ADVENT # 1 -- Remembering the ENTRANCE of The LORD JESUS CHRIST into Human History

Foundation of the Apostles and Prophets ~

For through HIM+ we both have access
in one SPIRIT unto The FATHER.

Latin church ~ is NOT about a holiday time of gift-giving and parties
with friends and families.

In the beginning was The WORD+
John 1:1
In the
beginning was . . .
but this WAS is not the English “was”, as an action which took place in the
past and ended there.
In English, the corresponding verb – in meaning -- would be translated as “was continuously BEING.”
ADVENT #4 -- WHO faithfully reveals the CHARACTER of GOD our FATHER ?
In the beginning was The WORD+
John 1:1

specific WORD+ is in focus here. This WORD+, this LOGOS+, was continuously BEING , continually existing at
the first of all time, TIME as we know it.
ADVENT #5 -- The BRIGHTNESS of HIS Glory . . . The EXPRESS IMAGE of HIS ESSENCE
Who+ being the brightness of HIS Glory, and the express
image of HIS person, and upholding all things by the word of HIS power, when HE+
had by HIMSELF+ purged our sins, sat down on the Right hand of the MAJESTY on High: HEBREWS
1:1-3, excerpts
Advent #6 -- The Warning from the LIGHT-HOUSE
In the beginning, was The WORD+
And The WORD+ was with GOD
And The WORD+ was GOD.
John 1:1
BECAUSE The LORD JESUS has the same identical character as Our Heavenly FATHER, we have this confidence:
BECAUSE The LORD JESUS has the same identical character as Our Heavenly FATHER, we have this confidence:
HE+ will never leave us nor forsake us, as Scripture tells us.

ζωὴ
ἦν καὶ ἡ ζωὴ
ἦν τὸ φῶς τῶν ἀνθρώπων
Translated literally:
In HIM+, LIFE was
continuously being, and furthermore,
the LIFE was continuously being the LIGHT of men.
What an astounding ABSOLUTE !
What an absolute
JOY, as well !
ADVENT #11 ~ The UNCONQUERED LIGHT+ of The World
And the light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:5
The

And The LIGHT in the
darkness SHINES
and the darkness did
not overpower it.
WHERE was this darkness ?
