ACTS 16-20-40

 Luke wrote “of the things fulfilled among us” paraphrased [ ] ref { } thots

     Book of the Acts of the First Believers

20 - And when they had brought Paul and Silas to the authorities, they said, “These men are Jews/Hebrews and they are disturbing our city! 21 They’re teaching customs that aren’t lawful for us as Romans!”

     22 The crowd joined in attacking them, so the magistrates tore their garments and gave orders to have them beaten with rods. 23 And when they had beat them with many blows, they threw them into prison and ordered the jailer to keep them securely locked up. 24 So the jailer put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.

     25 At about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening. 26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake. The foundations of the prison were shaken, all the doors were opened and everyone's bonds were loosened. {Praise can break chains.}

     27 When the jailer woke and saw the prison doors were open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. (That was the penalty.) 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, “Don’t harm yourself! We are all here!” 29 And the jailer called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas. 30 Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?!”

     31 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” 32 And they spoke the word of the LORD to him and to all who were in the house. 33 And the jailer the same hour of the night, cleansed their wounds. And he and all his family were baptized. 34 Then he brought them up into his house and set food before them. And he rejoiced along with his entire household to be believing in God.

     35 But then when it was day, the magistrates sent the police, saying, “Let those men go.” 36 And the jailer reported it to Paul, saying, “The leaders have sent to let you go. Therefore come out and go in peace.” 37 But Paul said, “They have beaten us publicly, men who were not condemned and who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison! And now do they throw us out secretly? No! Let them come themselves and let us out.”

     38 The officers reported this to the magistrates, who were afraid when they found out they were Roman citizens. 39 So they came and apologized and led them out and asked them to leave the city. 40 So they went out of the prison and went to Lydia’s house. And when they had seen the believers, and encouraged them, they departed.

 • Romans 9:1-8  Matthew 12:46-50

            ☀️ Romans 9:1-8

1 -  I (Paul) am speaking the truth in Christ - I’m not lying, my conscience bearing witness to me in God’s Holy Spirit - 2 that I have great sorrow and unending anguish in my heart! 3 I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers! My kinsmen according to the flesh. {‘Accursed’ - to rise into GWT judgment ‘day’ of kolasis/korrection/correction, separated from the “first resurrection” at the Lord’s (literal and full) appearing and return.}

     4 They’re Israelites! And to them belong the adoption! The glory! The covenants! The giving of the law, the worship, and the promises! 5 To them belong the patriarchs. And from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is over all, and God blessed forever. Amen and amen! {But alas.. the “human condition”.}

     6 But it’s not as though the word [logos - reasoning, word, message] {plan/working} of God has failed! For not all who are descended from Israel are belonging to {the spiritual, totality and ultimate} Israel. 7 And not all are children of Abraham because they are his (mortal) offspring. But as it’s written, “through Isaac shall your descendants be.” 8 This means it’s not the mortal person who is named as being a child of God {not the imperfect strayed self} but it’s the children {and self} of the promise who are counted/named as the children.

           🌙 Matthew 12:46-50

46 - While he was still speaking to the crowd of people, word came that his mother and his brothers were outside, asking to speak to him. 48 But he replied, “Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?” 49 And gesturing to his disciples, followers and students, he said, “Here, these are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” {And then very likely he went out to them or had them brought in to him, being a good Jewish/Hebrew son and brother. This is like Israel, too.. Israel waits ‘outside’ during this “time of the gentiles/nations” sometimes called ‘the church age’ but now due to a “strong delusion” of “seating man/anthropoi in the temple as god”/highest power, society has largely “fallen away” (and into “lawlessness”) and will make human governing to be ‘god’ and ‘all powerful’.) Two concurrent gatherings? Mt.13:30 as Rev.16:13-14-15, siren call division with global effect called bowls/wrath, and (or to) Mt.25:1-13, “whoever does the will of My Father in heaven”.}

 • Romans 8:34-39  Matthew 12:38-45

            ☀️ Romans 8:34-39

34 - So who is there to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died. And more than that, it’s he who was raised! And is now at the right hand of God interceding for us.

     35 Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Can tribulation or distress? Persecution, or famine? Nakedness, or danger? Or sword? 36 As it’s written, “For your sake we are being killed” (dying/entropy) “all the day long, we are thought of” {by the adversary and enmity} “as sheep for slaughter.”

     37 But in all these things, we are more than conquerors! Through he who loves us! 38 For I know that neither death nor life, angels nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything in all of creation, is able to separate us from the love of God {so openly displayed} in the person of Christ Jesus our Lord.

           🌙 Matthew 12:38-45

38 - Then some of the scribes and Pharisees (political leaders of the nation) said to Jesus, “Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.” 39 But he answered, “An evil [ponéros - evil, wicked, bad, malicious] and unfaithful generation/age” [genea - age, generation, nation, time] {I think human genea} “seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

     40 Just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be - three days and three nights - in the heart of the earth. {The “lower part of the earth” is the grave. 2Pet.2:5 answers 1Pet.3:19-20. Ro.6:23.} 41 The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and speak against it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

     42 The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with this generation and speak against it, for she came from the ends of earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

     43 When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through dry places seeking where to rest, but doesn’t find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I’ll return to my house from which I came out!’ And when it returns, it finds the house empty, swept, and put in order. 45 So it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, they enter and dwell there, and the state of that person {or house, or nation} is worse than it was at first. So also will it be with this evil generation.” {John the Baptist/Baptizer said “the axe is already at the root of the tree!” Aka, ready to strike. Results, cause and effect, entropy, corruption. Power corrupts.}

 • Romans 8:26-33  Matthew 12:22-37

            ☀️ Romans 8:26-33

{As we await the full kingdom} 26 - The Spirit {of God} helps us in our weakness. For we don’t know what we should pray for, but the Spirit{/Presence of God} himself intercedes for us with groanings of the heart too deep for words, 27 and shines a light on what God is doing, for his spirit is guiding the prayer. 28 We know all things work together for good, for those who love God, who are being called according to his purpose. 29 For those foreknown [proginṓskō - from pró - before" and ginṓskō - know] HE predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that the Son might be the firstborn among many. 30 And those whom he predestined he calls, and those whom he calls he justifies. And those whom he justifies he will glorify.

     31 What then shall we say to these things?! If God is for us, who can be against us?! 32 He who didn’t spare his own Son but gave him up for us all [pas - every, the whole, the entire, all] how will he not also with him graciously give us all [pas - every, the whole, the entire, all]? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It’s GOD who justifies.

            🌙 Matthew 12:22-37

22 - Then a demon-oppressed man who was both blind and mute was brought to Jesus. So he healed him, and the man could then speak and see. 23 The people were amazed, and they said, “Can this be the Son of David?” 24 But when the Pharisees (leaders of the nation) heard of it, they said to one another, “It’s by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons.”

     25 Aware of their thoughts, Jesus said, “Every kingdom divided against itself comes to ruin” {why division is sowed?} “and no city or house divided - against itself - will remain standing. 26 So if Satan casts out Satan, he’s divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?

     27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? So let them be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit{/Presence} of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you. 29 For how can someone enter a strong man's house {man’s world} and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man {aka “god of this world”}? Then he is able to plunder his house. 30 Whoever isn’t with me is against me, and whoever doesn’t gather with me scatters. 

     31 I tell you, every sin and blasphemy is forgiven, but the blasphemy against the Spirit(/Presence of God) is not forgiven. [Greek words don’t have much future tense. Blasphemy/insulting or raging against God’s Spirit/Presence cannot be forgiven - aphiémi - left, forgiven, abandoned, sent away, whiLe blaspheming/raging/insulting.}

     32 Whoever speaks against the Son of Man, forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit not forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.” {This age - up to Jerusalem’s razing in 70 CE and next the “church age”? Or all of CE, then what’s called “the” millennium which precedes the second (collective) resurrection of Rev.20.}

    33 “So either make the tree good and its fruit good! Or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad! For a tree is known by its fruit!

     34 You nest of vipers! How can you speak good, while being evil? For it’s out of the abundance of the heart, that the mouth speaks.

     35 A good person out of their good treasure brings forth good, and the evil [ponéros - wicked, bad, malicious] person out of malicious treasure brings forth evil. 36 I tell you, during day of judgment people will give account [logos - reasoning] for every careless word they speak. 37 For by your words you’re justified. And by your words, are you judged.”

     {Jn.5:22 - “God judges no one.” - Jn.12:47 - Jesus said “..I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world”. So who judges? What “correction” (kolasis, from “aionion kolasis” of Mt.25:46) is most effective?}

17 - And if we’re (His) sons and daughters, then we’re heirs. Heirs of God, and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. {Following after Jesus just naturally includes some societal disadvantages, sometimes even in the extreme, plus life’s regular hardships, sorrows, etc.}

     18 For I consider that the sufferings of these present ages aren’t worth mentioning, compared with the glory that is to be revealed! 19 All creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the children of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility {imperfection/“missing the mark”/entropy} not willingly, but HE subjected it, in expectation [elpis - expectation, trust, confidence] {which translators translate as “hope”. Especially in this case however, it’s not like God aLmighty - who created the vast universe (via a bang into the universe as is, theN it was set in motion) and the great array of life, as but a small clue to his abilities - is merely hoping things go as he wants!} 21 (In expectation/planning/design) that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption {entropy, and predator-ness} and obtain the freedom, glory and blessedness of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation is always groaning together as in pain of childbirth. 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit. We groan inwardly for the {full} adoption as sons and daughters, as we await the redemption of our bodies. [Redemption - apolýtrōsis - from apó - from, and lytróō - redeem – properly, redemption– literally, buying back from, re-purchasing (winning back) what was previously forfeited (lost).] 24 For it’s in this hope [expectation!] that we are saved! [Sózó - saved, rescued, delivered, healed, preserved.] Now expectation [elpizo] that’s seen isn’t expectation. For who is expecting what they see? Or who would be expecting what they already see? 25 But if we’re expecting what we don’t yet see, then we’re waiting for it with patience.

            🌙 Matthew 12:14-21

14 - So the Pharisees who were there (some leaders of the nation of the Pharisee party) left. And they called together a meeting and conspired together how they might destroy Jesus.

     15 Knowing this, Jesus moved on from there. And many people were following after him, and he healed them all, 16 and told them not to make him known. 17 This is as was spoken by the prophet Isaiah - 18 “Behold, my servant, chosen and beloved of me, with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit{/Presence} upon him. And he will proclaim justice to the nations. 19 He won’t quarrel. Nor will he cry out. You won’t hear his voice in the public square. 20 A bruised reed he is not going to break, and a smoldering wick he is not going to put out. Not until he brings justice to victory! 21 For it’s in his name that the nations will trust.” [Elpizó - expect, trust, hope].

17 - The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and then a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, “It’s done!”

     18 And there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as there had never been since man was upon the earth, so great was that earthquake. {Isaiah 24:2/Rev.1:4.}

     19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drink fully the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath. {Full cup of consequences.}

     20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. 21 And great hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, fell from heaven [ouranos - heaven, heavens, sky]. And they cursed God for the plague of the hail, because the plague was so great. {The higher and faster moisture rises, the bigger and greater the hail. And it forms in layers.}

11 - If the Spirit of he who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then you can be sure he will also give life to your mortal body because of his Spirit that has a home in you. {“First resurrection.” It and the second, are collective resurrections.} 12 So then, brothers (and sisters) [adelphos - from the same womb] we are debtors. Indebted to not live according to the human condition nature. 13 For if we live according to it we will be dying, but if by the Spirit {Presence of God, the OT bread of the Presence, for the priest} you let the old self-first and foremost nature pass away, along with unfaithful deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons (and daughters) of God. 15 For you have not received the spirit as though you are a fearful captive! But you have received the Spirit of adoption. Where our heart’s cry is “Abba! Father!” {My Father!} 16 His Spirit/Presence - bears witness/testifies with our spirit {is proof} that we are his.

            🌙 Matthew 12:1-13

1 - It was at about this time that Jesus was walking past grain fields on the Sabbath and his disciples were hungry, so they began to pluck heads of grain and were eating them. 2 And when some Pharisees (leaders of the leading party of the nation) saw it, they told him, “It’s not lawful for your disciples to do that on the Sabbath!”

     3 But he answered, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him? 4 How he entered the very house of God and ate the bread of the Presence! Which isn’t lawful for anyone to eat but the priests?

     5 Have you read in the Law how on the Sabbath the priests in the temple service are violating the Sabbath? But they are free of guilt?

     6 I tell you, something greater than the temple is here. 7 And if you had known what it means - ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t condemn the innocent. 8 For the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.” {HE does not desire sacrifices.. so what is appeased? The guilty conscience is appeased? Christ Crucified strong enough to appease every conscience, and God taking responsibility. He iS life so lives through all that occurs. “Let us make mankind in our likeness”. Father and Son ‘punished’ more than all others. No option to stray, would be an Ant Farm which is no paradise/perfection. God “is perfect” and is Life (surely?) so imperfect is entropy which “doesn’t quit” but ends as death.}

     9 He went on from there and entered the synagogue. 10 And a man was there with a withered hand. And they asked him, hoping to accuse him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” 11 He said, “Which one of you who has a lamb, if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, won’t take hold of it and lift it out? 12 And of how much more value is a man than a sheep! It’s lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”

     13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And so the man stretched it out, and all could see it was restored, whole and healthy like the other.

            ☀️ Romans 8:3-10

3 - For God has done what the law, made weak by the human condition {“missing the mark”/imperfect nature} couldn’t do.

     He did it by sending his own Son {only straight out from God one} in the likeness of the human condition, to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to carnality {the self first and foremost nature} but walk according to the Spirit. 5 For those who live according to the selfish nature, set their minds on the things of self gratification, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the mind on merely gratifying the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7 For the mind that is set upon the flesh and selfish nature is hostile to God, for it doesn’t submit to God's law. Indeed, it cannot. 8 So those who dwell therein cannot please God. {“The flesh” doesn’t mean the body, which after all God designed. Matter is not the problem, imperfection is the problem.. It’s both entropy, and an abyss of potential, that concludes in death/passing away.}

     9 You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit oF God (His Spirit/Presence) dwells in you.

     Anyone who doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, doesn’t belong to him. 10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead {entropic/dying} - because of sin, the Spirit is life - because of righteousness.

            🌙 John 5:30-47

(Jesus continues to leaders of the nation, and the people around them.) 30 - “I can do nothing on my own. And what I hear, is how I judge, and my judgment is just, because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of he who sent me.

     31 If only I bear witness about myself, my testimony isn’t trustworthy. 32 But there’s another who bears witness about me, and I know his testimony is true.

     33 You sent for John. And he bore witness to the truth. 34 Not that the testimony I receive is from man, but I say these things so you may be saved. {From death and its cause.} 35 He was a shining and burning lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in its light.

     36 But the testimony I have is greater than that of John. For the works the Father has given me to do, the very works I’m doing, bear witness, that the Father has sent me.

     37 And the Father who sent me has himself bore witness. But his voice you haven’t heard, nor have you seen him. 38 And you don’t have his word/truth abiding in you, for you don’t believe the one he has sent to you. 39 You search the Scriptures because you think in them you have enduring life. And it’s the scriptures that bear witness of me! 40 Yet you refuse to come to me. 41 For my honor isn’t of man. {Not of mankind’s systems of professionals, titles, honors, esteem and awards.}

     42 I know you don’t have the love of God in you. 43 For I’ve come in my Father's name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in their own name, you receive them. 44 How can you believe, when you receive recognition from one another, and don’t seek the recognition that comes from the only God? 45 Don’t think I’ll accuse you to the Father. There’s one who accuses you. Moses! The one on whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me. For he wrote of me. 47 But if you don’t believe his words, how will you believe mine?”
