04-29 - 1Tim-6 Mt-24

N.Testament & Prophecy Advanced CU Study, verses paraphrased  [ ] references { } thots

 • 1 Timothy 6:1-8  Matthew 24:29-35

            ☀️ 1 Timothy 6:1-8

1 - Let all who owe as bondservants regard the mister (of the loan of land or money) as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be accused. {Today employees.} 2 Those who have believing misters mustn’t be disrespectful on the ground that they’re brothers. They should serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these things, Timothy. 3 If anyone teaches what doesn’t agree with the words of our Lord Jesus and with the teaching that accords with godliness, 4 they are puffed up with conceit and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy craving for controversy and quarrels about words. Which produce envy, division, abusive speaking, evil accusations. 5 A d cause constant friction among those who are admixtured of mind and destitute of the truth, imagining that the way is a means of gain [porismΓ³s - from poros - a way, means (route) that brings gain or profit]. {And anything centered on self somehow?} 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.


            πŸŒ™ Matthew 24:29-35

(Jesus continues.) 29 - “Immediately after those days of tribulation” {the forty-five days of Daniel? Dn.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 and 1Cor.3:16} “the sun will darken, and the moon won’t give its light. The stars will fall and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. {Shaken, in Revelation it adds “the stars ..like figs blown by a strong wind” {Rev.16:14-15-16 -> Is.24:20/Rev.10:4.}

     30 Then, will appear the sign [sΓ©meion - token, something man cannot replicate, miracle, sign, indication] “of the Son of Man in the heavens, and all the tribes of earth will mourn {mortal survivors} when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with great power and glory.

     31 And he will send his angels out with a loud trumpet sounding, and they’ll gather his elect from the four directions, from one end under the heavens to the other. {Mt.25:1-13(10), Zech.14:4}

     32 So consider the lesson from the fig tree. As soon as its branch is tender and puts out its leaves, you know summer’s near. 33 So also, when you see all these things, you know he’s near, at the very door. 34 Truly, I tell you, that generation will not have passed until all these things (the chapter) take place. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away. But my words will not pass away.”

      Paul’s 1st Letter To Timothy

1 - Let all who owe as bondservants regard the mister (of the loan of land or money) as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be accused. {Today employees.} 2 Those who have believing misters mustn’t be disrespectful on the ground that they are brothers. They should serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these things, Timothy. 3 If anyone teaches differently what doesn’t agree with the words of our Lord Jesus and with the teaching that accords with godliness, 4 they are puffed up with conceit and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy craving for controversy and quarrels about words. Which produce envy, division, abusive speaking, evil accusations, 5 and constant friction among those who are corrupt in mind and destitute of the truth, imagining that the way is a means of gain [porismΓ³s - from poros - a way, means (route) that brings gain or profit] {centered upon self}. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.

Ephesians 6 4-9

 a paraphrased ‘enter the story’

 πŸƒπŸ•Š️  reading & study  πŸ•Š️πŸƒ

04/04 ~ From New Testament Letters

   (In the Order Believed Written)

    Paul’s Letter To The Ephesians

4 - Fathers, don’t be the kind of parent your children will hate and be angry toward! But do bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

     5 Bondservants [working off a borrowing of money or land usage] obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, 6 not as a people pleaser, in phoniness, but as true servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, 7 rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, 8 knowing that whatever good anyone does, this they will receive back from the Lord, whether one is a bondservant or is free. 9 And misters, do the same to them, don’t be threatening and intimidating, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and with him there is no partiality {Paul remember is establishing and building up churches/groups of brother and sister believers who understand the Truth, the exceedingly good news, and can pass it along. And by embracing righteousness, genuineness and (imo) logic - aka God’s Spirit/Presence - will fare well and endure.}
