I publish the following here also for common consumption.

I admit before the assembly of GOd, and all of you, that

Today I have a great sin: I acted like Peter, so loving the

Lord, but not quite making his case, wholeheartedly,

vehemently, and susinctly...I did not defend the lord, when

in the assembly, I stood, took reservations with the erudite,

(Double-learned), to stand in the assembly and make the

LORDS CASE. Instead, I took the low low low road of

merely, submitting and clarifying my rebuttle.

 

He Is the Lord of Lords, and for the record: he was perfected

in the Garden, "Father, not my will, but thy will."

 

In essence, he never failed in his human experiece. He

was adversarial in in dealings with the Pharases and Saducees.

He submitted to the Father, at baptism and I have to stand up

next time anything unclear, misleading or erred comes in view.

LISTEN CAREFULLY, EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE!

He transcended Humanity, he was not, in Matthew 15 or anywhere else

ignoring the sinner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was angry by the

sin of the woman, wanted her to repent, (to HIS satisfaction),

and thats it.

************************TODAYS LESSON*************************

Acknowledge your sinfulness, speak to THE LORD, accept that

Jesus did it all for you, that he's been there, that when the

Lord is no longer angry, because he doesnt want to remain angry,

he will forgive you in HIS TIME>

 

ATTENTION: The Rev. Mark Francisco Bozzuti-Jones:

Dear Reverend:

I rushed to you at end of services today, and
offered you that (Mathew 15:10-28) our reading
for the day, spoke of many things great and small.

Please forgive the intrusion at the end of
services, but I ALMOST, (Which doesnt count, Rosemarie), stood up to clarify the teaching
on Jesus that you and I share at our core,
thus being CHristians...it is unheard of in
my time for one to stand up, (Particularly in
the international community and on TV), and
suggest a clarity and come forward even as
far as to rebuke, or express concern to
the Clergy. THe idea: you are the expert on
THe Law, THe Lord and Redemption, not I....
Im a sheep he has come to redeem, clothe,
and bathe in his honor, love, and family.

So, I digress, please accept this in the spirit
for which it is written: I am merely a foot
sholdier, coming back to the leaders with my report, my view...

Here goes:

Jesus is said to have IGNORED the woman who was beseaching him, in earnest for the sake of her daughter, (You agree)...He did not answer when she called out, (you agree?)...then why
would he not answer the call to GOD Himself
for the sake of someone ill?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I remind you, in hind-sight,
(HOw convenient, Rosemarie), that at the crusifixion Jesus calls THe Father, and because of his burden, as the intercessor, the
CHrist, making redemption for all, he is
hanging there Calling the Father and not getting the response he wished for...

Notable it is, The Father did perhaps answer
everyone that day, even before, unto, and since
I submit, my own observation, that THE LORD< THE FATHER answered by sending an earthquake
to man.

Back to the surmon, Rosemarie....Jesus appears
to be ignoring her. He is not!!!!! He is God
THe Father, SOn and HOly Spirit. He is offended by the sins of the woman, and only after she DOESNT stop petitioning HIM, (She is
steadfast in her faith!) He answers, cleanses her and her daughter in connection to their faith.
We stopped short, where he did not (appear) to
answer...but remember the Lord Abhors the sinful part of our nature, he is repulsed by
our inpurity, HIMSELF being purity.

Ok, OK, Do y ou follow?
Watch: THe desciples came to urge JESUS to turn away for the annoying woman who keeps yelling. She is crying out to GOD from the depths! As psalms says of DAVID.

He says two things that maintain what Im getting at, this is the structure of this
rebuttle.

(Note that first, being a decendent of David
doesnt earn anyone "brownie-boyscout points)"

He would not send her away. He is GOD. "Let the
children, (All of us mere humans, with our flaws and foilables) come to ME: (GOD).

She came. He was repulsed by her sinfulness, and required her to have greater faith, to display it, FATIH IS A BEAUTIFUL GIFT, AND ALL
THESE GREAT AN D SMALL COME FROM GOD. (LIKE I SHOULD HAVE IN FRONT OF THE
ASSEMBLY OF GOD, IN NY AND THE WORLD TODAY..A SIN OF OMISSION).

He says, I was sent only to the lost hseep of the hosue of Israel.":There were twelve tribes, where there not? Judah, and Israel,
problem children and regular children.

He means: I have come to bring forward the
Jew first, then the Gentile, the pagan and
the heathen....He came to each in his kind
one at a time. He wants to redeem all: he sits and speaks to tax men and harlots and heathens,
to gather them together. For there is Great Joy
in Heaven when on sinner repents than when a
pius individual does good.

He listened, he waited and because the Lord never stops listening to us, even in the moments that he seems not to be listening, he
is being patient, ominipotent, omniscient,
he will not be angry forever, that this is
part of the lesson I digress.

imagine: "It is not fair to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs."
He says, (He is the childrens "Food"), is he not?

The children are the part of creation to be
saved and delivered by his perfect sacrifice.
THe "DOGS" are those fallen angels, demons and
the devil himself.

NOte: The severity of being a dog is equivilent
to being a heathen, only worse, because it
refers to a great distance between the creature and his maker...But in the Presence,
even Demons, ginis, and Jin will repent. We know that they do, because Jesus came back from
death, hell and judgement to deliver eveyone,
even those who are most disdainful to him in
their current condition.

She repents, submits to THe Lord, has a contrite heart and says: "Yes, Lord, yet event he dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their
masters' table.

Jesus, apparently is satisfied, with her rebuke of herself, which is NOT expressed, but
is rather implied. He relieves her burden and
cures the daughter of the woman because of
her FAITH that although a sinner, she repented
and was vigilant in her pursuit of Piety.

Rev, Im sorry! but had we not been on TV
I probably would have publicly rejected parts of you surmon...in the sake of respect, and
pending further query and purusal of my own first...to be sure what I wanted to say,
to be sure what THE LORD would have me say,
and in the interest of time, I submit this
elogated ESSAY, if you will, in response.

Back again, Jesus agrees with her: even demons
will repent; only satan himself will not repent
in the presence of the King of Kings.

This is what I take from the passage.

Also, note that Although Devine and human,
he is not showing himself merely human, or
obviously more human at that moment, I submit,
he is Showing the sure sign that he is the FATHER TOO! patiently waiting for his anger
to cool, always listening, watching waiting
and rejoicing in the Love of God, Father, SOn
and holy spirit.

He is instead, I submit, quiet the contrary..
He is insisting on being THE LORD. And he
receives our contrite heart because he created it. We were meant to Know Him and Love Him.
Pardon me, but, THAT TAKES A LIFETIM.
About today's lesson: We all continually learn form and stature from Jesus, our clergy and
"out of the mouth of babes" Next to you,
I am merely 'babes?'

I take the road less travelled? I hope its
the right one on this issue. The issue now is
that I did not defend my Lord and Saviour,k
rebuffing and tweeking the opinion and lesson given. THat is a sin. I will pray about that
until we meet again.

Perhaps the Lord wanted all this this way,
challenging me to speak in the assembly,
which is allowed, but uncommon.

to have spoken and rebuffed you, an erudite
clergymen without a well developed idea, is
incredulous, offensive and inappropriate.
I will be praying that the Lord is not
angry with me, for not standing up, for
being like Peter in the face of the assembly.
I pray that the Lord speaks to you about
my issues raised here, and that it is not
dismissed by the assembly, by you and
that I make amends to the Lord for my
sin of omission...God speed to your presence,
reverend, and THank you! sincerely for listening to my take on the issues.
Ill pray that you understand this elongated
vebose, and "imature-believer's" take on
Matthew !5:10-28.
Perhaps We'll speak again about this sometime.

Praise the Lord in all things: Great and small.

Sincerely yours,
Rosemarie Dundon
