 • 1 Peter 3:7-14  John 14:12-21

            ☀️ A.M. 1 Peter 3:7-14

7 - ..And husbands, live with your wives, not forgetting {or taking advantage because} she is physically weaker. Keep in mind that she is a joint heir with you to the grace of life, lest your prayers be hindered.

     8 Finally, all of you, hold onto unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, tender hearts, and humble spirits. 9 Don’t repay abuse for abuse nor insult for insult. But on the contrary! Bless. For to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.

     10 For “Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let them keep their tongue from evil and their lips from speaking guile! 11 Let them turn away from evil and do good. Let them seek peace - and pursue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayers. But the countenance of the Lord is against those who DO evil.” {..If we don’t seek peace, we do evil?}

     13 Now who is there to harm you if you’re zealous for what is good? 14 But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them. Nor be troubled.

            🌙 P.M. John 14:12-21

Jesus, to his disciples, 12 - “Truly, I tell you, whoever believes in me will also do the works I do. And greater works than these they’ll do, because I’m going to the Father.” {Greater works, further reach, and don’t forget how wide a reach during his long second advent.}

     13 “Whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so - the Father may be glorified - in the Son. 14 If you ask me anything in my name [onomo - name, reputation, cause] I will do it.

     15 If you love me, you’ll keep my commandments/instructions/sayings. 16 And I’ll ask the Father, and he’ll give you another help [paráklētos - from pará - from close-beside, and kaléō - make the call, properly, a legal advocate who makes the right judgment-call because close enough to the situation, someone giving evidence that stands up in court] to be with you forever, 17 even the Spirit {Presence (with us)} of Truth {the Father, who is Life}, whom the world can’t receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. {Father and Son are so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” all creation and humanity.}

     18 “I won’t leave you as orphans, but will come to you.” {At the end of that age, at the coming Pentecost, and later, as fully present at the culmination of history, this unavoidable, all important contrast, a slow gehenna crucible, entropy/imperfection.}

     19 “Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you’ll see me. Because I live, you’ll live also. 20 In that day you’ll know that I’m in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 21 Whoever has my commandments, and keeps them, are those who love me. And those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and I will {continue to} make myself known to them.”
