Persistent Persuasion Required

· 1Co_10:12 – Let anyone who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall

· Gen_4 – Cain was not persuaded by Abel's righteousness

· Gen_26:15-25 – the Canaanites stopped up Abraham's monotheistic wells

· 2Sa_16:8-13 – Shimei (Saul's descendant) threw rocks at David

· The apostate, liberal, pagan Kings refused to be persuaded by the clean monotheistic Prophets

· Act_13:6-12 – Bar-Jesus / Elymas (Jewish magician & false prophet) tried to persuade the proconsul Sergius Paulus (in Paphos) and Paul trumped him with God's authority

· Let's take heed lest we also perish

Hopefully Bible-obeyers have apprehended this basic requirement for initial salvation, but this virtue is never finished working out righteousness for the rest of their lives in saving them, and it even makes them actually increase in being well-persuaded by Truth and Wisdom as ‘they shine brighter into that perfect day’ (Pro_4:18).

From Persuasion to Well-Persuasion

· Have we been persuaded by the Truth of Divine Bible obedience?

· Are we ready to grow in being even more Well-persuaded by Truth?

· What do you think the difference is ‘from one level of glory to the next’ (2Co_3:18)?

Persuasion Required for Unity

· The World is radically evil, but why should the righteous ever suffer from lack of virtue?

· Why should the righteous ever feel lonely among themselves?

· Why should the righteous ever sabotage or even endanger the foundation of their unity and reciprocation?

· You got to embrace the Divinely-wise Truth-Love that gives you the integrity to be persuaded by Wisdom into full agreement with the righteous in order to be the Truth upon the earth that changes everything and lasts into eternity!

Persuaded by What???

· Not by wolves! (4Ma_12:6 Greek)

· Not by lies, but…

· By Truth (Rom_2:8-9; Gal_3:1; Gal_5:7) and Wisdom (Jas_3:17)!

Zealous & Persuadable

7/10/22

· The Virtue of being easily persuaded in Jas_3:17 (seen below) literally means & refers to being efficiently “well” good persuaded by Wisdom.

· It does not, for example, pertain to the counterfeit of being persuaded by the persecution of sinful people (as seen in the Greek of 4Ma_12:6 * below)
[* this is a linguistic reference, not a canonical endorsement]

· Easily persuaded does not mean apathetic or non-zealous.

· The Maccabean Martyrs had to stand firm and maintain zeal and resist being well-persuaded by the lies of sinful pagans and yet simultaneously be well-persuaded by the Truth of the Resurrection.

· Being well-persuaded is only a virtue if you are being persuaded by a virtue; otherwise it is apostasy, compromise, and giving up.

· Moses had to maintain zeal for what God said while also remaining the meekest person in the World (Num_12:3) in order to also be persuaded by Aaron (as seen in Lev_10 below).

· David had to be a zealous warrior and ready to kill evil flesh balls and yet also be so quickly and delightfully persuaded by the Divine and striking wisdom of Abigale (as referenced below in 1Sa_25)

· You have to be a zealous warrior and a Loving gentle Shepherd at the same time.

· Being Easily persuaded does not imply that you are not assertive or sometimes insisting on a superior worldview, goal, or value system.

· Standing against lies and being persuaded by Truth go hand-in-hand and are always simultaneously required.

· You got to be zealous to stand for Truth and you also got to be easily persuaded by Wisdom & Truth.

· Let’s beware and be educated so as to not mistake setbacks and the requirements for communication as lack of persuasion.

· We got to get this virtue right lest we mistake “Divine mistakes”, working through communications, ordained frictions, or even good zeal as though it were lacking the virtue of being easily persuaded.

· We got to get this virtue right so we can actually be good persuaded by the Truth in Bible-obeyers (each other, if we’re disciples) & teachers/leaders (Heb_13:17) and enter into a new era of unity, agreement, and reciprocation with the Truth, as the World has virtually never seen!

Valid Conditions of Persuasion

Things Which Require Persuasion - Things You Should Be Persuaded By - Which Most People Aren't

· Love

· Wisdom

· Logic

· Virtue

· Holiness (see below)

· Reverence! (see below)

· Truth - no matter how it is stated... even hardcore Truth, which is sometimes harsh

· What else?

These are Valid Conditions (Prerequisites) of Persuasion.

While we want to be as quickly persuaded by facts as possible, these virtues have to be somewhere, as Prerequisites, in order to establish those facts as Truth.

A righteous person is not accountable or responsible or liable for being persuaded by any non-knowledge of unestablished facts, therefore finding, communicating, and establishing these real facts with these real virtues is the only path to valid and morally virtuous persuasion.

If you lack real knowledge, then persuade with raw virtue, not pseudo-“facts”.

Whether or not something may or may not be correct is not relevant / is completely irrelevant to the virtue of being well-persuaded, nor is there any virtue at all in wishing that anyone be persuaded by it, since virtuous faith always requires the integrity of established Truth before God has assigned a righteous person to be faithfully engaged with any information.

Invalid Conditions of Persuasion

· Politeness

· Softness

· Niceness

· Easiness -- WHO is supposed to have the “easiness” aspect in being “easily persuaded”???
Is it the one speaking or the one listening?
The “easiness” aspect does NOT always go both ways when apprehending this virtue!
(that’s an enigma-question to a very simple fact, but many people can act like they have no clue as to the basic definitions, ideals, and goals here when pursuing this persuasion-virtue)

Although niceness and other amenities are very desirable whenever possible and available, yet they are logically and morally invalid prerequisites to being easily persuaded by the Truth.

These are invalid, inappropriate, and unacceptable as prerequisites of persuasion.

If you abuse them like that, you get hell as a reward.

Barriers to Persuasion That Must Be Removed

· Oversensitivity

· Pillow & cushion-requirements

· Distrust toward the Truth

· Foreign postures toward Monotheism and Orthodoxy (what makes you different?)

· Flesh! (comp. 1Co_3:1-4 with 1Co_4:7 below)

1Co_4:7 LSV for who makes you ·to differ [διακρίνει – TSK: “Gr. distinguisheth thee”]? And what do you have, that you did not receive? And if you also received, why do you glory as not having received?

Why Was Moses Angered?

Other date(s) (July 22); 7/31/22

· ‘Don't outwardly morn lest there be wrath on this people’ (~Lev_10:6*)

· You can see why Moses was angry since two people were just recently killed for not obeying God's rules exactly like He said.

· We actually see that this sinful morning (which can result in wrath and more death) in fact happened as a result of Korah’s rebellion in Number 16 (Aaron’s sons killed: Lev_10; Miriam & Aaron Grumble: Num_12; rebels burned: Num_16:35; complainers plagued & killed: Num_16:41-50)

· The mourning that Moses forbade Aaron to do was actually carried out later on by flesh-ball blasphemers after Korah’s rebellion, resulting in even more unnecessary loss of life.

* Leviticus 10:6

Lev_10:6 WEB Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, "Don't let ~~the hair of~~ your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you don't die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.

Lev_10:6 CAB And Moses said to Aaron, and Eleazar and Ithamar his sons that were left, “You shall not uncover [καταλελειμμένους] your heads, and you shall not tear [ἀποκιδαρώσετε] your clothes [τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν], so that you do not die, and so there should be wrath on all the congregation. But your brothers, even all the house of Israel, shall lament for the burning, with which they were burned by the Lord.

Lev_10:6 καὶ εἶπεν Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ααρων καὶ Ελεαζαρ καὶ Ιθαμαρ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ τοὺς καταλελειμμένους Τὴν κεφαλὴν ὑμῶν οὐκ ἀποκιδαρώσετε καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν οὐ διαρρήξετε, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνητε καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν συναγωγὴν ἔσται θυμός· οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ὑμῶν πᾶς ὁ οἶκος Ισραηλ κλαύσονται τὸν ἐμπυρισμόν, ὃν ἐνεπυρίσθησαν ὑπὸ κυρίου.

Why Was Moses Persuaded? – Moral Answers

· Leviticus 4 & 6 are needed to understand the story in Leviticus 10

· Sin offerings were sometimes eaten & sometimes completely burned:

· Lev_6:30 WEB No sin offering, of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting [CAB: tabernacle of witness] to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be eaten: it shall be burned with fire.

· Trapp: “a mistake there was easy and probable, because that matter might seem something doubtful, by reason of two laws concerning it seemingly contrary, the one Lev_4:21, where it is to be burned, the other Lev_6:26, where it was to be eaten. But they are thus reconciled: It was to be burnt when the blood of this sacrifice was brought into the holy place, Lev_4:16,17; and when that was not done, which Aaron this first time could not do, for the reason expressed in Lev_10:18, it was to be eaten, and here lay their mistake.”

· Constable: “If the blood was smeared inside the tent of meeting, the animal's carcass was burned outside the camp (Lev_4:1-21). If, however, the blood was smeared on the altar of burnt offering outside the tent of meeting, the priests were entitled to eat the meat (Lev_6:11”

· Gill: “The Jews say (u), an high priest may offer, being a mourner, but not eat; a common priest may neither offer nor eat; and which they illustrate by this passage, that Aaron offered and did not eat, but his sons did neither.
(u) Misn. Horayot, c. 3. sect. 5. Maimon. & Bartenora in ib.”

· This adapted priestly practice of not eating sacrifices while mourning seems to have answered this question and was solidified in the Scriptures as well as Jewish tradition.

· Eating Prohibitions if Mourning: Deu_12:7, Deu_12:18; Deu_26:14; 1Sa_1:7-8; Hos_9:4

The Real Summary of Moses’ Persuasion

Other date(s); 8/6/22

So many people blunder when describing what actually happened in Leviticus 10, but now that obedience brings in the missing moral puzzle pieces, we can much more gladly say what happened:

· Moses says: we need to correctly keep up with this propitiation procedure (and priestly consecration) despite the death of your brothers.

· Aaron says: yet wouldn't a father's mourning state / sorrow invalidate the acceptance of eating the sacrifice, which would presumably be a package deal if his children were to eat it, since it's supposed to be the priest & his household who eats... they went as far as they possibly could morally in initially offering the sacrifice, and they & we were morally prevented by death from going further.

· Moses addresses Aaron’s children, but Aaron steps in and essentially includes himself and somewhat (implicitly) points out both (A) his necessary inclusion as the high priest and house-hold father, and (B) (even more explicitly) his invalidating status to eat.

· On one hand eating is required, but on the other hand it is unavailable in this case due to the required inclusion of a mourning father who cannot happily lead his children in eating the holy food of the sacrifices.

· We see that holy duties that are fundamentally required must not be carried out when we can’t do them in a holy way.

· If there was any question at all about a mourner eating holy food, this story answered it.

· If there was any question at all if the sin offering would become unclean by eating it with sorrow and mourning, Aaron asked the question and Moses answered it by confirming that Aaron was also right and understood correctly that the sorrow of mourning would have made the sin offering unacceptable.

· We see that Moses was fundamentally right, but was also persuadable when additional holiness and acceptableness considerations where reverently communicated .

Aaron's Virtues that Persuaded Moses

· Reverence

· Holiness

· Sacredness

· Purity

· “Brotherhood” – Loving Moses enough to communicate (see: Lev_19:17-18; Mat_18)

· Meek Gentle patience to endure with communication

· Mindfulness

· Meticulousness

· Attention to Detail

· Logic

· Obedience - to what God had previously told Moses

· Agreeing with God in the execution of his own two sons (giving glory to God and validating the righteousness of his holy decisions/judgment calls)

Persuasion to Imitation

· The need for us to imitate these Bible heroes is the exact same principle and fundamental need as our need to imitate the good in each other (comp. Heb_6:12; Heb_13:7).

· More than 80% of our corporate hang-ups could easily be fixed overnight by simple admiration and faithful imitation.

· Why have we sometimes still been hard to persuade to the point that imitation might not even be on the horizon?

· It is an unbearable failure when people have good things among us and others of us have sometimes been so dense that we haven’t harvested the opportunity to improve.

· The Creator has placed valuable things in each of us in various ways and in various degrees.

· How dare we prefer or own wrong above another's right?

· 'Why not rather risk being wronged' (1Co_6:7) rather than being wrong?

· If we are easily persuaded by value, that is, if we actually Love each other reasonably, then we can very easily be persuaded by the good which God has placed in each other and imitate it so that we all reciprocate and grow into something amazing and Truly Loving on the earth.

The Point: The Virtue of Good Persuasion is proven by the faithfulness of Loving imitation.

Virtue Shows How to Persuade

Review Questions from Our Persuasion Examples

Other date(s) (below); 8/20/22-8/21/22

· How do we know who is right and who has the greater need to be persuaded and change?
(think: Virtue! think: Abigale!)

· If your both right, then what did Aaron and Abigale do to persuade their heroes?

· Virtue Example Reminders: they displayed logic, gave new info, agreed with God & righteous zeal, and they admired, validated, and persuaded their heroes.

· What are some root issues and basic principle sins Nabal did when failing to be persuaded by Truth?

Not all good persuasion requires the same amount of virtue nor does it always need to be displayed in the same ways, but the more Davidic and Mosaic someone gets by being zealous for the Truth of what God says, the more the speaker is indebted to display mightier virtue to persuade them. The more fundamentally right someone is, the more you need to validate that righteousness in order to endorse good persuasion and win with God and man when you speak to them.

Who’s Right and Who’s Wrong?

8/21/22

Are You Both Right, or is One Person More Right than the Other?

· Persuasion is often needed weather your both right or if one is more right than the other.

· When you’re facing friction, either it's an Aaron and Moses or it’s a David and Nabal scenario (to whatever degree).

· Either your both right or one is more right and the other is more wrong (to whatever degree it is not a “hybrid scenario”).

· If you're both right, then typically the resolution comes of its own strength in the virtue of both parties, but if one has a problem and another really does have a solution, then this can call for more critical thinking...

· So… How do you know who’s right and who’s wrong in such a case as this?

The Point: It is easier to persuade when both parties are right in different ways, but if it is otherwise, then we need to test ourselves with much more diligence and integrity.

Knowledge Management Reminders

· We all know that we have to be slow and patient to listen carefully to each other so we can determine what is real Truth.

· We all know that assumptions can blind our eyes and what seemed to be true at one moment can suddenly flip around when the veil is removed from our hearts, and in this sense…

· We need to always be prepared to be well persuaded as soon as new information is presented to us, as long as it has real knowledge/Truth.

· We need to always help each other remember to reverence each other because no matter how real something feels and no matter how vivid the impression of knowledge might be, all of us are very capable (and some of us are particularly close) to uncovering deeper and more excellent knowledge.

· Our experiences are temporary by default, and it takes quite a bit of courage and integrity to determine if our perceptions are actually indeed canonical.

· Every person is responsible for his or her own knowledge to determine if it is True or not, and to test it with integrity.

· No one is allowed to carelessly move forward and not care enough to test their own knowledge/impressions to see if they are True or false.

· No one is allowed to boast of knowledge that they do not really/Truly have.

· You should only be zealous for knowledge when you have been charged to do so.

· We should always guard our hearts with the utmost excellence and integrity, giving preference and making space for others to introduce us to the newer knowledge of Truth.

· While many issues are extremely fine-tuned when it comes to the internal integrity to manage, check, and judge our inner thoughts, yet there are some practical and concrete external checkpoints that we can embrace with scientific integrity to get us closer to the Truth in a somewhat swifter way...

The Point: Let’s stop all laziness with ourselves (let’s shun lazy thinking and complacent tolerance of errors in our thoughts) and always abound in patience toward each other and be diligent to determine who has excellence and who needs persuasion.

So what virtue and excellence are we supposed to be looking for, and how can we determine Truth in a more swift way?

Virtue Reminders

· Be sure to be asking for those Old paths (Jer_6:16).

· Be sure to be admiring those more excellent values.

· Be sure not to be gullible and brainwashed by the convenience and fast-paced hypnotism of our fake, rich, and indulgent culture and age...

· So how do you know who is right and who is wrong?

· Who is humble?
Who is meek?
Who is gentle?
Who is Loving?
Who is subtle and wise?
Who is going against the grain of the flesh and chopping a different path?
Who has denied the hypnotism and status quo, and thought of a more excellent way with the help of the wind from heaven?
Who has displayed Divinely righteous virtue?

· Once you know who is more right and who is more wrong, then you can consider how, who, and in what way people need to be well persuaded.

· Now you finally have a chance to really watch and consider and measure, and sink your teeth deep into the phenomena and virtue of being well persuaded...

· Now we have a measuring scenario to observe the virtue and obligate the need of good persuasion.

· Now it is actually orthodox to wish for someone to be persuaded, because now you know where Truth is at -- and that’s the only way it can be “good” to be persuaded.

The Point: Have integrity. Insist on excellence. Be diligent with Truth (to determine & know it). Display Virtue. Be honest and be persuaded by Truth.

Have scientific integrity to know who’s right and who’s wrong, and never be slow to be persuaded when Truth is offered to help you be corrected.

Disarrangements – Resolving vs. Accommodating Disarrangements with Persuasion

Let’s make some serious progress on our journey to finally understanding this virtue of being well-persuaded.

We’ve looked at what good persuasion is and now we need to also contrast it with what it is not in order to perceive this virtue more clearly and distinctly, and to obtain it more accurately in all mighty excellence and surpassingly infinite moral success.

How Good vs. Bad Persuasion Handles Disarrangements

· Good persuasion is about resolving disarrangements, not accommodating them.

· Good persuasion ≈ faith in the Truth.

· Persuasion toward bad ≈ accommodating disarrangements ≠ good persuasion.

· Don’t seek bad persuasion to believe bad, but good Persuasion to believe good, which also fixes the bad.

Beware when: You skipped the prerequisites of integrity and assumed you were further along than you really were!

The Troubles of Disarrangements

Other date(s); 8/15/22; 8/19/22

· A troubled, disarranged, and unaware person might accidentally speak unto ‘subverting the hearers’ (2Ti_2:14 *), yet they ought to always thank God and the kind and righteous person whomever might lift them up to a more excellent perception and understanding, since simply accommodating them by pretending persuasion usually just strengthens and promotes more disarrangement and untrue vanity.

· Disarrangements sabotage communication, and accommodating them creates confusion and promotes vain drama with no purpose or end, and disqualifies the participants from righteous persuasion, and keeps everyone involved away from the Truth.

· Disarrangements must be addressed and fixed, not ignored, accommodated, tolerated, pampered, or praised.

· Does all of this go without saying or do people’s actions really show that they really don’t know or believe what we’ve just said?

>>>

* 2Ti_2:14 LSV Remind [them] of these things, testifying fully before the LORD—not to strive about words to nothing profitable, but to the subversion* of those hearing; [* Mat_21:12-13,Mar_11:15-18 ]

2Ti 2:14 Ταῦτα ὑπομίμνῃσκε, διαμαρτυρόμενος ἐνώπιον τοῦ TSBΚυρίου |Aθεου| μὴ λογομαχεῖν, TSBεἰς |Aεπ| οὐδὲν χρήσιμον, ἐπὶ καταστροφῇ τῶν ἀκουόντων.

Careful Humility Mitigates the Troubles of Disarrangement

· By default, we all have disarrangements in various degrees scattered in various ways and places throughout our souls.

· When interfacing with our disarrangements we are considering a range of possible concerns depending on how much trouble we have, and where these problems are located in our souls.

· Lacking understanding and needing to talk through it is not a disarrangement (by default), but promoting/endorsing illogical and non-virtuous thoughts is a concerning trouble.

· While we recognize that we're not complete yet and we still have problems, we can at least be very ambitious to not promote those problems upon other people while we eagerly seek to fix all things.

Who Needs Persuasion?

· Among disciples, the speaker hopes the listener will be well-persuaded by the virtue they delight them with, but the speaker does NOT want the listener to like, accommodate, or tolerate any of the disarrangements they have.

· If a speaker has disarrangements, then the primary need for persuasion flips back on the initial speaker, not the listener.

· When the speaker lacks the valid necessary requirements mandated for logically and virtuously persuading others, then the one who first thought to persuade others should pause, back up, fear the Truth, and first reverently labor to be persuaded themselves.

· The Blind cannot lead the blind.

· The beam-eyed cannot help fix and heal the speck-eyed.

· It risks hypocrisy to wish for others to be persuaded if you’re still wrong somewhere (to that same degree).

· Those in probation who struggle to employ virtue in their speech should first beg for redemption before being happy to contaminate others.

· A speaker may indeed have some valid points to make when it comes to some of the surface-level issues and considerations at hand, but if they can’t address and present them with virtue then they don’t know where they’re right and where they’re wrong, and this calls for a lot of humility and carefulness, to say the least.

· Any advantage that a straying person has is in spite of them (not because of them), and their advantage is out of their control.

· It is safe to ask others to help you sort through your perceptions and blind spots, but it is presumptuous to wish for them to change before you have been corrected.

· Desiring for others to be persuaded when a speaker is in an unhealthy state is inappropriate, premature, and hazardous!

· Those who are wrong Truly need persuasion the most.

· Do not hypocritically entangle those who are right into your own need to be persuaded.

Self-Quarantining Disarrangements & Welcoming Help

· The one who speaks while still yet being in need of virtue ought to be the first to recognize their need, and greatly welcome any and all help which is at all possible, and never seek or wish for the non-virtuous persuasion of others who are more arranged than themselves.

· Don’t groan in the flesh under the curse of the Law when you ought to fear God and welcome your salvation!

· Don’t wish to prove anything to anyone who is more qualified to save you than you are, especially and particularly when it is actually time for you to first be enlightened.

The Point: Recognize your need and give thanks to those who help you.

Imitate Zeal, Don’t “Persuade” It!

· Admire, imitate, & be persuaded by righteous zeal against wrong.

· Don’t try or wish to persuade clean zeal to change, since you yourself should know very well that you desperately need its Truth to be saved!

· Persuade righteous people by first admiring and validating their righteous zeal and only when or after you have done justice to it, can you then seek an even more authenticating persuasion for the righteous by giving them new and non-contradictory information.

· You can change someone’s information without contradicting their clean zeal, and every righteous person will happily be persuaded by this.

· Persuade a righteous person’s information with more Truth and he will thank you, but if you disagree with their zeal God will step back from you.

· Notice with Moses and David that they had real reasons to be wrathful or angry at first.

· Moses was zealous for the Word of God and David was fundamentally and socially required and compelled to punish the intolerable hazards & danger of Nabal’s outrageous perversion & disarrangements (comp. Tit_1:11, etc. *).

· Righteous people have real, weighty, and serious reasons to be zealous for others to be persuaded by the Divine Truth they speak and represent.

· Nabal greatly owed fear* and faith to David but refused persuasion and was eventually & inevitably destroyed. [see INSP] <<<

· Aaron and Abigale acknowledged their indebtedness, subjection, and lowered state and saved themselves as well as many others, on top of successfully persuading their righteous and admired heroes.

· Clean people don’t hate God by insulting Divine zeal!
(…and we see this so powerfully when considering such important examples such as these.)

· Moses’, David’s, and Abigale’s persuasion all stand in direct contrast and opposition to the danger of promoting/stimulating/fostering/defending disarrangements and creating our own non-canonical & uninspired drama and accommodating vanity.

· Don’t endorse your disarrangements like Nadab and Abihu, nor defend the mistakes or blunders of your disarrangements like Nabal, but fix them and even make atonement for others like Abigale and Aaron did, and praise and imitate the righteous persuasions and clean zeal of Moses and David.

Meaningful Drama

· The Creator has sovereignly assigned frictions in all of our important relationships to draw out meaningful discussions/conversations that change us and glorify God by patiently accomplishing Wisdom and virtue in us.

· God-ordained drama calls us to question our assumptions, embrace mighty logic to talk through things with each other, gain real knowledge we never knew was there, reaffirm courageous humility to always prefer the Truth over our own souls, and embrace the romance of always changing to integrate more of each other’s Truth into our lives.

· We grow in eternal rewards when we are faithful and wise to find Truth in our assigned dramas.

· We Love each other more when we sacrifice to integrate each other deeper into our lives by the Truth through our assigned dramas, and we obtain a more weighty Divine Unity as a reward.

Vain Drama – Patience or Accommodation?

Other date(s); 9/3/22

· Vain drama is when we create our own unassigned drama from our own disarrangements, and is based on confusing misunderstandings and completely unneeded conflicts with no point.

· Assigned dramas are from heaven but vain ones are from the world & hell beneath it.

· Assigned drama comes in spite of virtue and integrity, and it produces good.

· Vain drama comes from character flaws, and it produces bad.

· We should not take untruth at face value.

· Since vain drama is inherently untrue and not assigned to us from heaven, we are not responsible for “fixing” it (we are not related to non-reality), and it does not profit men nor honor God when we are preoccupied by it.

· Vain drama does not (validly/Truthfully) obligate us to “fix” unreal conflicts that happened in the fantasy of confusion.

· Vain drama needs to be exposed, confessed, corrected, and replaced with Truth before you can honor and improve your real relationships.

· Good persuasion is extremely patient with necessary drama, and yet, at the same time it does not create its own unnecessary vain drama or accommodate it in others.

· Vain drama & disarrangements need correction, not faith (or “persuasion”).
(At first you might like to think this goes without saying, but you can’t take that for granted based on how seriously people take confusion and vain, fiction-based conflicts, and how much they want everyone else to do the same.)

· Valid patience strengthens virtue to obtain good-persuasion, especially after disarrangements are corrected and Truth comes to the surface.

· Patience and good-persuasion with ordained drama fixes problems and facilitates Divine Unity.

· Accommodating vain drama deepens problems and reinforces confusion.

· Accommodation and virtuous persuasion are opposites, so you have to choose one or the other.

· Accommodation and virtuous persuasion are direct opponents in a battle for your attention, faith, and persuasion, so that they trade off of each other. – The more you choose the one the more you give up on and oppose the other.

· Vain drama is often a decoy which necessarily competes with the patience to communicate through ordained drama which the Creator has assigned unto us.

· Accommodating vain drama does not fix any root problems but only distracts, entangles, and preoccupies people in untruth and hinders and pushes them away from fulfilling their real mission of virtuous and excellent communication through real Love.

· Accommodating vain drama is so far from solving problems that it actually risks validating them, which can actually strengthen them to proliferate and keep multiplying so that no one ever gets any Truth accomplished.

· If you create or accommodate unneeded empty vain drama, it does not help you be patient with the real drama which The Creator has assigned unto you, but rather it actually hinders Logic, which is one of the valid prerequisite virtues for accomplishing clean excellent persuasion, and without such virtue you cannot Truly and Lovingly be patient with anyone with enough clean faith to fix or glorify any of your important relationships.

· Meek gentle patience is (of course) always required by all disciples even when vain drama is at hand, but humble patience and persuasion are especially required from the one in danger of endorsing vanity, even more than the listener.

When you fail to quarantine your own disarrangements and don’t get help early enough, you risk piling confusion on top of your relationships. Then the legitimate drama which The Creator has assigned unto you is buried under the weight and distraction of misunderstandings and inevitable conflicts, and preoccupies everyone with managing completely unneeded and useless drama instead of actually working on obtaining Truth and qualitatively improving their Divine Unity & virtuous agreement.

How to Take Action Against Vain Drama

· Deal with disarrangements.

· Oppose confusion.

· Refuse vain drama – Expose, convict, repent, heal, and correct it.

· Get help first, and don’t demand / seek / request / wish for (bad) persuasion in the meantime.

· Beg for correction and give thanks when it is finally given.

· Accredit righteousness to those who hold you accountable to reality, don’t risk incriminating them as though they lack good persuasion.

Be zealous to fix your disarrangements!

Do the exact opposite of The flesh!

Solving Disarrangements with Orthodox Persuasion

· The solution to vain drama is not accommodation and non-virtuous persuasion.

· The solution to vain drama is for the performer to first be persuaded by virtue and Truth, and then all parties involved can move forward together in Divine Unity to be mutually persuaded by the same Truth.

· We all need to cooperate with virtue so that we can all be persuaded by Truth in the right order without hypocrisy or accidentally validating vanity in the process.

· Being well-persuaded is a mighty virtue of all the great patriarchs and matriarchs of Monotheism, and we all need to successfully and sufficiently participate in this same cleanness long before wishing to call it out of others.

Confusing Lust for Love

3/29/22-3/30/22; 4/3/22

Confusing Lust for Love will make you do all kinds of crazy things and sometimes you won't even realize all the insanity you have done until a Monotheist retells the story in an orderly accurate and True way.

Confusing love as with the story of Samson can get your divine favor and mission ruined and your hair cut off and your eyes plucked out, and even that's in a best case scenario...

Most church people never have any clue if God ever withdraws from them because He was never notably close to them in the first place to begin with, unlike Samson...

V Summary:

Confusing Lust for Love can be your spiritual downfall, (assuming you had anything good going for you to begin with)

Mar_6:12 – Proclaiming that they should repent
Mar_6:13 – Throwing out demons & healing with oil

Mark 6 Considerations

· We’ve got to promote & proclaim repentance / a testimony (Mar_6:11-12)!

· Notice: Dust-shaking testimony against unreceptive/unloving world/cities (Mar_6:11).

· Do we need to have a testimony against the lovelessness of the world in the meantime, even before they try to kill us?

· Aren’t they already excommunicating us, or at least very ready to do so?

· Warning: Jesus sent 2 by 2 to heal, but the 2 sent in the end-times (and all who follow them) are bringing plagues instead of healing.

· Won’t the end-times world hate the righteous who plague them even more than the persecuted righteous who healed them during New Testament times?

· If they killed those who healed them, how much more worse will they hate and murder those who plague them, even after the righteous have all agreed with God who punishes them for all of their worldly madness, pride, and crimes?

Luke 9 – Summary & Analysis

12 Sent Miraculously Proclaiming & Testifying Against Unreceptive Cities

Luk_9:1 – 12 given power & authority over all demons & sicknesses
Luk_9:2 – Sent to proclaim & heal
Luk_9:3 – Don’t take extra (for journey)
Luk_9:4 – 1 house per city
Luk_9:5 – Shake off dust against unreceptive people (as a testimony)
Luk_9:6 – They were going, proclaiming, & healing

Luke 9 Considerations

· Notice: Dust-shaking testimony (again)

· Luke 9 = sending the 12

· Luke 10 = sending the 70

Luke 10 Summary & Analysis

70 Sent Proclaiming & Testifying Against Unreceptive Cities

Luk_10:1 – 70 others sent out
Luk_10:2 – Abundant harvest, few workers, pray for help

Think: you got to practice what you preach, & even incl. what you pray for!
Luk_10:3 – Sent as lambs among wolves* [* Mat_10:16; Luk_10:3]
Luk_10:4 – Don’t take extra
Luk_10:5 – Say “Peace” to hosting house
Luk_10:6 – Peace rests with son of peace, but otherwise returns to you
Luk_10:7 – Worthy* workman [1Ti_5:17-18; 1Co_9:4-14] must remain in that (receptive) house [* comp. Mat_10:10-11, Mat_10:37-38; Luk_10:7-8]

[remain in house, eating, drinking, the things they have]…

Lidia* = Worthy house for Delegated Proclaimers
* Act_16:11-15 (esp. v. Act_16:14-15), Act_16:40

Luk_10:8 – Eat what's set before you in receptive city [1Co_10:27]

Luk_10:9 – Heal & announce Kingdom Nearness

Luk_10:10 – Go in the broad places of unreceptive city and verbally...

Luk_10:11 – Dust/wipe off against them, affirming Kingdom Nearness

Luk_10:12 – Sodom's Judgement more tolerable than unreceptive city

Luk_10:13 – Woe to Chorazin & Bethsaida vs Tyre & Sidon [Mat_11:20-22; Luk 10:13]

Luk_10:14 – Tyre & Sidon's judgment more tolerable

Luk_10:15 – "Capernaum... brought down to Hades" (LSV)

Luk_10:16 – Hearing or rejecting of 70 = Doing the same to Jesus & His Sender [comp. Luk_10:16; Joh_15:20, etc.]

Luke 10 Considerations

· Lots of proclamation is needed! (Luk_10:1-2)

· The 12 were sent with power (Luk_9:1-2) & 70 also had power when proclaiming (Luk_10:9; Luk_10:17-20)

· Notice: “wolves” (Luk_10:3) – the violent hostility of the unbelieving world…

· What they do to proclaimers = what they do to God (Luk_10:16; Joh_15:20, etc.)

· Dust-shaking testimony (again) & it’s much longer this time (Luk_10:10-16)

Matthew 10 – Don’t Fear Persecution & Murder, But Testify from Inspired Delegation

Worthiness, Testimony, Betrayal, Murder, Hatred, Persecution, No Fear, Cross, Inspired Delegation

Matthew 10 Basic Considerations

· Matthew 10’s sending out is the most thorough account.

· Matthew 10’s sending out includes the end-times warnings that carry over into Matthew 24’s Temple-Destruction Prophecy, and these same predicted hostile attitudes are still going on until this day until the end.

· Hatred is very potently seen in Matthew 10 (as seen below & in Murderous-Betrayal Considerations).

Chiastic Structural* Pattern of Matthew 10

· (A) Mat_10:1-16 – Delegated Apostles & Receptive People = Worthy

· (B) Mat_10:16-25 – Persecution from Family & the World

· (C) Mat_10:26-33 – Don’t fear* their Murder [* repeated 3 times]

· (B) Mat_10:32-39 – Truth wars against relationships with your Family & the World

· (A) Mat_10:40-42 – Receiving Delegated Apostles = Receiving God & Un-losable Reward

[* Chiastic Structure ≈ ABC-C'B'A']

The Point: Don’t Fear Wolves ¹⁶ who Betray ^{17 18 21}, Whip ¹⁷, Hate ²², Murder ^{21
28 38}, & Persecute ²³, as Enemies -- incl. the World & even Family.

Did anyone notice how hateful and unloving the world is according to Matthew 10?

Don’t we need to drastically change our default attitude toward our family & the world?

“Don’t Fear” Begins with “Don’t Trust”

“Don’t Trust” = implied by “having caution from that of men”

Furthermore, “Don’t fear” comes from the root issue of “don’t believe or trust” or “don’t even be persuaded by”, which is exactly what Matthew 10 is quoting:

Matthew 10’s “Family vs. Family”

Mat_10:35-36 LSV for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, 36 and the enemies of a man are those of his household.

Micah 7’s “Family vs. Family”

Mic_7:1-7 -- READ!

· Mic_7:1 – I gather food, but can’t eat

· Mic_7:2 – No reverent people left, only criminal murderers

· Mic_7:3 – their hands are on the evil lusts of their souls

· Mic_7:4 – a day of vengeance comes against them

· Mic_7:5 – Don’t trust [καταπιστεύετε] or hope [ἐλπίζετε] in [ἐν…ἐπὶ] warm-liked-friends [φίλοις]

· Mic_7:6 – Family vs. Family (Mat_10:35-37 = Mic_7:6)

· Mic_7:7 – Instead, look to God of Salvation

Fear Temptations

· Losing power & influence

· Losing their warm-liked-friendship

The Root Point: Believing, Trusting, Marveling, or being persuaded by the world will trap you in their fear and eventual murder.

Trusting the World = Fearing the World

Don’t marvel at the harlot, or believe, trust, or at all be persuaded by the World, and then you won’t have to fear them when they surprise the unwise and unprepared virgins with their murderous hatred and persecution (Mat_25).

Luke’s Preceding End-Times Context

Luk_12:1-12, Luk_12:35-53 – Don’t Fear, but Confess; Be Ready; Fire & Family Division

>> read

· Coverings/sayings revealed on housetops

· Don’t fear body killers

· Confessors before men = winners before God

· Unforgivable sin

· Don’t be anxious what to say

· [side track?: Divide an inheritance?]

· Loins girded

· Ready for Lord after wedding

· Be watching & ready to immediately open the door

· Master will gird & serve the servants

· Watching householder would prevent thief

· Unknown hr of coming / returning

· Servant Delegated over house

· Promoted over goods

· Sinning servant expects delay

· Cut in two [Mat_24:51; Luk_12:46]

· Many stripes vs few stripes -- beaten according to knowledge

· Much committed, much required

· Throw fire on the earth (but a baptism is needed first)

· No peace, but division

· Family vs Family -- divided

Luke 12 – Peace & Love, Counterpart Considerations

· Would Jesus take peace away from peace-loving people?

· Would Jesus divide family members who had real Love that was sacred and valuable enough to be worth preserving?

· The destruction of the world’s peace and family relationships directly correlates with our testimony against them and it shows the real peace and real Love that Jesus gives, unlike what the world gives.

· The fiery destruction of the World’s pseudo-virtues = a harsh judgement and rejection of its lies and deception.

· Our testimony against the World justifies God who destroys its lies.

Luk_17:22-37 – Forsake the Deceived & Destroyed World to Save Your Soul

· Don’t compromise when missing Anointed One

· Sanctify your patient waiting for Lightening-like appearance

· Anointed One’s suffering = required first

· End-times ≈ Days of Noah & Lot

· No retrieval of possessions – remember lots wife!

· Soul savers: lose. Soul losers: save.

· 1 taken. 1 left

· Where body, there eagles/vultures

The Point: Think Exclusivity to forsake all and escape the world & it’s destruction.

Matthew 24 Compared with Other Predicted Hatred

· “abounding” [τὸ πληθυνθῆναι ^V-APN] ·of the lawlessness ≈ “the many [πολλῶν (NIV: most)] ·will become cold [ψυγήσεται ^V-2FPI-3S – will be blown/breathed/soul-ed cold]”

· “Many” is repeated in this passage.

· The “Many” [πολλῶν] who are cold ≈ those “many” entering the wide gate to destruction in Mat_7:13-27 (same Greek).

· Compare this coldness (against disciples in Mat_24:12) with the “Disciple-Hatred [μισεῖ]” & murder in the sending out of the Apostles & in Joh_15:19 & murder in Joh_16:1-2 -- despite their fake worldly benefits of “warm-liking [ἐφίλει]” themselves…

· These haters are called warm-liked-friends in Mic_7 & Mat_10, etc.

· Was the world’s warmth ever worth it to begin with if it ends up being such a cold hatred that it could kill you in the end?

Matthew 24 – Lovelessness Notes

· You’re supposed to “love one another” (John, 1^st John, etc.), but instead,

· They are “betraying one another” (Mat_24:9-10).

· Apostates are hating, betraying, & killing disciples in the end times. (see above)

· The core relationship on how disciples are supposed to cherish one another is totally perverted by scandaling apostasy [σκανδαλισθήσονται] (Mat_24:10) in the end [τὸ τέλος] times (Mat_24:14).

The Point: Disciples get Betrayal, Tribulation, Killing, Unanimous Hatred ^Mat^_^24:^9-10, betrayal & hatred by apostates ^Mat^_^24:¹⁰, & Cold love ^Mat^_^24:¹² by the lawless world – does anyone see yet that the world does NOT have any real Love at all for you, especially if you’re a disciple?

The “Visitations” of Saving Love vs. the Condemnation of Sinning Goats
Jonathan, Nabal, Matthew 25, and the Goats who are Still Sinning the Same Way Unto This Day!

~6/30/22; 7/2/22

· It is relatively easy for a moral person to illustrate Matthew 25, although…

· almost nobody is moral so their attempts at “convicting” people with “the Sheep & the Goats” usually proves quite inadequate/shallow/hollow/pathetic, like the Legendary “Pastor[s] [who] Disguises Himself as Homeless Man”* (which can often center around Matthew 25)

· Psa_34:4-6 – this poor man cried and the Lord answered

· The REAL “Poor man” is David (even after he became king)

· 1Sa_23:14-16 – Jonathan visits David in the wilderness

· Is that real love I see from Jonathan?

· 1Sa_25:10, etc. – Nabal: ‘who is David that I should help him?’

· How do these contrasting attitudes/postures/responses compare with Matthew 25?

· Mat_25:36, Mat_25:43 – when in prison, you visited me (or didn’t)

· When you’re Moses, they claim faith in Abraham, when you’re David they praise Moses, when you’re Jesus they praise Abraham Moses and David but not you, when your Paul they praise Jesus but not you… there’s always an excuse to sin like Nabal against the righteous, and this hypocrisy is surprisingly predictable and consistent throughout the entire Bible unto this very day, which is exactly why Matthew 25’s Judgement is a surprise to virtually all apostates and hypocrites!

· I have been left for dead to rot in the wilderness with, of course, virtually no loving visitors…

· They won't so much as visit me/us when I've/we've been kicked out of a church, much less would they visit me if I was thrown in a prison!

· Based on the SOM & Matthew 25, it has very clearly been revealed who the sheep and the goats are, because ‘by their obedience-fruit (and disobedient lack thereof) you will know them’.

>>> unhide

The Point: Worldly antichrist apostates will hate, betray, & murder obeyer-Disciples* in Matthew 24 (Temple Destruction Prophecy), and they are held directly guilty as cursed goats in Matthew 25. The crimes of the goats against all disciple-oberyers throughout history are harshly condemned as crimes committed directly against the Glorious King who now Judges them in the Great and Glorious Day of the Judgement.

Beware lest we share with them too much and become unprepared virgins who are shut out and thrown out as worthless servants in the end at His coming!

[* The murdered disciples in CH 24 are called “sheep” and “my brothers” in CH 25. “Brothers” = hear-obeyers throughout the Gospels.]

Stop Ignoring Subtle Hatred & Murder

Murderous-Betrayal Considerations

· When you indirectly cause someone to be harmed/damaged/killed (2Sa_11:14-26), you are guilty of their bloodshed, with blood on your hands, just as if you were the one who has directly killed/murdered them (2Sa_12:9; Psa_51:14; & comp. Deu_22:8!)

· Remember: Ahab's plot & guilt when murdering Naboth for his vineyard: 1Ki_21:1-16

· Remember: how Judas* betrayed Jesus and remember how guilty Judas felt when ending his life? -- which is a very relevant element of this passage & this betrayal theme: [* Mat_10:4 (Judas), Mat_10:16-18 (wolves), Mat_10:21 (Family)]

· Judas, Wolves, & Family -- consider the parallelism!

· Those who warm-like-friend you now will betray and kill you later (Luk_21:16)

· Even though the Bible warns of such things as subtle murder, ironically people almost intentionally proactively energetically ignore these warnings and testimonies and exalt themselves in lazy naivety, pride, and strength as though such things don’t matter, and are not wrong, and are not a danger right now.

· Why darken and drown your conscience and procrastinate responsibility and pretend that such dangers are only a potential far away in the future when they're happening right now?

· One of the ways people justify killing you to ease their own evil murderous conscience is by simply “delivering you up” so that someone else actually carries out the murderous crime.

· Subtle/indirect murder often happens when you ignore the consequences of your perverse treachery against other humans.

· Subtle murder is still murder – you are still a cold-blooded murderer with blood on your hands, even if you make excuses, cheat, and avoid the appearance of what you actually did.

· It is high time someone finally took responsibility for the outcomes of their actions and stopped the mass murder running rampant today in hordes of unethical perverted unchecked popular criminal activity.

· Yes, indeed, it gets REALLY bad in the end-times, but even now we can already see this treachery in those who subtly betray disciples right now.

· When the worst comes out of people in the end times, it was already there before the extreme pressure forced them to take such extreme positions.

· Subdued hatred is seen in the world’s subtle murder in the meantime.

· Subdued hatred will become overt hatred just as their subtle murder will become full blown persecution and murder in the end.

· Subdued hatred will eventually come out much more overtly in times of persecution from those who are willing to commit subtle murder in the meantime.

· The people who act friendly now will end up killing you in the end-times.

· They think they are just conforming and keeping up with the world’s and society’s rules (and that those rules are justifiable and right), but they are actually hating you enough to kill you / cause you to be killed. -- they treacherously ignore and forget that the very fact that they are killing you in the process of their conformity, compliance, complacency, and lazy thinking absolutely proves that their perverted social norms are outrageously evil and murderous!

· If you know that the World truly hates you so much that even “warm-liked friends” will kill you, is it safe or even lawful to friend the World? (see/remember: Jas_4:4 -- discussed above)

Sirach – Cheating the Poor & Laborer = Bloodshed

Sir_34:24 Like the man who slays a son in his father’s presence

is he who offers sacrifice from the possessions of the poor.

25 The bread of charity is life itself for the needy;

he who withholds it is a man of blood.

26 He slays his neighbor who deprives him of his living:

27 he sheds blood who denies the laborer his wages.

Beware of Hatred & Testify Now, Without Compromise

Other date(s); 6/25/22-6/26/22

· The Sending out of the 12 & 70 shows that testimony against the hateful world is required/needed, starting right now.

· Those who do not recognize the inspired delegation of worthy laboring apostles are actually themselves not worthy, as seen in Act_13:45-46.

· Unworthy unbelief = Hatred and ultimate murder

· The same (hateful) unworthy unbelievers will persecute and even murder disciples.

· Testimony is required before during and after their persecution and ultimate murder.

· “All” (the World) hates disciples, esp. in the end* times (τέλος – Mat_10:22 ; Mar_13:13).

· The “all” who “hate” even includes family, warm-liked friends, etc.

· Hatred (Mat_10:22; Mar_13:13; Luk_21:17; Joh_15:17-27) = Persecution & Murder (Mat_10:16, Mat_10:21, Mat_10:28; Mar_13:12; Luk_21:16; Joh_15:20-21; Joh_16:1-2)
(as also seen in 1Jo_3:15*)

· Enduring [ὑπομείνας] (Mar_13:13/Luk_21:19) under [ὑπὸ] their hatred ·into a complete perfection [εἰς τέλος] = being saved (Mar_13:13) = No Hair-Perishing (Luk_21:18; Mat_10:29-31)

· Though their murderous hatred kills us, yet Jesus assures us of complete salvation if we endure their crimes and keep agreeing with the Truth until we are perfected.

· We need lots of courage and encouragement to not fear and courageously face the hostile persecuting violent murderous world that is out there.

· Antichrist Deception abounds in the end times.

· If they lie so much that they will hate, persecute and kill you, can anyone seriously believe the world when they say they have any real “love” at all for anyone?

· Expose the deception. Testify against the Lovelessness that is aimed at murder.

· Don’t compromise your integrity toward this Truth about them, but expose their deception as much as possible, so that you will never have to fear or be intimidated by their hate & persecution that comes out later in the end.

Saved From Fear, Holy-ified into Real Love

· Perfect Love and Fear are opposed to each other.

· “the perfect love throws out the fear” (1Jo_4:18 RTA).

· The same virtue that saves you from the deception of the hateful world (and it’s fake love) is the same virtue that teaches you what Perfect Love is.

· Exclusivity is the key to holiness, and only with the value of holiness separating you from the lie of the World will you truly gain the value of Real Love for others.

· Do not defile your friendship on the loveless world, because they will lie to you with fake love and use this deception to betray you, hurt you, murder you, and throw you into fear -- which is bitter lovelessness!

· Do not prostitute your friendship on the loveless world, but holy-ify yourself to learn and actually obey Perfect Love.

QNA:

How Can a Daughter fulfill “distrusting parents” when she was designed to be loved & protected by her dad?

Answers

People aren’t “born disciples” they have to “learn” and “be trained” into it -- which is the very definition of a disciple/apprentice/learner.

1Co_15:46 - soulish, then spiritual

This principle of denying your in-born instinct is always reinforced with verses like Mat_10:38, were a cross is required (see above)

Children don’t naturally…

· Take up crosses to cooperate in their death (Mat_10:38)

· Love God more than parents (Mat_10:)

· “hate” their parents (Luk_14:25-35)

· “Distrust” their parents (Mat_10:35-37 = Mic_7:6)

Children aren’t born with the capacity to distrust their parents (which is the very opposite of their entire nature) but they have to come into that discipleship just like children aren’t born ready to take up a cross until faith disciples them into the truth that is far beyond their in-born nature.

The Point: Children are the right type of people to inherit the kingdom, but it is not by just staying children, but it is by becoming a child-disciple who believes & follows Jesus (Mat_11, 18, etc.) and has things revealed to them. It is not the nature of being a Child that is canonical, but the nature of a humbled child-disciple.

Lust-Deception Crucifixion

Crush Crucifixion • Lust Renunciation

7/1/22; 7/3/22

· If you are not interfacing with who someone really is then you don't really Love them since you don't even really know them!

· If you're unlawful lust of someone is not based on engaging who they really are called to be, then your love for them is really hollow and shallow and without any substantial basis and is fully worthy of complete crucifixion without hesitation.

· If you are not loving and cherishing the real person in the truest sense of who God has intended to save them into becoming, then you are instead worshiping the empowering spirits behind their lost sinful unsaved distorted state.

· You are not Loving them if you are preoccupied with loving the sin that is behind them!

· Cherishing someone's old man / old identity is not rejoicing or celebrating who they really are called to be, and is therefore instead celebrating and rejoicing in sin, the old man, and the dirty evil spirits who live through them.

· If you are not celebrating and cherishing who God has created them to become then you are cherishing and celebrating who the devil has perverted them to be, and when you rejoice and cherish and love the work of the devil you are cherishing and praising the one who worked it...

· Unlawful love/lust is not increasing their real value, and is therefore not real Love.

· Lust is not cherishing who someone's real value is / their new potential identity but is instead loving/cherishing evil from the old man.

· Lust is not helping save someone from sin with sacrificial selflessness sufficient enough to have insight into who they could be inside of cleanness, and it is not cherishing who they are really called to be in Anointed One.

· What should you say, and what should you pray?

· “I hate / reject personally delighting in their appeal…”

· “They may or may not have any objective appeal, but what is it to me either way since I don’t even know them?”

· “My imagined relationship with them is not real and never was / never has been, since I interacted with a fake hologram without even knowing anything truly valuable about their real potential identity.”

· This is exactly why we separate from the loveless world, since no relationships are deep and real, and they will virtually all be popped at judgement resulting in pure and sinful lies and empty vanity.

· Distracted with lies and vanity, all in the name of “relationships”, they never noticed how much sin they heaped up. Since they were so deluded, they rejoiced in what they called good, being so distracted and preoccupied they never counted how much sin they stacked up.

· Virtually all human relationships are based on deception and lies and puffing foolishness that thinks it knows people.

· When anyone’s body dies and they are raised up again their entire world view is totally changed, along with their personality and everything else that was false and vain in crafting their human experience – only REAL Love survives resurrection! Only Truth-Love still Loves someone beyond the grave!

· Delusion parades proudly with irrational confidence destroying justice before them continually, and harming all good while pushing sin along in front of them through life, interacting with other fake flesh balls who are happily agreeing with their maddened delusions, lusting upon every vain and deceptive delight, interacting with the lies that everyone else has made themselves to be, lie kisses lie while sinners slouch their souls back within themselves while blinded inside of their sinning and dead corpses, never pausing to consider the Truth or repent of their sinful glorying in vain and evil social lust and the shared praise of pagan pigs, their mutual flattery goes on, sharing the congratulations of those who are also drunk with perverse lies, and laying down at night to die in their sins, happy and content with all of the fantasies of perverse imaginations, and satiated with the lust of the company of other pigs whom they have collaborated with to destroy themselves together with hunting down every right and good thing, making progress toward their goal so that tomorrow they might slay the righteous.

· None of your sinful relationships are ever real! Not a single one will survive the grave, much less Judgement!

· ‘Real Love never falls/fails’ – and it is high time someone finally repented among the sons of men to find what in heaven that actually is!

· Beware of vanity!!! Because it is wasting your time and consuming your very life, and defrauding your relationships, and it is disqualifying you from real Love!

Jesus-Like Love -- it’s NOT Worldly!

John 13 – 15 Preview

Let’s Look at John 13 – 15 & compare it with 1^st John to see the relationship that real Love has with worldliness.

John_13:12-17 – Foot Washing

Joh_13:12-17 – Foot Washing Example Which we Should Imitate

Foot Washing = Preceding Context to Jesus-Like Love -- and it’s a foreshadowing example of it…

Joh_13:12-17 LSV ·When, therefore, [῞Οτε οὖν] He washed their feet, and took His garments, having reclined again, He said to them, ·“Do you know what I have done to you [γινώσκετε τί πεποίηκα ὑμῖν]? 13 You call Me the Teacher and the LORD, and you say well, for I am; 14 if then I washed your feet—the LORD and the Teacher—you also ought to [ὀφείλετε] wash one another’s [ὀφείλετε ἀλλήλων] feet. 15 For I gave to you ·an example [ὑπόδειγμα], that, according [καθὼς] as I did [ἐποίησα] to you, you also ·may do [ποιῆτε]; 16 truly, truly, I say to you, a servant [δοῦλος] is not greater [μείζων] than his lord [τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ], nor an apostle [ἀπόστολος N-NSM -- stationed-away/from-one / he that is sent KJV/~WEB / messenger CAB)] greater than he who sent [πέμψαντος] him; 17 if you have ~~known~~ [οἴδατε – seen / known-by-perception (≠ v. 12)] these things, you are blessed [μακάριοί], if you ·may do [ποιῆτε] them;

Abigale’s Wisdom ≈ Mary’s Love

· Consider: Abigale’s sizzling wisdom that foreshadowed & agreed with these foot washing events.

· Mary’s Foot washing = Love, “because she loved much”.

· Preview: notice the parallels with Wisdom & Love.

· Prophetic Foot Washing of Abigale & Mary = Love & Wisdom.

· Jesus = Wisdom (Abigale’s), and God = Love (Mary’s).

· Out of Love/God flows Wisdom/Jesus.

v. 14 – Obligated Love Debt of Foot Washing

Joh_13:14 LSV …you also ought to [ὀφείλετε (= Rom_13:8)] wash one another’s [ἀλλήλων (= Rom_13:8)] feet [καὶ ὑμεῖς ὀφείλετε ἀλλήλων νίπτειν τοὺς πόδας].

Joh_13:34 LSV …love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (≈ Rom_13:8)]…

Rom_13:8 LSV To no one [Μηδενὶ] owe [ὀφείλετε (= Joh_13:14)] anything [μηδὲν], except to love one another [TSBἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους· |Aἀγαπᾶν| (= Joh_13:34)]; for he who is loving the other—he has fulfilled law,

Rom_13:8 Greek Μηδενὶ μηδὲν ὀφείλετε εἰ μὴ τὸ TSBἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους· |Aἀγαπᾶν| ὁ γὰρ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἕτερον νόμον πεπλήρωκε.

Joh_13:14: indebted/“ought to” [ὀφείλετε ἀλλήλων] Foot wash = Rom_13:8: Love… debt [Μηδενὶ μηδὲν ὀφείλετε] …to… one another [ἀλλήλους]

We see that the foot washing obligation/debt in Joh_13:14 is linguistically linked with the Love obligation/debt in Rom_13:8, and we haven’t even gotten to the New Love Command in Joh_13:34 yet…

The Point: Love Foreshadowed in Foot Washing

We haven’t even officially got to the New Love Command yet and we already see foot washing linked with Love by…

· Abigale’s Wisdom ≈ Mary’s Love, and,

· “Joh_13:14 [being] linguistically linked with the Love obligation/debt in Rom_13:8”

We should see Love being indebted all over the foot washing command as well as when we approach the new command to Love like Jesus Loved:

John_13:34-35 – Jesus-Like Love is Commanded

Joh_13:34-35 LSV A new command [ἐντολὴν καινὴν] I give to you, that you love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (same as Rom_13:8)]; according [καθὼς – same as Joh_13:15 (foot washing)] as I loved you, that you also love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (≈ Rom_13:8)]; 35 in this will all know* [γνώσονται] that you are My disciples, if [ἐὰν] you may have love one to [ἐν] another.”

Joh_13:34-35 Greek ἐντολὴν καινὴν δίδωμι ὑμῖν ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους, καθὼς [same as Joh_13:15] ἡγάπησα ὑμᾶς ἵνα καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους. 35 ἐν τούτῳ γνώσονται πάντες ὅτι ἐμοὶ μαθηταί ἐστε, ἐὰν ἀγάπην ἔχητε ἐν ἀλλήλοις.

Foot Washing/Love – Down-According as Jesus

Joh_13:15 LSV For I gave to you ·an example [ὑπόδειγμα], that, [down-]according [καθὼς – same as Joh_13:34 (New Love Command)] as I did [ἐποίησα] to you, you also ·may do [ποιῆτε];

Joh_13:34 LSV love one another; [down-]according [καθὼς – same as Joh_13:15 (foot washing)] as I loved you, that you also love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (≈ Rom_13:8)]

New Foot Washing Example: Down according to Jesus

Both are indebted Love, just like Romans 13.

Mysterious Obedience-Connection vs End-times Deception

-- Under Construction -- PENDING!!!

…

The Father, Son, & Spirit vs. the World

What do we Learn About Real Love Here?

· Obedience Love gets you in this very non-worldly Spirit, which matches with the obedient Love that follows in John 15

· Real Love ≈ Obedience, and it’s very non-worldly!

· Notice the Serious Love -- the World does not know anything about this level of Real Love…

· There is a radical, irreconcilable, incompatibility with the World and the Spirit of the Truth (and His real Love).

· Real Love ≈ Obedience ≈ Spirit of Truth,
Everything else = the World/Satan/Deception/Antichrist/Hell

· Real Love-Truth-Obedience and how it saves us from the World is how Jesus shows us what Real Love is all about in John 14.

· Obedience = Real Love of God in John 14 and it also directly matches with how we also Truly Love disciples with Real Love on earth in 1jn.

John_14:27 – Non-Worldly Peace

Joh_14:27 LSV Peace I leave [ἀφίημι] to you; My peace [εἰρήνην τὴν ἐμὴν] I give to you. Not according [οὐ καθὼς (antithesis of Joh_13:15 & Joh_13:34)] as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled [ταρασσέσθω], nor let it be afraid [δειλιάτω].

Joh_14:27 Greek Εἰρήνην ἀφίημι ὑμῖν, εἰρήνην τὴν ἐμὴν δίδωμι ὑμῖν· οὐ καθὼς ὁ κόσμος δίδωσιν, ἐγὼ δίδωμι ὑμῖν. μὴ ταρασσέσθω ὑμῶν ἡ καρδία, μηδὲ δειλιάτω.

√ GNTV

>> Joh_16: peace

Just like Jesus gives peace that is not like the world gives peace, so also the only Love that God gives is not like the “love” that the world has (or has ever known).

BTW: This Joh_14:27 “peace” is opposed to terror/timid-ness [μὴ ταρασσέσθω ὑμῶν ἡ καρδία, μηδὲ δειλιάτω] just like real Love is also opposed to fear* in 1Jo_4:18 [φόβος οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ…φόβος…φοβούμενος].

* 1Jn_4:18 Greek φόβος οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ, ἀλλ᾿ ἡ τελεία ἀγάπη ἔξω βάλλει τὸν φόβον, ὅτι ὁ φόβος κόλασιν ἔχει· ὁ δὲ φοβούμενος οὐ τετελείωται ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ.

Notice the Peace-Love parallels in…

· Joh_13:15 [Foot Washing – καθὼς] and Joh_13:34 [New Love Command – καθὼς] and Joh_14:27 [non-worldly, Jesus-Like peace – οὐ καθὼς (antithesis of Joh_13:15 & Joh_13:34)]

· Joh_14:27 [no terror/timid-ness in Jesus’ peace – μὴ ταρασσέσθω] 1Jo_4:18 [no fear in God’s Perfect Love – φόβος οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ]

· Also: 2Co_13:11 and many other links and parallels

Feet, Love, & Peace -- And More Love to Come…

We have spanned and paralleled Foot Washing, the New Love Command, and non-worldly, Jesus-Like peace, -- and Jesus is not done talking about Love yet…

* John the Baptist’s Favorable Cheer & Rejoicing

Jesus spoke (in John 15) as John the Baptist had already said (in John 3):

Joh_3:29 Greek ὁ ἔχων τὴν νύμφην νυμφίος ἐστίν· ὁ δὲ φίλος τοῦ νυμφίου, ὁ ἑστηκὼς καὶ ἀκούων αὐτοῦ, χαρᾷ χαίρει διὰ τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ νυμφίου. αὕτη οὖν ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμὴ πεπλήρωται.

Note: Jesus’ Favorable Cheer & Rejoicing is (linguisticaly/thematically) Preceded by John the Baptist’s Favorable Cheer & Rejoicing.

** Do / SOM: Mat_3:10 (John the Baptist); Mat_7:16-20 (SOM); Mat_12:33; Luk_6:43 (SOM); Jam_3:12

What Love is it?

· Notice that Agape comes 1^st, then warm-liking Love.

· Notice that even Agape is framed in the Monotheism of learning & obeying commands about how to really Love

· Agape + Commandment-Keeping (i.e. Monotheism) = the Real Love in John 15

· v. 7: “Remain” = Faithfulness, ≠ selfishness/lust/worldliness/etc.

· v. 7: “spoken-flowing words” = Monotheism, ≠ worldly lust!

· v. 8: “In this was My Father glorified” (LSV) -- NOT the World!

· v. 8: “disciples” = serious Obeyers (as seen above and below) ≠ the World

· v. 9-10, 12: “According [καθὼς (= v.10)] as the Father loved Me [think: 1Jn_2:15], I also loved you” (LSV) -- specific!

· v. 10, 12: Commandment-keeping/Monotheistic Love

· v. 11: “that favorable-cheerfulness/joy that is mine” (RTA) ≠ circumstantial / luxurious / confident / prideful / selfish / Worldly happiness that only “loves” when it has abundance of money.

· v. 11: Self-sacrificing for other people’s truest value/good

· John 15 = Obedient Father & Son Love

· John 15 ≠ Worldly love/lust

Passionate Love in John 15

· Self-sacrificing Love is the point of Joh_15:13-14.

· World has painless/passionless/apathetic/boring/selfish “love”.

· Cheerful Love (Joh_15:10-12) = a willingness to embrace your crucifixion (Joh_15:13-14).

· Jesus’ “fish breakfast” laid down their fish-lives so Jesus & disciples could eat breakfast.

· Laying down your life for the Father who is immeasurably more valuable than you glorifies His value with your reasonable acknowledgement.

· Your sacrifice also makes you willingly passionate, conforming you to the reflected zealous image of God’s fire.

Worldly love does not obey, which is why no one in the world has any real, serious Love at all, esp. for real disciples/obeyers.

So… Notice the Special Love for disciples/obeyers in John 15’s obedience/fruit!

Down-According Theme is Continued -- So it’s Divine & Special Love:

Joh_15:9-10, 12 – Remain in / Down-According to Father & Son Love

· comp. Obedience Produces Father & Son Love; Father & Son Love Notes; “Down-According” Throughout John

Asking & Receiving… LOVE in John 15

· “Ask & Receive” was introduced in Joh_14:11-15, etc. (‘ask anything [τι] in that of my name’ -- incl. preceding and following context of required obedience) and “Ask & Receive” is now being revisited and explained again in John 15.

· Answered requests ·“becoming to” [γενήσεται V-FDI-3S] you (Joh_15:7) Parallels with you “becom[ing]” Jesus’ Disciple(s) (v. Joh_15:8).

· Requests ‘becoming’ answered to you ≈ you ‘becoming’ a disciple ≈ you bearing good fruit.

· “Asking and receiving” is not just a benefit of being a disciple, it is an essential essence of it…

· “Asking and receiving” leads to obedience fruit, which in turn leads to Divine Love.

· After hearing, obeying, & being discipled, you ask and receive whatever you wish, then you Love people (which is part of carrying “much fruit”) instead of lusting after more things that you don’t have in this life…

Notice that in John 15 the same pattern repeats from Mat_6-7 and Luk_6:

(1) Listen to God,

(2) “ask and receive”,

(3) Get Fruit: Hear+DO/Obey, incl.

(4) Divine Love

In John 15 this obedience specifically results in “(4) Love for disciples”, which matches/correlates with the special Divine Love for outsiders (incl. enemies, etc.) in Mat_5 and Luk_6.

Trees & Fruit -- Reminders

· Becoming Learners/Apprentices/Disciples (v. Joh_15:8) = DO (v. Joh_15:14) / obey = “fruit” (v. Joh_15:7) = result of the remaining Word -- as confirmed in v. Joh_15:10-14; Mat_7:13-29; Mat_12:33-37 (seen below); Luk_6:43-49, etc.

John 15 Compared With Matthew 12

Mat_12:33-37 LSV Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known. 34 Brood of vipers! How are you able to speak good things—being evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 35 The good man out of the good treasure of the heart puts forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure puts forth evil things. 36 And I say to you that every idle word that men may speak, they will give for it a reckoning in [the] day of judgment; 37 for from your words you will be ~~declared~~ righteous[ified], and from your words you will ~~be declared~~ unrighteous [καταδικασθήσῃ – i.e. righteous/justice will come down on you].”

Mat_12:33 ῎Η ποιήσατε τὸ δένδρον καλὸν, καὶ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ καλόν, ἢ ποιήσατε τὸ δένδρον σαπρὸν, καὶ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ σαπρόν· ἐκ γὰρ τοῦ καρποῦ τὸ δένδρον γινώσκεται.

Mat_12:34 γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν, πῶς δύνασθε ἀγαθὰ λαλεῖν πονηροὶ ὄντες; ἐκ γὰρ τοῦ περισσεύματος τῆς καρδίας τὸ στόμα λαλεῖ.

Mat_12:35 ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει |TSτης TSκαρδιας εκβαλλει TSτα| ἀγαθά, καὶ ὁ πονηρὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει πονηρά.

Mat_12:36 λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι πᾶν ῥῆμα ἀργὸν ὃ ἐὰν λαλήσωσιν |Aλαλησουσιν TSBεαν TSBλαλησωσιν| οἱ ἄνθρωποι, ἀποδώσουσι περὶ αὐτοῦ λόγον ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως·

Mat_12:37 ἐκ γὰρ τῶν λόγων σου δικαιωθήσῃ καὶ ἐκ τῶν λόγων σου καταδικασθήσῃ.

TSK: make the good tree, Mat_23:26, Eze_18:31, Amo_5:15, Luk_11:39, Luk_11:40, Jam_4:8

TSK: and his fruit good: Mat_3:8-10, Mat_7:16-20, Luk_3:9, Luk_6:43, Luk_6:44, Joh_15:4-7, Jam_3:12

Summary: (A) Remaining in Jesus produces: (B) real results/fruit/obedience, & Continual Obedience/Fruit Produces: (C) Self-sacrificing, Special, Divine Love for Disciples.

The Point: We must remain in obedience fruit/results, & sacrificial Love as Jesus Loved, laying down Soul/life with special Love for disciples ^v.8/obeyers ^{v.8, 14}/friends ^v.13-14.

(We also got to compare John with 1^st John’s Old and New Commandments)

John_15:17-19 – Love Disciples, Contrary to the Hateful World

Joh_15:17-19 LSV These things I command [ἐντέλλομαι ^V-PNI-1S = I am commanding] you [all], that you love one another; 18 if the world hates you, ·you [must/are] know[ing] [γινώσκετε ^{V-PAI-2P V-PAM-2P}] that it has hated Me before you; 19 if ·you were [being (ἦτε ^V-IXI-2P – imperfect)] ·[out] of [ἐκ] the world, the world would have ·[possibly] been [ἂν] ·[warm-liking/friend-]cherishing ^V-IAI-3S its own [ὁ κόσμος ἂν τὸ ἴδιον ἐφίλει ^V-IAI-3S (= Joh_15:13-14)], ·but because [ὅτι δὲ – however, in-that] you are not [being (ἐστέ ^V-PXI-2P)] ·[out] of [ἐκ] the world, but [ἀλλ᾿] I chose [ἐξελεξάμην (ἐξ- = ἐκ; same word)] ·[you] [ὑμᾶς] out of [ἐκ (same word x4)] the world—because of [διὰ] this the world hates [μισεῖ ^V-PAI-3S – is hating] you [all (P-2AP)].

Joh_15:17-19 Greek ταῦτα ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν, ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους. 18 Εἰ ὁ κόσμος ὑμᾶς μισεῖ, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐμὲ πρῶτον ὑμῶν μεμίσηκεν. 19 εἰ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου ἦτε, ὁ κόσμος ἂν τὸ ἴδιον ἐφίλει· ὅτι δὲ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου οὐκ ἐστέ, ἀλλ᾿ ἐγὼ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου, διὰ τοῦτο μισεῖ ^V-PAI-3S ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος.

Joh_15:20-27 – Summary: Persecution from Hatful World

Joh_15:20 – “if they* persecuted Me, they will also persecute you” (LSV) [comp. Luk_10:16; Joh_15:20, etc.]

[Note: “the [hating] world” (v. Joh_15:17-19) = “they” (v. Joh_15:20-24)]
Joh_15:21 – they persecute (obeyers) because of Son’s name & ignorance of Sender

· Notice the same “if” statements seen previously in v. Joh_15:18-19 as also seen later, here in v. Joh_15:20-21.

Joh_15:22 – Son’s speaking convicted and exposed their sin
Joh_15:23 – Hating ¹ Son = Hating ² Father
[(1) V-PAP-NSM (2) V-PAI-3S]
Joh_15:24 a – Unique works convict sin

Joh_15:24 b – They’ve Seen + Hated, Son + Father
Joh_15:25 – Their Causeless Hate = Their Law’s Writing Fulfilled

“They hated Me without a cause” (LSV)
Joh_15:26 – Caller-next-to will testify about Son when Sent from Father
Joh_15:27 – Original obeyers will also testify

Jesus’ Non-Worldly Love, Out of Heaven

· In Joh_15:17 Jesus is still “commanding” the same NEW (Joh_13:34), non-worldly (Joh_15:18-19) Love as He was previously (in Joh_13:34, Joh_15:9-10, & Joh_15:12).

· Joh_13:34* “A new command…love one another” =
Joh_15:9-10 “remain in My love” =
Joh_15:12 “This is ·My command [ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ ἐμή], that you love one another, according as [καθὼς] I loved you” =
Joh_15:17 “[ἐντέλλομαι ^V-PNI-1S = I am commanding] you [all], that you love one another”
(LSV)

· Jesus says the world hates Him & Obeyers… (v. 17)

· the world hates & even persecutes Him & Obeyers (v. Joh_15:20-27)

· Consider how much of the secular and churchy religious world that claim they like the Bible/Love/Jesus/people/etc. …

· …but does the world really Love or “hate” God & people?

· Does the World really have any real Biblical Love for Jesus or Disciples at all when they are clearly persecuting them both?

· When it comes to the most important people group to Love on the face of the whole earth, does the World have any Love left at all, after all its boasts of “love”?

· It doesn’t matter how many secular and churchy people say they “love” -- the Truth is: they all hate… (unless/until they actually OBEY Jesus…)

· “Out” is repeated 4 times in this one passage. --
(this same play on Words (with “out”) continues on into John 17 as well as 1jn…)

· “Out” = Repeated emphasis of the non-worldly origin & nature of Jesus’ Perfect heavenly Love & His Loving Disciples, whom He is sending out into the loveless World.

· “Down-according to” repeatedly shows what Jesus’ Love IS.

· Not being “out” of the world repeatedly shows what His Love is NOT -- and what His disciples are commanded NOT to be like.

· It is sinful and satanic to keep praising generic/worldly “love”, that we all want and know, like William Law and the Commentary Project does, as though that worthless garbage has anything to do with the Bible’s Love, when the Bible goes to such repeated and explicit lengths to only praise such specific real Love as this Divinely Perfect Biblical Love.

· Remember: William Law’s Made Up Arminian Blasphemous Heresy… (SRP)

· William Law (typical psudo-hard-core/Philosophical/Arminian/evangelical) and the Commentary Project (liberal) both promote a “love” (in the name of the Bible / “JC”) that the world likes & is drawn to / etc.

· Will God, who hates bribes, take & gladly receive such lying flatteries from the flesh of His enemies (i.e. the friends of the World – Jas_4:4, seen below)?
[TSK (on 1Pe_1:17): who: Deu_10:17, 2Ch_19:7, Job_34:19, Mat_22:16, Act_10:34, Act_10:35, Rom_2:10, Rom_2:11, Gal_2:6, Eph_6:9, Col_3:25]

* Joh_13:34 LSV “A new command [ἐντολὴν καινὴν] I give to you, that you love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (same as Rom_13:8)]; according [καθὼς – same as Joh_13:15 (foot washing)] as I loved you, that you also love one another [ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους (≈ Rom_13:8)]”

So, just as we are commanded to carefully consider and obey Jesus’ real Love, we are also warned to beware of the World’s hatred:

The Hate is Real…

TAGS: The Hatred is Real…

· “if the world hates you” (v. Joh_15:18) ≠ “Theoretical Hatred” from the World

· “if the world hates you” (v. Joh_15:18) = “the world hates [μισεῖ ^V-PAI-3S – is hating] you [all (P-2AP)]” (v. Joh_15:19)
(just in case anyone might get initially tripped up by the word “if” in v. Joh_15:18)

· Notice the same “if” statements in v. Joh_15:18-19 as also seen later in v. Joh_15:20-21.

· Don’t confuse Jesus’ discussion of “if”-hatred (v. Joh_15:18) as though it were purely theoretical, occasional, and/or isolated, when it is, in fact, instead, quite overt, factual, continual, and even universal (v. Joh_15:19).

· Don’t ever be silly and goofy in any of the fragmented theological games church people might play against the Bible lest you always be confused even with relatively simple passages such as this.

· The World’s very real hatred results in persecuting Jesus & Obeyers (v. Joh_15:20-27)

· Accurately considering the World’s “if”-hatred is inversely comparable to saying:
“in this is love…He loved us…11 Beloved, if [εἰ (=Joh_15:18)] God so loved us, we also ought to love one another” (1Jn 4:10-11 LSV)

· Neither God’s Love nor the World’s hatred is in question when considering what we should do “if these things be so” (in Joh_15:18-19).

1Jn_4:10-11 LSV in this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son—the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another;

1Jn_4:10 ἐν τούτῳ ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγάπη, οὐχ ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠγαπήσαμεν τὸν Θεόν, ἀλλ᾿ ὅτι αὐτὸς ἠγάπησεν |Aηγαπηκαμεν TSBηγαπησαμεν| ἡμᾶς καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἱλασμὸν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν.

1Jn_4:11 ᾿Αγαπητοί, εἰ οὕτως ὁ Θεὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ἀλλήλους ἀγαπᾶν.

Mutual Opposition with Different Results

· God commands all people to Love each other, and to even like each other’s value.

· Who better to fulfill God’s commands to Love all people than His own disciples?

· Animosity and opposition does not start with the righteous, but with the World.

· The righteous extend their hand of Love and invite friendship, but the World returns hatred and unfriendly persecution.

· The World is commanded to repent and like/Love God and us, but it continues in hatred instead. (comp. 2Co_6, etc.)
…and as a direct, co-extensive, properly correlating, required, inevitable subsequent result and consequence…

· Persecuted Disciples are not allowed to “like” the persecuting World (either) lest we become enemies of God (Jas_4:4, seen below).

· World’s warm-liked-friends go to hell with the World.

· Disciples’ warm-liked-friends inherit heaven with Jesus.

· Both The World and Jesus’ disciples have a mutual dislike for each other (a non-warm-friendly-disliking), and both feel hatred from each other, but each ones “hate” has a different essence and different results.

· Even if we “hate” people (Luk_14:25-35), it is for holiness sake and is always warm-hearted, with real Love, and has no animosity at all in our hearts, and it calls them into salvation so that they might not perish (2Ti_2, etc.). (Luk_14 also shows how skeptical Jesus is, and with how much contempt He has held when speaking against the World’s “love”!)

· World’s “hatred” of disciples is ultimately cold-hearted and results in actively killing them (as seen in John 16 and the references below).

Beware of Hatred -- in the World/church

· Jesus’ Special commanded (Monotheistic) Disciple-Love [ἀγαπᾶτε] = contrasted with World’s selfish warm-liking [ἐφίλει] & Disciple-Hatred [μισεῖ]

· The same obedience that makes you Jesus’ Warm-liked Friends, also makes you hated and excluded from being warm-liked/friended by the World.

· John 15 shows us to be careful lest we be mixed with society / the World as we search for Love…

· See: Matthew 10, Mark 13, & Luke 21 (all seen below) which all give “beware” warnings about the end-times in general, and also warn this same way when sending out disciples to preach & proclaim throughout the hateful World in the meantime (which is what John 17 also does).

· Always remember that they hate you, and,

· Worldly, maddened hatred is predicted to come out even more extremely in the end-times by their murdering the martyrs, as the ultimate result from all who do not have real Love.

The Point

· World likes World

· World Hates Disciples

· World’s “love”/liking of its own = Hatred for disciples

· Divine Love ≠ Worldly Lust / Liking Sin/Sinners

· John 15 Love ≠ Worldly Hatred / fake love!

Neither John 15, nor James 4, nor any part of the rest of the Bible ever promotes, or even allows or tolerates any Love that is shallow, disobedient, non-disciple-liking-loving, and Worldly.
