Revelation 16:8-16

      WeeKly BooK oF Revelation      

8 - The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun {‘code’? The sun is thermonuclear, God’s ‘wrath’ is cause and effect, Ps.90:3,5-7} and it was allowed to scorch people with fire. {Where the numbers of the beast come up, suggests apocalypse is totally done by mankind, for we are carbon based. Carbon has six protons, six neutrons and six electrons.} 9 They were scorched by the fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God who had power over these plagues. {If creation had no option to stray, it would be an ant farm. And if you don’t let it run its course, what would be the point?} They did not repent {and relent?} and give him glory.

     10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom became more dark. People gnawed their tongues in frustration 11 and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores. They did not repent/relent of their deeds.

     12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. 13 For I saw having come out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. {Leave a terrible taste. From the dragon, a two pronged work, via the modern day many headed geopolitical beast/entity/institution, and an of-the world false prophet, whose “flood” of a “strong delusion” of “seating man in the temple as god”/highest power, has caused the west, once called Christendom to “fall away”. It has more modern wonders and “miracles to mislead” and of course prophesies.} [From the dragon — the big {world? for both it and last days Babylon sits on all seven continents/hills} beast (Rev.13:1, Dan.7:7,19) and a false prophesying one]{/entity/institution(s).} 14 For they are demonic spirits, performing portends, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. (Ps.2; Rev.6:3,4) {The consummation of history, like other judgments, is called Day of the LORD. The ‘shape of prophecy is in increasing scopes to full scope. Both world and advents.} 15 (“Behold, I am coming {unexpected} like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, staying fully clothed, that they may not go about naked and be seen unclothed!”) 16 And they assembled at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon. {Logically, Mt.13:30, “gather first the tares” is this gathering to Armageddon battle — verses 14(15)16.}

GospeL Verses ~ Luke 24:36-48

36 - As they were all together, talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said, “Peace to you!” 37 But they were startled and frightened and wondered if they were seeing a spirit. 38 So he said, “Why are you troubled? Why is there doubt in your hearts? 39 Look my hands and my feet, and see that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. A spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones as you can see I have.” 40 And as he said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 They were still having a hard time believing, yet they were marveling with joy. He said to them, “Have you anything to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 which he took and ate while they were watching, 44 and said, “This is what I said to you while I was with you. That everything written about me in the Law of Moses, by the Prophets and in the Psalms must be fulfilled.” 45 He opened their minds then, to understand those Scriptures, 46 and he said, “It’s written that the Christ should suffer and rise on the third day, 47 and that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 And you are the witnesses of these things, that they occurred. (Hosea 6:2, he days, those of us still tares, millenniums.) (The Psalms are very prophetical.)

                         ~ Hebrews 1:1-4 ~

1 Long ago, at many times, and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers through the prophets, 2 but in these last [eschatos] days he has spoken to us by his Son - whom he appointed heir of all - and through whom also he created the ages. 3 He is the radiance of the glory of God. The exact likeness of his nature! [Likeness - charaktér - a tool for engraving, an impression, representation, exact reproduction; xaraktḗr was originally a tool used for engraving and then came to mean a die/mould. Finally it stood for a stamp or impress used on a coin or seal.] (Ultimately THE stamp, and seal, of God - creation, and humanity, will be sealed.) And he (the Son) upholding all, by the word of his power, through himself making purification of sins [hamartia - failure, missing the mark] sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. 4 Having then been openly revealed as superior to angels, and of having a name, and a cause, that is far more excellent than that of angels. (To be continued..)

GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 24:45-51

45 -  “Who then” Jesus concludes “is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give out food at the proper time? (And proper food.) 46 Blessed will be that servant whom his master will find so doing when he returns. 47 Truly, I tell you, he will set that one over all his possessions. 48 But if that wicked servant says to theirself, ‘The master is delayed,’ 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants and eats and drinks with drunkards [methuó - another form of methe; this word description included Rev.27:6, $ity Babylon drunk on blood] (lead a decadent life) 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when they do not expect him, and at an hour he does not know 51 and will separate that one, putting them with the actors/pretenders. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (If we miss going through the door to “the” millennium, we will be separated into the earthly events - the final consequences of mankind’s doings, called God’s wrath. There’s the two gatherings? “First gather the tares into bundles to be burned” in armies to armageddon battle? “And the wheat into my barn” - 2Thes.1:7,8; Rev.16:13-16, Mt.13:30 - Simultaneous occurrences.

                  ~ Titus 1:1-9 ~

The three T’s one and two Timothy and Titus, are called “pastoral letters”. They are instructions for leaders. Titus 1:1 - From Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith and for the preservation of the truth, which works toward godliness, 2 in hope [elpis - expectation] of the unfading life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began. 3 Then at the proper time he revealed in his word, the preaching which I have been entrusted with by the command of God our Savior — 4 To Titus, my true child in the faith: Grace and peace from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Savior.

     5 This is why I left you in Crete, so you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as we decided — 6 if anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, whose children are believers and not given to debauchery or being unruly. 7 For an overseer, and true leader, acting as God's steward, must be above reproach. He mustn’t be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent, nor be greedy for gain, 8 but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. 9 He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as delivered, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and be able also to correct those who contradict.

WeeKly BooK oF Revelation 19 17-21

                 a paraphrased study

17 - Then I saw an angel standing in-the-sun.* (The sun is thermonuclear. First mention of a lake of fire seems to accompany the Armageddon battle [go figure! Rev.16:13-16] in the parable, the gathering of the still tares/wild weeds to a bonfire, Mt.13:30. 🗝️We don’t gather weeds out of our garden and cast them into a never ending pit of fire labeled ‘hell’.) And with a loud voice he called to all the birds of midheaven (the high flying predator birds as opposed to the little low flying birds) “Come. And gather for the great supper of God! 18 To eat the flesh of kings (“he has thrown kings off their thrones” from Mary’s magnificat) the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men (who even “sold the lives and bodies of persons”? And war profiteers?) the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great.” (See verse 17, the sun.) [And Jesus said he “will draw all” (Jn.12:32) and - “All those in the tombs/graves will hear God’s voice and will come forth” (from the graves/tombs) “some into the resurrection of life (into THE millennium). And some into the resurrection of judgment” (Jn.5:28-29) which elsewhere He calls agelasting correction [“kolasin aionion” oR “eonian correction” Mt.25:46].

     19 And I (John) saw the (many headed geopolitical huge) beast and the kings of the earth, along with their armies. And they were gathered to make war against he who was sitting on the (white) horse and his army [Ps.2]. 20 And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet (both institutions) who in its presence/before had done the signs/miracles (modern wonders) by which he deceived those who had received the (lauded as an enhancement?) mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image [eikón - an image, statue, representation, from eíkō - be like") – properly, mirror-like representation, referring to what is very close in resemblance, like a high-definition projection😮]. These two were thrown alive (still, active, at the Lord’s return) into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (See verse 17, the sun.) 21 And the rest were slain by the sWord that came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and all the birds were gorged with their flesh. [“Thy (s)Word is Truth” Jn.17:17.]

           John 15:1-17

[“I am the Vine, You are the Branches”]

      1 - Jesus said to them, “I am the true [aléthinos - true, real, genuine] vine. And my father is the keeper of the vineyard. [Geórgos - worker of the soil, husbandman, farmer, farm-laborer, vine-dresser, from gé - the earth, land, and érgon - work, deed, action that carries out/completes an inner intention and purpose.] 2 Every branch not bearing fruit, he removes” (from the vine) “and every branch bearing fruit, he prunes [*kathairó - removing undesirable elements]. In order to bring forth more fruit. 3 Even now, are you being pruned ..by the word(s) [logos - “reasoning expressed in words” message, words] I speak to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As a branch can’t bear fruit unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine and you are the branches. If you abide in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit.  But apart from me you can do nothing” (for the kingdom). 6 “But a branch that does not remain on the vine - connected to the vine - will dry up, and will then be gathered and cast into fire.” (A bonfire! When cleaning the garden, we don’t gather sticks [or weeds/tares] to throw into an eternal, never-ending fiery pit at the center of the earth. That was from ancient ‘authorities’/powers that were?) 7 “If you abide in me and my words abide in you, whatever you ask for in prayer shall be done for you. 8 By this my father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and then are you my disciple. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commands/instructions, you will abide/remain in my Love, as I have kept the Father’s commands and remain in his love. [Instructions - entolé - an injunction, order, command, from en - in which intensifies télos - (which means) reach the end and consummation (the end-aim) – properly, in the end, focusing on the end-result (objective) of a command.] 11 I have told you these things, so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy will be full. 12 And this is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 There is no greater love than to lay down your life for your friends. 14 You are my friends if you follow my instructions. 15 I do not call you servants, for a servant doesn’t know what the mister is doing, but I call you friends, for everything I hear and have heard from the Father, I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, I chose you. And I have appointed you to go forth and bear enduring fruit, that the Father may give to you what you ask him for in my name. (For his works.) 17 This, I command you, that you love one another.

  ~ 1 Corinthians 9:17-23 ~

17 If I (Paul) do this work willingly, I have a reward [misthos - wages, hire] but even if unwillingly, I am still entrusted with a responsibility. 18 So what is my reward? It is to spread the Good News free of charge! Without claiming my rights in my work for the gospel. 19 But, even though I am free from all (in obligation) I have made myself a servant to all. This is so I might win/convince all the more people. 20 To the Jews (Hebrews, Jew is an uncomplimentary slang) I became like a Hebrew, so as to win the Hebrews. To those under the law I became like one who is under the law, though I myself am not obligated to “the law” of Moses, though he, like Jesus, was Hebrew/Jewish), so as to win those who are under the law. 21 And when I am with the Gentiles who do not follow the Hebraic/Jewish law, I too live apart from that law so I can bring them to Christ. Though I am not free from God’s law, but am under Christ’s law. 22 To the weak I become as weak (focus on my weaknesses) to win the weak. I become all things (try to find common ground with all) that I may by all means save some. 23 I do it all for the gospel, that I may be in partnership with it. (On the one true-est Path.)
