General Service in Malang, May 21, 2017 (Sunday Morning)
Grace
and peace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation
6 in the Tabernacle refers to the staff of Aaron that had budded,
flowered, and borne fruit. No matter how great a man is, he is just
as a fragile, small, and useless staff, but God is able to help, so
we can bud, flower, and bear fruit.
Revelation
6 is about the opening of the first to sixth seal.
Revelation
8 is about the opening of the seventh seal.
The
seven seals equal to the seven judgments of Holy Spirit God to the
world.
Actually,
there are three times seven judgments to the world as follows.
- Revelation
6 - Revelation 8:1-5 is about the seven judgments of seal of Holy
Spirit God.
- Revelation
8:6 - Revelation 11:19 is about the seven judgments of trumpet of
the Son of God.
- Revelation
16:1-21 is about the seven judgments of plague of Father God.
Twenty-one
judgments by God the Trinity will peak on the doomsday when Jesus
comes a second time. It will end with the judgment of the everlasting
fire in the hell.
Our
attitude is making effort to be set free from the judgments of God.
There
are three ways to set us free from God's judgment to the world as
follows.
- Repentance,
meaning stopping sinning to return to God.
Romans
2:4-5
2:4
Or
do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and
longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to
repentance?
2:5
But
in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are
treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation
of the righteous judgment of God,
God
gives us the medium to repent as follows.
- The
goodness of God, so we can have the body, soul, and spirit. Man can
repent and must repent.
- The
forbearance of God, namely He has not come for the second time yet
and He still gives us long life. If God still gives us time, He
gives us chance to repent.
- The
longsuffering of God, namely all kind of sins can be forgiven by
Him.
All
of us can repent, the rest is that whether we want to or not.
The
process of repentance is that we must hear the teaching Word that is
sharper than any two-edged sword to point our sins. We can realize
and regret our sin, as well as confess it to God and the others. If
we are forgiven, we must not repeat it again.
Revelation
21:8
21:8
But
the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral,
sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the
lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second
death."
We
must repent starting from the eight sins that bring us directly to
God's judgments up to the everlasting hell.
- Being
coward, meaning being afraid of something until opposing God and
His Word.
- Being
unbelieving.
- Being
abominable.
- Murderer,
hatred.
- Being
sexually immoral.
- Sorcerer.
- Idolater.
Idol is everything that prevents us to serve God.
- Liar.
Lie is the finale of sins. If there is lie, it means that there are
the other seven sins.
Jeremiah
9:5
9:5
Everyone
will deceive his neighbor,
And
will not speak the truth;
They
have taught their tongue to speak lies;
They
weary themselves to commit iniquity.
One
will be lazy to repent until not be able to repent. His heart will
be as hard as stone.
Romans
2:5
2:5
But
in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are
treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation
of the righteous judgment of God,
Being
unwilling to repent equals to treasuring up the wrath of God until
being drowned into the lake of burning sulfur.
Let us use
the time that God gives to us especially to repent, so we are set
free from sins and the wrath of God. Without repentance, all great
things will be useless and destroyed forever.
- Water
baptism.
Matthew
3:7-9
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,
3:9
and
do not think to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our
father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to
Abraham from these stones.
The
true water baptism equals to fleeing from the wrath to come.
Actually water baptism is only for the Israelites or the physical
descendants of Abraham. However, because a part of Israelites has
hardened their heart, there is spiritual degradation from the
descendant of Abraham to the brood of vipers. It is the part which
can be filled by the Gentiles. The Gentiles as the hard stones can
be lifted up as the descendants of Abraham through the true water
baptism.
The process is one who has died to sins must be
buried in water together with Jesus, to be raised with Him and
receive new life, that is the Heavenly life.
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,
New
life means that we experience the renewal of a hard, evil, and
unclean conscience to the good and obedient one. We can be obedient
until the flesh does not sound anymore.
1
Peter 1:22
1:22
Since
you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit
in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a
pure heart,
We
are sanctified, so we can love the others as loving ourselves. We
say good and right words to the others. We do good and right deeds
to them, as well as think good and right about them. It is until we
can love the one who hates us and we can repay evil with goodness.
Ephesians
4:11-12
4:11
And
He Himself gave some to
be
apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and
teachers,
4:12
for
the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the
edifying of the body of Christ,
If
we obey God, live in holiness, and love one another, we will be
equipped with the ministry and gifts of Holy Spirit. We will be used
in the ministry of building the perfect body of Christ, starting
from within marriage, shepherding, and inter-shepherding.
1
Peter 2:5
2:5
you
also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy
priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God
through Jesus Christ.
We
are used as the living stones in the building of the body of Christ.
The living stone means that we live from great grace of God, so we
can live wherever, whenever, under any situation and condition, up
to the eternal life.
The living stone equals to the beautiful
stone. It means that the great graceful hands of God make our life
beautiful and successful.
God never fools us. The guarantee is
the cross of Christ. He is willing to die on the cross. Jesus who is
beautiful and glorious is willing to be disfigured on the cross, to
make our bad life successful and beautiful.
- Surviving
in waiting and welcoming Jesus' second coming on the glorious
clouds.
Revelation
6:16-17
6:16
and
said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the
face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
6:17
For
the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?"
Be
watchful, do not be left on His second coming.
Malachi
3:1-3
3:1
"Behold,
I send My messenger,
And
he will prepare the way before Me.
And
the Lord, whom you seek,
Will
suddenly come to His temple,
Even
the Messenger of the covenant,
In
whom you delight.
Behold,
He is coming,"
Says
the Lord of hosts.
3:2
"But
who can endure the day of His coming?
And
who can stand when He appears?
For
He is
like a refiner's fire
And
like launderers' soap.
3:3
He
will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver;
He
will purify the sons of Levi,
And
purge them as gold and silver,
That
they may offer to the Lord
An
offering in righteousness.
How
can we survive?
All of us as the priests and kings must be
sanctified by two things as follows.
- The
launderers' soap, namely the teaching Word that is repeated and
sharper than any two-edged sword. It equals to the shepherding
Word.
The shepherding Word feeds the congregation to strengthen
and sanctify us.
The shepherding Word is repeated to clean the
stains in the tunic of ministry.
Jude
1:11-12
1:11
Woe
to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily
in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of
Korah.
1:12
These
are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without
fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water,
carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice
dead, pulled up by the roots;
The
stain of Cain is envy and hatred without any reasons. It must be
sanctified, so we can love one another, even love the one who hates
us.
The stain of Balaam is serving God with the aim to get
physical salary or as profession. It must be sanctified so we can
serve with sacrifice, giving our time, energy, money, et
cetera,
for God.
The stain of Korah is being disobedient or godless. It
must be sanctified, so we can be obedient until the flesh does not
sound anymore.
Ephesians
5:26-27
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.
Jesus
sanctifies us with the launderers' soap until we become as
perfect as Him. The tunic of ministry becomes the bright and clean
fine linen to welcome His second coming.
- The
refiner's fire.
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.
It
is the fiery trial or physical and spiritual suffering because of
Jesus. Thus, the Spirit of glory will be poured in our life.
The
Spirit of glory makes us joyful in the midst of sufferings. The
Spirit of glory renews us from the fleshly man who is despicable to
the spiritual one who is glorious, to be worthy to enter the New
Jerusalem.
The living stone is needed to be purified until
we become the precious one in the New Jerusalem.
Revelation
21:11
21:11
having
the glory of God. Her light was
like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.
The
jasper stone means that we are faithful and fervent in spirit in
ministering God. We are faithful, believe and fully surrender our
life to Him.
1
Samuel 30:6
30:6
Now
David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him,
because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his
sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord
his God.
David
can survive in distress and strengthen himself in God. Thus, he is
helped by God.
1
Kings 17:11-15
17:11
And
as she was going to get it,
he called to her and said, "Please bring me a morsel of bread in
your hand."
17:12
So
she said, "As the Lord your God lives, I do not have bread, only
a handful of flour in a bin, and a little oil in a jar; and see, I
am
gathering a couple of sticks that I may go in and prepare it for
myself and my son, that we may eat it, and die."
17:13
And
Elijah said to her, "Do not fear; go and
do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first, and
bring it
to me; and afterward make some
for yourself and your son.
17:14
For
thus says the Lord God of Israel: 'The bin of flour shall not be
used up, nor shall the jar of oil run dry, until the day the Lord
sends rain on the earth.'"
17:15
So
she went away and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and
he and her household ate for many
days.
The
widow of Zarephath faces financial crisis (the antichrist who will
rule the world). However, she must experience the test of faith to
be able to give God's request. She keeps being faithful and
believing God. Thus, He cares her in the midst of difficulties up
to the days of antichrist.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
face the false worship and unsuccessful future (they will be put in
the furnace). However, they keep being faithful and believing God.
Thus, He is able to care, protect, solve our problems, until give
us the beautiful and successful future.
God
blesses us.
