General Service in Malang, February 03, 2013 (Sunday Morning)
Peace
and grace in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Matthew
28 refers to shekinah glory or the light of glory.
Matthew 28 is
divided into three parts as follows.
- Matthew
28:1-10 is about the resurrection of Jesus that refers to the
renewal of life.
The light of glory shines the dark heart to
become a gentle one, so there is renewal from flesh man to become
spiritual man.
- Matthew
28:11-15 is about the lie of the council that refers to the spread
of the darkness.
- Matthew
28:16-20 is about the command to preach the Gospel that refers to
the spread of the light.
We
still learn the second part.
Matthew
28:11-15
28:11.
Now while they
were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported
to the chief priests all the things that had happened.
28:12
When they had
assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large
sum of money to the soldiers,
28:13
saying, "Tell
them, 'His disciples came at night and stole Him away
while we slept.'
28:14
And if this comes
to the governor's ears, we will appease him and make you
secure."
28:15
So they took the
money and did as they were instructed; and this saying is commonly
reported among the Jews until this day.
The
spread of the darkness is the spread of false testimony or teaching
that rejects the death and resurrection of Jesus.
The spread of
the darkness or false teaching is encouraged by these two powers.
- The
power of money or mammon, namely the spirit of selling-buying or the
spirit of antichrist.
- The
power of lying spirit or the power of false prophet.
We
are discussing the first one.
Matthew
21:12-14
21:12
Then Jesus went
into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in
the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the
seats of those who sold doves.
21:13
And He said to
them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of
prayer,' but you have made it a 'den of thieves.'"
21:14
Then the
blind and the
lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them.
The
practices of the spirit of selling-buying are as follows.
- Ministering
God with the aim to look for physical benefit.
- Being
garrulous.
Revelation
13:5-6
13:5
And he was given
a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given
authority to continue for forty-two months.
13:6
Then he opened
his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His
tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven.
It
means that the mouth is used to comment negatively, insult, slander,
up to blaspheme God and the true teaching Word.
The
spirit of selling-buying causes the body of Christ blind and lame
spiritually, so it will not be perfect and be left in Jesus' second
coming.
The meaning of being blind spiritually is as follows.
- Rejecting
the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ because of being
stubborn.
2
Corinthians 4:3-4
4:3
But even if our
gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,
4:4
whose minds the
god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of
the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should
shine on them.
- Forgetting
the forgiveness, meaning repeating the sins up to the peak of sins.
2 Peter 1:5-9
1:5
But also for this
very reason, giving all diligence, add to your (1)faith (2)virtue,
to virtue (3)knowledge,
1:6
to knowledge
(4)self-control, to self-control (5)perseverance, to perseverance
(6)godliness,
1:7
to godliness
(7)brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness (8)love.
1:8
For if these
things are yours and abound, you
will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord
Jesus Christ.
1:9
For he who lacks
these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten
that he was cleansed from his old sins.
The
true teaching Word is the only brake so we do not repeat sins behind
and will not be entrapped by the sins ahead. Life who rejects the
true teaching Word will fall and rise in sins.
Rejecting the
true teaching Word means rejecting the sacrifice of Christ. The
consequence is not having eight spiritual growths [2 Peter 1:5-7].
One will be in total failure and perished.
Thus,
sanctification to the spirit of selling-buying equals to recovery
from being blind spiritually. We are purified so our eyes are opened
and may have eight spiritual growths.
It means as follows.
- Entering
the building of spiritual house of God (with foundation and seven
pillars). It is the same as eight people who enter the ark of Noah
and they are being saved.
Proverbs
9:1
9:1 Wisdom
has built her house,
She has hewn out her seven pillars;
- As
four couples of bride who enter the ark of Noah.
It means we are
being the bride of God who is gathered from the four corners of the
earth, in order to be lifted up to the glorious clouds in His second
coming.
2
Peter 1:5-7
1:5
But also for this
very reason, giving all diligence, add to your (1)faith (2)virtue, to
virtue (3)knowledge,
1:6
to knowledge
(4)self-control, to self-control (5)perseverance, to perseverance
(6)godliness,
1:7
to godliness
(7)brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness (8)love.
The
process of entering the building of the body of Christ or spiritual
growth until we become the bride of God is as follows.
- Faith
= the Gate.
Romans
10:17
10:17 So
then faith comes
by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Faith
comes by hearing the word of Christ, that is the Word anointed by
the Holy Spirit.
The lessons for us are as follows.
- A
pastor must not preach the Word with human wisdom, but with the
anointing of Holy Spirit, so the Word preached becomes faith.
1
Corinthians 2:3-5
2:3
I
was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
2:4
And
my speech and my preaching were
not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of
the Spirit and of power,
2:5
that
your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of
God.
- The
congregation must hear the Word in the anointing of Holy Spirit.
Luke
8:18
8:18
Therefore
take heed how you hear. For whoever has, to him more
will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he seems to
have will be taken from him."
In
the anointing of Holy Spirit, we will be able to hear the Word
solemnly, understand, believe and have faith, up to practice the
Word.
Hebrews
5:11-12
5:11
of
whom we have much to say, and hard to explain, since you have
become dull of hearing.
5:12
For
though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone
to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and
you have come to need milk and not solid food.
Also
we will be swift in hearing the Word. It means we do not hear only
the gospel of the Word (milk), but also the teaching Word (solid
food).
If
we have received the faith, the result is entering the gate of
salvation. Our faith will grow to steadfast faith, up to perfect
faith.
If we do not hear the Word solemnly, we will lose our
faith up to lose the salvation [Luke 8:18].
- Virtue
= the Altar of Burnt Offerings.
It refers to the cross or
sacrifice of Christ.
Virtue is the deed based on the
sacrifice of Christ, not only just good deed.
The major good
deed comes from Jesus who dies on the cross to erase our sins.
Therefore, our major good deed waited by God is repenting and dying
from sins.
Good deed without repentance is useless even it is an
evil in front of God.
- Knowledge
= the Brazen Laver.
Philippians
3:10
3:10 that
I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship
of His sufferings, being conformed to His death,
The
beginning is we know Jesus who dies and resurrects. It refers to the
true water baptism.
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 one who has repented must be buried with Jesus
in water, to rise with Him in new life, that is life in
righteousness. Moreover, we become an instrument of righteousness,
meaning ministering God faithfully and righteously.
The ones
who enter the ark of Noah are four couples of bride. It means
husband and wife must enter one true water baptism. If a marriage
does not have one baptism, sometime they will be separated.
- Self-control
= the door of Tabernacle.
It refers to the baptism of Holy
Spirit.
Holy Spirit helps us to kill flesh with all its desire,
lust, emotion, and ambition. The result is being patient in
suffering, not grumbling, not blaming the others, and being patient
in waiting God's time.
Holy Spirit makes us able to say
"Abba, Father", meaning we can be obedient. Being obedient will
result in success in this world, up to success in Heaven.
- Perseverance
= the Holy Place.
- Godliness
= sanctification and ministry.
The fifth and sixth point are
merged. They refer to perseverance in three main services as
follows.
- Golden
Candlestick, which refers to perseverance in General Service.
- Table
of Showbread, which refers to perseverance in Bible Study Service
and Holy Communion.
- Golden
Altar of Incense, which refers to perseverance in Prayer Service.
The
result is we will experience spiritual growth until we may confess,
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want ". Our life
will only depend on the Great Shepherd.
The term "I shall
not want" means as follows.
- He
is able to care our life abundantly, meaning we always give thanks
to God. We always get what we need in time.
- Spiritually
it means we will be perfect as Jesus is.
- Brotherly
kindness.
- Love.
Matthew
5:43-45,48
5:43
"You have heard
that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your
enemy.'
5:44
But I say to you,
love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who
hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute
you,
5:45 that
you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise
on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the
unjust.
5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father
in heaven is perfect.
We
have the perfect love so we can love God more than everything and
love the others even our enemy.
Having the perfect love equals
to having the two tablets of stone. The perfect love is able to
destroy the golden calves. It means as follows.
- Destroying
sins up to the peak of sins.
- Destroying
idolatry, that is everything that prevents us to love God.
- Destroying
the stubbornness, so we become tender.
Mark
13:28-29
13:28
"Now learn
this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become
tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.
13:29
So you also,
when you see these things happening, know that it is near--at the
doors!
We
learn from the fig tree that is hard and failed to bear fruit. We
learn to become tender.
- The
first lesson is in the Garden of Eden. The leaves are used to
cover nakedness.
It refers to self-truth, covering sins by
blaming the others, even blaming the true teaching Word. The
consequence is falling in the curse of this world and failures.
Job also still uses self-truth, and he fails until loses
all his possession.
Job
32:1-2
32:1
So
these three men ceased answering Job, because he was
righteous in his own eyes.
32:2
Then
the wrath of Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family
of Ram, was aroused against Job; his wrath was aroused because he
justified himself rather than God.
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."
But
Job becomes tender and confesses his sins, especially his sinful
words, up to the peak of sins. He throws off all his proudness.
Thus, he is in the hand of the Potter, and experiences double
recovery physically and spiritually.
- The
second lesson is the fig tree in the wayside. It means being not
shepherded.
A youth must learn from the fig tree in the
wayside that does not bear fruit. We must not leave the
shepherding, be unfaithful and disobedient. The consequence is
being humbled and having no beautiful future.
1
Peter 5:5
5:5
Likewise
you younger people, submit yourselves to your
elders. Yes, all of you
be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for
"God
resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble."
This
morning, we learn to become tender, and God will exalt us.
- The
third lesson is in the last days. The fig tree has been tender,
meaning we can confess that we live from the mercy and grace of
God.
John
11:31-32
11:31
Then
the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when
they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her,
saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."
11:32
Then,
when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His
feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother
would not have died."
Lazarus
who has died for four days refers to failures physically,
downfalls, sufferings, tears, impossibilities, also spiritual
decays. Facing these problems, we must not weep and blame God. The
true attitude is falling down at Jesus' feet and confessing all
our lacks and weaknesses. We confess that we live from the mercy
and grace of God. Thus, He is able to make miracles in our life.
God
blesses us.
