Title I Know Everything
Contents
He said this to test Philip, knowing what he was going to do.
He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.
1. What God Does
God is omniscient. God knows everything. There is nothing that God does not know. People have a misunderstanding about God, thinking that God cannot know every single person's thoughts. It is a misunderstanding about God. God is the Creator God who made man. God did not create man without knowing that much. God not only created man as a creature, but he already knows the attributes of each person well. Even the devil knows people well. The devil has been testing people since the beginning of time and is still testing people. There is a difference between the devil's temptation and Jesus' temptation on earth and in heaven. The devil's temptation is a test to destroy people. But the temptation of Jesus is a test to save people. There are some people who misunderstand Jesus because they can't even tell the difference between these tests.
From the point of view of the world, Jesus is not happy at all. Not only did he have no place to lay his head, but he was persecuted by nonsensical people and had to be crucified and die. But Jesus was happy with the love that God had given him. No, I was the happiest person in the world. Jesus even prayed that this happiness would come to his disciples as well. Now I am coming to the Father, and I am saying these things in the world, I prayed, that they might have My joy in them to the full. The devil has constantly developed ways to be happy in this world through anything other than the word. Nevertheless, even those who have to teach the Word and imitate what Jesus did do not mention the happiness of Jesus at all. Because even those who teach that way do not take up their cross and follow Jesus like Jesus.
(1) He knew what he was going to do when he said this.
The reason Jesus spoke so far is that he knew what Philip was going to do. Even though he knew it, he spoke in order to save Philip. To change Philip's thinking. In order not to think like Philip, whether it is Philip or another disciple, or the disciple of the disciple who will appear later. Philip had already seen a great crowd coming and was already making human calculations in his mind. Philip was not alone. Most believers can't get out of Philip's level. Nevertheless, Jesus spoke these words to Philip not only to heal Philip, but also to heal all who believed. A shift in thinking is necessary at times like this. Those who must have a change of mind in order to succeed in the world may succeed in the world with that change of thought, but they will never succeed in encroaching on heaven.
(2) Knowing what he was going to do, he wanted to test Philip.
Jesus tried to tempt Philip in order to save Philip. It is to save not only Philip, but also those who have the same thoughts as Philip. However, the devil never tries to save people by his own tests. The devil brings frustration to those who are deceived by that temptation. For those who keep falling through constant temptation, it makes them settle for habitual sins. Realizing that everyone is a sinner, it creates a sense of companionship. That is why they want to lead to destruction together. If you do not understand the temptation of the devil, you can easily be deceived by the devil. However, if you are filled with the Word of Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God, which is stronger than the devil, you can overcome the temptation of the devil.
2. The heart of God
I want you to know well that you are the one who knows everything.
God does not want believers to have a false understanding of Jesus. Jesus already knows everything about people. If you meet Jesus through the Word and know what the scope of temptation is through the Word and stay at the level of Philip, He wants you to be a person who raises you to a better level. The kingdom of heaven is taken by violent men. It is not a place that is given by standing still. Those who think, teach, and act the same way as people in the world and think that they will be able to enter the kingdom of heaven as a bonus, are still ignorant of what they need to know. If you have received salvation, He wants you to become the perfect fulfiller of the salvation you have received. He wants you to reach a spiritual level where you can eat even rice from the level of a breastfed person even though you seem naked in front of Jesus, who knows everything He is going to do.
Matthew 2:16 ?쏛nd when Herod knew that the wise men had deceived him, he became very angry, and sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and all its borders, from the age of two on the same day as the wise men.??
The wise men from the east came to Jerusalem and said, "Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?" It is said that they saw his star from the east and came to worship him. King Herod and all Jerusalem were in turmoil. King Herod asked where the Christ was to be born, and found out that he would be born in Bethlehem, the land of Judea. However, after worshiping the baby Jesus, the wise men returned to their homeland by a different route under the direction of the angel, and when they realized that Herod had been deceived by the wise men, they became very angry and killed everyone from the age of two under him. Jesus, who came as king, wanted to save people even if they knew what was inside, but after King Herod found out, he killed all of them.
3. Who God is
You are the one who knows how to do it.
God knows not only His Son, Jesus, but also Himself, who knows what to do.
4. Traces of Jesus (Confession and Sharing)
(1) The blood of Jesus - He tried to deceive himself in front of a man who knew everything he had to do.
(2) The life of Jesus - Deciding to be honest with the one who knows everything.
5. Prayer
You know everything and test yourself
That the test did not make me more mature
forgive me
Please do not resent that I knew like King Herod.
Know the word and let the word save people
Help me to be a life saver by the Spirit of God
