1, an institution established by God
2, the foundation of spiritual work
3, God's love
In modern times, there are many houses, but homes are gradually disappearing, that is, in the era of absence of families.
we are living
Even today, there are high-class mansions, high-rise A.P.T., row houses, and individual detached houses.
Countless houses are being built.
Will all of those many, many houses be happy?
Goethe said, "The happiest are those who have fun at home."
1, an institution established by God
"""""""""""""""""""""""
In the Bible, the institutions established by God are the family and the church.
Home is a better place than the Garden of Eden.
Whenever God created the heavens and the earth, he said "it was good" and "it was good"
At the time, he said, "It was very good."
Adam and Eve were their first home and it was a very good thing.
This is because God Himself created, intervened, and officiated/.
The most important institution in this world is the home.
It doesn't matter where you live now.
What kind of family you are making now is more important.
In other words, it is important what kind of people live together in what kind of house.
2, the foundation of spiritual work
"""""""""""""""""
If you want to be able to do your spiritual ministry better, you need to do better at home.
That is.
According to 1 Timothy 3:1-7, we have the qualifications of a bishop.
It enumerates the qualifications of a person who assumes the oversight of the church.
There is no mention of the church, all asking what kind of person they are in the family.
"Becoming the husband of one wife" comes first.
Verse 4 says, “He must be a ruler of the house, and bring his children into subjection with all modesty.”
Verse 5 says, “If a man does not know how to rule his own house, how can he rule the church of God?
See you."
This is not just about the qualifications of a director.
The same is said when referring to the qualifications of a deacon in verse 12.
“Governors shall be husbands of one wife, and they shall be rulers of their own houses.”
In 1 Peter 3:7 it says, “Husbands, in the same way you dwell with your wives according to knowledge, and
Recognize that you are a weaker vessel and that you will also receive it as an inheritance in life
so that your prayers may not be blocked."
What do you mean?
It means that if you take good care of your family, your prayers will not be blocked.
Prayer is not pleading or murmuring.
The essence of prayer is to give thanks and praise.
It is the same as saying that those who do not establish a proper family cannot do God's work.
will be.
3, the family is the love of God.
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
If we do not feel true satisfaction, peace, and happiness in our homes, we will
You can only be a loser in the world.
How can we create such a Christian family?
1), to build a house
One day Jesus told the parable of building a house.
One built the house on the rock and the other built on the sand.
Finally, one day, the two houses were completed.
I believe these two houses were probably very similar.
Door, roof, interior structure of house, Style...
But one day, a major incident occurred that decided the difference between the two houses.
The storm started. The rain and wind blew and there was a flood.
The house built on the sand collapsed.
The house, built on the rock, remained solid.
What was the difference between the two houses?
The Lord said:
"Everyone who hears my words and does them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock."
Yes.
The house that collapsed was not built on the words of Jesus Christ.
Not all houses with a church plaque on the main gate or A.P.T. door are Christian homes.
The family where all the members of that family live in contact with the Savior is the family of Christ.
2), a pillar to support the house
In the old days, the temple built by Solomon, the house of God, had two large pillars.
The pillars were Jachin and Boaz.
Our house, the house of Christians, also needs two pillars.
That one pillar is a pillar in the name of love
Also, the pillar of God is a pillar named Sungjong.
Whenever the Bible speaks of a happy Christian home, there is a lesson to be taught.
"Wives, submit to your husbands. Husbands, love your wives."
“Parents, love your children, children, obey your parents.”
Two pillars of love and obedience are needed.
Someone asks a question like this
Why do you keep asking only wives to obey?
Dear saints,
Which is easier: to love or to obey?
You should know that the love here is not ordinary love, but the love of Acafe.
The husband's headship of his wife is the love that Christ loves the church.
Should be.
3), let's make two large windows in the house
The only house without windows is a prison.
Big windows, bigger windows, beautiful windows.
If you have a window open, write "understanding" on the window.
Also, let's write "Forgiveness" in large letters on the window of God.
A Christian family should be a family of understanding and forgiveness.
Because a Christian home is a place where stubborn people live.
because it is not
Today's church members want too much perfectionism, so any mistake can be considered a mistake.
I see a lot of people trying not to forget.
It's not because we don't make any mistakes that we live as Christians.
When you make a mistake, be honest with the other person and say, "I was wrong, please forgive me."
What you can do is the Christian life.
To do this, we must live with the essentials and understanding.
The original Hebrew word for “understanding” means “to think in the other person’s point of view”.
it means
The husband is the wife, and the wife is the husband.
A family where parents think from the point of view of their children, and children from the point of view of their parents!
This understanding of thinking interchangeably leads to forgiveness.
And that forgiveness makes immortal happiness.
4), now let's put the roof on
There can be no house without a roof.
We need a roof to protect our homes from blizzards and rain from outside.
have.
The roof makes our home a cozy and happy refuge.
So what to write on this roof?
Let's Write "The Christian Life of Godliness"
A family without a godly life cannot bear the test.
Even if you know the best way in the world and have acquired the philosophy and skill
If there is no godly life in that family, it soon becomes a house built on sand.
5), now let's hang the gate
Let's write "with Lee Wook" in large letters on the gate.
If you are happy because of Christ, you must open the door wide and share this joy with your neighbors.
will do
Your neighbors will come to your home and see your family's happiness.
To be able to receive Jesus while admiring "Oh, it's because of Jesus" while missing you
have to live
Finally, a happy family under the rule and control of the Holy Spirit, a beautiful Christian
I bless you in the name of the Lord to become a family.
