Hebrews 12:15-24  Mark 4:1-12

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 12:15-24

15 - See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God, so no sort of bitterness will spring up and cause trouble. For by it many can become corrupted. 16 No one should be sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal! 17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he couldn’t, for he found no chance to change the past, though he looked for it with tears. {“The” blessing had been given to another, couldn’t be now taken back.}

     18 But you {we, under the New Testament agreement/contract that is signed in blood - because it has to reach eveRy psyche} you haven’t come to a fiery mountain that can’t be touched for it’s thundering and burning, darkness and gloom, and stormy tempest! 19 With the sound of a trumpet and a voice and words that made the people tremble and ask that no more words be spoken to them. 20 For they couldn’t endure it, “If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.” {Thermonuclear type contagion?} 21 Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that even Moses said, “I am in terrible fear!”

     22 But you! You have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God. To the heavenly Jerusalem, and myriads of angels. 23 To the festal gathering and crowd of the firstborn being enrolled in heaven, and to God judge of all and all the  spirits of the righteous being perfected, 24 and to Jesus, mediator of the new covenant, and the sprinkled blood that speaks a better message than the blood of Abel. {Which that blood cried out to God.. Vengeance/cause and effect. The new - mercy. Apocalypse with Armageddon are mandone. We have his number.. made up of carbon which has six protons, six neutrons and six electrons.}

            🌙 P.M. Mark 4:1-12

1 - Jesus was teaching beside the sea and a very large crowd had gathered around him, so he got into a boat that was anchored there, and he sat down, and the crowd was on the shore. 2 And as usual he was teaching them using parables. 3 “Listen” he said, “a sower went out scattering seed. 4 And as he scattered, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and ate up the seeds. 5 Some other seed fell on rocky ground, where there wasn’t much soil, and it quickly sprang up. 6 But when the sun rose, it dried up and withered away, because it had no roots. 7 Still some other seed fell among thorns and thistles, which choked them out, and so there was no grain. 8 But some other seed fell into good soil. And it grew tall and produced grain, yielding thirtyfold, sixtyfold and even a hundredfold.” 9 And he said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear!”

    10 Later, when they were alone, those around him with the twelve asked him the meaning of the parable. 11 And he said, “To you it’s been given to understand the mystery of the kingdom of God, but for others it’s all in parable, 12 so that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing, they may hear, but not understand, lest ever  [pote - at what time, how long, when] they should turn and be forgiven.’” - [Turn - epistrephó - turn, return, from epi - on, upon, and strephó - to turn, to change; come to myself.] {Verse “lest hearing they hear, or seeing they see” quote is Isaiah 6:9 - and a cross reference to it is -  “BRING OUT a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears, but are deaf” Isaiah 43:8.

     That’s all of us, and considering logic, which root word of, is logos, this continues during “the Last Great Day” extending full scope, which is the way of prophecy, including the advents, 1Tim.4:10, Jn.12:32 & 37.

     ..An “8th ‘day’” a “last great day”/millennium, otherwise when does all of Rev.20 occur? Note: Rev.22 has narrative in it that is spoken outside of the vision.. Shakespeare said “all of life is a stage”. Dan.7:9, “and the Ancient of Days took his seat..” Also later at GWT ‘day’ of Judgment/Discernment/Closure - “BRING OUT a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf” Isaiah 43:8.}

06-20 - From Heb-4 Mt-1

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

Hebrews 4:4-7  Matthew 1:18-25 and ACTS 3:1-26 separately

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 4:4-7

4 - For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day {and millennium} in this way, “And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.” 5 And again in this passage he said “They shall not enter my rest.” 6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience {not following the instructions} 7 again he appoints a certain day, “Today,” later, again saying, through David, in the words already quoted, “Today, if you hear his voice, don’t harden your heart.”

     {Don’t LET our heart be hardened. The face of the wolf (in sheep’s clothing no less!) is accusation. Of our self. Of others. Of that other group over there.. The us and them attitude. But especially the accusations about God. Remember his voice has to speak to all, not just the best among us. But also the worst. Surely pre-flood was hands off. And imperfection is an abyss oF potential.. Death to God isn’t what it is to us. Jesus said - “All those - in the tombs/graves - will hear God’s voice and will come forth.” From where? The graves/tombs. “Some into the resurrection of Life, and some in the aionion kolasis / eonian korrection / imo, age of correction. The rich man and Lazarus parable, and the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22 portray initiaL, inneR conditions - of some - during that ‘day’/age, Jn.5:28-29 and Mt.25:46.}

           🌙 P.M. Matthew 1:18-25

18 - Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place like this. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. 19 And Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to separate from her quietly. 20 But as he considered it all, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins [hamartia - missing the mark] {God iS Life, and “is Perfect” Mt.5:48, so imperfrct is entropy, a slow gehenna that “doesn’t quit”.}

     22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord spoke long ago by the prophet, 23 “Behold, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” which means, God with us.

     24 When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the LORD instructed him and took her as his wife, 25 but knew her not, until she had given birth to a son, who he named Jesus.

THE REVELATION VISION

   🍃The revelation vision begins at 6:1-2.. white horse & rider rides through the age of our Lord, AD and towards the end all the seals progress to gallop. Surely seal-4 will not fit “7yrs only”.

  🐢The seals are described at the very beginning as their full & entire effects. This is a veil. The 1st seal-6 event was in 1945, Rev.6:12-17. Then, 7:1,3 “hold back the winds..!”

  ☀️This is where we are still at. When this is interrupted, begins scene 2. Not long after is the “peace, peace!” which alas will only hold for 7 years, and will be broken against (guess?) Israel. (The called out so Yhvh would be separated to our understanding from ‘the gods’ of the nations, etc.) Broken against Israel at about the midpoint (minus 1 month??) By completing Luke 19:41,44? “Jerusalem not one stone will be left within you, that will not be pulled down.” w/Dan.12:11.

  ⚙️”Then 1,290 days” or that is 3.5 Hebrew yrs plus 30 days “later, will be set-up the (last) desolating abomination.” This time? Upon the human temple meant for God’s Spirit/Presence. 1Cor. 3:16. And still Dan.12:11. Verse 12 “Happy the one/those who wait, and come to, the days 1,335.” Which is 45 days later? Escalation being Rev.2:10 “tribulation ten days”?

  🎦 Because the vision is told 3 times, the 1st seal-6 event is also Rev.13:13, pinpointing an office, not yet more. The 3 tellings of the vision — basically 6:1-2 to 11:19; chap.12 w/Mt.23:39; and 13:1 to 19:11. Interesting things in ch.12?

  🔭 Prophecy is fulfilled in widening scopes. Like the gospel. It began as “Israel only” then “God covered their eyes so the gospel would go to the nations” Ro. 11:25. Some scopes continue thru 8th millennium -> Rev.20 is told like describing the crests of waves, but not much of the in between.

  🎺 Two calls go (are going?) forth, in parable language, the still weeds gather to Armageddon against Israel, and the wheat is harvested, Mt.13:30, Rev.16:14-15-16, Mt.25:1-13. Context is everything. Followed, as we know, with a Sabbath millennium rest from the adversary/accuser/accelerant.

  🔥Then the adversary is loosed and gathers the descendants of apocalypse survivors to war against millennial Jerusalem, but then fire (a sort of very last seal-6 & LOF). Shortly after is the resurrection of all who were not in the “1st ressurection” at the wheat harvest.

  🎬 Great White Throne ‘Day’ goes to the end of the 8th millennium. (It was a biG bang! Then was set in motion. Pre flood was hands off, 1st proof.) Total Ant Farm versus Total ‘Herd’ Immunity? As how do you create genuinely able to think

     & reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact?

 • Romans 15:14-21  Matthew 17:1-13

            ☀️ Romans 15:14-21

14 - I myself (Paul) am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness and knowledge, so you’re able to instruct one another. 15 But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given to me by God, 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the nations in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles (nations) may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit {Presence of God with}.

     17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to be proud of my work for God. 18 For I’m determined to speak of nothing but what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the nations to obedience [hupakoé - attentive hearing and hearkening, from akoúō - to hear, and hypó - beneath, so the literal - submission to what is heard, compliance] in word and deed. 19 And by the power of the Spirit of God, by the power of signs and wonders, so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ.

     20 And so I make it my ambition to proclaim the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, the foundation already laid, 21 but as it’s written, “Those who have never been told of him will see. And those who have never heard will understand.” {Prophecy telescopes.. root word of telescope is greek tel, translated as “end” but more closely means “end-aim”. Prophecy telescopes from smaller scope to full scope at the “end-aim”. Like gospel to Israel scope.. to nations, wider scope.. ..and on GWT Judgment/discernment/review/closure for all ‘Day’..wider/full scope.}

            🌙 Matthew 17:1-13

1 - Six days later {after six millennial days, imperfection/being strayed/this unavoidable contrast, will have run its course!} (Six days later) Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain with himself alone [Mt.16:27, 24:31, 25:1-13, Zech.14:4]. 2 And he was transfigured before them, his face was shining as radiant as the sun, and his clothes became white like pure radiant light. 3 And look! There with them was Moses and Elijah, talking with him. {I think from a dimension called the future. Because Jesus said “no one has ascended into heaven” Jn.3:13.}

     4 And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord! It’s good we’re here! Look! I’ll make three tents! One for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah!” {Tabernacles.. “Behold! I make all new, God will now tabernacle/tent with mankind” Rev.21:5,3. Tabernacle, tent, triangle, three tents, three present.. triangle, Father, Son onLy straight out from God one, so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” creation and humanity - When aLL is said and done, after the “8th day”/millennium - “God will now tabernacle/tent/dwell with mankind”. See Rev.20, but the chapter’s like describing the crests of waves, and not much of the in between.}

     5 Peter was still speaking when a shining cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen {always} to him.”

     6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified! 7 But Jesus came, touched them, and said, “Rise, and have - no - fear.” 8 And when they looked up, they saw only Jesus {the Kingdom}. 9 And as they were coming back down from the mountain, Jesus said, “Don’t tell anyone the vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.”

     10 And the disciples asked him, “Why do the scribes say Elijah must come first?” 11 He answered, “Elijah indeed comes, and restores all things. 12 I say however to you that Elijah already is come, and they didn’t know him, but did to him as they pleased. And so also shall the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that he was speaking of John the Baptist. {The Elijah of their day.}

🗝️s New Testament & Bible prophecy study, verses paraphrased [ ] references { } thots

 • Romans 7:11-8:2  John 5:18-29

            ☀️ Romans 7:11-8:2

11 - For sin [greek hamartia - missing the mark] {imperfection} seizing opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me. 12 The law however, is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good.

      13 Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin {hamartia - imperfection} producing death - in me - through what is good. This is so sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become known as sinful beyond measure. 14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin. 15 For I don’t understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. {Like when a person tries to diet?} 16 Now if I do what I don’t want, I am still agreeing with the law, that it’s good. 17 So now it’s no longer I, but the sin {hamartia - missing the mark/imperfection} that dwells in me. {As God iS life and “is perfect” so imperfect is the opposite of Life. But creation as an Ant Farm is no paradise/perfection, so this ‘quick’ one&done, this unavoidable contrast let to run its course. The dis-ease as part of the cure, and immunity.} 18 For I know that good itself {perfection} does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful {in my imperfect} nature. For my spirit is willing, but the doing of the good escapes me. 20 Now if I do what I don’t want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin{/imperfection} that dwells in me. {Like if I lose my temper.. be impatient when patience is called for.. etc, etc.}

     21 So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. 22 For I delight in the law of God! Especially in my most inner being. 23 Yet I see in me another law waging war against me, making me a captive to the law of imperfection that dwells in me. {Imperfect cannot make itself perfect, what with being imperfect!} 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?!

     25 Thanks be to God! Through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh - mortal nature - I’m under the law of sin {imperfection}. {And imperfect is this slow gehenna crucible, entropy - which does not quit, cannot reverse. So the remedy was built in.. One strong enough to convince every psyche and appease every conscience. John 5:22 says “God judges no one” so he is not an angry God demanding a blood appeasement. His wrath being cause and effect and consequences. We can know that, by the Revelation bowls - final effects of mankind’s doings - for they are called his wrath, and they're quite obviously modern warfare results.}

    8:1 - There is therefore now no condemnation [katakrima - condemnation, judgment] for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For “the law of the Spirit of life” has set us free, in Christ Jesus, from the law of sin and death. {The Law of Life in Jesus ..and Jesus in us.. leading.. trumps the law of imperfection and entropy which is (unavoidably) death. God “cAn destroy both body and soul/psyche in {this slow} gehenna” fiery crucible. But! The remedy is built in and “nothing is impossible with God” Lk.1:37.

            🌙 John 5:18-29

18 - This was why the leaders of the nation were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he loosening the Sabbath {theiR rules for Sabbath} but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

     19 So Jesus told them, “Truly, the Son can do nothing from his own will. But only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, is what the Son does as well. 20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all which - he himself - is doing. And greater works than these will he show him. And so you will wonder.

     21 For as the Father raises the dead” {“raises “the” dead, not raises their dead bodies, but literally them} “and gives them life.” {A retuRn to being alive and aware, from a state of not being alive/aware}.

     “So also, the Son gives life {and awareness} to whom he will. 22 For the Father doesn’t judge anyone, but has given all judgment to the Son. 23 So that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son, does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, I tell you, whoever hears my word {logos - message, reasoning expressed in words} and believes he who sent me, has enduring life. They do not come into judgment, but have passed over [metabainó - from meta - after or beyond, and baino - to go, to walk — (have) transitioned] from death to life.” {Jesus is the logos/message/reasoning/truth -> personified.}

     25 “Truly, I tell you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.” {Including here and now. For until “Christ in us” we are reckoned as dead.} 26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man” {became in a body like man, suffered, was raised as having an incorruptible, non entropic, and perfect body. Surely was saying something by eating with his disciples after he was raised. We do not yet know what manner/substance.. A higher body but still a literal and real body and being. Not only winds. “We shall be like him”.}

     28 “Don’t marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are - in the tombs - will hear his voice 29 and will come out” {of the tombs/graves, out of the dust, the lower part of the earth} “those who have done good to the resurrection of life” {at his return/appearing, and into his long second advent ..as helpers serving, called reigning, full scope version of his so brief first advent?} “and those who have done evil [phaulos - evil, wicked, worthless, bad, base] into the resurrection of judgment.” {INTO the GWT (great white throne) JUDGMENT/discernment/proof/closure for all ‘Day’ of “aionion kolasis”/eonian korrection (Mt.25:46) (an) aion/eon/aGe of correction? SEE the Fall holy days of Lev.23) upon/during the “8th day” the “last Great Day” (millennium). Rev.20 is like describing the crests of waves and not much of the in between.} - Jn.12:32, 7:37, Lev.23:36; The DOA for the initially doa. The initiaL, inneR condition of some during GWT ‘Day’ is portrayed in the rich man and Lazarus parable and in the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22.}

JOHN 1 35-51

  🍃🕊️01/03 - GospeL Verses 🍃🕊️

35 - The next day John was standing with two of his disciples, 36 when he saw Jesus as he was walking by and he said, “Look! The Lamb of God!” {Why? Why a sacrifice? (As portrayed in the O.T. worship. Fulfilled via the only straight out from God one. Forever firstborn Son.) Imagine yourself waking up into the radiance of the GWT judgment ‘day’ and you had been a child sex trafficker.. Or even ‘just’ a child labor trafficker.. Or you had been a cruel and heartless despot, abusing and harming untold numbers of, vulnerable to you, people.. Ultimately is it God’s anger at you that needs to be appeased? As God who is Love (Life and “is Perfect”) would he by then pity you more than hate you? I am very much convinced it is the human conscience that hAs to be appeased.. Imagine the gut wrenching remorse some human players will ultimately experience.. And doesn’t God in his total wisdom, know that’s the onLy “correction” (punishment if you prefer like the partially unbelieving translators) that actually works? Surely the condition of inner, outside of the light darkness, portrayed in the rich man and Lazarus parable, and the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22, are INITIAL conditions of SOME during that “last great day” ..the “8th day” (second ‘day’ of Jesus’ long second advent -> 1Cor.15:27-28 “all” repeated five times. Changed into ‘all things’ however. Hello?)

     “The” millennium/further “training”? Also Sabbath from the adversary&co. to the --> Palin/again war to the —> 500 years (Lev.23) of GWT judgment and discernment ‘day’ an “aionion kolasis, to —> “the regeneration” greek palin/again-genesis, about which God says “behold! I make all new!” Rev.21:(1-)5. — “In the beginning” - the Light. And a biG banG into the universe as is (asis) and theN it was set in motion.. Lev.23 - For 6 millennium things let to run course, interfering only when demise was imminent during formative ages. No option to stray in Eden, and creation would be an ant farm? SO the remedy was “built in”.}

     37 The two disciples of John heard him say this, so they left and followed Jesus. 38 Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them, “What are you seeking?” And they said, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are you staying?” 39 He said to them, “Come and see.” So they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour (about 4pm). 40 One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. 41 He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which means Christ). 42 He brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas” (which means Peter).

     43 The next day Jesus went to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.” 44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip went and found Nathanael (Mt.10:3, is Bartholomew?) and said to him, “We have found he of whom Moses in the Law and also the prophets wrote! Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” 46 Nathanael said, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said, “Come and see.”

     47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said, “An Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deception!” 48 Nathanael said, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49 Nathanael said, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” 50 Jesus answered, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ you believe? I tell you, you will see greater things than that. 51 You will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending to the Son of Man.” [Rev.12:5]

GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 22:34-46

34 - Now when the Pharisees heard he had silenced the Sadducees with his answers, they too came and gathered around him. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him. 36 “Teacher, which commandment is the greatest?”37 And Jesus answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it, you shall love your neighbor (fellow person) as yourself. 40 Upon these two stand aLL the Law and the Prophets.”

     41 So Jesus asked them a question, 42 “What do you think about Messiah? Whose son is he?” They said, “The son of David.” 43 He asked, “How is it then that David, in the Spirit, calls him Lord? Saying, 44 ‘The LORD said to my Lord - sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet’? 45 If David calls him Lord, how is he his son?” 46 No one was able to give an answer, and from that day on no one tested him with any more questions.

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                  ~ 1 Timothy 1:1-8 ~

1 - From Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the call of God our Savior and of Jesus our hope, 2 to Timothy, my true child in the faith!

Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

     3 As I urged when I was leaving for Macedonia, your remaining at Ephesus is so you may charge certain ones not to teach any other doctrine, 4 nor to devote theirselves to myths (and today, strange ideas) and endless genealogies, which are only speculation rather than the faithful management of God’s program that is of faith.5 The aim is love. Love issuing from a pure [katharos - without admixture, root of catharsis, free from contamination] heart, from a good conscience and a sincere/genuine faith. 6 Certain persons, by swerving from this, have wandered away into vain discussion, 7 they desire to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what it is they are saying or the things about which they make such confident assertions. 8 But we know, that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully. (Don’t be piling on our favorite personal convictions as rules for everyone else. No one made us god! WE follow the law by loving. Having true affection for our fellow person, and not only those just like us. Diet and observance of days do not (yet) come into it. We will follow God’s compLete calendar during the Lord’s long second advent.. and beyond.. Doing so now is wonderful also, but thinking we’re all that if we do, is the opposite of love. The message of God - the proclamation - is the “good news for all”. “Whosoever will - let them - take of the water of life Freely” - God’s acceptance and approval is a gift. Then voila! We are “born again” - Jesus is “the seed” God plants in us. It is watered by God’s Spirit/Presence, so we are growing, being transformed so that “we shall be like Jesus”. The call during this life is that those who follow through will serve - called reigning - during the Lord’s second advent, a longer, wider version of his first so brief one (Mt.25:1-13). Marry this idea (truth) with the understanding that the so notorious “lake of fire” is earthly prophecy like any other. Hello? How can this be so hard to see? (Twilight zone amazing.) All three mentions of lake of fire are at huGe fiery events. I’d list them but this is already too long. “The hope of glory” - to serve as helpers during “the” millennium and during the GWT judgment ‘day’ will not require pitchforks! ..And the “crowns” are crowns “of Life” not of metal. We yield our own self to Him. He is writing his program, his “logos” - “reasoning expressed in words” upon and within us. His script. All of His will. We can trust him to carry it out. It’s the same program for all, some now, some later. We have, also, a great instruction manual, but the adversary ceaselessly is throwing every thing at it. And always has been. God is Life, surely? So there really is no other option or way. Might as well get with the program early! With genuine response. “The way/road is narrow” with wide ditches on either side, of rules and regs, or the other ditch, a do nothing, do not respond mentality. Neither ditch works very well but is like slogging through muddy water.) 🙂

GospeL Verses ~ John 8:21-32

21 - So he said to the Pharisees again, “I’m going away, and you’ll look for me, and you’ll die in your sin [hamartia - missing the mark). (ThuS rise still missing the mark.) Where I’m going, you cannot come.” 22 So they said, “Will he kill himself? Since he says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come’?” 23 He said, “You are from below [kato - down, below, downwards, lower, under, less]. I am from above [ano - up, above, up to the top, up to the brim, things above, heaven, the heavenly region]. You are of this world, I am not of this world. 24 I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.” (Thus, logically? Will rise still in their sins, still wild weeds, in the resurrection that is “after *the* thousand years”/millennium, and is “into the judgment”.. Which explains why there is the conditions portrayed in the rich man and Lazarus parable and in the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22 - as initial conditions for some, when entering the judgment.) 25 So they said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus answered, “I’m who I have told you from the beginning. 26 I have many things to say and to judge of you, but he who sent me is true, and I declare to the world what I hear from him.” 27 They didn’t understand that he had been talking to them about the Father. 28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you’ll know I am he” [the promised one, originally promised in Eden, which is why there are the ancient “son” myths and mother and babe of so many lands) “and that I do nothing on my own, but speak just as the Father has taught me”. [“Taught” - didáskō - from daō - learn, to teach, literally "cause to learn, instruct, impart knowledge, disseminate information. (Cause to know.)] 29 “And he who sent me is with me. He’s not left me alone, for I always do what’s pleasing to him.” (What is pleasing.) 30 As he was saying these things, many believed in him. 31 So Jesus said to those who were believing, “If you abide in my word, you are my disciples. 32 And you will know the truth. And the truth will set you free.”

                  ~ Colossians 3:1-11 ~

1 - If then you have been raised up with Christ (up out of the waters of baptism, born again) seek and pursue the things that are above [ano - up, above, up to the top, up to the brim, things above, heaven, the heavenly region from ana - upwards] where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on those things (the kingdom) the things that are of above, not upon the things that are of earth (worldly). 3 For the old you has died, and the new you (God’s best blueprint of the truest you) is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ - who is our life - appears, then also shall the new us appear together [syn - joined, knit close together] with him in [en - in, on, at, by, with] glory [doxa - honor, renown, glory, a divine quality]. (If life had no option of choice, what would we be? So instead of a total ant farm, it’s this all important contrast first, life as we presently know it, bringing about total ‘herd’ immunity. Life as we now know it will continue during GWTJ ‘day’ [aion] for those who rise aFter “the” millennium. And at the conclusion is the second vivification - Rev.21:5 - but translators changed “all” (greek pas) into “all things”.] 5 Let perish therefore what is selfish and self seeking/carnal in you - sexual immorality, impurity [akatharsía - from A - not, and katharós - clean because unmixed, pure], strong (negative and hysterical) emotions [pathos], bad and immoral desires, and covetousness/avarice which is idolatry [eidólolatria - image worship]. 6 On account of these the wrath (cause and effect) of God is coming. 7 In these things all once walked, when living in them. 8 But now you must put them all away -  anger, rage, malice, slander, and indecent talk. 9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with such practices. 10 And you have put on the new self, which is BEING renewed in knowledge, in the likeness of its creator. [Who “is Love” 1Jn.4:8, “steadfast love” Lam.3:22.] 11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew/Hebrew, civilized or barbarian, bondslave or free, but all and in all is Christ.

1 - I (Jesus) have told you these things, so that when it happens you will not lose faith and fall away. 2 They will put you out of the meeting places. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God! 3 These things they will do because they don’t know me, nor the Father. 4 And these things I have told you so that when the hour comes, you will remember I said them. I didn’t tell you at the beginning, because I was with you. 5 Now however, I am going back to the one who sent me, yet none of you asks where I’m going. 6 But now sorrow has filled your hearts. Yet I tell you the truth, it’s profitable for you that I go away, because if I don’t go, the helper will not be sent to you. But if I go I will send the helper (aid?) to you. 7 And having come, he (God’s very Spirit/Presence) will convince the world concerning sin [hamartia - missing the mark] and concerning righteousness and judgment. 8 Concerning missing the mark, because they do not believe in me. 9 Concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and will no longer be seen. 10 And concerning judgment because the ruler of this world has been judged. 11 I have many things however, to say to you, which you are not yet able to bear. 12 When however shall come He, the Spirit (and Presence) of Truth, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak against himself, but how much you listen, shall he speak of things coming. 13 He will glorify/reveal me, for he shall take that which is mine and explain it to you. 14 All things which are of the Father are mine. That’s why I said he shall reveal to you the things concerning me. 15 In a little while you will not see me. Then after a little while, you will see me, because I am going away to the Father. 16 And the disciples asked each other what he meant, that they would no longer see him and then they would see him again.

   ~ 1 Corinthians 10:1-6 ~

1 - I want you to remember, my friends, what happened to our ancestors who followed Moses. They were all under the protection of the cloud, and all passed safely through the Red Sea. 2 Which was like being baptized into Moses, 3 and all ate the same spiritual food. 4 And they drank the same spiritual drink, which was from “the rock” - Jesus - who was with them. 5 Albeit many of them were not well pleasing to the LORD, and some of them perished on the way, in the wilderness. (The journey was extended because the people strayed so badly.) 6 To us now, these things are types [tupos - a figure, model, type] (life made up of repeating patterns) and serves as a warning to us, not to go after or be enthusiastic for the things that are evil/notGood.

39 Soon afterward Mary got ready and hurried off to a town in the hill country of Judea, 40 where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. 41 At the sound of Mary’s greeting, the child within Elizabeth leaped! And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, 42 and in a loud voice she said to Mary, “You are blessed among women! And blessed is the fruit of your womb!” 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb jumped for joy.! 45 And blessed is she who believed (and any of us who believe) that there will be a fulfillment of what was/is spoken from the LORD.”

           ~ Hebrews 3:12-19 ~

12 Take care, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful [hamartia - missing the mark] heart that disbelieves, and turns away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you may be hardened, by missing the mark/imperfection’s deceitfulness. 14 For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold to our original conviction, firmly to the very end. 15 As it is said: "Today if you should hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as Israel did when they rebelled.” 16 And who was it who rebelled against God, even though they heard his voice? Wasn’t it the people Moses led out of Egypt? 17 With whom was he grieved with for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned (thus missed the mark) who ended up dying in the wilderness? 18 And to whom was God speaking when he said they wouldn’t enter his rest? Wasn’t it the people who disobeyed him? [Translators have usually replaced not with never - mḗ - no, not, ruling out any implications/suggestions that could be involved with what should (could, would) apply.] 19 So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.

      Am I crazy or is God ever so clever with his Word?

     ..His program of thoroughly teaching Good from notGood progresses like widening ripples in a pond. For example, Jesus’s brief first advent as ‘smaller’ pond ripple. Then his long second advent (of two millennium?) Consisting of two pond ripples - the resurrection of believers, and after a time, the resurrection of all the rest of humanity, from all time, all generations and all nations.. God’s program and prophecy progresses like widening ripples in a pond — Jesus will do the same works during his second advent that he did in his first so brief one. But with helpers, serving, called reigning. Can you see why it’s called reigning?

     “The” millennium is a Sabbath millennium. A seventh. Confirmation of this - pond ripples and Sabbath - How are Heb.3:11 and Mt.25:1-13 related? Concerning ripples and Sabbath?
