8Th ‘Day’ Study, verses R paraphrased [ref] {thots}
1John 1:1-4 Luke 8:26-39
☀️ A.M. 1John 1:1-4
1 John, 2 John and 3 John are letters written by the disciple/apostle John, who also wrote the “Gospel According to John” and the Book of (the) Revelation (vision). He’s the only one of the twelve who lived to an old age, which is when he wrote these letters and received the revelation vision.
1Jn.1:1 - That which was from the beginning, which we (apostles) have heard, which we saw with our eyes, and looked upon and have touched with our hands. [After resurrection Jesus said “touch me and see that I have flesh and bones”.] The things concerning the word of life. 2 For the life was made visible [phaneróō - from phṓs - light – properly, illumine, make manifest(visible)]. And we saw it, and testify of it, and proclaim it to you. That’s the life which was with the Father and was made known to us. 3 That which we have seen and heard we declare to you! So that you too may have friendship with God along with us. For indeed our friendship [koinónia] - {association, mutual benefiting, visiting, communion, friendship} is with the Father and with his Son Jesus. 4 And I am writing these things so the joy we all have may be complete and full.
🌙 P.M. LUKE 8:26-39
26 - After the storm, they arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite shore from Galilee. 27 When Jesus stepped out onto land, there met him a man from the city who had many demons. For a long time he hadn’t lived in a house, but lived among the tombs, and he wore no clothing. 28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, saying in a loud voice, “What have you to do with me! Jesus, you son of the Most High God! I beg of you! Don’t torment me!” 29 For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and he was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles. But he would break the bonds and be driven by his demons into the wilderness.
30 Jesus then asked him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” for it was many demons which had entered into him. 31 And they begged him not to order them into the abyss.
32 A large herd of pigs were feeding on a nearby hillside, so they begged him to let them enter the pigs. And so he let them, 33 and the demons came rushing out of the man and into the pigs, and the herd ran down the steep bank and into the lake and were drowned.
34 Now when the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran and told everyone in the countryside and in the city. 35 So people went out to see what had happened, and when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone, sitting at his feet, clothed and in his right mind. And it made them afraid! 36 And those who saw what had happened told everyone else, all that had happened. 37 Then the people asked Jesus to leave, for they were under great fear.
So he got into the boat and returned to the other side. 38 The man from whom the demons had gone had wanted to go with him, but Jesus said, 39 “Go on home, and tell everyone how much God has done for you.” And so he went on his way, and told throughout the whole region what Jesus had done for him.
