바울의 마지막 문안 인사 (22)

                    바울의 마지막 문안 인사 (22)       데마의 이탈과 마가의 이탈은 바울의 선교 사역 중 일어난 대표적인 두 가지 중도 하차 사건입니다 .   그러나 두 사람의 동기 , 성격 , 그리고 최종 결과에는 매우 큰 차이가 있습니 다 :   (1)   이탈의 동기와 성격 : 데마 : 세상에 대한 미련과 유혹 때문에 믿음 자체를 저버린 영적 변절입니다 .   마가 : 전도 여행의 육체적 고충이나 두려움을 이기지 못한 사역적 미숙함 이었습니다 .   신앙을 버린 것이 아니라 감당하기 힘든 현실 앞에 무너진 것입니다 .   (2)   이탈의 타이밍과 상황 : 데마 : 바울이 로마 감옥에 갇혀 순교를 직전에 둔 가장 고독하고 위험한 시기에 바울을 버리고 떠났습니다 . 마가 : 사역 초기 제 1 차 전도 여행 중 떠났습니다 .   (3)   바울 선교팀에 미친 영향 : 데마 : 바울에게 큰 인간적 , 영적 배신감을 안겨주었습니다 . 마가 : 제 2 차 전도 여행을 준비할 때 , 마가를 다시 데려갈 것인가를 두고 바울과 바나바가 심하게 다투어 결국 선교팀이 둘로 갈라지는 계기가 되었습니다 .   (4)   최종 결과와 영적 교훈 : 데마 : 세상으로 돌아간 실패자의 전형으로 남았습니다 . 마가 : 바나바의 양육과 베드로의 지도를 받으며 영적으로 크게 성장했습니다 . 결국 바울은 죽기 직전 " 마가를 데리고 오라 그가 나의 일에 유익하니라 " 며 그를 최고의 동역자로 인정했고 , 마가는 최초의 복음서인 마가복음을 기록하는 영광을 얻었습니다 .   데마는 세상을 사랑...

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (3) (Luke 23:26-32)

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (3)         [Luke 23:26-32]                     The first thing that happened on the way to Golgotha was Simon of Cyrene forcibly carrying the cross for Jesus (Lk. 23:26).  The second thing that happened was that many people followed Jesus (v. 27).  The third thing that happened was that two other criminals were taken along with Jesus.  Look at Luke 23:32 – “Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.”  Here, the word “two other men, both criminals” refers to “two other men” (Jn. 19:18) in the Gospel of John, and “Two robbers” (Mt. 27:38) or “the robbers” (v. 44) in the Gospel of Matthew and in the Gospel of Mark, it says “two robbers” (Mk. 15:27).  At that time, the punishment for robbers was not only crucifixion.  However, when we see that these two robbers went to Golgotha wit...

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (2) (Luke 23:26-32)

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (2)         [Luke 23:26-32]                      During the Wednesday prayer meeting last week, under the heading “Jesus on the road to Golgotha (1),” we meditated on the first thing that happened on the way to Golgotha, Simon of Cyrene, who was forced to carry the cross for Jesus.   Look at Luke 23:26 – “ As they led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.”   When Simon of Cyrene came up to Jerusalem, a Roman soldier was conscripted, captured, and forced to carry the cross.   This cross is a horizontal stick and a vertical stick (wood), and there are two theories.   A vertical cross was erected on the execution ground, and a horizontal stick (cross) was carried, which is said to weigh about 20 kg.   Of course, it...

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (1) (Luke 23:26-32)

Jesus on the road to Golgotha (1)         [Luke 23:26-32]                      Luke 23:26 says, “When they led Him away, they seized a man, Simon of Cyrene, coming in from the country, and placed on him the cross to carry behind Jesus.”   Look at Mark 15:21-22: “They pressed into service a passer-by coming from the country, Simon of Cyrene (the father of Alexander and Rufus), to bear His cross.  Then they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull.”  Here, “Golgotha” (Mt. 27:33; Mk. 15:22; Jn. 19:17) is said to have been about 700 meters from the place where Jesus was judged.  The reason why it is called “Place of a Skull” (Mt. 27:33; Mk. 15:22) or “in Hebrew, Golgotha” (Jn. 19:17) is because the place looked like a skull.   Because Jesus was sentenced to death at trial, He went to Golgotha to be crucified.  ...
