God who made the family
(Genesis 2:18-24)
This text is the story of how God created Adam and Eve and created circumstances.
God has given us a home.
But today, there are many houses, but happy families are gradually disappearing.
The higher the educational level, the higher the cultural level,
I live without things like a washing machine, a piano, a refrigerator, etc.
Happiness, love, understanding, forgiveness, and joy in that family are drying up more and more.
state.
When assumptions are wrong, people are wrong.
Because the family is the foundation of any community.
If you look at today's text, God made all things under the heavens and at the end
He made one man and one woman, and the two joined to become one flesh.
You made a home.
That's why some theologians say that "the family is the second creation."
After the sun, the moon, the stars, and the mountains and heavens and plants were made, everything was in the sight of God.
It was good, but it wasn't pretty for Adam to be alone.
So he said, “I will make a helper for you.” He put Adam into a deep sleep and rib
He took one and made Eve, so that the two became one flesh,
you made it
Then it was very good in the sight of God.
The family is the most precious, valuable, and blessed
It is beautiful.
There is nothing as blessed and precious as a man and a woman meeting and forming a family. Let's talk about why God created a family for us.
1. He created a family to pour out blessings.
In Genesis 1:28-29
“God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful and multiply
Fill the earth, subdue it,
Have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves on the earth.
All the seed-bearing vegetables and seed-bearing fruits of the ashes all over the earth, said God.
I give you every tree that produces it, and it will be your food.”
God created man and does not stand still.
make air for us to breathe, give us sunlight,
He continues to work non-stop, such as supplying water.
give it Just as parents give generously for their children,
God also gives us many blessings to give us happiness for us.
You pour it out to overflowing.
We fear God, who gives everything for us.
have to live
Then God will bless more of our families.
Psalm 128:1-4
[Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD and walks in his way.
Yes, you will eat the work of your hands, and you will be happy and prosperous. Your wife in the house of your house will be like a fruitful vine, and your children will be like young olive trees around your table. So blessed will be those who fear the Lord.
You said.
The family is the first society God organized, and the first
where it is. God created the family, He gave us health,
To give joy, to prosper, and to love each other.
Can you love yourself?
Love is sharing and giving.
When there is someone who can share and feel all that God has given, human beings
It's happy, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun.
God also said, “Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth.”
You said.
Psalm 127:3-5
“Children are an inheritance from the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is his reward. The children of young men are like arrows in the hand of a merchant. Blessed is the man full of tradition. They will not be put to shame when they speak with their enemies in the gates.”
There are many gifts that God has given us,
The most precious gift is your children. Children are easier than the world
Life. That is why the family is blessed with the various graces that God gives and
It is a bowl of blessing.
May God bless you with a strong and strong family.
I hope you receive it abundantly.
2. He established a church to restore broken families.
God made the family as a vessel of blessing,
Sadly, the vessel of Adam and Eve's home was broken and broken.
They were driven out of the Garden of Eden by breaking God's command and eating the forbidden fruit. A man could not eat unless he sweated.
The woman had to go through the pain of childbirth.
Cain and Abel were born with such hard work, and Cain stoned his younger brother Abel.
Killed it.
All homes were destroyed.
Why did the family that was built to give so many blessings break up like this?
In a nutshell, you break God's ordinances and laws and live as God tells you.
because it didn't.
Every family in this world has problems.
It is because they have strayed from the word of the Lord.
In Ephesians 5:25, 28
"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her... In the same way, husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself."
You said.
And in Ephesians 5:22-24
“Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord, for the husband is the head of his wife, just as Christ is the head of the church.
Saviour, but wives in everything as the church
submit to her husband."
Also in Ephesians 6:1-3
He said, "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father and mother. This is the first commandment with a promise, that it may go well with you, and that you may live long on the earth."
In verse 4
“And fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but in the training and admonition of the Lord.
Nurture,” he said.
However, because they did not obey the word, problems came to the family.
Husbands do not love their wives as their own bodies, children do not be filial to their parents, and parents do not raise their children according to the word of the Lord.
As a result, the family became sick and broken, and happiness was lost.
But God is not just looking at this lost family.
You didn't.
To save broken families, God sent Jesus.
God has established a church to restore blessings to broken families.
will be
Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead three days later and ascended into heaven
The church began with the coming of the Holy Spirit.
So God made the assumption that the church is the church, and this church is the church of Jesus.
It becomes a body.
The church is a spiritual home where God's people gather.
The church is the house of God.
So God is our Father and we are brothers and sisters.
is going to be
When we come to Jesus, all our sins of the past are forgiven and we become a community of love, faith, hope, gratitude, and joy. All of us who have God as our Father in the church are brothers and sisters.
I hope you find happiness again in the church, the spiritual family.
3. Because the home and church are the model of heaven.
We must create heaven through our homes and churches.
Of course, it is not a perfect paradise.
The perfect heaven is when Jesus returns and goes to our hometown.
There is no sorrow, no boy and girl, no poverty,
There's no such thing as contempt. Forever there is only love and only happiness.
Until we all go to the kingdom of God, the churches and families on this earth must become the kingdom of heaven.
You must believe in Jesus and be saved to establish the home kingdom and the church kingdom.
Although it is not a perfect heaven, we must pray, read and sing the Word every day, and live with love and faith in order to achieve the home kingdom and the church kingdom.
May all of your families be like heaven.
So I hope you live in happiness and joy. The church is like heaven,
We must become one grain of wheat so that our home is like heaven.
First of all, I hope that you will be the ones who speak warm words, love first, yield first, take care of yourself first, and give love first.
Don't be discouraged if you don't have parents or if you don't have a husband and wife. When we are in God, God is our Father.
And to those who do not have a husband, Jesus is the husband,
He becomes a wife to those who do not have a wife.
Walk with us, sustain us, give us courage,
Give me strength and give me victory.
No matter how difficult or difficult it is, God is
I hope that you will receive strength and live your life as a father and husband.
Heaven on earth full of faith, hope and love,
I hope you will make the church heaven.
God created a family to bless us
Caring for and loving one another, obeying and filial piety,
We wish you a happy family. Amen
