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.

BOOK OF REVELATION - 6 1-4

 Weekly Book of Revelation CU Studies Journal, Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

Revelation/Apocalypse 1:1-3 — The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that need be occurring in quickness [tachos - speed, swiftness, quickness]. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John {the disciple, a “son of Zebedee” and fisherman with his brother James, also a disciple. John wrote the “Gospel of John” and we have three short letters he wrote.}

     2 And John bore witness to the message of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw. 3 Blessed is the one reading or hearing the words of the prophecy, and keeping the things in it having been written for (the) time (is) near [eggus - near, close, nearby, nearer, ready]. {Having been written for the near time? Like Daniel 12:9?}

THE vision 1 - Now I {disciple/apostle John} was watching as the Lamb [Jesus] opened one of the seven seals upon the scroll, and I heard one of the four {majestic} living creatures say with a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2 And I looked! And there, was a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came riding forth conquering, and to conquer. {This white horse may be two things? The gospel riding forth into the age (of our Lord, A.D.) “openly victorious over powers and principalities” Colossians 2:15. And, or, it may be an empire of Satan that finally sweeps the world. Patterns in prophecy do repeat? And logically, both will escalate, gather momentum toward gallop, in late days and ‘last’ hour.}

     3 When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” {“Seconds” - Father is veRy organized?} 4 And out came another horse. This one was fiery [pyrros] red and its rider was allowed to take peace from the earth, so that people slay one another, and he was given a long sword (Isaiah 24:20/Rev.10:4). {Obviously war. And war is given a megas - a great, large, mighty sword. Second of the four horsemen of the apocalypse is mankind’s response to the good news? Psalm 2. And the global sweeping power causes much war and the last war. As it comes into possession of the mega ‘sword’?}

09 11 - James 3 13-18 Luke 11 1-13

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

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ CU Studies Journal)

            ☀️ A.M. James 3:13-18

13 - Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by good behavior, {words,} and deeds, in gentleness and humility of true wisdom. [And from the Contemporary English Version - show it by living right and being humble and wise in everything you do.]

     14 But beloved brothers and sisters, if you have jealousy, bitterness [pikros - acrid, sharp, poisonous bodily or spiritually(!) bitterness] and rivalry [eritheia - selfish ambition, strife] in your heart, don’t boast of it! And lie [pseudomai - lie, speak falsely, deceive] against the truth.

     15 Such is not the wisdom that comes down from above. It’s earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. 16 For where rivalry [zelos - jealousy, to boil] is, there will be disorder/chaos and every evil thing!

     17 But the wisdom that comes from above is, first of all, pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, and reasonable. It is full of kindness, mercy and good fruits. Wisdom that comes from above is impartial [adiakritos - without favoritism {moderate}] and sincere. {“Reasonable” - logos - reasoning, logos/logic. “Thy logos is Truth” Jn.17:17.}

     18 A harvest of goodness will be reaped by those who sow peacefuLLy and make peace.

     {Are we in a time of two gatherings? MT.13:30? In context is, “first” Rev.16:14-15-16 and simultaneous with first lake of fire mention (and Isaiah 24:20/Rev10:4) is (2nd) Mt.25:1-13. (And Zech.14:4, Is.35:1)

            🌙 P.M. Luke 11:1-13

1 - Jesus was praying, and afterwards one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, like John taught his disciples.” 2 And so he said, “When you pray, say - Father, hallowed be your name. Let your kingdom come! 3 Give us each day our daily bread, 4 and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And let us not be led into temptation.”

     5 And then he asked them, “Which of you if you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves! 6 For a friend has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’! 7 And he will answer from his house, ‘Don’t bother me! The door is shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’

     8 I tell you, though he won’t get up, because you’re his friend, but because of your insistence, he will rise and give to you whatever you need. 9 And so I tell you, ask, and it’ll be given to you. Seek, and you’ll find. Knock, and it’ll be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, it will be opened. 11 What parent among you, if your child asks for a fish, will instead give them a serpent? 12 Or if they ask for an egg, will give them a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil [ponéros - toilsome, bad] (a hamartian - imperfect) know how to give good gifts to your children — how much moRe — will the heavenly Father give his Holy Spirit{/Presence} to those who ask him!”

[2 Chronicles 7:14 - If my people will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and restore their land.]

ACTS 10 1-20

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

Book of the Acts of the First Believers

1 - At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of a Roman military guard. 2 He was a devout man who revered God along with all his household. He gave charity generously to the people around him, and he prayed daily to God.

     3 At about the ninth hour on a certain day, he saw in a clear vision, an angel of God come in and say to him, “Cornelius.”

     4 Which surprised and frightened him. And he said, “What is it, Lord?”

     And the angel of the LORD said, “Your prayers and giving of gifts has risen like incense before God! 5 Send some men to Joppa and bring the man Simon who’s called Peter. 6 He’s staying with a man named Simon, a tanner by trade, who lives by the sea.”

     7 After the angel left, he called two of his hired servants and a devout soldier, 8 and telling them everything, he sent them off to Joppa for Peter.

     9 And on the next day, as they were getting near to the city, Peter went up on the housetop, at about the sixth hour (noon) to pray. 10 And while waiting for the meal that was being prepared, he fell into a trance [ekstasis - ecstacy, amazement, trance] 11 and saw the heavens opened. And something like a great sheet was descending from above. It was let down by its four corners onto the earth, 12 and in it were all kinds of animals, reptiles and birds of the air.

     13 And there came a voice, saying, “Rise, Peter, kill and eat.” 14 But Peter said, “No LORD! For I’ve never eaten anything that is common or unclean!” {Forbidden.}

      15 And the voice came again, saying “What God has made clean, don’t call common [koinoó - common, not special].”16 This happened three times. And then the sheet was taken up the way it came.

    17 While Peter was puzzled as to what the vision might mean, the men sent by Cornelius, having asked in town where the house of the tanner was, had arrived, and were standing at the gate. 18 And they called out to ask whether Simon who was called Peter was there.

     19 Peter was still pondering the vision, and the Spirit of God said to him, “Behold, three men are looking for you. 20 Go down and accept them without question, for I’ve sent them here to ask for you.”

     {Hebrews were supposed to remain “separated” (called out) from the nations/world - to preserve their own (righteous) culture - in order to birth into the world, the “savior of the world”. And somewhat in context, as opposed to being born among strange customs?}

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

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ CU Studies Journal)

            ☀️ A.M. James 3:7-12

7 - Every kind of beast and bird, reptile and sea creature, can be tamed! And has been tamed. 8 But no one can tame the human tongue! {And today the typing finger?} It’s a restless evil. Full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our Lord and Father. And with it we curse people. People who are made in the likeness of God! 10 From the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brethren/brothers and sisters, this ought not to be! 11 Does a spring of water gush forth both fresh, living water, and salt water as well? 12 Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh (life giving) waters.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 10:29-42

29 - But the lawyer/scribe, seeking to justify himself, said to Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?” (As in “love thy neighbor”/fellow person.)

     30 Jesus answered him with a parable, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he was fallen upon by a band of thieves. They robbed him, even of his clothing! They beat him and then they left him for dead at the side of the road.

     31 A little later, by chance, a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. 32 And likewise a Levite (administrative public servant) when he came to the place and saw him, he too passed by on the other side.

     33 But then a (looked down upon by ‘polite’ society) Samaritan, as he journeyed, came by, and when he saw him, he was concerned. 34 So he went to him. And he bound up his wounds, cleansing them with oil and wine. Then he set him upon his own animal and brought him to an inn. And there he further cared and provided for him. 35 Then the next day before continuing on his way, he gave the innkeeper two denarii, saying, ‘Take care of him, and if you spend more, I will repay you when I come back.’

     36 Which of these three, do you think, was a neighbor to the man who fell among thieves?”

     37 The scribe said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said, “Go and do likewise.”

     38 Now as they walked on their way, Jesus entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. 39 She had a sister Mary, who was sitting at the Lord's feet listening to his teaching. 40 But Martha was busy with much serving. And she came to Jesus and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving? Tell her to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, 42 but one thing is necessary. And Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be denied her.”

09-09 - James 3 3-6 Luke 10 21-28

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

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ CU Studies Journal)

            ☀️ A.M. James 3:3-6

3 - It’s like how we put a bit in the mouth of a horse, in order to direct where the horse goes. 4 And look at ships! They’re large vessels and they’re blown about by strong, gusting winds, yet their steering is done by a very small rudder.

     5 So also is the human tongue! It’s such a small part of the body. Yet it boasts great things! Like a tiny flame, it can set a great forest on fire! 6 Indeed the tongue is a fire! It can create a world of trouble. [“Anyone who doesn’t err in what they say is mature and full grown..” Ja.3:2.]

     And so the tongue can misdirect the entire body, setting on fire the course of one’s life and days. It’s a fire which spark is from hell.

     {I think this last has at least two meanings? A tongue that causes trouble, division.. misleading rhetoric.. mobs.. Which leaders did against Jesus and later against Paul and friends, and the Lord’s other disciples and followers. Until ultimately man is at the armageddon fiery blaze - Gal.5:20. Using words to set a blaze going.. is sorcery! But also, a person who has developed an habitual, terribly sharp tongue, maybe it proceeds from a deep, dark misery they’re going through? And we can pray for them.}

            🌙 P.M. Luke 10:21-28

21 - At that same hour (when the seventy-two returned, excited over their mission) Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and he said, “I thank you, Father! Lord of heaven and earth! That you’ve hidden these things from the learned and {those the world considers} wise, and have revealed them as to little children. Yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. 22 All [pas - all, every, the whole] has been given to me by my Father. And no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son, and those who the Son chooses to reveal him to.” {Father and Son are so close, both administer God’s Spirit/Presence, the same as will “seal” and saturate all creation and humanity.}

     23 Then he turned to the disciples and said, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see! 24 For I tell you many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and didn’t. And to hear what you hear, and they didn’t hear it.”

     25 And then a lawyer stood up and asked him a question, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit the enduring life?” 26 Jesus said, “What’s written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27 And the lawyer (scribe) answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”

     28 And Jesus said to him, “You’ve answered right! Do this, and you shall live.” {But we have to do it perfectly. Or accept “Christ Crucified” as our pardon, and our enduring, declared innocent verdict. Judge needing to be appeased? Our own psyche and conscience?}

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

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ CU Studies Journal)

            ☀️ A.M. James 3:1-2

1 - Not many of us, should become teachers. For those who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 We all err in many ways. If anyone doesn’t err in their words, they are mature and full grown, and able to bridle [chalinagógeó - bridle, control, restrain] {steer} their whole nature.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 10:13-20

13 - “Woe to you, Chorazin, woe to you, Bethsaida..” Jesus said, “For if the mighty works that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have turned long ago, and sat in sackcloth and ashes. 14 But it will be more bearable” [anektoteros - more tolerable, from anéxomai - ana - up, completing a process, and exō - to have] {it will be better during completion of the process} “for Tyre and Sidon than it will be for you in [en - in, on, at, by, with, among, within] {during} the judgment.

     15 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted up to heaven? No you shall be brought down to Hades” [hadés - from “A” - not, and idein/eidō - see; not seen] {gone, state of gone.. pre the Greek myth}.

     16 “The one who hears [akouó - hears, listens, comprehends by hearing] you (disciples) hears me, and the one who rejects [atheteó - sets aside, does away with] you, sets aside me, and the one who sets aside me, sets aside he who sent me.” {..The art of discipling. But like matter, communication breaks down, is under the law of entropy, as are we.}

     17 Later, when the seventy-two returned, they were happy, and said, “Lord! In your name, even the demons are subject to us!!” 18 And Jesus said, “I beheld Satan” [satanas - adversary] {first gone rogue one} “as lightning fall from heaven.

     19 Look, I’ve given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy [exthrós - hostility, deep rooted hatred, resolved to inflict harm]. And nothing shall harm you.

     20 But don’t rejoice because the spirits are subject to you. Rejoice! Because your names are written in heaven.”
