GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 24:7-14
Jesus continues answering the disciple’s questions - “when will this be? And what will be “the” sign of your coming and the consummation? - 7 - Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in different places. 8 But all this is but the beginning of sorrows (birth pains/travails).
9 Then they will deliver you over to tribulation [thlipsis - persecution, affliction, distress, tribulation, compression, pressure that causes to feel confined, restricted, without options] and put you to death. You will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. (Prior to 70 CE, and prior to the consummation of history. Also as an overall history - nation against nation, kingdom/empire pitted against empire.. Hebrews/Jews hated of nations in WW2. Like widening ripples of a pond.. ) 10 And then many will fall away - Christendom “falls away” by the “strong delusion” that “seats man/anthropos in the temple as god”/highest power) and will betray one another and hate one another. 11 Many false prophets [pseudoprophétés] will rise and mislead many. 12 And because lawlessness will increase [pléthunó - increase, multiply, from pléthos - multitude, crowd, great number, assemblage, bundle] the love of the many will grow cold. 13 The one however enduring to the end will be saved, healed, preserved, rescued (greek sozo - deliver out of danger into safety, safe]. “End” is telos - an end, a toll; and this is interesting “This root (tel-) means "reaching the end (aim)." It is well-illustrated with the old pirate's telescope, unfolding (extending out) one stage at a time until full-strength (capacity effectiveness).” Like widening ripples of a pond.. The pond, laver, crucible.. gehenna! - life as we presently know it, this unavoidable, all important contrast, which the consummation of is bound to be fiery.. But still to this day, is mistaken for an afterlife horror myth rather than earthly prophecy like any other. Hello? We are sleeping?) 14 And this news of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world, to all nations as a testimony, and then the end [telos - end-aim] will come.

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ 1 Timothy 5:1-7 ~
1 - Don’t (young Timothy) rebuke an older man but encourage him as you would a father. And younger men as brothers, 2 older women as mothers, younger women as sisters. And all in purity. 3 Honor widows who are truly widows. 4 But first, if a widow has children or grandchildren, let them show forth godliness toward their parents, for this is most pleasing in the sight of God. 5 She who is truly a widow, left all alone, has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day, 6 but anyone who is self-indulgent are dead even while they live.7 Teach these things as well, so all is respectful, beyond reproach.
