Title: Let's live faithfully (Colossians 03:22-25)
Contents The words of the text read today have already passed away. Albert Schweitzer, who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952 as a Ph.D. in Music, Medicine, Philosophy, and Mathematics, and is called the most respected saint of the jungle in this century, is a favorite Bible verse.
“But do it with sincerity in the fear of the Lord, and whatever you do, do it wholeheartedly, as to the Lord and not to men, for you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord, for you serve the Lord Christ. There is no favoritism in favor of people.”
If everyone lives according to the Word, they will surely receive an inheritance from the Lord. As you know, my pastoral philosophy is threefold. (1) A holy spirit (2) Positive thinking (3) A sincere life. In other words, keep your heart holy, all your thoughts positively, and all your life with integrity. When I preach today on the topic of living faithfully, I hope that God will give you great grace, dear saints.
Once upon a time, a famous Chinese Confucian scholar, Sima Ongong, his disciples said to him, "Teacher, please instruct us to write what we will use as our motto for the rest of our lives."
Among the three classic Chinese classics of librarianship (the Analects, Mencius, Zhongyong, University, Poetry, Seogyeong, and Zhongyong), gender was very important when looking at the middle. John 1:14 says, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, the glory of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." ), which means Jesus. In John 1:1, “In the beginning was the Word”, but the Word here means in other words, “In the beginning was the Way.” The Word, or the Way, is called (Logos), but in the middle, 誠者天之道也, the last name refers to the way of heaven, that is, Jesus.
John 1:13 says, "All things were made through him, and without him nothing was made that was made." In the middle ground, it is called 不誠不物. It means that without sex, nothing is possible. There is nothing that cannot be done by doing your best.
It was called 誠者萬物之始終, and 誠 means the beginning and the end of all things.
In Revelation 1:8, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, saith the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." referred to as the servant of all things.
誠之者人之道也, which means that it is a man's duty to practice sexuality. In other words, it means that the way of Jesus, that is, to do the will of Jesus, is the duty of man.
If we examine the character 誠 again, the character of 誠 (honesty) is also called a surname to believe (trust), a surname to respect (敬), a surname (審), etiquette (禮, truthfulness (眞實), 純無僞. Any letters with a saint are fine.誠心, 誠意, 誠實, 誠敬, 精誠, 至誠, 熱誠, 忠誠, etc.
1. The great achievements of human history are the result of hard work.
The magnificent building Peter's Temple in Rome is said to be one of the eight wonders of the world. Even looking at the ceiling, murals, paintings, and pillars is amazing. The K rn Temple, Germany, built for 632 years, and the Church of the Holy Spirit in the United States, which began to lay the foundation in 1907 and is being built up to now, cannot be completed without doing all.
As a bizarre work of art, the portrait of Jesus in the Vatican Museum seems to be looking at Jesus wherever he looks. It is said that when water is poured on Goryeo porcelain that has a picture of a fish on it, it seems that the fish in love is wriggling. It is said that birds flew in thinking that Solger's pine tree painting was real.
Amazing and sophisticated satellites, rockets, and computers are all the result of hard work.
2. The successful people in history are those who have done their best.
Sex is the spirit of Jesus Christ, and it means doing your best with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.
Jimmy Carter, the son of an American peanut farmer, became president of the United States. When he was in the Navy, an admiral read his test answer sheet and said, "You didn't do your best. Whatever you do, do your best!" You can hear him confessing that he became the president of the United States as a result of hearing what he said, making a decision, and then doing his best in everything.
A student can become an honor student if he or she studies hard. If a business person does their best, business will do well. God helps those who do their best. If you are intelligent, you know the word Gamcheon. If you do your best, you will surely succeed. Let's say you succeeded by luck without doing your best. There will be no joy, no satisfaction, no reward. Let's say you tried your best and failed. It is never a failure. I didn't succeed right now, but because God knows, the Lord is rewarding me in a different way.
Let's be faithful husbands and wives at home. If you do your best at work, you will be loved by your boss. Luke 12:42 says, “Who is the one who will be a wise and faithful steward, and will give his master his servants, and give them food at the proper time, saith the Lord?
If you go to revival clubs in Brazil, Paraguay, and Algintina in South America, you will get a reputation for being untrue to the people of Korea. It is truly deplorable.
There are pronouns for China, Korea, and Japan, respectively. The Chinese are called 'Sinais', which means smugglers. Koreans call it 'pork' - pork, cold soup, and Japanese call it 'garanjido' - a guarantee check.
The French philosopher Gabriel Marcel once said, “The degree of sincerity is the degree of existence.” The more sincere you are, the more you are needed, and the less you are, the less you need. So, whatever you do, you must put your heart into it. He said that even if you work as a waitress, a policeman, a cleaner, or an employee, do it as to the Lord and not to people, then you will receive the reward of your inheritance from the Lord.
Someone went to a famous teacher and asked, "How do I live to be happy?", "If you want to be happy one day, you get a haircut. If you want to work partly, you buy a car. If you want to be happy for a year, get married." If you want to be happy, be sincere."
Fruits that have been carefully nurtured in this season of fruitfulness are mature. You reap what you sow. This guy is talented. It is best to say that you are sincere than that you are knowledgeable or wise. Let's be sincere.
“Whatever you do, do it wholeheartedly, as to the Lord, and not to men, knowing that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord, for you serve the Lord Christ.”
