Title: Wake Up, Young Man
Contents
Rise up, young man (Luke 7:11-16)
2008.6.29 Central Busan Presbytery Youth Union Sunday Afternoon Devotion Service/Busan Segwang Church
Nain (Joy), now Nein, is a small town in Galilee.
When the widow's only son died and went to the burial ground, the Lord met them on the way, set up a bonus, and raised the young man from the dead.
First, biblically speaking, the widow is something to be comforted.
James 1:27 “Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world” (Exodus 22:22).
In addition...
1 Timothy 5:3 'Respect widows who are true widows' (1 Tim. 5:9 'age 60 and older')
It is presumed that the widow in the text was from a noble or wealthy family.
12 '...Many of the city came out with him.' And Israel usually just puts the body in stone tombs.
14 If you look at the words, 'He touched the coffin...', he seems to be a wealthy man. And ..Jesus said, "Young man, I say to you, get up.' Wake up, young man! We would like to get an inspirational message on this topic.
1. Stop the progression of the dead life, you must rise
There are three scenes where the Lord raised the dead from the dead.
① Once (Mark 5:) there was a daughter of Jairus, the ruler of the synagogue, who died soon.
② With a young man on the way to the main store
③And (John 11:) There is the history of the rebirth of Lazarus, who died four days ago.
The painting shown in the emergence of the dead widow
① the dead young man, ② his mother’s widow, and ③ the people carrying the bonus
④ And in verse 12, many people were walking together.
Life is said to be spiritually dead until you meet the Lord Jesus.
Ephesians 2:1-2 “He raised you, who were dead in your trespasses and sins, when you walked in him, following the customs of this world, and following the prince of the power of the air, the Spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience.” (The state of being dead in the spirit is no different from a dead young man who, neither his parents nor his neighbors, could help but mourn and sympathize with him and walk with burial.
◈ Kiehlkegol "Sickness unto death" => Illness = no hope
The Lord who met the young man came to the field of the global village where there is no real hope of life and met us with the Gospel. I bless you and me who thank you for this wonderful grace.
14'When he came near, he touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. Jesus said to him, "Young man, I say to you, get up!!! do it'
If your spiritual ears are not opened, no matter how much you explain and even show miracles, if the inspiration is dark, you will not be able to hear and awaken. However, even the dead can hear the voice of the Lord if they want to hear it.
The dead Lazarus John 11:43 '... He called Lazarus to come out.' When the dead Lazarus heard the sound, he came out.
Although our physical ears are the channels through which we receive information, in the end, the ears that hear with the spirit hear the dead, and the dead do not hear the voice of the Lord as the voice of the Lord, even though they are alive.
◈ When a professor who was fervent about 3,000 times and was zealous for Buddhism happened to attend church and listened to a sermon, and the disciples walking on the sea were surprised, don't be afraid...
....I came to believe, and after I wrote the testimony, the title of the book…, Nada! <put out>
◈ In the early days of faith, one morning, I was having a hard time sleeping. "Jongsu~"
When the Lord comes again, I believe that everyone will hear the voice of the Lord calling on his name, even while working or sleeping!!
Ephesians 5:14 “Therefore he says, Awake, you who sleep, and rise from the dead, for Christ will give you light.”
2. You must speak
15 'The dead man sat up and talked, and Jesus gave him to his mother.' The young man obeyed the Lord's command and sat up from the coffin. What did he mean? With joy and gratitude, we can guess that it was a miraculous experience, a new understanding of life, an understanding of a new history, and a joyful voice full of hope.
is.
♣ Imagine waking up, but sitting in a coffin, not saying a word, and twitching your eyes. How much more terrifying. If you don't want to talk, it would be better to lie down. We believe that we are young people and saints who speak the words that came to life after meeting the Lord of life, the words that came to life, and the words that can live!!.
True and precious experiences will be confessed by yourself.
John 4, when the Samaritan woman went to the village to evangelize... Come and see!
Philip also come!~ (John 1:46)
◈ When I was a new believer, when I was drying up the local rites, God punishes me for idols. Die!! That year, there were about 10 portraits in the neighborhood. A truly terrible punishment has come.
What do the saints of eternal life who have found our new life say and live?
Do you still not lament with the words of the world and say only the impossible?
3. Became a young man who glorifies God
16 'Everyone feared and gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet has risen among us, and that God has looked after his people.' The ultimate goal of Christianity is to glorify God.
inside the church
① There are people who want to live their lives well with the help of Jesus.
②There are those who give their lives to Jesus.
When you are called to be a Christian
Matthew 5:16 “In the same way, let your light shine before men, so that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
You can dedicate yourself to the Lord even when you are old.
But, again, you have to do a lot of work for God when you are a strong young man.
Jesus began his mission as the Messiah at the age of 30, and John the Baptist was active when he was about 30 years old, and he acted gloriously as the 30th king of Jeremiah, Zechariah, 30th, David, and Solomon, Confucius 30th, Buddha 29 At the age of 27, John Calvin wrote a book called Protestant Theology-Based Christian Implications.
Even now, countless souls in the global village are going to the burial ground of hell. On the road of death, young man! The Lord who said that, is calling us to the gospel of truth like the voice he spoke to the youth toward our souls in our time today. Get up, speak, and glorify us in a world without hope!!
our saints,
In today's text, like a young man who rose from the seat of death in obedience to the command of the Lord, by obeying the word of truth, he rose from the seat of failure and the seat of sorrow, so that we and all of you can speak vital words and give glory to the Lord God. I bless you by name.
