The 237 Nations and the Bartizan of God’s Kingdom That Fulfills the Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (12)
– Bartizan of the 3-day Weekend Age 58 –
「Restore the Gospel Lost in the Age of Judges」(1Sa 7:9-10)
This is a message for the church officers and industrialists in the US, Korea, and throughout the world. Church officers, it is okay even if you have no strength right now. If you continue to pray within the 7 Bartizans, Journeys, and Guideposts, a different kind of strength will arise. You only need to know what the Three Camps are. In particular, you must know the standard for the Absolute Bartizan. If you know the standard for the Absolute Journey, there are immense secrets within it. If you align yourself with the standard of the Absolute Guidepost, you will surely triumph. The clear fact is that you are living by what you have learned until now, and you will continue to live by what you have learned. In a sense, that is natural. In a sense, isn’t that correct? However, world evangelization cannot be done with that.
7·7·7
The issue is that while we could simply eat and then die, we have the mission to perform world evangelization. That is why Christ gave us these Bartizans, Journeys, and Guideposts. The 7 Bartizans are created within me. The 7 Journeys are the answers that emerge on the path I walk. The 7 Guideposts are the blessings I must leave behind. Therefore, it is not about doing well or poorly, or whether it works or doesn’t work; you must simply be within this covenant.
3 Camps
Once you realize the Three Camps, the diseases you have will one day disappear. In some aspects, it is even better if they remain. You must be able to realize this. You have many problems, conflicts, and trials, but they will become blessings. That is contained within the Three Camps.
「The Age of Judges – Recovery of the Gospel」 (1 Sam 7:9-10)
Because people did not know this, they missed everything. You must look at the people who recovered the Gospel that had disappeared during the Age of Judges. Again, the Gospel is disappearing. Church officers and industrialists only need to know this one thing: even if you do no work at all in the church, if you stand on the path of recovering the Gospel, you will receive the greatest blessing. Even if you were to give your life and your entire fortune, if you are on a path where the Gospel is not recovered, you will fail.
▣ Introduction
1. Wrong Start (X)
The Jews misunderstood this and made a wrong start. The Triune God is everything. His Bartizan, Journey, and Guidepost are everything. But because this is not working, they start with other things.
2. Philistine Attack
At that time, the Philistines attacked and entered.
3. Road vs. [Enemy]
All the surrounding nations should have become a road, but because they did not know this (the recovery of the Gospel), they became enemies. The existence of nations like Assyria, Aram, Egypt, Arabia, and Philistia means they are roads. But because people didn’t know that, they became enemies.
[Church Officers and Industrialists]
During these times, God called church officers and industrialists. There are many, but let us look only at that era.
[Jethro, Rahab, Hannah, Jesse]
He called Jethro. God called Rahab. Moving forward, He called a person named Hannah. He called a person named Jesse. Is number an issue? The “road” is the issue; the number is not the issue. Even if a great army swarms onto the wrong road, it is still the wrong road. Even if only one person walks the correct, right road, it is still the right road.
[400 Years, 14 Judges]
Look especially at this. When people like Rahab and Jethro arose, it was an event that happened after about 400 years. How blind our eyes are—for 400 years they lived having lost the Gospel and became slaves. When did Hannah and Jesse appear? They appeared after passing through 14 generations of judges and losing [the Gospel] again. Many churches and many people take this lightly. However, when the disaster of darkness descends, it is serious.
▣ Main Body – Banner, Light
You must hold the banner and radiate the light. You only need to do this.
1. You Must Know the Reason
First, you must know the reason why Israel could not defeat the Philistines. Right?
1) Large Cities: Philistia was a nation with large cities such as Ashdod, Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. What is this? If you open your eyes and look, this is a complete field [for evangelism]. Because they couldn’t see this and thought of these people as enemies, they became enemies.
2) Palestine: These people originally lived on an island in the Aegean Sea and then migrated to Palestine.
3) Weapons: At that time, they had iron-processing capabilities and created weapons to torment Israel.
You must know the reason here. If you do not preach the Gospel to the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes, spiritual darkness and plagues will sweep the whole world and seize your posterity.
Church officers and industrialists sometimes say, “It’s because I couldn’t do much work for the church.” That is not it. If you stand in the line of recovering the Gospel, you have done everything. There is a person who did no [physical] work and yet received the greatest blessing. Who is it? Theophilus. Why is that? He received the greatest blessing. Why? Because he stood on the path of recovering the Gospel. He stood on the path of recovering the light that saves the darkness. You only realize the blessing of being a church officer when you understand this. A church officer and industrialist who pushes the pastor so he can perform the Gospel movement—so he can do evangelism and missions to his heart’s content—is the person who has received the greatest blessing.
2. You Must Know the Fundamental Reason
Second, you must know the fundamental reason. The Philistines are not the problem.
1) Nazarite: A Nazarite is needed. Right?
2) Leader + David: You shouldn’t make excuses about the Philistines. As in 1 Samuel 16:1-13, the leader Samuel and David, who received guidance, are needed.
3) Goliath – The Figure: A figure to defeat Goliath is needed. David entered here. David is amazing, isn’t he? He said, “I will fight Goliath,” while everyone else was afraid. David knew the fundamental reason. When his brothers rebuked him, he said, “Is there not a reason?” You must know the reason why you do RU, and the reason why you became a church officer.
3. The Method of Recovery
If you know the reason, you must know the method of recovery. That was the Mizpah Movement.
1) Repentance: Return to Jehovah. Repent. This is natural.
2) Idols: Throw away all idols. Of course, because they were wrong.
3) Lamb Sacrifice: Despite this, the Philistines attacked again. They attacked right in the middle of the Mizpah Movement! They came in thinking they would wipe out the Israelites who seemed to be plotting something strange while gathered at Mizpah.
What did Samuel do then? 1 Samuel 7:9-10. He offered a burnt sacrifice of a lamb. What is your worship? We now worship in the name of Jesus Christ, the sacrifice of the Lamb. God sent thunder and smashed the Philistines. It is okay even if you have no strength. God performs signs and wonders to fulfill His work.
The Philistines are not the problem. You must know the reason. It is because people do not know missions and evangelism. You must know the even more important fundamental reason. Our church officers must keep in mind the fact that God has recovered the Gospel through a few church officers.
▣ Conclusion – One Person
An important conclusion emerges. Satan only needs one thing to be missing. He is waiting for there to be not even one person in your church who has found the answer through the Gospel. If there is even just one person, he cannot attack. Right? Even one person is enough. What is Satan’s earnest desire? He only needs churches that haven’t found the answer through the Gospel. He is waiting for pastors who haven’t found the answer through the Gospel to come out in droves. Do you understand what I mean? However, if even one person who has found the answer through the Gospel appears, the darkness is broken.
[David]
Therefore, after finishing the Mizpah Movement, offering the blood sacrifice, and recovering God’s covenant, Samuel does one thing. He raises David. That was the last important task.
Industrialists and church officers, you already know whether you are precious or not. However, in every age, you only need to open one eye. If the Gospel disappears, Satan can move you however he wants. If this Gospel disappears, this darkness covers everything. The Gospel is not just “a” light; only the Gospel is the light. That is when disasters crawl in. If you possess the Gospel, whatever problem arises, it becomes a blessing. Even if darkness covers and disasters come because of unbelievers, it becomes a blessing. Although He sent the flood because of the wicked, Noah lived because of the flood. This week, all of you church officers and industrialists must truly take hold of this covenant in your hearts.
Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the infinite and eternal love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit be upon all the church officers and industrialists throughout the country, and especially upon the church officers and industrialists in America, from now until forevermore. Amen.
