HE+ DID NOT RUN ~ Good Friday, 2021 ~ Hebrews 12 :1-4
HE+ DID NOT RUN
Good Friday, 2021
Hebrews 12 :1-4
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us,
and let us run with patience
the race that is set before us,
Looking unto JESUS The AUTHOR+ and FINISHER+ of our faith; WHO+ for the joy that was set before HIM+ endured the Cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the Right Hand of the Throne of GOD.
For consider HIM+ that endured such contradiction of sinners against HIMSELF+, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood,
striving against sin.
+ + +
BUT , HE+ HAS.

Monday of PASSION WEEK ~ 2021 ~ PAIN Before JOY
ALMIGHTY GOD, Whose most dear SON+ went not up to joy but first
HE+ suffered pain, and entered not into glory before
HE+ was crucified; Mercifully grant that we,
walking in the Way of the Cross, may find it none other than the Way of Life
and Peace; through the SAME+, Thy SON+ JESUS CHRIST our LORD. Amen.

The UnLeavened Bread of The PASSOVER ~ INTERACTIVE LENTEN MEDITATION #10 ~ John 6: 4-6
And the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
When JESUS then lifted up His+ eyes, and saw a great company come unto HIM+, HE+ saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
And this HE+ said to prove him: for HE+ Himself+ knew what HE+ would do.
+ + +
The “bread” which would have been available at this time WAS VERY LIKELY the un-leavened, un-raised bread loaves* BECAUSE it was the Passover season. Hebrew households were strict about removing the leaven from their houses and their diets during the Passover season.
*Loaves: Keep in mind these very likely would have been flat, round loaves, sort of like discs or “Frisbees”. These would not have been leavened, humped-up loaves of bread as are yeast breads.
Let us read about the importance of unleavened bread, in the eyes of GOD.

Moses Lifting up the serpent on a POLE ~ Interactive LENTEN Meditation #4 ~ John 8:28
SERPENT ON A POLE in Mt. Nebo
Mount Nebo is an elevated ridge of the Abarim in Jordan, approximately 710 metres (2,330 ft) above sea level. It is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as the place where Moses was granted a view of the Promised Land. The view from the summit provides a panorama of the land and, to the north, a more limited one of the valley of the River Jordan. The West Bank city of Jericho is usually visible from the summit, as is Jerusalem on a very clear day.~ Courtesy of Wikipedia

CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS: WHO Owns Your Body and Your Spirit ?
Does the BIBLE DIRECTLY tell us WHO owns our body and spirit ?
YES, but ONLY
IF our BIBLE follows the Byzantine Greek mss.
UNFORTUNATELY, we have more than 61 modern English Bibles which DO NOT TELL US directly “who” owns our Body and Spirit.
Let us hear the WORD of GOD IN 1 Corinthians 6: 19 - 20.
What ? know ye not . . .
that your body is the temple of the HOLY SPIRIT Which is in you, Which ye have of GOD, and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a price:
therefore glorify GOD in your body,
and in your spirit, Which are GOD’S.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
+ + +
In 1 Corinthians 6:20 , hundreds of Byzantine manuscripts speak with one voice, telling us WHO owns both our body and our spirit.
. . . and in your spirit, Which are GOD’S.
But of the 61 English version Bibles listed on Bible Gateway’s website
only 12 included the last seven words.
