Bible Study Service in Malang, September 25, 2018 (Tuesday Evening)
From
the Service in Medan
Peace
and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Song
of Solomon 3:9-11
3:9.
Of the wood of Lebanon Solomon the King Made himself a
palanquin:
3:10 He made its pillars of silver, Its support of gold, Its
seat of purple, Its interior paved with love By the daughters of
Jerusalem.
3:11 Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King
Solomon with the crown With which his mother crowned him On the day
of his wedding, The day of the gladness of his heart.
The
palanquin refers to a lifter to bring the bridegroom and the bride to
the dais on which they sit.
The
spiritual meanings of the palanquin are as follows.
- The
movement is forward. It refers to the revival of Holy Spirit at the
latter rain or the one of the edification of the perfect body of
Christ.
- One
who is used in the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain or the
edification of the perfect body of Christ until being the heavenly
bride who is ready to welcome Jesus' second coming on the glorious
clouds and enter the marriage supper of the Lamb (verse 11).
The
palanquin was made of the wood of Lebanon. It refers to the sinful
Gentiles.
The wood refers to the men in flesh and blood.
Lebanon
refers to the Gentiles.
Thus, the sinful Gentiles are used in
the revival of the edification of the perfect body of Christ.
The
requirements are as follows.
-
Verse 10: '
He made its pillars of silver'.
The silver refers to the blood of Jesus. The Gentiles must be
redeemed first and then they can be used in the revival of the
edification of the perfect body of Christ.
- Verse
10: '
Its support of gold '.
1
Peter 1:6-7
1:6.
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need
be, you have been grieved by various trials,
1:7 that the
genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that
perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise,
honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,
The
gold refers to the tested faith up to the prefect one.
In
Tabernacle, there are three levels of faith until reaching the
perfect one as follows.
-
The true
faith.
It refers to the Court.
The
steps of having the true faith are as follows.
- Entering
through the
Gate.
It means believing
and receiving Jesus as the Savior through hearing the Word.
Romans
10:17
10:17.
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of
God.
The
true faith comes by hearing the Word of Christ or the one which is
anointed by Holy Spirit.
If we hear the Word in the anointing
of Holy Spirit, the following things will happen.
- We
can understand the Word. It is written on our forehead.
- We
can believe the Word, so it becomes faith in our heart. It is
written in our heart.
Hebrews
8:10-12
8:10.
"For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their
mind
and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they
shall be My people.
8:11 "None of them shall teach his
neighbor, and none his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for
all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.
8:12 "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness,
and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more."
After
the Word is written on our forehead and heart, we can know Jesus as
the Savior, so we can believe Him.
Romans
10: 10
10:10.
For with the
heart
one believes
unto righteousness, and with
the mouth confession is made
unto salvation.
With
the heart we believe and with the mouth confession is made. It
means that we can confess our sins to God and other people, so we
get the forgiveness. We are justified and saved. We are not
condemned, but blessed by God.
-
The Altar of
Burnt Offerings.
It refers to believing
in Jesus and repenting.
After being justified, saved, and forgiven, do not commit the
sins anymore. We must stop sinning and return to God. We die to sin
or repent. Then, we can be raised to live in righteousness.
This
is the true faith that brings us to the righteous life.
Not
confessing sin or not repenting is the same as not having faith or
the faith is not true.
Psalm
37: 25-26
37:25.
I have been young, and now am old; Yet I
have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Nor his descendants begging bread.
37:26 He is ever merciful,
and lends; And his
descendants are blessed.
If
the faith is true and we live in righteousness, we will be blessed
up to our descendants and we become blessings for others until we
have the eternal life.
- The
holy or firm faith.
It refers to the
Table of Showbread
in the Holy Place.
It is filled with twelve loaves which are set
in two rows; six in a row. So, we find the number sixty six that
refers to the sixty six books in the Bible or the true teaching
Word.
The loaves also refer to the body of Christ.
Moreover,
there is the pouring of wine that refers to the blood of Jesus.
Exodus
25:29
25:29.
"You shall make its dishes, its pans, its pitchers, and its
bowls for pouring.
You shall make them of pure gold.
Thus,
the loaves and the pouring are the same as the Holy
Communion.
Combining them, the Table of Showbread refers to
the
perseverance in doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy
Communion.
We get the holy or firm faith through the perseverance in
doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy Communion, so the
teaching Word is ingrained in our life. Our faith becomes holy or
firm.
The true teaching Word is the sanctifying one, so our
faith can be holy. It is also the same as the solid food, so our
faith can be firm.
The Bible Study Service with the Holy
Communion is so important. There will be the difference between one
who perseveres in doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy
Communion and the other who does not persevere. The difference will
be real when the shakings happen.
1
Peter 5: 8-9
5:8.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the
devil
walks about like a
roaring lion,
seeking whom he may devour.
5:9 Resist him, steadfast
in the faith,
knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood
in the world.
The
firm faith is useful to face the lion or the devil that attacks
through two ways as follows.
- The
roaring.
It refers to the temptations in all aspects of life to make one
doubtful until he falls from faith or does not believe in Jesus or
the true teaching Word.
The doubt happens when one magnifies the
temptations more than the Word like the ten spies who magnified the
temptation more than God's power.
The firm faith keeps on
believing that the power of God or the Word is greater than the
problem. Although we are not helped, we keep on being strong in the
Lord, giving thanks, and being peaceful.
Even when God permits
our beloved passes away, we do not become sorrowful continually (1
Thessalonians 4: 13). Being sorrowful continually means magnifying
the temptations more than the Word.
- The
biting and swallowing.
Amos
3:12
3:12.
Thus says the LORD: "As a shepherd takes from the
mouth of a lion
Two legs
or a piece of an ear,
So shall the children of Israel be taken out Who dwell in
Samaria--In the corner of a bed and on the edge of a couch!
There
are two legs and a piece of an ear in the mouth of lion.
- The
legs are bit and swallowed, so one does not have the firm
standpoint to the true teaching Word. The legs are corrupted, so
one doubts the true teaching Word or God Himself, especially in
facing the wind and waves or the threat and difficulties.
- The
ear is bit so that one hears the false teachings. The ear has been
bitten when one still hears the false teaching although he knows
that it is false.
2
Timothy 4: 3-4
4:3.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine,
but according to their own desires, because they
have itching ears,
they will heap up for themselves teachers;
4:4 and they will
turn their ears away from the truth, and be
turned aside to fables.
The
ear is bitten by Satan, so one willingly and bravely hears the
fables, false teachings, and illustrations which cannot be
accounted for until he does not want to hear the true teaching
Word anymore.
Hearing two kinds of teaching, someday one
will not want to hear the voice of God anymore like Eve. She had
heard the voice of God and the serpent and then she chose the
voice of the serpent.
1
Timothy 4:1-2
4:1.
Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will
depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving
spirits
and doctrines
of demons,
4:2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their
own conscience seared with a hot iron,
'deceiving
spirits'=
there is spirit in every teaching.
There is the stamp or spirit
of Satan in the false teaching. The conscience will be stamped
with the stamp of Satan or triple six until one does not want to
hear the true teaching Word. He falls from faith and perishes
forever.
By
the perseverance in doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy
Communion, our faith becomes firm or holy, so we have a firmness to
hold fast the one true teaching Word and reject the other teachings.
We only hear the one true teaching Word. As a result, we get the
sanctification. It begins from the heart and mind up to our whole
life.
Markus
7:21-22
7:21.
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
adulteries(1), fornications(2), murders(3),
7:22 thefts(4),
covetousness(5), wickedness(6), deceit(7), lewdness(8), an evil
eye(9), blasphemy(10), pride(11), foolishness(12).
If
the heart and mind are sanctified from the twelve lusts of evil,
uncleanness, and bitterness, our heart will be filled with the
twelve loaves which are set in two rows; six in a row. It means that
we are filled with the true teaching Word and the Holy Communion
that become a brake so that we do not commit sins, but live in
holiness.
The firm or holy faith is useful to face the
Babylon that rules over the Gentiles.
Revelation
17:1,5-6,15
17:1.
Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked
with me, saying to me, "Come, I will show you the judgment of
the
great harlot who sits on many waters,
17:5 And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON
THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
17:6
I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the
blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with
great amazement.
17:15 Then he said to me, "The
waters which you saw,
where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations,
and tongues.
'many
waters'=
the Gentiles.
Revelation
18: 2
18:2.
And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, "Babylon the
great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a
dwelling place of demons,
a prison for every foul
spirit,
and a cage for every unclean and hated
bird!
There
must be no evil or the bond of money which causes stinginess and
greediness, uncleanness or the sins concerning eating-drinking and
marrying-being given in marriage, as well as the bitterness or
hatred. If such sins still remain, one is being ruled over by
Babylon. Such sins must be faced with a holy faith.
-
The perfect
faith
like the
golden pot that had the manna
in the Most Holy Place.
Hebrews
9:4
9:4.
which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on
all sides with gold, in which were the
golden pot that had the manna,
Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;
The
Ark of the Covenant is in the Most Holy Place.
How great a man
in the world is, he is only like a clay pot which is easily broken
or disappointed, hopeless, and proud. He easily commits sins until
being destroyed.
Therefore, we must be the golden pot
through being filled with manna.
Psalm
78: 23-25
78:23.
Yet He had commanded the clouds above, And opened the doors of
heaven,
78:24 Had
rained down manna
on them to eat, And given them of the bread of heaven.
78:25
Men ate angels'
food;
He sent them food to the full.
Manna
refers to the angels' food.
The bread refers to the Word of
God.
The angel refers to the pastor.
Thus, the angels' food
refers to the shepherding Word or the true teaching Word which God
entrusts to a pastor that he may deliver it to the congregation
faithfully, continually, and repetitively to become the food and
they can grow spiritually to the perfection. It also becomes the
guidance so that our direction is true, namely to the New Jerusalem
or the last sheepfold.
2
Corinthians 4:7-9
4:7.
But we have this treasure
in earthen
vessels,
that the
excellence of the power
may be of God and not of us.
4:8 We are hard pressed on every
side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
4:9
persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not
destroyed--
'treasure'=
the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ (verse 4).
We
must be filled with the true teaching Word which is preached
repetitively or the shepherding Word so that we have the abundant
power from God to face the sprinkling of blood or the suffering in
the flesh because of Jesus or the cross.
Why
does God let us undergo the sprinkling of blood?
- To
increase our faith until it becomes perfect like the pure gold.
1
Peter 1:6-7
1:6.
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need
be, you have been grieved by various
trials,
1:7 that the
genuineness of your faith,
being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is
tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the
revelation of Jesus Christ,
We
will never be disappointed and hopeless regardless of anything we
must face. We keep on giving thanks to God.
- To
make the life of Jesus be manifested in our life.
The clay pot is changed to become the golden one. The men in flesh
and blood are renewed to be the glorious ones as Jesus is.
2
Corinthians 4:10
4:10.
always carrying about in the body the
dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the
life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.
The
renewal begins from not lying.
Revelation
21:8
21:
8 "But the cowardly(1),
unbelieving(2),
abominable(3),
murderers(4),
sexually immoral(5),
sorcerers(6),
idolaters(7),
and all liars(8)
shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and
brimstone, which is the second death."
The
lie is the end of the sins. It means that one has the other seven
sins when he still lies.
On the contrary, there are not seven
other sins anymore when one does not lie until there is no fear. We
only have the fear of the Lord. We are sanctified and renewed
continually until someday we are as perfect as Jesus is. We become
the heavenly bride who is ready to welcome Jesus' second coming
on the glorious clouds.
As
the conclusion, we are undergoing the following exercise of faith
when we get the sprinkling of blood or the suffering in the flesh
because of Jesus.
-
To increase our
faith until it becomes perfect and we are worthy to welcome Jesus'
second coming.
- The
exercise of walking on the New Jerusalem, whose floor is made of
gold. We are walking on the New Jerusalem, whose floor is made of
gold, when we face the test or temptation.
Revelation
21: 21
21:21.
The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one
pearl. And the
street of the city was pure gold,
like transparent glass.
Do
not be afraid when we fall in undergoing such exercise because we
are being guided by God. He will never let us fall.
Revelation
7: 17
7:17.
"for the
Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd
them and lead
them
to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe
away every tear
from their eyes."
'shepherd
'=
the proof of the importance of the shepherding because there is
still the shepherding on the throne of heaven.
We are being led
to the New Jerusalem or the last sheepfold by the merciful hands of
the High Priest and the Great Shepherd. He will wipe away our tears.
It means that all problems are solved; we have the joy and the
beautiful and successful future life; and our fall or failure will
be lifted up and restored.
God
blesses you.
