Պատարագ 10:00 - Քարոզ 11:15 Ôàôβê (4:16-21) GOSPEL Luke 4:16 – 21 Jesus Rejected at Nazareth He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, and he began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” (On Page 1018 in your Bible) EPISTLE Galatians 4: 3-7 So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.

From the October 15th issue of Crossroads THE HOLY EVANGELISTS This Saturday, October 17, the Armenian Church commemorates the Holy Evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, the authors of the four Gospels. The word Evangelist comes from the GreekEuaggelistes which means “one who brings good news.” Evangelists are given the special ability by the Holy Spirit to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ clearly and effectively. In the early days of the church evangelism was the work of the apostles. By the third century, the authors of the four canonical Gospels became known as the Holy Evangelists, and as the church grew “evangelist” began to denote a specific office that could include “apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers” (see Ephesians 4:11-12). All four died martyrs. Matthew is the patron of the Church’s mission. The Gospel attributed to him closes with Jesus’ command to His disciples and followers to, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20) Mark had significant influence on the advancement of Christianity. Although the Gospel according to Mark is a narrative of the life of Jesus, theologians consider it to be a handbook of discipleship. The dominant message is that being a Christian is not only believing in Jesus Christ, it is also living according to the example set by Jesus. According to tradition, Mark was the first bishop of Alexandria. One of the most magnificent cathedrals in the world is named after him in Venice, where his relics are kept. Luke is the author of the third Gospel and the Book of Acts. He is considered to be the patron of physicians and artists. The Gospel according to Luke describes Jesus as “the healer of a broken world.” Luke is also noted for his concern for the poor, the marginalized, women, and social outcasts. His Gospel does not end with the Resurrection, but continues to Pentecost and the eternal presence of Christ in the world. Traditionally he is believed to be one of the Seventy and the unnamed disciple in Emmaus. John, often called the “beloved disciple,” is the author of the fourth Gospel. He was the only one of the twelve disciples who did not forsake Christ and stood at the foot of the Cross. Jesus entrusted his mother to John’s care on the day of the Crucifixion. The best known verse in his Gospel is John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” According to tradition, John left Jerusalem after attending the first ecumenical council and went to Asia Minor and settled in Ephesus. He was exiled to the island of Patmos where he wrote the book of Revelation, although more recently scholars have concluded that John the Apostle and John of Patmos were two different people. ************************************* SAVE THE DATES SATURDAY & SUNDAY NOVEMBER 14TH &15TH Armenian Fest 2015 at Rhodes on the Pawtuxet NOTICE OF CANCELLATION The Community Meeting regarding “News and information about the Armenian Community in Syria” Scheduled for Saturday October 17, 2015 at Aramian Auditoirm, Sts.

  • We Heard John's Jesus Say. “I Know Them, and They Follow Me.”
    Fourth Sunday in Pascha Acts 9:36-43 | John 10:22-30 May 12th, 2019 The Rev. John Forman Now in Joppa there was a disciple whose name was Tabitha, which in Greek is Dorcas. She was devoted to good works and acts of charity. At that time she became ill and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in a room upstairs. Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, who heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him with the request, "Please come to us without delay." So Peter got up and went with them; and when he arrived, they took him to the room upstairs. All the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was with them. Peter put all of them outside, and then he knelt down and prayed. He turned to the body and said, "Tabitha, get up." Then she opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, she sat up. He gave her his hand and helped her up. Then calling the saints and widows, he showed her to be alive. This became known throughout Joppa, and many believed in the Lord. Meanwhile he stayed in Joppa for some time with a certain Simon, a tanner. “My sheep hear my voice,” we heard John’s Jesus say. “I know them, and they follow me.” From Revelation, John of Patmos gave us an image of Christ as the shepherd and the Lamb guiding a great multitude to springs of the water of life “from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages.” Just before that, we prayed what many hold dear as their favorite psalm: “The LORD is my shepherd...” In all the richness and familiarity of the readings for this Good Shepherd Sunday, one voice gets lost.

  • The Allegory of the Book of Revelation
    The Allegory of the Book of Revelation 17th Degree Essay College of the Consistory By David E. Amstutz, KCCH Valley of Richmond Orient of Virginia October 1, 2007 “The Almighty is the great mechanic of the creation; the first philosopher and original teacher of all science. Let us, then, learn to reverence our master, and let us not forget the labors of our ancestors.” (Paine, 1794) Prelude The theme of the 17th Degree is that divine revelation is expressed in several religious beliefs having their origins in the ‘Orient and Occident’; and, that the Essenes believed it man’s duty to gather and mold these fragments of divine revelation into a harmonious whole (Clausen, 1974). The bringing together of ideas from the various beliefs, which was necessary for the Essenes to accomplish what they did, resulted from the conquering of Alexander and the subsequent multi-national use of the Greek language. Pike (1857) makes liberal use of the symbolism and words of the Book of Revelation in the 17th Degree ritual and lecture. The Book of Revelation is composed in a style which suits Pike’s purposes for the 17th Degree perfectly. Pike’s 17th Degree ritual conveys the events described in the Book of Revelation, imbuing them with Masonic meaning (Hutchens, 1995). The College of the Consistory synopsis of the 17th Degree states that beliefs originating in the middle-east held that a Redeemer was to come. According to Hutchens (1995) the Book of Revelation expresses the idea that the Second Coming of Christ will be preceded by worldwide catastrophe and followed by an extinguishment of evil.

  • APOCALYPTICISM, ESCHATOLOGY, and REVELATION 11:19 -- 12:18: CONQUERING CHAOS and EVIL DURING the APOCALYPSE by CYNTHIA ANNE MILLER SMITH
    APOCALYPTICISM, ESCHATOLOGY, AND REVELATION 11:19 -- 12:18: CONQUERING CHAOS AND EVIL DURING THE APOCALYPSE by CYNTHIA ANNE MILLER SMITH (Under the Direction of Wayne Coppins) ABSTRACT This thesis largely consists of an exegetical commentary on Revelation 11:19 -- 12:18, the section about the Woman/Virgin Mary/Ark of the Covenant/Israel/the Church in the agony of giving birth to the Messiah/Christ/Anointed and the cosmic war between Michael and the Dragon who also fights against the Woman's seed. It contains a discussion of who the Woman is, who are her faithful seed, and how the text is a non-Christian Jewish original later redacted by a Christian editor, John of Patmos. Apocalyptic literature is described as a popular genre, found also in the Book of the prophet Daniel to which Revelation is related, that John the Divine uses to emphasize that Jesus will usher in the eschaton so that eventually Satan/evil is defeated and God/good triumphs. This passage is the focal point that holds the entire revelation together, and also functions as a transition to the remainder of the text.

Friend Reviews. Escape the Present with These 24 Historical Romances. Who wrote it? Pagels also discusses how due to the thematic broadness of much of what John wrote he created imagery that has over two millennia been capable of being projected onto any perceived threat of the moment. Revelation was probably written about 70 years after the death of Jesus. There was nothing in the book with which to define who the faithful and the damned actually were, so it was fun for the whole family. According to John, it is essential to understand that the Second Coming is a cosmic event not just an earthly one. The book claims to be about the Book of Revelation, not about church history and the interpersonal conflicts of various individuals who lived well after the book was written. Jeffrey MacDonald, the handsome, Princeton-educated physician convicted of savagely slaying his young pregnant wife and two small children—murders he vehemently denies committing It also has a lot of church history in it, as well as discussions about apocryphal books, writings that did not make it into the Bible or have 'official church sanction' to be considered 'valid' books. Author Elaine Pagels includes here discussion of not only John of Patmos's Book of Revelations , so well-known from the New Testament, but also discussion of the numerous revelation texts found at Nag Hammadi in Upper Egypt in A timely, vividly realized reminder to slow down and harness the restorative wonders of serenity.

  • Revelation 12: Female Figures and Figures of Evil
    Word & World Volume XV, Number 2 Spring 1995 Revelation 12: Female Figures and Figures of Evil JOY A. SCHROEDER University of Notre Dame Notre Dame, Indiana HE TWELFTH CHAPTER OF THE APOCALYPSE DESCRIBES A HEAVENLY WOMAN Tclothed with the sun and crowned with twelve stars. Together with the Bride of Christ and the Whore of Babylon, she is one of three symbolic women who ap- pear in the visions of John of Patmos. A fourth woman, apparently an influential teacher in the church in Thyatira, is regarded by John as a false prophet, a “Jeze- bel” (Rev 2:20). Each woman of the Apocalypse is unequivocally aligned either with God or with Satan. These female images are part of a system of symbols used by an author who speaks to his audience in code. The woman of Revelation 12 is the mother of a son who is snatched into heaven. She is persecuted by a dragon, flees into the wilderness, and there is nour- ished by God. This symbolic woman has been variously interpreted as the Virgin Mary, Israel, Eve, and the church. In actuality, her identity is multifaceted. This es- say will explore the many aspects of her identity, examining those which are de- rived from the Old Testament, as well as those which come from sources outside the Bible. In particular, I will explore the woman’s relationship to the dragon, since this will shed light on how we are to understand the woman. I. THE QUEEN OF HEAVEN At the opening of chapter 12, John of Patmos describes his vision of a heav- enly woman persecuted by a dragon: And a great sign appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and the JOY SCHROEDER is a Lutheran pastor and a doctoral student at the University of Notre Dame.

The date might be 06/06/06, but no one is predicting anything particularly evil happening today. Unless, that is, you consider the slew of commerce to which we are to be subjected. Heading the slate today is The Omen, making a rare Tuesday premiere to take advantage of the supposedly demonic date. Thrash metal veterans Slayer launch the Unholy Alliance Tour tonight in San Diego; supporting artists include Mastodon, Lamb of God and Thine Eyes Bleed. And conservative pundit Ann Coulter will be haranguing readers with her newest screed, Godless: The Church of Liberalism. Of greater concern, officials around the world are on alert for outbursts of mayhem inspired by the date. In Carroll County, Liberty High School Principal Florence Oliver has promised to increase police presence and forbid students from wearing trench coats today to allay concerns from what she has called "unsubstantiated rumors" warning of "Columbine-like violence." All of which demonstrates the power of 666, the much-remarked-upon but little-understood number that is identified in the New Testament Book of Revelation as the "Mark of the Beast" - and has spread, courtesy of horror movies and heavy metal lyrics, to a position of general notoriety in the popular culture.

  • December 29 Karen Walhof
    TabLET Talk Faith stories from Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd December 29, 2020 By Karen Walhof The month of December offers several significant commemorations or lesser festivals highlighting key people or events in the history of the church. As we prepare for the Savior’s coming, we celebrate these church leaders who gave their lives to share the Good News. John, Apostle and Evangelist Observed on December 27 John was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. Generally listed as the youngest apostle, he was the son of Zebedee and Salome. His brother was James, another apostle. He has been identified as John the Evangelist, John of Patmos, John the Elder, and the Beloved Disciple. Tradition says that he outlived the remaining apostles and that he was the only one to die of natural causes. John, along with Peter and James, was a witness of several events in Jesus’ ministry that other apostles did not witness – e.g., the raising of the daughter of Jairus, the Transfiguration, and Jesus’ agony in Gethsemane. John alone among the apostles remained near Jesus at the foot of the cross on Calvary, alongside numerous women. Following the instruction of Jesus from the cross, John took Mary, the mother of Jesus, into his care. After Jesus' ascension and the descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, John together with Peter took a prominent part in the founding and guidance of the church. He remained in Judea and the surrounding area. Paul, in opposing his enemies in Galatia, recalls that John explicitly, along with Peter and James, were referred to as "pillars of the church." Church tradition has held that John is the author of the Gospel of John and four other books of the New Testament – the three epistles of John and the book of Revelation.

  • John the Apostle
    John the Apostle John the Apostle (Aramaic: Yohanan Yohanan Ben Zavdai c. AD יוחנן בן זבדי :Shliha; Hebrew 6 – c. 100) was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus according to the New Testament. He was the son of Zebedee and Salome. His brother was James, who was another of the Twelve Apostles. Christian tradition holds that he outlived the remaining apostles and that he was the only one not to die a martyr’s death. The Church Fa- thers consider him the same person as John the Evange- list, John of Patmos, and the Beloved Disciple. The tra- dition of many Christian denominations holds that he is the author of several books of the New Testament. 1 New Testament author Church tradition holds that John is the author of the Gospel of John and four other books of the New Tes- tament — the three Epistles of John and the Book of Revelation. In the Gospel, authorship is internally cred- ited to the "disciple whom Jesus loved"(ὁ μαθητὴς ὃν ἠγάπα ὁ Ἰησοῦς, o pathētēs on ēgapa o Iēsous) in John 20:2. John 21:24 claims that the Gospel of John is based on the written testimony of the “Beloved Disciple”. The authorship of some Johannine literature has been de- bated since about the year 200.[3][4] Some doubt that the “Gospel of John” was written by an individual named Nevertheless, the notion of .(יוחנן John” (Ἰωάννης or“ “John the Evangelist” exists, and is usually thought of as the same as the Apostle John. In his Ecclesiastical History, Eusebius says that the first epistle of John and the gospel of John are widely agreed upon as his.
