Three Wishes: Grace Mercy Peace.

Sadly many parents, teachers, and preachers occupied in train up a child "the way" a child should "go" (Proverbs 22:6) are themselves childish adults, adult hypocrites who "oppose themselves" with oxymorons and feud amongst themselves as them vs them; When the Lord is longsuffering to "us-ward" (not them-ward).

The way a child should go is neither the broad way nor the narrow way of two ways, but the "more excellent way" of three ways called the "new and living way"; Yet albeit such is of the narrow way which (only) "leadeth" unto life, just as we (us) are "of them" who believe to the saving of the soul, of two thems and one us:

1. Them: who draw back to perdition
2. Them: who believe to the saving of the soul
3. Us: neither of them, but of them who believe

Sadly many of "them" of the second sort of two thems still look for a Son of Man to return with vengeful wrath upon others (whom they hope to rule and reign with a 1,000 yrs); Not knowing (forgive "them", for they "know not" what they do) that the "Son of Man" they look for (which is not the "Son of God") has but one thing in store for "them all" (goats and sheep of such diviion all left/right sides): "destruction" via "law worketh wrath": Rom 4:15. Such is clarified for "them all" in Lk 17: 27-30, and in 1Thes 5:3; Whereas God hath not appointed "us" unto wrath is noted in 1Thes 5:9, to denote their "law worketh wrath", and such "no escape" destruction, is both "of them" who say Peace and safety (Grace and law; safety in law worketh wrath) and backfires on "them"... a good reason to convert to "us".

Sadly many of them folk pride themselves on being "children" of God, which is albeit the better sort of two sorts of children mentioned in Mt 13 and Rom 9; But does not give more earnest heed to the higher exhortation to "be no more children" in Eph 4 (neither sort in Mt 13 and Rom 9). Rather Paul exhorts "put away childish things": laws, to be man kind of child/man in 1Cor 13:11. And such speaks of the third thing of three things:

1. Children of flesh (children of the wicked)
2. Children of God (children of the kingdom)
3. Put away childish things: be no more children

Sadly many adults are still being childish, by refusing to put away their law law, witch is like a law <=> law merry go round going both ways tossing even "children" of God to and fro. And such not only tosses children to and fro, but such a law <=> law childish merry go round goes both ways of broad and narrow ways; For such law => law going this way makes one prosleyte: twofold: more the "child" of hell, also produces all manner of (evil) "concupiscence" via "another law" of two laws in Rom 7 & 8.

And law <= law gets to be a latter end worse (Mt 12:45; 2Pet 2:20) instead of latter end better, when the 2nd of two laws gives place to the 1st, as in Revelation 13's allegoric mention of two laws being as two beasts uprising from sea and land(earth). So the second law of Rom 8:2 no more voids the first law of such law law than a law of aerodynamics voids the law of gravity; not for long. It may temporarily over-ride it, but not for long. And when the first law kicks in again, by having been given place by the second law, ya come crashing down to earth as if cast down by the tail of a dragon.

So also the second and better sort of two servants are exhorted "thou art no more servant, but a son"; For Christ: the end of the law, is also notably the end of the law "for righteousness" of such childish lefteousness and righteousness, where many only want to be right to make others wrong, accusing others and excusing themselves. Such who "oppose themselves" with law law are exhorted to "recover themsleves" with grace, instead of covering up their law imputed sin (death thereof) with more law of such law law. Sacrifice is "of the law", which never pleased God.

1. Servants: of sin (Rom 6)
2. Servants: of righteousness (Rom 6)
3. Thou art no more servant, but a son: Gal 4

The moral of such things are an allegory, is train up a child in "the way" a child should "go". And the way a child (including childish adults) should "go" is: "go" learn what meaneth "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice", also "go" on unto perfection, which is all mercy and no sacrifice at all, via all grace and no law at all, which is then all peace and no division (war) at all. Such is "the way" a child should "go", which is not the broad way which leads to destruction, nor even the narrow way which only "leadeth" unto life; but the "more excellent" way called "charity" never faileth because it's "greatest" of three things, which is not just new of old/new, but "the new and living way":

1. Broad Way: Old (leave old law worketh wrath)
2. Narrow Way: New: leadeth unto life, by go on
3. A More Excellent Way: New and "Living" Way

In the third day he will raise "us" up, and we shall "live" in his sight. So perhaps the third day also speaks of the third way, of three ways, only the third of such being the living way, for the second of such only "leadeth" unto life, and such life can also be temporal life such as life + death = a dead end. Whereas the eternal sort of life has no dead end, and because it has no law of grace + law = life + death.

The "grace" of our Lord "Jesus Christ" with you all. Amen.
