Peter: I was there man, I was there...


Open Door interpreted and/or translated?  NOTES


Non siamo stati, si sa, proprio desiderio su una stella quando abbiamo previsto i fatti prima di voi per quanto riguarda il ritorno potente del nostro Maestro, Gesù Cristo. Eravamo lì per l'anteprima! Lo abbiamo visto con i nostri occhi: Gesù risplende di luce da Dio Padre come la voce di Gloria Majestic parlò: "Questo è mio Figlio, segnati dal mio amore, l'attenzione di tutti la mia gioia." Eravamo lì sul santo monte con lui. Abbiamo sentito la voce dal cielo con le nostre orecchie molto personale.

   Non potremmo essere più sicuri di quello che abbiamo visto e sentito gloria di Dio, la voce di Dio. La Parola profetica è stato confermato a noi. Farete bene a tenere concentrandosi su di esso. E 'l'unica luce che hai in un periodo buio, come si attende l'aurora e il sorgere della Stella del Mattino nei vostri cuori. La cosa principale da tenere a mente è che nessuna profezia della Scrittura è una questione di opinioni personali. E perché? Perché non è qualcosa di inventato nel cuore umano. Profezia risultato quando lo Spirito Santo viene richiesto uomini e alle donne di parlare la Parola di Dio.



2 Peter 1:16-21 (The Message)
   16 -18We weren't, you know, just wishing on a star when we laid the facts out before you regarding the powerful return of our Master, Jesus Christ. We were there for the preview! We saw it with our own eyes: Jesus resplendent with light from God the Father as the voice of Majestic Glory spoke: "This is my Son, marked by my love, focus of all my delight." We were there on the holy mountain with him. We heard the voice out of heaven with our very own ears.
   19 -21We couldn't be more sure of what we saw and heard—God's glory, God's voice. The prophetic Word was confirmed to us. You'll do well to keep focusing on it. It's the one light you have in a dark time as you wait for daybreak and the rising of the Morning Star in your hearts. The main thing to keep in mind here is that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of private opinion. And why? Because it's not something concocted in the human heart. Prophecy resulted when the Holy Spirit prompted men and women to speak God's Word.

Interpretation

an explanation or way of explaining : this action is open to a number of interpretations.
a stylistic representation of a creative work or dramatic role : two differing interpretations, both bearing the distinctive hallmarks of each writer's perspective.

Translation
1 the process of translating words or text from one language into another : Constantine's translation of Arabic texts into Latin.
a written or spoken rendering of the meaning of a word, speech, book, or other text, in another language : a German translation of Oscar Wilde's play | a term for which there is no adequate English translation.
the conversion of something from one form or medium into another : the translation of research findings into clinical practice.
Biology the process by which a sequence of nucleotide triplets in a messenger RNA molecule gives rise to a specific sequence of amino acids during synthesis of a polypeptide or protein.

HOW to INTERPRET SCRIPTURE (apply it)
  • Context  & Background
  • Look for pervasive, big themes.. not single points
  • Correlation between Old&New Testament is what.. New is fulfillment of the old
  • Filter through Jesus’ actions
  • Trust HOLY SPIRIT within you to teach you.. explain to you… help you…
  • Filter through your service…
  • PRACTICE!!


Practice: ELEM ELEY
WHAT is practice? According to Merriam-Webster, practice is “systematic exercise for proficiency.” Practice must involve experimenting/improvising (creative energy), but it is primarily to channel that energy into training. Practice is the investment of hours and years to build a resilient, dependable technique (method of carrying out a skilled activity). Practice is what one does to bridge the gap between his/her best intentions or dreams, and reality. In other words, practice is making consistent the application of desired choices; one practices making choices, so that they become “second nature,” automatic, as natural as breathing.
WHY practice? Learning without application is of questionable value; in a skill such as singing, learning is arguably worthless—unless validated by consistent practice. One does not learn to sing only in the voice lesson; vital concepts are introduced there, but the student builds with and upon those concepts/techniques in the practice room (studio class, the coaching studio, the opera rehearsal, the choral rehearsal, in performances…). It is important that techniques introduced in the lesson be promptly, thoroughly and regularly supported by generous amounts of time in practice. Much influence comes from teachers, coaches, conductors, colleagues, etc., but the student must embrace his/her right and responsibilities as Chair of the Vocal Board.

"It is God's Spirit and only God's Spirit that can rightly interpret the words of life to our spirits. That's why I pray that God will help me to stick to the text when preaching, not doing so much of what I used to do, showing off my cross referencing skills and making things fit my world view, but presenting texts in a way that will encourage thought and promote personal seeking of God, Then trust the Holy Spirit ti interpret the material to the heart of individuals, who knows, he may have a different message for each of us all from the same passage. One thing is for sure, we all have a different ministry." Reverend Ricky Barnes

Church freedom: freedom of the local church from outside interference, whether government or civilian (subject only to the law where it does not interfere with the religious teachings and practices of the church)
Bible freedom: the individual is free to interpret the Bible for himself or herself, using the best tools of scholarship and biblical study available to the individual
Religious freedom: the individual is free to choose whether to practice their religion, another religion, or no religion; Separation of church and state is often called the "civil corollary" of religious freedom
