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.

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?}

            🌙 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!”

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 [ponéros - 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.

            🌙 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 [suniémi - put together, consider, understand, perceive] about the loaves, for their hearts were hardened [póroó - 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) diábolos is literally someone who "casts through," i.e. making charges that bring down (destroy) from diaballó - 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 

[luó - loose, release, dissolve] the works [érgon - 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.

            🌙 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.

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 [horaó - see, perceive, attend to, understand] him as he is.

            🌙 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.

08-12 - 1John 2 23-29 Luke 9 1-9

(8th ‘Day’ Studies) verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

           ☀️ A.M. 1John 2:23-29

23 - A believer who denies the Son, doesn’t have the Father. But whoever confesses the Son, has the Father as well. 24 Let what you heard from the beginning (of the gospel) stay with you! {The original and genuine message.} If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you will abide in the Son, and also in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he made to us - enduring life. [“Aionion Life”]

     26 I {disciple/apostle John} write these things to you because there are those who are trying to mislead you! 27 But if the anointing he gives, and that you received abides in you, then you have no need that someone should guide and teach you. For it is his anointing that teaches you about everything! And is true. And so it is no lie, just as it has been taught you -> abide in Him.

     28 And now, little children, abide in him - so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink back from him at his coming. 29 If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that believers who practice righteousness have been born of him. {Every generation lives in expectation of him, because the ‘end’, conclusion, ripened results (greek end-aim) is always near.}

            🌙 P.M. LUKE 9:1-9

1 - Jesus called together those twelve which he chose and gave them power and authority over demons, and power and authority to cure diseases. 2 And sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal.

     3 He told them, “Take nothing for your journey, no staff or bag, no bread or money, and no second tunics. 4 And whatever house you are welcomed into, stay there, until you leave. 5 And wherever they won’t receive you, when you leave shake the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.” {Don’t let it bother you.}

     6 And so they went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing.

     7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was going on, and he was puzzled, because it was said by some that John the Baptizer had been raised from the dead. 8 Others said Elijah had appeared. And still others said one of the prophets of old had risen. (From their grave, Jn.5:28,29). 9 So Herod said, “I beheaded John! Who is this!? About whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him for himself.

ACTS 7 38-60

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

Book of the Acts of the First Believers

Stephen, first Christian martyr, continues his history lesson to the court, 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 (of Egypt) 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” (today prayers and praise..) “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 to the further side of 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 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, but v sounds like w) 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! {And so do all.}

     52 Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They killed those who announced beforehand (prophesied) 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. {This is politics not spiritual or religious/devoted.) 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 [koimaó - sleep, fall asleep, die].
