I blundered--Kings and Ecccliastes

  I blundered--Kings and Eccleaisstes

I put Kings on Dec. 18 and Eccliastes on Dec. 15. It's good that it's 3 generations!

Kings is from David to the Exile, and Bullinger's outline is difficult to make into a song.

Ecclesiastes has the '...conclusion of the whole matter, keep His commandments...'

So I offer this conflation of Beatutudes and Decalogue, to which one wonderful respondent replies that kneeling applies to both.

First Page. 3 generations. 1000. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AcLJu-SRN_o0P4DnA4F1oqwbkxPpnVZz4QzSWuJkHOU/edit

Love in King Jesus,

SHORT PRELIMINARY. 1—‘Without the imperative there is no future’ Bledsoe/Rosenstock. 2—'The Bible comes to us first as Law’. Jordan. 3—'A declarative implies an imperative’. Harlow. (Maybe, Hartman).

4—Because a, do B. The imperative will be in bold. Add ‘Thus saith the Lord’ after every bold. 5—We will weave the Beatitudes and Decalogue into 7, and then do 8—Resurrection, 9—Ascension, 10—Pentecost, 11—A. D. 70, and 12—Already Not Yet Eternal Condition.

 

First of Decalogue (Protestant—though Cascione, LCM, says it might be even 12?!) and First Beatitude.

No other gods. Poor in spirit. The nature of GodTrinity is both 3 and 1. So too is Jesus both God and Man. But much contemporary logic (not Goedel) includes the idea that from the Sheffer Storke (Noth both the one and the other) and be derived all 5 of Russell’s and Whitehead’s  ‘Principia Mathematica’ operators (and, not, or, if-then, if-and-only=if). #1 Because the key fact of the universe is Both/And, articulate a Both/And Logic!

 

Idols and Mourn. The Hebrew Scripture tell us over and over that the Redeemed must fight (a different) Holy War, for Maturation. Sun Tzu tells us that the ultimate victory is to win without the opponent knowing he is in a battle. #2 Because of this, tell us what the battles are now.

 

Don’t take the name emptily, be meek. #3 Because of this, do a ‘Chuck Galeazzi’ Help.Other.People.Everyday. Get Ready To Help People Locally. Do Matthew 25:31-40.

 

Sabbath, Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness. Jesus prays that we be one. We’re separated. #4 Because of this, follow Leithart’s ‘End of Protestantism’. Do a Boulder and a Tri-City. Practice weekly communion, sing Psalms (and all books). Cooperate in commonalities, such as pro-life, marriage courts, praying..

 

Now, Jordan says 5 and 8 go together, 6 and 9, 7 and 10. Honor father and mother, no theft and be merciful. #5 Because of this, do a Meyers Five on Maimonides and ‘New Testament Imperativity’. What did it mean THEN individually, corporately, how was it fulfilled in/by Jesus, what does it mean NOW corporately and individually. (For ‘NTI’ what new applications after 2000 years—example, what authorities NOW as compared to THEN.

 

No murder, no false witness against your neighbor, and pure in heart.

#6. Do Total Bible Saturation. Jordan’s ‘Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament’ is valuable here, read it, mark, learn, and inwardly digest.

 

No adultery, no coveting and peacemakers=sons of God. #7 Read Hoppe’s ‘Democracy, the God that Failed’. Compare democratic war casualties, massive, to dynastic one, minimal. Avoid nuclear war—also biological and chemical.

 

Interlude. Cross and two Persecutions. OK, The Word. We’re in the Fifth Wave of information, Gurri. First was writing, second was alphabet. Paul vs. Socrates. ‘Who will save me from the body of this death? Vs. The more you know, the more moral you are. Gilder’s MIGW. Money is time, information is surprise, growth is learning, Wealth is knowledge in ‘Life After Capitalism’. Fuller’s ephemerality. Diamandis’ Ds. Rosenstock: New technology increases space over which you act, decreases the time it take, and destroys old groups. Diamandis’ Ds.  Do study and apply all these. Read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest these words.

 

Resurrection. ‘If you know what you are doing, OK. If not, you’re in trouble. The church reformed is always reforming. #8. Re-examining all liturgical practices and architecture. Two examples; Candles lit befor service, extinguished after amen evening and morning Creation. Or, in electric light, microphones , pews. Another: Pastor sits at table, congregants stand, or pulpit and lectern, or pulpit.

 

Ascension. Jordan says the universe was retuned as the Ascension is retuned (by 5s?) in Revelation 5;12 to 7:12, thus we have new days of week. #9. Ask yourself, should we have new days of the week names, since there are more days?

Pentecost. Africa and the Global South is the future. South America going Protestant more rapidly than Europe during the Reformation. Jesus appearing the Muslims in dreams. China on pace to become the world’s largest Christian nation. Google Translate, Reverse Speech. #10. Evangelize migrants in their languages. Do Urban Nation on larger scale.

 

A.D. 70. #11. Because it fits into the Biblical pattern of the old house (Garden Ark, Tabernacle…) being destroyed and a new one erected, remember that the Greek Scriptures are building instructions for the whole Creation, and act like it.

 

Eternal Condition, Already and Not Yet. #12 Because the creation is not fallen, because Christ has overcome the world and is King, having all authority, act as if you are already heavenly beings in the Council, and pray and act like it, knowing that present condition will pass, and that each will be judged at the End of Days.
