For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
12 instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age,
13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
14 who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.
Titus 2:11-14

Greetings in Y'shua!
I feel many of us are in a season that is as between the last supper and Gethsemane. In particular, the words of the Lord as He ministered to his disciples in John chapters 14 to 17 are intended to minister to us now. He will find a people so prepared, in Him.
Most of us have been by a shop that has a sign out front declaring "Under New Management." That means you can expect the new manager has identified some deficiencies with the previous management and has attempted to address those issues, hoping patrons would be encouraged to return and give the establishment another opportunity to provide its service. In a sense, this is where I'm at with The Open Scroll. It's still me, Bob, managing the site, but not the same old Bob. The old manager died, in a figure, or, is dying to self on the way to the cross. While this personal work is in progress, indeed, the content of this site is "coming under new management." Pray for the Lord to make a short and complete work, if you would. In the mean time, please excuse the clutter and don't bump your head on the scaffolding. :)
Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
36) For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.
37) FOR YET IN A VERY LITTLE WHILE,
HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY.
38) BUT MY RIGHTEOUS ONE SHALL LIVE BY FAITH;
AND IF HE SHRINKS BACK, MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM.
39) But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul.
Hebrews 10:35-39
Seek Yahweh, all you humble of the earth who have carried out His ordinances; Seek righteousness, seek humility. Perhaps you will be hidden in the day of Yahweh’s anger.
Zephaniah 2:3
