2 Samuel 23:1-5 ~ does my house stand so with God

 


One Easter, one of our younger family members came to stand next to me at the large family Easter luncheon.  And he said to me, college aged, "Canna asK ewe a qqquestiON?" 

Certainly, I replied. 

He asked, "Why does everrryOne lough the Eeeaster storY eef, They alllll DIed?" 

I looked at him and said, "Did you intend to sound Scottish when asking me?"  

He laughed so hard, he choked. I looked at my other nephew, "Did you hear that, too?" 

And the other nephew smiled and said, "Aye, he had a wee bit o' the brogue there!" 

And the other nephew counted, "I did?" 

And his cousin replied, "Aye, did you intent it?" 

"No!" 

And the merely commenting nephew darted away to not have to be in this particular conversation. And the older nephew remained. "So? Why? Wouldn't it have gone better for Christianity if they had lived? Instead of the Disciples dying? It's not really good God marketing?"

I see his point. It's a wonder of the world.  And another family member once told me, if I read about the Saints, I definitely feel tired. Suddenly worn out. It is difficult, too nigh impossible, to believe that we would die as bravely as the Lord.  Or want to.  And when reading the longest speech, Jesus records, He counsels His disciples to remember His Joy.  And in Easter, we need to remember Jesus didn't come back to life and ask to move to Crete. As He was asked during one of the High Holy Days by Crete Jews on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.

Jesus did not ask Peter to walk on water.  Peter asked.  And didn't ask again. Instead, Peter swam to Jesus, after Jesus resurrected.  Jesus asked people allll the time to do specific things when they made prayer requests of Him. Go to see the Priest. Wash in the Pool of Salome. Go back to your family. Don't tell anyone I healed you. And Jesus never asked anyone to dive off the cliff of Nazareth and see how it works out. He never said, fly over to the other side of the Sea of Galilee. 

Instead, when Jesus met the blind men calling to Him, He started the conversation by saying, "What do you want? What can I do for you?" This is the same Messiah who knows Zaccheaus by name and his profession and home.  Jesus knows Salvation has come to Zaccheaus and his household today.  And He understands His own Power of mercy, grace and forgiveness has eternal warmth and souls bloom.


Yes, the Disciples died.  They had seen Heaven in the Life Triumphant of God in Jesus. Father of GLORY. What the Disciples had seen, and run out on, was Love.  God's overwhelming Acts and Love.

In the Parables, Jesus says when you have found Heaven, it is a field you purchase with all you have.  Knowing what the field is. God within.  The Disciples found they had to explain what they lived and knew. Jesus Christ. 





Claudius was going to say No Thank You.



Earthquake records




Pontius Pilate wrote about Jesus and Good Friday to Emperor Tiberius 'Claudius' Nero. Tertullian and Justin Martyr refer to an account of Christ's Passion sent by Pilate to Rome. The letter is lost today.







Claudius did not want the half Legion posted in Jerusalem to come home and talk about
Jesus Christ and Good Friday.  The Tribunes were too well respected. 








History 
clearly
records
the massive
Persecutions
of
Christians
the first 300 years
of this AD 
Roman Empire

If the saints tire us out,
what about the "unknown"
Roman Emperors???


(You can skip this extensive List Showing How Important Jesus became to the Roman Empire and the Emperors. This is the Steadfast Love History Principal.)



The Bible in our hands is easily found today. 
We reap what many others fought and died to save. To have the Bible in our hands today.



CLAUDIUS KNEW HE NEEDED THIS TRUTH SNUFFED OUT


Emperor Claudius didn't like the sound of Fighting a King of Kings.

He knew He did not want to battle Tombs opening and the Temples ripped apart. 

And Claudius wanted to snuff out any counter power, which could infringe on his own political power. 

The Bible in our hands is easily found today. We reap what many others fought and died to save. To have the Bible in our hands today.


Before the Coliseum, Claudius had an Imperial Palace on the site of the Coliseum. This is where the people of God found the Roman Empire would begin to destroy Scripture of the New Testament.


 The Roman Colosseum was build by the gold from the destruction of Jerusalem and The Temple of God in 81 A. D.




When Jesus died, Claudius was Emperor of Rome. 

It was Claudius who imprisoned Paul, the first time. In the remote, far away country of Judea, the name of Jesus Christ and His promises and His Word, created unease for Claudius. Imagine this could occur in the time there were no mass methods of communication. It is historical fact. 16 years after the death of Jesus. Claudius has gone from prominence to being an enigma in history.



Jesus Christ has gone forth.


Claudius – Imprisoned Christians. Reigned 25 -54 AD. Emperor during the death and resurrection of Jesus. Imprisoned Paul, for his first imprisonment, house arrest.





We can see the rooms Nero lived in where he killed his 2nd wife.
This was their home, part of the invention of Shopping Malls could be credited to crazy Nero


Galba – Put St. Paul and others to death. 69 AD

Otho & Vittelius– only 4 months as Emperor

Vespasian – Sent Titus to destroy Jerusalem in 70 AD, it was the natural end time of Jesus’ life. It is said it is the prophecies Jesus spoke of, His forgiveness was given to the people of His generation. In that destruction, the Temple of the Jews has not been built in 2,000 years. (In 300 A.D, a third temple had the materials gathered, but earthquake, war and fire put an end to that.) Jewish Sacrifice has not been practiced for 2,000 years, it is forsaken. The Jews don’t even know why. God said Jesus was the sacrifice for you.



Titus – See Arch of Titus, still standing, in Rome today. The Temple Tools minus the Ark of the Covenant, is carved in the marble. The profit from the sack of Jerusalem is used for the Coliseum. The Coliseum was used to burn Christians until Constantine naively adopted Christianity thinking Christians would be model citizens. Still a triumph for the 1,100 Bishops, Priests, Christians proclaiming Jesus Christ for 300 years even if they would be burned alive for it.



Then the Temple Tools carved upon the Arch of Titus, looked like this:















Domitian – Hauled St. John from Ephesus and exiled him to Patmos. Continued to be fearful of Christians. Conducted one of the fiercest battles against Christians. Under Domitan, the Church split in half. Domitan Heresy - the Church is only for saints. Domitan tortured until Christians surrendered every fragment of the Gospels and New Testament he could find. 81-96. Because of Domitan – we have the word traitor. Part of the Church wanted to forever exile anyone who lied to get out of torture or gave up Scripture. Forgiveness is the business of the Church and Jesus Christ.

Because of Domitan, we only have 15 fragments, Ryland Papyrus and Papyrus 46 of the Gospel before 96 AD. But these portions exist and date to 30 AD. Hebrews 9 tells us, when Paul wrote Hebrews, the Second Temple is in operation.

The Love of Jesus Christ opening His arms to slaves, lepers, women, the poor, the wife of the steward of Herod’s household, Nicodemus of the Sanhedrin Council and Josephus. Ian Wilson records a letter from a Jewish rabbi, of Lyracanthra, saying it would be the end of Judaism because of the incredible miracles of healing, restoration, life transformation and complete hope. These are letters confirming the Gospels show the Rabbi to be extremely unhappy. Josephus, the Israeli General turned traitor, turned Historian says Jesus was the Christ and his brother James formed the later Christian Church until martyred in 62 AD.

Hadrian (c. 76 - 138) Foxe's Book of Martyrs -- Persecution Under Trajan...... The forenamed authors, Antoninus and Equilius

Antoninus Pius (c. 86 - 161) Instead of stirring up persecution against the Christians, he extended to them the strong hand of his protection throughout the empire. Rather than give occasion to that oppression which he regarded as inseparable from an emperor's progress through his dominions, he was content to spend all the years of his reign in Rome, or its neighborhood. Under his patronage the science of jurisprudence was cultivated by men of high ability, and a number of humane and equitable enactments were passed in his name. 161 – 180 166 Christian persecution returned - The period was one of ever-increasing calamities. The earthquakes which had alarmed Asia under Antoninus were but the prelude to more serious convulsions. The Tiber rose to an unprecedented height and swept away the public granaries. This was followed by a famine, and that by a pestilence, which spread from Egypt and Ethiopia westward. Everywhere on the frontiers there were murmurs of insurrection or invasion. The year 166 was long known as the "annus calamitosus," and it was in that year that the persecution broke out and that Justin suffered. These calamities roused the superstition of the great mass of the people, and a wild fanaticism succeeded to an epicurean atheism. The gods were wrath, and what had roused their anger but the presence of those who denied them?

Marcus Aurelius (c. 121 - 180) The Thundering Legion incident (174)

During the war with the Quadi in 174 there took place the famous incident of the Thundering Legion (Legio Fulminatrix, Fulminea, Fulminata) which has been a cause of frequent controversy between Christian and non-Christian writers. The Roman army was surrounded by enemies with no chance of escape, when a storm burst. The rain poured down in refreshing showers on the Romans, while the enemy were scattered with lightning and hail. The parched and famishing Romans received the saving drops first on their faces and parched throats, and afterwards in their helmets and shields, to refresh their horses. Marcus obtained a glorious victory as a result of this extraordinary event, and his enemies were hopelessly overthrown.

That such an event did really happen is attested both by pagan and Christian writers. The former attribute the occurrence either to magic (Dion Cassius, LXXI, 8-10) or to the prayers of the emperor (Capitolinus, "Vita Marci", XXIV; Themistius, "Orat. XV ad Theod"; Claudian, "De Sext. Cons. Hon.", V, 340 sqq.; "Sibyl. Orac.", ed. Alezandre, XII, 196 sqq. Cf. Bellori, "La Colonne Antonine", and Eckhel, "Doctrina Nummorum", III, 64). The Christian writers attributed the fact to the prayers of the Christians who were in the army (Claudius Apollinaris in Eusebius, Church History V.5; Tertullian, "Apol.", v; ad Seap. c. iv), and soon there grew up a legend to the effect that in consequence of this miracle the emperor put a stop to the persecution of the Christians (cf. Euseb. and Tert. opp cit.).

It must be conceded that the testimony of Claudius is the most valuable of all that we possess, as he wrote within a few years of the event, and that all credit must be given to the prayers of the Christians given to Tertullian

Lucius Verus (co-emperor) (c. 130 - 169) with Marcus Aurelius
180 - 192

Commodus (c. 161 - 192) All these who failed to follow the decree were brought to the Senate and were tried. This decree was a forceful attempt to put down Christians completely. But the followers who believed in Jesus Christ refused to accept this and many were ready to face the trial. "The Passion of the Scillitan Martyrs" written.

Persecution slows down -

Pertinax (193)

Didius Julianus (193) .

Septimius Severus (193-211) Edict makes it illegal to convert to Christianity; persecution especially in North Africa, ca. 203: Perpetua & Felicity martyred in Carthage (North Africa)

Caracalla (211-217)

Macrinus (217-218)

Diocletian (284-305) Major Empire-Wide Persecution begins ca. 303; confiscation of Christian churches and books; arrest, torture, and execution of many Christian leaders. Personally sends troops to Nazareth, the Bishop of Caesarea Eusibius records Diocletian offering clemency to the nephews carefully recording their ancestry to Jesus Christ. All refuse and are tortured and put to death. Diocletian sends troops to Turkey to place the Bishop Nicholas (also known as St. Nicholas or, in German, Santa Claus, in prison.

& Maximian (286-305) Major Empire-Wide Persecution begins ca. 303; confiscation of Christian Churches and books; arrest, torture, and execution of many Christian leaders

Constantius Chlorus (305-306)
Maxentius (306-312) .
Galerius (305-311)
Licinius (311-323) 311: Edict of Galerius: toleration for Christians, allowing them to worship openly

Constantine was forced as a nephew to the Emperor to go to Nazareth and torture and kill the descendents of the Brothers of Jesus. All refused to decant Jesus. All perished. A week Constantine would have to change his life. Bishop Eusebius is eyewitness to Constantines arrival and departure for this purpose.

Constantine (307-337) 313: Edict of Constantine (Edict of Milan): toleration for all religions, including Christianity; ends persecutions

Constantine's position on the religions traditionally practiced in Rome evolved during his reign. At first he prohibited the construction of new temples and tolerated traditional sacrifices; by the end of his reign, he had begun to order the pillaging and tearing down of Roman temples. The day Christianity officially arrived in the Roman Empire was in 325 A.D. The First Council of Nicaea is regarded as the first Ecumenical Council of the Christian Church. Invited by Emperor Constantine, about 318 world-wide Bishops (including St. Nicholas), who had risked their lives and were condemned for serving Jesus, traveled across continents and oceans, continued to risk their lives in dangerous travel, to express the basis of the Church today and choose the Books of the Bible.

(* The above information was gathered from several sources and paraphrased.)

The triumph of Christianity is actually a very remarkable historical phenomenon

The Roman Colosseum was build by the gold from the destruction of Jerusalem and The Temple of God in 81 A. D.









All these centuries of persecution. Jesus took His Disciples to Caesarea and explained His Church would overcome all darkness even to the gates of hell.

It was the size of the enemy that took the world by surprise. 


IT WAS THE SIZE of THE ENEMY

And the Length of the Fight

THAT TOOK THE WORLD'S NOTICE

And they wanted to know WHY JESUS CHRIST?



When we ask why the Disciples died, we can figure this out pretty quickly. 

But when we consider two more important facts. 1) Why didn't this just pass on by? Even the Roman Emperor Historians were so very intrigued by the events of the Christians of the day.  The Sheer Bravery.  2) We have to consider the Gospels spread by those who wanted to Live and Love and speak of Jesus and move far from the conflict. Carrying the rare papyrus in their hands. Like Papyrus 46. Salvation in Jesus from Living and Speaking and Praying and Loving Others!!!!!


And what is the condition of those who would put down their lives?

Consider King David.  He lived the poverty of being overlooked by his father, Jesse, in the number of good sons. To be a famous young warrior given a princess of Saul's to wed. To become hated by the king. Outlaw. On the run. Family in danger. Mercenary. By passed after Saul and Jonathon died. Passé. Done for. Done in. And crowned with little kingdoms, until the fourth coronation day.

Why would this King risk his throne for what he believed God would give him?


What would King David say upon dying?




2 Samuel 23:1-5



Now, these are the last words of David:
The oracle of David, the son of Jesse,
the oracle of the man who was raised on high,
the anointed of the God of Jacob,
the sweet psalmist of Israel:
2
“The Spirit of the Lord speaks by me;
His Word is on my tongue.
3
The God of Israel has Spoken;
the Rock of Israel has said to me:
When one rules justly over men,
ruling in the fear of God,

He dawns on them 
like the morning Light,
like the sun shining forth on a cloudless morning

Like rain that makes grass to sprout from the earth.

“For does not my house stand so with God?

For He has made with me 
an everlasting covenant,
ordered in all things and secure."


Revelation 22:1 

 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, 
bright as crystal, 
flowing from the throne of God 
and 
of the Lamb




Matthew 5:8 

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 


Abba, Father, 


Know the Scriptures,
Know the Power of God.

And we will believe in the One He has Sent.

Surely, He took on our infirmities 
and carried our sorrows; 
yet, we considered Him stricken by God, 
struck down and afflicted.  

But He was pierced for our transgressions,
 He was crushed for our iniquities; 
the punishment that brought us peace 
was upon Him, 
and by His stripes 
we are healed. 

Each Day we are Blessed 
to ask for more
More Heaven on earth.
More Give us This Day.
More Daily Bread.

The Universe is upheld
by the 
Power of Your Word.

May The Lord God Almighty
His Son Jesus
surround and uphold us
in This Peace.
The Peace is Upheld by God Himself 
and 
we ask
His Blessing and Favor.



Gently, we hand You our Cares
knowing Your Hands hold
this so well.
Tenderly.
And we are Loved and Filled.

We give thanks for
Your Sacrifice
to bring those unworthy
to be adopted into Your Family.
Knowing we are not perfect,
have weakness,
flaws 
and sins.
And draw near to you with confidence
in Jesus Christ
according to Your Will
Your Word
Your Steadfast Love
and Your Promises in Jesus.


Dwell in us
and help us to be Pleasing to You
Dwell in those we Love and Honor
and help us to seek You first
and we will end well in Jesus Christ.


In the Highest Name 
of Jesus Christ,
Amen

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
