Wherefore Seeing We Also Are Compassed About With So Great A Cloud Of Witnesses, Let Us Lay Aside Every

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;

who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; and make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more: (for they could not endure that which was commanded,

And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart: and so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

but ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying,

Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: for our God is a consuming fire.

In your opinion, what do you think ran through Chase's mind when Omi snuck all the way to his castle alone to break Chase out of the Sphere of Yun?

Oh gosh. This one made me think. 😆

Okie. So, I figure there are 4 main avenues Chase's mind could have gone down.

1. He was actually already expecting Omi. There's a moment where it looks like he looks at Omi right after he's been captured. That could have been him trying to cue Omi that this would be a good time to repay the favor. It would also be an easy explanation for why he wasn't surprised by Omi coming.

2. He wasn't surprised by Omi coming, but he was gratified by it. It would indicate a preference for Chase over Jack. The fact that Omi clearly snuck away to rescue Chase would also indicate that Omi is loosening his morals a little bit. Not enough to even remotely think he's coming to Chase's side, but I think Chase would definitely see it as a good first step to making his protégé heylin.

3. Chase actually was surprised, but he's been around for 1500 years; no way he doesn't know how to hide that. I don't think he cares to, because why bother hiding from insignificant insects, but I do think he wants to be put together in front of Omi. (Probably look cool too.)

However this would be a good surprise, and Chase is perfectly capable of rolling with the various turns life likes to dish out.

4. He wasn't surprised, and he was glad about it. Because Omi coming to rescue Chase shows a significant portion of his character, regardless of if it's because he was simply returning the favor, or because of how Jack was pummeling them. And the more knowledge Chase has of Omi, the easier it (theoretically) would be to turn him.

In all of these scenarios, while I think that Chase had already determined that he wanted Omi by his side, this episode twigs me as the moment that Chase decides that he won't stop until Omi takes his rightful place by Chase's side.

That he views Omi as his: his protégé, his to-be co-ruler.

I honestly think that Chase initially makes Omi his second in command because Omi is a kid (not to mention good), and not actually ready to be a ruler. And that the reason he made Omi into a cat was so that he could ensure Omi stayed by his side.

Once Omi is fully heylin, of his own choices rather than the ying yo yo, and he had actual life experience, I do think Chase would have changed him back into a human and that he would have had Omi take his place by Chase's side rather than as his second.

So yeah, while other episodes established that Chase wanted Omi to rule the world by his side, I think this is the episode that establishes why Chase never tries to kill Omi. Even when it becomes apparent that Omi isn't gonna join him. (At this time at least. )

I liked the contrast of Chase knocking Omi out but making sure to catch and hold him gently in your fic! Reminds me of how Chase reached out to take Omi's hand and pull him back to his feet after their spar in The Evil Within.

Thank you! 😊 I'm glad you liked it!

Oh, that was a good scene in XS. 😆

Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear What man shall do unto me. Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly. But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever.

Amen. And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words. Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you. Grace be with you all. Amen. Written to the Hebrews from Italy by Timothy.
