8TH ‘DAY’ CU Journal, New Testament In A Year

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

            ༺☀️༻ 1 Corinthians 2:1-6

1 - As for me (Paul), when I was with you, I didn’t come proclaiming to you the testimony/witness/message of God with lofty speech or {so called, hidden only to the special} wisdom. 2 No, for I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and he crucified.

     3 And I was with you in humility and weakness, 4 my speech and my message were not in great sweeping words of wisdom, but in demonstrations of the Spirit(/Presence of God) and power. 5 So your faith might not rest upon the wisdom of man - but in the power of God.

     6 Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom. {Concerning God’s message and what he is doing? And how? And most importantly why? And insight to the ancient prophecies?} Not in wisdom of the age nor of the rulers {politics} of the day. All of that passes away.

     {Truth is and doesn’t change with the world, which is passing away. If the world holds particular views, those views are extremely likely to be wrong? Unless that world is tightly aligned with God? Who is Life. No amount of wishing, embellishing, or kidding ourselves will change that? We align with God/Truth, not God and truth aligns with us. Whereas the world can put on sheep’s clothing? All persons, groups, nations, ethnicities err and fall short. But God has our highest blueprint, individual and collective!}

            ༺☾𖤓༻ MARK 13:14-18

(Jesus continues answering the disciple’s questions.) 14 -  “And when you see the abomination, the desolation {and we, a final one?} standing where (it) ought not, let the reader understand, then let the/those in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let the one who is on the housetop not go down nor enter their house to take anything {instead of yards, they had their rooftops} 16 and let the one who is in the field not turn back to get their coat. 17 And alas for women who are with child (pregnant, baby in womb) and for those nursing infants in those days! 18 Pray it not happen in winter.”

     {Leading up to the razing of Jerusalem in 70 CE, the Roman standard was hung upon the temple, desolating it. I believe prophecy is fulfilled in widening scopes, and the final desolating abomination will be upon the human temple meant for God’s Spirit/Presence (1Cor.3:16) and is a last days fulfillment of Daniel 12:11-12. The prophecies of Daniel meet up at the culmination of history?

     Jesus’ said “Jerusalem, Jerusalem.. not one stone in you shall remain one atop another, that is not thrown down” Lk.19:41,44. But there’s a space of time (gap) between Jerusalem “TEMPLE, not one stone will be left” (Lk.21:5-6) and CITY “Jerusalem, not one stone will be left on another” AND(?) “the perpetual [tamid - continual, perpetual] (sacrifices) {of prayers, etc?} taken away” [sur - to depart, remove, removed] of DN.12:11-12 (wiTh Lk.19:41,44 & 1Cor.3:16?)

     Prophecy fulfilled from ‘smaller’ to full scope, includes the advents!?)

     Dn.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 & 1Cor.3:16..

and escalating the last “ten days” into most critical, Rev.10:2?

     “What will be the sign of your coming..?”}

Jesus “will draw all” Jn.12:32.
