MARK 16 12-18

 🍃🕊️12/09 - GospeL Verses 🍃🕊️

(Mark’s account, likely by interview, said to be the first one written. But these verses are part of a disputed ending.)

     12 - After these things Jesus appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country. 13 And they went back and told the rest what had happened, but they didn’t believe them.

     14 Afterward he appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at table, and told them their unbelief was due to hardness of heart, as they hadn’t believed those who saw him after he had risen. [Been resurrected, 1Cor.15:23.] 15 And he said, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel [euaggelion - good news or tidings] to the whole creation. 16 The one believing and baptized, sozo [meaning I save, heal, preserve, rescue] but the disbelieving [apisteó - disbelieving, unfaithful, doubting] is {still} judged guilty. {Not yet pardoned and record struck.} 17 And these signs will accompany those who believe, in my name they will cast out demons, will speak in new tongues {have a new message? A new word..} 18 and if they pick up serpents or if drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them. They will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.” {This last, certainly true during the Lord’s long second advent consisting of 3 parts — (1)“the” millennium, (2)the releasing of the adversary/first gone rogue one (& company) and his gathering of descendants of mortal survivors of the apocalypse, to war, surrounding the millennial Jerusalem - not yet the “New Jerusalem” - and then his fiery, final defeat. And third, (3)the GWT judgment ‘day’.

     Because Jesus’ first brief advent perfectly fulfilled the - Spring - holy days of Leviticus 23 (as if they are prophecy) I think, logically, the Fall ones prophecy his long second advent. See the names and pattern. 🤓And because of the pattern, I think the release of the adversary, the gathering and the war, is 500 years - between the Sabbath millennium (7th) and GWT judgment ‘day’ as the 2nd half of an 8th millennium, the “8th day” and “last great day” Lev.23:36, and Jn.7:37 -> CU/Christian Universalism.
