ENTER THE STORY - A NEW TESTAMENT READING SCHEDULE

   ⛲️☀️ Father is the fountain of Life.

   No option to stray in Eden = Ant Farm

BiG banG — > universe — > then set in motion

for “8 days”/millennia. Lev.23 is the advents.

    “In the beginning God..” and the only straight out from God one, the Son, “forever first”/proto. Father & Son being so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence.

   The being worked out blueprint - Father’s Presence will saturate, thus “seal” all creation, all mankind - Jesus is the prototype - all angelkind, animalkind, singing bird kind, &tc. “The cow will graze with the bear, their young will pasture and lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox” Isaiah 11:7. [Summed up in 1Timothy 4:10 and Luke 1:37.] Mt.13:30 is Rev.16:14-15-16 & Mt.25:1-13; Rev.20 tells crests only; seal description veils the seals & vision; vision is told 3 times; 13:13 is the seal6 1st event showing an office; 1Cor.15:22-28 w/ Mt.13:33, key word 3! (1Pet.3:19 -> 2Pet.2:5); it’s Dan.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 and 1Cor.3:16! W/ last “10 days” escalation, Rev.2:10, then Is.24:20/Rev.10:4.

All, in translation, was changed to all things.

Jesus said he “will draw all” Jn.12:32.

A work finished during his long

second advent.

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ Studies Journal)


            ☀️ A.M. 1John 3:23-24

23 - And this is his commandment - that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he (Jesus) has commanded/instructed us. 24 Whoever keeps these abides in God, and God in us. And by this we know that he abides in us. By the Spirit he has given us. {God’s own Spirit/Presence, the enduring Life. Because God iS life. And “is perfect” but no option to stray in Eden would be an ant farm? So “God is savior of all” 1Tim.4:10, from this imperfection/entropy which “doesn’t quit”.}

     {Father and Son are so close, both administer the Father’s Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” all creation and humanity.}


            πŸŒ™ P.M. MARK 7:31-37

31 - Then Jesus returned from the region of Tyre and went through Sidon and back to the Sea of Galilee, and then past there to the region of the Decapolis.  [Called “the ten cities”.] 32 And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment, for they wanted him to lay his hands on him and heal him. 33 And taking the man aside privately, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting touched his tongue. (Whatever it takes? for the person to believe?) 34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed and said, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” 35 And the man’s ears were opened, and his tongue was released. And he could speak plainly. 36 Jesus told them not to tell anyone. But they were excited and told everyone what Jesus had done. 37 For they were astonished beyond measure! And were saying, “He has done all things well! He even makes the deaf to hear! And the mute to speak!” [Isaiah 61:1,35:5; Mt.11:4-5.]

08-17 - 1John 3 18-22 Mark 7 14-30

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ Studies Journal)


            ☀️ A.M. 1John 3:18-22

18 - Little children, let’s not just love in words and talk, but in actions and in truth. {Genuinely, not just talk a good talk, but sincere affection for our fellow person. To examine our heart and thoughts by this measure/rod. Both the adversary/accuser and our own carnality is like an unseen slithering serpent. Guard our heart, and exercise discernment.}

     19 For it is by this we’ll know we’re of the truth {and in “the Way”} and will reassure our heart before him. 20 For when our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows all. 21 And beloved, if our heart doesn’t condemn us, we have confidence before him. 22 And whatever we ask of him, we receive, because we keep his commands/instructions and do what pleases him.


            πŸŒ™ P.M. MARK 7:14-30

(After answering the Pharisees complaint and accusation ..Who is “the accuser”?) 14 - Jesus called the people to him again saying, “Listen and understand, 15 there’s no food outside a person that contaminates them {the heart and mind/psyche}. It’s what comes out of a person that pollutes them.”

     17 When he had gone inside, his disciples asked him about it, 18 and he said, “Are you also without understanding? Do you not see what a person eats is from outside and doesn’t pollute? 19 For it doesn’t enter the heart, but the stomach, and is expelled.” Thus he declared all foods clean.

     20 And he said, “What comes out of a person, is what ruins. 21 For from within, out of the heart, comes evil thoughts, sexual immorality, thefts, murder, adultery, 22 coveting, wickedness, deceit, wantonness [aselgeia - licentiousness, lewdness, from aselgΔ“s - brutal – properly, violent spite which rejects restraint and indulges in lawless insolence] envy, slander, pride, foolishness. 23 All these evil things {pollutions} come from within. And they are what pollute.” {And ruin.}

     24 From there he went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And entered a house and didn’t want anyone to know he was there, but it couldn’t be kept secret. 25 And right away a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit heard of him and came and fell down at his feet. 26 Now the woman was a Gentile, a Syro-phoenician by birth. And she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter. 27 And he said to her, “(We must) let the children be fed first, for it’s not right to give the children's bread to the little dogs.” {Israel first.} 28 But she answered him, “Yes, Lord, but the little dogs eat the children’s crumbs that fall from the table.”

      29 “For this,” he said “you may go your way, and you’ll find the demon has left your little daughter.” 30 And she went home and found the child resting in bed and the demon had gone from her.

08-16 - 1John 3 15-17 Mark 7 1-13

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ Studies Journal)


            ☀️ A.M. 1John 3:15-17

15 - Anyone who is hating, is a murderer in their heart. And you know that no murderer has the enduring life abiding in them. 16 We have the Lord’s example of love. How he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives (our own self interest) for our fellows. 17 But if someone has the world's goods and sees another person in need, yet closes their heart against them, how is God's love in them?

     {This, surely(?) isn’t a call to make human institutions powerful enough to guarantee equity.. as surely that is way too much resources in too few human hands?}


            πŸŒ™ P.M. MARK 7:1-13

1 - Some Pharisees and scribes who had come from Jerusalem had gathered around him. 2 And they noticed some of his disciples ate without washing their hands first. 3 For the Pharisees and their followers when they come from the marketplaces, and before they eat, wash their hands a certain traditional way. 4 And there are many other traditions they observe, certain ways of washing cups, pots, copper vessels and dining couches.

      5 So the Pharisees and scribes asked him, “Why do your disciples not do according to the tradition of the elders? And are eating with unwashed hands?” 6 And he said to them, “Isaiah prophesied of you, saying, ‘You honor me with your lips, but your heart is far from me. 7 In vain do you worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’

     8 For you abandon the commandment of God and you hold to men’s traditions. {Today the world’s way is a huge draw?} 9 You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to have your own tradition! 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and, ‘Woe to whoever neglects father or mother.’ 11 But you say, ‘If a man tells his father or his mother, “Whatever you would have gained from me is Corban (put in trust, as put aside for God) {for the Pharisees and scribes!} 12 then they don’t have to do anything for their father or mother! 13 Thus canceling the word of God by your tradition, you’ve handed down. And there are many more things like this you do!”

08-15 - 1John 3 10-14 Mark 6 46-56

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(8TH ‘DAY’ Studies)


            ☀️ A.M. 1Jn.3:10-14

10 - By this it’s evident who the children of God are, and who are (still) children of the devil {first gone rogue one, and accelerator}. Whoever doesn’t live righteously is not of God, noR is the one who doesn’t love their fellow (person). {To have true affection for! And not just for those who think like we do.}

     11 This is the message you’ve heard from the beginning! That we should love one another.

     12 We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil [ponΓ©ros - toilsome, bad] {not good} and his brother's deeds were righteous.

     13 Don’t be surprised, brothers and sisters, if the world dislikes you. 14 We know we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers and sisters [adelphos - from alpha, a prefix and delphus - womb] {Eve is “the mother of us all” and especially our brothers and sisters believing in the Lord with us}. Whoever does not love, is dwelling and living in death.


            πŸŒ™ P.M. MARK 6:46-56

46 - After Jesus saw the people off, he went further inland, into the mountain in order to be alone to pray. 47 And when evening came, the boat was out on the sea [of Galilee] but he was still on land. 48 He saw they were struggling, for the wind was against them. And then at about the fourth watch of the night he went out to them walking on the water. He meant to pass by, 49 but they saw him and thought he was a ghost, and cried out! 50 For they saw him walking by on the water and were terrified!

     But he said, “Take heart! It’s me! Don’t be afraid!” 51 And he got into the boat with them, and the wind stopped, and they were utterly amazed.

     52 For they didn’t understand [suniΓ©mi - put together, consider, understand, perceive] about the loaves, for their hearts were hardened [pΓ³roΓ³ - petrified, hardened, from pōros, a kind of marble – properly, made of stone; figuratively, insensible, dull, unseeing, not responsive].

     53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and anchored at shore. 54 When they got out of the boat, the people immediately knew it was Jesus, 55 and they ran about the whole region and began to bring their sick ones to him on their beds. 56 And wherever he came, in the villages, or cities, or countryside, or in the marketplaces, they laid the sick and implored him that they might touch even the fringe of his garment. And as many as touched, were made whole.

     {Logically, because God “is perfect” Mt.5:48, surely(?) the Lord’s long second advent (Rev.20) will be a fullscope version of his first so brief one — The three mentions of “lake of fire” are at huge, fiery events. Leviticus 23 as an outline of the advents.}

08-14 - 1John 3 3-9 Mark 6 30-45

verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(8TH ‘DAY’ Studies)


            ☀️ A.M. 1John 3:3-9

3 - Everyone who is hoping [elpis - expects, hopes] in him purifies their self as he is pure [hagnos - free of contamination].

     4 Anyone who makes a practice of doing wrong is practicing lawlessness. For sin [hamartia - missing the mark, doing wrong] is lawlessness. 5 You know that he appeared in order to take away all missing the mark {and lawlessness}. And in him there is no sin/missing the mark/imperfection. 6 No one who abides in him, keeps doing wrong, or they have not seen him nor known him. (Which equates to “I never knew you”?)

     7 Little children, don’t let anyone mislead you. Whoever practices doing right is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil [diabolos - in secular Greek means "backbiter," i.e. an accuser (slanderer) diΓ‘bolos is literally someone who "casts through," i.e. making charges that bring down (destroy) from diaballΓ³ - to bring charges with hostile intent] for the devil has been doing wrong from the beginning. {Of creation. God’s patience is shown by his waiting for the first bound to occur rebel thought to not only occur, but to ripen into outright sedition. So “all in heaven and earth” (man and angel) would take this unavoidable journey/lesson all together at once.}

     It’s for this reason the Son 

of God appeared and was revealed, to destroy 

[luΓ³ - loose, release, dissolve] the works [Γ©rgon - work, deed (action) that carries out and completes the intention and purpose] of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning. God's seed abides in them and they cannot keep on sinning, because they have been born of God.


            πŸŒ™ P.M. Mark 6:30-45

30 - After being sent out, the apostles [apostolos - sent ones] returned and told Jesus all they had done and taught. 31 And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to be alone and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no opportunity even to eat. 32 So they went in the boat to a place alone. 33 But many who were there from all the towns, saw them going and ran ahead on foot and got there before them. {Now that’s enthusiasm, I’m totaLLy convinced, his so brief first advent is a small replica of his long second advent!}

     34 When they reached shore, there was a great crowd, and Jesus had compassion, because they were like sheep with no shepherd. And so he taught them many things.

     35 When it grew late, his disciples came and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is late. 36 Should we send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and villages to find food?” 37 But he answered, “You feed them.” So they said, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread?” 38 And he said, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And so they did, and they came back and said, “Five, and two fish.”

     39 Then he told all sit down in groups on the grass. 40 So they sat down in groups, by hundreds and fifties. 41 And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, said a blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples to hand out to the people. And he divided also the two fish among them all.

     42 And they were all satisfied. {Ultimately all of us, with what he teaches us and feeds us. The sheep of his pasture.} 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of leftover pieces of bread and fish. 44 And those who ate the loaves were about five thousand.

     45 Then he had his disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he stayed and sent the people away to their homes.

08-13 - 1John 3 1-2 Luke 9 10-17

verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(8th ‘Day’ Studies)


            ☀️ A.M. 1John 3:1-2

1 - See what manner of love the Father has given us! That we should be called his children! And that is what we are. The reason why the world doesn’t know (understand) us, is because it doesn’t know him. 2 Beloved, we are God's children, but we don’t yet know all that we shall be, but we know that - when he appears - we will be like him, for we shall see [horaΓ³ - see, perceive, attend to, understand] him as he is.


            πŸŒ™ P.M. Luke 9:10-17

10 - When the disciple’s returned from being sent out, they told Jesus all that they had done. Then they went on with him to a town called Bethsaida. 11 And when the people heard he was there, they came out to him. And he welcomed them, and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he healed those who had need of healing.

     12 When the day began to be late, the twelve came saying, “Should we send the crowd away to go to the surrounding villages and countryside to find lodging and food? For we’re here in a desolate place.” 13 But he said, “Give them something to eat.” But they answered, “We have only five loaves and two fish, unless we’re to go and buy food for all these people!” 14 For there were about five thousand.

     He told them to have the people sit down in groups of about fifty. 15 And so they did, 16 and taking the five loaves and the two fish, Jesus looked up into heaven and said a blessing. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to pass out to the people.

     17 And they all ate and were satisfied! {Literal and metaphor.} When they picked up what was left over, there were twelve baskets of broken pieces.
