Heaven in not simply a destination - for the Christian it's a motivation. That's what the apostle Paul wanted the Corinthian Church to know and believe. In Second Corinthians chapter five, we are reminded that we all will give an account to the Lord for the things that we've done on earth even believers. That ought to inspire us to make it our goal to please the Lord. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

In this weeks episode of inverted Orthodoxy, Pastors Blake and Kyle discuss the following questions: (2:25 into episode) AER  On episode 383 you discuss the omniscience of God and use the idea that Jesus said even he did not know the day or hour that the son of man would return. Do you think there is actually a day that god has picked out or did Jesus not know because it was undecided? I have heard, and maybe it's somewhere in Paul's letters, the idea that what we do can speed up the day of Jesus' return. If what we do can change the day that Jesus returns, is god waiting for a set date or some criteria to be fulfilled?(18:47 into episode)Following last week's podcast - sometimes when I listen to the podcast I wonder about the North American church. I have never heard anything negative about Pokémon… I only moved to Canada nearly 8 years ago, probably after Pokémon conversations. it makes me wonder about the cultural differences and why in North America so many more things like Pokémon are questioned.(34:07 into episode)  I listened to a BEMA podcast about a book called "Fail: Finding Hope and Grace in the Midst of Ministry Failure" by J.R.

This week we are discussing ‘How Long, Oh  Lord?' with Marty Solomon.   The pain, chaos, and instability that leads to single parenting is so intense we want it to end as soon as possible—but it doesn't, and we don't know when it will. We feel like we're wandering in the desert with no relief in sight. Is it possible to find hope and not live in fear of the rug being pulled out when things are stable?    Marty Solomon grew up in the Reformed tradition before attending Boise Bible College and getting his B.A. in Christian Ministries. In 2008 he studied in Israel with Ray Vander Laan and was challenged to grapple with his own Jewish heritage. As he learned more about the wider conversation surrounding the Bible, especially through a Jewish context, he began to develop BEMA Discipleship as a way to share his experience with others. He found his way into Impact Campus Ministries, seeing college students as in the perfect stage of life to experiment with the methods he saw in Jesus. Marty began leading trips of his own to Israel and Turkey in 2014. After a few iterations of his BEMA material, The BEMA Podcast was launched in 2016, making it accessible to a global audience. He and his wife, Becky, currently live in Cincinnati; they are committed to the work of ministry together and of raising their two kids, Abigail and Ezekiel.   You can find these things and more from Marty at martysolomon.com.   Find Marty's book martysolomon.com/books.   LINK TO SHOW NOTES For all the detailed show notes, tips and links click - https://soloparent.org/show-notes-blog   ASK US ANYTHING!

Sunday, 12 January 2025   but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. Matthew 6:20   “And you, amass – yourselves – treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor an eating – it evaporates, and where stealers – they tunnel not, nor they steal” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus noted that His disciples shouldn't amass for themselves treasures upon the earth. Now, He explains where amassing treasures is appropriate, beginning with, “And you, amass – yourselves – treasures in heaven.”   In the previous verse, Jesus said to not amass treasures “upon the earth.” Now He says to amass them “in heaven.” The realms are different, and the way to amass them in each of those places also differs.   Regardless of what dispensation a person lives, the only way to accomplish what Jesus says is through faith. Nothing earthly can be taken to heaven. Nothing done on earth meets the bar of heavenly rewards unless it is done in faith.   This is the primary lesson of Hebrews 11 where people from various dispensations are all rewarded for their faith. The actions were merely an outcropping of faith. It is faith, and faith alone, that bridges the span between the earthly and the heavenly realms in this regard.   To understand this, think of some prominent person who gives away a great deal for various charities, maybe Bill Gates. He has donated an extraordinary amount to AIDs research, for example.   His charitable foundation has totaled grant payments of $77.6 billion dollars. And yet, he is not a man of faith. As such, he has not amassed a single treasure in heaven. And more, if he doesn't come to Jesus before he dies, he will be chucked into the same Lake of Fire where Adolph Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, and all of the other “bad” people of the earth will go. There is no buying one's way into God's favor.  However, when deeds are done in faith, rewards are stored up for that person in heaven “where neither moth nor an eating – it evaporates, and where thieves – they tunnel not, nor they steal.”   In these words, Jesus has restated the same words as the previous verse but changed them according to the situation. The two verses, side by side, show the contrast –   You amass, not – yourselves – treasures upon the earth, where moth and an eating – it evaporates, and where stealers – they tunnel, and they steal.   And you, amass – yourselves – treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor an eating – it evaporates, and where stealers – they tunnel not, nor they steal.   These words of Jesus, though spoken under the law to His disciples, carry the same truth as those in the church today. Paul explains when and how these “treasures” will be received as rewards by those in the church in 1 Corinthians 3 and 2 Corinthians 5.   Those who live by faith and act in faith are saving up rewards that will be handed out at the Bema seat of Christ. Nothing done in faith will lose its reward.   Life application: As noted above, Hebrews 11 explains how something earthly becomes a source of reward in heaven. The precept is explained and then repeated time and again –   Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. Hebrews 11:1-3   This is then followed by line after line of examples of faith: By faith Abel / By faith Enoch / By faith Noah / By faith Abraham / By faith Sarah / By faith Abraham (again) / By faith Isaac / By faith Jacob / By faith Joseph / etc.   But what does Paul say in Romans and Galatians? He demonstrates that law and faith are mutually exclusive –   “For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 14 For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect, 15 because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression.” Romans 4:13-15   “What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith; 31 but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness. 32 Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.” Romans 9:30-32   “...knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.” Galatians 2:16   “But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for ‘the just shall live by faith.' 12 Yet the law is not of faith, but ‘the man who does them shall live by them.'” Galatians 3:11, 12   If you are attempting to merit God's favor through law observance, you have set aside grace. You will receive no rewards, no treasures in heaven, for your conduct. Because you are not living by faith, even if you were once saved by faith, you should expect no rewards at all for your faithless life as you arrogantly set aside the grace of God found in Jesus Christ. Live by faith, put away your deeds of the law, and start amassing treasures that are truly heavenly.   Heavenly Father, how dull we are to assume that we can outdo Jesus through law observance. He has done it all! He has fulfilled the law! In Him, we are imputed His righteousness. Why would we look for another righteousness that is not of faith? How dull we are. Help us to not be so dull. Amen.

Tuesday, 12 November 2024   Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy. Matthew 5:7   “Blessed – the compassionate, For they – they will be compassionated” (CG).   Jesus continues the Beatitudes in this verse, beginning with, “Blessed – the compassionate.”   The word is eleémón, merciful or compassionate. It can even be translated as being full of pity. It is found only here and in Hebrews 2:17. It is derived from the verb eleeó, to actively have pity on or be merciful to. That will be seen in the next clause.   Both words are most commonly rendered as merciful. However, the words are so similar that to keep from adding a lot of extra words to define mercy, which is necessary in the verb form, the word compassionate makes for a simpler translation. This is seen in the words, “For they – they will be compassionated.”   A single word describes the act. But what does it mean to receive mercy or be compassionated based on one's own conduct? A good example of this being worked out in a parable is that of the unforgiving servant of Matthew 18 –   “Jesus said to him, ‘I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. 23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. 26 The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, “Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” 27 Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. 28 But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, “Pay me what you owe!” 29 So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” 30 And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. 31 So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. 32 Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, “You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. 33 Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?” 34 And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. 35 So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.'” Matthew 18:22-35   Life application: As believing Christians, we should be more aware of this than any others. We, like all humans, stood at enmity with God. We stood in a state of eternal condemnation, forever to be separated from God. But God took the first step, a step that did not need to be taken, and sent Jesus to bring us out of that state –   “And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:1-10   As this is so, and because we were completely undeserving of the salvation we have been granted, shouldn't we do our best to be merciful and compassionate to others as well? The greatest sinner is no different than you were. To withhold at least a simple explanation of Jesus to them is the exact opposite of what God in Christ had done for you.   It doesn't matter what color their skin is, what political party they hold to, or what type of perversion they are engaged in, you were just as lost and separated from God as they are. The only difference is that someone took the time to share the gospel with you. Are you going to be like the unmerciful servant? When you stand before the Lord at the Bema seat of Christ, there will be a price to pay for your uncaring, uncompassionate heart.   Be sure not to have such a meeting. Instead, change your mind and be willing to share the good news of Jesus!   Lord God, give us wisdom on how to conduct our lives before You. We have all kinds of biases, and a cold streak can easily come up in us and get us to stop doing what we should be doing. Regardless of how we look at others, give us the eyes to look at them as You do. They are people deserving of hearing the gospel. What they do with that is up to them. Help us in this, O God. Amen.
