            ☀️ A.M. 1 Thessalonians 5:15-28

15 - In conclusion, no one should repay evil for evil! Always seek to do good to one another! And to everyone! 16 Rejoice always. 17 Never cease praying. 18 And give thanks in all circumstances. For this is the will of God, in Christ Jesus for you.

     19 Don’t quench the Spirit(/Presence of God). 20 Don’t despise prophecy.

     21 But do test everything. And hold fast to what is good! 22 Abstain from every form of evil.

     23 And now may the God of peace sanctify you wholly and complete, completing your spirit, soul/psyche and body blameless [amemptós - blameless, faultless] AT the coming of our Lord Jesus. 24 He who calls you is faithful. He will surely do it!

     25 Brothers and sisters, pray for us. 26 Greet all with a holy kiss. 27 I say - in the Lord - be sure to have this letter read to all.

     28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you!

            🌙 P.M. LUKE 14:15-24

15 - A man reclining at table with Jesus (at a supper at a Pharisee’s house) heard his parable of the wedding banquet, and said to him, “Blessed/happy is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!”

     16 And Jesus said, “Yes!” and he told another parable, “A man once planned and gave a great banquet and invited many to it. 17 And when it was time for the banquet he sent his worker to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come! For everything is now ready!’

     18 But they all began to make excuses. First, someone said, ‘I’ve bought a field, and I must go and inspect it.’ 19 Another said, ‘I’ve bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go and see to them. Please have me excused.’ 20 And yet another said, ‘I’ve married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’

     21 So the worker came back and reported all this to the mister. And the master of the house was offended! He said, ‘Go quickly out into the streets, the lanes and the alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame!’

     22 Soon the worker came back and said, ‘Sir, I’ve done as you instructed, and we still have more room.’ 23 So the mister said, ‘Go out to the highways and the hedges and invite people to come in, so my banquet will be full. 24 And I tell you, none of those who were invited {and didn’t show} shall share in this banquet.’” {Where does the door of the parable of Mt.25:10 reaLLy go? And - in context - what might the other gathering be, of Mt.13:30?? Do we see these gatherings occurring in today’s world?}

           Luke 13:1-9

1 - About this time Jesus was informed that Pilate had murdered some people from Galilee as they were offering sacrifices at the Temple. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? 3 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will perish.” 6 Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. 7 Finally, he said to his gardener, ‘I’ve waited three years, and there hasn’t been a single fig! Cut it down. It’s just taking up space in the garden.’ 8 “The gardener answered, ‘Sir, give it one more chance. Leave it another year, and I’ll give it special attention and plenty of fertilizer. 9 Maybe it will have figs on it next year. If not, then cut it down.’”

   ~ 1 Thessalonians 2:14-20 ~

14 My friends, you did just like God's churches in Judea and like the other followers of Christ Jesus there. And so, you were mistreated by your own people, in the same way they were mistreated by their people. 15 As a matter of fact they killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets and drove us out, seeming to be hostile to all, which is not pleasing to God.. [He “has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy upon all” Romans 11:32.] 16 They even tried to stop us from preaching to the Gentiles the message that would bring them salvation. In this way they have brought to completion all the sins they have always committed. And now the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. 17 Dear brothers and sisters, after we were separated from you for a little while (though our hearts never left you), we tried very hard to come back because we wanted to see you again, and face to face. 18 We wanted very much to come to you, and I, Paul, tried again and again, but Satan prevented us. 19 After all, what gives us hope and joy, and what will be our proud reward and crown as we stand before our Lord Jesus when he returns? It is you! 20 You are glory and joy to us!
