And measures and matters of The Truth of the "time" we are in ...how "man" ..."thought to change time and times ... Dearly beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, how that one day is with the Lord, as a thousand year, and a thousand year as one day.
The Lord is not slack to fulfil his promise, as some men count slackness: but is patient to us ward, and would have no man lost, but would receive all men to repentance.
creteis@yahoo.com Behold in a dread nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...
and i was taken and shown a man ...
and there came words without speaking and plain stern warning.
rudeness meanness and threatening have no place in the kingdom
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
This I say therefore and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in vanity of their mind, blinded in their understanding, being strangers from the life which is in God through the ignorancy that is in them, because of the blindness of their hearts, which being past repentance, have given themselves unto wantonness, to work all manner of uncleanness, even with greediness. But ye have not so learned Christ, if so be ye have heard of him and are taught in him, even as the truth is in Jesu. So then as concerning the conversation in time past, lay from you that old man, which is corrupt through the deceivable lusts, and be ye renewed in the spirit of your minds, and put on that new man, which after the image of God is shapen in righteousness and true holiness. Wherefore put away lying, and speak every man truth unto his neighbor, for as much as we are members one of another.
Be angry but sin not: let not the *son go down upon your wrath, neither give place unto the backbiter. Let him that stole, steal no more, but let him rather labour with his hands some good thing, that he may have to give unto him that needeth.
Let no filthy communication proceed out of your mouths: but that which is good to edify with all, when need is: that it may have favour with the hearers. And grieve not the holy spirit of God, by whom ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, fierceness and wrath, roaring and cursed speaking, be put away from you, with all maliciousness. Be ye courteous one to another, and merciful, forgiving one another, even as God for Christs sake forgave youPaul the servant of God and an Apostle of *Jesu Christ, to preach the faith of Gods elect, and the knowledge of that truth, which is after godliness upon the hope of eternal life, which life God that cannot lie hath promised before the world began: but hath opened his word at the time appointed through preaching, which preaching is committed unto me, by the commandment of God our saviour. To Titus his natural son in the common faith.
Grace mercy and peace from God the father, and from the Lord Jesu Christ our saviour.
For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest perform that which was lacking, and shouldest ordain elders in every city as I appointed thee. If any be faultless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, which are not *sclandered of riot, neither are disobedient. For a bishop must be faultless, as it becometh the minister of God: not stubborn, not angry, no drunkard, no fighter, not given to filthy *lucre: but harbourous, one that loveth goodness, sober minded, righteous, holy, temperate, and such as cleaveth unto the true word of doctrine, that he may be able to exhort with wholesome learning, and to improve them that say against it.
For there are many disobedient and talkers of vanity and deceivers of minds, namely they of the circumcision, whose mouths must be stopped, which pervert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not because of filthy lucre. One being of themselves, which was a poet of their own, said: The Cretans are always liars evil beasts, and slow bellies. This witness is true, wherefore rebuke them sharply that they may be sound in the faith, and not taking heed to Jewes fables and commandments of men that turn from the truth. Unto the pure, are all things pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving, is nothing pure: but even the very minds and consciences of them are defiled. They confess that they know God: but with the deeds they deny him, and are abominable and disobedient, and unto all good works *discommendable*Jesu: Hebrew for Jesus. *sclandered (scandal and slander) *lucre (shameful gain):
*discommendable (not worthy).THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 14
He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, the same is he that loveth me. And he that loveth me shall be loved of my father: and I will love him, and will show mine own self unto him. Judas said unto him (not Judas Iscarioth) Lord what is the cause that thou wilt show thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him: if a man love me and will keep my sayings, my father also will love him, and we will come unto him, and will dwell with him. He that loveth me not, keepeth not my sayings. And the words which ye hear, are not mine, but the fathers which sent me.
This have I spoken unto you being yet present with you. But that comforter which is the holy ghost (whom my father will send in my name) he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have told you.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your hearts be grieved, neither fear ye. Ye have heard how I said unto you: I go and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would verily rejoice, because I said, I go unto the father. For the father is greater then I. And now have I showed you, before it come, that when it is come to pass, ye might believe. Here after will I not talk many words unto you. For the ruler of this world cometh, and hath nought in me. But that the world may know that I love the father: therefore as the father gave me commandment, even so do I.

The congregations of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord and so doeth the congregation that is in their house. All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss. The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand. If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, the same be *Anathema maranatha. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
*Anathema maranatha: from the marginal notes: The same be accursed at the coming of the Lord.
