Hebrews 13:1-7  Mark 4:30-34

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 13:1-7

1 - Let brotherly love take root and remain. 2 Don’t be forgetful of hospitality, for by it some have entertained angels without knowing it. 3 Remember your brothers and sisters who are in prison, as though you are in prison with them! And also those who are mistreated, since you also are in this world.

     4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed be undefiled, for the sexually immoral and adulterous God will judge. {All in their hearts! The logic being isn’t that - the, most convincing - perhaps onLy true convincing? JN.12:32.}

     5 Guard from, and keep your life free, from the - love - of money. Be content with what you have, for He has said, “I will never leave you, nor forsake you”. 6 And so we, with all confidence, can say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can mere man really do to me?”

     7 Remember your elders in the faith, those who spoke to you the message [logos - word, speech, message, account, reason, doctrine, expressed in words reasoning] of God. Consider the fruit of their ways, and imitate their faith. {666 ‘only’ runs for 45 days.. test: another 45 is w/ rev.13:13. Which was carried out by an office, and enabled by a magician. I’ll add the verses below.}

            🌙 P.M. MARK 4:30-34 ⭐️

30 - And Jesus said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God? Or what parable shall we use to describe it?

     31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed. When it’s sown in the earth, it’s the smallest of all the seeds. 32 Yet, when it takes root, sprouts and grows, it becomes the tallest and biggest plant in the garden. Even the little birds come and make nests in its branches.” {Summary of the Outlines! ..In the scripture/written logos; the week plus one and within that outline, the Spring and Fall holy days - of Lev.23 - as 1st brief advent and 2nd long advent. See names and patterns.}

     33 It was by many such parables that he taught the message to the people, as they were able to hear. 34 He didn’t speak to them without a parable, but privately, to his own disciples, he explained everything.

45 days = Dn.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 & 1 Cor.3:16, plus Rev.2:10 as the escalation.

1 more very revealing one - Mt.13:30 is Rev.16:14-16 &/or Mt.25:1-13.

Jn.5:28-29 and Mt.25:46 - phrase is “aionion kolasis” (eonian korrection / age of correction).

 • Titus 1:10-16  Matthew 25:1-13

            ☀️ A.M. Titus 1:10-16

10 - For there are many who are off course. And many are empty talkers and misleaders. 11 They’re upsetting whole families by teaching for personal gain and satisfaction, what they shouldn’t teach. 12 One of those of Crete, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” {Sorry but we’re all liars, evil beasts and lazy gluttons! Lol. Crete is where Titus was, helping to build and establish a believing group.} 13 This is true! So rebuke such sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not devoting themselves to myths and the commands {or ideas?} of people who turn away from the truth. {Usually to conform to “the world”?}

     15 To the pure, all things are pure. {Food, days and drink, grace brings moderation. Also in ideas, beliefs and attitudes?} But to the defiled and disbelieving, nothing is pure, nor good. {So they want to impose rules for others concerning their ideas or convictions? Anything that says ‘come follow moi’.} This is because their minds and their consciences are corrupted. 16 They profess to know God, but they deny him by their life and actions. They are being detestable, disobedient, unfit [adokimos - disqualified, unapproved, rejected, failing to pass the test, counterfeit, not fit] for any good work. {For serving.. Including serving called reigning during the two millenniums of the Lord’s long second advent, full scope version of his first so brief one? 🗝️Rev.20 is told like describing only the crests of waves.}

            🌙 P.M. Matthew 25:1-13

The Bridesmaids Parable - [The word bridesmaids is “parthenos - virgins, includes men who have not been with a woman, also used to refer to believers as pure (chaste), i.e. faithful to Christ their heavenly Bridegroom.” {Rev.14:4.}]

     {Believers are, in different parables, the bride, the bride’s attendants, and guests at the wedding banquet. Purity of the bride is important as is purity of the attending. But “the door” is to the Lord’s second advent, and is why it closes. It’s not, as has been supposed, a door forever shut to Life.]

     25:1 - (Jesus continuing to answer the question, “what will be the sign of your coming and the consummation of the age?” says) - “At that time, the kingdom of heaven will be like ten bridesmaids who took their torches and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were wise, and five were not. 3 For when the unwise took their torches they took no oil. 4 But the wise kept flasks of oil with their torches. 5 And as the bridegroom was delayed, they all became sleepy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a cry! ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

     7 Then the maids rose and put their torches in order. 8 But the unwise said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our torches are out!’ 9 But the wise answered, ‘There won’t be enough for us and for you! You need to have your own oil.’” {Another’s light/faith/grace cannot make us fit.}

     10 “And while those bridesmaids went seeking oil, the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage banquet, and the door was shut. 11 Afterwards the other maids came knocking and saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us!’ 12 But he answered, ‘Truly, I tell you, I don’t know you.’

     13 Watch therefore, for you are not aware of the day, nor the hour, in which the Son of man comes.”

 • Romans 9:27-33  Matthew 13:31-43

           ☀️ Romans 9:27-33

27 - Isaiah cried out concerning Israel, “Though the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, only a remnant will be delivered [sozo - saved, healed, preserved, delivered, rescued] 28 for the Lord will carry out his sentence {cause and effect} upon the earth, fully and without delay.” {We have assumed earthly judgments to be forever and eternal judgments, but the word involved is usually aion, root of eon, and means age, or aionion, of an age. Forever, and afterlife, is assumed due to ancient pre biblical belief.}

    29 And also Isaiah predicted, “If the LORD of hosts had not left us descendants, we would have been like Sodom and become like Gomorrah.” {Awaiting resurrection into GWT judgment/full discernment ‘day’ surely the aionion kolasis / eonian korrection of Mt.25:46.}

     30 What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who didn’t pursue righteousness, have attained it! That is, a righteousness that is by faith. 31 But Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness missed the mark in reaching that goal.

     32 Why? Because they didn’t pursue it by faith, but as if it were based on {their own} works {effort, earning}. They have stumbled over the stone that makes people stumble. {Life is a Gift.} 33 Even as it’s written, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock that offends. And whoever believes in him will not be confounded, blamed nor shamed.”

            🌙 Matthew 13:31-43

31 - Jesus told another parable, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed we plant in a garden. 32 It’s the smallest of seeds, but when it grows, it’s larger than all the other plants. So much so, that birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.”

     33 And he told yet another parable. “The kingdom is like leaven a woman works into three measures of flour, until - all/the whole is leavened.” {13:33 with 1Corinthians 15:22-28, key word 3. Three Loaves! Three Harvests!! Barley/Christ; the wheat; aNd a grape harvest, Rev.21:5 “pas” means “all” not “all things”. Compare (1Cor.15) 27 to 28! Same word seven times, pas/all, so why only five rendered the inferior “all things”? Disbelief of the genuine message? And also because of ancient spiritual propaganda?}

     34 All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables. He didn’t tell them anything about the kingdom, except by parables. 35 This fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet, “I will open my mouth in parables.” {Riddles! Things hidden in plain sight!} “I’ll utter what’s been hidden since the beginning/founding of the world.”

     36 When he left the crowds and went into the house, his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” 37 So He told them, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world. {The field is the world.} The good seed is the sons and daughters of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons and daughters (still) of the evil one” {this world, under sway of the evil intentioned one}. 39 And the enemy who sowed is the devil.” [Speiró - sow, scatter.]

     “The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40 Just as the weeds are gathered and burned in a fire, so will it be at the end of the age.” {Judgment ‘Day’ is not until much later, Rev.20. There are three mentions of “lake of fire”. Each one is at a huge, fiery and earthly event. Things are being let to run their full course.}

     41 “And the Son of Man will send his angels, and they’ll gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all practicing of lawlessness. 42 They will be thrown into the fiery furnace.” {That fiery furnace, I am convinced is Rev.16:14-15-16, Is.24:20, Rev.10:4, especially considering context.} “There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.”

 • Romans 9:9-18  Matthew 13:1-17 and ACTS 16:20-40 separately

           ☀️ Romans 9:9-18

9 - For this is what the promise to Abraham was: “About this time next year I will return, and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 And not only so, but when Rebekah had conceived children by our forefather Isaac, 11 though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good nor bad - in order that God's purpose of election {HiS choosing} might continue, not because of works {not because any are better or worse} but because of he who calls {assigns one of two roles} - 12 she was told, “The older (Esau) will serve the younger (Jacob).” 13 As it’s written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I loved less” [miseó - hate, detest, love less, esteem less]. {Logic - “God iS love” 1Jn.4:8.}

     {Romans 11:32 - “God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy upon all.” But some are “firstfruits”. Why? Choices other than God’s are being let to run their course, which is both entropy and history to their full conclusion, both individual and collective. Rather than we being some sort of ant farm, it was engineered that all undertake this unavoidable journey through this all important contrast, all together at once, with some being corrected (kolasin) now who will serve called reigning during the Lord’s long second advent? Surely(?) a full scope version of his first so brief one. As it iS GOD who chooses WHEN one believes, is reconciled to Him, and goes through the process of correction to full discernment/judgment. Jn.5:28-29 - Jesus said “an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs [mnémeion - grave, sepulchre, tomb, place of interment] will hear his voice and will come forth, those causing good to the resurrection of life and those practicing evil to the resurrection of judgment/discernment/review/closure for all, the “aionion-kolasis” / eonian-korrection / age of correction, Mt.5:48.}

    14 What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! 15 For he said to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” {Like assigning roles.. “all the world’s a stage” - Shakespeare. “And the ancient of days took his seat..” Dan.7:9.}

     16 So then - it depends not upon human will, or exertion and effort, but depends upon God. And his mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power, and that my name [onoma - name, character, fame, reputation, cause] might be made known in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy on whom he wills, and hardens {or keeps hard} whomever he wills. [Hard - sklērýnō – hardened, inflexible, literally - dried out.] {To be “called, etc” during this lifetime is a lucky shake of the heavenly dice?}

            🌙 Matthew 13:1-17

1 - A while later that same day, Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea. 2 A great crowd gathered around him, so many that he got into a boat and sat down, and while the crowd stood on the beach, 3 he told them many things in parables, saying, “A sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and ate up the seed. 5 Other seed fell on rocky ground and sprang up quickly, but because there was no depth of soil, 6 when the sun rose high, they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns {of life} grew up and choked them off. 8 But some seed fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirtyfold. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.”

     10 Then the disciples came, and they asked him, “Why do you talk to the people in parables?” 11 And he answered, “To you it’s been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it hasn’t been given. 12 And to the one who has, more will be given, and they’ll have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what they have will be lost. 13 This is why I speak in parables, because seeing no one sees, and hearing no one hears, nor understands”. {Mortal person cannot understand until God calls.. and “the seed” Jesus is implanted in them, and God waters and nourishes it.} 14 “Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says, ‘You will indeed hear but not understand, and you will indeed see but not perceive. 15 For the heart has grown dull, and with ears they can barely hear, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.’ [Isaiah 6:9-10]

     16 But - blessed - are your eyes, for they are seeing, and your ears, for they are hearing. 17 For truly, I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you now see, and didn’t see it, and to hear what you now hear, and didn’t hear it.”

🌙 17 - So some of the disciples said to each other, “What is this he’s saying? ‘A little while, and you’ll not see me, and again a little while, and you’ll see me’? And, ‘because I’m going to the Father’? 18 What does he mean by ‘a little while’? We don’t understand.”

     19 Jesus knew they wanted to ask, so he said, “Are you wondering, what I mean, ‘A little while and you won’t see me. And again a little while and you’ll see me’?

    20 Truly, I tell you, you will weep and mourn, but the world will rejoice. You’ll be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn to joy. 21 When a woman gives birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she’s delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the pain and labor, for joy that a human being has been born into the world! 22 So also you have sorrow now, but I’ll see you again, and your hearts will rejoice. And then no one will take your joy from you. 23 In that day you’ll ask nothing of me. Truly, I tell you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name [onoma - name, reputation, cause] he’ll give it to you. 24 Until now you haven’t asked in my name. Ask, and you’ll receive, so your joy will be full.

     25 “I’ve said these things to you in figures of speech. But the hour’s coming when I’ll no longer speak to you in parables and illustrations but will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you’ll ask in my name, and I don’t say I’ll ask the Father on your behalf. 27 For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and believe that I came from Him. 28 I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now I’m leaving the world and going (back) to the Father.”

     29 The disciples said, “Now you’re speaking plainly! And not using parables and proverbs. 30 Now we know that you know all things and don’t need anyone to question you. And this is why we know you came from God.”

     31 Jesus answered, “Do you now believe? 32 Behold, the hour’s coming, indeed has come, when you’ll be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I won’t be alone, for the Father’s with me. 33 I’ve said these things to you, so that in me you may have peace. In the world you’re bound to have tribulation. But take heart! I’ve overcome the world.”

{This parable is about the high Seraphim who was a “covering angel over Eden” - this is a note from last year.🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ And other covering angels joined him. Of course God knew! Waited so long.. This is an unavoidable journey! We’re all in the same boat, and going to the same place, Rev.21:1-5, 2Pet.3:12-13, JN.12:32. “The lion will (once again) eat straw like the ox, and the bear will graze with the cow” Isaiah 11:7.}

     Vs.1 - Jesus began to speak to them in parables. He said, “A man planted a vineyard. Then he put a fence around it, dug a pit for a winepress, and built a tower for it. Then he hired tenants and went off to another country. 2 When the harvest came, he sent a hired worker to the tenants to get from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they took him, and beat him and sent him away empty-handed.

     4 A little later he sent another worker, and they hit him over the head and treated him shamefully. 5 Then he sent another, who they killed! And so with many others. Some they beat, and some they killed. 6 Then he had still one other, a beloved son. And finally he sent him, thinking to himself, ‘They’ll respect my son.’ 7 But those (evil) tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir! Let’s kill him! And the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 So they seized him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard.

     9 Now what do you think the owner of the vineyard will do? Won’t he come and pay back those evil tenants, and give the vineyard to others?! 10 Have you not read the Scripture, ‘The stone [Christ] the builders rejected is THE chief stone {both of humanity and creation} 11 this is the Lord's doing, and it’s marvelous in our eyes’!?”

     07/30 - GospeL Verses

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 while the crowd was there beside the sea. 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 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 because it had no roots for moisture. 7 Still some other seed fell among thorns and thistles, which grew and choked them out, and so there was no grain. 8 But some other seed fell into good soil and it grew and produced grain, growing tall and increasing, and yielded thirtyfold, sixtyfold and even a hundredfold.” 9 And he said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear!” {Absorb.. take in the seed.. be good soil. ..Light, water, nurturance/fertilizer! Bread for the soul-Greek word psyche.}

     10 Later, when he was 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 (quote) ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing, they may hear, but not understand, lest ever  [pote - from the base of pou and te - 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.] {Lest when..(?) Verse quoted is Isaiah 6:9 - and one of the cross references to it is -  “BRING OUT a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf” Isaiah 43:8.

     So 1Tim.4:10, Jn.12:32, occur/continues During “the Last Great Day” Jn.12:37. An “8th ‘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” “..and the Ancient of Days took his seat..” Dan.7:9.

     Also later at GWT ‘day’ of Judgment/Discernment/Closure. Creation choices were Ant Farm or Total Herd Immunity? Iron RuLe - God iS life, and “is perfect” so imperfect is this entropy. A crucible and process that “doesn’t quit”. So the remedy was “built in from the foundation/beginning”.

     “BRING OUT a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf” Isaiah 43:8. ..Then what? Remember, God “is Love” and surely he is 100% unfettered Genius. Or are we puny humans able to envision something greater and better than what he can do?}

17 - So some of the twelve said to one another, “What does he mean, ‘In a little while, you won’t see me, then, in a little while, you will see me, because I’m going to the Father’? 18  And what does he mean by ‘a little while’?”

     19 Jesus knew they wanted to ask him, so he said, “Is this what you are asking among yourselves, what I mean by saying, ‘A little while and you won’t see me, and again, in a little while, you will see me’? 20 Very truly I tell you, you will weep, and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn to joy. 21 When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour’s come, but when she has delivered the child, she no longer remembers the anguish for joy that a human being has come into the world. 22 So also you, you’ll have sorrow now, but I’ll see you again, and your hearts will rejoice. And no one will ever take your joy from you! 23 In that day you’ll ask nothing of me. Truly, I tell you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. 24 Until now you’ve asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you’ll receive, so your joy will be full.

     25 I’ve told you these things in parables and figurative speech. But the hour’s coming when I’ll no longer use figures of speech but will tell you openly and plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you’ll ask in my name, and I don’t say that I’ll ask the Father on your behalf, 27 for the Father himself loves you, and is happy that you have loved me, and have believed that I came from him. 28 I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now I’m leaving the world and going to the Father.”

     29 And the disciples said, “Now you’re talking plainly, and not in figurative speech. 30 We know you know all things and don’t need anyone to question you, and so we believe you came from God.” 31 Jesus answered, “Do you believe? 32 Behold, the hour’s coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own house, and will leave me alone. Yet I’m not alone, for the Father’s with me. 33 I have told you all this, so that in me, you will have peace. In the world you’ll have tribulation [thlipsis - pressures, afflictions, troubles, persecutions]. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

21 - After this Jesus went to the district of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely oppressed by a demon!” 23 But he didn’t answer her a word. And his disciples said, “Send her away, for she is following after us.” 24 He answered them, “I am only sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” {Always teaching. Living parables.} 25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” 26 And he answered, “It’s not right to give the children's bread to the little puppies [kunarion - little dog, puppy].” 27 She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the puppies eat the crumbs that fall from the masters' table.” 28 Then Jesus said, “Oh woman, great is your faith! It will be done for you as you have asked.” And her daughter was instantly well.

     29 Jesus went on from there and walked beside the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain {hillside} and sat down. 30 And great crowds came from all over, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and put them at his feet, and he healed them all.

     31 And the people marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled walking, the lame made whole, and the blind seeing. And the God of Israel was glorified [doksázō - from dóksa - glory, glorify, literally - to ascribe weight by recognizing the genuine substance and value].

     32 Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I am concerned for the people. They’ve been with us now for three days and they don’t have any food. And I don’t want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on their way.” 33 And the disciples said, “Where are we to get enough bread in such a remote place to feed so great a crowd?” 34 And Jesus said, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.” 35 And directing the people to sit down, 36 he took the seven loaves and the fish, and giving thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples. And the disciples gave them to the crowds. {Another living parable.} 37 And everyone ate and was satisfied. And they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over. 38 Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children. 39 Then, after sending the people on their way, they went by boat to the region of Magadan.

MATTHEW 13 44-58

   🍃🕊️02/16 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

44 - (Jesus continues.) “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure that’s hidden in a field! A person at finding it, will cover it up again, and then in joy will go and sell all that they have and will go and buy that field.” {The treasure of Truth is hidden in plain sight, in intriguing riddles? Father likes a good riddle?}

     45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, 46 and when he finds one pearl, of great value, will go out and sell all that he has and buy it.

      47And again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that is thrown into the sea and gathers fish of every kind. 48 And when it’s full, men draw the net ashore and sort the good from the not good. And they will gather the good but throw back the bad. 49 So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous 50 and throw them into the fiery furnace.” {Judgment, consequences, results.} There will be the weeping and gnashing of teeth.” {Fiery judgment simultaneous with Jesus’ return beginning his long second advent - Mt.13:30 is both Rev.16:14-15-16 and Mt.25:1-13. And they rise into GWT judgment ‘day’ initially some gnashing teeth.. which progresses to weeping..}

     51 “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes.” 52 And he said, “Every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a house, who brings out of their store, treasure that is new, and treasure that is old.” [2Tim.3:16]

     53 And when Jesus had finished these parables, he left there, 54 and coming to his hometown he was teaching in the synagogue, and they were astonished, and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works? 55 Isn’t this the carpenter's son? Isn’t his mother called Mary? And aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? (We have letters written later by James and Jude.) 56 And don’t all his sisters live here? Where then did he get all this?” 57 And they were offended at him. But Jesus said, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own household.” 58 And he was not able to do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.

Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Mark 12:1-11

     (This parable is about the high Seraphim who was a “covering angel over Eden”. And other covering angels joined him. Of course God knew! Waited so long.. This is an unavoidable journey! We’re all in the same boat, and going to the same place, Rev.21:1-5, 2Pet.3:12-13, JN.12:32. “The lion will (once again) eat straw like the ox, and the bear will graze with the cow” Isaiah 11:7.)

     1 - Jesus began to speak to them in parables. He said, “A man planted a vineyard. And he put a fence around it, and he dug a pit for the winepress and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenants and went off to another country. 2 When the season came round, he sent a worker to the tenants to get from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they took the worker, and they beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 A little later he sent another worker, and they hit him over the head and treated him shamefully. 5 And he sent another, who they killed! And so with many others, some they beat, and some they killed. 6 Then he had still one other, a beloved son. And finally he sent him, thinking to himself, ‘They will respect my son.’ 7 But those (evil) tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 And they took him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard. 9 What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Have you not read this Scripture, ‘The stone [Christ] the builders rejected is THE chief stone (of humanity and creation) 11 this is the Lord's doing, and it’s marvelous in our eyes’!?”

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                ~ Galatians 4:1-7 ~

(Speaking of us - ) verse 1 - What I (Paul) mean, is that the heir, as long as they are a child, is no different from a worker or servant, though they are the owner of everything! 2 But they are under guardians and managers until the date set by their father. 3 In the same way we also, when we were children, were held in bondage to the basic principles of the world. 4 But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, and born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were held under by the law. (Truth an iron/unbreakable measuring rod. Imperfection/“missing the mark” is the opposite of Life, because God iS life, and he “is perfect” Mt.5:48. And imperfect is a held in bondage to it condition.) This is all so that we might receive adoption as sons, daughters and heirs (to Life). 6 And because we are his heirs, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Father! My Father!” 7 So you are no longer a servant, but a son or daughter, and if a son or daughter, then an heir through God. (“We shall be like Jesus” 1Jn.3:2. Which God calls his jewels, Malachi 3:17.)

GospeL Verses ~ Mark 4:30-34

30 - And Jesus said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God? Or what parable shall we use to explain it! 31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed! When it’s sown in the earth, it’s the smallest of all seeds in the field, 32 yet when it sprouts up and is grown, it is larger than all the other garden plants and it puts out long branches, so even the birds of the air come and make nests in it.”

     33 It was by many such parables that he taught the message to the people, as they were able to hear it. 34 He didn’t speak to them without a parable, but privately, to his own disciples, he explained everything.

                ~ Hebrews 13:1-7 ~

1 - Let brotherly love continue. 2 Don’t neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for some have even unknowingly entertained angels. 3 Remember those who are in prison, as though you are in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in this world. 4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. 5 Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor will I forsake you.” 6 So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear, for what can man do to me?” 7 Remember your elders in the faith, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the fruit of their ways, and imitate their faith.

GospeL Verses ~ Mark 4:13-23

13 - And he said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? [Of the sower.] How then will you understand any of the parables?14 The sower sows the word [logos - reasoning expressed in words, (the) message]. 15 And the seed along the path, is about those who when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that is sown. 16 And the seed sown on rocky ground are the ones who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy. 17 But they lack root in their selves, and endure only for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises because of the message, they fall away.18 And the seed sown among thorns are those who hear the word, 19 but the cares of the world, the deceitfulness of riches, and desires for other things choke the word, and it proves to be unfruitful. 20 But the seed sown on good ground are the ones who hear the word and receive it and bear fruit, thirtyfold, sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”

     21 And he said, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket? Under a bed? Or on a lampstand? 22 Nothing is hidden except to be made known. Nor is anything secret except to come to light.” (So we should keep studying!) 23 “If anyone has ears to hear, let them hear.”

25 - Take heed not to refuse the one speaking, for if they who refused to hear the divine instructions of he who warned them upon earth, and so they didn’t escape (the judgment/consequences of “every thought being only evil” aka, the flood) how will we escape if we turn away from he who is from heaven? 26 At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” 27 This - “Yet ONCE more,” shows the removal of all that can be shaken—that is, that has been made [poieó - made, done, manufactured]—in order that what cannot be shaken (truth) will remain. (The verse original sense says “the” not, “the things shaken/not shaken, removed”.)

The Disease Is The Cure

I’m convinced the dis-ease is the cure.. that this aLL-important contrast iS the crucible, laver and sieve, a slow gehenna. There’s big trends on to push away the scripture. This is because we’ve been taught to read it wrong! But the angle and focus that fits is revealed in the wheat and tares (weeds) parable. We all, of course are born wild weeds in God’s garden. Parables, I think, portray literal things, cause and effect, and logic. And concerning this one, what sort of fire do we gather our weeds of the garden to? A bonfire. So in the literal, to a gehenna flared up. The tares are gathered (surely?) to armageddon, mankind’s last war battle. Mt.13:30 being Rev.16:13-16.

     There are two resurrections, we know this because one is called “first” and in the same verse it says “the rest of the dead don’t rise until after *the* thousand years”. So the wheat (who’s chaff has been removed) “rise into Life” into the thousand years (represented by the ten days between Trumpets and DOA, lev.23) - Mt.25:13, they enter the bright procession and go through the door of the “ten bridesmaid’s parable”. And the still wild weeds (tares) rise into the GWT judgment ‘day’ that begins after the Sabbath millennium of a thousand years, Jn.5:28-19. Surely this ‘day’ will include closure concerning aLL things. Can we doubt the creator’s thoroughness? And skills of organization?

     So.. Just because the message has been gotten - anywhere between somewhat to all wrong - is no reason to toss out the message!

GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 22:1-10

1 - And again Jesus talked to them in parables, saying, 2 “The kingdom of heaven can be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son. 3 He sent his workers to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they wouldn’t come. (The so called important folk? I.e, the Pharisees, etc.) 4 So he sent other workers, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited that I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fatted calves, everything is ready! Come to the wedding feast! 5 But they paid no attention and went instead, one to his farm, another to his business, 6 while the rest seized his workers, insulted and mistreated them, and killed them! 7 The king was angry, and sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those who were  invited are not worthy. 9 Go therefore to the highways and and the byways and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.’ 10 And those workers went out into the roads and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good. And so the wedding hall was filled with guests.

They have labored side by side with me (Paul) in the gospel, together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life. 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, rejoice. 5 Let your reasonableness be apparent to everyone. The Lord is at hand, 6 so don’t be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer, and by asking with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds anchored in Christ Jesus.
