Beautifully explained. Thank you, preachers of truth are our gift

[@fayedouglass1659]

I love this explanation. Every time I listen to him, I feel more loved by Jesus. I love the way he explains even the most cryptic message.

[@caribbeanguytrinbago9662]

The insight and good "food" from this man is fascinating

[@johnsamuel6632]

What an an amazing explanation of the passage. Preachers these days just preach about what God will do for us; but they don't teach what we have to do for God. This sermon is a gem and it has to be preserved for the future generations as well. 🙏

Amazing explanation of the passage. ❤️

Thank God for good Biblical teaching without self serving allegories and toxic anthropomorphic mysticism.

[@quetzelmichaels1637]

Apparently, there were established churches in Greece and Rome within a very short period of time. In fact, too short of a period. Once they established the viability of the Fig Tree Jesus planted with prior years of preaching, they sealed it with the story of the crucifixion. From then on, Jesus could go about and continue his preaching, anonymously. His first appearance, the first coming, is within the same generation of his return, when he finds the Fig Tree with only foliage on it. When the fig tree's leaves become tender and sprout leaves, you know summer is near. In the same way, when you see the abomination of desolation set up in him, as the temple without one stone left standing upon another, you know that he is near. The man planted a fig tree in his garden, and for three years came looking for fruit on it. Not finding any, he was going to cut it down and remove it from the soil. He was convinced to leave it and allow it to be cultivated and fertilized. When he comes upon the fig tree, he finds only leaves on it, not fruit, and curses it. Each year Christians have adorned it with artificial fruit. It is the same story with turning water into wine. When he was told they were out of wine at the wedding feast, he said; what concern is it of mine, it is not my hour. Either that had to do with the infirmity for which he was spurned and avoided, because that is crazy talk, or it has to do with treading the winepress on the day of vengeance AS judgment on the day of the Lord. The way of the Lord in the desert needs to be put into context with the previous passage: (Joshua) The First Beast - Day of the Lord - Sacrifice - Indeed, she has received from the hand of the LORD double for all her sins. (Moses) The Second Beast - Way of the Lord - Resurrection - Make straight in the wasteland a highway for our God! (Isa 40:2-3 NABO) Just as it is appointed that human beings die - be judged - appear a second time, (so also Christ) Heb 9:27-28 …as the (Red) Dragon (Demon Sin) stood before the woman about to give birth, to devour her child when she gave birth. (Rev 12:4 NABO) Warning of the impending Day of the Lord, he was swallowed by the Beast out of the Sea and spewed out upon the shore as the Beast out of the Earth, as the sun beat down upon his head and a burning east wind began the Way of the Lord in the Desert.

[@lanabowers5332]

Here is the correct & historical meaning of this event. There were 2 political parties, one was called the 'Figtree' & the other was called the 'Vineyard. The Figtree party wanted war with Rome & the Vineyard party wanted peace. In addition to the missions of the Essenes & the ruling Herods, there was another mission in Rome. This was the one called the 'Figtree'. From 4BC, the dispute about the Herodian succession that had been fought out in Rome between the brothers Archelaus & Antipas had led to a splitting of Herodian loyalties. Antipas must have established a different house, & the mission that continued from his house continued to be hostile to the ruling Herods. This mission which looked to the Therapeuts of Egypt rather than to Palestinian Essenes for its ascetic discipline was called the Figtree because Therapeuts did not drink wine & were skilled in the medical arts. The Vineyard & the Figtree were associated but had separate organizations. As a parable in Luke says, 'A Figtree was planted in a Vineyard'. Simon Magus was a subsequent leader of the Zealot Figtree mission, closely associated with the tetrarch Antipas. On Mondqy, March 2, 33AD Jesus went to the temple treasury (in Qumran) at the time for money collection. No fulfillment has occurred for those expecting a Restoration at SS3969 (1st position, Samaritan 31st). Jesus says it's because of the financial corruption & overturns the furniture of the banking system. The next day was March 3. When there was no fulfillment at the regular 31st, Jesus attacks the Herodian form of mission, including that of 5he tetrarch, the 'Figtree'. When he 'cursed the figtree' he was condemning their financial exploitation, zealot ambitions & their methods which were compromising the mission, & he expelled them.

I do love the teaching of RC, however , where is God angry with people AFTER the ascension of Christ? If you are IN Christ, there is no condemnation 💝🙏

John 12:49 For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. John 17:21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. John 17:23 I in them and you in me-so that they may be brought to complete unity.

Mark 12:33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Romans 13:9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Romans 13:10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. Galatians 5:14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Psalm 40:6 Sacrifice and offering you did not desire- but my ears you have opened- burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.

[@GeneGruber]

Yes, it happened in AD70 when the Roman army destroyed the temple .... just as Jesus had predicted . Please read the whole chapter( Mathew 24 ) in context . The one taken was taken in judgement , The one left was spared from Gods wrath . Jesus explains this in the next few verses . "As in the days of Noah .... " This text is not about a rapture . Nor is it about the end of the world . This is one of the most misrepresented and misunderstood chapters in the Bible . Blessings ! ! Hope this helps someone .

In its season it will do just tha,if you tend to the garden of life Properly... To murder a tree of life for not having fruit out of season, brings punishment. Reap what you sow?

Who's the bridegroom? According to the scriptures. Christian is my loved one, Wife and Bride. Isaiah 54:5 For your Maker is your husband- the Lord Almighty is his name- the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth. Isaiah 62:5 As a young man marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you. Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life. Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. John 12:44 Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me. John 5:17 In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.” John 14:10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. With love and light, Troy aka Life

Come ,said the bridegroom come... Ephesians 5:26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, Her helper, said Come! Isaiah 34:16 Look in the scroll of the Lord and read: None of these will be missing, not one will lack her mate. For it is his mouth that has given the order, and his Spirit will gather them together. John 14:16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever- The Marriage Covenant messenger, God has placed. Christian, my loved one. Wife and Bride. Come Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. 1 Corinthians 15:44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 1 Corinthians 15:46 The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual. John 14:23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. John 6:32 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 2 Corinthians 2:16 To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task? 2 Corinthians 4:10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. Revelation 5:6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. James 4:5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us? Colossians 1:16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 1 Peter 4:11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:16 However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. Marriage Covenant messenger, Accepted seed, Opened Book.

A Bride's groom Fact. Christian, my loved one, Wife and Bride. Proverbs 12:4 A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones. Romans 9:25 As he says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘my people’ who are not my people; and I will call her ‘my loved one’ who is not my loved one,” Habakkuk 3:9 You uncovered your bow, you called for many arrows. You split the earth with rivers; Matthew 19:17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” John 5:17 In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.” Colossians 3:4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life. --John 15:26 The Work of the Holy Spirit “When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father-the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father-he will testify about me. Isaiah 59:19 From the west, people will fear the name of the Lord, and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory. For he will come like a pent-up flood that the breath of the Lord drives along. Jeremiah 20:9 But if I say, “I will not mention his word or speak anymore in his name,” his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot. John 6:27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval. John 12:50 I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say. Genesis 49:11 He will tether his donkey to a vine, his colt to the choicest branch; he will wash his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes. Revelation 19:13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. ---Acts 2:17 “‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Matthew 13:17 For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it. Matthew 11:27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. Matthew 24:36 The Day and Hour Unknown “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Mark 8:38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.” John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. -- --Genesis 9:5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being. Psalm 49:7 No one can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for them- Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Ezekiel 14:20 as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, even if Noah, Daniel and Job were in it, they could save neither son nor daughter. They would save only themselves by their righteousness. Isaiah 66:3 But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a person, and whoever offers a lamb is like one who breaks a dog’s neck; whoever makes a grain offering is like one who presents pig’s blood, and whoever burns memorial incense is like one who worships an idol. They have chosen their own ways, and they delight in their abominations; Psalm 40:6 Sacrifice and offering you did not desire- but my ears you have opened- burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Mark 12:33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” -- - --Proverbs 3:18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed. Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and the one who is wise saves lives. Proverbs 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. Proverbs 15:4 The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit. Isaiah 49:18 Lift up your eyes and look around; all your children gather and come to you. As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “you will wear them all as ornaments; you will put them on, like a bride. Isaiah 61:10 I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. Isaiah 62:5 As a young man marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you. --- ---John 2:9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside John 3:29 The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete. Revelation 19:7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Revelation 21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the FREE! gift of the water of life. Isaiah 25:8 he will swallow up d/eat/h forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth. The Lord has spoken. 1 Corinthians 15:54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “D/eat/h has been swallowed up in victory.” --- - ---2 Samuel 22:15 He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them.

Psalm 18:14 He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them. Psalm 56:13 For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life. Psalm 112:4 Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous. Psalm 119:130 The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. Sown with Love, Christian's Husband, Troy aka Life

Isaiah 62:11 The Lord has made proclamation to the ends of the earth: “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your Savior comes! See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.’” Isaiah 66:8 Who has ever heard of such things? Who has ever seen things like this?
