Greek Lesson Tonight at 7 PM Central Daylight

REVIEW

37 και ηκουσαν αυτου οι δυο μαθηται λαλουντος, και ηκολουθησαν τω ιησου

38 στραφεις δε ο ιησους και θεασαμενος αυτους ακολουθουντας, λεγει αυτοις "τι ζητειτε" οι δε ειπον αυτω "ραββι" [ο λεγεται 'ερμηνευομενον διδασκαλε] "που μενεις"

δε - post-positive, so in our minds it belongs before the οι. Foreign names are often not it vocative (Rabbi) but the Greek word for rabbi is , short e. Recall "Et tu, Brute?" "And you, Brutus."

39 λεγει αυτοις "ερχεσθε και ιδετε"; ηλθον και ειδον [που μενει, και παρ αυτω εμειναν την ημεραν εκεινην]; ωρα δε ην ως δεκατη

40 ην ανδρεας - ο αδελφος σιμωνος πετρου - εις εκ των δυο των ακουσαντων παρα ιωαννου και ακολουθησαντων αυτω

41 ευρισκει (ουτος Andrew) πρωτος [τον αδελφον τον ιδιον σιμωνα] και λεγει αυτω ευρηκαμεν τον μεσσιαν ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον ο χριστος

42 και ηγαγεν αυτον προς τον ιησουν, εμβλεψας δε αυτω ο ιησους ειπεν, "συ ει σιμων ο υιος ιωνα; συ κληθηση κηφας," ο ερμηνευεται πετρος

43 τη επαυριον, ηθελησεν ο ιησους εξελθειν εις την γαλιλαιαν και ευρισκει φιλιππον και λεγει αυτω "ακολουθει μοι"

44 ην δε ο φιλιππος απο βηθσαιδα εκ της πολεως ανδρεου και πετρου

45 ευρισκει φιλιππος τον ναθαναηλ και λεγει αυτω [ον εγραψεν μωσης εν τω νομω - και οι προφηται] ευρηκαμεν ιησουν τον υιον του ιωσηφ τον απο ναζαρετ

46 και ειπεν αυτω ναθαναηλ "εκ ναζαρετ δυναται τι αγαθον ειναι?" λεγει αυτω φιλιππος "ερχου και ιδε."

Understanding The Pilgrim's Progress - From Travis and Lauren Cartee. Print Book from Amazon

This so fitting these days, with our history in the balance.

 Christian put on the spiritual armor of Ephesians 6, which is why he appears as a soldier in the rest of the book. His final weapon against Apolleon is the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God.

 This is a proven remedy against the Giant Despair in Doubting Castle. The prescription is renewable.

These are from Loy's Sermons on the Epistles., emphasis added:

"…This righteousness of God as revealed in the Gospel is acquired for all men, so that no weary and heavy laden soul need now despair. “He died for us, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them and rose again.” 2 Cor. 5:15. In Him should all the nations of the earth be blessed; so that there is no foundation for the Jewish notion that the blessing of Abraham should come only upon the Jews as the chosen people. The chosen people are the believers, as the apostle assures us “that they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.” Gal. 3:9. And this holds equally against the error that God has made an absolute election of certain persons who shall be saved, whilst no provision has been made for the salvation of the rest. All election is in Christ, and in Him all who believe are saved. It is the eternal counsel of God that salvation shall be by faith, and the elect are those who believe."
