General Service in Malang, March 27, 2011 (Sunday Morning)
Matthew
26:6-10, 12 26:6. And when Jesus was in Bethany at
the house of Simon the leper, 26:7 a
woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant
oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at
the table. 26:8 But
when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying,
"Why this waste? 26:9 For
this fragrant oil might have been sold for much and given to the
poor." 26:10 But when
Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, "Why do you
trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me. 26:12
For in pouring this fragrant oil on My body, she did it
for My burial.
A
human life in the world is just as a clay pot which is fragile and
easily broken. It means as follows:
-
easily being desperate and disappointed, even
suicide,
-
easily being proud,
-
easily doing sins,
-
until being destroyed and perished forever.
If
a clay pot is filled with knowledge/ high degree, richness, position,
etc. from this world, its value in the world is increased as an
alabaster flask. But, it must be
remembered that an alabaster flask is still fragile and will be
destroyed/ perished forever.
Therefore,
a clay pot must be filled with Heavenly matters (the Word, the
anointing of Holy Spirit) such that it
is not fragile and broken, but becomes life
who is endurable and hardy in facing temptations, sins,
such that he may become perfect and as
glorious as Jesus (the golden pot that had the manna).
In
Matthew 26:6-13, there
are four sins which prevent the anointing of Holy Spirit (destroy the
clay pot) as follows:
-
Sin of leprosy.
Matthew
26:6 26:6. And when Jesus was in Bethany at the
house of Simon the leper,
-
Sin of leprosy = self-truth sin (it
is white, but it is leprosy), that is:
-
covering sins by blaming the others,
-
covering sins by blaming God or the true
teaching Word, through many schemes.
The consequence is cannot repenting, being
really destroyed and perished.
-
Leviticus 13:45
13:45
"Now the leper on whom the sore is, his
clothes shall be torn and his head bare; and he shall cover his
mustache, and cry, 'Unclean! Unclean!'
Sin
of leprosy = uncleanness.
-
Way of dressing which is unclean and showing
the flesh.
We may follow the
fashion, but it should not show the flesh. Be careful!
- Sin deeds up to the peak of sins, that is
eating-drinking sins (smoking, drinking, gambling, consuming
drugs) and marrying-giving sins (sexuality sins, wrong marriage).
-
Luke 17:16-17
17:16
and fell down on his face at His feet, giving
Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. 17:17
So Jesus answered and said, "Were there not ten
cleansed? But where are the nine?
There
were ten people who were cleansed from leprosy, but there was only
one who came back to give thanks and worship God.
Sin
of leprosy = cannot give thanks, cannot worship God, always
grumbling.
Sin of leprosy is triggered by the false
prophet (it
is white but it is leprosy = deceitful). The
consequence is there is no more God's image in human, but the
image of false prophet.
-
Indignant sin/ angry sin.
Matthew
26:8 26:8 But when His disciples saw it,
they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?
-
Getting angry without a cause:
getting angry to the people who do good
(because there is jealousy, envy), getting angry to the people used
by God.
-
Getting angry without love:
getting angry to the people who do mistake,
but with explosive emotion (without limit), until hating.
It
is allowed to get angry to the people who do mistake, in order to
help them, but it should not be without love.
The consequence is arising fight and dispute.
This life cannot worship God (his
prayer cannot reach God's presence), he is being spiritually
withered.
I Timothy
2:8 2:8 I desire therefore that the men pray
everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and
doubting;
Hatred/ murder is
triggered by Satan (the father of murderer). The
consequence is there is no more God's image in human, but the
image of Satan.
-
Lying sin.
Matthew
26:9-11 26:9 For this fragrant oil might have been
sold for much and given to the poor." 26:10
But when Jesus was aware of it, He said
to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good
work for Me. 26:11 For
you have the poor with you always, but Me you do not have
always.
John
12:4-6 12:4 But one of His disciples, Judas
Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray Him, said,
12:5 "Why was this
fragrant oil not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the
poor?" 12:6 This he
said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief,
and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it.
Be
watchful! Many social foundations are seemingly giving the others,
but actually many lies and steals inside.
Giving
is a ceremony, not social activity. If
it is a ceremony, there will be fear of Lord. If it is only social
activity, there will be lies and steals inside.
Lie
= saying not right things.
Lie
is triggered by Satan (the father of liar). The
consequence is there is no more God's image in human, but the
image of Satan.
-
Steal sin.
The
stolen things are especially God's owns, that are tithes and
special offerings.
The bond of
money/ mammon is the strength of antichrist. The
consequence is there is no more God's image in human, but the
image of antichrist.
Judas
Iscariot is the example of clay pot life who was filled with four
sins above, such that he lost the image of God the Trinity and was
replaced with the image of Satan the trinity.
Judas,
who is a disciple and
treasurer (a trusted people), but he
still could be filled with four sins and
had the image of Satan the trinity, WHO
ARE WE?
Be
careful! Let us not have a lot of
service, but there is only the image of Satan. Do
not be proud of something! Let us always
be corrected by the Word.
Do
not be fooled! The other disciples,
until the last communion, still thought that Judas was used by God.
These days, we
must be watchful and pray a lot!
Acts
1:16-18 1:16 "Men and brethren, this
Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by
the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who
arrested Jesus; 1:17 for
he was numbered with us and obtained a
part in this ministry." 1:18 (Now
this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling
headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed
out.
Judas
kept the four sins (had the image of Satan the trinity), therefore:
-
Judas was not shepherded.
Judas
was in the shepherding pen, but his
heart cannot accept or cannot obey the shepherding Word.
Judas
was only smuggling in the shepherding. In fact,
Judas even took sides on the chief priests and the elders of the
Jews.
-
Judas was not faithful in the ministry, only
to get the carnal things.
Whatever
the reasons that make us cannot be faithful in the ministry,
although those are great reasons in human point of view, but those
are priced as the grave (useless things). The
wage of Judas' evil was only become a field for grave.
If
there are obstacles, we must really ask for an opening way from God.
God sees our yearning heart, and God
has the power to destroy all the obstacles.
Remember!
God punished Egypt to struggle for the ministry
of Israelites.
Not
being shepherded + not being faithful = only going to the grave,
everything is useless.
The
consequence is Judas hung himself,
he burst open in the middle, and all his entrails gushed out, it
means as follows:
-
Being desperate and disappointed.
-
Having uncertain life.
Whatever
we proud of, which prevents us to be shepherded and faithful in the
ministry, will hang our life. Remember
Absalom with all his greatness (great hair), but he was not
obedient, and the end of his life was being hung by his hair.
-
Total failure.
-
Bad odor.
-
Being perished forever.
Judas'
life is as a clay pot which is broken into pieces, having no use
anymore, and being perished forever.
Remember!
The example of broken life is Judas. He is not
ordinary person, but he is a disciple and a treasurer.
But
in the other hand, no matter how broken our life is, this morning
there is still a way out from God.
Isaiah
30:13-15 30:13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to
you Like a breach ready to fall, A bulge in a high wall, Whose
breaking comes suddenly, in an instant. 30:14
And He shall break it like the breaking of the potter's
vessel, Which is broken in pieces; He shall not spare. So there shall
not be found among its fragments A shard to take fire from the
hearth, Or to take water from the cistern." 30:15
For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: "
In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and
confidence shall be your strength." But you would not,
Be
watchful! Physical and spiritual ruin can happen in a blink of eye.
Also, perfection will be fulfilled in a
blink of eye, and we will be changed as perfect as Jesus.
The
way out is Jesus has been
willing to be hung on the cross. He died to redeem and set us free
from sins and curse of sins. Jesus
has been willing to be hung such that we do not hang ourselves.
Our
attitude is honoring the sacrifice of Christ.
-
Being in SILENCE.
It
means correcting ourselves through the
strength of the teaching Word which is
sharper than any double-edged sword, and piercing until the depth of
our heart and mind.
It also means
correcting ourselves through fasting
prayer. We must correct ourselves
many times, do not correct the others instead. Judging
the others = throwing down the broken clay pot. The result is it
will be just more broken.
If we
find sin, we must confess it solemnly to God and to the others. If
we are forgiven, we should no longer do that sin. It is equal to
repentance.
If we do not find any
sins, we must be in silence and should not defend ourselves.
Sprinkling of the blood = sorrow with
Jesus without any sins.
-
Being in PEACE.
It
means controlling ourselves through the
fasting prayer.
Flesh always
flares up with all its desire, emotion, and ambition. Human flesh
also likes hoping to the others. All the flesh must be blocked.
Controlling ourselves means as
follows:
-
Not being desperate or disappointed.
-
Not being proud of something.
-
Not hoping to the others, but only hoping to
God.
-
Not blaming the others.
-
Not being doubtful or worried, but only
believing and fully surrendering to God.
In peacefulness, we can pray and worship God
(I Peter 4:7).
Repentance
and silence = stretching out our hands to God. Thus,
God will also stretch out His hands to us.
Although
the clay pot has been broken in pieces, we are still within the hands
of the Potter.
The results
are as follows:
-
Romans 9:22-23
9:22
What if God, wanting to show His
wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering
the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, 9:23
and that He might make known the riches of His glory
on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for
glory, God
recreates us again as the vessels of mercy;
-
Life who is used in the revival of Holy Spirit
in the last rain.
We glorify God, not
grieving God's heart.
-
Life who is cared by God miraculously, although
in the middle of difficulties.
The
condition of the world at the end of ages is as the condition of
five loaves and two fish facing 5000 people. If
we are used to glorify God, God will care us and we will not lack
of something.
-
Mark 4:38-39
4:38 But He was in the stern,
asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, "Teacher,
do You not care that we are perishing?" 4:39
Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the
sea, "Peace, be still!" And the wind ceased and there was a
great calm.
The
Potter's hands are able to cease the wind and wave. It
means as follows:
-
God solves all our problems.
-
God gives beautiful future.
-
God gives peace and joy.
-
Genesis 1:26
1:26.
Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to
Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over
the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and
over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
The
Potter's hands recreate us again with the image of God the
trinity.
-
Satan the trinity is beaten.
-
We are perfected as glorious as Jesus and ready
to welcome Jesus' second coming.
Whatever our
condition now, whether it is failed or successful, let us always be
within the hands of the Potter!
God
blesses us.
