 • Philemon 1:1-16  Matthew 18:21-35

            ☀️ Philemon 1:1-16

1 - Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,

     To Philemon our beloved fellow worker 2 and Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier, and the church that meets in your house:

     3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father! And the Lord Jesus Christ! 4 I am always thankful to God for you and I remember you in my prayers. 5 For I hear of the faith you have toward the Lord Jesus, and your love for all the brothers and sisters. 6 I pray that the sharing of your faith may be effective, and full, having knowledge of every good thing that’s in us, for the sake of Christ. 7 For I have felt much joy and comfort because the hearts of the saints (believers) have been refreshed through you.

     8 Yet also I’m asking a great favor of you. 9 I, Paul, now an old man and also a prisoner for Christ Jesus, 10 I appeal to you concerning Onesimus, who I became like a father to in my imprisonment.

     11 Formerly he wasn’t much help to you, but now indeed he is helpful to you and to me. 12 I’m sending him back to you. But from my heart, 13 I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might help me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel. 14 But I wouldn’t want to do so without your consent, and only if it would be agreeable to you. 15 It might even be that’s why he was away, that you might have him back, but as a brother, forever! 16 No longer as indentured {a money or land borrowing system} but now as a beloved brother, especially to me. And how much more to you, both naturally and in the Lord..

            🌙 Matthew 18:21-35

21 - Then Peter came up and asked Jesus, “Lord, how many times, if my brother sins against me, should I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22 Jesus said, “I don’t say seven times, but seventy-seven times!

     23 For the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wished to settle his accounts with his (bond) servants. 24 And when he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 And since he couldn’t pay, he ordered his indenture to be sold, with his wife and children and all he had, and payment to be made. 26 So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me! And I’ll pay you everything.’

     27 And out of pity, the master of that servant released him and even forgave him the whole debt. 28 But later, that same servant went out, and when he saw one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, he seized him, and was throttling him, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’ 29 And his fellow servant {his neighbor/fellow person} fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I’ll pay you.’ 30 But he refused and went and had him put in prison until he should pay all the debt.

     31 When his fellow servants saw it, they were greatly distressed, and reported it to the master/mister. 32 Then the master summoned the man and said, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had with you?’ 34 And in anger he was delivered to the jailers {cause and effects, trials} untiL he should pay all his debt. 35 So also from my heavenly Father will it be with each one of you, if you don’t genuinely forgive your brother or sister.”

☀️ 10 - Anyone you forgive, I forgive also! As a matter of fact, if I’ve forgiven anything, it’s been in Jesus, and for your sake. 11 This is so we would not be outwitted by Satan, for we’re not uninformed of his tricks and designs.

     12 When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord, 13 my spirit was not at rest because I didn’t find my brother Titus there. So I left and went on to Macedonia.

     14 And thanks be to God, who - in Christ - always leads us in triumphal procession {Rev.6:2🗝️} and then through us, spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. 15 For we are the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved, and among those who are {still} perishing. 16 To one a fragrance of death to death {ruin to ruin, failure to failure, natural entropy} to the other, a fragrance of life to life. {The “kingdom” and the sense of life to come.. Which is always coming, but currently we are old wine skins.}

     Who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we’re not, like so many, peddlers {making a profit} of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God. And in the sight of [katenanti - before, in the presence of] God, our speaking is in Christ.

20 - In the morning when they went back by the fig tree that Jesus had cursed, they saw it had withered away right down to its roots. 21 And Peter remembering said, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered.” 22 And Jesus told the disciples, “Have faith in God. 23 For truly, I say to you, if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and don’t doubt in your heart, what you say will come to pass, it will be done for you. 24 Therefore I say, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe you receive it, and you shall. 25 But whenever you pray, if you have something against someone, forgive them, so your Father who is in heaven may forgive you! Forgive your trespasses [paraptóma - a false step, trespass, from parapiptó - to fall in, into or away, to fail; a lapse (deviation) from the truth, an error, slip up, wrong doing that (even) can be unconscious and non-deliberate].”

30 - “Give to everyone who asks from you, and if someone takes away your goods don’t demand them back. 31 Treat others how you want others to treat you. 32 If you love only those who love you, of what benefit to you {your spirit} is that? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners [‘hamartians’ - {the still} missing the mark] do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive back, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive back from them. 35 But love your enemies! Do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. And your reward will be great, and you will be sons and daughters of the Most High. For he is kind to the ungrateful and to the evil [poneros - wicked, bad, malicious {even} evil]. 36 Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.” {He made the psyche.. all will come out in the wash.}

     37 Don’t judge [krinó - judge, decide, determine, try, condemn {accuse? label?] others, and you won’t be judged. {Accused, slandered, labeled.} “Don’t condemn others, and you won’t be condemned. If you forgive others” {their missing the mark}, “you’ll be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you, in good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will it be given to you! For with the measure you use {for Good or for notGood} so shall it be measured back to you.”

2 Corinthians 2 1-9

 12/19 ~ From New Testament Letters

  🕊️ (In the Order Believed Written)

1 - I didn’t want to make another painful visit. 2 For if I cause you pain, who then is there to make me happy but the one I pained? 3 And I wrote as I did to you, lest when I was there, I should have sorrow over those from whom I ought to have joy, trusting all of you to have the same joy that I have. 4 For when I wrote to you, it was out of much affliction and anguish of heart, and even with tears. Not to cause you pain, but to let you know of the abundant love I have for you.

     5 Now if anyone has caused pain, they have caused it - not to me, except in some measure, and not to put it too severely - but to all of you! 6 Now for that one, the disapproval and censure by the majority is enough (he had been sleeping with his father’s wife) 7 so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive distress. 8 So I beg you to reaffirm your love and acceptance for him. 9 For this is why I wrote, to find out if you are able to stay and walk in the way.

21 - Then Peter came up to Jesus and said, “Lord, how often if my brother sins against me, should I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22 Jesus answered, “I don’t say seven times, but seventy-seven times. 23 The kingdom of heaven (the heavenly kingdom) can be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. 24 When he began to settle, one person was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 And since he couldn’t pay, he ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment be made. 26 So the servant fell on his knees, saying, ‘Have patience with me!

                  ~ Philemon 1:1-16 ~

1 -  [From] Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,

     To Philemon our beloved fellow worker 2 and Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church that meets in your house:

     3 Grace to you! And peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus. 4 I thank God always when I remember you in my prayers, 5 and I hear of the love and faith you have toward the Lord and for all the saints. 6 I pray that the sharing of your faith may be fully effective for recognizing every good thing that is in us for the sake of Christ. 7 For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you. 8 Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to insist, 9 yet for love's sake I prefer to appeal to you—I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner for Christ Jesus— 10 I appeal to you for my child in the faith, Onesimus, whose father I became in my imprisonment. 11 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me. (Onesimus was an indentured worker - a system of paying off a debt or loan. But he had run away. Then he ran into Paul and Paul’s party and became a Christian, becoming much more stable and a helpful worker.) 12 I am sending him back to you, though I will miss him a great deal. 13 I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might be of service to me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel, 14 but I preferred to do nothing without your consent. Because if you agree, it will be a gift and you will be blessed for it. 15 Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back later, 16 no longer as a bondservant but more than a bondservant, as a beloved brother. Yes, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in daily affairs and in the Lord.

Never Give In To A Bully

Concerning words.. And debate. One of the surest signs that you are the more accurate in a dialogue is when the other side displays a sort of bullying attitude. Instead of presenting points which support their view, the tactic is to belittle another's view. To intimidate.

Condescension is a close relative to this.

"Be gentle with all.. with a mild spirit.. forgiving one another.. pray for those who despitefully use you.."
