can be rejected But no one can deny God's calling. and reject
This is a very special calling that should not be done. This call is more than a royal name in the feudal era.
It is an authoritative command. The Lord (Matthew 10:28) said, “You can kill the body, but you cannot
Do not be afraid of those who cannot, but have those who are able to destroy both body and soul in hell.
Be afraid,” he said.
<Body>
1. Paul did not disobey what God had seen and said (19-23)
Paul preached the gospel for the Gentiles whom God spoke to and appeared to him.
D! did not reject the mission of evangelism and faithfully fulfilled it. thoroughly Jewish
It was Paul from the Pharisees who kept the ordinances and laws. That is why the Gentiles are born
They were treated like beasts, ignorant of the law and sinning like water.
So, naturally, it is the common attitude of the Jews to avoid dealings with the Gentiles.
It was. God gave a radical command to Paul, who was fixed in this way of thinking.
will be Break all those ways of thinking and go to them
Rather, they are called to love, care for, and preach the gospel.
When he received this vocation, Paul decided to change the laws and ordinances he had been obsessed with.
He forsook everything and obeyed with Amen at once. God makes obedience better than sacrifice
you see Rather than worshiping hundreds of times and listening to the Word and performing ceremonies,
It is more pleasing to God to practice and obey God in our lives. That
Therefore, only the ears can grow bigger, and later, even the ear holes are blocked, making it boring to listen at all.
It would be unfortunate indeed if it was reduced to a single consciousness.
Today, God awakens our mission through the servants He has established.
Let's immediately realize what the mission is for me and don't turn away from it. Our mission of evangelism,
A mission of prayer, a mission of service, a mission of comfort, a mission of healing the sick and giving hope
A mission to reach out and give love to the lonely and marginalized, humbly consider others better than myself
There are missions for fellowship, etc.
2. Paul was faithful to his mission by saying, “You are crazy!” (24)
When the governor Festus saw Paul testifying about the resurrection of Jesus Christ, he cried out and said,
'Paul! you are crazy! Your many studies drive you crazy!'
People who are loyal to their mission are sometimes told by unbelievers that they are crazy. even
Even the same believers who still have little faith receive 'Go a little crazy!'
All. However, such accusations are glorious. The Lord said, 'You
Rejoice and rejoice when you swear and speak against others, for your reward is great in heaven!'
you said If you don't hear people say you're crazy and live in moderation
There will be none.
Are you struggling with the position you have been given? Do you also hear a lot? That's what it takes
will be He who is praised by all is a fool who cannot be praised by God.
it is a person
3. Paul's earnest hope was to save even one more soul, his mission (25-
32)
Paul's concern was to win souls to Christ. you
Whether it is a person of high rank or a Gentile who treats animals, anyone who can be saved
It was the job I was most looking forward to.
This is the attitude of the basic mission of our saints that we must have before God.
The Lord has given all of us a calling, like his last will.
(Matthew 28:19-20) "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, fathers and sons
baptize you in the name of the Holy Spirit and teach you to obey all that I have commanded you.
Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the world."
<Conclusion>
That's right. In season or out of season, for the preaching of this gospel and the salvation of souls,
You will have to race. No matter how bad the circumstances, circumstances, or circumstances,
You will also have to do your best in that environment. When good conditions come, this
You may have to leave the world and leave. We will always hold onto this time
You can't put it. It just goes by without a hitch. Therefore wisdom is out of season or out of time.
All we do is do our best to witness the gospel.
