The 237 Nations and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (26)
Bartizan 22 of the 3-day Weekend Age
Scripture Reading: Acts 2:42
Communication between the young and old generations is often difficult. But those who are truly destined to receive answers can communicate. Ordinary people often cannot have deep conversations with their parents and children because of many differences. But those who will receive answers are able to communicate with their parents. You must remember this. If you have a conversation with someone who is destined to be blessed, you can have deep conversations.
From God’s perspective, God speaks to those who are destined to be blessed. During our university gathering in America, there were many meetings, and an important message was delivered. That message meant that the time has come for God to give important answers in America. God said to Abraham, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?” The living Word of God comes to us first and is fulfilled.
[Worship – Everything] (Acts 2:42)
Therefore, today the greatest theme for our workers and church leaders is that we must receive everything through worship. It is Acts 2:42.
▣ Introduction
1. Where?
One of the important messages given this time was, “Confirm where you are.” That is everything.
1) 7·7·7
And I must be inside what Christ has given me. This must be confirmed.
2) Satan’s bartizan
Unknowingly, Satan’s bartizan has entered within us. That is why things do not work. That is why spiritual illness comes.
3) God’s bartizan
Therefore, change it to God’s bartizan. I must be within this. That was the first lecture.
2. Meeting
Then, who am I meeting? This is very important. Naturally, you meet people you are close to. Many will think, “Oh, that person is talented,” and try to get close. That is normal. Even unbelievers do that. But I am not talking about that, nor is the Bible. You must have a true evangelist next to you. That is the person I am talking about.
1) 24, 25, eternity
Simply put, it is a meeting aligned with the 24-hour, 25-hour, and eternal time schedule.
2) 5 flows
There are surely 5 flows. Within those flows, meetings must take place.
3) Evangelist – Remnant
There are many other things, but this is the blessing of meeting evangelists and many remnants.
3. Future
What future are you preparing?
1) 300%
Of course, you must prepare 300%.
2) Re-creation
Not just 300%. We must enjoy the blessing of re-creation.
3) Monument
You must leave behind the blessing of a monument. That was this lecture. Today, we must go one step further. We must be within this.
If you find yourself saying, “I see I am inside this (Satan’s bartizan),” of course! If this is not resolved, there is no need to even use words like answers come or don’t come.
When a true evangelist, without any ulterior motives, comes to me and has spiritual communication, that is the real thing. God broke down Paul while passing through Damascus for one reason: because there was Ananias in that town. You understand, right?
God does not do things randomly. He has an eternal plan for everything. We are within the blessing of this age and monument, so I must be there.
Today is the conclusion, the application. This lecture is not just about “find it” or “be there”—you must absolutely be within it. This must be checked.
One of the blessings I received is that wherever I go to church, there is no reason behind it. Having a reason itself is incorrect. Why would there be a reason? There is God’s covenant, so there is no reason to be discouraged by anything else. Just devote yourself according to the church’s circumstances. If they say do it, do it. If they say don’t, don’t. That’s all. Within that, there is another hidden secret.
Wherever I go, I meet true evangelists. Not people mobilized by some ulterior motive, but real evangelists. I have met them everywhere I went. Those people say they want to learn from me, but that is not it. I received grace through them. I was shocked. I didn’t say it, but I was shocked. They were everywhere—in every church. So, I did evangelism with them. I received tremendous grace. Without grace, I couldn’t have done it.
When this takes place, one thing comes out.
▣ Main point – Worship (Blessing, Solution, Future)
It is worship. When this (introduction) takes place, worship becomes the greatest blessing. Naturally. When this takes place, worship solves all problems. And you see the future. There is no need to wander when your future is clear. When your future is certain, there is no need to worry.
Let’s look at some Bible passages.
1. Acts 1:1-8
Acts 1:1-8 is Christ’s final pulpit message. Here, the bartizan, journey, and guidepost were introduced, and three things are seen.
1) Transcending time and space
Worship time is a time that transcends time and space.
2) 237-5000
It has already come and will come—the blessing of 237 nations and 5,000 tribes.
3) Unprecedented and never repeated
Why must I be here? It is unprecedented and never-repeated. Of course, we must work hard. But that is not the standard. It is unprecedented and never-repeated. We must participate everywhere, but that is not the standard. It is unprecedented and never-repeated.
2. Acts 1:11-14
They came down holding onto this covenant. Here, too, three things are transcended.
1) Environment
They transcended the environment. If you focus on the environment, you die. It is too hard.
2) Persecution
They transcended persecution. Even though persecution came.
3) Limitations
They transcended their own limitations.
Yes, the environment is hard, persecution comes, I have limitations, but they transcended all of it. This is prayer and worship. “They all joined together constantly in prayer.”
3. Acts 2:42
At this point, this finally appears. What comes out during worship? Four major things appeared.
1) 5 flows
“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching”—this is the five flows. Should we give worship properly or not? The five flows. They are precisely different.
2) Meeting
“Fellowship”—the blessing of meetings. People who are not saved judge others. No need to judge. The blessing of meeting. They say the situations were different, but they were the same. In the early church, people came secretly. If they came openly, it was dangerous. But they came anyway. How would they feel? They were so happy. They grabbed each other’s hands and wept. That was the early church. Isn’t the situation worse now? Spiritually, the environment forces you to be completely separated, yet you came following the gospel.
3) Joy of salvation
“Breaking bread”—they had the joy of salvation every day. But we don’t have the joy of salvation. Why? Because we just received it. Breaking bread every day.
4) Power of prayer
The power of prayer. “They devoted themselves to prayer.”
This happened on the Lord’s Day.
4. Acts 2:17-18
And what especially came out through worship? The future. What kind of future?
1) Prophecy
“They will prophesy”—this is the Word. It means they saw it beforehand and spoke.
2) Vision
“They will see visions.”
3) Dream
“They will dream dreams.” This is worship. They came to worship, and the future became visible. They gained assurance. So what came? Dreams came. They saw far ahead. They saw visions. These amazing things happened.
5. Acts 2:46-47
Finally, “Every day, in the temple courts and from house to house.”
1) Home – Children
“From house to house” means it is necessary for others, but the Word fulfilled in the temple was fulfilled in the home—for the children. This is most important. That your children can hear the Word at home is crucial.
Another blessing I received, thankfully, was my mother. She never spoke ill of others. If she spoke, it was praise. If she spoke, it was to help. And always with faith. It wasn’t forced—we could feel it. There is a difference between something forced and something genuine. Even when I lacked faith, I felt, “My mother truly has faith.” Because I lacked faith, I sometimes thought, “She’s a bit naive.” But that wasn’t true. It all came to fulfillment. In the home.
People who do not receive answers all have something in common. I learned all the negative information during the district worship at our home. I was young, but I heard it all. Maybe I was more sensitive than others—perhaps because I was good at studying. I could learn faster. After worship, the real content came out—all kinds of unbelief. I heard it all as a child.
Thankfully, my father, though he lacked faith, lived strictly by principle. Never committed even the slightest wrongdoing. But that was tough too. It was hard. He lived exactly by the rules. Wake up at 4 AM. He would wake me up. It drove me crazy. In hindsight, it was tremendous training, but at the time, it was overwhelming. He could have said it nicely, like, “A man must be a morning person.” But instead, “Your father’s up at dawn, and you’re still sleeping? Get up, you rascal!” It was like that. After he left, my mom would say, “Go back to sleep.”
All those things were a tremendous education. It became my nature. So, this phrase “in the home” is very important.
2) Field
It didn’t end there. It was fulfilled in the field.
3) Evidence – Witness
That’s how we became witnesses. The early church experienced all these works through worship.
▣ Conclusion [Confirmation]
When you worship, there are things you must confirm again.
1. Answer
Even now, tomorrow too, the place where you are seated—that is the answer. You don’t think so? Want to try lying in a hospital bed? The fact that you can worship is the answer.
2. Today – Future
Today is your future. No other worries. The Word you receive now will be fulfilled.
3. Eternity – Today
More importantly, what God promised for eternity is here today. During worship today. People don’t feel this. Isn’t that true? The promise of Christ made before creation is now here for us. The eternal Word of God, which will last forever, is now within us. You must not lose hold of this in worship.
Therefore, tomorrow, with a heart of connecting everything to the three-day weekend age, pray and receive great strength. Think that an unseen bartizan is being built.
Even if you are in difficulty, if you are praying, it is the time when a bartizan is being built for you, just as Moses, who suffered for 40 years in Midian, had his bartizan built.
When you look at the church for the sake of the truth, sometimes it feels frustrating, and you face hardships. That is the time when a bartizan is being built.
There are many hardships around you in America. But if you endure and remain within the covenant, the bartizan is already being built. If you receive grace, living in America becomes your greatest mission and blessing. Because, even without doing anything, the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes will come to you. There is no greater blessing.
If you remain within this (introduction), the real thing will come to you. Most are fake, but we can’t tell who the real ones are. But if you stay within this (introduction), it is fine.
If someone betrayed me, I would never stumble. Why? It’s only natural. That person is like that—it’s only natural. Through that, God’s plan is fulfilled. Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus, but God’s plan was fulfilled.
One time in Busan, there was a related incident. Elder Kim Kwang-Il, who served as a chief judge and lawyer, was asked by an international newspaper in Busan to write a column. He wrote about Judas Iscariot, expressing that because Judas betrayed Jesus, the covenant was fulfilled, and we were saved—something to that effect. That church was already fighting, so influential people who opposed Elder Kim stirred things up and filed a complaint, accusing him of praising Judas.
But Elder Kim, being a former judge and lawyer, knew how to fight legally. He proposed to have professors of Korean literature, unbelievers, evaluate whether the article praised Judas or condemned him. Six professors judged that it was not a praise of Judas. That church always fights. Not a single person there receives spiritual blessings. They have a lot of knowledge, but it’s useless.
Let us pray.
Prayer
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, King of kings, the infinite love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit be with God’s people who are within eternity, from now and forevermore. Amen.
