08/24 - GospeL Verses
34 - Jesus called to him the crowd of people, to come and listen, and he told them, “If anyone will follow me, let them deny their self, take up their cross, and follow after me. 35 For whoever will save their life will ruin it, but whoever lets loose of their life for my sake and the gospel's sake, will save it.
36 For what does it profit a person to gain the whole world and forfeit their soul?” [Psyxḗ - from psyxō - to breathe, blow, which is the root of the English words psyche and psychology – soul/psyche, a person's distinct identity, unique personhood and individual personality.] {God is Life.. he breathed into Adam and he became a living soul.”}
37 “For what can a person give in return for their soul/being? 38 And whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this unfaithful and wrong thinking generation, then also will the Son of man be ashamed of them when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels. 9:1 - Truly, I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they have seen the kingdom of God having come with power. [Dýnamis - from dýnamai, energy, ability, force. {Pentecost? but not fully come.. Or 70 CE of the big change? The ‘smaller’ scope apocalypse and armageddon? And again, not fully come. As prophecy patterns repeat? Some claimed he didn’t come in the flesh/literally for his first (so brief) advent. ..The idea was said to be anti- Christ.}
