27. Nov. 2024 Remnant Conference in America, Leader Retreat, Lecture 2
Theme: 『 Restore What Was Taken 』 (2 Corinthians 10:4-6)
▣ Introduction
A leader can save the world with the prayer that Jesus taught. You must not do other things; you must do this. Do not do what is unnecessary—do what Jesus spoke of. Then you will become the ones who save.
Now then, there is a second thing that remnant leaders absolutely must know. All seven remnants did this. If so, wherever you are, as leaders you must do this. It is Exodus. It is also called Exit. Do this 300%. Moses freed the Israelites from Egypt. Right? In Philistia, people like David and Samuel freed them. The remnants who went to Babylon finished world evangelization and brought liberation. In the end, the remnants rose and conquered Rome. You must surely remember this. So although this may look like nothing, there is a reason for slaves, captives, colonies, and wanderers. Because missions is stopping the spiritual epidemic of the whole world, you absolutely must go; if you do not go, it cannot be done. That is why they were sent. So what is 300%? First, you know the reason why you became captives. That is the first 100%. And as you do this work, you have absolutely no excuses. That is the second 100%. That is in the field. There is no excuse. Why? Because you know the reason, and you know there is another reason at the end—that is Exodus 300%. If you always resolve things this way, everything is resolved. A problem has come—there is clearly a reason, is there not? There is a good reason of God. Right? Then when you collide with reality, you have no reason and no excuse. Because we have another reason—to save. You must surely remember this.
Now, in the introduction there is something you must remember: did the Israelites become slaves in Egypt? Yes. But is that really all? God sent them to do world evangelization. But then they came out of Egypt because of the remnants, so did they truly come out?
1) Exodus 23:14-17
More important than the Exodus itself was that God made the Israelites know the three feasts.
2) 1 Samuel 7:1-15
Coming out of Philistia—this was not the important point. All the leaders gave excuses about the Philistines. Two people appeared who did not make excuses about the Philistines—one was Samuel and one was David. Samuel said, “All Israel, gather at Mizpah.” It was not a Philistine problem. People who see it as a Philistine problem cannot receive answers. “Throw away all idols and return to the Lord,” and he built an altar. He gave a burnt offering. And David went in the name of the Lord and broke Goliath. This is very important. He said he went “in the name of the Lord.”
3) Haggai 2:1-9
They truly became captives again in Babylon. In Haggai 2:1-9, God commands the rebuilding of the temple and commands them to return.
4) Acts 1:6-8
Were they a colony under Rome? Yes. But that was not the real essence. At this time the disciples asked, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” The question itself was not wrong. But Jesus said, “It is not for you to know that now.” “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.” This comes first.
▣ Main – Exodus of Darkness (Satan)
You will later become leaders and everything, will you not? Remnant talents (leaders) must surely remember this. Were they truly freed from Egypt? What must you do? You must be freed from here. Right? Coming out of Egypt is not the important thing. They were not freed from darkness. They were not freed from Satan. You must do this. The first message was watchmen—free people from darkness…
1. Church
So what is first? You must first free the church from darkness.
1) Wilderness 40
What did the Israelites do during forty years in the wilderness? It is that they had not really come out. It is true they came out, but in reality they did not. Right? They came out of Egypt. But did they truly come out? No. They died in the sand. That must be revived. Because they did not realize this, what do you think of the church today? You must later save the church.
2) Matthew 12:26-30
Jesus spoke to the Pharisees who were considered to live their faith well. “Satan has built a bartizan inside you. Your father is the devil.” It is truly shocking. These people were shocked. Why? Because it was the truth. They lived their faith zealously. While they could not keep all the law, they claimed they kept all of it. On top of that, they kept the whole Israelite system. On top of that, they kept their traditions. That is amazing. That is why they were ruined. You must rescue them from there. You must go to the church and truly, by prayer, rescue those who are in darkness. Our church leaders (church leaders) who are in the other room—if even one of them truly comes out, it is enough. Right? If even one true praying church leader comes out, all darkness will be broken. You must firmly hold this covenant today.
3) Acts 11:1-18
Those who complained because Peter went to Cornelius’ house—who were they? They were church leaders. People who did important work in the church, long-timers, kept speaking unbelief everywhere, so even Peter could not speak freely and had to answer in a roundabout way. What should he have said immediately? “Did not Christ tell us to go to the ends of the earth, to all peoples, to every nation?” That is what he should have said. But how did Peter answer? “Do you think I wanted to go? While I was praying, a vision came down—what could I do? God told me to go. When I went and prayed, the Holy Spirit came on them—what could I do? So I went and ate there and came back,” he answered like that. Right? They must be freed.
4) 2 Corinthians 10:4-5
To what extent were they not freed? Paul said, “There is a tremendous fortress inside you—a stronghold that will never collapse. You must demolish it.” He calls it “strongholds.” A very strong fortress is in you—not just a bartizan.
5) Galatians 2:11-20
He even spoke to the extent we mentioned earlier—in Galatians 2 he confessed this way. This is not something said to a new believer—he said it to Peter. “Have we not been crucified with Christ? Is it not Christ who lives in us?” This is what he explained to Peter. You must bring about freedom from darkness in the church because of you. Understood? That is the leader. You are leaders.
2. 237 – 5,000
You must free the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes. To the people from the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes who come, you must explain the gospel accurately, and then you must set them free from what they are bound by.
1) Genesis 3:15
“The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” That serpent is Satan. Everyone is caught there. All culture is caught there. Right? You must smash it. There is no need for anything else. All the satanic culture in Egypt must be smashed. In Exodus 3:18, “Go to give a blood sacrifice.” There is no need to say anything other than the gospel. It must be the gospel. The person who receives answers when you speak only the gospel is the real disciple. If someone comes to church because you treat them well, that person is not a disciple. Right? Then what if you don’t treat them well? Then what? That person is not a disciple. A disciple is someone who, when you speak only of Christ, solves all his answers.
2) Exodus 3:18
On the day the blood was applied, they came out. Moses understood this. It was a blessing. When God said, “Go to give a blood sacrifice,” Moses did not explain the blood. He said, “I am a fugitive. How can I go?” That was his meaning. He was not saying something wrong. If he went to Egypt, he would be captured and killed, and God was telling him to go stand before Pharaoh and speak. But on the day they applied the blood of the lamb, they came out. Because they had to be freed, the ten plagues almost completely smashed the culture of Egypt.
3) Isaiah 7:14
Because they did not understand, they became captives again. “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son”—that statement is important. He came in a human body, but He is not a mere human. “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and you shall call His name Immanuel.” This blessing was delivered to Babylon.
4) Matthew 16:16
When they were a colony under Rome, He asked them in Caesarea Philippi. Caesarea Philippi is a combination of the name of Caesar, the Roman emperor, and Philip. Right? He asked them there. At that time Peter said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” “You are the Lord of Genesis 3:15 who solves all problems. You are the Son of God.” Did He say, “Simon son of Jonah, you are amazing”? No. Did He say, “Indeed you graduated from Harvard”? No. He said, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah.” That is the true blessing. “For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven. You are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church Myself. The gates of Hades will not overcome you. I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” To the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes, you must not teach anything else. Right? You must teach this accurately.
5) Matthew 28:16-20, Mark 16:15-20, Acts 1:8
And you must teach the risen Christ. In Matthew 28:16-20, He taught who it is that is with you with all authority in heaven and on earth. In Mark 16:15-20, “In My name you will drive out demons.” When they prayed in that name, the sick were healed. You must explain this tremendous name. Christ Himself gave this promise. “When you receive the fullness of the Holy Spirit, you will receive power.” What is the fullness of the Holy Spirit? It is when the bartizan, journey, and guidepost become 300%. Leaders, do you understand? Just pray. Then works will arise. Do not do other things. Some elders, thinking no one is in the restroom, say important things there, badmouthing the pastor and such. And a remnant happened to hear. The whole church was thrown into turmoil. But that is not even the real issue. If you go to the restroom, you should just relieve yourself—why say useless things? People say this many useless things. Pray. Understood? Remnants, just pray. Jesus said, “Only.”
3. Person
And what next? You must save many people—individuals. You must set them free. No one else can do this.
1) Acts 3:1-12
There was a man crippled from birth sitting at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. Even if this beggar had so much money from begging, he was still a beggar. Even if this man owned one hundred houses, he was still crippled. Right? Even if he stood up and walked, if he had not received salvation, he would still be someone not freed from darkness. He would be someone not freed from darkness. “What I have I give to you.” “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” They saved the person.
2) Acts 13 / 16 / 19
Look at what Paul did—he went in unconditionally and saved people. He completely freed those who were seized by darkness and Satan. Remnants must do this work.
3) Romans 16:17-20
Even more importantly, in Romans 16:17-20, “Make Satan kneel.” Understood? If you cast him out, he comes again. Right? In the name of Jesus he is driven out, but he comes again. Make him kneel so that he will not come. Satan knows. Evil spirits know like evil spirits. “We must not go to that person”—they know. “There is no point going to that church”—they know. Save the individual. “Be innocent about what is evil and wise about what is good.” The people who cause trouble cannot do good, yet they are so skilled at evil that it surprises me. They cannot do evangelism, but they are full professionals at tormenting people. If you do that 24 hours a day, that is how you become. And if you go evangelize at prisons, they cannot do what is right, but they are truly like demons at doing wrong. When you are demon-possessed, that is how it is. You cannot do what is good. You cannot evangelize. You cannot do missions. But you are good at doing evil. That is what this means. That is why you must make the devil kneel.
What does that mean? Satan said about Job, “If he loses all his property, he will curse God.” What did Job do? He put on sackcloth, put his head to the ground before God, and repented. “The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away. May I not blame God because of this.” Then he even became sick. At that time, in Job 19:25, what did he say? “When I meet the Lord, I will meet Him outside of this body. I will not meet Him in this rotten skin.” His friends came and mocked him again. At that time he said, “He knows the way that I take. When He has tested me, I will come forth as gold. His will is unchanging; He will surely fulfill His purpose.” Satan knelt. “Job cannot stand it”—and he knelt. You must make Satan kneel. If there are some lacking people in the church and some who have done wrong, help them realize and return. Right? That is Satan kneeling. Satan says, “Why don’t they fight? They should fight,” and then he kneels. This is very important. Save the individual.
▣ Conclusion
Because you are leaders, you must remember this.
1) RT (Gospel)
All the things that the seven remnants did freed people and even entire nations with this gospel.
2) JX
What did Jesus Christ come and do? He freed many who were bound. “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” He told them to come just as they were. “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” When sinners and tax collectors who longed for the Word came, Jesus received them and ate with them. When the adulterous woman came, weeping in sorrow, Jesus forgave her. Do what Jesus did. Do not do what the Pharisees did; do what Jesus did. Today, if you are not careful, the words used by churches all over the world are just like the words of the Pharisees.
3) Paul
Look at all the ministry Paul did. He set free those who were bound and rescued those in darkness. So there is no one on this earth who changed the world as much as Paul. As I see it, after Jesus Christ, Paul is the one who caused the greatest works. He even said this: he completely changed culture. “In Christ Jesus, all are one” (Galatians 3:28). This changed the world’s culture. This changed the powerful culture of America. Lincoln ran for office holding onto Galatians 3:28, saying he would abolish slavery. He thought the rich would oppose him, but they did not. So the gospel is rescuing those who are oppressed under darkness.
This is the 2024 leader message, but you must remember it for your whole life. Because these two are not being done, the churches of the world are in difficulty. They do not know how to pray; they do not know the gospel so they do not know how to forgive. Is that a person who has received salvation? They do not do what Jesus said, and the churches of the world are now on the verge of closing their doors. You must go in and save them. Remnants, understood? If you pray, you can save everyone. Let us pray.
Prayer. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the infinite love of God, and the powerful working of the Holy Spirit be with these remnant leaders who will save the world, from now on and forevermore. Amen.
