Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Luke 15:11-20
11 - Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.’ So he divided his property between them. 13 And not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered everything in reckless living. 14 And when he had spent all, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. 16 And it came about that he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him a thing. 17 Then he came to himself and said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough food? And here I perish with hunger! 18 I will go back to my father, and I’ll say to him, ‘Father, I’ve sinned against heaven and before you, 19 and I’m no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.’ 20 And he went home to his father. And then while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. His heart swelled, and he ran and embraced his son and kissed him!” (Where’s the angry Father who has to be appeased by sacrifice? Perhaps we’ve misread the atonement. Atonement it is! But what is really appeased? For all. Strong enough for all. Cannot miss the mark.)

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ 2 Thessalonians 2:11-3:5 ~
11 - Therefore God sends [pempó - send, transmit, permit to go, put forth - occurred seventy nine times, never translated permitted, Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance includes “thrust in”] (let happen(?) a strong delusion, that they would believe what is false. (Is there a stronger delusion than creation just happened?) 12 In order for judgment of the not believing the truth, but thought well of the unrighteousness/injustice [adikia - injustice, unrighteousness, from A - not, and dike - justice, rightness (thought well of the false, the not right)].
13 We however should always give thanks to God for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, who has chosen you from the beginning [arché - beginning, origin] for salvation by sanctification of the Spirit(/Presence of God) and belief in the truth. 14 To this he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus.
15 So then, stand firm and hold to the traditions that you were taught by us, either by our spoken word or by our letter. 16 And may our Lord Jesus himself, and God our Father, who is loving us and giving us enduring comfort and the good hope [elpis - expectation] by grace. 17 May he comfort your hearts and make them steadfast in every good work and word.
3 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run its course speedily and be honored, as has happened among you. 2 And that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men. For not all have faith. 3 But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one. 4 And we have confidence in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things we have instructed. 5 And may the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.
