09-15 - LUKE 12:1-12

a paraphrased ‘enter the story’

    🕊️reading & study 🕊️

1 - Meanwhile, so many had gathered, they were trampling one another, he began, first, to say to his disciples, “Beware the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy [hypokrisḗs - literally - acting under a mask]. 2 Nothing is covered up that won’t be revealed, or hidden that won’t be known. 3 Therefore whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms will be as proclaimed from rooftops. 4 I tell you, my friends, don’t fear those who kill the body, (leaders) and after that have nothing more they can do. 5 But I will warn you whom to fear (you pharisees) fear he who, after the destruction/ruin, has authority to cast into Gehenna [from gay - valley, and Hinnom - Gehenna] {armageddon, first one was coming in 70 CE}. Yes, I tell you, fear him! {Evildoers!] 6 BecauSe, are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not oNe of them is forgotten before God! 7 Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not!! You are of more value than many sparrows.

    8 And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man will acknowledge before the angels of God, 9 but the one who denies me before men, will be denied before the angels of God. (Does noT say ‘forever and ever’.) 10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but the one blaspheming against the Holy Spirit(/Presence) of God is not forgiven. {How can they be while hating God enough to virulently insult him?} 11 Then when they bring you before the councils, the rulers and authorities, don’t be anxious about how you should defend yourself or what you should say, 12 for the Holy Spirit(/Presence of God) will guide you in that very hour what you should say.”
