Hebrews 11:1-6
I believe in coming back in the evening, so I prepare a warm dinner and make my husband fall asleep.
I trust my wife to make good use of it and make good use of it, so I leave the entire salary envelope with her. What if I give it to you and it bounces off, then I can't leave it to you.
You must have faith to go to a restaurant and eat rice. A red broiler farm came out.
When I saw the restaurant owner, it looked scary. Hey, what if that person put poison in here? If you doubt that, you'll be thirsty.
This doctor built a boat to save me instead of killing me How much do you believe in God? How much do you believe in God? Do you trust yourself as a restaurant owner?
What do you entrust to God while leaving the envelope to your wife?
Without faith, our relationship with God is nothing. So, when God judges us, faith is the standard. If I have faith in me, God acknowledges me.
Faith pleases God. So God requires faith from us. From the beginning to the end, there is one thing the Bible constantly demands of us, and it is faith. Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” From here, we are asking for faith. The first step in faith is believing in God. There is not. Trying to understand the work of the infinite God with a small human head is like measuring the Pacific Ocean with a small shell. So God does not ask us if you understand, but asks if you believe or not. There is a mistake that foolish people often make. They put the word of God on the cutting board of their own human reason, tear it apart, erase it and deny it. How stupid are you? Human reason is very limited. It is said that what we know is less than 100 millionth of the knowledge on this planet. It is unreasonable to try to judge and know the infinite God with my little knowledge.
A famous theologian named Harknes mentioned four things that are not faith in his very famous book, “Understanding the Christian Faith.
First, belief is not blind faith. Superstition or blind faith is not belief.
Some people believe that God really lives, not only in their head, but in their heart and in their whole body. I believe so.
However, some people, of course, are church members, so when asked if they believe in the existence of God, they answer, Amen.
In the United States, it is said that the school decides whether there is heaven or not by voting. It's a shame because there were so many, but this isn't something that will be decided by voting. Believe that it exists because God created it. This is faith. Blind faith is not belief. I believe with certainty
Also, faith is not a mystery. There are many mysterious things in faith. He created the heavens and the earth with the word. parted the Red Sea. The dead rise. Mystery. But, folks, don't just like the mystery. Some people have to see something in their dreams to receive grace. This is wrong. You have to see something to believe it. No, faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.
It wasn't the fourth tune, it was. I have been going for a long time. So, I am mistaken as to whether my belief is too much. Because I was in charge of the church, my faith must be great. Your faith is life. So you have to fertilize and water.
do. However, since stones do not have life, no matter how much you fertilize and water them, they will not flower or bear fruit. Don't brag about your seniority. I have to see if my faith is alive now. In today's Word, without faith, it is impossible to please. Faith is what God is most pleased with. Therefore, if you want to receive God's love, you must prepare for faith. In the Gospels, there are always people who praised Jesus wherever he went.
I always praised people with good faith.
Here is a beautiful Western-style house. But when I ask who lives in it, a thief lives. Then what do you say about that house? It's called a thief's house. Here is a little hut. A good teacher lives there. Whose house is that house? Teacher's house. It's not the shell that matters, it's the inside.
Here's a flashing clock. If this is broken inside, the watch has no value. No matter how much we rub our shells, what God sees is the heart, so faith is what God sees in us.
So what is belief? Faith is giving up. To believe in God means to entrust your life to God. In the Bible, there are many sayings to entrust your life. Entrust your life. leave your way Leave your worries, and your events. I want you to leave all your heavy burdens. Live by faith.
When I was in Ganggyeong, I once built a church with the members.
It was very difficult at that time. One time I prayed to God, and God heard that voice to me. Lord, don't worry, because I am anxious and praying. Is this church yours or mine? Leave it to me, you just do your best. Then I'll fix it all. Hallelujah! Because I entrusted it and I did my best within the abilities that were given to me, I achieved beautiful architecture. God never fails. So, believe that you become a great winner when your life becomes yours. I want you to believe in what is still going on today.
This is genuine faith. I believe that God is still alive and working. Even if I go to church, I believe in God
There are many people who do not believe in a dead God, but there are many people who believe in a dead God and the God of the past, which has disappeared due to history. Our God is not such a God. The God who lives and works today, is with us in the past, present, future and eternity, helps us and guides us.
This person is not shaken. Such a person is not discouraged. Such a person does not neglect God's work because of immediate interests. Believe that you are alive. The God who was with Daniel, the God who opened the heavens to Elijah, the God who rescued Paul from the storm is still alive today.
Another thing you have to believe in is the God who rewards you, who rewards those who seek you.
God rewards those who seek Him by investing sweat, tears, time, and everything in Him.
God gives the best blessings to those who do their best. If you live in laziness like a servant with one talent, it will take away what God used to be.
If you do it lukewarmly, you will only feel like Satan's playthings. Heaven is stolen by those who work hard
What you are trying to receive is to live a life you can only live once for the glory of God more beautifully. To receive is to give. Therefore, waiting for the reward of God is a beautiful thing. You don't need your health to catch the weak and raise them up. You don't have to have faith to guide those who are wandering. You don't need material things to help those who don't. You don't need love to give. It is foolish to look at the thin pockets of men, but it is beautiful to look at the pockets of God that never run out. We have to look to the reward of God. When we live in this world according to the Word, we can receive God's blessings. In 1 Corinthians 1:19, it is said that our Christian life is the life of Yes. As Christians, there is only 'yes' and no 'no'. Christians must always live in obedience to God by faith.
If today is the last day of my life, my faith must be judged as genuine before the Lord. In the name of the Lord, I bless you that you will live with genuine faith, believing that he truly lives and works, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
