Acts 15:35 — l6:40 - Corps Notes - October 14, 1976
Acts 15:35 — l6:40 October 14, 1976 Acts 15:34 This was not in the text, it was added later. (pg. 279) Acts 15:33 It means after a set time; a deliberately set time. They set the date and said “We’ll stay this long and then we’re going back to Jerusalem.” “let go” – dismissed - same as “dismissed” in verse 30 - “dismissed” - not like being dismissed from a meeting; but that they had a big ‘doo’ for them; a nice farewell party for them. I suppose they had cake and ice cream. I was thinking today that I was going to make an assignment to my Corps that’s going to be doing research papers. I am going to put somebody on the words “other” and “another”; heteros and allos. I’m going to have them work every verse in the Word where they are used. It appears here, again, in verse 35. Acts 15:35 “others” - heteros “Paul also” – “but Paul” – delete the word “also” “with many others also” – they were doing the same thing. There were really “twigging” in that city. They had set a space of time earlier for when they were going to leave but, other things had occurred, I’m sure because verse 36 says “some days.” Acts 15:36 “and some days after” - is a certain time, set date - I think it was pre-arranged, where they said, “On October 3 we’re going to get together and then we’re going to go visit the brethren again.” Providentially, I think this was set so that Silas could come back from Jerusalem. Now here is where the second missionary journey of Paul starts which Walter Cummins taught. I’m only going to go through it, not that I can teach you anything about the second journey, but just some things that I just felt in my heart I want to share. “us” – Paul and Barnabas Acts 15:37 “determined” - literally means “contrary to original” - That is really significant because it was God’s will for Paul and Barnabas to go. But Barnabas was one of these good-hearted fellows. Many times his heart would get ahead of the Word and the greatness of God; he’d get tricked. Yet it was Barnabas that w

Tweet Format: mp3-pdf Publication Date: 10-14-1976 On Ephesians 4:25 where I want to begin tonight, or where we will begin tonight , the first part of what the Research Team gave me is the work that Walter Cummins published in our wonderful Way Magazine on "The Spoken Word." Also, as we cover Ephesians 4:28 tonight, I had all the information in front of me from another article that Walter Cummins has in the... has had in the Magazine. The first article on Ephesians 4:25 is entitled "The Spoken Word." The one on Ephesians 4:28 is "Workers for God." Both of these pieces of work by Walter are absolutely superb. And I believe that they should appear and will appear in our research journal GMIR whenever we begin publishing that. {GMIR Aramaic word meaning ' to perfect, accomplish , mature, complete, arithmetically to be divisible without any remainder.} And I noticed again that some of the th
