Psalm 34:1 (0) By David, when he pretended to be insane before Avimelekh, who then drove him away; so he left:
2 (1) I will bless Adonai at all times;
his praise will always be in my mouth.
3 (2) When I boast, it will be about Adonai;
the humble will hear of it and be glad.
4 (3) Proclaim with me the greatness of Adonai;
let us exalt his name together.
5 (4) I sought Adonai, and he answered me;
he rescued me from everything I feared.
6 (5) They looked to him and grew radiant;
their faces will never blush for shame.
7 (6) This poor man cried; Adonai heard
and saved him from all his troubles.
8 (7) The angel of Adonai, who encamps
around those who fear him, delivers them.
9 (8) Taste, and see that Adonai is good.
How blessed are those who take refuge in him! (Complete Jewish Bible)
Hebrews 7:23 Moreover, the present cohanim are many in number, because they are prevented by death from continuing in office. 24 But because he lives forever, his position as cohen does not pass on to someone else; 25 and consequently, he is totally able to deliver those who approach God through him; since he is alive forever and thus forever able to intercede on their behalf.
26 This is the kind of cohen gadol that meets our need — holy, without evil, without stain, set apart from sinners and raised higher than the heavens; 27 one who does not have the daily necessity, like the other cohanim g’dolim, of offering up sacrifices first for their own sins and only then for those of the people; because he offered one sacrifice, once and for all, by offering up himself. 28 For the Torah appoints as cohanim g’dolim men who have weakness; but the text which speaks about the swearing of the oath, a text written later than the Torah, appoints a Son who has been brought to the goal forever. (Complete Jewish Bible).
Mark 13:1 As Yeshua came out of the Temple, one of the talmidim said to him, “Look, Rabbi! What huge stones! What magnificent buildings!” 2 “You see all these great buildings?” Yeshua said to him, “They will be totally destroyed — not a single stone will be left standing!”
3 As he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the Temple, Kefa, Ya‘akov, Yochanan and Andrew asked him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what sign will show when all these things are about to be accomplished?”
5 Yeshua began speaking to them: “Watch out! Don’t let anyone fool you! 6 Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and they will fool many people. 7 When you hear the noise of wars nearby and the news of wars far off, don’t become frightened. Such things must happen, but the end is yet to come. 8 For peoples will fight each other, and nations will fight each other, there will be earthquakes in various places, there will be famines; this is but the beginning of the ‘birth pains.’(Complete Jewish Bible).
Sermon Notes:
This morning this passage is very relevant to what is going on in this world today with violence happening.
What am I to learn from this passage of Scripture through the preacher's words in reflection?
Our memories of people in our lives who have died.
Let us hear God's Agenda of the Scripture over our agendas.
What is God's Agenda for us in the Words of today's Scripture?
Reflection on this year's election nationally and state wide.
Am I looking with God's to look after others with less power than I may have?
This passage is Jesus' response to the disciples after He tells them the Temple will completely be destroyed.
Jesus gone for 30 years. The conflict between the Romans and Judaism has increased.
Just as there were people for and against Rome is true today even in our current government as well.
Jesus pushed back on both Rome and the Judaist. The fundamental problem than and now is the abuse of power.
Jesus reflection on Isaiah and Jeremiah in dealing wil all people not a just a few.
God is watching us how we deal with all people.
When our privilege is threaten how do we view other people's privilege.
We have power to do what we do through Love of God and all other people.
If the beginning of birth pangs be Heaven kissing earth for all people to benefit from God's Grace and Love.
We must learn to do what we can where we are.
Let Love, God's Love to rule on our lives fully.
