Acts 13:6-116 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus. 7 He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) opposed them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith. 9 But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him 10 and said, “You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand.Who was Elymas?We find the man named Bar-Jesus in the Scripture we just readThe name Bar-Jesus means “son of Joshua” or “son of the Savior.”The setting of the story of Bar-Jesus is Paul's first missionary journey. Through prayer, fasting, and the Holy Spirit's leading, the church in Antioch had selected Barnabas and Saul, who was also called Paul, to be sent out as missionaries.When they arrived in Paphos, the western port and capital of the island, they were invited to meet with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, who was Roman governor of the region.Among the governor's attendants was Bar-Jesus, a man who made his living practicing magic. He also claimed to be a prophet of God.MagiciansAs far as magicians in the Bible go, Elymas isn't the first name that comes to mind. Simon the sorcerer was the first to plunge himself into infamy. Peter severely rebuked him for offering money for the ability to pass on the gifts of the Holy Spirit (Acts 8:18)Elymas did his best to thwart the apostle Paul's evangelistic efforts to win the Proconsul, Sergius Paulus, to Christ. While the gospel message was convicting the heart of Sergius Paulus, Elymas was busy contradicting its messengers.Galatians 5:20idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,The miracleFilled with the Holy Spirit's power, Paul looked intently at Bar-Jesus and said, “You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are going to be blind for a time, not even able to see the light of the sun” (Acts 13:10–11).Immediately, the magician was afflicted with temporary blindness and began groping around for someone to guide him by the hand. The magician's name Bar-Jesus meant “son of the Savior,” but Paul called him “child of the devil,” a wordplay that would not have been lost on Sergius Paulus.Sometimes when the gospel is preached, Satan will plant stumbling blocks and detractors like Bar-Jesus in the path of those who are seeking to understand the truth. But God is able to remove all obstacles.When the governor saw what had happened to the sorcerer, he was astonished by the teaching he had just received from Barnabas and Paul, and he became a believerRevelation 21:8But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.'

I read a story of a guy who has been in a house since 98- do you know what squatters do? Look for vacant houses- they don't move into where someone isThose who reject Christ are found in the end, worse of than the beginning- bc of empty house2 Peter 2:21 For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.The simple answer is- Don't reject Christ or you're not going to turn out well. This is what was happening during the time of the protestant reformation (the time when Christians broke off from the Catholic Church) The Catholic church WAS Christianity and it was in disrepair- it had wholly become something that was not doing what it was supposed to do- setting people free from sin- quite opposite- it was freeing people to sin- The pope in the early 1500s was Leo X- a man who history has not regarded well- The supreme leader of the catholic church at the time- used money from the church for his own art, allowed people to buy their way into heaven, he enlisted other cardinals to collect money for his personal use. Many claim he wasn't even a professing Christian- but pope nonetheless He was quoted as saying “How very profitable this fable of Christ has been to us through the ages.”. And that's what he did- used Christ for his own Gain- He was- in fact- not a Christian while leading the global Christian church at the timeA man, who rejected Christ, who found himself 7 times worse because he had not ChristThis is an historical example of a man without Christ- all of the outward appearances of godliness- a pope, a leader, the right clothes, words, actions and power- all useless in his pursuit of righteousness- because of his refusal to accept the simple offer of Salvation that Christ offers- he was an empty house that an evil spirit moved into. Its people like this that profane the name of Christ that people use as a reason to not accept Christ- people who are CINA Christians in Name only- Rejection of Christ and reception of evil because the house is found emptyHere's a truth- there is a no-option option- every- body- house- has a spirit choose to receive Christ- We know we're spirits- “stinky Stanley” “That isn't you- you're matthew be matthew” And so today is the 504th anniversary of Martin Luthers day of ReformationI Think its important that we celebrate it today- it encapsulates why we are not CatholicIts important because it encapsulates who we are as protestants. (People wonder these things) Over 504 years ago on 31 oct 1517 there was a monk named Martin luther who nailed 95 thesis on to the door of a church in GermanyThe church door in those days was like a facebook wall- it invited debate on an issue. Someone printed a bunch of copies (thanks to Gutnebergs new press) and the rest is historyLuthers parents wanted him to be a lawyer, but while in law school he was almost struck by lightening.

This is the final episode in a series. Previously we took a 30,000 foot look at three words which run in the background of our thinking and doing.O God - show me how to live well. Psalm 143:8 paraphraseWe begin with ‘Why' because it reveals our hidden motivations and is the seat of vision. ‘What' brings vision to the context of our lives -- it sets the floor and ceiling of what we are all about. ‘How' is the architect's plans from which the structure is built.For years I've looked at “how” from the standpoint of “How am I going to get something done?” My answer to that question resulted in creating a critical path -- the micro-steps which, I think, will get me from here to there.Recently though, I am considering other ways of looking at “how.” Perhaps you too will have other ways to consider. Here then are some new thoughts on “how.”How am I going to proceed? In a hurry? Before I have really decided on the ‘why' and ‘what' of it all? Will I proceed with God and the counsel of others or will I rely on my own perspective?.How will it unfold? Will I insist on perfection or view it as a process of discovery? Will I go into it without anticipating unintended consequences?How have I prepared for it? With wishful thinking or did I, as Mark Batterson says, “dream big, pray hard, and think long”? Am I prepared for it to take longer than I expect?How much do I want it? Have I counted the cost, or as much as I can imagine, and am I willing to pay the price? As Matt Fitzgerald wrote in How Bad Do You Want It?, “The only proof of wanting it more is suffering more.” How will I stay on track? This perhaps is one question which is most neglected, yet most essential. All too often we start well but finish poorly. To keep on track I use a written plan, daily review, and a daily punch list of to-do's to increase my chances of success.Like the old Spanish Proverb says, Choose whatever you want and then pay for it.PrayO God I want my one time on the planet to be a life of purpose. Help me choose wisely how I proceed.ReadThe chapter on the Daily Core Four in Chasing the Sage, page 165 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

https://youtu.be/IuEpU88wnuU YOU ARE THE MAN 2 Sam 12:1-15 Nathan comes to David- tells him a parable- Rich man had a lot, poor man had nothing but one lamb. Rich man took this poor mans one lamb. David is upset! What kind of guy does this? He should be punished! You david- You're this kind of Guy.  Then Nathan give him a prophetic word- why did you kill Uriah after I had given you everything? You messed up now. I still love you- but you're going to be  aking of war. Your own son is going to be a problem for you. David admits his fault- but there is going to be consequence. Special window- we have psalm 51 so we can see David's response and heart in thisThis is a story of redemption- From sinner to forgiven- It's the story of our faith- How do we get there? The bible and its stories are meant for US not others- Its to change US Step one- You Have to see yourself David hears the parable and assumes its about someone else- The parable is quite simple- the rich man takes what the poor man has and pays him no mindDavid's initial response- someone shows deeds of someone else- they scorn that person,shame them (Its like- why is the Prez on SM- just causes problems- let it go-but they dont)5 So David's anger was greatly aroused against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the Lord lives, the man who has done this [a]shall surely die! 6 And he shall restore fourfold for the lamb, because he did this thing and because he had no pity.”Typical for people- they can see the problems with other people easier than they can see them in themselves.  (Notice what people complain in others is usually what they struggle with)David even goes so far to decide a judgment against the man- Death, and 4 fold payback. AND how his heart SHOULD have been- with pity for the one who didn't have enoughDavid could easily see what was wrong with this other man- but missed the point completely- 7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are the man! THIS STORY IS ABOUT YOUHe couldn't see himself because he assumed that he was good-THIS HAPPENS IN CHURCH- YOU'RE thinking about who should hear this instead of LISTENING In his eyes he was perfect, had nothing to work on- even AFTER murder against Uriah- How do you murder someone and see no problem with it? (People murder people with their tongues, hearts and actions and have no problem with it, so I can understand it)He eventually saw himself-  Psalm 51:5-6 READ Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.David eventually saw himself- but here- he didn't immediately- thought it was someone else What does it mean to you?Where is the first place you look when you're having a problem? Others? Or do you start with yourself? If the list of the problems in your life are all connected with everyone else- wrongUsing your parents, past job, pastor, church, friend, etc etc as scapegoat is a recipe for disasterLamentations 3:40  Let us search out and examine our ways, And turn back to the Lord;Its easy to sit up here and say “every problem in your life is yours” but that's not true- But only YOU can choose how you are going to respond and deal with it- The TRUTH is that often times- the problem IS you- For me- My thoughts, feelings, how I feel about myself. What I want, think I deserve. How I slept, my weight, what I'm doing. But the path to repentance and spiritual discovery lies in HONEST assessment of yourself. Gal 6:3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.1 Cor 11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.Romans 12:3 READThe path to redemption- First or continually is to always start with yourself- HONESTLYLuke 18:9-14 READ Favorite parable- ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—Pr 26:12  Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He also has rejected you from being king.”It has seeds of rebellion at its foundation and core- it can never be blessedGod never blesses rebellion- A rebellious child can never receive the blessing of their parentsThe story of the Prodigal is not that his father blessed his rebellion- it was that the rebellious son came to himself and begged for mercy- there could be no blessing any other way. What does it mean to you? Where's the rebellion in your life? The problem with rebellion is that its easy to see in others and hard to see in ourselvesIf I asked you to think of someone you know who is rebellious- you could think of oneBut what area of rebellion is in your heart? Not in your actions. Your heart-thoughts-desiresThe seeds of the mind get planted in the heart and produce crops of bloody rebellionPsalm 68:6 God sets the lonely in families,  he leads out the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.It's a bad place- we don't want to live there- we get nothing good there- College- library to bathrooms promoted to stairways- sportscenter- Another guy did it, so I followed suit- and the main guy watching us didn't even care- once over- REBELLIONDeuteronomy 9:7  “Remember! Do not forget how you provoked the Lord your God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that you departed from the land of Egypt until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against the Lord.That's brooms- How much more when our heart is rebellious towards the Lord?The OT is full of stories of rebellion and the fruit of it- we should destroy it in our lives! The blood of Division (Division is the fruit of defiance- rebellion breeds division with others) Abner and joab are watching these 12 by 12 go at it- 16 And each one grasped his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his opponent's side; so they fell down together. BLOODSHEDIshbosheth was never intended to be king- Saul in 1 sam lost the right to kingship  and upon his death- Abner took it upon himself to make Ishbosheth (Sauls son) king- 2 sam 2:8 READThe men of Judah made David King because they knew he was the rightful king- but the line of Saul (Israel) was not seeing it that waySaul was told he would not be king- 1 Samuel 13:14  READ2 sam 2:4 Then the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were the ones who buried Saul.”It caused a riff in the Nation of Israel- some followed Israel and some followed David in the Kingdom of Judah as the rightful king- It causes a 7 year civil war with ishbosheth that will end with his assisination Isreal will actually split again, but it will be after King solomonIts division. Its self seeking. Its going against God's plan.
