General Service in Malang, March 08, 2015 (Sunday Morning)
Peace
and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation
2-3 is about the seven times of the sprinkling of blood in front of
the Ark of Covenant. It refers to the last sanctification to the
seven churches of the Gentiles or the church in the last days, until
they are perfect and blameless as Him to be ready to welcome Jesus'
second coming.
Revelation
2:17
2:17
"He
who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To
him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I
will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written
which no one knows except him who receives it."'
God's
promises to the church in Pergamos who overcomes and wants to
experience the last sanctification from Him are as follows.
- Receiving
the hidden manna.
- Receiving
a white stone on which a new name is written.
The
hidden manna is the bread from Heaven, that is the Word of God whose
secret is revealed through a verse explains the other verses in the
Bible.
The
hidden manna is also the angel's bread, meaning the shepherding
Word. It is the true teaching Word that is entrusted by God to a
pastor to be preached to the congregation faithfully, continually,
and repetitively, to become the spiritual food for them so they grow
to spiritual maturity.
There
are three usefulnesses of manna [Exodus 16:16-36] as follows.
- Manna
for caring the daily life [Exodus 16:16-21].
- Manna
for the Sabbath day [Exodus 16:22-31].
- Manna
that is kept in the golden pot [Exodus 16:32-36].
It
is not a loss if we use our time to gather manna these days, since it
gives us guarantee for our present and future life, up to the eternal
one forever.
We
are learning about manna that is kept in the golden pot. It is
written in Exodus 16:32-36 and in the New Testament.
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
term in the New Testament is the golden pot that had the manna. The
spiritual meanings are as follows.
- The
perfect or permanent faith as the pure gold.
It is started with
the right faith, firm faith, up to the perfect faith that is the
works of faith.
- Life
renewal from the flesh man (clay pot) to the spiritual one as Jesus
(golden pot).
What
must be renewed?
Ezekiel
11:19-20
11:19
Then
I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them,
and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of
flesh,
11:20
that
they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them; and
they shall be My people, and I will be their God.
Flesh
man must experience renewal of the heart from the hard heart to the
obedient one as the heart of Jesus. He is obedient until He dies on
the cross for the will of Father.
If
the heart is renewed, our whole life will also be renewed until we
are perfect as Him.
The
process of the renewal of the heart, or the process of the renewal of
our whole life is as follows.
- Water
and Holy Spirit baptism (the Court of Tabernacle).
Matthew
3:16-17 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. 3:17
And
suddenly a voice came
from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well
pleased."
After
Jesus comes up from the grave of water, Holy Spirit like a dove
descends upon Him. Through water and Holy Spirit baptism, we
have a new heart that is like the heart of a dove or a sincere
heart. Acts
19:1-6 19:1
And
it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed
through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some
disciples 19:2
he
said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?"
So
they said to him, "We have not so much as heard whether there is a
Holy Spirit." 19:3
And
he said to them, "Into what then were you baptized?"
So
they said, "Into John's baptism." 19:4
Then
Paul said, "John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance,
saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come
after him, that is, on Christ Jesus." 19:5
When
they heard this,
they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 19:6
And
when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them,
and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.
The
steps of the Gentiles to receive the heart like a dove's are as
follows.
- Believing
Jesus as the only Savior (the Gate).
- Repenting,
meaning stopping sinning to return to God, dying to sins (the Altar
of Burnt Offerings).
- Water
baptism (the Brazen Laver).
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 died to sins must be buried in
water together with Jesus, to be raised together with Him to
receive new life or Heavenly life.
- Holy
Spirit baptism (the door of Tabernacle).
Holy Spirit baptism
also results in new life, that is Heavenly life. Through water
and Holy Spirit baptism, the Gentiles receive a new life with a new
heart, that is a sincere heart. The heart is filled and anointed by
Holy Spirit. A sincere heart has no purpose at all. It is without
hypocrisy, pretense, bitterness, envy, grudge, evil, or
uncleanness. A sincere heart is able to differ the right and the
wrong matters, started with being able to differ the true teaching
Word and the wrong one.
If
we have a sincere heart like a dove, we can become a house of
prayer. We can minister God in faithfulness and righteousness. We
can worship Him in righteousness. Thus, we feel His presence to help
us and give us joy, as well as to do everything we need. Be
careful since in the house of God there are many dove sellers,
meaning being insincere and only looking for physical benefits. The
consequence is the house of God becomes a den of thieves that leads
to perdition. Judas Iscariot is a great apostle but he steals the
belonging of God and kisses Him to sell Him. Judas keeps becoming a
broken clay pot that will be destroyed forever. This morning, if
we are as a broken clay pot, let us come to God since He is able to
renew us to become the golden pot through believing, repenting, and
being baptized in water and Holy Spirit baptism.
- Through
the right and good shepherding pen (the Holy Place).
Exodus
2:11-13 2:11
Now
it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went
out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an
Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren. 2:12
So
he looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed
the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 2:13
And
when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were
fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, "Why are you
striking your companion?"
Moses
was educated for forty years in Egypt, but he remembered to serve
his brothers. Education from the world only produces hard heart
that relies on everything from the world (smartness, richness,
position, et
cetera).
Moses served God with a hard heart and the consequence is he
failed and became a killer. He scattered the body of Christ. Moses
was as a broken clay pot.
But God gave him chance to run to
Midian and became a shepherd. Exodus
2:15 2:15
When
Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses
fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and
he sat down by a well.
Exodus
3:1-3 3:1
Now
Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest
of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came
to Horeb, the mountain of God. 3:2
And
the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire from the
midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with
fire, but the bush was
not consumed. 3:3
Then
Moses said, "I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why
the bush does not burn."
A
shepherding is the place to run from the perdition by Satan
(Pharaoh). Where must we be shepherded? We must be shepherded as
a branch that abides on the true vine. We are shepherded to God or
the true teaching Word. If one is not shepherded, he is as a branch
disconnected from the true vine. He becomes as a dry branch and has
a hard heart. It can be seen from a dry mouth, that likes to lie,
gossip, et
cetera.
A dry branch is only meant to be burnt completely. Especially for
the Gentiles, if they are not shepherded, they will become as a dog
and swine. Dog refers to useless words. Swine refers to sinful deeds
up to the peak of sins, that is sins concerning eating-drinking and
marrying-being given in marriage. But if we want to attach to the
true vine, someday we will bear sweet fruits.
Everyone who
is shepherded must stay within the shepherding pen. In the
Tabernacle, it refers to the Holy Place, where there are three types
of equipment as follows.
- Golden
Candlestick refers to perseverance in General Service. We have
fellowship with Holy Spirit God in His gifts. We experience the
work of the flame of Holy Spirit.
- Table
of Showbread refers to perseverance in Bible Study Service with
Holy Communion. We have fellowship with the Son of God in the true
teaching Word and the sacrifice of Christ. We experience the work
of the flame of the Word of God.
- Golden
Altar of Incense refers to perseverance in Prayer Service. We have
fellowship with Father God in His love. We experience the work of
the flame of His love.
Exodus
3:2 3:2
And
the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire from the
midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with
fire, but the bush was
not consumed.
No
matter how great a flesh man is, he will be destroyed by everything
from this world. But if he is shepherded, the flesh man as a bush
will experience the work of the flame of the Word, Holy Spirit, and
love. The bush will not be consumed by fire, but we are renewed so a
hard heart can become gentle.
Numbers
12:1-3 12:1
Then
Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman
whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman. 12:2
So
they said, "Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He
not spoken through us also?" And the Lord heard it.
12:3
(Now
the man Moses was
very humble, more than all men who were
on the face of the earth.)
Moses
is able to forgive and love the others as loving himself. He is able
to love his enemy and pray for they who are hostile to him.
Revelation
12:1 12:1
Now
a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with
the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve
stars.
Moses
marries Zipporah who is a Gentile. It means if we can minister with
a gentle heart, the Israelites and the Gentiles can be united (it is
started with ministering family, shepherding, inter-shepherding).
But if one ministers with a hard heart, he cannot be rebuked.
- Through
the sprinkling of blood (the Most Holy Place).
1
Peter 4:12-14 4:12
Beloved,
do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try
you, as though some strange thing happened to you; 4:13
but
rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings,
that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding
joy. 4:14
If
you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are
you,
for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He
is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.
Holy
Spirit or the Spirit of glory is able to renew our life so we become
strong and of good courage. It equals to having an obedient heart
whatever the risks we must face.
1
Kings 19:4-5,7 19:4
But
he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and
sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and
said, "It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am
no better than my fathers!" 19:5
Then
as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched
him, and said to him, "Arise and
eat." 19:7
And
the angel of the Lord came back the second time, and touched him,
and said, "Arise and
eat, because the journey is
too great for you."
Elijah
the prophet is desperate in facing false teaching and impossible
temptation. However, he becomes strong again after eating two times,
that is the Word and Holy Communion.
Shadrach, Meshach, and
Abed-Nego face false teaching and false worship. Daniel
3:16-18 3:16
Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, "O
Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. 3:17
If
that is
the case,
our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery
furnace, and He will deliver us
from your hand, O king. 3:18
But
if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your
gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set
up."
But
they keep being strong and of good courage, meaning as follows.
- Keeping
holding fast the true teaching Word.
- Keeping
living in righteousness and not doing sins whatever the risks are.
- Keeping
worshiping God, believing, and fully surrendering our life to Him.
Daniel
3:25 3:25
"Look!"
he answered, "I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the
fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the
Son of God."
The
result is Holy Spirit is able to care our life in the middle of
impossibilities. Holy Spirit is able to solve all impossible
problems right on His time. Holy Spirit is able to give us beautiful
and successful future. Physical and spiritual miracles will happen.
Holy Spirit sets us free from all chains so we are used in the
revival of building the body of Christ. It is until Holy Spirit
renews our life from the flesh man to the spiritual one as Him. It
is started with a shining countenance and a mouth that only worships
God. We are not shaken whatever we face. Thus, He will be with us
until we reach the glorious clouds.
God
blesses us.
