Youth Service in Malang, March 15, 2014 (Saturday Evening)
Peace and
grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Overall, Luke 6
refers to righteousness, the Court of Tabernacle.
In the
beginning, God creates perfect man as glorious as Him, according to
His image. God puts him in Eden and he lives in happiness.
But
human falls into sin, so he loses God's image, glory, holiness, and
righteousness.
Consequently, they are cast out to the world, to
live in curse and perish.
God is not willing if human
perishes. So, He makes efforts to return human to His image, namely
righteousness, holiness and glory.
God's effort to return us
to His image is called God's
upbringing.
There
are seven kinds of God's upbringing as follows:
- Luke
6:1-5 is about the body is brought up by God
to enter in spiritual activity.
- Luke
6:12-16 is about the soul is brought up by
God that we have spiritual position
in the Kingdom of Heaven.
- Luke
6:17-19 is about the spirit is brought up
by God that our spiritual is not sick
but healthy until perfect.
- Luke
6:6-11 is about the deed is brought up by
God.
- Luke
6:20-26 is about the mind is brought up by
God.
- Luke
6:27-45 is about the heart is brought up by
God.
- Luke
6:46-49 is about life journey is brought up
by God.
Ad. 5. the
mind is brought up by God
Luke
6:20-23
6:20. Then
He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said: "Blessed
are you poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
6:21. Blessed are you who hunger
now, For you shall be filled. Blessed are you who weep
now, For you shall laugh.
6:22. Blessed are you when men hate
you, And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your
name as evil, For the Son of Man's sake.
6:23. Rejoice in that
day and leap for joy! For indeed your reward is great in heaven, For
in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.
If
we have the mind of the cross, we will receive the things as
follows:
- happiness of Heaven that cannot be
influenced by anything in this world (we can be happy even we are
poor and hungry),
- four characteristics of Jesus.
We discuss about the
second point.
Four
characteristics
of Jesus are as follows:
- 'Blessed
are you poor'.
Luke
6:20
6:20. Then He lifted up His eyes
toward His disciples, and said: "Blessed
are you poor, For yours is the
kingdom of God.
It refers to the
character of Jesus as the King.
2
Corinthians 8:9
8:9.
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was
rich, yet for your sakes He became
poor, that you through His poverty
might become rich.
God
is rich, but He is willing to give everything to us so we who are
poor can become rich.
2 Corinthians
8:1-2
8:1. Moreover, brethren, we make
known to you the grace of God bestowed on the churches of
Macedonia:
8:2. that in a great trial of affliction the abundance
of their joy and their deep poverty abounded
in the riches of their liberality.
The
measurement of being rich is we like to give. It starts from
returning tithes and special offering that belong to God and giving
alms to others who are in need.
2
Corinthians 9:7
9:7. So let each one
give as he purposes in his heart,
not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
The
term of giving is one gives as he
purposes in his heart cheerfully, not of necessity or being forced,
but giving in gratitude until he can say that it is more blessed to
give than to receive.
Acts
20:35
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.'"
2
Corinthians 9:8
9:8. And God is able
to make all grace abound toward you,
that you, always having all sufficiency
in all things, may have an abundance
for every good work.
The
results are as follows:
- We
experience the grace of God that is able to make us sufficient in
all things.
- We have
an abundance for every good work.
It means that we receive the
bright fine linen or the cloth of the bride of Heaven who is ready
to greet when Jesus comes a second time.
Revelation
19:8
19:8. And to her it was granted
to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the
fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
- 'Blessed
are you who hunger'.
Luke
6:21a
6:21a.
Blessed are you who hunger
now, For you shall be filled.
It
refers to the character of Jesus as the
servant.
A servant does God's will.
Jesus
fasts and feels hungry to do God's will or become the servant of
God.
We have to serve God with hunger and want to eat.
Eating
becomes obligation and necessity.
The signs are as follows:
- We never
get bored to worship and serve God.
- We do not
need to be forced or reminded to worship and serve God.
Do not feel
bored and forced means that we serve
faithfully and correctly, namely we
serve by using the belt.
Isaiah
11:5
11:5. Righteousness shall be the
belt of His loins, And faithfulness the
belt of His waist.
Luke
17:8
17:8. "But will he not
rather say to him, 'Prepare something for my supper, and gird
yourself and serve me till I have
eaten and drunk, and afterward you
will eat and drink'?
If
we serve faithfully and correctly, we give Jesus food and drink
which means we satisfy God.
The
result is we will be satisfied too by satisfaction of Heaven and we
will never fall into the world satisfaction which culminates in sin
of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage.
Our
business is serving God faithfully and correctly.
Our
food-drink and life-death are God's business.
- 'Blessed
are you who weep'.
Luke
6:21b
6:21b.
Blessed are you who weep now,
For you shall laugh.
It refers to the
character of Jesus as the Man.
In
the Bible, Jesus cries a lot. Now, we have to cry ourselves too,
namely crying our sins.
It means we cry to regret and confess our sin to others (horizontal)
and God (vertical), which is the same as the sign of the
cross.
Romans 4:7-8
4:7.
"Blessed are those whose lawless
deeds are forgiven, And whose sins
are covered;
4:8. Blessed is the man to whom the LORD shall not
impute sin."
Be
careful! There are people who do not
want to confess their sin but laugh in sin (it is the same as a
liar).
The consequence is his spirituality becomes dry and he
will cry in the hell forever.
- 'Blessed
are you when men hate you because of Jesus' name'.
Luke
6:22-23
6:22.
Blessed are you when men hate you,
And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your name as
evil, For the Son of Man's sake.
6:23. Rejoice in that day and
leap for joy! For indeed your reward is great in heaven, For in like
manner their fathers did to the prophets.
It
refers to the character of Jesus as the Son
of God.
Jesus is hated and tortured until
He dies on the cross because He confesses Himself as the Son of God.
But, He rises, ascends to the Heaven and is glorified.
THERE
IS GLORY BEHIND THE CROSS.
That
is why we have to suffer with Jesus, that we can receive the Spirit
of glory.
1 Peter 4:14
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.
The
functions of the Spirit of glory are as follows:
- Spiritual
miracle, namely the change of life from
carnal men to glorious ones like Jesus. It starts from being
strong and of good courage.
We are not
disappointed in facing evil speaking but give thank to God. We do
not defend ourselves when we suffer with God.
We keep believing,
hoping and worshipping God against anything.
- Physical
miracle.
God is able to change from
decay to beauty, from failure to success, from impossible thing to
possible one.
John 11:31-32,
39-40
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."
11:39. Jesus said, "Take away the
stone." Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him,
"Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead
four days."
11:40. Jesus said to her, "Did I not say
to you that if you would believe you
would see the glory of God?"
- We are
changed as perfect as God when He comes a
second time, lifted up on the clouds to return to the Paradise, and
enter the kingdom of Heaven. We have happiness of Heaven forever.
God
blesses us.
