’t send me to baptize. He has sent me to preach the gospel (the “glad tidings for all”). And not with words of so called eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be robbed of its POWER. 18 For the cross, indeed, is folly to those who are {still} perishing, but to us who are {now} being saved, it is the POWER of God.

10-21 - MARK 13 1-8

scriptures paraphrased to post 

  πŸ•Š️a reading & study πŸ•Š️

1 - As he was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said, “Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones - and - what wonderful buildings!” 2 And Jesus said, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left, here - not even one - stone upon another that will not be thrown down.” {69/70 CE razing of Jerusalem, and? Daniel 12:11 mid 7 year treaty, then next verse, Dn.12:12 as trib duration? With the last “ten days” (Rev.2:10) escalating to most perilous?}

     3 A little later, as he was across the Kidron Valley from the temple, on the Mount of Olives (an olive tree grove) Peter, Andrew, James, and John asked him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will that happen? And what will be the sign, when it’s about to happen?” 5 And Jesus told them, “See to it that no one leads you astray. 6 For many will come in my name saying I’m he and will lead many astray.” {A first line of attack against Christianity’s progress and well being, is translation errors of some words in the scripture, then bam! second line of attack, distrust of the scriptures, including our New Testament/Testimony. The world of course rejects the scripture, and slanders it. The Old Testament is trustworthy and good also. I think before the flood there was even cannibaalism (as I’ve come to think concerning the flood.). And the Canaanites, God also wanted out of the world, now they rest, awaiting resurrection during GWT judgment ‘day’ also called “aionion kolasin”/eonian korrection/age of correction. We know the Canaanites burned children alive to Baal, while beating drums to drown out the screams. These were during formative times. Self destruct inevitable? But SO early on? God also gets grief for noT stopping great evils. If Israel had not been warriors, surely they would have been chewed up and spit out? So much for being swaddling cloths for Messiah/Savior of the world? Had there been no option to stray in Eden, creation would be an ant farm. Trust God. Trust the Scriptures. I think translators coukdn’t fully believe, that’s how Good the message is. So aionion kolasin became neverending punishment/torment😳. Five words became hell. “All” became “all things” whenever it would work. In Rev.21:5, Eph.1:10.. and more. But not in “all scripture for training” because it won’t work. Or in 1Cor.15:28 “so that God will be all in all” - Greek word “pas” - “every, all, the whole”. )

     7 And when you hear of wars [polemos - wars, battles, conflicts {riots, etc?} quarrels, from pelomai - to bustle {poles?/division?}] and rumors of wars, don’t be disturbed. It must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 8 For nation will rise against nation. And kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are but the beginning of birth pangs. {For birthing the Lord’s long second advent.. And then the full kingdom of God.}

ACTS 8 1-24

     Book of the Acts of the First Believers

1 - And (Pharisee) Saul approved of his (Stephen’s) execution. And on that very day, a great persecution arose against the church in Jerusalem {and crested} and the believers were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.

     2 Devout men buried Stephen and great lamentation was shared over him. 3 Meanwhile Saul was ravaging the church, entering house after house, he dragged men and women off to prison.

     4 But those who were scattered went about preaching the message. 5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Messiah/Christ. 6 And the crowds as one were listening to what Philip was saying. They heard him because they saw the signs he did. 7 They saw unclean spirits, crying out with loud voices, come out of many. And many who were paralyzed or lame were healed. 8 So there was much joy in that city.

     9 But there was a man there, named Simon, who was a practitioner of magic, and who had astonished the people, proclaiming himself as someone great. 10 They all, least to greatest, paid attention to him, saying, “This man is the power of God who is called Great.” 11 And they listened to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic. 12 But when the city believed Philip as he preached the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Even Simon himself believed, and after being baptized he too continued with Philip. And he saw the signs and the great miracles being performed, and he was amazed.

     14 When the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John. 15 So they came down and they prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit(/Presence of God), 16 for he had not yet fallen upon any of them, for they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 So they laid hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit. 18 Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered money, 19 saying, “Give me this power! So anyone on whom I also lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20 But Peter said to him, “Your silver will ruin and cause you loss, because you thought you could buy the gift of God! 21 You’ve neither partnership or lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. 22 Repent of this wickedness and pray earnestly to the Lord that this intention of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you’re in a ruinous bitterness, and in the captivity of an unjust way.” 24 And Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord! That nothing you have said may come upon me.”

   πŸ•Š️a reading & study πŸ•Š️

(Paul begins his letter to the Corinthian believers.) 4 - I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus. 5 In every way you were enriched in him! Both in your words and in your understanding and knowledge - 6 even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you - 7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for the return [apokalupsis - appearing, coming, manifestation, revelation] of our Lord Jesus, 8 who will sustain you to the end [telos - end-aim, purpose, goal, completion, fulfillment] preserved as blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus. 9 For God is faithful. It was by him, that you were called into the fellowship [koinΓ³nia - communion, participation, sharing, community, friendship] of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

     10 I appeal to you, my brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus, that you all agree, being of one mind and there be no divisions among you. But that you be united - in the same faith - and judgments.

     {How? By agreeing with what was originally taught, which we are blessed to have in our New Testament/Testimony - 

πŸ“œπŸž+πŸ·πŸ•Š️(+logic) is the formula for the end-aim of “in that day” being “like Jesus”. The rest of humanity during the 4th quarter of the Lord’s long second advent, a full scope version of His first so brief one. But with helpers serving called reigning. It being “crowns of Life” not metal.. Rev.20 is told like describing the crests of waves and not much of the in between.. The 1st Resurrection is followed by - a millennial Sabbath rest from enmity - after which, the adversary&co is loosed, and they go out and gather (descendants of survivors of the totally man carried out armageddon, Is.24:20/Rev.20:4). They gather them to war once again, and surround the millennial Jerusalem. But fire, this time “from heaven” (higher than sky) consumes (all not in fellowship with Jesus are dead) - then is the Resurrection of all the dead of humanity, of all time, which resurrection according to Mt.25:46, is “into aionion-kolasis” / eonian-korrection / (an) age of correction (Jn.5:28,29!) - after which is the fiery “palin/again-genesis” of Rev.21:1-5 and 2Pet.3:12-13. (A third and final mention of lake of fire. The first is at armageddon battle’s global chain reaction, 2nd at that fiery final defeat of the adversary&co. Co. being the one third angelos who joined the sedition/straying.. This is all God’s one and done lest creation be an ant farm. How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact? Total ‘Herd’ Immunity! The dis-ease as part of the cure. — Then - at the “New Heavens and new Earth” (a 2nd biG bang, theN kosmos set in motion) is when God says “behold!! I make all new!” Greek word “pas” - all, every, the whole. “With God nothing is impossible” he “is Love” and “Love never fails” Lk.1:37, 1Jn.4:8, 1Cor.13:8. God is Life and “is perfect” ..”never fails” means does not fade, is noT entropic (this slow gehenna that is not quenched). Straying/imperfection/entropy is an unavoidable yet all important contrast. (I think the time for sharing is relatively short? Two gatherings occurring? Truth and error? To division/dislike/armageddon/hate or to 1st resurrection -> MT.13:30, Rev.16:14-15-16, Mt.25:1-13.}

1 - As Jesus was in the temple, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 including a poor widow who put in two very small copper coins. 3 He then said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 For they gave from their wealth. But she, out of her poverty has put in what she had to live on.”

     5 Some of the disciples were saying how the temple was built with such beautiful and impressive stones and was arrayed in beauty and dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6 “As for all you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left upon another, but every one of them will be thrown down.” {Lk.19:41,44 - says, “Jerusalem, Jerusalem.. not oNe stone will be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down” imo, the “70 weeks gap”!

35 - As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he said, “How can the scribes say that Messiah (Greek Christ) is the son of David? 36 When David, by the Holy Spirit, said, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet.’ 37 How can David call him Lord if he’s his son?” And the people were happy to listen to Jesus. {The LORD said to my Lord..  as in 1Cor.15:27:28, where every all is all, greek pas. So what is actually repeated three times in verse 27?}

     38 And he said, “Be wary of the scribes. For they like to walk around in long robes, to be greeted in the marketplaces, 39 and to have the best seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at feasts. 40 Yet they devour widows' houses, and as a pretense make long prayers. They’ll receive the greater judgment.”

     41 Afterwards, he sat down a short way from the treasury (box) and was watching the people put money in. Many wealthy people put in many silver coins. 42 But then a poor widow came in who put in two small copper coins. 43 So he called his disciples over and said to them, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than anyone else. 44 For they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty, for she has put in all she had.”

9 - So let us not grow weary and give up on doing good, for we will reap in due season! 10 As we have opportunity, we should do good to all. Especially, to those who are of the household of faith. {Our currently closest brothers and sisters.}

     11 See with what large letters I’am writing to you with my own hand. (Paul had developed an eye and sight problem or infection.) 12 It is those who want to show themselves off as making a good show {important? or fear of having to measure up, and missing the main point?} who would force you to be circumcised. {Or whatever requirement(s) they demand}. And this is only in order that they won’t be criticized for the cross of Christ. {Hebrew believers wanting friendship and approval from their world, of their day and place.} 13 For even those who are circumcised don’t themselves keep the law, but they want to have you circumcised that they may boast in you. {Believers can be misled by wanting followers of theirselves.} 14 But I don’t want to boast in anything, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus, the Christ [christos - anointed one]. By him I’ve been crucified to the world, and the world has been crucified to me. 15 Circumcision {or whatever requirement} doesn’t matter. Whether you are circumcised or not circumcised, makes no difference. What matters is being a new creation! 16 And for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel {whole household} of God. {Yes we are “grafted into Israel”. There “is no longer hebrew or greek, male or female (in spiritual status). The world’s nation Israel is still exactly in God’s plan as he has designed this course through imperfection/entropy, which is unavoidable unless creation is to be an ant farm. And, Israel figures much in biblical prophecy, as does the u.s. but in a different role (or that is roles, plural). Also Christianity, Islam and world politics and parties - the Revelation vision is, in very large part, veiled due to its riddles!} 

     17 And from now on let no one cause me (Paul) any trouble, for I bear on my body the scars of having served Jesus.

     18 The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you, brothers and sisters. Amen.

Revelation - 10 1-7

 BooK of Revelation

                a paraphrased study

1 - I (John) saw another mighty angel, and he was coming down from heaven. As I looked, I saw he was wrapped in a cloud, and a rainbow was over his head. His face shone like the sun. And his legs were mighty pillars of fire. 2 And I saw he held a little scroll, which was open in his hand. {Open.. meant to be understood?}

     And he stood with his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot upon the land. {Something full-scale.?}

     3 And he called out with a loud voice! And it sounded like a lion when it roars! And when he called out, I heard seven thunders sounding. 4 And when the seven thunders had sounded, I was about to write what they said, but I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said! And don’t write it down.” {Daniel 12:9, (11-12 w/Lk.19:41,44 & 1Cor.3:16, a riddle and math problem.) “Sealed until the time of the end” (vs.9). And as to what the seven thunders said, or are, how couLd they be understood until about the time of the end? Aka, modern capabilities - Isaiah 24:20? Aka, full-scale? So siren call answered from near or far, doesn’t matter?}

     5 And then the angel standing upon the sea and upon the land raised his right hand to heaven, 6 and he swore by he who lives forever, who created the heavens, the earth, the sea and all that is in them, saying - “There is no more delay! 7 But in the days of the trumpet call, sounded by the seventh angel, the mystery of God is fulfilled! Just as he announced to his servants the prophets.”

1 - Brethren, if someone has become captured by a transgression {dissolution, corruption} [paraptΓ³ma - from parapipto: a side-slip (lapse or deviation), i.e. (unintentional) error or (willful) transgression -- fall, fault, offence, sin, trespass] you who are spiritual should restore them in a spirit of gentleness. But keep a watch upon yourself, lest you be tempted and pulled in as well. 2 But if you carry one another's burdens, you will fulfill the law of Christ. {Versus “bite and devour each other”? Gal.5:15.} 3 For if any of us thinks we are someone, we deceive our self.

     4 We should all test our own work, for then we will have the satisfaction of a job well done and won’t need to compare ourself to another. 5 Everyone has a burden to bear, that is theirs only.

     6 Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. 7 Don’t be deceived, God is not mocked. [MuktΓ©rizΓ³ - sneered at, the nose turned up at, contemptuously rejected.😳] {“All the world is a stage” - Shakespeare.} Whatever one sows {puts out} is what they reap. 8 For the one who sows to the {so easily misled} carnal, lower nature {including division/war/beast nature} will reap corruption [phthora - destruction, decay, decomposition] {things fall apart}. But the one who sows to the Spirit, from the Spirit they will reap a harvest of Life enduring!

     “..you who are spiritual should restore them in a spirit of gentleness..”

  πŸ•Š️a reading & study πŸ•Š️

28 - A scribe came up and heard them disputing about resurrection, and hearing Jesus answer so well, asked him, “Which commandment is the most important one?” 29 And Jesus answered, “The most important one is, ‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God is one.” {Especially important in the ancient time of plural gods, the time of “the gods”. That God was not one of the plural ‘gods’, that were in the likeness of present imperfect humanity.} 30 “And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul [psyche], with all your mind, and with all your strength.’” {With all our very being. Logical since God iS life.. and Love.} 31 “The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no greater commandment than these.” 32 And the scribe said, “You are right, Teacher! You have truly said that he is one, and there is no other besides him. 33 And to love him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” {Those to appease the human conscience. We know we’re flawed. When we mess up we know it. And we will, unless a psychopath, sabotage and punish ourselves, perhaps sneakily like a monster coming out from hiding under the bed.}

     34 And Jesus, knowing the scribe had answered wisely, said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” After that no one dared to ask him any more questions.

22 - The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such as that there is no law {needed}. 24 For those who belong to Jesus have crucified the flesh {lower, self first and selfish, etc. imperfect (so entropic) nature} with its sufferings and {inordinate immoderate, disorderly and, or excessive} desires and longings.

    25 If we live by the Spirit{/Presence of God our Father who is Love, Life and “is perfect”} let us daily walk in his Spirit. 26 Not becoming boastful and conceited, not provoking one another to anger {harsh thoughts and words} and envying one another. {Here’s the ‘turn or burn’ in reality, fruit, results, consequences (and failure) can spark into fires large or small, inner and, or outer.. Is.24:20/Rev.10:4, speaking of sparks, I believe there is the two gatherings occurring - Mt.13:30 as Rev.16:14-15-16 and Mt.25:1-13(10) which I’ve gone on and on about before, because, Jn21:17, “lovest thou me?

27 - There also came to Jesus some Sadducees, who deny there’s resurrection. 28 And they asked him a question, “Teacher, Moses gave us a law that if a man dies, leaving a wife but no children, his brother should marry the widow and have a child who will then carry on the brother’s name. 29 Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died without children. 30 And the second, 31 and the third wed her, and likewise all seven. But none left a child and died. 32 Afterward the woman also died. 33 In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will she be?! For the seven had her as wife.”

       34 Jesus said, “The sons and daughters of this age marry and are given in marriage. 35 Moreover, the accounted worthy to obtain the age [aion] of the resurrection out of death, neither wed [gameΓ³ - marry, wed] nor are given, in marriage, 36 neither do they die anymore, because they are like the angels and are sons and daughters of God, and of the resurrection. 37 But that - the dead - aRe raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. 38 Now he is not God of the dead! But of the living, for aLL live to him.” 39 Then some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you’ve spoken well.” 40 For they no longer dared to ask him any question. [Rev.20:5 says - “This is the first resurrection. The rest of the dead do not come back-to-life until the thousand years are ended.” There are therefore two resurrections with accompanying vivification, but the 2nd is separated by GWT Judgment {discernment, closure} ‘day’. REV.21:5 - “Behold! I make all new!” Greek word “pas” - every, all, the whole.]

16 - So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t gratify the lower nature. 17 For the desires of carnality are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against carnality, for these are opposed to each other. So we cannot do what the lower nature may want. 18 But if we are “led by” the Spirit (of God), we don’t need to be “under” the law. 19 Now the works of the lower nature (the imperfect “human nature with its frailties” and self first pursuits) are evident: sexual immorality [porneΓ­a, from pornos] impurity [akatharsΓ­a (a-catharsis) - from A - not and katharΓ³s - lacks contamination, unmixed, pure; so impure {entropic, corrupt happens}] debauchery [aselgeia - licentiousness, debauchery, inordinate sensuality, lewdness] 20 idolatry [eidΓ³lolatria - from eidΓ³lon and latreia - image worship (ancient and modern; image/replica/likeness/statue/hologram/psuedo)] sorcery [pharmakeia - sorcery, enchantment] enmity [echthra - hostility, hatred] {so} strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions. 21 Envy, drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I’ve said before, those who do such things are not able to inherit/enter the kingdom of God. {WhiLe we are/were in that state of - being led - by such. Hostility seems to be on the rise? And slithering/has slithered into the collective body of believers, which causes a spirit of dislike, judging, labeling, superiority, even accusing, all such being worldly and carnal.

20 - The leaders watched Jesus. They sent spies, pretending to be sincere, so they might catch him in something he said, and then they could deliver him up to the authority and jurisdiction of the Roman governor. 21 So they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you teach and speak rightly, and show no partiality, but teach the true way of God. 22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar?” [To deny Caesar was punishable by death.] 23 But he knew what they were up to. 24 “Show me a denarius,” he said, and looking at it he asked them, “Whose inscription and likeness is this?” They said, “Caesar's.” 25 Then he said, “So render to Caesar that which is Caesar's, and to God that which is God's.”

    26 Marveling at his answer they became silent. They were unable to catch him in his words.

9 - A little leaven (in this case, untruth) leavens the whole lump! 10 I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the consequences, whoever it is. {What a loNg battle trying to keep the truth pure, unleavened, unchanged.. and what a battle. Untruth and make that plural, covers the world like a wet, heavy quilt set low in the atmosphere. Piercing through is like whistling into howling winds?}

     11 But if I were still preaching circumcision/the Law, why am I being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been removed. 12 I wish whoever is unsettling you would go all the way and emasculate theirselves!

     13 For you were called to freedom. But don’t use your freedom as an opportunity for the selfish nature and transgression, but through love, to serve one another. 14 The whole and entire law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall LOVE” your neighbor as yourself.” 15 But if you bite and devour one another, watch out! That you are not consumed by one another! {Bound to happen if the world’s politics comes BETWEEN believers.. the suspicion, accusations, labeling.. And it’s not that we must be viewpoint clones in order for peace, unity, and LOVE to be preserved. To be lockstep would be cultish. We need to always be examining our own heart and fruits. Yes?

(Parable of the vineyard continued) 14 - “But when the tenants {I just saw the word tenants as tyrants, reading too much politics!} When they saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir! Let’s kill him! The inheritance will be ours!’ 15 So they killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. What then will the owner of the vineyard do? 16 He will evict and make war with those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” When they heard this, knowing his meaning, they said, “Surely not!” 17 But looking directly at them he said, “What does this mean then that’s written? ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the main cornerstone’? {The building block. The foundation.} 18 Everyone falling on that stone {truth} will be broken, but to have it fall upon you, is to be crushed.” {Winnowing the wheat, chaff beaten from off the grain, the kernal. Truth is the “iron rod”/the unable to be broken measure/measuring rod.}

     19 The scribes and the chief priests (leaders, authorities) sought to lay hands on him at that very hour. For they knew he had told this parable against them, but they feared the people. {And the parable was fulfilled in 70 CE. If God is denied/rejected, it’s a natural consequence that his shield against the adversary’s hate and rage will fade.. They await resurrection into “aionion kolasin”/eonian korrection/age of correction, Mt.25:46, the original.}

ACTS 7 38-60

    Book of the Acts of the First Believers

Stephen, first Christian martyr, continues his history lesson, saying - 38 - “This (Moses) is the one who was with the people in the wilderness, and with our fathers and the angel who spoke to him at Mount Sinai. He received the living oracles to be given to us. 39 Yet our fathers refused to obey, and pushed him aside, in their hearts turning back to Egypt. 40 They said to Aaron (Moses’ brother, first priest) ‘Make for us gods who will lead us. As for this Moses, who led us out from Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’ 41 And they made a molten image of a calf, an idol, and offered a sacrifice and made merry to it, a work of their own hands! 42 But God turned away and he gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it’s written in the prophets - ‘Did you bring to me whole burnt offerings and sacrifices” (ultimately representing our heart and days) “during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? 43 You took up the tent of Moloch (😳) and the star of your god Rephan, images you made to worship, so I will send you into exile beyond Babylon.’”

    44 “Our fathers had the tent of witness/testimony/likeness in the wilderness, just as he directed Moses to make it, according to the pattern he showed to him. 45 And in turn, our fathers, following Joshua, brought it in the land when they dispossessed the nations that God drove out before them.” (Canaanite cannibaals?) “And so it was until the days of David, 46 who, as we know, found favor in the sight of God, and asked to build a dwelling place for the God of Jacob. 47 But it was Solomon who built a house for him. 48 Yet the Most High doesn’t dwell in houses made by man’s hands, as the prophet says, 49 ‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me, says the LORD (YHVH) or what is the place of my rest? 50 Was it not I who made all these things?’”

     51 “You stiff-necked people!” Stephen said to them. “Uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you! 52 Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Righteous One. Who you have now betrayed and murdered! 53 You who received the law delivered by angels, but didn’t keep it.”

     54 Now when they heard this they (the leaders at council) were enraged, and they gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But he, full of the Holy Spirit(/Presence of God) gazed upward and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at his right hand (Rev.12:5). 56 And he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.” 57 But they became all the more enraged, covered their ears, and rushed together at him, 58 and dragged him out of the city, and they stoned him. The participants laid their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul (later Paul). 59 And as they were stoning him, Stephen said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 And falling to his knees he cried out, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” And when he had said this, he fell asleep [koimaΓ³ - sleep, fall asleep, sometimes the sleep of death].

1 - It’s for freedom and liberty that Christ has set us free! Stand firm therefore! And don’t submit to a yoke of slavery. 2 Look: I, Paul, say to you, that if you accept circumcision (as a requirement to be in a relationship/communion and union with God who is Life) Christ will not profit you. (We cannot both earn and receive a GIFT.) 3 I testify again to every one who accepts circumcision that they are obligated to keep the whole law. {False teachers were insisting the “New Way” had to include the “Old Way” - the Old, and New, “covenants/agreements - first one needed a mediator/lawyer/a speaking for, because two sides were agreeing; new way didn’t need one because it’s basically one sided”. Yet! We DO have to “ENTER his Rest”! Heb.4. And respond, let the heart cry “Father! My father!”}

     4 You are cut off from Christ, if you want to be justified by the law. And fallen from grace. 5 For through the Spirit - by faith - we are eagerly waiting for the hope [elpis - expectation!] of righteousness. {Bestowed. And perfection! “We shall be like Him” 1Jn.3:2 but each one unique. Which God in Malachi 3:17 calls jewels.} 6 For - in Christ Jesus - neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything. {Doesn’t work, was always meant as a guardian and tutor - keeping things together, not dissolute/cursed - until the maturity of Christ in us and we in him. Not outer effort to transformation, but true inner transformation authored and carried out by God aLmighty.} But only by faith, which foundation is love. {The law is Love, always has been. One ruLe! Love God, and we wiLL genuinely love, have affection for and care about our fellow person/all humanity with its BEAUTIFUL branches. ..The sad commentary of history is shared by all branches. Any other view is political blame game for despicable purposes.}

     7 You were running well. Who hasss hindered you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion is not from he who calls you. [The letter to the Galatians is all about the New Covenant/Contract/Treaty/Promise of God, which Paul called the New and Living Way - Heb.10:20, “opened for us by Jesus”.]
