Title: Jesus Calling Disciples (Us)
Contents
The text is from John 1:35-42
The life of Jesus can be broadly divided into the birth, before the age of 30, and public life (death on the cross). Among them, the public life of Jesus is important. If the beginning of Jesus' public life is based on being baptized in the Jordan River, fasting for 40 days, and resisting the temptations of the devil, Jesus' ministry in public life is based on the selection of the 12 disciples. Most of the disciples Jesus chose were fishermen except for Matthew and Judas Iscariot, who were officers at the customs office (Mark 1:16). In this way, Jesus' disciples were not wealthy or intellectual. They were just ordinary people living a simple and simple life. However, when they were called by Jesus and were caught by the Holy Spirit, they became people who were used in great and honorable ways.
Why did Jesus call his disciples? If we look for the basis in the Bible and the Gospels (Matthew 10:1-7, 4:19, Mark 3:14, 1:16-20, Luke 5:10-11, 6:12), the common denominator is the ability to evangelize. , the ability to do blessed work. For this, Jesus prayed, and the disciples even gave up their jobs. We who believe in Jesus are also disciples of Jesus. In Matthew 28:19-20, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you.” John 14:12 “He who believes in me, I The works he does will he will do, and greater works he will do...” Acts 1:8 “You will be my witnesses when the Holy Spirit comes on you” If you are baptized with the Holy Spirit, you are a witness of Jesus. Therefore, the disciple
First, you must be with Jesus (with your Master). They have the same meaning, the same idea, the same purpose, and must be the same. You must live together. Judas Iscariot thought only of himself, so when Jesus and his disciples went to the Garden of Gethsemane, they secretly departed and went to the priests and scribes, so he eventually became a traitor, a suicide, and a person who left behind a pang of sorrow. Once you become a disciple of Jesus, you are a disciple forever. A disciple must have the faith of Immanuel.
Second, we must tell them that Jesus is our Savior. Matthew 4:19, Mark 1:17 He said, “I will make you fishers of men.” Just as a fisherman catches a fish, Christians must preach the gospel to catch souls. At the last all-night service, I heard the testimony of Deacon Park Se-ho, author of “The World Raised with One Arm.” They say that they have a level 1 disability that requires an interpreter to communicate, but they believe in Jesus and have hope. Determined to live for the glory of God, he worked hard and swept various competitions including two gold medals in the Paralympic Games, becoming the final torch bearer of the Asian Games in Busan 1997. We have heard of the extraordinary passion for evangelism with tracts and evangelism. Evangelism for the salvation of souls is our highest task on earth.
Receive the Holy Spirit to speak repentance, tongues, visions, and prophecies, closed hearts are opened, entanglements are unraveled, the sick and the weak are healed, the blessings of prosperity and prosperity are broken, the chains of curses are broken It starts again with a line of blessing, and I believe that only Jesus will bring about the fate of the world and the blessing of living a better life than the eight. We hope that you will attend and become the main character of the blessing.
