And upon this Rock

Elder Gaul:
On the day of judgment I shall be calling
you as a witness. Brother Faramade can
relax--I don't need Elder Gaul as a character
witness, but an intellectual one. John,
who wrote the Revelation, was a STUDENT of
the teachings of Christ (hence his knowledge
of God's time and times, and even half of it).
But we are here today discussing, if I might
be precise, the resurrected Christ. Elder
Gaul, is anything too hard for God? What
I mean is, Logos--the word is formed
from the logical reality that exists in
cosmic extension. And it asks:
WHY is it Peter who said this, or
WHY did Peter say this-->

[4] And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
[5] For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
[6] Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
[7] But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
[8] But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
[9] The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The logical FIRST answer would be BECAUSE
doubt existed concerning the promise of
Christ. But what promise is Peter
primarily privy to, since ALL the disciples
were privy to "the Kingdom of Heaven" and
the "Day of judgment." Well...

16] And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
[17] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
[18] And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
[19] And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
[20] Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
[21] From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
[22] Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
[23] But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

Clearly, Peter in the FORMER verse, AFTER this occurrence
ostensibly, NOW sees things in the light of God's time,
binding on earth what is bound "in heaven." The promise
of resurrection is not fulfilled if, and only in spirit,
the argument of Jesus Resurrects, but without the man
Jesus partaking in the victory over death. That man
exists today, in total synoptic form, in the Nation State
of Israel and it is THROUGH him that you will be able
to update your "new scrolls." Not that he is more special
than the other Christs who walk the streets and spread
the good news, but he is HOW you understand the symbolisms
of YHWH in as accurate precision as you are gifted by
his Wisdom and the legacy of the nation he first
spoke through. Three days. This is the third day. In heaven.
