Mark 16:9-14 NIV - When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it. Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country. These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either. Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

Initially he was silent, but when pastors were required to agree to Nazi propaganda in the pulpits, he left Germany to be safe and to attend the Union Theological Seminary in New York.“I have come to the conclusion that I made a mistake in coming to America this time. I must live through this difficult period in our national history along with the people of Germany. I will have no right to participate in the reconstruction of Christian life in Germany after the war if I do not share the trials of this time with my people ... Christians in Germany will have to face the terrible alternative of either willing the defeat of their nation in order that a future Christian civilization may survive, or else willing the victory of their nation and thereby destroying our civilization and any true Christianity. I know which of these alternatives I must choose but I cannot make that choice from a place of security.Aa man who saw the execution: I saw Pastor Bonhoeffer... kneeling on the floor praying fervently to God. I was most deeply moved by the way this lovable man prayed, so devout and so certain that God heard his prayer. At the place of execution, he again said a short prayer and then climbed the few steps to the gallows, brave and composed. His death ensued after a few seconds. In the almost fifty years that I worked as a doctor, I have hardly ever seen a man die so entirely submissive to the will of God.Later he was convicted for his ties to the July 20, 1944, conspiracy to overthrow the Nazi regime led to his execution in 1945. His theological writings are regarded as classics throughout the Christian world.We will openly confront social and political propaganda from the pulpit.We refuse to repeat lies, even if our safety comes into play.We will refuse to participate in social activities that are wrong:No forced Vaccine or Vaccine ChecksNuremberg medical trials 1946: never again use humans as medical lab-ratsHelmuth Vetter, an Auschwitz camp physician, SS captain and employee of the Bayer group within IG Farben conducted medical experiments on inmates at Auschwitz and at the Mauthausen concentration camp. In one study of an anaesthetic, the company paid for the use of 150 female inmates of Auschwitz. A Bayer employee wrote to Rudolf Höss, the Auschwitz commandant: "The transport of 150 women arrived in good condition. However, we were unable to obtain conclusive results because they died during the experiments. We would kindly request that you send us another group of women to the same number and at the same price.As God's Apostles, representatives of His Kingdom, we need to continue to take ground from the other Kingdom.“Did God actually say” the violent attack focused on reading, possessing, and declaring God/King's WordWhy is the Bible so heavily mocked and every other publication promotedWhy do our schools carry sexually charged materials for 5th graders and if we demand their removal, we are book banners, but many schools have removed only bibles, and students with bibles must have them covered.

For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.” But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,One of the greatest areas of onboarding demonic activity is sexuality, especially traumatic (forced) sexualityGuard your sexuality - you have only one gift of virginity to give to anotherFailure To Marry This was a route I had full intentions to pursue. Proverbs 18:22 (ESV) He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD.Not every marriage is covenantal marriageCivil unions are not Biblical MarriagesBiblical-Covenantal Marriage is an agreement between three entitiesMark‬ 10‬:‭7‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ”‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”“Ecclesiastes 4:9–12 (NIV) Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.Malachi 2:13–16 (MSG) And here's a second offense: You fill the place of worship with your whining and sniveling because you don't get what you want from GOD. Do you know why? Simple. Because GOD was there as a witness when you spoke your marriage vows to your young bride, and now you've broken those vows, broken the faith-bond with your vowed companion, your covenant wife. GOD, not you, made marriage. His Spirit inhabits even the smallest details of marriage. And what does he want from marriage? Children of God, that's what. So guard the spirit of marriage within you. Don't cheat on your spouse. “I hate divorce,” says the GOD of Israel. GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies says, “I hate the violent dismembering of the ‘one flesh' of marriage.” So watch yourselves. Don't let your guard down. Don't cheat.Divorce -‭‭ Mark‬ ‭10‬:‭10‬-‭12‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ”When they were in the house again, the disciples asked Jesus about this. He answered, “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”““Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth the violent attack against procreation that has defined Kingdom purposesThe attack comes in all sorts of disguises but ultimately this is the most violent attack of all attacks.Violence focused on God's Apostles before they have their intended impact.Violence via: abortion or miscarriageAbortion is modern day Molech worship: the promise of a better life if we kill the child.Having kids is viewed as as negative, large families are mocked, traditionally celebratedLIES: the earth can't support itLIES: what kind of evil brings a child into this sufferingLIES: we can't afford thatPloy to keep kingdom expansion limited‭‭Mark‬ ‭10‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬”When Jesus saw this, he was indignant.

Mark 5:21-34 NIV - When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” So Jesus went with him.A large crowd followed and pressed around him. And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”“You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?' ”But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it.

YOU ARE ADAM.7 Then & Now Violent Attacks“In the beginning, God” the violent attack against the reality of God/His KingdomNotice it's an attack on The God, not on all gods.Culture shows respect all religions except ChristianityIn HR Hirings, there tends to be a welcoming of anything outside of Christianity Fashionable to attack Judaism/Christianity - protestsIf Christians protest anything - white extremistsMock Jesus, but not Allah or Muhammad his prophetNo limit to using Jesus as a curse wordMental Health Facilities - people cursing JesusWe are to establish the reality of God/His Kingdom in our world.“And God said, “Let there be…” the violent attack on the creative work of God to establish Heaven/EarthThis attack started with the introduction of Darwinism into the school system in the late 1800's. Traditionally, science was taught from a Biblical creation perspective. During WW1 there was another push, and many states made it illegal to teach evolution. In 1968 the U.S. The Supreme Court overturned the laws that had banned the teaching of evolution and most schools leaned into the “Equal Time” approach. The issue was again examined by the U. S. Supreme Court in the 1980's where the courts determined 1) Creation Science is religion; 2) to teach religion in the public schools is illegal; and 3) Creation Science is not science... They ignore the scientific reality of Mathematical Impossibility: right time, place, chemicals, for us to have the exact gravity to stick to earth, but not so much that our blood isn't trapped in our ankles.Science ignored - Laws of Entropy - most evolution tends to deformity not improvementIntelligent Design is completely ignoredFossils are covered in the Gap TheoryWe are to continue to establish the creative work of God here on earth as we take dominion.“He said to the woman…”The violent attack on God's Apostles, representatives of His Kingdom created to take ground from the other Kingdom.While all people are under siege, God's Apostolic people are alway under attackAdam, The Lineage Of Abraham, The Jewish Nation, Christianity.It's subtle but it's tangible.Pandemic:Bars/strip clubs were open, church gatherings closed.Casinos were open, prayer meetings were not allowed.Football players on the field, churches finedHistorical Attacks: Foxe's Book of MartyrsToday Attacks: The Voice of the Martyrshttps://www.iamnevent.com/?_source_code=GSA24B1&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA2pyuBhBKEiwApLaIO0HIap-oCBLzgKQ1d4jyh99O_fJYa5JqjNoFFLrGyA25YlBTJBqwpRoCjfgQAvD_BwEFree online event March 8, 8PMDietrich Bonhoeffer was a German protestant pastor and theologian known for his opposition to National Socialism and treatment of Jews. Initially he was silent, but when pastors were required to agree to Nazi propaganda in the pulpits, he left Germany to be safe and to attend the Union Theological Seminary in New York.“I have come to the conclusion that I made a mistake in coming to America this time. I must live through this difficult period in our national history along with the people of Germany. I will have no right to participate in the reconstruction of Christian life in Germany after the war if I do not share the trials of this time with my people ... Christians in Germany will have to face the terrible alternative of either willing the defeat of their nation in order that a future Christian civilization may survive, or else willing the victory of their nation and thereby destroying our civilization and any true Christianity. I know which of these alternatives I must choose but I cannot make that choice from a place of security.Aa man who saw the execution: I saw Pastor Bonhoeffer... kneeling on the floor praying fervently to God. I was most deeply moved by the way this lovable man prayed, so devout and so certain that God heard his prayer. At the place of execution, he again said a short prayer and then climbed the few steps to the gallows, brave and composed. His death ensued after a few seconds. In the almost fifty years that I worked as a doctor, I have hardly ever seen a man die so entirely submissive to the will of God.Later he was convicted for his ties to the July 20, 1944, conspiracy to overthrow the Nazi regime led to his execution in 1945. His theological writings are regarded as classics throughout the Christian world.We will openly confront social and political propaganda from the pulpit.We refuse to repeat lies, even if our safety comes into play.We will refuse to participate in social activities that are wrong:No forced Vaccine or Vaccine ChecksNuremberg medical trials 1946: never again use humans as medical lab-ratsHelmuth Vetter, an Auschwitz camp physician, SS captain and employee of the Bayer group within IG Farben conducted medical experiments on inmates at Auschwitz and at the Mauthausen concentration camp. In one study of an anaesthetic, the company paid for the use of 150 female inmates of Auschwitz. A Bayer employee wrote to Rudolf Höss, the Auschwitz commandant: "The transport of 150 women arrived in good condition. However, we were unable to obtain conclusive results because they died during the experiments. We would kindly request that you send us another group of women to the same number and at the same price.As God's Apostles, representatives of His Kingdom, we need to continue to take ground from the other Kingdom.“Did God actually say” the violent attack focused on reading, possessing, and declaring God/King's WordWhy is the Bible so heavily mocked and every other publication promotedWhy do our schools carry sexually charged materials for 5th graders and if we demand their removal, we are book banners, but many schools have removed only bibles, and students with bibles must have them covered. Religious apparel is not allowed but Pride Day has turned into Pride Year. Students are required to participate and pledge to the pride flagWe need to continue reading, possessing, and declaring God/King's Word in the world,“God created man in his image… male and female The violent attack on God implanted identity attack on God's role in conceptionThe premise that it is just a biologyThe attack on identityGod's image bearerApostolic purposeThe reality of male/femaleGender confusion shows up through many different vehicles but those are disguises.

He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.“Malachi 2:13–16 (MSG) And here's a second offense: You fill the place of worship with your whining and sniveling because you don't get what you want from GOD.

What amazes God? Luke 7:1-10 (NIV) // When Jesus had finished saying all this to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion's servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” 6 So Jesus went with them. He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don't trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7 That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word, and my servant will be healed. 8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,' and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,' and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,' and he does it.” 9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.” 10 Then the men who had been sent returned to the house and found the servant well. The Amazing Faith! We can possess faith that amazes God. Asks for God's help without a guarantee of success Luke 7:3-6a // The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.

Sermon Notes Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ "Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown." When he said this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear." Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ "Therefore consider carefully how you listen. Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what they think they have will be taken from them." Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown." When he said this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear." Jesus believes my transformed life will produce more life. Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭26‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is across the lake from Galilee. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭27‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ When Jesus stepped ashore, he was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothes or lived in a house, but had lived in the tombs. Demonic possession is where an evil spirit takes over the thoughts, actions, and decision-making of a human. It happens but is rare. Demonic oppression is where a person, even a Christian, is tormented or tempted by an evil spirit. ‭‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you? You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. ‭James 4‬:‭7‬-‭8‬a ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. "There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them." – C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭28‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don't torture me!" Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭29‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ For Jesus had commanded the impure spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was chained hand and foot and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and had been driven by the demon into solitary places. Jesus relentlessly pursues those who need him most. Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭34‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, Be bold while sharing your story. Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭35‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ And the people went out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus' feet, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid. Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭36‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Those who had seen it told the people how the demon-possessed man had been cured. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭37‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, because they were overcome with fear. So he got into the boat and left. Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭38‬-‭39‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, "Return home and tell how much God has done for you." So the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him. Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭14‬-‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

"Surrender," in Hebrew, means "to align or arrange oneself under the command of a divine viewpoint." You literally turn away from the offerings of the world, the opinions of others, and your own strategies for achieving life and instead choose to stand under God's divine viewpoint. When we cling to other things, believing they will satisfy our souls, we put something between us and God—actually, we put something in front of Him. They may be good things, but when they become highest in our hearts, we get into trouble; we've stepped away from our first love, maybe without even noticing. In today's podcast, Stasi shares that the surrendered life is a doorway into a deeper life with God, then closes with a beautiful and powerful encounter with Jesus through which we experience the fruit of surrender: resting in our God's unconditional love.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Psalm 100:3 (NIV) — Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.Isaiah 40:11 (NIV) — He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.Mark 6:34 (NIV) — When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things.Ezekiel 34:31 (NIV) — You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.'”Revelation 7:17 (NIV) — For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water.' ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.'”Hebrews 13:5 (NIV) — Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”Psalm 23:1-3 (NIV) — The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.Matthew 11:28 (NIV) — Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.Hebrews 13:20-21 (NIV) — Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever.

Sermon Notes Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick. "For God is triune, and it is as triune that he is so good and desirable…" — Michael Reeves, Delighting in the Trinity: An Introduction to the Christian Faith Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus. Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus. Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ When Jesus saw their faith, he said, "Friend, your sins are forgiven." "For a moment, imagine yourself as the paralyzed man. You would have felt (and if you had a bold personality you might have said), 'Uh, thanks—but isn't it obvious I have a more urgent need here?' And if you had said that, Jesus would have answered, 'No, you don't.'" — Timothy Keller, Forgive: Why Should I and How Can I? Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, "Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?" Jesus is not just another prophet or a good man. He is claiming to be God. Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭22‬-‭23‬ ‭NIV Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, "Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? Which is easier: to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?"‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭24‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ "But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins." So he said to the paralyzed man, "I tell you, get up, take your mat, and go home." Daniel‬ ‭7‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed." The title, Son of Man, shows Jesus' humanity, humility, and holiness. Matthew‬ ‭26‬:‭64‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ "You have said so," Jesus replied. "But I say to all of you: From now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven." Matthew‬ ‭26‬:‭65‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy." Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭25‬-‭26‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, "We have seen remarkable things today." "It's likely that the man had been feeling, "If I could just walk again—then I'd be happy. I'd never complain. I'd be content." But Jesus, as it were, is saying: "Look around you at all these people—they can all walk. Are their hearts all filled with contentment? Are they all happy? If I only heal you, you will be overjoyed for a while, but then you will become like everyone else." No. What the man needed was forgiveness. Forgiveness gets down to the bottom of things—to the alienation we feel from God and from ourselves because of our wrongdoing. Jesus was saying: "I want to show you that the deepest need of your nature is for me. Only I can bestow perfect love, new identity, endless comfort, hope, and glory. And the doorway into all of that is to know forgiveness." It's time to open that door and walk through it."— Timothy Keller,Forgive: Why Should I and How Can I? In Christ, your worst day can be completely forgiven.

Preacher: Andy Bauer Date: 1/22/23 Series: Experiencing God's Presence Daily Key Scriptures: Luke 3:9-14 NIV "For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 9 The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.” 10 “What should we do then?” the crowd asked. 11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” 12 Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?” 13 “Don't collect any more than you are required to,” he told them. 14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don't extort money, and don't accuse people falsely—be content with your pay.” John 6:5-14 NIV "When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do. 7 Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year's wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!” 8 Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up, 9 “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?” 10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). 11 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish. 12 When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.” 13 So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten. 14 After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.” https://www.firesidechurch.org/ Follow Jesus Together.

The Believers Authority

Bikers Church Cape Town

The Believer's Authority – by Ian September “Authority exercised with humility and obedience accepted with delight, are the very lines along which our spirits live.” – C.S. Lewis Good evening church in the North. I have it on high authority that what you will hear and apply will change your life forever, guaranteed! Because it is (Not only information or revelation but in the application). How do I apply this knowledge in my life? I would like to make a statement by saying that our only hope to reach the lost and change this world one heart at a time, is when we as Christians understand, claim and exercise our authority in Christ. Please note church, that one of the many reasons why people do not grow and mature; overcome and conquer and live victorious lives, can be found in our ignorance to this topic! Did you know that exercising your authority in Christ is faith in action? God's word is clear that, faith without action is dead and without faith it's impossible to please God. (Do you see this chain-reaction?) Heb. 11:6 Listen to: Colossians 1:13 (NIV) – For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves. The Word of God says that we have been delivered from the power (authority, control and dominion) of darkness and are placed into God's kingdom. So please realize today that Satan has no power over you as a child of God; the only power that the enemy has over you, is what you allow him to have. Take note church that the day that you gave your life to Christ, the day you accepted Him, you were given a new life but also authority and faith, to believe that you're a child of the Most High! John 1:12 (NIV) – Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God (Believe this Church!) Aan almal ….. Luke 10:19 (NIV) – I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. The Word of God says that you're not only called to be a child of God, but also to reign and rule in this life; for you are more than an overcomer, because you have the power, might and ability to do so. Amen! You are armed and dangerous! You see, when we fully understand this principle we will be able to proclaim boldly: Philippians 4:13 (NIV) – I can do everything through him who gives me strength. I have His ability, strength and authority to do all things! King David understood this so well, when he said: “For by my God, I can run through a troop and by my God I can jump over a wall.” Psalms 18:29 (NIV) – With your help I can advance against a troop with my God I can scale a wall. Matthew 28:18-19 (NIV) – 18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. (Therefore because of verse 18 that all power and authority belongs to Jesus). Understand that a transferal of authority took place. The authority that was given to Christ was transferred to us as believers! Amen?! Mark 16:17 (NIV) – And these signs will accompany those who believe in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues. Also re-emphasizes the fact that His authority was given to all believers. (Power & authority) Because of His authority in us we can command (just as He did) for authority doesn't beg or ask, it commands (Imagine a cop begging you to pull over!) We can therefore safely say that authority is exercised through the spoken Word! Proverbs 18:21a (Well known) “Life and death is in the power of the tongue.” We will find many examples where Jesus cast out demons using His authority and speaking life over people, healing the sick and even raising the dead! Luke 7:14b – “I say to you, arise!” - Command John 5:8 – “Pick up your mat and walk!” – Command Mark 1:25 – Jesus commanded the evil spirit to leave; this same authoritative power (authority) was given to us as well. Luke 9:1 (NIV) – When Jesus had called the twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases. It is also important to know church that we can only act under His authority before we can utilize (exercise) our authority. The Roman centurion in Luke 7:2-9 (NIV) – 2There a centurion's servant whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” 6So Jesus went with them. He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don't trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word and my servant will be healed. 8For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me, I tell this one, ‘Go' and he goes; and that one, ‘Come' and he comes, I say to my servant, ‘Do this,' and he does it.” 9When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.” Verse 8 he said: I recognize and understand authority, I submit to it and I exercise it... you don't have to come to my house, Lord, but just say the Word! He understood authority and so should we! This evening I would like to share with you just 5 pointers or reasons why we as believers do not walk in our God-given authority. Sin: The primary reason for many not to reign and rule in this life! When we habitually sin, we give Satan legal right over us until we confess our sins to God and repent! Take note church that wilful, habitual sin will prevent you from claiming and exercising your authority in Christ! Jy moet dit glo … Ignorance: Hosea 4:6 – “My people are destroyed by a lack of knowledge.” Many of us are ignorant to our authority (Ek het nie geweet nie!) Unbelief: Hebrews 3:12 says that to have unbelief is to sin! (We do not really believe that we have the power!) Fear: Luke 12:48 (well known) with authority comes responsibility! Many people do not want to embrace authority because of the responsibility attached to it. Prayerlessness: Ephesians 6:18 encourages us to pray at all times on every occasion, for when I'm prayerful I am sinless! But when I'm prayerless, I'm sinful! When we spend time before God in prayer you will come to the clear understanding of who you are in Christ, and the authoritive power you have in Him. Amen? I would like to conclude this evening by saying: “It is not what you say you believe, but what you do with what you say, you believe!” May God through His Holy Spirit challenge our hearts and make us realize who exactly we are in Christ and the authority vested in us by Christ Himself, so that we can rule and reign in this life. 1 Peter 2:9 (NIV) – But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.

On Sunday, February 6, 2022, Pastor Stuart Nice shared a message in person and online via YouTube Live. Pastor Stuart continued the story of Jesus' healing of the paralytic man, focusing on forgiveness. Jesus finds himself in a conflict over his statement about forgiveness and takes the opportunity to declare his authority as the Son of Man with the proof of healing along with forgiving the paralyzed man. Jesus offers himself to us as the one who forgives, heals, and is our example to do the same in our world today.Luke 5:20-26 (NIV) When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, ‘Get up and walk'? But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”http://bit.ly/Luke5_20-26NIV

I read just one verse in today's episode, but what a powerful promise is found in that verse! It's Ephesians 3:12 (NLT). Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God's presence. The New International Version says that “we may approach God with freedom and confidence.” What a beautiful word picture of the posture and the attitude you and I can have when we enter the throne room and come near to God. Do you have any idea what a privilege we've been given? Those of us who have put our faith in Jesus Christ have the freedom to boldly and confidently approach the King of kings. We don't have to make an appointment. We don't have to wait until we have a crisis. No concern is too big or too small to carry into God's presence. We can approach God anytime for any reason because of Jesus and our faith in him. We would not be wise to approach God with arrogance, but neither should we cower in his presence. Never allow guilt, shame or regret stop you from boldly and confidently approaching God. You have been given the freedom to come as you are. In Hebrews Chapter 10, we learn that “since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body” we are welcome to “draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings.” (NIV) When Jesus died on the cross, the curtain that separated the Holy Place in the Temple from the Most Holy Place, was torn in two, opening the way to approach the throne of God. The Ark of the Covenant, which was kept behind the curtain was considered the mercy seat of God—his earthly throne, so to speak. The Bible tells us that the curtain concealing God's presence was torn in two from top to bottom. Not only that, the curtain was way too thick for human hands to tear. God himself reached down and tore the curtain that separated us from him. Christ's broken body is like that torn curtain. Jesus is the doorway not only to eternal life, but also to intimate communion with God right here, right now. Because of Christ and our faith in him, we may approach God with freedom and confidence. Hebrews 10:22-23 says, “Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.” (NIV) If you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you are welcome to freely approach God, and when you are in the presence of the King of kings, everything is possible!

The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.Colossians 4:2 NIV2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. James 5:13-16 NIV 13 Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

Praying God's Word.

Have you noticed there always seems to be something to get angry about! The news cycle reports one outrageous thing after another. It may be inflation, unemployment numbers, the way people react to Covid, acts of racism or the latest political flap. We should stop calling it the "news cycle" and just call it the "outrage cycle." What we really need, are the words of Jesus. He told us how to have a blessed life. His Sermon on the Mount begins with sayings called the Beatitudes. This week, our focus will be on the Beatitude recorded in Matthew 5:5, which reads, "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth." (NIV) When Jesus spoke this Beatitude, he may have based it on Psalm 37. That Psalm is a contrast between the righteous and evil doers. More specifically, it urges us not to get bent out of shape at those who do wrong. Our focus should be on trusting God and doing what is right, rather than on being anger or envious at those doing evil. Verses 10 and 11 echo the Beatitude. They read, "In just a little while, the wicked will be no more; though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there. But the meek shall inherit the land and delight themselves in abundant peace."(NIV) So join me this week as we reduce focus on the negative news. Let's focus instead on meekness!

Break it down, and present it in bite-size pieces until they get it for themselves 2 Timothy 3:16 NIV All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness Rom 12:3-8 NIV For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. (4) For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, (5) so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. (6) We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; (7) if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; (8) if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully. Positives: -Make it simple, Keep it simple -Make it accessible and achievable to all. (anyone can have this. Anyone can do this). -Not religious, or trying to build the ‘wow' factor of the teacher. -Reproduce it. “The proof is in the pudding”. -Loves to find a way of taking complex truths and making them simple. Take complex truth, work it, see it, dream it, squeeze it, and let one simple drop of easily receivable truth drop out the bottom. Take it and then serve it hot with an illustration! eg. Jesus with parables. Trinity: St Patrick of Ireland and the 3 leaf clover, Today : H2O (water) in 3 forms etc. -sees in stories, analogies, rhythms and seasons of learning. -No 'secret teaching'. Give it all. Lay it all out for anyone. Needs attention: -Don't blame the people when they don't ‘get it'. Own this problem myself, and help solve it. ( -patience - see where people are getting stuck and don't get annoyed. Instead, find the ‘knowledge gap' and fill it. OT example: Moses - 10 commandments- Proverbs 1:1 TPT Here are kingdom revelations, words to live by, and words of wisdom given to empower you to reign in life, written as proverbs by Israel's King Solomon, David's son. -Proverbs contains thirty-one chapters, each comprised of twenty to thirty-five wise sayings that are each two poetic lines long = > at least 600 teachings in one small book Proverbs 9:9 TPT Teach a wise man what is right and he'll grow even wiser. Instruct the lovers of God and they'll learn even more. NT example: -Jesus- Matthew 7:28-29 NIV When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, (29) because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law. Matthew 18:1-5 NIV At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” (2) He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. (3) And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (4) Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. (5) And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. Matthew 22:35-40 NIV One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: (36) “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” (37) Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' (38) This is the first and greatest commandment. (39) And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'

Reaching Those Who Are Lost In an Ungodly Culture Luke 19:1-4 (NIV)“Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see Him, since Jesus was coming that way.” 1. Don't assume someone doesn't want to know who Jesus really is. “He wanted to see who Jesus was.” 2. You cannot assess if someone is worthy of meeting Jesus. Luke 19:5-6 (NIV)“When Jesus reached the spot, He looked up and said to him, ‘Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.' So he came down at once and welcomed Him gladly.” Verse 7“All the people saw this and began to mutter, ‘He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.'” 3. Seek out those lost in your life so that they may be found. Luke 19:8-10 (NIV)“Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, ‘Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.' Jesus said to him, ‘Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.'” Romans 6:1-14 (NIV)“What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. For if we have been united with Him in a death like His, we will certainly also be united with Him in a resurrection like His. For we know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin—because anyone who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over Him. The death He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life He lives, He lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to Him as an instrument of righteousness. For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.” Acts 1:8 (NKJV)“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Sermon Outline and Questions: Pastor Ashley Wilkerson Mark 2:1-12 NIV 1 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. 2 They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. 3 Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. 4 Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 6 Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves, 7 “Why does this fellow talk like that? He's blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?” 8 Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, “Why are you thinking these things? 9 Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk'? 10 But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the man, 11 “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” 12 He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!” 1. What if your COMMUNITY helps determine your CAPACITY? Mark 2:1-3 NIV 1 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. 2 They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. 3 Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them.

Questions: 1. Who do you consider your inner circle of friends? Are they the type of friends that truly carry you when you need it most? In what direction do they tend to carry you? Toward the Lord and what He has for you or toward drama and what the enemy would have you focus on? How can you help foster friendships with healthy and Godly people? 2. Have you ever been in a situation where God gave you something different than what you were asking, but looking back you realize it was for your good? What did you learn from that? How can you apply that to future situations? 3. Do you have opposition in your life right now? How might God be using it to position you for what He has as your next assignment?

Matthew 13:53–58 (NIV) When Jesus had finished these parables, he moved on from there. 54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. “Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?” they asked. 55 “Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? 56 Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?” 57 And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.” 58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.

Key Passage: Titus 2:11-14 NIV &“This is one of prophecy's greatest misconceptions. The Rapture and the Second Coming are often confused, but they are distinct events, with distinct purposes, on God's prophetic timeline.” David Jeremiah Remember:- At the Rapture, Jesus will return for His saints. At the Second Coming, He will return with His saints.- At the Rapture, Jesus will not descend to earth. At the Second Coming, He will descend to the Mount of Olives as a prelude to His earthly reign.- At the Rapture, Jesus will bring a blessing for His saints. At the Second Coming, He will bring judgment for those who have rejected Him.- The Rapture could occur at any moment. The Second Coming will occur seven years later.Biblical Facts About The Second Coming- References to the Second Coming outnumber the first eight to one. - There are 1,845 biblical references to the Second Coming. - The Second Coming is second only to faith as the most dominant subject in the New Testament. Those Who Announced His Second Coming- The Prophets (Zech. 14:3-4) - Jesus Himself (Matt. 24:27, 29-30) - The Angels (Acts 1:11-12)- The Apostle John (Rev. 1:7)The Bible’s Description of His Second Coming 1. His Advent Revelation 4:1 NIV Revelation 19:11-16 NIV "When Jesus arrives on earth the second time, His landing will dramatically herald the purpose of His coming. The moment His feet touch the Mount of Olives, the mountain will split apart, creating a broad passageway from Jerusalem to Jericho. As you can imagine, this will be an unprecedented geological cataclysm.” David Jeremiah - His eyes are described as burning like a flame (Rev. 1:14; 2:18; 19:12).- His head is crowned with many crowns (Rev. 19:12) - His robe is dipped in blood (Rev. 19:13) 2. His Armies Jude 1:14-15 NIV3. His Authority Isaiah 9:6 NIV 4. His Avenging Revelation 19:17-21Now What?- Be Encouraged - Be Anticipating - Be Secure

So he began teaching them many things. By this time it was late in the day, so his disciples came to him. “This is a remote place,” they said, “and it’s already very late. Send the people away so that they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.” But he answered, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “That would take more than half a year’s wages! Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?”John 6:7-11 NIV Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!" Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up, “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?” Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.I’m not looking for big people who can do big things. I’m looking for people who know they are small and surrender to me with all that they have, so that I can use them in the biggest of ways.Matthew 10:7-8 NIV As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.John 6:35 NIV Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.Psalm 107:9 NIV for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.Matthew 19:26 NIV Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”--Links | OKC Community Church

2018/6/10 Ps Rod Plummer ロド　プラマー牧師 Categories: Video: https://osaka.mylifehouse.com/tv/message/honest-heart-fire-heart Honest Heart, Fire Heart "Catch fire (with passion) for God, and people will come and watch you burn". -John Wesley 1 John 1:7 (NIV) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. On one day Jesus meets 5 possible disciples. -John (the author of Gospel of John) -Andrew (the optimism) -Simon Peter (the flawed leader) -Philip (the truth-teller) -Nathaniel (Bartholomew) (the honest, passionate guy) -Nathanael’s honesty 'catches fire' …And it catches God’s attention and 1. Nathanael and Philip loved the Word of God and all its promises for them John 1:43-45 (NIV) The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, “Follow me.” Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida. Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” 2. Nathanael’s honest cry (and Philip’s honest call to seek Jesus) John 1:46 (NIV) “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip. 3. The fire of honesty and searching caught Jesus’ attention John 1:47-48 (NIV) When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.” “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.” 4. Fire!!! John 1:49 (NIV) Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.” 5. The sudden fire in Nathanael caused a prophetic vision from Jesus’ lips John 1:50-51 (NIV) Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that. He then added, “Very truly I tell you, you will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on’ the Son of Man.” (The last sentence is plural - “YOU ALL will see and experience …”) -Jesus referring to Jacob’s experience in Genesis 28:12 Genesis 28:12 (NKJV) Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. Difference is: 1. Promise to Jacob was singular. To disciples was all inclusive! 2. Promise to Jacob - ladder is on the earth. To disciples, ladder is on Jesus! 正直さ、熱い心神様のために（情熱をもって）炎をキャッチすると、人々はあなたが燃える姿を見に来る。-ジョン・ウェズリー 1ヨハネ1:7 (ALIVE訳) しかし、神がいつも光の中にあるように、あなたも光の中を歩め！そうすれば、お互いと、すべての闇から解き放たれ、イエスとの友好関係を存分に楽しむことができる。そして神の一人子イエスが流してくれた血によって過ちは赦される！ 1日でイエスは弟子になる可能性を持った5人に出会うヨハネ(ヨハネの福音書の著者) アンデレ(楽観主義) シモン・ペテロ(不完全なリーダー) ピリポ(真実を語る) ナタナエル(バルトロマイ)(正直で情熱的な人) ナタナエルの正直さが「火をつけた」。そして、神様の目に留まる… 1. ナタナエルとピリポは神様のことばを愛し、そこに記されていた自分たちへの約束が大好きだったヨハネ1:43-45 (ALIVE訳）翌日――彼らにガリラヤ地方へ進んでほしいと願うアンデレ。それをよそにピリポに出会ったイエス――あ、ピリポ！「俺について来い！」ピリポはアンデレとペテロと同じく、ベツサイダ村出身だ。つい今しがたイエスに会ったばかりのピリポもすぐにナタナエルを探し当てると――「聞いてくれ！掟の書物に書かれていた方を見つけたんだ！！代々の預言者たちだって記してきたあの方だ！！！丘の上のナザレ村のヨセフの子、イエスってんだ！！！」 2. ナタナエルの正直な嘆き（とピリポのイエスを求める正直な選択）ヨハネ1:46 (ALIVE訳）「ナザレ村？はッ笑わせるなピリポ！ナザレ村ごときからそんな者が現れる訳ない」「会えば分かる！」 3. 正直さの火と求める思いがイエスの目に留まったヨハネ1:47-48 (ALIVE訳）イエスは自分のもとへ向かってくるナタナエルを見て口を開いた――「彼は信頼に値する正真正銘のイスラエル人だ」――【旧約聖書で、イスラエルの元の名前はヤコブであり、その意味は“嘘・偽り”であり、ヤコブに例えられたのだ。聖書：創世記27：35-36より引用】「と言っても私のことを知らないじゃあないですか」「ピリポが話しをするよりも前に、イチジクの木の下にいるのを見たさ！」 4. ファイヤー！！！ヨハネ1:49 (ALIVE訳) 「先生！あなたこそ神の一人子、イスラエルの王です！！！」 5. ナタナエルの突然の火が、イエスの口から預言的なビジョンを引き起こしたヨハネ1:50-51 (ALIVE訳) 「おいおい、イチジクの木の下にいるのを見たと言っただけで信じるのか？これからあなたが見るものは、こんなもんじゃあないぞ！今から俺が言うこと、それは真実だ――おまえたちはみな、天の窓が開きこの人の上を“天使が行き交う”――【聖書：創世記28:12より引用】光景を目の当たりにする！！！」――【聖書：創世記28:10-17より引用】最後の「おまえたちはみな」は、複数形みんなが見て、目の当たりにするイエスは創世記28:12にあるヤコブの体験を話していた創世記28:12 (JCB) その晩のことで Read rest of the notes 続きを読む https://osaka.mylifehouse.com/tv/message/honest-heart-fire-heart

John 1:47-51 (NIV) "When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.” “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked.
