Today is a meaningful week as we end one year and prepare for a new one. It is also a meaningful day as, for the first time in Korea, missionaries are being commissioned toward the 5000 tribes. Wherever you go, and you pastors also, many things must be done, but it is necessary to make people come. Mainly, many who are spiritually sick want to go somewhere, but in reality there is nowhere for them to go. Now the three organizations have already well prepared places to make people come. We must quickly catch this.

And the future generations must rise, and we must make it so that they rise. That is the three courtyards. This includes the three-day weekend age. So now we have no time for disputes or fights. We must make it so that the multiethnic peoples can come.

Since today is such an important day, let us look at three things.

▣ The evangelist’s timetable
Today is Remnant Day, but before that, what is the evangelist’s timetable? This is what we must check. In what timetable must the evangelist be?

▣ The RT’s timetable
And since today is Remnant Day, what is the remnant’s timetable?

▣ The scattered disciple’s timetable
And what is the timetable of the scattered disciples?

We must look well at these timetables.

When you go to Songdo, or Busan, or Seoul’s Eulwangri, there are many restaurants. What makes me feel the most unpleasant and difficult is when they keep trying to force me into their restaurant, guiding insistently. In Busan, it is always like that. Almost certainly, this is something only our country does. In advanced nations, they absolutely never do that. Absolutely not. So I think, “Can they do business at such a level?” Even to the point of rushing out as though they will get hit by a car, they do this.

But then I went to a restaurant in Japan. The owner was wearing a name tag. On the tag was not only his name, but above it was written, “12th owner, so-and-so.” Inside the restaurant there were records of the 11 owners before him. That restaurant has been running for 500 years. So I thought, comparing it with the pitiful state of many Korean restaurants, what a huge difference.

So pastors, sometime next year, please establish two more worship services, even if at first it feels a bit burdensome. A multiethnic worship that follows the flow of the senior pastor’s message, and a healing worship that follows the flow of the senior pastor’s message. Of course there is also the worship where everyone gathers together. At first you may think, “Is this really necessary? What kind of training is this?” But absolutely not—it is crucial.

If you go to old restaurants, there are still those who have not renewed. Some places require you to remove your shoes before entering. Unless it is a very high-class restaurant, restaurants where you must remove your shoes will not last. Of course, some places make you remove your shoes just for style. But aside from that, it is far more convenient to wear shoes inside. Nowadays, when I went to a restaurant I frequented, I saw they had switched to letting customers keep shoes on. I said to the owner, “You renewed!” He replied, “The customers feel much more comfortable.” “Of course,” I thought. Before, they made you take off your shoes, warning “Be careful with your shoes,” even giving you a plastic bag to carry them. What is the point of that?

Do you know why I say this? Churches have in the same way created structures that make revival impossible. And the church leaders stand guard at those old, dead-end gates. Open your eyes and see carefully. People are truly sick and they want to come, but there is nowhere to go. And the smart students cannot come to church on Sundays, because they must pay extra to attend special classes—and all those classes are held on Sunday. We must quickly open the three-day weekend age, making it so that they cannot help but come. Among our remnants and among us are outstanding talents. But they are all left unattended. If we open something like the three-day weekend age, offering what is most needed, they cannot help but come. “Ah, but this is a countryside church.” Not so. Nowadays, everyone has cars. Saying it is too far is just an excuse. If distance were really the issue, then why do they go to restaurants?

▣ The evangelist’s timetable – Eternity
So then, what is the reason Judaism and the Medieval Church lost hold of the gospel? They lost hold of this—eternity. As long as we continue in this, it is enough.

Right now, theologians are the problem. There are many famous theologians in America. But let us ask honestly: why are American churches closing at such a rapid pace? Whose responsibility is it? Is it Trump’s responsibility? It is not. The churches in America are rapidly shutting down. So quickly we must connect here and begin evangelist training in places like America. This is the theologians’ responsibility. People who have never evangelized, who know nothing about it, became theologians and scholars. They spend their whole lives doing work unrelated to the movement of life. Of course, academically, theology must be studied. But to use it for politics, to hurt others, is that why they studied theology? Meanwhile, the believers and churches are shutting down. Europe is long gone. It is completely dead.

There were two so-called masters of expository preaching in England. Martin Lloyd-Jones, who shook the world, and John Stott. They were masters of expository preaching. But what happened to the churches in England? Did they open or close? They closed. What is this thing called expository preaching or exegetical preaching? The Bible is thematic preaching. It is about Jesus Christ. From the beginning, they went wrong. Perhaps for personal study and skill, such things may have value, but for the church, it is unnecessary. They lost hold of eternity. And thus, European churches all died.

1. Today within eternity
So it is not too late. We must find today within eternity.

2. Mission within eternity
We must find the mission within eternity.

3. The hidden things within eternity
And we must find the hidden things within eternity. As long as we enjoy this, it is enough.

1. Today within eternity
Eternal things do not disappear. As time passes, works arise.

1) 7 bartizans (Imprint → Platform)
God gave us eternal things, the 7 bartizans. If my today is within this, it becomes imprinted. And the more it is imprinted, the more it becomes a platform. Continue even now and begin from tomorrow to enjoy this prayer. There is nothing else to do. From this, your work arises. From this, your health arises.

But people do not know that if you just pray, everything is solved. They do not know this. When you pray, your brain is transformed, your lungs come alive. When you pray, immunity arises throughout your body. But because they are ignorant of prayer, they keep doing only things opposed to prayer—thinking, worrying, endlessly. They spend 24 hours like this. It is only by God’s grace that they live, but no works arise. You must remember this.

2) 7 journeys (Root → Watchman’s bartizan)
This is eternal. As you go on the 7 journeys, they do not remain only journeys—they begin to take root. And then others come. You begin to save others. Because light shines here.

3) 7 guideposts (Nature → Antenna)
Continue in this prayer. As you enjoy the 7 guideposts, they change your nature. And then they become an antenna of communication. You must always be enjoying this.

This is necessary not only for you, but especially pastors and elders must restore it. You must first be healthy. If you are always sick and weak, it is difficult to do the Lord’s work. It is not about wanting to live long.

Dr. Lee Si-Hyung once said: the average lifespan is into the 80s, but disease strikes already in the 70s. So most people spend 10 years sick before dying. He even said a strange thing—that he does not do medical checkups as he ages. Why? He saw in autopsies that even people who said, “I lived healthy, I lived to 85 or 90,” most were already filled with cancer or dementia. He said, “Not knowing was much happier. If they had known, how miserable would it have been?” That is how much people are plagued by disease.

This—7 bartizans, 7 journeys, 7 guideposts—is truly important. For us there are only two things: prayer and breathing. When you were born, you breathed. When breathing ends, you go. Spiritual breathing is prayer. Through this you must save today. Do it. Comfortably. Those who have worries—set them down. So you are not the kind of people who must strive to obtain things. That is unbelievers. You are not merely striving—you are those who move the throne.

2. Mission within eternity
Then from here comes mission. That is Romans chapter 16, and it is shown mainly like this.

1) Protector
Because of you, the evangelist of your church is protected. To say “protected” does not mean guided. To say “protected” means the evangelist in danger is protected.

2) Co-worker
And it means to stake your life together, a co-worker.

3) Host
And it does not mean to use much money. It means to help for the sake of missions, a host.

3. The hidden things within eternity
At this time, there are the people of Romans chapter 16.

1) Before eternity
God gives what is hidden within eternity. If God hid it from before eternity, how important must it be? He says He will give that.

2) Now
And even now, there are many hidden things. He says He will give this.

3) Forever
And He says He will give what will be forever.

This year’s theme, the New Year’s message, is “Change it. Find it. Establish it.” What should be changed? There may be many, but what must absolutely be done in 2025? What should be found? In 2025 what must absolutely be found? What must be established? That, during the New Year’s message, we must share together like forum.

▣ The RT’s timetable
Now, in such a time God raised the remnant. The timetable of the remnant is now four things.

1. The watchman’s bartizan
If the remnant is not established now, they will suffer all their life. This is lesson 1. If they are established now, they will succeed all their life. What does this mean? This—eternity. You must first have this. The remnant must establish this bartizan of eternity.

2. The power of the throne
And what the remnant must right now have by faith is the power of the throne. To win by lying in all ways, to succeed by all kinds of crooked means like unbelievers—that is not your level. Nearly all people are like that today. Then you cannot even tell which words are true. Every time they open their mouths, it is lies. To become such a “talented” person—that is not for you. You must have the power of the throne. No fight is possible. How can there be a fight? You must be at the level where you cannot but win.

3. Where first
Then where must this power of the throne first take place? That is what next month’s forum will be.

4. The actual throne – when it comes (the standard)
When the power of the throne actually comes, what happens? What is the standard? Words. The remnant must know this already.

1. The watchman’s bartizan (Acts 1:1–14)
If the remnant prepares now, even with little done, later in life works will arise. This is the bartizan Jesus gave in Acts 1:1–14.

1. The Triune God
So, in reality, the watchman of the remnant is the Triune God.

2. Fulfillment
And God gave you this bartizan—what bartizan? That which is being fulfilled now. The Triune God is even now fulfilling the Word, prayer, and salvation of souls. Have this bartizan. Become this watchman.

3. The method
So what is the method? How important is this? With, Immanuel, Oneness.

1) WITH
God is now with me.

2) Immanuel
He is now with us, in the church.

3) Oneness
And what seemed not to work, He works together in all things.

So for the way the remnant goes, it is not about comfort. There is no such thing as possible or impossible. There is no possible, impossible. God is with me, He is Immanuel with us, He is working Oneness. This is certain.

But perhaps the weather is a bit cold. It is only cold; it is not ruin. The weather is too hot. It is only hot; it is not ruin. You must remember this. While you are in this, God’s plan is being fulfilled precisely.

2. The power of the throne
1. Heavenly
So God gives you the power of Heavenly—the power of the throne.

2. Thronely
As in the praise we even created this word, Thronely.

3. Eternaly
And Eternaly. So He is with us with Heavenly power, Thronely power, Eternaly power. Sometimes you may just laugh and remain still. It is a process. What process? God is with me, and He is with me with this power.

In conclusion, if someone is going through great difficulties, unless they are a strange person, they are a great person. If someone is going through great difficulty, they are a great person. Would you give a graduate-level exam to a kindergarten child? Of course not. A kindergarten child only gets “What is 1+1?” Would you say, “Do calculus”? They cannot. On the other hand, would you gather graduate students and ask, “What is 1+1?” That would be a joke. So know that all of us have this—Heavenly, Thronely, Eternaly.

3. Where first
Where must this come first? This is important.

1. Genesis 1:27
It comes upon my soul. God’s image comes upon me.

2. Genesis 2:7
Not only that—He breathed into man the breath of life. Everything comes out of this—eternity. This is the evangelist’s timetable. And because we cannot miss this opportunity, it is the remnant’s timetable.

Haven’t you experienced this? Sometimes the remnant hears just once and says, “Yes, that’s right!” and works arise. But if, as a remnant, they go astray a little, they suffer losses later.

3. Genesis 2:18
And what else? Like the blessing of the Garden of Eden, works begin in my field, in my home.

4. The actual throne – when it comes (the standard)
Then, to what extent must the power of the throne become my standard? This must be taught clearly, so that we can align with it.

1. 237
It aligns with 237. That is why Jesus said, “Go to all nations.” “Go to all peoples.” “To the ends of the earth.” This must align with me.

For example, today’s work of the commissioned missionaries—this will align with 237.

2. 5000
Then, it aligns with the 5000 tribes. This is the standard. The remnant’s career, work, study, your work—later you will see that it aligns with 237. The evangelism work pastors are doing—this is aligning with 237. With the 5000 tribes. It is tremendous.

3. Transcending time and space, unprecedented and unrepeatable, the mystery of prayer

Then three changes occur. Transcending time and space. Only then does it align with 237 and 5000. Unless you know the answer of transcending time and space, you cannot understand these words. The unprecedented and unrepeatable grace arises. This is prepared for you. When you know this, you know the mystery of prayer. Hold tightly to this and enjoy it even now.

Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

---

Our missionaries who are being commissioned must ultimately influence the remnants. Especially, they must influence the TCKs. Among the remnants, it is the TCKs who can conquer the world. And simply, what must we let our remnants and TCKs, our missionaries and many pastors know? It is this (7･7･7). Just continue it. You just keep doing this. The 7 bartizans, the journey, and the guideposts—just comfortably begin them every morning when you open your eyes. At first it may feel like nothing much, but later it becomes imprinted. Because this becomes the root and nature, you will be able to find every answer from here.

In my case, I divide the 7 into this breathing: when I inhale, it is what I enjoy; when I exhale, it is what I pass on to others. This is something truly amazing. Then what is the very last of the 7 bartizans? It is the three courtyards. So the church must enjoy the blessing of these three courtyards. This is the first lecture of this New Year’s prayer gathering. If this is not restored, it is not a church. Then how do you exhale? You aim it toward others, but surely this team of missionaries will arise. How many times do I do this in a day? While I am doing this all day, you are included and I am included. Just this itself is already a miracle. Isn’t that so? Even if a beggar sitting on the roadside prays 24 hours for me, it is a miracle. Am I a beggar? No, I am not.

▣ Main

When you continue this, three focuses will come out.

1. Discovery – Only
Something becomes visible. This is what we call only. Already today the message was given. This “only” appears, and it appears in this way.

1) Every day – The “only” of every day appears. This is prayer, isn’t it? You see the “only” of every day. Not just seeing it…

2) Work (events) – Because you must do work. Sometimes events happen. From there, the “only” becomes visible.

3) Lifetime – And what is more important, the “only” of my lifetime becomes visible.

These three things appear daily as grace. This must be passed on to the remnants, the missionaries must hold to it, and it must be included in your prayers. So sometimes depending on the situation you do this (7･7･7) all day, sometimes morning, noon, and evening. You just keep doing it. As you keep doing it, you begin to see. It is not difficult at all. Because you see.

2. Waiting – Uniqueness
Now, when doing this, it is not done vaguely but waiting for something. What are we waiting for? We are waiting for the kingdom of God to come. This is what we call uniqueness.

1) Functional summit – This waiting, simply speaking, includes many things, but for remnants and workers it is waiting for functionality. Unique.

2) Professionalism – Then this takes on professionalism. It inevitably becomes like this.

3) Globalization – It takes on world nature. Then you know what you must do. Absolutely, remnants must not miss this. If you are praying like this, then within your studies you see this (only). You see the “only.” Then as you keep enjoying this, you see this (uniqueness).

3. Challenge – Re-creation
Then you begin to challenge toward what God most desires in your life. This is what we call re-creation. Re-creation has many aspects, but there are three.

1) Nobody – Everybody, Nothing – Everything. From “nobody,” everything is found. Building the three courtyards is not a matter of whether I can or cannot do it. It does not exist, therefore it must be done. You save all people and everything.

2) Summit – To do this, God first gives the answer of the summit. You become the summit. To others it seems amazing. Because you have become the summit.

3) Non-competition – What is more important? Non-competition. There is no need to fight. There are many who pick fights with us, but it is useless. They are not our opponents. Our battle is with darkness and Satan, not with people. We have no competitors. Did Joseph have any competitor? No. Did David have a competitor? No. No one can compete with you. This is once again the confirmation of only, uniqueness, and re-creation. This is connected to today’s industrial missions, missionary commissioning, and the lecture.

Remnants, always enjoy this. (7･7･7) When? Don’t even calculate. Just enjoy. Then it comes out, like this (main message). It becomes visible like this. May this blessing be upon your church, your work, and your studies, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, thank You. We thank You for the grace to know what belongs to You. We thank You for blessing us to be able to do what belongs to You. We thank You for giving us strength to devote ourselves and challenge toward what You most desire. May only the gospel be testified to all the world. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

22. Dec. 2024 Immanuel Church the Second Service
Scripture Reading: Acts 11:19-30

---

Thank you. Today is our temple construction worship service, and there are a few things we must keep in mind.

At a very important time, the Antioch church was used. The reason is that they fixed the future time. First, during our temple construction you must do what the Antioch church restored.

[ Restoration of the Blessing of the Three Economies ]
We must surely restore the blessing of the three economies that the Antioch church restored.

[ Economy of Light (Offerings, Tithes) ]
First is the economy of light. For a church of light, the offerings to the church and the tithe are the economy of light. In a sense, this is difficult. All my life I saw that my mother never once skipped her tithe. It is hard. Of course it is also so when you have much, but it is harder to do when you do not have much. Every month we would look over things—she would first set apart the weekly offering and the tithe. Then there is not much left, and you live on that. I did not understand, but now I have much insight. How great were the miracles God did? Not once was anyone in our family ever sick. That is a miracle. It is no small thing to say that for decades of life there was no illness. God completely protected us. Back then the newspaper collector would come for payment; besides the newspaper bill, no one ever came to our house to collect money. Until now God has blessed us to do world evangelization. I know this secret.

[ Mission Economy (Missions – Temple) ]
And what we must surely restore is the mission economy. The most important thing here is missions and the temple that builds the three courtyards. If these two are not connected, you cannot do right missions. Therefore we are going to build a temple with the three courtyards.

[ Remnant Economy (Age) ]
From then on, the Remnants arise. The Remnant economy speaks of the economy of the next generation—the economy of the age. Because Remnants look ahead to the age that will arise and prepare, you must not judge by what is happening now. Even now, banks are turning to digital currency. Tremendous changes will come. Therefore Remnants must surely pray and see the economy of the age.

▣ Introduction – Three Events
Then we must first confirm three events.

1. The Event of Stephen
Three events appear here. What are they? “The event of Stephen.” You know Stephen’s event—he preached the gospel once and died tragically. Some, seeing this tremendous fact, even say, “That is discipline,” or “That is disaster.” God showed us the manner of Stephen’s death: (1) Full of the Holy Spirit (2) Heaven opened (3) Jesus Christ standing at the throne. He was full of the Holy Spirit, and God showed the open heaven and Jesus Christ standing at the throne. This was Stephen’s event. “Stephen fell asleep,” it says.
Regarding the one who recently went to be with the Lord in Seoul, I think this way: they themselves may not know, but if one passes while doing the Lord’s work, that is martyrdom. No one knows. When my father died because of believing in Jesus, not a single relative came. I had never seen a family like that—no one came. Normally, at least the siblings would come. Because he believed in Jesus, they did not come. And they said he was cursed for believing in Jesus—because he died early, he was cursed. Unbelievers can see it that way. I was in my first year of middle school. Truly we received blessings incomparable to those people in the world—spiritually of course, but even physically there is no comparison. They lived so painfully. They persecuted us so much that later they were ashamed to come.
The event of Stephen shook the world. To be martyred for the Lord is no ordinary matter. (Saul) As you know, Paul was within this—his name then was Saul. He was there.

2. The Event of Crisis (Acts 12:1–25)
After that, what happened was that they met an even greater crisis. How could this be? Those who only look at reality and make calculations will not receive any of God’s true blessings. Stephen died like this, and then crisis struck again—what happens then? Most will stumble. If hardships keep coming, most will run. Yet this was the time when God was making the world’s first, greatest church. This is Acts 12. At that time all the church leaders gathered at the center. They should have run, but they gathered. In chapter 12 we see them praying through the night.
Angels, Messengers Scripture clearly records that to the place of prayer God sent the Lord’s angel. To the place of prayer God sends His messenger. The same word—but the Lord sent an angel to free Peter, and sent a messenger to strike down King Herod. If crisis comes while you proclaim the gospel, know that it is the most blessed time. Do not fear. Then important words appear here.

3. “Those Who Were Scattered”
It says, “those who were scattered.” These scattered ones established the Antioch church, and as they prayed at night, amazing miracles took place. Why is this? God was making the first-ever church the world had not seen—a church with three courtyards. This is a very important timetable.
[ The Lord’s Hand ] Thus Acts 11:19 says, “The hand of the Lord was with them.” There is no more important phrase than this—the Lord’s hand was with them. Do you see the Lord’s hand?
[ The Lord’s Grace ] And in verse 23 it says, “He saw the grace of the Lord.” Can you see grace? It is different: within the church, the grace of the Lord was seen, and it was seen that the mighty hand of the Lord was with them.
[ Paul ] Then God sent Paul here. Was that a coincidence? There is absolutely no coincidence.
[ Barnabas ] God sent Paul here, and from then on he met Barnabas.
[ A Great Number of Disciples ] At that time, despite such persecution, “a great number of disciples were gathered.”
[ Blessing ] Though a great famine came upon the whole world, God blessed only the Antioch church—what blessing? He blessed them with the economy of light, blessed them with the mission economy so they could do missions, and restored the Remnant economy so they could raise the next generation.

▣ Main
Now, what kind of temple must we build? Before that, we must first receive answers. This is the great blessing to receive from the New Year. Who are these people? This is what we must surely do.

1. Those Who Changed the Bartizan
Those who changed the bartizan. This is what we must do from now on.

2. Those Who Found the Journey
Second, those who found the journey. We must find God’s journey.

3. Those Who Set Up the Guideposts
The last part is even more important: those who set up the guideposts. Paul is now seeing what Jesus taught. We will keep confirming this at New Year’s, but it is simple.

1. Those Who Changed the Bartizan
Which bartizan must be changed?
[ Satan’s Bartizan ]
It is dreadful. You will never receive answers. Jesus said, “There is a bartizan of Satan within you.” It must be changed. No matter what you do, there will be no answer until you change Satan’s bartizan. In Matthew 12:26–30 Jesus said, “How can someone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his goods unless he first binds the strong man?” And He continued, “When the Holy Spirit comes and Satan is bound, the kingdom of God has come upon you.” You must never forget this.
[ The Bartizan of the Throne ]
Then we set up the bartizan of the throne. If you only change this, tremendous works will arise.

2. Those Who Found the Journey
This we must surely do.
[ The Nephilim Journey ]
Without even knowing it, you are walking the journey of the Nephilim—being dragged by Satan. People have no idea. If the church does not know, how will others? It is written only in the Bible; if the church does not teach it, people cannot know. Therefore believers who have competence should even send reports by message to those in high places of their nation. Now we must. We must send why America has the most mental illness. In Japan mental illness swarms—sorry to the Japanese, but we must send the reason. In Korean churches, mental illness has suddenly appeared—it has increased too much. We do not know what disaster will occur. They are on the Nephilim journey. How offensive will this sound? Jesus said, “You are of your father the devil.” They are being led by him.
[ The Journey of the Throne ]
We must find the journey of the throne that no one can block.

3. Those Who Set Up the Guideposts
[ Tower of Babel ]
People of the world are setting up guideposts for the Tower of Babel that will soon collapse.
[ Guideposts of the Throne ]
We are different. We set up guideposts of the throne that will never disappear. It may look as if things are not working for you now, but God is most surely preparing. At least your eyes must open to this.

When we were young, people said our family would not make it—that our house would not succeed. The situation looked that way. But they did not make it. When we came to this town and began the pioneering, neighboring churches said our church would not make it. They were the ones who could not make it—why say we cannot? I kept hearing that. As soon as we came, from all sides they said our church would not make it. The early members—elders and deaconesses—are witnesses. Next to us they said our church would not make it. When we began “Darakbang” and spread the evangelism movement nationwide, some foreign scholar said Darakbang would not make it. “Why?” “For such-and-such reasons.” That is only your thought. He could not make it and disappeared. People simply cannot grasp this: that Satan’s bartizan is inside me, that I am walking the Nephilim journey being dragged along, and that I am currently within the soon-to-collapse Tower of Babel.

▣ Conclusion – [ 237 ] [ 5000 ]
Therefore we must actually cause the 237 nations and the 5000 people groups to come. We need more people in business to rise up, because we cannot bring the Remnants of the 5000 people groups without them. Even now, Pastor Salam’s wish is to come to Korea, but his country will not let him out. At times our own Korea does not grant permission. He truly bears a commission, yet he cannot come. He wants to come to the missions conference but cannot.

1. The Three Courtyards
To save these people, we set up the three courtyards. We set them up at 300%.

2. The Three-Day Weekend Age
From among them we must raise disciples and at least enable the Remnants to pray. This is called the three-day weekend age. I believe Paul, watching how Jesus did this for forty days and at the synagogue on each Sabbath, thought, “Ah, I must open that age.”

3. The Holy Meditation Age
We must open the holy meditation age—calling Remnants and gifted people in our church and changing the world. No one else can do it. It is impossible work—but by God’s Word it is possible. We are building this temple.
Now the churches of the world must pray. As we seek to reach the 5000 people groups, many say, “Satan is raging,” but I do not see it that way. Only those who must surely hear the gospel will remain. Thus things do not go according to some people’s wishes. Rumors say “Immanuel Church is ruined”—that though many gathered, it all collapsed and the seats are empty. Numbers are not the issue. For true world evangelization, one disciple per region is enough. Right? Let us call those people into the three courtyards. In this way we must completely change these people—change the old things, change the bartizan, and quickly help them to see the journey of the throne. If they do not understand this, it is a serious matter. Quickly help them to see and to set up the guideposts that truly bring answers. When this becomes imprint, root, and nature, then we will send them to the world to open the holy meditation age.

Many multiethnic people will precious come. They must not merely eat meals and sightsee. There are many pastors in the 237 nations—aside from the 5000 people groups—who have done no theological study at all. We must call them, change them to enjoy the gospel. Three things: our key (main message) now speaks of three. If you do not change the bartizan, destiny does not change. If you do not find the journey, you are completely dragged by Satan—you run his errands. Only when you find this does true revival arise. Then we set up the absolute bartizan and the absolute disciples. Thus, many Remnants must decide in advance. To all the saints I bless you in the Lord’s name to restore the blessing of the three economies. Immanuel Seoul may find it difficult to hold worship now because of seating, but I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to receive even greater grace. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. This week, let us hold the accurate covenant and wait for the kingdom of God. Let us restore true answers and power. Let the greatest blessing arise that changes the bartizan within me. Lead us on the journey of the throne so that we are not dragged by the Nephilim. Make my house a guidepost. Make my work a guidepost. Make my studies a guidepost. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

▣ Introduction

Thank you.

1. What we must surely leave to and take with the next generation—only the gospel that blocks darkness and disaster and the prayer that enjoys the power of the throne for salvation

Many church leaders who are carrying out world evangelization are present here. What must we absolutely leave to the next generation? As a year passes, we should reflect. And we have many multiethnic brothers and sisters here. This is a golden opportunity—what should they take with them? It matters. Then what should our Remnants take with them? To conclude first, Israel suffered seven disasters—tragically so—and still has not realized why. There is only one answer. When our children step out into the world, they must truly take with them what the gospel is and what the prayer of the power of the throne is. If they do not carry this, they cannot overcome disaster at all. And in reality they will have no answers to prayer—because they do not know. Think about it: they do not know the gospel that blocks darkness and disaster unto salvation, and they do not know the 300% secret of prayer—the power of the throne. Therefore, as we close this year and enter the next, take this and study with it.

1) A theology that does not know the gospel and evangelism—churches closing, no seminary students, drugs, homosexuality, mental illness

Also, many pastors, missionaries, and evangelists listen to this message. Do not listen to my message—look at the Bible. Because of the mistakes of countless prophets, priests, and pastors, church doors have closed. The biggest problem is the theologians. It is not that they taught a heretical theology—they simply did not know the gospel, salvation, or evangelism. Thus churches in America are closing by the tens of thousands—this is a disaster. Europe closed long ago; the next generation does not go to church at all. For evangelists to arise, young students must go to seminary—but they do not. And are they doing well anyway? No. It is nearly all drugs and homosexuality; mental illness so severe they cannot live in their right mind. This must be stopped quickly. Even in America there are no countermeasures. How about Korea? It hardly needs to be said.

They came to church—look now. It is a miracle that these multiethnic peoples have come to our church to worship. For us to go, evangelize, bring them, train them, and commission them is hard. We must teach them only the gospel and the background, power, and prayer of the throne, so that they can survive when they go back.

2) Students who, having no answers and no strength, cannot overcome disaster

Students are suffering greatly. They have to study without strength. They may barely graduate from college, but the studies they are doing now will not match the future. They only do it because they must, but the age is changing rapidly. College life is hard—they just pretend otherwise. Lacking answers and strength, life in the world becomes even harder. One of my friends studied well but lost his mind—and he has never fully recovered. We have met such an age.

3) The disasters that befell Israel after they lost the gospel—slaves in Egypt, suffering under the Philistines, captives to Assyria and Babylon, a vassal state under Rome, and two thousand years as wanderers

When they lost the gospel, the next generation—more than once—became slaves in Egypt. Even if such a thing happened once, they should never forget, but they forgot again; and as soon as they returned, they were constantly harassed by the Philistines. Who causes this? Why are they made to forget? Another disaster came. Their children were taken captive—to Assyria, to Babylon. Not only that—upon returning they immediately became a vassal state under Rome. Nor did it end there. Israel lost their nation for two thousand years. Israel, which held many of God’s people who were to preach the gospel, lost their country for two millennia and barely recovered it in 1948, around our own Korean War. The kibbutz movement and Jewish efforts are of no use; they cannot overcome disaster. They took one-third of the Nobel Prizes—so what? More problems will come.

2. What the Jews and the churches that are closing their doors did not know

What did the Jews and the churches now closing worldwide not know? You must not be ignorant of this.

1) What the Jews did not know
(1) Original sin—leaving God and becoming slaves of Satan
In particular, the Jews did not understand original sin. Original sin is leaving God—having left Him, they became complete slaves of Satan. This was not Satan’s fault; they themselves missed it, so there was no way to resolve it. They did not know Satan’s strategies—tragic indeed. The Jews even questioned Jesus, “Why do You cast out Satan and speak of Satan?”—nonsense. Churches today ask the same: “Why talk about Satan?” They said to Jesus, recorded in Scripture, “Are You the prince of demons, that You cast out demons?” Jesus was aghast.

(2) Disaster
Worse yet, they did not know what disaster is. Things could go well, and yet disaster would strike. Our nation was under Japan and went through a single war—and how much do we still pray and consider that a disaster? Israel faced seven disasters in one year.

(3) The background of hell
Because they did not know the gospel, they did not know what the background of hell is. They knew they would go to hell—yes—but they understood it wrongly. Of course they go to hell—because they are not children of God. The real issue is that the background of their life while they live is hell. For the saved, the background while living is the throne. It is completely different.
They do not even know what a spiritual problem is. Even when the mind collapses, they have no answer.

2) The Jews’ wrong theology
The Jews’ theology and faith were wrong; theology itself became the problem.

(1) “Yahweh is the God of Israel”
Rather than obeying God’s Word, they crafted a theology and asserted, “Yahweh is the God of our Israel.” That was their theology—wrong.

(2) “The Messiah will save our nation”
Next they said, “The Messiah we await will not save all peoples but will smash the nations and save our nation.” Utterly absurd theology. They built their theology that way and taught it to their children.

(3) The doctrine of being the chosen people
They said, “We are the chosen; other nations are Gentiles.” Outrageous—it is completely contrary to Scripture, which says to save all peoples; yet they labeled all others as Gentiles—a term that originally was not positive, distinguishing chosen from non-chosen.

(4) The claim that one must keep the Law and traditions to be saved

They said, “You must keep the Law to be saved—even if you believe in Jesus, keep the traditions to be saved.” This is serious. There is no way to block the disasters coming upon them.
First, this is the fault of the theologians and many pastors, is it not? They bring disaster upon the people. Then the parents are at fault—they do not know what disaster is or how to live, and they have no strength. They barely maintain a walk of faith; then they age and marry—and meet someone similar to themselves. Similar in level. Marriage becomes harder. How long will this continue? It has nothing to do with world evangelization. When will they do world evangelization? They will not.

3) The apostles who attacked Paul, saying Gentiles must receive circumcision and keep Jewish laws to be saved

Not only that—today’s text shows another uproar. They said that Peter went into the house of Cornelius—who had been saved—and ate with him. In verse 3 it says, “You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them.” Over this, there was an uproar in the church. Peter explains at length—but they did not understand. The proof is that they kept on in the same way.

In Galatians 2, wherever Paul evangelized, the apostles were the problem—they continually attacked him. Is this reasonable? “You must be circumcised to be saved.” “You must keep Jewish laws”—they told this to Gentiles. Paul’s gospel field was the Galatian region. Even Peter came and said such things—persistently. It was strange.

3. Why Israel was ruined—the method by which Satan topples you at once

Do not be deceived. Why did this happen? Why was Israel ruined, though given the gospel? What is the biggest problem? Satan seeks to topple you—he knows exactly how to do it. He knows the method to bring you down at once.

1) Satan’s traps in Genesis 3, 6, 11—my benefit (the Garden of Eden incident), my things (the Nephilim age), “we” (the Tower of Babel)
He makes it appear he is giving you benefit—that is the Eden incident: “If you eat this, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God.” A lie. Next, Satan tells man, “You are what matters; your things matter more.” People know only “my things,” ushering in the Nephilim age. Not only that; for those slightly more “thoughtful,” it becomes “we”—we alone matter. That is the Tower of Babel—and they collapsed.

2) Satan’s molds in Acts 13, 16, 19—religion, idols, superstition, shrines

With no true way, strange issues keep arising; so people fabricated religion with their own hands—idols, superstitions, and shrines.

3) Being caught in Satan’s snare—“Satan has built a house in you” (Matthew 12); “You are of your father the devil” (John 8:44)
They are completely ensnared by Satan. You must grasp this. In our New Year’s message (won-dan) this will appear—Jesus said in Matthew 12, “Satan has built a house in you.” Frightening words. Even more frightening: “You are of your father the devil”—said to those who thought they believed well. Truly believing people heard, “Your father is the devil.”

Because they did not know this gospel, life became hard; evangelism, of course, did not happen; America’s evangelization, of course, will not happen. How can they live like that? Your work for world evangelization? Of course it will not be done. Jesus explained it: “Your father is the devil.” People were shocked.
Someone joked, “In heaven you will be surprised three times.” First, you will see someone there you thought would never come—shock. Second, someone you thought must be there is not—meaning they were not saved. Third, the greatest surprise: “How did I come to such a marvelous place?”—and you realize, “Ah, this is God’s grace.”

Know the gospel, and it is finished. We must make the Remnants know this. This is the church’s mission. Why should we pass on to the Korean church the curses Israel continually received? They make every excuse while blocking only the gospel.

▣ Main Message

I will be brief.

1. Do not give up even under persecution. The 0.1% who have the gospel blocked disaster.
First, even if there is persecution, never give up. The 0.1% who had the gospel blocked disaster.

1) Genesis 3:15—Abraham and Joseph who understood the woman’s offspring
Two people understood Genesis 3:15—“The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” The first was Abraham: “Through your seed all nations will be blessed”—spoken when he offered the blood sacrifice of the lamb, which is hard to grasp. Joseph also understood it. With this they blocked the disasters of the age.

2) Exodus 3:18—Jochebed and Moses who understood the blood sacrifice; Jethro and Rahab
Jochebed and Moses understood; Jethro, who helped, understood. On the day the lamb’s blood was applied, they escaped—on that day they came out from disaster. You cannot solve disaster by your power; only by the blood of Christ.
Thus salvation is by faith. The Jews could not accept this: “How can that make sense? These people are heretics! You must act rightly—salvation by faith? These people are mad.” But original sin is not overcome by works; it is resolved only by Christ. This must be proclaimed. Even Rahab was saved by faith.

3) 1 Samuel 7—When they forgot again and were attacked by the Philistines, Samuel offered the blood sacrifice at Mizpah
They forgot again. Though there were fourteen judges through whom the Philistines were opposed, Israel kept being attacked; disaster did not stop. “While Samuel lived, there was no war”—this phrase is tied to that day in 1 Samuel 7 when the blood sacrifice was offered at Mizpah.
It is hard to accept—blood sacrifice sounds gruesome; “the blood of the cross” is difficult to comprehend. But if we do not know this, our children die, your household collapses, and disaster cannot be avoided.

4) Elijah, Elisha, and Obadiah who understood this
Elijah and Elisha understood, and Obadiah understood. Through even one person who understands, every disaster can be blocked. You must believe this. This is the testimony of church history.

5) Isaiah 7:14—When they were ruined again, Daniel, the three friends, and Esther held the Immanuel covenant
They were ruined again. Who would do such a thing? I am certain Satan does this; his destruction is your ruin—that is why he came. So Isaiah, grieved, explained again: “A virgin will conceive and bear a son; His name will be Immanuel.” Daniel understood; the three friends understood; Esther understood. You must hold this covenant.

6) Romans 1:16–17—Paul’s confession under persecution: “This gospel is the power of God for salvation… the righteous will live by faith.”

Paul suffered greatly for this. He came from a good family and was highly educated, yet people said he was mad—because they had no spiritual sight and did not know why the whole world is as it is. In the near future, two-thirds will suffer mental illness, but they do not know. The age has become one of darkness. Even presidents have nothing to say—they do not know what to do or why this is happening. Therefore you, the 0.1%, must shine the light.

So Paul said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel. Even if you insult and persecute me, I am not ashamed. Even if I lose everything, I am not ashamed of this gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation… The righteous will live by faith.”

※ Depending on where the 0.1% are, God concentrates every blessing.

This is the first thing to remember. If you understand this, it is not that the 0.1% save others—God concentrates His blessings through them. That is the true answer. What is true revival in our church? God draws people to the three courtyards—then we must train and send them. The truly great answer is when God brings them without our even praying—how? It depends on where the 0.1% Joseph is. You must truly hold this: where the 0.1% Joseph or Moses is. Where was Paul “broken”? On the road to Damascus. Why there, of all places? Because Ananias was there. And from then on, wherever Paul—who had grasped this commission—went, God concentrated all blessings. How much you will be blessed—you will confess after the temple construction is complete. You will confess what God’s work is. Therefore hold firmly to this first point.

2. Do absolutely nothing else. Do what Christ has given.
Second, do not do anything else—do what Christ gave.

1) Seven bartizans—imprint
For 40 days Jesus imprinted the seven bartizans. Do that.

2) Seven journeys—root
He rooted them in the seven journeys. Do that.

3) Seven guideposts—nature
He caused them to establish the seven guideposts. Do that—which Jesus taught. This is the second point.

You must catch that God did everything through the 0.1% with the gospel. We do not seek blessing for its own sake; but if we do this, God will give it. We are not merchants trying to run the church as a business. But if we carry these answers, God will concentrate blessings and bring them.

What is the second point? Hold what Christ gave. In your life, the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne must be formed.

3. The person God specially prepared—Paul
Third and last, there is a person God specially prepared—Paul. You must receive this blessing.

1) Paul met Christ on the road to Damascus and settled everything (Paul was present at Stephen’s martyrdom as a spiritual witness)
On the way to Damascus, Paul met Christ and settled everything. I cannot explain it all—Paul completely resolved the answers. A note to consider: when Stephen died, Paul was there as a witness. When executing Stephen, all who agreed to his execution picked up stones and stoned him—that was the common method. Heinous criminals were crucified or decapitated, but for ordinary capital cases, they stoned. Only those who deemed the man worthy of death picked up stones. The first stone—the one aimed at the head to knock him unconscious—was crucial. The one who threw the first stone had to appoint a legal witness and hand over his outer garment; both the thrower and the garment holder were recorded. The man who took the garment was Paul. Thus he surely saw Stephen’s death. Scripture says Stephen was filled with the Holy Spirit; “the heavens were opened, and he saw Christ standing at the right hand of the throne.” Paul was present at that immense spiritual scene. That Paul then met Christ on the road and was utterly broken.

2) From then on Paul became a missionary—God attached disciples wherever he went.
From that point he became a missionary, and wherever he went, God attached disciples—an amazing thing.

3) Romans 16:25–27—To the church and people of “only gospel, only prayer,” God gave to Paul what had been hidden since eternity.

More importantly, look at the end of Romans 16, where he lists people—this is an answer you must note: “What was hidden since eternity I give to you.” Hidden and then given. The true answer is this: God hides it and then gives it. Which church will He give the blessing to save this age? To the church that proclaims only the gospel. It is not calculation—only the gospel. It is not human scheming—only prayer.

▣ Conclusion
Let me conclude. Receive this answer today, and let me close with three points.

1. Even if answers have not come, this is what you must do.
Even if answers have not yet come, this is what you must do—that is the first.

2. Even if I must die for this, I must do it—God gives the answers of “of course, inevitably, absolutely.”
Conversely, even if I must die because of this, I must do it—Stephen did so. “Because of the event of Stephen,” it says. Yet God gives the “of course, inevitable, absolute” answers.

3. God gives the 300% answers—without this, world evangelization cannot be done.
More important still, God gives the 300% answers. Without this, world evangelization is impossible.

Within this year and as you come into next year, you must hold this covenant firmly. In the second service today we will see it—but you must make this an opportunity to fully restore the three economies. While you pray throughout today, I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that the work of God’s kingdom will come even upon places you have not gone. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Open the spiritual eyes of all the saints. Many multiethnic peoples are here—let them take what is important with them. Families all over the world are hearing this message—let the true gospel be conveyed to them. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
