The 237 Nations and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (42)
– Bartizan 36 of the 3-day Weekend Age –
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:8
I bless you in the name of the Lord that today may be the beginning for our Anyang and for our people of work across the nation and the world to gain great strength.
How can we gain strength? In our country the Korean War (6·25) broke out and hardships arose. We were a nation so difficult that it became world news. But God changed our nation into a nation that carries out world evangelization. The suffering you undergo—God will surely turn it into blessing. Surely. For those who face great hardship, it only takes time, but God gives great answers. None of the developed nations thought our country would stand in the ranks of the world like this.
The problem is that when we suffer hardships, it is so difficult that we become sick there and suffer even more difficulties there. In our country, the church rose at the most difficult time. There were many revival meetings everywhere, and a revival movement broke out. Also, in between, politicians arose in our country and lifted up our nation. Many professors, teachers, such scholars, and businesspeople did not lose heart and worked. Though they themselves had no fault, our Anyang World Mission Church has now faced some great difficulty. Do not worry; you must surely find the great blessing God has prepared. Check again. In Scripture and history, those who faced great hardship later came to know—because it was too great. God gave great answers.
How can it be that one is seized by human traffickers, how can it be that one goes to prison? That is our thought. God prepared him as the prime minister to carry out world evangelization. The issue is that Joseph knew that. This is important. Joseph’s brothers did not know. So they thought, “What shall we eat?” “Why are you treated well?” “Why do you wear good clothes?” That was the thinking of Joseph’s brothers. Joseph was different. He made that confession when he became the prime minister: “It was not you who sold me.” Though they sold him. “God sent me ahead to preserve life.” He said this. That means Joseph knew it while going as a slave. It means he knew it while going to prison under false accusation.
So we must not remain trapped in such difficulties, problems, conflicts, and crises, but first we must find the answer, the opportunity, and renewal. Why?
The title that people of work must hold today is not “the three-day weekend age,” but Friday Healing Concentration. All pastors, saints, and remnants must hold this, but people of work must hold it.
▣ Introduction_ The gate of the world
Because this concentration becomes the gate of the world. You must surely remember. We do not have time to agonize over various complicated problems. We must find it. Here are the reasons.
1. Advanced nations – depression, mental illness
What is the most common disease in advanced nations? The most common disease is depression. Mental illness. It is the most common. They do not even know the term “spiritual problem,” and yet this is the most common disease in advanced nations.
2. Developing nations – 100% critical patients
What is the current state of developing nations? You can see it like this: 100% are critical patients. Truly. Presidents, prime ministers, speakers of parliament from island nations—these are high-ranking people. They are people who nevertheless receive some benefits. Without knowing, they came to Korea for a missions conference. It was not something they requested. We—already I sensed it and told them first to get physical examinations. Every single one was a critical patient. They are living almost miraculously. Seeing the president, the hospital said, “How did you get on the airplane in this state? So when you return, do not get on the plane. Be treated and then go. If you fly back, you could lose your life.” Think about it. Visiting Korea and then dying on the plane? That would not be an ordinary incident. Why must we open the era of the 5,000 tribes? When we called the children and trained them, they brushed their teeth for the first time since they were born.
It is urgent. We do not have time to be seized by such worries. There is no reason to spend time talking about others or telling lies.
3. Israel (believers) – something else (wrong things)
So what is even more serious is Israel. Simply put, this speaks of our believers today. How is it? They are running errands for these (advanced nations). And they are doing other things than what God truly desires. This is the characteristic of the Jews. When God gave the gospel of salvation and gave the covenant, what did they say? “The LORD God is our God.” When He said He would send the Christ to save the world, they said, “The Messiah to come will crush other nations and establish our nation.” Even realizing something “other” brings frightening results, but they realized something “wrong.” From the start He said to carry out world evangelization, but they said, “We are the chosen people; you are Gentiles.” Needless to say, it became like this. They cannot help but be sick.
Therefore, on Friday, our people of work and church leaders—indeed, even if not Friday, Saturday or any day is fine—set a date and concentrate. You must surely do it.
▣ Main Message _ Root healing
What should we heal first? Begin root healing. Who will do it? We must do what God desires. Yet we choose only what God said not to do—worrying, unbelief, using humanism, slandering, condemning, fighting, dividing. Are you the offspring of Satan? God heals the root.
Our Anyang World Mission Church, I truly hope you will gain strength. If you stake your life, there is nothing that cannot be done.
I have thought like this. One day, though I had no time to go, I attended the funeral of a member of our church. Even conducting one service is hard for me, but for this person I even went to the burial site. There I realized something suddenly. A person who had been walking about normally is now lying down, placed in a coffin, and lying down in the ground. Then the firstborns cover it with soil. As I watched quietly, I thought, “There is no eternal truth—doesn’t everyone become like this?” At that moment a thought came. At that time I was under persecution. “In fact, if I were lying here, wouldn’t that be the end of worldly things?” Right? “What would I regret?” Right? If you lie down like that, worldly things are over. What should we cherish, what should we do? Are we so afraid of the attacks from the side? That thought came suddenly. “Yes. Only the gospel.” It was the early days then, and God raised many works. From that day until now, though it was nothing, God did not allow me to be sick or weary even for an hour—He had me run.
Elders, church leaders, people of work—you must surely do this.
1. Healing of destiny
First. You must begin with healing of destiny. If destiny has not changed, what use is effort? What you have is not the gospel.
2. Healing of religion
You must give healing of religion. You must. When the multiethnic people come, how many things are there for them to fix! Leaving all that and saying, “Receive answers”? What answers will they receive? It is urgent. You must help them with God’s Word. There is no time to say all this; Sundays are even busier. So I mean: make time. That is, do Friday healing. To me you hear explanations, and pastors hear a sermon, but when you hear the sermon and search the Word to confirm it, works arise.
3. Healing of life
You must help quickly. They must receive healing of life. How can someone trapped in the past see the future? How can someone in scars save the world? Right? They are filled with nothing but scars. How can such a person carry out world evangelization?
4. Healing of diseases
After that comes the body. Healing of diseases.
5. Spiritual healing
And what is last? You must give spiritual healing.
Pastors should also open a Friday healing festival—we did it last week. Put elders, church leaders, and people of work in the lead so that we can intensively heal and help many people like this. When this is realized, works arise. We must do it, but we do not know the reason we must do it. Right? That is what is wrong. We must do it. The multiethnic—those who are the “gate of the world”—have come, and they are all caught in everything here (the main message).
So, we did not use some tactic on them. If we do not help these people, they cannot be helped—this is the present. Then these people truly received realization in their hearts. They are sincere. They are truly thankful. What is so amazing is this: “Thank you for making us understand the gospel.” Then there are those in that country who, while never preaching the gospel, block it—these people came as missionaries and attacked us about what is ours. The president of that country, by law, made a decision: “If you want to say that from now on, leave our country.”
Leaving such pitiful people just as they are—what answers do we think we will receive?
1. Healing of destiny (1:1–8)
1) Christ (John 14:6)
Apart from Christ, destiny does not change. “I am the way and the truth and the life.”
2) The throne (background)
And we have the background of the throne. Right? Jesus explained it.
This is Acts chapter 1, verses 1 to 8—today’s Scripture. It did not end with that.
3) The Holy Spirit (power)
He works by the Holy Spirit. This means He will give true power.
Christ changes destiny. Destiny must be changed. The throne is our background. We must help them to believe this surely—because it is certain.
“Is only Christianity the truth?” You yourselves can search and see. “Is Jesus the only Savior?” Later they will attack like this. Confirm it. I believe so. Confirm it. I said to a Buddhist monk, “I have confirmed it so.” And I spoke the truth: “The painful spiritual problem you are hiding will never be solved.” He confessed it: “Only Christ.” The monk confessed: Only Christ. It must be fixed. Destiny must be changed.
2. Healing of religion (11:1–8)
Even after being saved—look again—they speak nonsense. We must heal religion. “Is it right to eat in Cornelius’ house, a Gentile’s house?”—they speak such nonsense again.
1) The past
What is it? We are caught just as we were in the past.
2) Tradition
We are caught just as we were in tradition—not the gospel.
3) System
That became a system and we are caught in it. Going forward, you must look to the works of God, and though the past and tradition are important, you must completely surpass them.
3. Healing of life (1:8)
Acts 1:8 has the answer. Heal your life. How?
1) Only
Only. Do not worry about other things. Only. In a sense, do not even ask that a disease be healed. Only. Then who heals? The Holy Spirit works.
2) Uniqueness
3) Re-creation
Uniqueness, re-creation—this is healing of life.
4. Healing of diseases (3 John 1:2)
From then on, what about the rest? Healing of diseases follows. You must listen well to the doctor. But there is an order.
1) Soul
“As your soul prospers”—spiritual power must arise first.
2) In all things
In all things, God’s works—
3) Health
—to be in health.
(Root healing)
What is most important? Do root healing. If the root is not healed, no matter what you do, only the doctor suffers. Your blood pressure is high? You must make it so that the blood pressure does not rise. Right? The root. Taking medicine is not healing; it is first pressing it down. Isn’t that right? It must not rise. To do that, you must heal the root. I exercise every hour. Every hour. Why? I do not have time to go exercise. I cannot put it into practice. “Oh well,” every hour. Otherwise, you cannot control blood sugar. Controlling it with medicine? That is doing what the doctor tells you—healing the urgent matter. You must do root healing.
5. Spiritual healing
1) 1st camp
After that, spiritual healing occurs. In spiritual healing, what is our life’s first camp? You must tell them. Because the Holy Spirit is with you, being led by the Holy Spirit is your first camp.
2) 2nd camp
By the work of the Holy Spirit, your disease can be healed. The spiritual disease you have—the doctor cannot heal it. He cannot heal that Nephilim disease. Therefore, the Holy Spirit must work. This is now the second camp.
3) 3rd camp
More important is the future. You must prepare—the fruit of the Holy Spirit. The third camp. You must surely do this for them.
So always, do not just listen to the pastor’s sermon, but listen to the Word. Right? The pastor is a spokesman; it is not the pastor’s words. Do not listen to my words. Check the Bible. If you do not do this, your very life will not work. Not working, and yet you do something diligently? Try it.
▣ Conclusion_ [ Fundamental power ]
What is the conclusion? It is not only to heal the root. Gain fundamental power. Among you there may be those with difficulties in work, studies, or occupation. What should you do?
1. The fundamental, the basics, the foundation
Do the fundamental, the basics, the foundation—300%. It is because this is not in place. Do it. “Something does not go well for me”? Do not hold what is wrong and suffer; enter here. From what I see, among our Korean athletes you know Son Heung-min well. I think this friend may be able to go a bit longer. Why? Because there is something he does several hours more than other players—this (the fundamental, the basics, the foundation). He confessed that when he was young, after he had already suffered and trained all day, his father took him out again and made him train for three more hours. Sometimes he felt like he would die. Yet he was made to do it again.
It is a similar expression, but when we say the fundamental is not in place, it means the spiritual state is somewhat not in place. In the same sense, when we say the basics are not in place, we are speaking somewhat of posture. Right? And when we say the foundation is not in place, it means the skill is somewhat lacking. Make these 300%. Without doing this you keep saying your business does not work, something does not work. That is not so. Do not be deceived. Because God has called you for world evangelization, truly begin.
2. The 12 regions
Pastors may say the church is difficult, it is not growing, and be worried, right? Find the 12 regional golden fields. This is what Jesus left behind. There is only one thing Jesus uniquely left behind. Right? The regions of the 12 disciples and the 70 church leaders who followed under them. He left only that.
3. Every day, every hour, in everything
If there are sick people here, you must respect and listen to the doctor. But the doctor will speak accurately and leave anxiety within you. Why? Because doctors do not know that what we think becomes imprinted in the brain and soul. And the doctor cannot say “There is no problem” when there is a painful place. Right? If the condition is not good, he must say it is not good. A doctor cannot tell a small lie, “It’s only a little bad; it’s okay.” Therefore, when I gain spiritual strength, what happens in the body? The worldly people cannot know this.
So you must gain strength every day. You must gain strength every hour. You must gain strength in everything. 300%.
Especially for our elderly, even more so. “Oh dear, I am old.” No. If we cannot open the era for those who are older, it will be a serious problem. That is why they call it the 100-year era; it will truly become so. Going forward, you will want to die but not die. Then should we not prepare countermeasures? Right? We must find what God gives.
I bless our Anyang World Mission Church and our people of work and church leaders across the nation and the world to gain strength in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.
Prayer. May the grace of Jesus Christ, the Lord of all, and the infinite, eternal love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit who gives the power to save the world, be with all the saints of our Anyang World Mission Church, with the people of the Lord who attended this place today, and with the people of work and church leaders around the world who hold the covenant, from now to eternity, always. Amen.
