(Acts 1:6-8)
40-50 people who participated in the dedication ceremony of Myungsung Church asked what kind of person they were. Among them, people like us who ran from a distance just for the dedication ceremony, people who went to church without believing and reported everything that happened in the church, communist party members who received the information and came to watch and lead, people who pray with tears for the evangelization of the region, gifts There were people who knew that there was going to be a party and a feast, and that was why. Please think about it today. What did I come to this church for? (...)
Some come to church hoping for a miracle.(...) But without faith, you cannot experience miracles. Some come out to gain special knowledge. But knowledge can only be acquired by the humble.(...) Some want new things.(...) But only those who confess, “I am a sinner before Jesus Christ” have new things.(...) Some It comes to church to be loved. But they want to be loved, not love. Love is disappearing in the church.(...) Some people come to church to be recognized as ‘I’. But the truth of the Bible begins with self-denial (...). What does it mean to ‘believe well’? All you have to do is come out of the church, love the church, and love the members.
Then, what does the church do?(...) The church is a place where people who have been saved by the grace of Jesus learn how to live. In today's text, when the disciples were asked what they should do when they received the power of resurrection (life), the Lord answered that they should pray and be filled with the Holy Spirit and preach that life to the ends of the earth. God made Shinchon Church gracious and healthy. Next year will be the 50th anniversary. “Lord, what can we do with this great grace?” The Lord says “My people, Shinchon Church, dream of the Holy Spirit in prayer and evangelism. Let this be the September song sung by the members of the Sinchon Church.”(...)
Prayer makes us well. The Holy Spirit gives us strength. Evangelism makes us valuable. Prayer, the Holy Spirit, evangelism... Let's make it the song of September. Amen.
