Message 3: The End of the Eternal Answer

Bartizan
If you are a remnant but cannot build a bartizan, you will struggle for your entire life. You must not give up—find it. If prayer is what makes you the happiest, then your bartizan has been built. If you can regain strength through prayer, then your bartizan has been built.

You must change what is imprinted. Only when what is imprinted changes can healing take place.
You must change what is rooted. Only then will fruit come forth.
You must change your nature. Only then will your destiny change. This is the leader message.

Start
Almost everyone begins incorrectly. With what must you start? You must start with only. That’s why you must never waver until only is discovered through Christ. Why is that? Because you must go where there is no one to help. Nobody. That’s why you go as the remaining one. As the one who remains. As the one who will remain. As the one who will leave behind. This is your essence. Acts 17:1—Paul foresaw far ahead and went to the synagogue to testify of Christ. If you do not properly know Christ, you cannot win.

What is the process?
The process must become the entire journey. With what? You must go with uniqueness. As long as you have this, you can go anywhere. Why is that? Because you must go where there is absolutely nothing. Nothing. If you are to save the 5,000 tribes. You are going as a pilgrim. That is why Acts 18:4—you must know what prayer is. If you do not know prayer, you will lose all paths.

What is your end? Re-creation!
What are you going to do through re-creation? You are not just the remaining one or a pilgrim—you must go as a conqueror. That content—Acts 19:8—Paul quoted what no one else dared say. Before going to Rome, he boldly explained about the kingdom of God for three months in Tyrannus. Paul was not at Mt Olive. The other disciples were at Mt Olive. They could not write these words. But you are the ones who will go.


▣ Introduction – Acts 19:8
Your background is the throne. Your answer is the coming of the kingdom of God. Your true success is the fulfillment of the work of God’s kingdom. You go holding onto these three things:

1. Synergy
2. Everybody
3. Everything

You go with this power.


▣ Main Message
From now on, do not give up. What is the mystery of re-creation?

1. Mystery
1) Regardless of age, you are the spiritual summit. You cannot teach your parents—so you are the spiritual summit. You cannot teach your teachers—so you are the spiritual summit. When Joseph became the spiritual summit, even Potiphar and his brothers had to follow. You are not studying to follow the world—you are studying to lead the world.

2) Skill summit
You must absolutely emerge from within this blessing.

3) Culture summit
Even just staying still, you become the summit of culture.


2. What is the goal of re-creation?
1) To make yourself 300%. Remnants, do not make excuses until the day you die. From now until the day you succeed, there is no excuse. No calculation. Only, uniqueness, re-creation. These three change the age.

2) Field 300%. Then people will come looking for you. You won’t have to walk around with résumés—they will come to you. You’ll get contacted from America. “Won’t you come to our country?” One remnant made their work 300%. They got calls from Japan and America. This time, the largest hotel in Arabia called them.
Do not give up. Keep going persistently.

3) Make your work 300%.
Professionalism, field orientation, future orientation.

4) Make your evangelism and missions 300%.

5) Revive your church. Prepare your church 300%, prepare to revive the church 300%.
A mother said to her son, “Don’t speak at church. Just go an hour early. Find the Bible passages in advance, pray. Then listen to the sermon. Pray with that sermon throughout the week. The evangelism you must do is earn lots of money and give offering to the church.” That son listened and built 2,000 church buildings in America. He built 24 universities. Who was he? Rockefeller.

Set a goal.
From now on, I will take the role of Gaius so that our missionaries and pastors can do mission work freely.


3. Create a commemorative landmark of re-creation.
If you make up your mind, it will happen. Decide now.

1) John 19:30 – The guidepost of Calvary
“It is finished.” But is there something that still hasn’t been resolved? That is the beginning.

2) Acts 1:3 – The guidepost of Mt Olive
Create a real landmark. For 40 days, the work of the kingdom of God.

3) Acts 2:1–47 – The guidepost of Mark’s upper room
They gained strength here, and worship came alive. This is how it must be.

4) Acts 11:10 – Antioch
The works that changed the age—when? When the crisis came.

5) Acts 13:1–12 – The first mission
Wait until you are completely led by the Holy Spirit. Wait for the working of the Holy Spirit until the Nephilim are broken. The governor became a disciple.

6) Acts 16:6–10 – To Macedonia
They thought the path was blocked.

7) Acts 19:21 – “I must also see Rome.” Acts 23:11, 27:24
Because there are 237 nations and 5,000 tribes.
“Paul, do not be afraid. You must also testify in Rome.” God quoted Paul’s words. Because Paul held onto God’s exact covenant.
“Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar.”


▣ Conclusion – Prepare for the future 300%
How do you prepare for the future 300%?

1) Become the main figures of the three courtyards.
Transform your church completely into a remnant platform. Yesterday’s English musical. Prepare for globalization. Create works.
Become the main figures of the three-day weekend age.
Become the main figures of the holy meditation age.

2) Become the death-defying team that does 24, 25, and eternity.
From now on, join hands with those who do 24. Join hands with those who do 25. Join hands with those who have the eternal covenant.
Become the remnant ministry.
There are many churches struggling without a building. Be the Holy Mason.

3) Daily three concentrations, hourly confirmations, do everything 300%
Starting today, do three concentrations daily. Confirm every hour. See the flow of making everything 300%. You must see the flow.

Remnants, from now on, do not worry about academics. Do not worry about your career. If you go, everything will come to life. Wherever remnants go, even the dead places will come alive. The secret is discovering only. A re-creation challenge that possesses uniqueness.


Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the One who solved all problems, the eternal love of God, and the present working of the Holy Spirit be with the remnants who will absolutely save the world—from now and forevermore, always. Amen!

Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)

Message 2: The Process of the Eternal Answer

You must carefully confirm the key terms this time. If you don’t, you won’t receive answers. And you won’t be able to accomplish world evangelization. You might barely survive. But we weren’t sent to this earth just to barely survive. Living just to scrape by and die? That’s not why we were gathered.

That’s why the start is important. How should you start? You are the remnants. You must become the remaining ones, the ones who remain, the ones who will remain, the ones who will leave behind. If you don’t understand this, you can never truly succeed.

There are some in the Korean church world who raise issues about using the word “remnant.” I sincerely urge you—please go study theology anew. After “Christ,” this is the most important word in the Bible: the remaining ones, the scattered ones, the sojourners. These are important terms.

When Jesus was crucified, everyone scattered. Only the remaining ones gathered. At that time, Jesus gave the method: Only!
You must find the “only” of your life. You must find the “only” in your studies. Don’t just work hard—find your “only.” Giving your best? That’s not wrong. But you don’t even have to do your best. Just find the “only.” Give your life to it? What will you give your life for? Find your “only.” Nobody!

Journey, pilgrim
You have now begun the start of the eternal answer, and there is a process for the eternal answer. You are on that journey. You are remnants, but you are also pilgrims. How does the answer of “only” come? Adults may be okay, but remnants must save the future, so you must not miss this.

How does “only” come as an answer? It comes as uniqueness.
Take this with you: uniqueness. Others will see that you have uniqueness. Carry this with you. Nothing—you must of course succeed. But you must discover the rightful, inevitable, and absolute. You cannot accomplish world evangelization with only the “rightful.” Don’t be deceived. The world does not have this.

▣ Introduction – No
Why “nobody,” “nothing”?

1. Slavery
Where did the remnants go? They were taken as slaves. This is nobody, nothing.

2. They were taken as captives.

3. They became a colony.

4. They were scattered as wanderers.

Don’t be discouraged when you go out into the world. You are already nobody, nothing. Failing because of your parents, being hurt by the church—this is the mindset of third-rate people. You are already nobody, nothing.

What’s more important is this: people have become slaves to the world. They are seized by the world. Adults say, “Money is everything.” Don’t live like that. You must say, “I don’t worry about money.” But they say, “Money is everything.” That means they are seized by the world. They are enslaved by it. That’s why they wander through the world.

That’s not all. They are slaves to Satan. They are seized by Satan. They do whatever Satan tells them. They do what demon-possessed people tell them. That’s ruin. They carry out every task Satan commands. You just need to understand the words.

▣ Main Point
1. There is a mystery of uniqueness.
1) The way
Joseph—sun, moon, and stars bowed before him. He was shown the way. The path of slavery was that way. The path through prison was that way. Meeting the king was the only path to world evangelization. Take this with you. Discover “only” and carry uniqueness.

Why worry about the future after graduation? Pastors worry: “How can I evangelize?” Is that okay? You become a church leader and worry: “How can I serve the church?” Does that make sense? Don’t believe those lies—prepare properly.

Message 1: Prayer 300% – Guidance of the Holy Spirit, Work of the Holy Spirit, Fruit of the Holy Spirit
Moses later realized why he had gone into the palace. He realized it was the way. When he re-entered the palace, he understood. At first, he didn’t get it. Joshua and Caleb realized this path early. So did Samuel and David. This is important.

2) Two types of answers
There are two types of answers. He knew what the adults didn’t. He knew what Joseph’s brothers didn’t. He knew what David’s brothers didn’t. He knew what the field leaders didn’t. This is the mystery of uniqueness. Joseph knew what the king didn’t. Daniel knew what almost no Israelites knew. In Babylon, he revealed what the king didn’t know. This is the mystery.

3) He blocked disasters.
Disasters were blocked as remnants went forth.

2. There is a process of uniqueness.
You are walking the journey.
1) Follow the path where the Triune God works
Confirm it. Even now, the Word is being fulfilled. Confirm where you are. Even now, prayers are being answered. Confirm if you are praying. If prayer doesn’t happen, your spirit is desolate. Your brain has a problem. And you want to succeed like that? Study hard? It’s all nonsense.

Even now, the work of salvation is happening. Confirm what path you are on. I realized I didn’t know prayer. I didn’t know what the Word was. I couldn’t worship. Evangelism was the hardest thing. But once I realized that, answers came. At this Remnant Conference, you must realize this. Answers will come.

Will you let your brain live like a fool? If you don’t know prayer, your brain becomes foolish. This is our path and our background.

2) The throne, the kingdom of God, the work of the kingdom of God
This is our path. When we pray, the kingdom of God and the work of the kingdom of God are fulfilled. Jesus explained this for 40 days. Churches don’t do this one thing. Why not? Why don’t they do what Jesus explained for 40 days? Do it. Everyone. The throne is our background. Then answers will come. That is the answer of God’s kingdom being established. Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness.

Acts 18:4 – That’s why he went to the synagogue. To properly teach prayer.
Acts 17:1–4 – To correctly know Christ.
To walk the journey, you must know what prayer is.

3) He removed all your past, present, and future disasters.
Christ did it. It is finished. The 3 ages. Some people are offended by this—then go ahead and receive disasters.

4) The five strengths
Spiritual strength, intellectual strength, physical strength, financial strength, manpower.

5) He gave us power to overcome the ruler of the air, power to overcome Satan.

6) CVDIP
He lets us know the future in advance. You will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.

7) The three courtyards, the three-day weekend age, and the holy meditation age
Build the three courtyards. Open the three-day weekend age. Be the main figures. Open the age of holy meditation. Discover all the things God has hidden.

3. Continuation
You must continue. Don’t be discouraged even if things aren’t happening quickly. Don’t waver because of problems. Just continue. How?

1) Enjoyment
Not just “enjoy”—but “engage.”

2) Waiting
Wait for what? For this answer to come. Enjoy it. Enjoy it through prayer. Wait, and when it comes—challenge.

3) Challenge
Take on the challenge. Where? To nobody, to nothing. On the path of remnants, everything comes to life.

▣ Conclusion
You must always do this.
Daily 3 concentrations.
Every hour—confirmation.
300% in all things.
Raise your work to 300%.

1. Edit until the Word is fulfilled.
The best way to edit: meet experts. The way to meet experts? Read books. Read 10 books a day. Read what is necessary, what gives you strength. Read what helps. Edit until it’s 100%.

When I was young, I read every book on evangelism. After reading them all, I realized the answer comes from the Bible. 100%.

2. Design by looking at the field.
Do this 100%.

3. Design
You must see the future. Design it. 100%. I read all the books on evangelism. That was the answer. I read all the books on healing and breathing. That was the plan. How many countries are there in the world? How many unreached people groups are left? I confirmed it. I designed after confirming. Is that hard? It gives you strength. It’s fun.

Remnants must raise all their work to 300%. Some start with not even 50% preparation. Some open a restaurant with not even 30% preparation. That fails. Remnants must not do that. Prepare 300%.

The Freemasons do a lot. McDonald’s. They expanded worldwide. They bake great bread. 100%. Where should they build? They research everything. How many cars pass by? How many cars stop? If they don’t stop, they won’t come in. How many people walk by? That’s how they sell bread. Even demon-possessed people can do that—why can’t we? They connect globally. If children come, they put in things kids like. In neighborhoods of older people, they provide what older people like. 100%.

It’s great to be first in your studies, but you must prepare this. Yesterday was prayer 300%, today is work 300%. Before you graduate from college. Bill Gates—he dropped out in his second year. Said he didn’t have time. Harvard gave him an honorary degree a few years ago.

Will you live your whole life just running errands for unbelievers?Will you live your life worrying about money like adults? Don’t be like that. Evangelize the world.

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, King of kings, the eternal love of God, and the work of the Holy Spirit be with all the remnants who will save the world from now and forevermore. Amen.

A Church the World Needs

Acts 4:32-35. All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales 35 and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.


The only thing that can truly unite our church in heart and mind is the gospel of Jesus Christ—His death for our sins and His resurrection for our eternal life. No strategy, program, or human effort can bring about the unity that only the gospel provides.

When the first church in Jerusalem continued to proclaim this gospel, the grace of God became visible everywhere. As a result, the believers were filled with joy and favor, and their communities were transformed. The Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved (Acts 2:47).

This same work of God can and will happen again if today’s church returns to the authentic gospel and proclaims it not with mere words but with power, with the Holy Spirit, and with deep conviction (1 Thessalonians 1:5). This was exactly what happened in the church of Thessalonica.

Though they received the message amid severe suffering, they welcomed it with the joy given by the Holy Spirit. Their lives bore unmistakable evidence of the gospel’s power. Their faith became known everywhere, and the Lord’s message rang out from them across entire regions (1 Thessalonians 1:6–8).

They didn’t merely agree with the gospel intellectually—they turned from idols, served the living and true God, and lived in expectation of Christ’s return. In the same way, if we receive and proclaim the gospel with this kind of Spirit-empowered conviction, God will move again in our generation.

The world around us is hurting and desperately needs the healing grace of God. But for that to happen, the church must rise to its calling. We must expose what Satan has done to all generations, especially our young generation—how he has confused their identity, numbed their hearts, and led them into despair. We must also confront the spiritual depravity that has spread through our culture and block the disasters and calamities that have come upon the world.

This is not the responsibility of governments or school systems. While they may play a role in shaping society, they do not hold the calling or the authority to bring about true spiritual transformation. That responsibility belongs to the church of Jesus Christ. Only the church has been entrusted with the gospel—the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes.

The Early Church understood this clearly. They embraced their divine calling to be salt and light in a dark and decaying world. They proclaimed the truth boldly, lived it out faithfully, and became a model for us to follow in every generation.

That is the kind of church we need today. A church that will remain faithful to the truth of the gospel in every circumstance. A church that is filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit. A church that places its faith in God alone. A church that will stand firm against the idols of this world. A church that will protect and proclaim the gospel until the return of Christ.


Prayer. Father, awaken Your church all over the world. Lead us back to the pure gospel. Fill us with the power of the Holy Spirit, and use us to proclaim the name of Jesus with boldness until He returns. In His mighty name we pray, amen.

Hymn
You Are My All in All
Dennis Jernigan

You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord to give up I’d be a fool
You are my all in all

Jesus Lamb of God worthy is Your name
Jesus Lamb of God worthy is Your name

Taking my sin my cross my shame
Rising again I bless your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down you pick me up
When I am dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all

Jesus Lamb of God worthy is Your name
Jesus Lamb of God worthy is Your name


Confession of Faith
The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth;
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried.
He descended into hell.
On the third day, He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven,
And is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty;
From thence, He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
The Holy Universal Church,
The communion of saints,
The forgiveness of sins,
The resurrection of the body
And life everlasting. Amen.


Scripture Reading
2 Kings 6:8-19

Now the king of Aram was at war with Israel. After conferring with his officers, he said, “I will set up my camp in such and such a place.”

The man of God sent word to the king of Israel: “Beware of passing that place, because the Arameans are going down there.” 10 So the king of Israel checked on the place indicated by the man of God. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places.

11 This enraged the king of Aram. He summoned his officers and demanded of them, “Tell me! Which of us is on the side of the king of Israel?”

12 “None of us, my lord the king,” said one of his officers, “but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom.”

13 “Go, find out where he is,” the king ordered, “so I can send men and capture him.” The report came back: “He is in Dothan.” 14 Then he sent horses and chariots and a strong force there. They went by night and surrounded the city.

15 When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.

16 “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

17 And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

18 As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the Lord, “Strike this army with blindness.” So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.

19 Elisha told them, “This is not the road and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will lead you to the man you are looking for.” And he led them to Samaria.


Message
The Main Figure of the Dothan Movement

Full Transcript

▣ Introduction: You must know the spiritual flow.
1. Satan’s strategy for destruction – idol worship (the work of evil spirits)
– The power that comes from idol worship is the work of evil spirits.
– “You will become like God.” “You will become like the Nephilim.”
– Build the Tower of Babel and succeed.
– When that fails—Acts 13, shamanism; Acts 16, rituals; Acts 19, make idols and force worship. They are continually dragged by Satan.
– Problems come: disease of the heart, mental illness, physical illness, hell, and inherited issues passed down to children.

In every age, Satan enters the heart of the king and makes them create idols and command worship.

2. Exodus 5:1–12:46. Those who realized this were used. “Moses, go offer the blood sacrifice. Destroy all the dark culture of Egypt.”

3. On Mt Carmel, during the reign of King Ahab, when the nation had turned into an idol-worshiping country, the false prophets were destroyed.
– At Mt Horeb, the word God gave to Elijah – I will change the king. The 7,000 disciples, Elisha.
– 1 Kings 19:19–21. Elisha left everything and followed Elijah at that time.

▣ Main Point
1. Acts 19:19–21. The heavenly mandate – the calling from Mt Horeb
1) 1 Kings 18:1–15. Amid crisis, the church leader Obadiah hid 100 prophets—this changed the age.
2) 1 Kings 18:25–46. Complete spiritual victory in the confrontation with false prophets
3) 1 Kings 19:1–21. God led Elijah to Mt Horeb and gave him the Word. Elisha was called at this time—called in the greatest crisis. One who was called before the covenant.
▷ Remnants must have the courage to follow the Word. If it is God’s plan, no matter how unfavorable it looks, it becomes the heavenly mandate.

2. 2 Kings 2:9–11. The calling – While others sought their position and status, Elisha did not
1) No calculation
2) No concern for position – He was not observing positions.
3) Covenantal relationship – He entered the covenantal relationship with God. “Grant me a double portion of your spirit.”

3. 2 Kings 6:8–24. The mission – At last, the Dothan Movement begins
1) Advance answers (vv.8–13) – Elisha knew in advance when the Aramean army would attack.
2) Background (vv.14–16) – Wherever you go, the heavenly army protects you.
3) Victory without fighting (vv.17–23) – The prayer of Elisha

▣ Conclusion:  Gain strength. There is a strength God has promised. He promised you would receive power.
1. Power
2. Tacit – A strength beyond understanding
3. Authority – Power that descends from above. God has promised it.
4. Heavenly, thronely, eternally
5. Trinity – The greatest promise is that the Triune God will be with you invisibly.
▷ Never be shaken. Do not be discouraged in any situation. You only need to know one thing. It is neither failure nor success. God has placed you with the purpose of world evangelization.
▷ God has promised to be with you always, to the very end of the age. He works invisibly through the Holy Spirit. He mobilizes the heavenly army wherever you are.


Forum & Prayer

WRC 2025 Leaders Retreat Lecture 4

The 28th 2025 World Remnant Leader Retreat
Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)
July 25, 2025 (Friday). Deokpyeong RUTC
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su

Message 4: Change the Nature

Message 1: Change the bartizan.
If you do not change this, you will never receive true answers in your life. Answers are not simply about eating and living. Anyone can do that. Real answers are when world evangelization arises. That is what Jesus said. If your studies are used for world evangelization, that is the best use of them. If your work is used for world evangelization, that is true success. Change this.

Message 2: Change what has been imprinted.
Only then can healing take place. Among them, the most important healing is the healing of powerlessness.

Message 3: Heal the root.
Only then will the fundamental things come alive. Even if you live in a place without a hospital, if you have fundamental strength, you will survive. Even if you live inside a hospital, without fundamental strength, you will die. You must remember this. Because you are leaders, you should not just listen to these messages, but also live them.

Message 4: Change the nature. This is changing your destiny.
Wherever the seven remnants went, destinies were changed. That blessing has been given to you. When you do this—Messages 1, 2, 3, and 4—you will begin to see something important. You will begin to possess it in advance. That is what matters. Possessing in advance. A witness is someone who possesses. A witness is one who has seen. So what you come to possess in advance is the covenant.


▣ Introduction – CVDIP
1. Covenant
You possess the covenant in advance. “Moses! Go and offer the blood sacrifice.” From the moment you receive it, works begin. “Joshua! Go to the land of Canaan. I have given it to you.” Not only do you possess it in advance, you see it in advance.

2. Vision
Seeing in advance is called vision.

3. Dream
You come to enjoy in advance. That is called a dream. Not a dream while sleeping, but a real dream. You enjoy 24. You enjoy it in advance.

4. God’s image
You conquer in advance. “I have given you the land of Canaan.” From that moment, you conquer it in advance. You haven’t even gone yet—but since it’s done by God’s power, it’s called an image. Image is the image of God. This is 25.

5. Practice
Seeing in advance, fulfilling in advance.

From now on, just go for 300% unconditionally. Joseph went as a slave. “But I’m not a slave”—no need to say that. Go 300% there. He went to prison. No need to say, “I’m not a criminal.” Go 300% there.

From this point on, something important begins.


▣ Main Point

1. The age of holy meditation begins with you.
When you do this, what is the standard? What is the standard for the age of holy meditation?

You transcend time and space. “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me—go.” The Lord of the throne will be with you—go. Since this is invisible, there are no competitors. And even if you explain it, no one believes it, so there’s no one to steal it. Be the main figure of the age of holy meditation.

1) A daily practice arises.
Start now. When you wake up, begin with prayer. Before sleeping, find the answer through prayer. During the day, confirm the answer. “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, His rod and staff comfort me. I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Three-fold concentration—do it every day. The longer, the better.
What you must absolutely remember: when you wake in the morning, recover yourself quietly and slowly. How do you pray? Breathe slowly. Your current breathing is shallow. Breathe the way you did in your mother’s womb. Then your brain and body will come alive.

So in my case, I move around while praying. Usually for several hours. Today, I woke up at 3 a.m., left at 10 a.m. I prayed for 7 hours. Meeting you is the day. This is still day. During the day, confirm God’s blessings. After you return, it becomes night—find answers. Slowly. That is your day. Then the platform, watchtower, and antenna are formed. Three answers come in advance. I preach based on that. I study based on that. You must see while praying. Daily!

2) Every hour
It exists every hour. Look at the theme song for this week. “Why am I standing here?” Ask yourself. That’s every hour. “Why am I there?” Ask yourself. “Why are these precious people sitting here?” “Why have they gathered here?” Ask yourself. During that time, do breathing exercises to revive your body. Exercise too. The only exercises I do are squats and push-ups. While waiting, I do hundreds. I never get sick. Ask: “Why am I here?”

When I came to this area, I asked, “Why did God send me here?” That question led me to purchase the entire area. “Why am I in the Gangseo area?” It’s good for flying. The transportation is great. “How can I evangelize here?” The 237 Center was born. From there, full-fledged training will begin.

Time—this is what opens the age of holy meditation.
Don’t try to create prayer time—just do it. 24. You must be doing it even now. I’m giving the message and translating. When I translate, I inhale. After that, I speak. Speaking after breathing is different from just speaking.

3) In all things
Many things happen. All of this is editing, planning, and designing. For what? To create 300%.

Become the main figure of the age of holy meditation. Enjoy the power that transcends time and space. When? Always. Wherever. Don’t schedule a time. Just do it when you open your eyes. If you really don’t want to do it, then do it for just five minutes with your eyes open. Even that is enough.

Do the age of holy meditation through leadership. Make it leadership.


2. Become the main figure of the three-day weekend age.
You must make this a lifestyle.

One day, an unprecedented and never-repeated answer will come. An answer that isn’t given to others will come to you. You’re not even living in a great area, but the unprecedented answer comes. You live in a poor country, but the unprecedented answer comes. Just become the main figure of the three-day weekend age.

1) Friday – Healing
So many people are wounded. Many suffer culturally. Many are sick. Many are poor. The hardships that come to me are so that I can receive the unprecedented answer. Never lose hold of it. Don’t listen to liars. Saying that evangelism is hard—that’s a lie. Saying, “I have no strength”—that’s deception. God promised to give power. If you don’t believe it, then this very moment, listening to this message, is the time of answer.

2) Saturday – Raise remnants as summits.

3) Sunday – Confirm the flow of the Word, prayer, and evangelism.

If you do this, an unprecedented answer will come.


3. Open the age of the three courtyards.
Actualize this.

Then what will arise? A channel of communication will arise. A channel that connects with the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes.
You don’t need to do anything.

1) Watchman
A watchman has a bartizan. What does a watchman do? “Build up the highway.” Pave the way. “Lift up a banner for the peoples.” That’s why you have been called. And when this is fulfilled…

2) A global bartizan arises.
The 237 and 5,000 bartizans will arise. The final bartizan will arise.

3) The final bartizan – TCK, CCK, NCK
Those dying in unexpected places, unable to attend school—connections will be made.

Our nation will carry out world evangelization. God promised to work. He will pour out the fullness of the Holy Spirit. He will give power. He will be with you with the authority of heaven and earth.

Open the age of holy meditation, the three-day weekend age, and the three courtyards. You are the main figures of this.


▣ Conclusion – Spiritual summit

You are young. But God has raised you as spiritual summits.
Joseph knew things that his parents and brothers didn’t know.
He went to Egypt and knew what Pharaoh didn’t know. That is this.
David knew things his brothers didn’t know.
Eventually, he knew what no king knew.
You have nothing to worry about.

What problem do you have? Do you think it’s a real problem? Change your thinking.
What did God do with these remnants? He brought every one of them before kings—without exception.
He placed them before kings and gave them the answer.
Only then could the 237 and 5,000 tribes be saved.
That communication was made. That is a remnant.

Don’t worry—just begin three kinds of awareness starting now:
You’re breathing now—but you’re unaware of it. Become aware of your breathing. You’ll be revived.
You’re thinking something—that’s the problem. Become aware of your prayer.
Ask: “Why am I here?” Be aware of it.
Even when walking, if you assign meaning to your steps, you’ll learn so much. Even climbing a mountain—if you assign meaning to it, many lessons emerge. Then a masterpiece will arise.
Be aware of these three things. Do them even now. Then God’s amazing works—the works that transcend time and space—will take place. You will receive unprecedented grace.
And you will see the door of communication opening for the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes. That is why God called the remnants.

Remnants must just hold to the covenant now. Hold to the covenant now.
In every age, God called the remnants.
The remnant movement must arise in each nation.
Remnants must rise and change the bartizan of darkness.
Change incorrect imprints.
Change wrongly-rooted foundations.
Change what has been incorrectly ingrained as your nature. That is a leader.

As you hold to this covenant and go, you only need to remember one thing: do not be deceived.
Who deceives you? You deceive yourself.
“I can’t do it.” That is deception.
“I have no background.”
“My country is poor.”
“I’m not good at anything.” That’s being deceived.
You’re deceived by reality. In the end, you’re deceived by Satan.
Don’t be deceived.

What if Joseph had been deceived when he went as a slave? That would’ve been a disaster.
He wasn’t going as a slave—he was going to Egypt.
He wasn’t going as a servant in Potiphar’s house—he was going to see something tremendous in the home of a military commander.
Did Joseph go to prison? No—he went to meet politicians.
What was that all about?
It was to open the door for world evangelization.
That’s why even when he became governor, the situation was the same as when he was a slave.

Do not be deceived.
Don’t be deceived by the devil.
Don’t be deceived by yourself.
“I have problems.” It’s not a problem.
You must remember this.

You have a great future and much blessing, but you’re deceived.
Satan deceives you: “You can’t.” “You’re no good.” That’s how Satan deceives.
That’s how people deceive.
Even your parents might deceive you: “You’re bad at studying.”
Create 300%.

Without knowing, there’s a spiritual problem flowing in your family line.
You must quickly discover it—and end it.
There is a spiritual problem flowing in your nation.
Catch it quickly and get rid of it.
“But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will receive power, and you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.”
You don’t need to worry about what you will do in the future. The answer will come.


Benediction
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and the everlasting love of God the Father, and the working of the Holy Spirit be upon all remnant leaders who will save the world, from now and forevermore, always. Amen.

WRC 2025 Leaders Retreat Lecture 3

The 28th 2025 World Remnant Leader Retreat
Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)
July 25, 2025 (Friday). Deokpyeong RUTC
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su


Message 3: Change the Root

Message 1 was “Change the bartizan.” Without changing the bartizan, you cannot do world evangelization, you cannot be set free from your family’s problems, you cannot be freed from your nation’s issues, and you cannot escape from Satan’s bartizan.

Message 2 was “Change the imprint.” Only then can you prepare for 300%. Because of old imprints, you cannot achieve 300%.

Message 3: Change the root.
You cannot change your root with your own strength.
That is why Christ gave us 7 guideposts.


▣ Introduction – Guideposts

1. Calvary (John 19:30) “It is finished.”
This is the beginning. The past, present, and future have all been finished. But I am still struggling—that itself is the answer, and that itself is the blessing. If all has been finished, then why is there a disabled person in my family? That is the start of 24. Because disability itself is 24. Why am I still poor if it’s all finished? Because I need the power of the throne.

2. Acts 1:3 – Mt Olive
The final pulpit. On Mt Olive, He gave the mission. He spoke of the bartizan of the throne, the journey of the throne, and the guideposts of the throne.
Only with this can you change the root.

3. Acts 2:1–47 – Mark’s Upper Room
Everything began here. They received experiences and power. They saw the future. They succeeded in worship. “When the day of Pentecost came”—power came. They already had the Passover, and the Feast of Ingathering—the background of the throne—belongs to us. What we must now receive is Pentecost. You must remember this.

4. Acts 11:19–30 – Antioch Church
A historic turning point. For the first time, the door of missions was opened. Paul was called here.

5. Acts 13:1–12 – The first mission field
Complete guidance of the Holy Spirit, healing of the Nephilim through the work of the Holy Spirit, and the proconsul became a disciple.

6. Acts 16:6–10
God blocked the door for evangelism. It seemed like it was blocked, but it was Macedonia. A turning point.

7. Acts 19:21, 23:11, 27:24
“You must also see Rome.” Because the 237 is there. Because the 5,000 tribes are there. Because remnants are there. “Take courage.” God quoted Paul’s own words. “Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar.” This is the 7 guideposts. You absolutely must not remain ignorant of them.

In Message 2, we spoke about the 7 journeys—this is where your imprint changes. Without changing the imprint, there is no healing. Why do people get cancer? It is because cancer is imprinted. If you change what’s imprinted, it can be healed. You must go on to become lifelong leaders.


▣ Main Point

1. Why do answers not come?
Because of the 12 strategies of Satan’s bartizan. You must destroy Satan’s bartizan.

1) Genesis 3:4–5 – The Garden of Eden
“You.” All of us hear: “You,” “Me,” “You are the master.” These are Satan’s words, New Age words. The New Age group that created all the works of America, the Freemasons who sympathize with them, and the Jews who control it all—these three organizations have taken over the world. They appear to be doing great things. If you don’t pray and only think a lot, you’ll enter Genesis 3.
“You can become like God!” “You can become Buddha!” “You can become a king!”—all the same message. Without knowing this, pastors around the world read and preach from books written by New Age and Freemasonry figures. “Find the king within you”—sounds like a good phrase.

2) Genesis 6:4–5 – They became Nephilim.
They were seized by demons.

3) Genesis 11:1–8 – The Tower of Babel
Still the same today. Let’s build a party. Let’s create power. Let’s succeed on our own. Sounds like a good message. But this is the Tower of Babel. These three continue even today. Spiritual problems only grow worse.

4) Acts 13:1–12 – Shamans
People now seek out shamans.

5) Acts 16:16–18 – Fortune tellers and rituals
People seek out fortune tellers and shamanistic rituals.

6) Acts 19:8–20 – They made religions.

7) John 8:44 – They made idols.
It becomes increasingly difficult. I thought I was the master, but Satan is the master.

8) Matthew 11:28 – Satan is my master. Satan is my father. I am a child of Satan.
This is what Jesus said. He told the Jews—those who claimed to believe—that their father was the devil.

9) Mark 5:1–10 – Disease of the heart.
Mental illnesses arise. Eventually they become demon-possessed.

10) Acts 8:4–8 – Physical diseases come.

11) Luke 16:1–31 – My background is hell.
Before going to hell, people live a hellish life.
Those who are saved enjoy the background of heaven before going to heaven.

12) Matthew 27:25 – All these problems are passed to the next generation.
Without a doubt. Because of these things, evangelism cannot take place, and answers cannot come.
Remnants must know this. All culture is based on this. Since you are remnant leaders, let me give just one example.

There is a musical created in America called Aida. I saw it twice. The lead role in the first production was a remnant. A few years later, it was performed again—and once again, a remnant played the lead. So I went. It was a good production. It moves the audience emotionally. But if you look carefully, there’s a veil. After it ends, another veil appears. And faintly visible is something—a New Age symbol. No one knows. The whole production is a New Age production. The content is good.

People seized by Satan can do nothing. This has become the culture of America, Europe, Japan, and Taiwan. They cannot escape. Naturally, evangelism cannot happen. Churches are supposed to evangelize—but they cannot.


2. Why does evangelism not take place?
There are 5 bartizans of Satan created by the church. That’s why it doesn’t work.

1) Acts 11:1–18
Peter went into the house of Cornelius, baptized him, and shared a meal.
“Why did you go into a Gentile’s home?” “Why did you eat in a Gentile’s house?”
How should Peter have answered? He should have said, “Christ told us to go to all peoples and all nations.” But instead, he explained, “I didn’t go on my own. I saw a vision, the Holy Spirit came…”
At this time, God raised the Antioch Church. He called Paul. He attached a team that understood multiethnicity.
There is a bartizan of Satan built by the church.

2) Galatians 2:10–20
Paul was preaching the gospel, and he should’ve been praised. But Peter said, “We must teach the law of the Jews.” He was the one who should’ve said, “Only preach the gospel.”
Even Simeon, and Barnabas—who went on mission with Paul—also followed the Jewish law.
That’s when Paul said, “Have we not been crucified with Christ? Does Christ not live in us?” Paul said to Peter, “Do you even know the law of the Jews? Do you keep it yourself? Then why force the Gentiles to keep the law you yourself can’t keep? Haven’t we been crucified with Christ?”
So God had no choice but to use Paul’s team.

Today, it’s the era of the multiethnic. Places like Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, and Fiji are more important than Korea for saving the 5,000 tribes. God sent them for a reason. America is important, but there are things these people can do that Americans cannot.
There are nations with no shoes. There are nations with no written language. If you go there, you could die from disease. Superstition is rampant. You hear demon voices at night.

About one-third of the people in Africa live in closed-off regions.
One-third are in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
One-third are in South America.

3) 2 Corinthians 10:4–5 – Satan’s strongholds
This is spoken to believers. Strong fortresses have been built.

4) John 16:11–14
“Money is everything.” Satan has become the ruler of this world—even in the church.
Any PKs (Pastors’ kids) or MKs (Missionaries’ kids) here—living in hardship becomes your weapon. Don’t look at money here and there. You must hate to be helped financially.

5) 2 Corinthians 4:4–5
People run after honor and position. This is what the church has become.

You must know this. There must be gospel elites—cool elites of the gospel. There is great hope. Even in this retreat, we’ve seen clean elites from Tanzania and the Oceania region. That’s good. I am truly thankful to the missionaries. The fact that they raised such good workers is the grace of God.


3. Why does healing not take place, even though healing must happen?
God called Paul’s team. Paul’s team changed the root.

1) You must heal the root.
If you have a cold, you go to the pharmacy or hospital. But honestly, even doctors say: “If you take medicine, it takes a week to get better. If you don’t take medicine, it takes 7 days.”
Same thing. Why take medicine? To prevent complications—it doesn’t cure it.
If you take high blood pressure medication, you’re not healing—you’re suppressing it.
You must heal the root. That is the Word, prayer, and breathing.

2) You must heal what has been imprinted.
Honestly, for the 5,000 tribes, you don’t even need advanced medical technology.
You can heal them with this.

3) You must heal through re-creation.
You must change their spiritual DNA. You must remember this.
Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Fiji—begin true healing ministry.
Research how it can be done.

Look at Paul.
He healed the root—through the work of the Holy Spirit!
He completely overturned what had been imprinted.
Then re-creation! “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
That is true healing. Carry out true healing.
If you can do these three things, then remnants can save the world—wherever they go.

Let me give just one example: Joseph.
Everywhere he went, he destroyed Satan’s bartizan.
Everywhere he went, he destroyed the religious bartizans of unbelief—even those within the church.
Everywhere he went, he healed the root.
He changed the imprint entirely.
Power of re-creation.
It is possible.
Only you can do it.
Only those who have the gospel can do it.
Only those who know what prayer is can do it.
Prayer moves the throne.
The power of the Word moves the throne.

Respect your elders—but do not imitate them.


▣ Conclusion

1. Bartizan of the throne
Before you study, build the bartizan of the throne.
Study with it. Study while doing it.

2. Journey of the throne
Before you enter the world, hold onto the journey of the throne.

3. Guidepost of the throne
You must succeed. But before doing that, go with the guidepost of the throne.

If you have this future within you, all things will come to you.
If the future is inside you, everything will come.
God arranges the entire schedule around you, the one who holds the future.

Message 1: Change the bartizan.
Message 2: Change the imprint.
Message 3: Change the root.
Final message: Change the nature.
These four are all you need.
Without a bartizan, there’s no watchman.
If the imprint is not changed, there’s no healing.
If the root is not changed, incorrect fruits will come.
If the nature is not changed, you will end up with a different destiny.


Prayer
We thank You, God.
Let remnants rise who will never forget and who will save the world.
Let world evangelization arise in the island nations.
Let disciples rise in the 5,000 tribes and the forsaken lands.
Let evangelism training fields arise in the broken places.
In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.
Amen.

WRC 2025 Leaders Retreat Lecture 2

The 28th 2025 World Remnant Leader Retreat
Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)
July 25, 2025 (Friday). Deokpyeong RUTC. Pastor Ryu Kwang-Soo
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su


Message 2: 300% – The Journey of the Throne

The 5,000 tribes spend about 1 dollar per month. Many of them cannot even eat properly. That’s why the question we asked in Message 1 yesterday was, can I really save them? You must make that decision.

There are remnants here from the United States, Europe, and other advanced nations. You need to open your eyes. As people age, they often face mental issues. That’s why they fall into drugs. Some even fall into homosexuality. And next door, Japan is an impressive nation. Japanese remnants—what should you be thinking? It is the most developed nation in Asia, yet it has the highest number of people with mental illness. Why is that? Can I really resolve that? Build the bartizan of the Lord. To do that, you need to find the answer to why you must study.

Korea is, in some ways, also in crisis. Over 40% of the population is suffering from depression. People don’t even know this. Why do you go to school? To study. Later, you’ll need a job. To get a job, you need to take exams. If you wait long enough, eventually you’ll end up getting married. And you end up living like that—eating and then dying. Meanwhile, the great nations of Europe, America, Japan, China are continually sinking deeper into darkness.

You just need to shine the light. But many people can’t do it. Just one person is enough. God raised up remnants for each age. So now, go one step deeper: how can I save my nation? How can I carry out world evangelization from my country? There’s something you must see with your own eyes. You only need to realize one thing.

I went into Yeongdo, Busan. No one was paying attention, no one could see it, and they had no interest. So they couldn’t see. When I went to the coast of Yeongdo, I saw something covering the rocks. It was wax—wax that had melted and dripped from candles. It hardened over the rocks. What does this mean? It means a lot of shaman rituals had taken place. Almost every island holds shaman rituals. It’s gone now, but at the entrance to the Yeongdo bridge, there used to be a line of fortune tellers. All the churches there are small. They are barely surviving. Because they are barely surviving, world evangelization feels too far away. So when I entered Yeongdo, I began to analyze. There was a massive building representing Yeongdo. That’s Tenrikyo. It’s a landmark of Yeongdo. It’s about 2,000 pyeong (approx. 71,000 square feet). I registered there, like a member, to see what they were doing. Mostly, they focused on healing. As soon as I got to Yeongdo, that was the first thing I did. That’s when I began full-fledged healing ministry.

You must change everything that has been imprinted in you.

▣ Introduction – Imprint
You must change what has been imprinted in America. It’s spiritual. I’m talking about spiritual things. Change it. This is possible through prayer. To do this, from now on, do not worry about studying.

Prepare for 300%. How do you prepare for 300%? Bill Gates opened his eyes in his freshman year of college. He decided to move the world through computers. By his sophomore year, he had prepared 300%. As history began to unfold, he dropped out of Harvard. What he created overturned the world. That’s 300%.

Steve Jobs had a thought: “What if I could put the world inside a phone?” Everyone said he was crazy. “I can fit the whole world in it!” And he did. As a student, he prepared for 300%. Don’t worry about studying. If you don’t prepare 300%, even if you study, it’s difficult. Korea has no power—so what do you do? You must overturn what has been spiritually imprinted. Paul did this. Paul overturned this. Spiritual power is infinite.

How do you prepare? It’s not hard. It’s much easier.
When I was in school, I made a resolution—what I would do in the future. I resolved to carry out true world evangelization. I fully prepared for evangelism. Then I had to evangelize in the field, so I fully prepared for the field. What would I need going forward? A system. I thought about the system for meeting you all. I prepared 300%, and as soon as I started, works began to take place. As soon as I entered Yeongdo, works arose. This is 300%.
Remnants, you only need to understand. But to change your imprint, what must you do? How do you change it? You walk the journey of the throne.

The core of the entire universe is in your head. The antenna that moves the world is with the throne and in your head. Those who know this know what prayer is. That’s why you pray through the 7 journeys.

7 Journeys

1. The Triune God
The Triune God is fulfilling three works even now. You walk on that path. You go through prayer. Believers lose hold of this and don’t know what prayer is. Remnants could change everything through prayer, but they can’t even pray.

2. The 10 secrets
There are 10 secrets through which you will absolutely survive.

3. The 10 complete platforms

4. The 5 assurances

5. The 9 flows

6. The lifelong answer emerges
It comes through prayer. Remnants who discover this will absolutely save a region and a nation.

7. All of life is a camp
Even being here is a camp. Joseph becoming a slave—that was camp. Joseph going to prison—that was camp.

Remnants, just listening is enough. When I was your age, I had these thoughts. I made plans—what I would do. I made a schedule. I never once followed it. Now what kind of answer have I received? This is my current schedule. I didn’t make it. A few people make it for me. When I go to worship on Sunday, they give it to me. On the left side are my assignments and tasks. On the right side is the schedule. Several people make it and bring it. I carry it around all week. What does this mean? What you truly resolve now will truly become your answer.

Important figures came from Fiji and Tanzania. You must open your eyes quickly. You can’t even go to the 5,000 tribes, but Tanzania is a nation that can influence one-third of them. Nations like Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, and Fiji are nations that can exert great influence over the Oceania islands. If you just know this, works will arise.

In America and Europe, people are not prepared as vessels for saving. At the end of your life, there’s no need to compete. If you are prepared, they will come to you. Competition is something between equals.

Examples of two remnants: Joseph and David. They had no rivals. Many say David versus Goliath was a difficult battle—but no. If David fought Goliath 100 times, he’d win all 100 times.

They had a bartizan. Change your bartizan. Because they had the bartizan, they walked this journey. Then 300% emerges. At that time, within the 7 journeys, a crucial talent arises.

▣ Main Point
1. Make your academics 300%.
1) Talent – The talent you’ll pursue your entire life will arise.

2) 7 important secrets emerge.
When that emerges, read books. Don’t read a lot. Read the essential, the empowering ones. There are books that must be read thoroughly. Only read what you need. Then find your answer in the Word. Study historical figures. Find your answer in Christ. And for world evangelization—for changing the bartizan—you must study the festivals. Japan has many festivals. You must study them. And you must change them. America has many festivals. The Itaewon incident—what kind of event was that? It was a festival event. It was a demon-worship festival that led to death. Because people don’t research these things, they can’t find answers. At the very least, you must know what prayer and worship are. You must know about the Passover, Pentecost, and the Feast of Ingathering.

Then three things emerge from this: specialization, globalization, and evangelization!
You walk the path of the power of the throne. There is power. This is the answer. Joseph becoming a slave and then a governor—that’s not the answer. That’s the process. The answer is the transformation of his imprint.

Then three things emerge. You’ll succeed academically. You’ll see “only.” Even if you’re in Africa, the one with “only” wins. Then comes uniqueness. Then re-creation. Do this. Make your academics 300%. Only, uniqueness, re-creation will come. Don’t worry.

One remnant heard the message and followed it exactly. He was from Hana Church. He decided, “I will become a chef. I will be a chef who saves lives.” He made that decision at your age. He sent a letter to the CEO of the biggest hotel in Daegu. “Please hire me. I will become a chef.” Through that, he went to Japan. A Japanese chef was moved. He didn’t call the Japanese but called this remnant and gave him materials. He returned to Korea. Not just anywhere—he was invited by a successful conglomerate to run a restaurant. When I visited the restaurant, I was shocked. At the entrance it said, “We do not accept walk-ins. Reservation only.” Only those with reservations can enter. No one else is admitted. Politicians, celebrities, and entrepreneurs dine there. He was just sitting, and he got called to Hawaii. He went. Now during this short vacation, Saudi Arabia is calling him. I told him, “Go.”

Prepare for 300%. Don’t worry.

2. Make your occupation 300%.
You will get a job or pursue a career—how do you make that 300%?

1) WIOS
2) OURS
3) There is a field flow in the journey.

3. Make evangelism 300%.
1) Acts 13:1–4 Don’t move until you are completely led by the Holy Spirit.
Even Jesus said in Acts 1, “Do not leave Jerusalem.” Person, place, task.

2) Acts 13:5–11 Healing the Nephilim.
Who will heal the culture of darkness? Who will heal the Nephilim created by the three organizations? Who will heal the deeply rooted Nephilim in Japan? The one who realizes.

3) Acts 13:14 The proconsul becomes a disciple.
1st Camp, 2nd Camp, 3rd Camp. That’s evangelism.

4. Make missions 300%.
1) It must align with the 237 nations.
2) It must align with the 5,000 tribes.
3) It must align with TCK, CCK, NCK.
The 5,000 tribes, Muslims, and unreached cultural groups.

In your era, 2030–2080, if it doesn’t align with this, nothing will work. Even more so in that time. Stay alert. Everything you see now will disappear. Banks? Blockchain will overtake them. Hospitals? You won’t need to go anymore. That age is coming. Everything will be done remotely—consultation, prescriptions, everything. You won’t even be able to get a job. Robots will do everything.

Even now, in restaurants, robots come. They are precise. So spiritual problems will increase even more. You must save the church. You must now prepare to be proper church leaders.

5. Make the church 300%.
1) Acts 17:1–4 You must know Christ accurately.
Churches aren’t thriving because people who don’t really know Christ are living out their faith.
The Christ before creation—if you don’t know this, nothing can be solved.
The incarnated Christ, the resurrected Christ, the returning Christ, the Christ who will be the Judge.

2) Acts 18:4 You must know what prayer is, what worship is.

3) Acts 19:8 You must know what the answer is—God’s kingdom.
You just need to find what you absolutely must do.

▣ Conclusion – Prepare the vessel.
Prepare a large vessel. Most vessels are unprepared.
America isn’t doing what it needs the most.
What is Japan’s most urgent need? They’re not doing it.
What is most needed in those underdeveloped nations? What does Vanuatu need most? That’s what you must create.

Open the three ages.
The three courtyards, the three-day weekend age, the holy meditation age
All you need to do is organize the message. That’s right. Even just saying “Amen” is enough. This kind of chance is before you. When the Word comes upon you, works begin. You are leaders. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that you will hold to the greatest covenant. Let’s give a round of applause to the Triune God who will fulfill world evangelization.

Prayer
We give thanks to God.
We thank You for calling leaders who will save the world.
Open our spiritual eyes.
Let us become the main figures who change what has been imprinted.
In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.
Amen.

WRC 2025 Leaders Retreat Lecture 1

The 28th 2025 World Remnant Leader Retreat
Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)
July 24, 2025 (Thursday). Deokpyeong RUTC
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su


Message 1: Build the Bartizan of the Throne of the Lord

You are leaders. There is something you must first do in Message 1 today. Can I really carry out world evangelization? You must confirm this and make a resolution. Today, some have come from Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands. Is world evangelization possible in places like these? You must decide. You must find and take it with you.

Many have come from the United States. Is America carrying out world evangelization? No, it is not. In fact, it’s doing worse than Vanuatu or the Solomon Islands. Why is that? You must quickly confirm and decide.

Japan, the most advanced country in Asia—are they carrying out world evangelization? Why not? America, Japan, Europe, and Korea are affluent countries. Why do they have so many people suffering from mental illness? You must quickly confirm and decide.

There are also pastors here. You must ask real questions and make decisions. Can our church save the region? If it can, then it must. You must save your region. You must confirm and decide regarding that today.

Young remnants with a future are here. Can I save my family line and region? You must not neglect your family line. But is it possible to save it? The seven remnants confirmed this. They made a resolution. World evangelization took place.

Your circumstances may be good, but mine were very bad. My home was struggling, my church was struggling, everything was difficult. We barely made it. I confirmed it. Why was it like that?
I made a resolution. The answer came. I began world evangelization. That’s what I’m telling you to do.
This time, you must take with you the four things leaders must never forget for the rest of your lives.

Build the bartizan of the throne of the Lord. This is the answer.
For 40 days, Jesus spoke about the kingdom of God. That is the bartizan of the throne. I concluded everything with this.

If you don’t understand the bartizan of the throne, two problems will come. Studying becomes difficult. You can’t avoid it, but it also doesn’t go your way. You studied, but then one day, spiritual problems come. Can your teacher tell you that? If I have spiritual problems, can my parents tell me? Can they heal me? You’ll suffer your whole life—useless suffering.

Jesus said, He explained about the kingdom of God for 40 days, and He said, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you.” Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth—witnesses.
I made a resolution. Without this power, my own ability is not enough. The adults are precious, but they can’t do it with just that power.

Someone I know well graduated from the best university in Korea. He passed the bar exam as a youth. He passed while attending university. Brilliant, amazing. Became a judge before even marrying. Became a presiding judge at 31. Then a member of the National Assembly. Incredible. But he only gets paid about 10 million won a month. He can’t do world evangelization.

Problems came. He left this world without doing world evangelization. How regretful would it be if you leave without doing a single thing God desires?

What remnant leaders must not be deceived by is this: a different bartizan has entered you. What bartizan? What you learned at school, what you saw at home, what you saw from friends, what you read in books—all of that is in you. I have no spiritual strength at all. I just go to church, but I’m like an unbeliever, even less than an unbeliever. Realizing this is realizing prayer. What is prayer? It is moving the power of the throne. This has entered me as a bartizan.

You are not young. Joseph’s brothers talked about food. Joseph spoke about world evangelization. Different. Others just wanted to survive in the wilderness or Egypt. But Moses talked about Exodus. It’s different.

Message 1 is about understanding what prayer is.
Prayer is building the bartizan of the Lord within me.
It is possessing the bartizan of the throne.

To imprint this—this is truly heavenly, drone-like. If this bartizan is within me, then studying becomes easy, discovering your talent becomes easy. No need to ask, “What should I do in the future?” The answer already comes. The adults have been made so that they don’t know this part at all.

Don’t worry about studying. That’s outdated. What is studying? It’s discovering what God gave me. If you don’t even know that and just try hard—what’s the use? Without spiritual strength, you can’t win. You can’t do world evangelization.

Prayer is moving the throne.
Prayer is transmitting the power of the throne.

If you know this, then you are a leader. I must build the bartizan. Without a bartizan, a watchman is unnecessary. You only need a doctor if there’s a hospital. Build the bartizan of the Lord. At your age, it’s enough to just understand this. That’s the strength of remnants. No matter how much you explain to adults, they won’t understand. But remnants, just hearing “Oh, that’s how it is!”—they understand.
To enjoy this blessing, there are a few things you must confirm.

▣ Introduction – Confirmation
1. Important start
The start must be important. You must not go down the wrong path. No matter how outstanding, the wrong path is still wrong. No matter how much your parents love and care for you, if you’re going down the wrong path, that’s not it.

Wherever you go, there are problems, trials, and conflicts. Crises will come. What thoughts do you have at those times? That’s “you,” and that becomes your future.
When the seven remnants faced such things, they had a clear identity and power to change them. You must remember this. You must confirm this. My family has problems? Then I am the watchman to change my family. Whether it works or not, you must at least hold to the covenant correctly.

2. Accurate covenant
You must not be deceived if you want to hold the accurate covenant. “Our family can’t do it. I can’t study. We’re poor. We’re powerless.” That’s true. But if that’s all, then you’re eliminated. That has nothing to do with this power. When the seven remnants saw these things, they held to their mission.
How much your life will be used is revealed when problems, trials, conflicts, and crises come. Whether you’re a great person or not is revealed in such times. Whether this person is truly blessed by God is revealed in those moments. You must remember this your whole life. Wherever you go, there will be problems, conflicts, and trials. Is there a place without them? No.

A young man in America went for counseling. He asked, “Is there a society without problems or conflict?” The doctor answered, “Go to a cemetery.” If you die, there are none. When you grab hold of the mission, the accurate covenant becomes visible.

Among the seven remnants, Joseph received the accurate covenant. Everything turned into answers. He went as a slave. Was he ruined? He was falsely accused and went to prison. Was he ruined? One day, he became governor. Was that success? No. That’s the level of someone who hasn’t received salvation. “A problem came, I succeeded.” That’s not it. If it’s not world evangelization that breaks down darkness, then it’s not success.

3. Prepare the vessel
From that point, you prepare your vessel. You may be young, but spiritually you are a president, a king.

You must hold this in your heart. Then comes the important main point. So what is the answer? What is prayer? Then what is the answer?

▣ Main Point – Answer

Change the bartizan. This bartizan must be changed. It must be transformed. True prayer is when the bartizan that moves the throne is established within me. What is the answer? It is changing the wrong bartizan.
This is the strategy Satan gives. It must be changed. No matter how much you do, the knowledge of the world is a field that keeps you from knowing God. You study to save the world, not to follow the world. You must be resolved from the start. Decide from the beginning.

I was deeply scarred. Why are there diseases, poverty, incompetence, inability to evangelize? I changed it. From now on, remember this: changing the bartizan is the answer.

1. Now
When do you change it? Now. When do you receive the answer?

1) Every day
I begin praying the moment I open my eyes in the morning. I gain answers when I go to sleep at night. In between, during the day, I gain answers. Three concentrations.
Then the bartizan of the throne is established within me—platform, watchtower, antenna are established. Three settings. Now, wherever I go, I bring answers to problems, conflicts, and crises. Three answers.

Remnants must remember. When you wake up in the morning, pray for more than 5 minutes. That’s enough. Before going to sleep, pray for 5 minutes. In the day, when it’s difficult or tough, recover strength.

I don’t stop there. When I wake up in the morning, I pray for hours.

Remnants must save three things: spirit, brain, and body.
How do you save them? Through prayer.
Remnants, just breathe deeply and pray for 5 minutes. You will save your brain. Since you are people of the Holy Spirit, the bartizan of the throne comes upon you.

2) Every hour
Every hour, focus on three things: the fulfillment of God’s Word, the actual answer to prayer, and 5 minutes of exercise every hour.
You can do it while sitting in class. You’re sitting in a chair—just lift your hips off for 3 minutes and it becomes a tremendous exercise. No one notices. If you push up from the edge of your chair for just 2 minutes—through breathing, your brain and body are revived, and while praying, your spirit is revived. Use this to change your bartizan. It will come without fail. You are elites, leaders to save the world.
You don’t need to set separate time for exercise or prayer. 24, 25, eternity.

3) In everything
In all things, do editing, planning, and design. You don’t need to do it all at once.
Edit so that God’s Word is fulfilled, plan so prayer is answered, design so the field comes alive.

You must make this a habit. This is the habit of elites and world-moving leaders.

Editing, for me, is done through books and the answers come through the Word. Planning involves observing the field and events. Design is discovering what’s absolutely necessary right now in the field. Even if I don’t find the answer, just asking that question. Leaders, don’t miss this. The answer is now. When does it come? It’s bound to come.

Pastors must move the world with this power. Pastors must do this constantly from the moment they wake. Restore health.

2. Worship
Change your worship. This answer, this bartizan is changed during worship.

1) Acts 1:3
For 40 days, He spoke about the things of the kingdom of God. During that time of listening, all bartizans were changed.

2) Acts 2:1
Ten days—when the day of Pentecost came. Everything changed at that time. If you worship properly, that’s the end.

3) Acts 2:17–18
The future becomes visible. Young men and old men will dream dreams and see visions.

4) Acts 2:42
The apostles’ teaching—flow of meetings; breaking of bread—flow of salvation; prayer—flow of prayer. There’s nothing else to do.

Don’t worry even a little. With the studies you’re doing now, it’s not enough. 300%. What is 300% anyway? I’ll tell you tomorrow.

5) Every day in the temple, every day in the home
God’s Word is fulfilled in my studies. You don’t even have to try to be a witness. You become one because the answer comes. Remnants, don’t lose strength. I am a witness. My childhood was so miserable that I can’t even testify about it. I am a witness. That’s when the bartizan is overturned.

3. Change with what Jesus Christ gave
In prayer, continuously enjoy the 777 given by Christ.

1) Transcendence of time and space arises.
You pray here, and your family in America experiences God’s work.

2) Connection to the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes
I only prayed this prayer, but remnants rise in Australia, Vanuatu, and the Solomon Islands. Even more will arise.

3) Unprecedented and never-repeated
No one can take it away. This is the answer. This is changing the bartizan.
Prayer is enjoying the bartizan of the Lord.

▣ Conclusion
Always enjoy the five concentrations.

1. 40-day concentration
Try the 40-day concentration that Jesus did before important moments.

2. Worship concentration
Acts 2

3. Daily concentration
You are summits.

4. Hourly concentration
Remnants, pray and exercise no matter what in between moments. If you don’t understand this, your brain will never revive. Once revived, you must save others with the power of the throne.

5. Concentration in everything
When this happens, something important will follow. What follows?
Only, uniqueness, re-creation
This will arise.

You must make your decision again.
Can I carry out world evangelization in one region? My country is powerless—can I do world evangelization? The age of multiethnicity is coming. The age of Africa is coming. The era of island nations is coming. It is bound to happen.
Remnants are leaders, so you must not miss any of the four messages this time. Don’t worry about the future. You will succeed, so prepare what comes after.

Prayer
We give thanks to God.
We praise the God who has called us as leaders.
Let us build the bartizan of the throne.
In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.
Amen.

WRC 2025 Lecture 1

The 28th 2025 World Remnant Conference
Theme: The Start, Process, and End of the Eternal Answer (Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8)
July 30, 2025, BEXCO, Busan, Korea
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su


Message 1: The Start of Eternal Answers

How can we carry out world evangelization? Before that—how can we even receive answers? What kind of strength must the remnants carry? What is most important? The start. The beginning is critical. Most people begin incorrectly.

Most people start off wrong. But the 7 remnants of the Bible began correctly. No matter how talented you are, if your start is wrong, you’ll go down the wrong path. No matter how prestigious your academic background is, a wrong start leads to a wrong life. On the other hand, even if you lack credentials, if you begin correctly, the right answers will come. Of course, studying well helps. Going to a good university helps. Everyone knows that. But have you ever seen a valedictorian from Harvard evangelize the world? That’s expected, but it’s not the true answer. You need to find the answer now. Did I succeed through hard work? Sure, that’s necessary. But that’s not the answer.

What should I do from now on?

In America, mental illness is rampant. In Asia, Japan ranks first in mental illness.

▣ Introduction – Nobody
You must start from the position of nobody. There’s no one to help? No, it’s that you don’t need help. Decide this now: you do not need help. More accurately, human help won’t help. Did Egypt help? Did Israel’s leaders help? No—they didn’t. Don’t go down that path.
Why nobody?

Why do we listen to sermons? To hear God’s answers, to understand God’s will. That’s why we listen to pastors’ messages.

Why take the path of nobody?
Because something must change—your destiny.

Many remnants came from Oceania. Change the fate of Oceania, which is under darkness. Let the light shine. Change the dark destiny of your family line. Change the destiny of the Korean churches that are closing and unable to evangelize. That’s why you must become nobody.

Why did Israel face disaster? Because of people. That’s why nobody is the answer.

Paul foresaw the age of wanderers and began something in preparation. He knew destruction was coming and held onto something from the start.

Acts 17:1–4 – When he went to the synagogue, what did he explain? Christ. That is the answer. Christ is the One who changes destiny. Christ is the truth that blocks disasters. Christ is the life that shines the light.

“I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” Who is Christ?

1. The name hidden before the ages
If you don’t know this, you cannot resolve original sin. Genesis 1:26–27 says, “Let us make man in our image.” Who is “us”? The Triune God. Christ was present at creation (John 1). If you don’t understand this, you cannot break your family’s curses. You cannot save Oceania, Africa, or the 5,000 tribes. Why? Because Christ is the light (John 1:11). When the light enters, darkness flees.

2. Christ who came in the flesh
If you don’t understand this, you cannot receive salvation (John 1:12). Is evangelism difficult? Once you understand this, doors open. Saying there are no answers to prayer—that’s a lie. Don’t listen to lies. Don’t be deceived. Adults may say helpful things, but don’t be deceived. Respect teachers, but their teaching cannot lead world evangelization. School is to save the world—not to follow it.

3. Christ who resurrected
You must know this to pray in His name: “What I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” In Christ’s name, Satan is bound.

4. Christ who will return
You must know this to see the future. Don’t worry about the future—that’s what unbelievers do. God has perfectly prepared your path.

5. Christ who will judge
You must know this to understand eternity.

This is the Christ Paul preached—why He had to die on the cross and why He had to resurrect. The name that changes destiny. The name that drives out darkness. Jesus Christ. Don’t lose hold of this. A pastor who does not know this value will never evangelize. A church officer who does not know this value will never receive answers until death. Remember: change destiny. Shine light to the 5,000 tribes. Cast out darkness. Change destiny.

▣ Main – Only
So what should we do? This is the method remnants must hold onto: Only. Jesus said it. Remnants’ method is only. Go with this. Study with this strength.

1. The work of “Only”
Genesis 3:15 – “The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” Christ will break Satan’s power. This is history. When you hold to this, light shines and destiny changes.

As soon as I knew Christ, doors to evangelism opened immediately. No more questions—answers came just as the Word was fulfilled. Now, remnants are rising all over the world. Drive out darkness. Change destiny.

Make your decision today.
I decided at your age. Jesus is the Christ. God is the Creator. Why should I live in poverty? Why be powerless? Why live sick and die doing nothing? That’s wrong.

God is the God who answers. Change your family line. Let remnants arise and change the darkness.

Exodus 3:18 – Deliver people from darkness. That’s Only. Nothing else will work.

Isaiah 7:14 – Restore Immanuel.
When they were captives, history happened. What kind of history? Not success—this is basic. Kings were moved. They were brought there to save the 237 nations. To save the 5,000 tribes taken as slaves in Babylon.

They didn’t understand, so they became a Roman colony again.

Matthew 16:16 – “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
That’s the work of Only. Jesus then said, “You are Peter; the gates of Hades will not overcome you. I give you the keys of the kingdom.”

Romans 1:16–17
Because Paul knew the age of wanderers was coming, he said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel.” For it is the power of God for salvation.
People called Paul crazy. “That well-educated man lives like that?” Paul said, “The righteous will live by faith.” The world turned upside down. Light! Take this to heart. Luther quoted this. The world turned upside down.

2. The background of “Only”
Jesus Himself said this.

1) The Triune God is our background.
Though unseen, He works now—by the Spirit, the Word, and salvation. Don’t be deceived.

2) Jesus explained the throne for 40 days.
That’s Only. I have no prayer topics. Enjoy this—it is finished.

3) The three ages
Past, present, future—He removed all disasters.

4) The 5 powers
He will give authority.

5) Power to overcome the ruler of the air
That’s the power—Ephesians 2:2. To overcome the one who rules the air.

6) He will reveal the future in advance – CVDIP

7) You will become the main figures of the 3 courtyards, the three-day weekend age, and the age of meditation to the ends of the earth.
You will become the main figures. This is your background.

Only!
When you see Only, you’ll know what to do. You’ll succeed. Don’t worry about school.

My friend in college was #1. So diligent. But I didn’t need to be #1. College was 4 years, grad school 3 years—7 years of evangelism prep. That’s what I prepared. Who gained more? No need to ask.

3. The method of “Only” – Way
1) Limited concentration
The method is concentration. Try it—Only.

2) Selective concentration
Don’t do other things. Focus on what Christ gave you.

3) Oneness concentration
Save everything. That’s the method. Don’t forget.

▣ Conclusion – Make your prayer 300%
Begin with prayer—make it 300%. Answers will come unconditionally. Don’t be shaken.

1. Do this every day
When you wake, pray for at least 5 minutes. I pray for hours. In the afternoon, confirm answers. At night, find answers in quiet prayer. 3 concentrations. Then answers will come. You become a platform. Your studies become a platform. People will come. No competition—we just shine the light. Watchman. When they come, give them this content. Antenna. That’s 3 settings.

When problems come, you go with the answer. In conflicts, you go with renewal. In crises, you already have the answer. 3 answers.

When you wake, pray for 5 minutes. 777 prayer. Pray slowly with deep breathing—your brain will come alive.

During the day, breathe from your lower abdomen. Just sit, strengthen your core. Breathing becomes deep. Health. At night, don’t move—pray deeply.

2. Confirm every hour
Even now, the Word is being fulfilled. Even now, someone is waiting for salvation. Confirm it. I check every hour. Take notes. Exercise for 5 minutes anywhere, anytime.

3. Make everything 300%
You will surely win. Even if you graduate from a small university, if you have this, people will come. Don’t worry about studies. Even if you’re valedictorian at Harvard—without this, you’ll have to go job hunting.

How do you find 300%?
Joseph became a slave. But there, he did 300%. Don’t just be a slave. He was falsely imprisoned—but that was to meet politicians. 300%. He became Prime Minister—to save Egypt, his family, and the world.

From now on, relax. Enjoy 300% of your prayer. Don’t worry about studies. Graduation, employment—those alone can’t fulfill world evangelization. Can’t even feed you. Adults chase money every day until they die.

Be a spiritual summit first. You are spiritual summits. Be confident. You may not yet be leaders, but you are spiritual leaders. Not a president—but a spiritual president. Not a king—but a spiritual king. Break the forces of darkness.

Let’s give a round of applause to the Triune God.

Prayer, We give thanks to God. Open our eyes so we are not deceived. Let us hear Your Word and not be fooled by human speech. Let us see Your method, not be misled by man’s ways. Let our lives be for world evangelization—not food, clothing, and shelter. In Jesus Christ’s name we pray. Amen.

The Risen King and His Church

Revelation 1:12-20.  I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and among the lampstands was someone like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hair on his head was white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, and coming out of his mouth was a sharp, double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.

17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. 18 I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.

19 “Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later. 20 The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.


The resurrected Christ reigns as the sovereign Lord over His church throughout the world. He has entrusted His church with a single, eternal mission: to proclaim the gospel to all nations until the day He returns in glory.

To fulfill this task, He has given His church the only message that can save the world—the gospel that Jesus is the Christ, as foretold from Genesis 3:15 through Exodus 3:18, Isaiah 7:14, and clearly declared in Matthew 16:16. This gospel is not a human idea but the fulfillment of God’s plan of salvation from the beginning.

He has prepared His church to carry this message of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:20). They are not delivering mere information; they are ambassadors of Christ, pleading with the world on God’s behalf.

He has also provided the absolute method to reach every nation: making disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Triune God, and teaching them to obey everything Christ has commanded (Matthew 28:18-20).

Even now, the risen Christ works tirelessly with His church from His throne, confirming His word with accompanying signs (Mark 16:20). He is not passive or distant. He is actively engaged in every part of His church’s mission.

John’s vision in Revelation reveals Christ walking among the seven golden lampstands, which represent the churches. He holds the seven stars, representing the leaders of the churches, in His right hand. He has full authority over the power of darkness and commands angelic hosts to speak to and protect His church. He encourages, warns, corrects, and strengthens His church to this day.

Jesus is deeply involved in His church. He holds His servants in His hand and walks among the churches with sovereign authority—holding the seven stars and walking among the lampstands (Revelation 2:1). He is the First and the Last, the One who died and came to life again (Revelation 2:8). His rule is eternal and unshakable.

He governs His church through His unchanging Word as the sharp, double-edged sword (Revelation 2:12). This Word discerns, pierces, and transforms. It exposes the motives of the heart and brings life where there is death (Ezekiel 37:1-14, Hebrews 4:12).

He also appears as the righteous Judge.  He is the Son of God whose eyes are like blazing fire and feet like burnished bronze (Revelation 2:18). He sees the spiritual reality of each church and addresses it with truth and justice. He refuses to allow compromise with the assembly of Satan (Revelation 2:9).

He knows the deeds of His church (Revelation 3:1). He sees beyond outward appearance and reputation. A church may appear alive but be spiritually dead. No human accomplishment or religious program can fool the all-knowing God. He does not measure success by numbers or buildings but by truth and obedience.

A church that loses its saltiness is like salt that has lost its flavor—useless and trampled underfoot (Matthew 5:13). When the church compromises the gospel, conforms to the world, or loses its spiritual distinctiveness, it can no longer fulfill its purpose to preserve truth, proclaim Christ, and shine light in darkness. Only when the church remains rooted in the gospel and empowered by the Holy Spirit can it retain its saltiness and carry out its mission as the salt of the earth.

We must remember that Jesus possesses absolute authority over His church. He holds the key of David (Revelation 3:7). What He opens, no one can shut; what He shuts, no one can open. He opens doors for the gospel and closes the doors to falsehood. When the church acknowledges His sovereignty, the gates of hell will not prevail.

Jesus oversees His church with faithfulness and truth—He is called the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation (Revelation 3:14). Just as He has always been faithful, He desires His church to be faithful and true to Him. He counsels with patience, warns with compassion, and disciplines in love.

He rebukes not to harm but to restore (Revelation 3:19). His correction comes from love, not anger, with the purpose of leading His church to sincere repentance and renewed devotion. Like a father disciplines a child he delights in, Jesus desires His people to turn from apathy and return to Him with wholehearted faith. He wants His church to know His heart for the world—that none should perish but all come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4). Through repentance, the church recovers its identity, renews its mission, and shines the light of the gospel once more.

A church God desires is one He remembers and honors for its work produced by faith, its labor motivated by love, and its endurance sustained by hope in the Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 1:3). This is a church whose every action flows from a deep trust in God’s covenant, whose service is driven by sincere love for Christ and others, and whose perseverance is anchored in the unshakable hope of His return. It stands as a living testimony of Christ to the world.

As Jesus loved the church and gave Himself up for her, we too must love the church with all our heart and mind. We must pray for our spiritual leaders, support one another in the mission field, and keep our eyes fixed on the global task. The world is desperate to hear the good news that Jesus is the Christ. Let us move beyond the boundaries of our local congregations and denominational lines. Let us unite as the body of Christ to carry out the Great Commission He has entrusted to us.


Prayer. Lord Jesus, watch over Your church and cause us to arise and shine the light of the gospel to all nations. In Your mighty name, Amen.
