Incorporating the New

There's an old saying that says, "When the student is ready the master will appear." The idea is that the student must incorporate everything they've already been taught into their life before the next master will come to teach them the next steps. We see something similar in the Word, where Jesus opens the eyes of Peter, James and John to a new spiritual reality, but now they have a difficult time trying to synthesize what they've just been taught with everything they've always believed. (note - Todd offers his apologies for an error; where he mistakenly says in this audio that the "spiritual serves the natural"... he meant to say, "natural serves the spiritual.")

Simon, son of Jonah

  

'Simon, son of Jonah,' as in John 21:15, signifies faith from charity.

'Simon' signifies worship and obedience, and 'Jonah,' a dove, which also signifies charity.
