8TH ‘DAY’ CU Journal, New Testament In A Year

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

            ☀️ A.M. Galatians 3:16-21

16 - The promises were made to Abraham and his offspring. God didn’t say to Abraham, “And to your offsprings,” as though meaning many, but - “to your offspring” - referring to one. And that one, is Christ.

     17 What I mean is this - the law, which came 430 years later, doesn’t cancel a covenant/contract/agreement/guarantee, previously ratified by God, so as to annul the promise. 18 For iF the inheritance comes by the law, then it’s no longer by promise.

     But God gave the promise {gave his word} to Abraham by a promise [epaggelia - a summons, promise, from epí - upon, appropriate, and aggellō - announce – a promise which literally announces what is fitting, epaggelía is a legal term that refers to an “officially sanctioned promise”]. {Fitting because it’s the “one way” that works. Also fitting because it’s “God (who) has consigned all (humanity) to disobedience”? ..To this imperfection/entropy which “doesn’t quit”. Placing and even highlighting the option to stray in Eden. And only after the one igniter/instigator and the influenced third of his angels (messengers, covering angels) were ready to seditiously revolt. Engineering a ‘quick’ one and done? For all humanity and angels. Total ant farm versus total ‘herd’ immunity? The dis-ease (running course) as part of the cure? And immunity.. “The smoke of it will rise up forever” must be as memory, because Rev.21 describes a total ReGenesis, after this unavoidable, all important contrast.}

     19 Why then the law? It was added because of transgression [parabasis - a going aside, from pará - contrary, and bainō - go].

   The law was added, until the offspring should come to whom, and about whom, the promise was made.

     The law was put in place through angels, and by a mediator. Which mediator was Moses. 20 Now a mediator is helpful if more than one party must reach an agreement.

     But God didn’t use a mediator when he gave his promise to Abraham. {HE said it. HE will do it.}

     21 Does the law then contradict the promises God has made? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that can impart life, then indeed, righteousness would come about from the law! {There’s only one source of Life. And Father God has ordained it be given and maintained through his Son, only straight out from Him one. So close, both administer God’s Spirit/Presence. Which the saturation of humanity and creation with, will equal “sealed”. 🕊️⛲️

      How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact?

     “God is savior of all, especially” (& currently) “those who believe” 1Tim.4:10. EIGHT millennial ‘days’ =‘s one and done. Jn.12:32, Rev.20.}

            🌙 P.M. MARK 11:20-26

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 his disciples, “Have faith in God. 23 For truly, I tell 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!” {Especially mountains of difficulty? And much more fulfilled during the Lord’s long second advent? Etc.}

     25 “But whenever you pray, if you have something against someone, forgive them, so your Father who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses [paraptóma - 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 can (even) be unconscious and non-deliberate{!}].”

09-19 - 1 Thess 2 8-13 Lk 12 49-59

Verses paraphrased due to ©‘s [ref] {thots}

(An 8TH ‘DAY’ CU Studies Journal)

            ☀️ A.M. 1 Thessalonians 2:8-13

8 - We were so happy to share with you, not only the message from God, but our own lives as well. That is how dearly loved you’ve become to us! 9 For you remember, brothers and sisters, our labor and toil. How when we proclaimed to you the gospel of God, we worked night and day so we might not be a burden to anyone. 10 And you’re witnesses, and God as well, of how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct among you. 11 For you know how, like a parent with their children, 12 we taught each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, for it’s he who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.

     13 We also thank God always, that when you received the message of God from us, you accepted it not as the word and promise of men, but as what it really is! The very word of God {the promise, and message, of God} which is at work in those who believe. 

            🌙 P.M. LUKE 12:49-59

49 - He also said to the crowds, “I came to bring fire upon the earth, and I wish it were already kindled!” {Where?}

     50 “I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it’s finished! 51 Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? {Ps.2} No, I tell you, but rather division.

      52 Even in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three. 53 There will be father against son, son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

     54 When you see a cloud in the west, you say, ‘A shower is coming.’ And so it does. 55 And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, ‘It will be warm,’ and so it is.

     56 Can you not see? You know how to read earth and sky (weather). Why don’t you know how to read the times?

     57 And why do you not judge for yourselves? 58 Instead you go to law. When you go with your accuser - make every effort to be reconciled - lest you be dragged into court, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you in jail. 59 I tell you, you won’t get out untiL you pay the last penny you owe.” {Cause and effect.. nicknamed wrath?}

     {There’s righteous division, and foolish division?}

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

 • Romans 4:19-25  Matthew 9:9-17 

            ☀️ Romans 4:19-25

19 - Abraham didn’t weaken in his faith {that he and Sarah would have a son} when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old. Or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb. 20 He didn’t waver in unbelief concerning the promise of God! Instead he grew strong in his faith, as he gave glory to God. 21 For he was fully convinced that God was able to do what he had said and what he promised. 22 And that’s why his faith was “reckoned to him as righteousness.”

    23 But the words “it was reckoned to him” were not written for only his sake! 24 But for ours as well. It will be reckoned to us who believe in he who raised Jesus our Lord out from the dead [nekros - dead, deceased, lifeless, without life] 25 who was delivered over for our trespasses, and raised for our justification.

            🌙 Matthew 9:9-17

9 - As Jesus was walking on, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collecting booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed him. {Matthew who’s account this is, was a tax collector, who were not popular with fellow Hebrews/Israelis/Jews, as the taxes collected were for Imperial Rome. World domination - Imperialism - being the main dream of the rogue powers and principalities.}

     10 And as Jesus was reclined at table in the house of Matthew, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining at table with Jesus and his disciples. 11 And when the Pharisees saw this! They asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 But Jesus heard it, and said, “Those who are not ill, don’t need a physician, the ones who are not well do. 13 Go and learn what this means - ‘It’s mercy I desire, and not sacrifices.’ I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” {There’s no sense calling those who think they are righteous.}

     14 Some disciples of John (the Baptist) came looking for him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples don’t?” 15 Jesus answered them with a question, “Can the wedding guests mourn while the bridegroom is with them? The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away, and then they’ll fast. 16 No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth onto an old garment as a patch, for when the new cloth shrinks, it will tear the garment worse than before. 17 And we don’t put new wine in an old wineskin, for the skin will burst, spilling the wine and ruining the skin. But new wine is put into new wineskins, so both the wine and the skin are preserved.”

     19 Why then the law? It was added because of transgression [parabasis - a going aside, from pará - contrary, and bainō - go – properly, an overstepping, a deliberate going over the line and transgression] {wrong-doing, doing wrong/what cannot ever work, being false, not of Truth, built on sand. Added to show right from wrong. The Ten Commandments (etc) are society preserving}.

     The law was added, until the offspring should come to whom, and about whom, the promise was made. The law was put in place through angels, and by an mediator. (Which mediator was Moses.) 20 Now a mediator is helpful if more than one party must reach an agreement.

      How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact? (Sealed.)

     Because God is Life and “is perfect” mt.5:48, imperfect is entropy, which “doesn’t quit” so “God is savior of all, especially” (& currently) “those who believe” 1Tim.4:10. Eight millennial ‘days’ = one and done. Jn.12:32.}
