19 – 21 March 2024 PART 2 OF 2
2 Peter 3
9 The LORD is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but [they being blind, don’t see He] is [here] long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the LORD will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements [stoicheion – the corrupt foundational ideas and ways of men] shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy [uncorrupted] conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements [stoicheion] shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our LORD is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable [asteriktos – able to be moved by deceivers] wrestle, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction [apoleia – perdition].
Proverbs 27
1 Boast not yourself of tomorrow; for you know not what a [new] day [when understanding enlightens the ignorant] may bring forth.
2 Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips.
3 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both.
4 [Man’s] Wrath is cruel, and anger [‘aph – passionately doing evil] is outrageous [sheteph – is the flood]; but who is able to stand before envy [those who refuse to believe this word, because the LORD chose to send it through another, as with Abel, who Cain killed out of wrath, anger, and envy; “who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.”]?
5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
In these last verses, the LORD leads us to the “flattery” spoken of in Daniel 11, which is how the “wicked one,” the king of the north (Obama), overcomes all people and misleads them into desolation in his war against God and His people.
Daniel 11 speaks of the “appointed time” (mow’ed) that was yet to come, before which time came the war desolations described, while the kings of the north and south (speaking of the Democrats and Republicans, like Israel and Judah), dividing the people for gain (of their kings), war against one another. As we know, mow’ed is the word rendered “time” and “times” in Daniel 12:7, (times) in which none will understand, because the book (God’s word) is sealed until the end, when it is opened, as many are purified of (men’s) corruption that sealed it.
Daniel 11
22 And with the arms of a flood [sheteph] shall they [the holy people] be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also [gam – speaking of God’s people, as the unfaithful the dead body of Christ, gathering these men’s words as evil fruit that is spoken against] the prince [I Am] of the covenant. [The word gam first appears in Genesis 3:6 rendered “also,” where it should says Eve gave Adam the evil fruit she “gathered” from the serpent, listening to corrupt tree’s bad advice and misleading advice; and then in verse 22, again rendered “also,” speaking of life that comes from “gathering” from the good tree of life.]
23 And after the league [chabar – meaning “to join (literally or figuratively); specifically (by means of spells) to fascinate] made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people [m’at gowy – a few people who don’t know God, who broadcast these men’s evil spells].
24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers [as communists redistributing the wealth they seized by taxation and judicial injustice]; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices [broadcast their evil spells] against the strong holds, even for a time.
25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand [for humanity, but for themselves]: for they shall forecast devices [broadcast their evil words] against him.
26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat [that depend on him for their pork: a portion of the taxes] shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow [by the flood broadcast]: and many shall fall down slain.
27 And both of these kings’ hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end [qets] shall be at the time appointed [mow’ed].
28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant [the promise God made to Abraham in Genesis 15, and repeated in Genesis 22]; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.
29 At the time appointed [mow’ed] he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as [came against] the former [sea], or as [he first came against] the latter [‘acharown – the same word rendered “hinder” sea in Zechariah 14:8 above].
30 For the ships of Chittim [the new warrior{s}, “bruisers” of the serpents’ head {see Genesis 3:15}, the LORD raises as His army against him] shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant [because they know it foretells their end]: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with [biyn – giving them his evil understanding and bad advice to] them that forsake [abandoned and refused to obey] the holy covenant [as promised to Abraham when he obeys the voice of the LORD].
31 And arms [the strength, as Ariel now taken] shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength [ma’owz – the Rock in which we trust], and shall take away the daily sacrifice [which is to pay the necessary price to speak the word of God, declaring it is His presence manifest in our flesh], and they shall place the abomination [the creations of devil, which they have put is God’s place and call by His name] that makes desolate.
32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries [chalaqqah – only appearing here, meaning “flattery, smoothness, fine promises,” speaking of the false preachers, prophets, and teachers that tell the uninquisitive sheep they are saved by following the abomination they created and call by God’s name]: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits [fighting the good fight of faith, giving this word of God and His understanding held therein].
33 And they that understand [sakal – are intelligent] among the people shall instruct [biyn – give this understanding to] many: yet [of the many] they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be helped with a little [m’at] help [this still small voice of the LORD, heard but not yet accepted as His presence manifested]: but many [deceivers: false preachers, prophets, and teachers] shall cleave [lavah, the origin of the words Levite and Leviathan – speaking of those mixed among as teachers and preachers, now corrupt, speaking and broadcasting their evil communication] to them with flatteries; as Peter speaks of beginning 2 Peter 2].
35 And some of them of understanding [because of the doubt sown by the corrupt trees] shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end [qets]: because [the LORD continues His long-suffering, not willing that any should perish, but that all world come to repentance] it is yet for a time appointed [mow’ed].
36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation [za’am] be accomplished [kalah – end in destruction of the communists now in power – as in Isaiah 10 above]: for that that is determined [charats – decreed] shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers [the Founding Fathers of this nation], nor the desire of women [the now unfaithful church], nor regard any god: for he [the communists in power: Obama and his idiot son] shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces [ma’owz – seeking total control over all people, forcing them to trust and worship the abominations they put in God’s place and call by His name]: and a god [communism in church and state] whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds [ma’owz] with a strange god [the many false Christs men have created and call by God’s name], whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide [as they have] the land for gain [as have Obama and his idiot son].
40 And at the time of the end [qets] shall the king of the south push at [nagach – go to war against] him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind [sa’ar – causing great fear, manufacturing hoax crises, causing irrational fear and panic they use to gain and keep control: a war that is as], with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow [with the flood of evil communication] and [bring the] pass over [‘abar – the end when the dead are awakened, “some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt”].
[sa’ar, only used eight time, refers to Deuteronomy 32:17, saying:
15 But Jeshurun [God’s people who prospered under Him] waxed fat, and kicked: you are waxen fat, you are grown thick, you are covered with fatness [prosperity that comes by following My good advice]; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation. 16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. 17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared {sa’ar} not. 18 Of the Rock that begat you you are unmindful, and have forgotten God that formed you. 19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters. 20 And he said, I will hide my face {paniym – My presence} from them, I will see what their end {‘achariyth} shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith. 21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. 22 For a fire is kindled in my anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.]
Daniel 11
41 He [the communists in power] shall enter also into the glorious land [‘erets – the earth, among the people of God’s promise: the holy covenant], and many countries shall be overthrown [by the flood]: but these [because they are his ilk and confederates] shall escape out of his hand, even Edom [the enemies of God’s people, mixed among us, at war with us while calling it peace], and Moab [whose mouths are the gates holding humanity in death and hell], and the chief of the children of Ammon [who divided God’s people into factions].
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt [this nation now ruled by tyrants] shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans [the empty minded and afflicted, resulting from a lack of God’s word] and the Ethiopians [those covered in darkness, deprived of understanding] shall be at his steps [mits’ad – only used two other times, in Psalms 37:23 saying “The steps {mits’ad} of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delights in his way.” And Proverbs 20:24, saying “24 Man’s goings {mits’ad} are of the LORD; how can a man then understand {biyn} his own way? 25 It is a snare to the man who devours that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry {to investigate his own crimes, as do the wicked in power over church and state, and in doing only find the innocent guilty}. 26 A wise king scatters the wicked, and {so they rise not to power again} brings the wheel over them.”.
44 But tidings [shmuw’ah – this report, rumored to be the still small voice of Jehovah] out of the east [from this sun rising of this new day of light] and out of the north [the ignorant held in darkness coming to understanding as the light shines on them] shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many [with their flood of lies and false accusation, as we see and hear daily from the wicked].
45 And he shall plant [deep within] the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain [the “deep state” – the wicked among God’s people, sitting in seats of power]; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
Daniel 12
1 And at that time [of the promised end reached] shall Michael [who is made in God’s likeness] stand up [‘amad – resurrected in these last days], the great prince which stand for the children of your people: and there shall be a time of trouble [tsarah – the tribulation], such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time your people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the [now opened] book.
2 And many of them that sleep [this is Abram deep sleep – Genesis 15:12] in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine [give understanding] as the brightness of the firmament [the exposition that divides the words of men from the words of God]; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.
4 But you, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end [qets]: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
5 Then I Daniel looked, and, behold [I saw], there stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river [during the time when the book is sealed and opened].
6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river [of time carrying this word of God forward], How long shall it be to the end [qets] of these wonders?
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and swore by him that lives for ever that it shall be for a time [mow’ed – an appointed time when the book was closed], times [mow’ed – now when it is opened], and an half [chetsiy – when this word is split open again and rightly divided]; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power [by corrupting the true word of God, and it isn’t in them effectually working to bring them to life] of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my LORD [‘adown], what shall be the end [‘achariyth – the last days] of these things?
As often discusses, this chapter gives the formula (time and times – both from mow’ed, meaning the appointed time) and numbers of days that add up to the time of Abram’s deep sleep, beginning then and ending now: when the LORD Himself reveals them as He opens the book and we find ourselves written therein.
Daniel 12
9 And he said, Go your way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
10 Many shall be purified [of the corruption that hold them in death’s sleep], and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination [men’s word’s and ways, as idols put in God’s place] that makes desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days [the time, and one of the times].
12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days [the other of the times – adding the time 1290 + (to the times 1290 + 1335) = the number of years since Abram’s {Abraham’s} deep sleep began].
13 But go you your way till the end [qets – the full end, now when we are awakened] be: for you shall rest, and stand [‘amad – from the sleep in death resurrected] in your lot at the end [qets – the full end] of the days [here spoken of].
Ephesians 6
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand [for all humanity] against the wiles of the devil[s now in power over the world they deceived into corruption and insanity].
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities [arche – God’s designed government now in the hands of the wicked], against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
Isaiah 29
1 Woe to Ariel [the Lion of God – the strength {understanding} of God, here taken and controlled by the wicked], to Ariel, the city where David [the lion of Judah] dwelt! add you year to year; let them kill sacrifices.
2 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel [it will again be My strength].
3 And I [as a man of war] will camp against you round about, and will lay siege against you with a mount, and I will raise forts against you.
4 And you shall be brought down, and shall speak out of the ground, and your speech shall be low out of the dust [as the voice of the serpent from the ruin of the earth], and your voice shall be, as of one that has a familiar spirit [of the known dead speaking words of death], out of the ground, and your speech shall whisper out of the dust.
5 Moreover the multitude of your strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passes away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.
6 You shall be visited [paqad – as the Chief Overseer of the Earth] of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition [matsowd – her munitions are the net with which they catch those who are without the root, foundation, of righteousness], and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
8 It shall even be as when a hungry man dreams, and, behold, he eats; but he awakes, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreams, and, behold, he drinks; but he awakens, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul has appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion [when they awaken and realize their own mind’s delusions deceived them and they have been emptied of all understanding].
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder [not knowing what you are experiencing]; cry you out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 For the LORD has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep [with no signs of life], and has closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers [ra’ah – those who see as God sees] has he covered [kacah].
11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book [cepher] that is sealed [chatham], which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray you: and he says, I cannot; for it is sealed [chatham]:
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray you: and he says, I am not learned.
13 Wherefore the LORD said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart [the foundations of their mind – their stiocheion is corrupt] far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous [eye opening] work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder [pele’ – at which all have wondered]: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their [wicked] counsel [‘etsah] from the LORD, and their works are in the dark [their own ignorance of reality and truth they can’t understand because it is as a foreign language], and they say, Who sees us? and who knows us?
16 Surely your turning of things upside down [the overthrow] shall be esteemed as the potter’s [yatsar] clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed [yatser] say of him that framed [yatsar] it, He had no understanding?
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon [purity seen in high places] shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words [this word] of the book [cepher], and the eyes of the blind shall see [again] out of obscurity, and out of darkness [by coming out of ignorance].
19 The meek also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 For the terrible one is brought to naught, and the scorner is consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off:
21 That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproves in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of naught.
22 Therefore thus says the LORD, who redeemed [padah] Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale [but they will reach the end promised].
23 But when he sees his children [who have been born again out of death and hell], the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name [declare My identity Holy], and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured [against me] shall learn doctrine.
Hosea 13
14 I will ransom [padah] them from the power of the grave [sh’owl, Sheol]; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be your plagues; O grave [Sheol – hell], I will be your destruction: repentance shall be hid from my eyes [nocham cathar ‘ayin – this comfort, restoring things and matters concealed shall come as this fountain of living waters].
In Genesis 22:4 we are told of Abraham, on the third (resurrection) day, seeing (ra’ah) the place “far off,” using the word rachowq, meaning “remote, literally or figuratively, of place or time; specifically, precious;” speaking of this time when the world is ruled by evil decree. The statement comes while describing the LORD as Jehovah-jireh (Jehovah sees – everything) to Abraham, after he sees as the LORD does and obeys His voice.
Genesis 22
15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
16 And said, By myself have I sworn, says the LORD, for because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son:
17 That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate [of hell] of his enemies;
18 And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice.
19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba [the well of seven oaths – the promises flowing from the Father].
The word rendered “possess” in verse 17 above is yarash, meaning “to occupy (by driving out previous tenants, and possessing in their place); by implication, to seize, to rob, to inherit; also to expel, to impoverish, to ruin.” It’s used to describe the seducers who possess and control the goodman’s house and of our (I and the children God has given me) inheriting it with the land (America) and earth.
Hebrews 11
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Through faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that [by our obedience] they without us should not be made perfect [all of us together, resurrected in ONE BODY in the Father’s presence].
Mark 12
24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do you not therefore err [planao – as a deceiver in the darkness], because you know not the scriptures, neither the power of God [to raise the dead by His word effectually working in us quickening us into life]?
25 For when they shall rise [anistemi] from the dead, they neither marry [gameo], nor are given in marriage [gamisko – gama’ ischus]; but are as the angels [messengers joined with the LORD] which are in heaven [this place of full understanding, from where His voice is heard].
26 And as touching the dead, that they rise [egeiro]: have you not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: you therefore do greatly err [planao].
28 And one of the scribes [one of those who write about the God’s word] came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear [in Deuteronomy 6:5 the word is shama’, meaning not only to hear but also to obey and do], O Israel; The LORD our God is one LORD:
30 And you shall love [agapao] the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength [ischus]: this is the first commandment.
[Deuteronomy 6:3 Hear {shama’} therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as the LORD God of your fathers has promised you, in the land that flows with milk and honey. 4 Hear {shama’}, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these words, which I command you this day, shall be in your heart: 7 And you shall teach them diligently unto your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lay down, and when you rise up.]
31 And the second is like, namely this, You shall love [agapao – give this word as you have been given, diligently teaching the children of God to hear and obey, as commanded], your neighbor as yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, you have said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength [ischus], and to love his neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?
36 For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my LORD, Sit you on my right hand, till I make your enemies your footstool.
37 David therefore himself calls him LORD; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.
38 And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes [who with error, planao, define the written word and oppose this sound doctrine], which love to go in long clothing [who cover themselves with their own words], and love salutations in the marketplaces [and speak to be commended and saluted by men],
39 And the chief seats in the synagogues [to keep power in church and state], and the uppermost rooms at feasts [to exalt their voice above God’s truth]:
40 Which devour widows’ houses [widows who don’t have a real living man to protect and defend them from the wicked who prey upon such], and for a pretense make long prayers: these shall [do now] receive greater damnation.
41 And Jesus sat over against [kathizo katenanti – set himself directly in opposition to: the opposite of] the treasury [gazophulakion – the treasure house, where these treasure are stored in men’s darkness, reserved for this time of war], and beheld how the people cast [ballo] money into the treasury [gazophulakion]: and many that were rich cast [ballo] in much.
42 And there came a certain poor [without worldly power] widow [the same widows as in verse 40, seeking a living man to lead her, and found none], and she threw in [ballo] two mites [duo lepton – cast away the scales from her eyes], which make a farthing [kodrantes – makes one fourth: makes one ready for the Creator’s work]
43 And he called unto him his disciples [students], and says unto them, Truly I say unto you, That this poor [without worldly power] widow has cast [ballo] more in, than all they which have cast [ballo] into the treasury [gazophulakion]:
44 For all they did cast in of their abundance [and kept much of what corrupted and blinded them]; but she of her want did cast [ballo] in all that she had [that blinded her], even all her living [bios – here current state of existence, cast away looking for a flesh man, so she could be created anew by the Creator, who is the unseen Spirit working and speaking from the flesh of those chosen “of the Spirit”].
Romans 8
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are [created] after [the work of] the Spirit [and keep in mind, hear and obey] the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity [opposite] against God: for it is not subject to [hupotasso – not hearing or obeying] the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ [the LORD’s presence] be in you, the [flesh] body is dead because of sin; but [now] the Spirit is life because of [His] righteousness [right thinking, corrected away from the blinding corruption that spotted, stained, our flesh minds].
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up [egeiro] Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken [from death into life] your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify [make dead] the deeds of the [flesh] body, you shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself [Himself] bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the [long] sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory [the manifested presence of the LORD] which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation [of the new creation] of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature [the old flesh] was made subject to [hupotasso – hearing and obeying] vanity [mataiotes – worthlessness, only appearing elsewhere in Ephesians 4:17 where it’s the darkness of the minds of those who haven’t yet known the present LORD; and in 2 Peter 2, where it’s the words of those who, with their evil conversation {aselgeia}, allure those who escaped them], not willingly, but by reason of him [LORD] who has [until now] subjected [us to this vanity] the same in hope [of the escape, the new creation, the liberty now at hand, which we see in our experiencing Him],
21 Because the creature [the natural man] itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption [to from its ruin, the dust of the earth, create us] into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groan and travails in pain together until now [waiting for the new creation, bringing the new Spiritually minded man into the world].
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our [flesh] body.
24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is [now] seen is not hope: for what a man sees [the reality he hoped for], why does he yet hope for?
25 But if we hope for that we see not [the LORD manifested presence], then do we with patience wait for it.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helps [with a little help, His still small voice heard declaring Himself with us, in us] our infirmities [our weakness, inability to see the unseen]: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself [Himself] makes intercession for us [interrupts and intervenes] and with groanings [stenagmos – only appearing elsewhere in Acts 7:34] which cannot be uttered [alaletos – only used here, meaning they are only known and spoken by God]. [Acts 7:31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the LORD came unto him, 32 Saying, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob {God of the living, present in every generation}. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold. 33 Then said the LORD to him, Put off your shoes from your feet: for the place where you {now} stand is holy ground. 34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning {stenagmos}, and {therefor, I} Am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you into Egypt. 35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush {in the good conversation, the fire that burned but never burned out}. 36 He brought them out, after that he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years. 37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet {I Am, Timothy, in whom the LORD has chosen to reveal His presence in this generation of the living He brings with me from death into life} shall the LORD your God raise up {from the dead into life} unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall you hear {and obey}.]
27 And he that searches the hearts [the minds of those who’ve known God, and recorded His words] knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for [entugchano – a five times used word meaning to light upon; referring us to its use in verse 34 below, and in Hebrews 7, saying “24 But this man, because he continues ever, has an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession {entugchano} for them.”] for the saints according to the will of God [to make His word known to be His presence with this generation].
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [proorizo, meaning “to limit in advance,” literally saying this is the fore {predetermined} horizon, from where the sun rises in this new creation; this moment in time, when all thing are perfected: finished, filled full] to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be [I Am] the firstborn [of this new creation] among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate [proorizo], them he also called [through me announcing His presence] called [to, in like manner, speaks His word and declare His presence]: and whom he called, them he also justified [dikaoo – rendered {made and showed to be} just and innocent of any offence against God {of which they are falsely accused by those guilty of such}]: and whom he justified, them he also glorified [revealing His presence in them].
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us [declaring us innocent], who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up [into this time, to suffer the rejection and false accusations of men] for us all, how shall he not with [raising Him to life again] him also freely give us all things [as He has here and now]?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifies.
34 Who is he that condemns? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen [egeiro] again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession [entugchano] for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love [agape – freely giving us all things] of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For your sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved [agapao – freely gave His treasures to] us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love [agape – this grace given by the Divine charity] of God, which is in Christ Jesus our LORD.
1 Peter 4
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be you therefore sober [of a sound mind], and watch unto prayer [for the LORD to speak in this conversation wherein His mercy is revealed to all humanity].
8 And above all things have fervent charity [agape] among yourselves: for charity [agape] shall cover the multitude of sins.
9 Use hospitality [be generous, giving these gifts] one to another without grudging.
10 As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified [declared and realized to be present] through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion [over all God’s creation] forever and ever. Amen.
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you [so only the truth of God remains], as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory [His presence in His word] shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy [when He is realized alive in you].
14 If you be reproached for the name [the identity] of Christ [manifested in you], happy are you; for the spirit of glory and of God rests [lighted] upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters [as these evil acts now pervades the world, promoted by the corrupt church and state institutions].
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian [Christ alive in you], let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf [declaring He is alive in us, proving Himself present].
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved [by obeying], where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
Psalms 34
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened [given understanding]: and their faces were not ashamed.
6 This poor man [who had no power to deliver himself] cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles [tsarah – the tribulation].
7 The angel of the LORD encamps round about them that fear him, and delivers them [natsal – same as harpazo, pulls them from the fires to Himself here present].
8 O taste [this word of God in your mouth, to be given as received] and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.
9 O fear the LORD, you his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions [in whom the LORD’s strength should be found] do lack, and suffer hunger [without this word of God]: but they that [diligently] seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
11 Come, you children, hearken unto [shama’ – hear and obey] me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 What man is he that desires life, and love many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile [fraud, words meant to deceive and do harm].
14 Depart from evil, and do [‘asah] good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face [presence] of the LORD is against them that do [‘asah] evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers [natsal – as promised] them out of all their troubles [tsarah – the tribulation, the time of Jacob’s trouble].
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saves such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivers him [natsal – harpazo, here in the earth takes them into His hand, shielding them from the fires, as promised “pulling” them] out of them all.
20 He keeps all his bones [‘etsem – his essence: self, joined with His]: not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The LORD redeems [padah] the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
