☀️ A.M. 2 Thessalonians 2:11-3:5
11 - Therefore God sends [pempó - to send, transmit, dispatch, especially on a temporary errand] {through the adversary/accelerator} a strong delusion [energeia plané] that they would believe what is false. {It was biG bang into the universe as is. There’s two top strong delusions. A sort of king and priest collusion? So to speak..} 12 In order that should be judged {earthLy judgment falling upon} all the not believing the truth, but approve of what is wrong {false} [adikia: injustice, unrighteousness, wrongdoing]. {I still think most judgment is cause and effect, consequences. results.}
13 We however always give thanks to God for you brethren! Beloved of the LORD! For HE has chosen you from the beginning unto salvation/safety/rescue {and well being} in santification, which is done by the Spirit and Truth. [Sanctification is a being set apart for God’s purpose, and undergoing the process of God transforming us to be more like Jesus. Jesus prayed “Sanctify them by the truth. Your word is truth.] {📜🍞 ♱🍷🕊️}
14 To this he has called you. Called by our (good news) gospel, to wit, the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus!
15 So then, stand firm and hold to the traditions that we taught you, either by our spoken word or written by letter. 16 And may our Lord Jesus himself, and God our Father, who is loving us and giving us an enduring {never fading} comfort, and who by grace, gives us the good hope [elpis - expectation]. 17 May he comfort your hearts and make them steadfast in every good work and word.
3:1 - Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the message of the LORD may run its course speedily and be honored, as has happened among you! 2 And that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men. For not all have faith! 3 But the LORD is faithful. He will establish you, and guard you against the evil one. 4 And we have confidence in the Lord Jesus about you, that you are doing and will do the things the gospel has instructed. 5 And may the LORD direct your hearts to the love of God, and into the faithfulness and steadfastness of Christ Jesus. ⛲️
🌙 P.M. LUKE 15:11-20
11 - Jesus told a parable, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the inheritance that’s coming to me.’ So the father did so, 13 and not many days later, the young son gathered all he had, and took a journey into a far land. And while he was there, he wasted everything in reckless living.
14 And when he had spent it all, a severe famine arose in the land, and he began to be hungry. 15 So he hired himself out to one of the farmers of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. 16 And he was looking with hunger at the pods the pigs were eating. For no one gave him anything to eat.
17 Then he came to himself, and he thought, “How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough food to eat!? And here I perish with hunger! 18 I will go back to my father, and I’ll say to him, ‘Father, I’ve sinned against heaven and against you, 19 and I’m no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.’” 20 And so he journeyed home to his father.
And while he was still a distance away, his father saw him coming, and his heart swelled and overflowed! And he ran to meet him and embraced him and kissed him!”
{Where’s the angry Father who’s fiery rage has to be appeased by a blood sacrifice? Perhaps we’ve misread the atonement. Atonement it is! But what is really appeased? Has to be appeased? Strong enough for all. Cannot miss the mark, because God “is Perfect”. Mt.5:48. ..The Father was always watching for his wandering, wayward son.}
