☀️ A.M. 2 Peter 3:8-18
8 - But don’t overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. {This logically doesn’t mean every day is code for a millennium.. BUT! I do think our heavenly Father/Creator has fixed 6 millennia for things to run course. No option to stray in Eden and we’d be an ant farm?! After this unavoidable (entropic) contrast has run its course, then a Sabbath millennium as a rest from evil and enmity, followed by “the last great day” an “8th day” Rev.20, but which is described like the crests of waves and not much of the in between. So an outline, the week plus one. A second outline, within this first one is the ancient Spring and Fall holy days, as the first (brief) and the second (long) advent of Jesus - Leviticus chapter 23.}
9 The Lord isn’t slow to fulfill his promise as some might think of slowness, but he is patient, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. [Not willing - boulomai - will, wish, desire, intend.] {Can anYthing thwart God’s will/intent?!} 10 But the - day - of the LORD will come {surreptitiously} like a thief, in the which the heavens will pass with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be revealed. [The three mentions of lake of fire, are at huge fiery events. The last one is in Revelation, 21, verses 1-5, the fiery regenesis. The first is at armageddon battle. Prophecy descriptions are sometimes described as their full effects, their first and last effects in a a sort of swirl. Aka, here, and “the seals”.]
11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be, living lives of truth, goodness and godliness, 12 while expectantly waiting for the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! [Rev.21:1-5] 13 But according to his promise! We are waiting for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness will be at home. {And rule..}
14 Therefore, beloved, since you’re waiting for these {the world’s armageddon.. and the much later regenesis when God says “behold! I make all new!” And after which, “the bear will graze with the cow, and the lion will eat straw like the ox” Isaiah 11:7} be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish - and at peace. 15 And think of the patience of our LORD as salvation [soteria - welfare, deliverance, preservation, prosperity, salvation, safety]. This is just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him, 16 as he writes in his letters, when he writes of these matters, in which there are some things hard to understand, which the unknowing and unstable twist {get confused} to their own ruin, as they do the other Scriptures. 17 You therefore, beloved, knowing all this beforehand, take care that you’re not carried away with the error of lawless people. And lose your own stability. 18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
🌙 P.M. Matthew 27:1-10
1 - When morning came, the leaders of the people - all the chief priests and elders - took counsel against Jesus to have him put to death. 2 They bound him and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate the governor.
3 Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood!” They said, “What do we care? What is it to us?” 5 So he threw down the pieces of silver into the temple, and then he left and went out and hanged himself.
6 And the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, “It’s not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it’s blood money.” 7 So they took further counsel and bought with them the potter's field as a burial place for strangers. 8 Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this very day. 9 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet Jeremiah, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of he on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, 10 and they gave them for the potter's field” as the prophecy stated.
