            ☀️ A.M. Galatians 1:1-5

1 - From Paul, an apostle—not appointed by men nor any man, but appointed by Jesus Christ, and by God the Father, who raised him from the dead. 2 And from all the brothers who are with me,

     To the believers of Galatia {& all of us}

3 Grace to you! And peace from God our Father. And from the Lord Jesus, 4 who gave himself for our sins [hamartia - sin, failure, missing the mark] {imperfection/entropy} in order to deliver us from this present evil [ponéros - wicked, bad, malicious, hurtful] age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5 to whom is the glory forever. Amen.

            🌙 P.M. LUKE 17:20-37

20 - Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come. He said to them, “The kingdom of God doesn’t come with observation” [paratḗrēsis - watching like a guard, with close scrutiny - only used in this verse, Lk.17:20]. {Doesn’t come with definite parameters? So not easily observed.. Is more like the wind..and tides?}

     21 “Nor do they say, ‘here it is! or there it is!’ for look! the kingdom of God is [entos - within, inside, among] you.” {When it is in us, then it is among us?}

     22 And to his disciples he said, “The days are coming when you will wish to see one of these days of the Son of Man, but you won’t. 23 And they’ll say to you, ‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ But don’t listen to, nor follow them. 24 For in the same way as lightning flashes - and lights up the starry sky from one side of heaven to the other - so will the Son of Man be in that day.

     25 But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. 26 As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be then. 27 They were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, until the day came when Noah went into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them.” {Dn.12:11-12 wiTh Lk.19:41,44 aNd 1Cor.3:16?}

     28 “And as it was in the days of Lot. They were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29 Then, on the same day, when Lot came out of Sodom, fire and sulfur rained from above and destroyed them.” (Mt.13:30, earthly.)

     30 “And so will it be on the day, when the Son of Man is revealed. 31 On that day, let the one who is on the housetop, with his goods in the house, not come down to take his goods with him, and likewise let the one who is in the field not turn back. [70 CE. And later(?) Dn.12:11-12, Rev.2:10]. 32 Remember Lot's wife.

     33 Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, but whoever lets loose his life will keep it. 34 I tell you - in that night - there will be two in one bed. One will be taken and the other left. 35 There will be two women grinding together. One will be taken and the other left.” {Mt.13:30} 37 And they asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said, “Where there’s a dead body, there the vultures will feed.” {And where there’s a fallen away house, nation, etc?}
