8TH ‘DAY’ CU Journal, New Testament In A Year
Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}
༺☀️༻ Galatians 6:9-18
9 - Let us not grow weary and give up on doing good, for we’ll reap in due season! 10 As we have opportunity, we should do good to all. Especially, to those who are of the household of faith. {Our currently closest brothers and sisters.}
11 See with what large letters I’m writing to you with my own hand. (Paul had developed eye trouble.) 12 It is those who want to show themselves off as making a good show who would force you to be circumcised. {Or whatever requirement(s) they demand}. And this is only in order that they won’t be criticized for the cross of Christ. {Hebrew believers wanting friendship and approval from their world, of their day and place. Today, a personal conviction, or preference, about when to keep Sabbath, for example, is well and good, but is not a commandment.} 13 For even those who are circumcised don’t themselves keep the law, but they want to have you circumcised that they may boast in you. {Believers can be misled by wanting followers of themselves? Setting self up as an example and leader?} 14 But I don’t want to boast in anything, except in the cross {salvation, rescue} of our Lord Jesus, the Christ [christos - anointed one].
And by him I’ve been crucified to the world. And the world has been crucified to me. 15 Circumcision {or whatever requirement} doesn’t matter. Whether you are circumcised or not circumcised, makes no difference. What matters is being a new creation! [Romans 14:5,6]
16 And for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them! And upon the Israel {whole household} of God. {Yes we are “grafted into Israel”. There “is no longer hebrew or greek, male or female (in spiritual status). The world’s nation Israel is still exactly in God’s plan as he has designed during this course through imperfection/entropy. Which is unavoidable? Unless creation’s to be an ant farm? And, Israel figures much in biblical prophecy, as does the u.s. but in different roles. The U.S. plays two roles, two beginnings, Rev.12:14(white hat) and $ity of babble (free enterprise highjacked and gone “harlot”/pornea) locale now gone to all 7hills/continents. And Rev.13:13 pinpointed an office, which event was another beginning..) Also involved of course, World politics, the many headed geopolitical beaSt, Rev.17:12,16-18. But! The Revelation vision has been, in very large part, veiled due to its riddles! And lake of fire unable to be deciphered early on..}
17 And from now on let no one cause me (Paul) any trouble. For I bear on my body, the scars of having served Jesus.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you, brothers and sisters. Amen.
༺☾π€༻ MARK 12:35-44
35 - As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he said, “How can the scribes say that Messiah (Greek Christ) is the son of David? 36 When David, by the Holy Spirit, said, ‘The LORD said to my Lord, sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet.’ 37 How can David call him Lord if he’s his son and descendant?”
The people were happy to listen to Jesus. {The LORD said to my Lord.. as in 1Cor.15:27 and 28 where eveRy all is “all” - greek word pas. So what is actually repeated three times in verse 27?}
38 And he said, “Be wary of the scribes. For they like to walk around in long robes, to be greeted in the marketplaces, 39 and to have the best seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at feasts. 40 Yet they devour widows' houses! And as a pretense make long prayers. They’ll receive the greater judgment.”
41 Later, he was sitting a short way from the treasury (box) and was watching the people put money in. Many wealthy people put in many silver coins. 42 But then a poor widow came in who put in two small copper coins.
43 So he called his disciples over and said to them, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than anyone else. 44 For they have put in out of their abundance. But she out of her poverty, has put in all she had.”
Jesus “will draw all” Jn.12:32.
