Title: Hebrews 12:1-3
Contents
Thank you for offering this service as a dedication service.
It's the first time I've tried it... I'm so proud of my heart.
I think the first one is really short.
because..
Can we prepare for another start?
Today's greeting is...
I am not alone.
you are not alone. Hallelujah...
Why? Could it be that you are alone?
Today's text tells us about it.
1 For this reason, we have a multitude of witnesses surrounding us like a cloud. 1) Putting off all burdens and the sins that so easily entangle us, and with perseverance we run the race set before us, and if there is a stumbling block,
Hebrews 11: The field of faith.
It also tells us what faith is...
It showed the forefathers of faith who walked the path of faith.
But when I think back to what I said...
It seems to make me think that there were few people of such great faith.
sure..
In God's eyes, it seems that people of faith can see a lot of what is written in the Bible, right?
In fact, it makes me think that it's not enough.
Although it seems small.. Although it is small in the number of people of faith that God and people are looking for, we bless you in the name of the Lord that we will fall into that number.
Faith in the Bible is...
That belief is still alive.
People are invisible.
Everyone has died.
But. It is what the Bible says today that they are still alive.
so...
The most important thing in life of faith is...
1. It is the eyes of faith that can see that I am not alone and that I am not alone.
When I think I'm alone... There's also loneliness...
It always feels like falling apart.
Because giving up is easy.
But what we can't give up is... If we look through the eyes of faith... we see that there are many witnesses of faith. Hallelujah.
The next thing to think about is...
It is a race that is not lonely.
2. Together... let's race.
Because there are already people of faith around you. .If there's anything we need to do...
It's about racing with patience.
God is with you, but...
Witnesses are your strength.
2 Let us look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
3. Looking at Jesus. .I want to be able to run a race to gain strength.
Jesus...
You are the master of faith, but...
You are also the master of perfection, but...
He was not afraid to take up the cross.
Then... he sat at the right hand of God... and revealed God's power.
hardship...
I'm not afraid.. I want to be able to say
Jesus too...
Jesus also suffered. I want to be able to do it.
A race with Jesus... not suffering. It will be a happy thing.
Jesus too...
3 Think of him who endured this rebellion of sinners, lest you grow weary and grow weary.
Jesus didn't just suffer... for the sake of faith.
He was betrayed by people too.
We see Jesus betrayed...
I want to be comforted.
4. Still, I am a happy person.
The race of faith is hard work.
But.
If you look at the way of Jesus...
Jesus is a person with incomparable difficulties... a history of betrayal.
That's why...
I know that I was happier than Jesus.
therefore. The race will not be difficult.
Hallelujah..
