Luke 12:1 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware you of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

Leaven puffs bread up; hypocrisy, which is lying (John 8:44), is what the Pharisees et al used in conning others to believe in their 'authority'.

Luke 12:2,3 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever you have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light and that which you have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.

Luke 12:4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body and after that have no more that they can do.

Luke 12:5 But I will forewarn you whom you shall fear. Fear him, which after he has killed.(original is 'separated', that is, killing separates the physical body from the spirit we all have).has power to cast into hell.(showing the power of Creator-God is not restricted to just the physical world and just what is 'hell'? and, does God kill?); yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

There is no death. When you pass on, you pass on without your physical body. gene Decode's video about his amazing life, covers him dying and coming back; most interesting and informative.

The verse here is speaking of, since God is all powerful, He possesses the means to not just kill but to render.invalid the functioning of anyone's spirit, but He has a plan to save all, including those passed on, from the attitudes that would cause the Creator to even consider doing this to an individual and that plan, depending upon just how evil one's spirit has become since his or her birth, is a plan of love, how?

Luke 12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings.and not one of them is forgotten before God?

Original for word God here is in the original, 'theos', meaning, 'whatever can in any respect be likened unto God or resemble him in any way' and such is the Invisible Infinite Intelligent Energy behind all creation, even behind those Gods who exist because of it and who created humanity with the specific energy formation which was them and out of which came both all in the universe including the evil and good things of this realm of life on Earth:.Revelation 4:9.

See more names of God.

Luke 12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.(Matthew 10:29-31). Fear not therefore. You are of more value than many sparrows.

Luke 12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.

Luke 12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess.(Matthew 10:32,33; original for 'confess' is 'out and away from' and 'be in agreement with' {Amos 3:3; 1John 1:9} and 'to be in alignment with', to 'acknowledge', that is, confessing something is to admit to yourself {God notices it} that you are responsible for what you may have done and now want to be of good actions and honest mind, which is wanting to change, called repenting:.Romans 12:2,16; Philippians 2:5; in other places such as James 5:16 it's a little different).me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.

Christ being the only way into the kingdom of the Father, the kingdom of God, shows us the key to having the angels who are aligned with Creator-God (are of same high consciousness) help us in this life:.Psalms 91:11,12; Matthew 4:11; 18:10; 26:53; Hebrews 13:2; also shows this harmony includes one with other beings having a spiritual nature. Peter however, was of the mind that Emmanuel's return would be an occasion attended by all (Mark 8:31-33) and that all would then see and be in awe. Instead Christ returned in a way expected only by those present at the day of Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit would now reside within the believing spirit of each man's soul:.Acts 2:1-4. And what can a gift of the spirit now do for you?

Robertson Word Pictures:."Shall confess me" is an Aramaic.idiom, not Hebrew. So also here, "him will I also confess". Literally this Aramaic idiom reproduced in the Greek means "confess in me", indicating a sense of unity with Christ and of Christ with the man who takes the open stand for him.".Vincent Word Studies:."The idea is that of confessing Christ.(so, 'confessing' is 'being in agreement' and Christ is a body of believers).out of a state of oneness with him:.John 15:4,7. It implies identification of the confessor with the confessed and thus takes confession out of the category of mere formal or verbal acknowledgment:.Matthew 7:21. The true confessor of Christ is one whose faith rests in him. Observe that this gives great force to the corresponding clause, in which Christ places himself in a similar relation with those whom he confesses:.John 17:23. Then what about confessing sins to God?

Luke 12:9 But he that denies me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

Luke 12:10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But unto him that blasphemes against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.(oh, really?).

Luke 12:11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues and unto magistrates and powers, take you no thought how or what thing you shall answer, or what you shall say.

Luke 12:12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what you ought to say.

Luke 12:13,14 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me...And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?

Luke 12:15 And he said unto them, Take heed and beware of covetousness. For a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses.

Luke 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully.

Luke 12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

Luke 12:18 And he said, This will I do. I will pull down my barns and build greater and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

Luke 12:19 And I will say to myself, you have much goods laid up for many years. Take thine ease, eat, drink and be merry.

Luke 12:20 But God said unto him, You fool, this night your soul may be required of you. Then whose shall those things be, which you have provided for yourself?

Luke 12:21 So is he that lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.

Luke 12:22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought.(original is 'anxious thought, worry').for your life, what you shall eat, neither for the body, what you shall put on.

Luke 12:23 The life is more than meat.('meat' means 'food')(the Creator looks after one's necessities according to our faith).and the body is more than raiment.(clothing).

Luke 12:24 Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap which neither have storehouse nor barn and God feeds them. How much more are you better than the fowls?

Luke 12:25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?

Luke 12:26 If you then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take you thought.(original is 'anxious thought, worry').for the rest?

Always thinking of the self, what can he do to protect and keep all that's his?

Luke 12:27 Consider the lilies how they grow. They toil not, they spin not and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Luke 12:28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?

If the Creator covers with so much glory things of no further value than to serve temporary uses, will he not take care of his servants, who are precious in his sight and designed for such an important purpose? And if you have little faith, but do want to believe, consider what Bruno will do for you.

Luke 12:29 And seek not you what you shall eat or what you shall drink, neither be you of doubtful mind.

Luke 12:30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after. And your Father knows that you have need of these things.

Luke 12:31 But rather seek the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you.

Luke 12:32.Fear not little flock for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

This kingdom also called realm, is not an outward thing, but when you have it you get many outward things, once you know how to use the gift God gave you. Using it properly enables what you see as true in one's mind, being true for you (Galatians 1:8,9), to come into physical manifestation. See Bob Proctor speak in the movie.The Grand Self.for more on how to work this to your benefit and also learn how to benefit others.

Hebrews 12:28 "Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and Godly fear." 2Peter 1:11 "For so, an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Emmanuel the Christ."

Luke 12:33.Sell that you have and give alms.(alms is money or goods given to those in need out of mercy and a kind heart:.Ephesians 4:28; Romans 12:8; Ephesians 6:8). Provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that fails not, where no thief approaches, neither moth corrupts..(?)

Luke 12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Luke 12:35-39 Let your loins be girded about and your lights burning; And you yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he comes and knocks, they may already be open unto him.(how?). Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he comes shall find watching. Verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself and make them to sit down to meat and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch or come in the third watch and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not have suffered his house to be broken into.

Luke 12:40 Be you therefore ready also. For the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not.

Luke 12:41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speak you this parable unto us or even to all?

Luke 12:42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?

Luke 12:43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he comes shall find so doing.

Don't wait to be good sometime later. Be good now and continuously!

Luke 12:44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he has.

Luke 12:45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delays his coming.('God all this is taking so long, I'll just go back to the way I was before').and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens.(as those of the cabal have done in their self inflicted narcissim).and to eat and drink and to be drunken,

Luke 12:46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looks not for him and at an hour when he is not aware and will cut him in sunder and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

Luke 12:47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will.(knew to do good, but didn't).and prepared not himself.(how?), neither did according to his will.(as many in Old Testament times were like:.Jeremiah 44:16,17), shall be beaten with many stripes.

Not literally. Why? It's just showing here in this verse that the actions in the story he was telling to make a point, were not acceptable.

James 4:17.

Luke 12:48 But he that knew not and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes.(awakening to the lesson is the important thing). For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

God won't put you somewhere in a position you're not ready for. Learn, learn, learn.

Luke 12:49 I am come to send fire on the Earth and what will I, if it be already kindled?.(?)

Barnes Notes: Emmanuel is saying in this verse that the result of His coming will be that there will be divisions and contentions. He does not mean that he came for that purpose or that he sought and desired it, but that such was the state of the human heart and such the opposition of men to the truth, that it would be the effect of his coming:.Matthew 10:34. Fire here is the emblem of discord and contention and consequently of calamities. Thus it is used in Psalms 66:11,12; Isaiah 43:2. And what do we have today all over the Earth?

Luke 12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with and how am I straitened.(or, how am I to carry on this road I came to travel until I have done this?.Matthew 3:13-17).till it be accomplished!

Luke 12:51 Suppose you that I am come to give peace on Earth? I tell you, Nay, but rather division.

Division between the low consciousness ego mind of humanity and the higher consciousness mind of the Infinite One, which is love. How to be in higher consciousness. It plays out on Earth in the battle we are now engaged in, that of good versus evil.

This is talking about the separation of those who are hateful, greed filled, obstinate and selfish. What did he say about those who are not that way?.John 14:27.

Luke 12:52,53 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

How is this 'peace'?

Luke 12:54-56 And he said also to the people When you see a cloud rise out of the west straightway you say, There comes a shower and so it is. And when you see the south wind blow you say, There will be heat and it comes to pass. You hypocrites you can discern the face of the sky and of the Earth but how is it that you do not discern this time?

It's the blindness of the ego level which has separated us from contact with the soul. How to break free and into a new era for yourself, your family and others you are close to and care about.

Luke 12:57 Yea and why even of yourselves judge you not what is right?

Luke 12:58,59 When thou goe with your adversary to the magistrate, as you are in the way, give diligence that you may be delivered from him.(do your best to work out an agreement with him and in doing so keeping yourself out of prison); lest he hale you to the judge and the judge deliver you to the officer and the officer cast you into prison. I tell you, you shall not depart thence, till you have paid the very last mite.
