Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Luke 15:11-20

11 - Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.’ So he divided his property between them. 13 And not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered everything in reckless living. 14 And when he had spent all, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. 16 And it came about that he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him a thing. 17 Then he came to himself and said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough food? 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 before you, 19 and I’m no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.’ 20 And he went home to his father. And then while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. His heart swelled, and he ran and embraced his son and kissed him!” (Where’s the angry Father who has to be appeased by sacrifice? Perhaps we’ve misread the atonement. Atonement it is! But what is really appeased? For all. Strong enough for all. Cannot miss the mark.)

                ~ 2 Thessalonians 2:11-3:5 ~

11 - Therefore God sends [pempó - send, transmit, permit to go, put forth - occurred seventy nine times, never translated permitted, Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance includes “thrust in”] (let happen(?) a strong delusion, that they would believe what is false. (Is there a stronger delusion than creation just happened?) 12 In order for judgment of the not believing the truth, but thought well of the unrighteousness/injustice [adikia - injustice, unrighteousness, from A - not, and dike - justice, rightness (thought well of the false, the not right)].

     13 We however should always give thanks to God for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, who has chosen you from the beginning [arché - beginning, origin] for salvation by sanctification of the Spirit(/Presence of God) and belief in the truth. 14 To this he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus.

     15 So then, stand firm and hold to the traditions that you were taught by us, either by our spoken word or by our letter. 16 And may our Lord Jesus himself, and God our Father, who is loving us and giving us enduring comfort and the good hope [elpis - expectation] by grace. 17 May he comfort your hearts and make them steadfast in every good work and word.

     3 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word 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 about you, that you are doing and will do the things we have instructed. 5 And may the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.

GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 12:14-21

14 - But! The Pharisees went out and were plotting how they might kill Jesus. 15 Aware of this, Jesus went away from there, and a large crowd followed after him, and he healed everyone who was ill among them. 16 He told them not to tell others about him. 17 This fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah - 18 “Here is my servant I have chosen, the one I love, and in whom I delight. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the nations. 19 He won’t quarrel nor cry out, and they will not hear his voice in the streets. 20 He will not break a crushed reed and he will not snuff out a barely lit wick, but will lead justice to victory. 21 In his name the nations will put their hope [elpizo - expectation].” (In him, the people will put their hope and their expectation.)

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                  ~ Romans 8:17-25 ~

17 - Now if we are God’s children, then we are his heirs, and we are co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings (troubles, persecutions, insults, and some much more) in order that we may also share in his glory. (Note, “sharing his glory” - able to heal, etc, has to be after entering the ‘door’ into “the” millennium, Mt.25:1-13, and before “behold! I make all new”. 18 I (Paul) consider that our present sufferings and troubles are not at all comparable with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager anticipation for the coming to light of the children of God. 20 For the creation (too) was subjected to futility, corruption, fading, not by its own will, but by the choice of the one who subjected it, in expectation 21 — that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay — and brought into the freedom [eleutheria - liberty, freedom] and glory [doxa - praise, honor, glory] of the children of God. 22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as if in the pains of childbirth from the beginning right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit (“love, joy, peace” etc.) groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies [apolutrósis - a release effected by payment of ransom]. 24 Indeed it is in this expectation that we are saved. But expectation that is seen is not expectation at all. Because who is expecting what has already arrived? 25 But if we expect what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

From the Prophets - Amos

     1:1 The words of Amos, a shepherd —the vision he saw concerning Israel two years before the earthquake..

Damascus, Gaza, Tyre, Edom, Ammon, Moab …and Judah..

   ..sold the innocent for silver .. you trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the ground and deny justice to the oppressed.. 2:14 The swift will not escape, the strong will not muster their strength, and the warrior will not save his life. 15 The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and the horseman will not save his life. 16 Even the bravest warriors will flee.. 3:6 When a trumpet sounds.. 7 Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets. ..11 An enemy will overrun your land, pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses ..15 the mansions will be demolished..

    4:1 .. who oppress the poor and crush the needy.. 6 lack of bread in every town.. 11 yet you have not returned to me, declares the Lord. 12 ..prepare to meet your God. 13 He who forms the mountains,�    who creates the wind,�    and who reveals his thoughts to mankind, who turns dawn to darkness, and treads on the heights of the earth — the Lord God Almighty is his name.

5:9  With a blinding flash he destroys the stronghold and brings the fortified city to ruin..

11 You levy a straw tax on the poor and impose a tax on their grain. Therefore, though you have built stone mansions, you will not live in them; though you have planted lush vineyards, you will not drink their wine. 12 ..There are those who oppress the innocent and take bribes and deprive the poor of justice in the courts. 13  Therefore the prudent keep quiet in such times, for the times are evil. 15 Hate evil, love good; maintain justice in the courts. Perhaps the Lord God Almighty will have mercy..

    6:11 ..he will smash the great house into pieces and the small house into bits. 14 Amos answered Amaziah, “I was neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees. 15 But the Lord took me from tending the flock and said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’ 16 Now then, hear the word of the Lord. You say, ‘Do not prophesy.. and stop preaching against the descendants of Isaac.’

17 Therefore this is what the Lord says, ‘Israel will surely go into exile, away from their native land’..”

     8:1 This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me, a basket of ripe fruit. 2 “What do you see, Amos?” he asked. “A basket of ripe fruit,” I answered. 8 Will not the land tremble for this, and all who live in it mourn? .. 9 “In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord,

“I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight. 11 “The days are coming,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “when I will send a famine through the land — not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord. 12 People will stagger..

     9:11 “In that day I will restore David’s fallen shelter — I will repair its broken walls and its ruins — and will rebuild it as it used to be.. 13 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when the reaper will be overtaken by the plowman and the planter by the one treading grapes. New wine will drip from the mountains and flow from all the hills, 14 and I will bring my people Israel back from exile. (We are all Israel, when the scales fall from our eyes and we believe, we are “grafted into Israel” and Israel and Jerusalem will be God’s capitol.) They will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit. 15 I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them..”
