☀️ Romans 11:7-11
7 - What then? Israel failed to achieve what it was seeking. A chosen few obtained it, but the rest were hardened [póroó - hardened, made callous, rendered insensitive] 8 as it’s written, “God gave [didómi - gave, granted] them a spirit of stupor, eyes not seeing and ears not hearing, down to this very day.” 9 And David said, “Let be, their table for a snare and a trap, for a stumbling block and a retribution. 10 Let their eyes be darkened so they do not see, their backs be bent.” {With heavy burden, servitude.. their table, cause and effect. Israel as microcosm, world as macro. But God takes responsibility. And so Father and Son - who said, “Let us make mankind in our image” able to think and reason - they suffer most of all. Surely, no option to stray in Eden, would’ve been a mere ant farm. We have merely scraped the surface of the glories of God’s wonderful creation! See Isaiah 11:7 just to start, and to say nothing of a huge beautiful and glorious family ..of all, Greek word pas - all, every, the whole, usually translated “all things”. God being Life itself, lives through everything, so suffers all atrocities. He also “is perfect” so to stray in thought, word or deed in any tiny way, is to become imperfect. Opposite to Life. It’s also an abyss of potential don’t you think? Already proven.. Makes sense of the Revelation chapter nine abyss.. natural sense ..which is what everything is. God’s voice is Logic. Root word Logos. I hope I don’t do anything or not do anything to miss that door to serving called reigning during long second advent. Surely(?!) a full scope version of His first so brief one. My one RuLe, Love God. Hope I’m not kidding myself in any way. He once told me when you think you’ve submitted, given and surrendered down to the very floor of your being.. that’s when to start pulling up floorboards. Metaphor of course. Be a “whole burnt offering “ on his altar! Burnt by a slow gehenna that’s “not put out” - entropy/imperfection. This one and done unavoidable, all important contrast. The dis-ease as part of the cure. And immunity.. T.H.I total herd immunity. How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd keep paradise/perfection intact? Original point being GOD “hardens whom he will”. It says plainly God blinded Israel, microcosm, type, shadow cast of the whole, and has blinded mankind, all humanity, every one of us, macrocosm. Satan despises Israel. And Christianity. And any civilization but run by him, especially Western. Built on the iron and bronze of Daniel 2 and 7:7,19 (Roman and Greek). And also of course upon more or less a Christian aNd Judeo-Christian foundation. In large part “fallen away” now because our, the world’s “false prophet” has “seated man(kind) in the temple as god”/highest power.. A “strong delusion”. This prophet also enabled Rev.13:13.. And has other “miracles to mislead” up its sleeve. There’s a subtle key to 13:13, yes?}
11 So I (Paul) ask! Did they (Israel) stumble in order to perish [piptó - fall, fail, degrade, perish]? Certainly noT! Rather, through their trespass salvation/rescue has come to the nations!
🌙 John 6:14-21
14 - When the people saw the miracle that Jesus had done, they said to one another, “This must be the Prophet who’s to come into the world!”
15 Jesus saw they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, so he went away to the mountain alone. 16 And when it was evening, his disciples went down to the sea 17 and got into a boat. They started back across to Capernaum, as it was now dark, and Jesus hadn’t come back yet.
18 The lake became rough because a strong wind was blowing. 19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw a strange thing and were affrighted. But it was Jesus walking on the water toward them. 20 He called out, “It’s me! Don’t be afraid!” 21 Then they were happy and took him on board, and immediately the boat came to land at Capernaum, to where they had been going.
