Title: Preaching Christ (Romans 16:21-27)
Whether we live in the world or lead a life of faith, having co-workers is very important, and it is a great honor for me.
It will become the strength of Rowa.
No matter how difficult and difficult the road is, you will be my co-worker, companion, and reliable love.
If you go on that road with the person you are in, you can go on that road with pleasure, peace of mind, and ease, but it is difficult and lonely.
It is scary to go out on a lucky road alone without anyone else, and you may end up losing your motivation.
So, for us, as a person who becomes a strong force in my life and life, a companion and a partner
What you need is someone to work with.
How much pain, suffering, and tribulation did the Apostle Paul go through during his evangelistic and missionary journeys?
I can't put into words how much this happened.
How hard it must have been since I had passed the threshold of death several times, locked up in prison, and had already run out of energy.
are you?
There is still a lot of work to be done, there is a long way to go, and the body is getting more and more exhausted. At a time like this, how did Paul manage the rest of his mission?
Would you have afforded it?
“(Romans 15:22) Therefore, many times my going to you was blocked.”
Grace through Paul's evangelism work at a time when the road to go is blocked and the surrounding environment is getting difficult.
would like to share
Paul never procrastinated, gave up, or took a different course in his ministry.
Still had a way to go and did what was to be done.
“(Romans 15:25) But now I am going to Jerusalem to serve the saints.”
"(Romans 15:29) I know that when I go out to you, I will carry the full blessings of Christ with me."
"(Romans 15:32) Let me come to you with joy, according to the will of God, that I may rest in peace with you.
do it "
After Paul had finished serving the saints to the end and preaching the full blessings of Christ,
Looking forward to the day when I can rest comfortably with the saints with joy, I am fulfilling the last remaining mission.
I did.
1. There must be a co-worker with the same heart.
Our life, faith, and life co-workers go together with the same heart from the beginning to the end.
have to go
In this way, we can understand each other's circumstances and positions, fill our needs and carry heavy burdens to suit them.
Because it can be shared and shared.
“(Romans 16:2) Receive him in the Lord with the proper manners of the saints, and do anything to him
I will help what is needed, for he has been my protector with many.
la"
(Romans 16:4) They laid down their necks for my life, not only for me, but also for the Gentiles.
All the churches give thanks to them."
The Apostle Paul was so strong and sure of his relationship with his co-workers that he was willing to lay down his neck for his life.
You will know that you trust each other.
Even if we go through life, rough and rough life, we live through years of hardship, tribulation, and adversity.
Even if you have a partner you can trust, rely on, and help with for the rest of your life, the path will be on the contrary.
It's a happy road.
Here is the secret to Paul's ability to go on that difficult and difficult road by telling him to rejoice.
All.
Do we have a co-worker who can be of our faith and spiritual help for the rest of our lives?.
Do you have a companion who can give you comfort and courage by sharing your situation and situation with one another?
Do I share my heart with the comrades of faith who are by my side around me?
Does he come and help me when I am in trouble?
Is he comforted by me when he is having a hard time?
Ura still has a long way to go.
No matter how many things or good things we have in the world, we are in front of spiritual thirst and hunger.
will be difficult to bear.
I hope that we can meet co-workers who share the same heart in our religious life.
2. We must be recognized in Christ.
We are living the best life in the world.
A good job, wealth and glory in the world, and honor and power satisfy me and do me
It will make you happy.
However, if we live for ourselves with all these things, its value or meaning will not be lost.
will be
We must at least be recognized in Christ as Christians.
" (Romans 16:7) ... They were made famous by the apostles, and who were in Christ before
Goto sleep "
(Romans 16:10) Greet Abele, who is approved in Christ.
Say hello"
“(Romans 16:11) … Greet those who are in the Lord”
(Romans 16:13) Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother.
mother"
When all those with us are recognized in the Lord, we
You can serve without any burden and without hesitation.
It is already in Christ that the Apostle Paul confessed that Rufus' mother was his mother.
It means they are living together as a family.
No matter how much we do in the world, if it is not done in the Lord, we
It cannot be recognized within.
If you do not receive recognition in Christ, no matter how far you go, you will be there.
No matter how much work you do, you will stay there.
Therefore, for our recognition in Christ and for the good of the gospel of Christ,
When I am able to pour out a lot of myself, I will enjoy relaxation, satisfaction, and joy.
3. We must preach the gospel and Jesus Christ.
We are called to fulfill our ultimate mission.
It is a mission to spread the gospel and Jesus Christ.
To this day, we have prepared with the Word and prayer and have glorified God through worship and praise.
These are the things that we have to bear on the road to becoming more and more mature in our faith and life.
Therefore, as we grow older in faith and life, we must become more mature, and that
is to live.
It is something that no one can do casually, but it cannot be avoided because it is something that everyone must do.
There is not.
The Apostle Paul gave up his last breath, even one breath, for the sake of the gospel.
Even if it is difficult for us to live like that, we must always do our best with a sense of mission.
All.
“(Romans 16:25) My gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ were hidden from time immemorial.”
" (Romans 16:26) It is now revealed, and by the decrees of the eternal God, in the writings of the prophets
through the revelation of the mystery, which was made known so that all nations might believe and obey
according to you, who is able to fortify you by this gospel."
(Romans 16:27) To the wise God be glory through Jesus Christ for ever and ever.
Poke Amen"
The gospel strengthens us, gives us wisdom and understanding, and gives us strength to fill us with comfort, peace, and courage.
You have.
We were able to come this far today with the gospel and we are fulfilling our hope with the gospel.
is.
Let's enjoy happiness in the gospel and open the way of life to prosperity through the gospel.
Therefore, we must preach the gospel and Jesus Christ.
Let's do our best together with a co-worker like Paul.
Let us be zealous for recognition in Christ.
And let's spread the gospel and Jesus Christ.
If we do this, we will not be ashamed and proud of our good fruit, the fruit of righteousness, and the fruit of life.
will conclude
I wish you a great life, a great life, and a great victory.
