Time passing, elapsing interval. Diaginomai. Scripture marks the time that passes between promise and fulfillment. Do not mistake the interval for absence.

Someone, anyone, something. Tis. Scripture often hinges on this small word: if anyone thirsts, let him come. The invitation is unrestricted. No one is excluded from the call.

Arrive at, reach, attain. Katantaō. Paul used this word for reaching the goal of Christlikeness and the resurrection from the dead. Every journey has a destination. Press toward yours.

Caesarea, city in Palestine. Kaisáreia. Philip confessed Christ on the road to Caesarea Philippi, and Cornelius received the Spirit in Caesarea by the sea. God works in specific places, at specific times. Location is never incidental.

Festal, festive one. Phēstos. Festus was the Roman governor before whom Paul boldly proclaimed the resurrection. Even powerful rulers are instruments in the hands of God. Stand unashamed before them.
