Sharing is Caring

  Conclusion         The church must be rebuilt.   It needs to be rebuilt not only morally and ethically but especially according to biblical principles.   To be rebuilt, the church must weep and repent while looking at the broken church.   The church must turn back to God, the merciful One, with the heart of the Lord who is the head of the church.   The church must return to the Word of God.   The church must experience a revival of the Word and the power of the Word.   The church must return to the gospel of Christ.   And the church must live in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.   The Lord is rebuilding His church.   He is raising up His servants and rebuilding His church.   The Lord is making His servants pray, return to His Word, and be faithful to His Word and prayer to rebuild His church.   The Lord is boldly proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ through them and also showing the ...

Conclusion       The grace that God has given us is that we have been justified by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ by the preaching of the gospel through the servants of Jesus Christ.   In other words, we have been justified only by believing in Jesus.   Now we are those who are in Christ Jesus.   Therefore, we are no longer under God's wrath and God's judgment, but in God's inseparable love.   And that inseparable love of God has been poured into our hearts.   Therefore, we have become those who love God.   Also, we have become lovers of one another.   We have become people who accept each other.   Also, because we share, we have become people who care for each other.   In other words, we have become the Lord's community of love.   If we have received forgiveness of sins through the death of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross, we are credited to God for righteousness through His resurrection.   Therefo...

Conclusion                         We must get to know Jesus more deeply.   We must realize the truth that the knowledge of Jesus Christ is the most valuable (Phil. 3:8). Jesus is the Word made flesh (Jn. 1:14).   Jesus, who became the “Word,” is self-existent (Exod. 3:14) and was with God the Father, and this Word is God (Jn. 1:1).   God the Father, Jesus the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are one (Trinity God).   The Son of God, Jesus Christ, has the attributes that only God has, and also does what only God can do.   The Bible says that God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit are all God and are all equal, and that God is one.   In other words, the Bible says that God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three persons and one God.   Jesus, “the Word” God, the perfect God without beginning, the perfect man, the eternal man, was co...

Conclusion                        What is the Gospel of God?   First Adam sinned in disobedience to God's command of the covenant, and sin entered the world.   Since all people sinned, they came into condemnation and died spiritually.   We died physically and died forever in hell, a lake of unquenchable fire.   And in hell, we couldn't die and we had no choice but to live forever.   In this way, God loved us, who were dead in our trespasses and sins, and chose us before the foundation of the world.   And in order to save us, God the Father made His only Son, Jesus, the only begotten Son, as a sin offering and a propitiation sacrifice, and sent Him into this world in the likeness of sinful flesh, and condemned sin on the sinless Jesus.   So, Jesus paid the price for all our sins on the cross.   The last Adam and the Passover Lamb, the Son Jesus, obeyed...

Conclusion                   We who follow Jesus are poor in spirit, mourners, meek, hunger and thirsty for righteousness, merciful, pure in heart, peacemakers, persecuted for the sake of righteousness.   Also, we who follow Jesus are those who have been called by the Lord.   The Lord has also promised us, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”   We who listen to the voice of the Lord and obey the Lord's call and follow the Lord must not only open our mouths to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, but also live a life worthy of the gospel.   We who follow Jesus are the light and salt of this world.   We must not become disciples of Jesus who have lost their taste.   Rather, we must shine the light of Jesus into this dark world.   We must live our lives reflecting good deeds.   We must give up our hypocrisy and live a life of harmony in words and deeds.   Al...

Conclusion (1 Thessalonians)           The grace of God is with the Lord-centered community church that the Lord is building (1 Thess. 1:1; 5:28). When Apostle Paul started writing the letter to the Thessalonian church saints, he said “Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace and peace to you” (1:1). Also at the end of the letter, he wrote to them “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you” (5:28). Paul, who began the letter with grace and ended the letter with grace, prayed that the God’s grace always be with the Thessalonian church saints because the Thessalonian church was found by the grace of God. Here, the Thessalonian church was found by the grace of God means that the Thessalonians, who were serving idols (1:9) were chosen by God in love (v. 4) and the gospel came to them with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction (v. 5) so that they turned to God from idols to se...

  Conclusion     Our joy is Jesus Christ.  We must rejoice when the gospel of Jesus Christ is preached.  Therefore, all of us should preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.  We must boldly preach the gospel with fear.  Also, we must participate in the gospel ministry.  Specifically, we must help the missionaries with prayers and finance.  At the same time, it is important that we live in the manner worthy of the gospel of Jesus Christ.   We must stand firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the gospel.  We must have the same mind, the same love and the same purpose.  And we must do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit.  We must never put confidence in the flesh.  Rather, we should imitate the humble heart of Jesus, and each of us should consider others better than ourselves, and we should look not only our interests but also to the interests of...

  Conclusion     God, who comes near to those whose hearts are broken and heals their broken hearts, is our true hope.  We live day by day as endure any kinds of hardships and difficulties in tears and we stand up again even after fall because of our true hope the Lord Jesus Christ.  Though we don’t know about tomorrow, we are heading toward the heaven, step by step, with the comfort and power of the Lord who is our true living hope.  Though we live in this wilderness-like world where there are so many things that trouble us, make us worry and be anxious and make us to commit sin against God, we have come to this far because our Lord has given us comfort, strength and help.  It is the Lord who allows us to go through hardships and sufferings so that He may discipline us and train us through those tests of our faith.  And even when we don’t know what to do in times of troubles that give anxiety and distress, God speaks to o...
