Title: Workers of God./Hebrews 3:1-6

1. The appearance of us giving up, the person who endured to the end
If we look around us, we can see that there are people who give up halfway through what they started, while others endure to the end and achieve what they set out to do.
Some people give up halfway through their studies, some do it because they are obsessed with finishing it, some people give up halfway through exercise, some give up because they say it's too strong, and some people give up because they say it's too hard. There are people who give up halfway because it is difficult to live a religious life while dating, and there are people who endure all such difficulties until the end.
But if you look at most people who quit halfway, you can see that it's because they didn't give meaning to what they were doing. However, it can be seen that those who succeed in their work until the end have a clear goal in their work and have a burning heart that they must achieve it.
After discovering the truth that the earth rotates to the end, Galileo, who had said that the earth rotated until he died, was so clear about that truth that he could tell the truth until he died that is possible.
In addition, despite the fact that Romeo and Juliet were from the family of an unlovable enemy, they eventually reconciled the family of the enemy through endless efforts to achieve love. You can see that they are working hard every day towards what they ask for.
However, it can be seen that many people give up when there is a small difficulty, because they are not confident in what they are doing. People who study give up studying because they find that studying doesn't mean much, and people who give up while exercising also think that they can't become great even if they exercise.
People who do not know God and do not have a clear understanding of the kingdom of heaven even in their religious life can easily give up their faith even if there is a small difficulty. Even if you feel a little sick, even if you get angry a little, even if your parents object, even if you take an exam, or if your grades drop, you can see that you give up your faith.
The Gulliver brothers who wanted to fly invented the airplane, the people who wanted to go to the sea invented the boat, and the people who wanted to go far away discovered the car.
2. Jesus who was faithful as a son while believing in the kingdom of heaven to the end
Today's Word of God records God's words to think deeply about Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who ruled the household of God as the Son of God. If we think deeply about the Lord, we can see that the Lord has known that he is the Son of God all his life, had confidence in the kingdom of heaven, and has been doing God's work with the conviction that God exists.
Our Lord who longed to show the kingdom of heaven on this earth
You can tell that you have completed such a task. God's Word today tells us that when we think deeply about the Lord and live with such faith and heart that we can also enter the kingdom of heaven, He makes us members of God's family.
When I was in high school, I had a friend named Bong-rae, who wasn't that smart, so he always showed intermediate skills when taking final or mid-term exams. Still, the friend sits at his desk almost all the time without a break even during breaks, staring at his books. He was teased by his friends and studied until the end. In the end, he passed the academic test and finished fourth in the class, and eventually the university he wanted could be seen entering the Maybe we also know that God said that when we prepare diligently while hoping for the kingdom of heaven we want to enter, God will make us members of the family of the kingdom of God.
Not studying even though there is a university you want to go to is the same as not doing what you need to do while you want to go to heaven. Today, our Lord has told us that if we have shared goals and hope for the kingdom of heaven, we become members of God's family.
In today's text, God is saying that the Creator of this world is God. There's one thing my nephew always likes to say, "This is my dad's." What can be said that it belongs to my father is that the things in the house are his belongings, so I can use it as I please, but my uncle must not touch it.
Even today our Lord wants us to live by saying that everything in the house of this world belongs to God, so we are also sons of God, saying, ?쏷his is our Father, and this is our Father, God. That is why he wants to manage and love the world as well as the Lord manages it, and to make God's house beautiful so that everyone in this world can know God the Father.
3. We who manage the house of God
I don't know how you are. Do you call God our Father?
And are you calling this world the house God made? Not only that, are we trying to make the whole world, my father's house, beautiful? Our God said through today's Word that when we live as sons of God's family, He makes us members of God's family. When you become a member of God's family, you become a more famous person than you become a member of a famous school or a person whom God recognizes.
4. What you need to do to become a member of the household
Therefore, in order to become members of the household of God, we must be qualified as members of the household of the Lord like the Lord. First, you must have the same heart as the Lord who calls God the Father. For we would not be able to call God our Father without the conviction that God is our Father.
Not only that, but you will also have to form yourself as a son. If the son of God's household had all kinds of filthiness, had no culture, no love, no forgiveness, and no resemblance to the heart of his father, he would not be qualified as a son.
Third, as the Father's son, we must do what Heavenly Father is doing. It means that we have to do the work of Heavenly Father who wants to make a world of love together. If there are difficult people in this world, the house God built, you need to look after those people, if there is a fight, you need to make them into people who are reconciling, if there are people who are troubled, you need to share those worries with them. You will have to get to know the country of
When we do these things, just as God raised our Lord from the cross and led us to the kingdom of heaven, just as he showed us the kingdom of God on this earth, he shows us the invisible kingdom of God through us. will be called as members of God's household.
At that time, we will be able to not only do God's work together with God as the owner of our household, but also to build the kingdom of God on this earth, calling God our Father.
