MATTHEW 11 20-30

    🍃🕊️02/04 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

20 - Then Jesus began to scold the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent. [Metanoéō - from metá - changed after being with, and noiéō, - think – (so) think differently after; quote - a turning point in one's life, a call to abandon former ways and embrace a new life in Christ.. particularly significant in the context of the early church, where converts often came from pagan backgrounds and needed to renounce their previous beliefs and practices.]

     21 “Woe to you, Chorazin, woe to you, Bethsaida, for if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes! 22 And I tell you, it will be more tolerable on the ‘day’ of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you. 23 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to hades (state of unseen. gone). For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 But I tell you that it will be - more - bearable - on the day of judgment {the “8th” millennium**} for the land of Sodom than for you. 25 Then Jesus prayed, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have HIDDEN these things from the {so called} wise and understanding and revealed them to little children {and ‘foolish’ of the world}. 26 Yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. 27 All [ - the word “things” is inserted, but instead should read “all” - pas - every, the whole, entire, all] have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son if not the Father, and no one knows the Father if not the Son, and whoever the Son chooses to reveal him to. 28 Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden! And I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I’m gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For - my - yoke is easy, and my burden is - light.” {Not heavy.}

     **The 8th ‘day’ - In the beginning.. Father, then only straight out from God one, the Son, so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” creation and humanity. …Created angels.. and waited, waited.. the universe came about as a big bang (of “light” and “word”/vibration, God spoke it} into as it is, but like a clock not yet running - then - it was set in motion. No option to stray in Eden would be creation as an ant farm, so things are being let to run their course. Preflood was hands off, first proof - they await resurrection into GWT “aionion kolasis” eonian korrection, age of correction (2nd half of Jesus’ long second advent, full scope version of his so brief first one, but with helpers serving, called reigning. having “crowns of Life”..Mt.25:1-13. Imperfection/entropy, this slow gehenna crucible, running course for six ‘days’/millennia. Then a Sabbath millennia, as rest from enmity/the adversary&co..
