General Service in Malang, April 29, 2018 (Sunday Morning)
Peace
and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation
7:4-8
7:4
And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and
forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel
were sealed.
7:5 of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were
sealed; of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand were sealed; of the
tribe of Gad twelve thousand were sealed;
7:6 of the tribe of
Asher twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Naphtali twelve
thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand were
sealed;
7:7
of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of
Levi twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Issachar twelve
thousand were sealed;
7:8
of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of
Joseph twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Benjamin twelve
thousand were sealed.
One
hundred and forty-four people from Israel received the seal of God on
their foreheads and belonged to Him. It refers to the core of the
perfect church, the body of Christ, and the heavenly bride who is
ready to welcome His second coming on the glorious clouds until
entering the New Jerusalem.
But, In Revelation 7:6, the tribe
of Dan did not receive the seal of God on their foreheads, but he was
replaced by Manasseh.
Why?
Genesis
49:17
49:17
Dan
shall be a serpent
by the way,
A viper
by the path, That bites the horse's heels So that its rider shall
fall backward.
Because
Dan changed from the descendants of Abraham to the ones of the
viper.
Matthew
3:3,7-8
3:3
For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: "The
voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare
the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight."
3:7
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his
baptism, he said to them, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to
flee from the wrath to come?
3:8
"Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance.
John
the Baptist was used by God to prepare the straight path and
heart.
The descendants of viper have bad conscience,
which is neither straight nor sincere, but,
full of wickedness, unclean, and bitterness.
The facts found in it
are as follows:
-
One
does not believe Jesus. It means that he rejects Him as the savior.
-
Rejecting
the true water baptism.
-
Rejecting
the true teaching word which is sharper than any two-edged sword, so
he keeps the carnal life which is sinful up to the peak of sins.
If
the servant and the minister of God have wicked, unclean, and bitter
conscience, they will be used by Babylon, namely the perfection in
wickedness and uncleanness to be destroyed forever.
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!
Living
in this world is determined by heart. Therefore, we need a good
conscience.
How do
we get it?
1
Peter 3:20-21
3:20
who
formerly were disobedient,
when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while
the ark was being prepared, in which
a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
3:21
There is also an
antitype which now saves us--baptism
(not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a
good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus
Christ.
We
get the good conscience through the true water baptism. The true
water baptism is only one like the ark of Noah. Our family can enter
one ark or the true water baptism only by the grace of God.
The
true water baptism is according to the will of God or the Bible. We
must be baptized like Jesus was.
Matthew
3:16
3:16
When
He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water;
and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of
God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.
Romans
6:4
6:4
Therefore we
were buried
with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised
from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk
in newness of life.
The
true water baptism is that one who has believed
and repented or died
to sin must be buried in water with Jesus and come out from water
with Him. So, the heaven is opened and we get the new life or the
heavenly one, namely experiencing the renewal from bad conscience to
the good, straight, and sincere one. So, we are used in edifying the
perfect body of Christ and become the heavenly
bride who is
ready to welcome His second coming on the glorious clouds. We enter
the marriage supper of the Lamb [Revelation 19:9]. Jesus as the Head
and we as the body cannot be separated anymore. After that, we enter
the One Thousand Years Kingdom of Peace [Revelation 20], the New
Jerusalem, or the kingdom of heaven forever. [Revelation 21-22].
The
processes of edifying the perfect body of Christ are as follows:
-
The
building of the Tabernacle of Moses.
Exodus
40:33-34
40:33
And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar,
and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses finished the
work.
40:34
Then the cloud covered the tabernacle of meeting, and the
glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
The
building of the Tabernacle of Moses can accommodate the glory and
the presence of God.
Exodus
25:1-2
25:1
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:
25:2
"Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring Me an
offering. From everyone who gives it willingly
with his heart
you shall take My offering.
The
foundation of the building of the Tabernacle of Moses is a
heart
which willingly gives the offering or the one which
is sanctified from the desire or the love of money that makes people
stingy and greedy.
Acts
20:33-35
20:33
"I have coveted
no one's silver or gold or apparel.
20:34
"Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provided for
my necessities, and for those who were with me.
20:35
"I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that
you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus,
that He said, "It
is more blessed to give than to receive."
The
proof if our heart has been sanctified from the desire of money is
that we can return the tithe and offering that belong to God with a
willing heart and joy. We can give to the work of God and to other
people who are in need with a willing heart and joy until
we can feel more blessed to give than to receive
and we can submit our whole life to Him.
Hebrews
13:5-6
13:5
Let
your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as
you have.
For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake
you."
13:6
So we may boldly say: "The LORD is my helper; I will not fear.
What
can man do to me?"
We
can accommodate the presence or the glory of God and feel His
accompanying
as our Helper and Defender.
He understands, cares, watches, and struggles for us. He protects
and defends us when we face the enemies, so we cannot be made fall,
defeated, or disgraced, but
we are saved,
even glorified by God. He helps us means that He finishes all of our
impossible problems.
-
The
building of the temple of Solomon.
1
Kings 8:10-11
8:10
And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place,
that the cloud filled the house of the LORD.
8:11 so
that the priests could not continue
ministering because of the cloud; for
the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD.
The
temple of Solomon
accommodates
the presence of God, so the atmosphere of the service is
full
of joy, but in order
and honor to God
until kneeling before Him.
1
Kings 6:7
6:7
And the temple, when it was being built, was built with stone
finished at the quarry, so that no hammer or chisel or any iron tool
was heard in the temple while it was being built..
The
foundation of the temple of Solomon is a peaceful heart. It means
that there are no fear, worry, wickedness, and uncleanness, but all
of things are calm and quiet. We do
not feel anything that the flesh feels
We only feel His love.
The greatest source of drowning is
the heart which is not peaceful. Therefore, we must keep the
peaceful heart.
1
John 3:20-22
3:20
For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and
knows all things.
3:21
Beloved, if
our heart does not condemn
us, we have confidence toward God.
3:22
And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His
commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His
sight.
The
good conscience will know if there is wrong
thing in the
heart. If it is finished or it does not condemn us, other people and
Satan cannot condemn us too. God cannot point our sins. Such heart
is the strong foundation to make us the house of prayer. If we
become the house of prayer, we can feel the presence of God to
answer our prayers.
Isaiah
49:14-16
49:14
But Zion said, "The
LORD has forsaken me, And my Lord has forgotten me."
49:15
"Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion
on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet
I will not forget you.
49:16
See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are
continually before Me.
When
we feel that
God forsakes
us, we must do
introspection in our life
until we become the house of prayer. We feel that we are not able
like a baby.
Jesus as the Great Shepherd will bear the powerless
babies for
doing the things as
follows:
-
Preserving
and protecting us who are powerless in the midst of difficulties in
the world, wrath, and danger which will increase. We are protected
until the age of Antichrist who rules over the world for three and
a half years. We are preserved by God through the true teaching
word and Holy Communion. The Bible Study Service is important as a
practice of
the evacuation.
-
Bearing
all of our weariness and burden, so all things become easy and
light.
-
Doing
all things that we cannot do and think. He does the best for us
until we are at the walls of the New Jerusalem to reach the kingdom
of heaven.
-
The
building of the temple in Jerusalem.
John
2:13-15
2:13
Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
2:14
And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves,
and the moneychangers doing business.
2:15 When He had made a
whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep
and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned
the tables
The
temple in Jerusalem cannot accommodate
the glory of God, but the whip, because there is the spirit of
selling and buying or antichrist. The temple turns to be the market
or the den of thieves.
The facts found in it are as follows:
-
Serving
and ministering only to look for physical benefits in illegal way.
-
Looking for the cheap
things, no by
mercy. It means being without the true consecration, so all people
can serve without sanctification, the
right process to be the
priests, and faithfulness. Therefore, we need the sword of the
word.
-
Being
crowded, namely the joy of the flesh or the world without Holy
Spirit.
In
consequence, there is no presence of God. There are
only the beat, condemnation, even
perdition forever.
John
2:19-21
2:19
Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy
this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
2:20
Then the Jews said, "It has taken forty-six years to build
this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?"
2:21
But He was speaking of the temple of His body.
Therefore,
Jesus switches from the physical building of the temple of God to
the spiritual one or the edifying of the perfect body of Christ.
Why?
-
Because
the physical temple has been overpowered by the spirit of selling
and buying.
It cannot accommodate
the presence of God.
-
Because
the physical temple of God was built for forty-six years by the
system of law. So, the Gentiles cannot enter or serve and minister
to God.
Therefore,
the physical temple must be destroyed and raised up in three days.
The number three refers to the death and the resurrection or the
mercy of God, so the Gentiles can enter and serve Him.
The
foundation is destroying the old temple, namely the renewal of
heart. Jesus appears as the Heavenly
Bridegroom
to sanctify and renew our life.
Ephesians
5:25-27
5:25
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and
gave Himself for her,
5:26 that He might sanctify and cleanse
her with the washing of water by the word,
5:27
that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having
spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and
without blemish.
What
must be destroyed?
-
The
arrogant heart, namely being proud of
or relying
on the things in the world such as logic, intelligence, riches, and
position, so one cannot rely on God.
For example, Moses
served two people in Egypt arrogantly. Consequently, He failed and
became a murderer but then, he became the shepherd in Midian. He
was changed from an arrogant man to the humble one. So, God was
with him and used him to set the house of Israel free.
Job
relied on his self-truth which is outside the Bible. The self-truth
means covering sins by blaming other people, even God or the true
teaching word.
Finally,
Job experienced the full test until he sat on dust and ashes..
The
arrogant heart must be changed into the humble one. It means that
we confess that we are only dust and ashes which are not worthy or
able.
Job
42:5-6
42:5
"I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my
eye sees You.
42:6
Therefore I abhor myself, And repent in dust and ashes."
We
confess that we are not able or worthy. We only hope to the mercy
of God. Our eyes only look at Him, our mouth only cries and
surrenders to Him, and we
stretch
our hand to Him. So, His presence is able to restore
us doubly and
perfect our life.
-
Four
added
with six equals to
ten. It refers to the
ten spies who lost
heart, and
got disappointed, and
hopeless in facing the challenge or obstacles, so they murmured and
disobeyed God. Finally, they became carcass. From six hundred and
three thousand, five hundred and fifty
people, only two could enter Canaan.
Loosing heart must be
renewed into
being
strong and courageous like Joshua and Caleb.
Numbers
14:29
14:29
'The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in
this wilderness, all of you who were numbered, according to your
entire number, from twenty years old and above.
Being
strong and courageous means that we are not disappointed and
hopeless. We keep on
hoping, surrendering, and crying
out to God like Joshua and Caleb.
1
Thessalonians 3:13
3:13
so that He
may establish your hearts
blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.
If
we are strong and courageous, Jesus as the King and the Heavenly
Bridegroom
is present to make all things good, beautiful, and perfect. When He
comes for the second time, we are ascended to the glorious clouds
with Him to enter the New Jerusalem forever.
God
blesses you.
