Hymn
Jesus Is the Christ!
Jang-hee Lee
One day it came to me
That Jesus is the Christ of God
On that day you showed me
That Jesus is the way, truth, and life
When I believed that I am in Him
And He is within me
All Satan’s power that once controlled my life
Like a wave, rolled away
As long as I have life on earth
I will shout it to the world that Jesus is the Christ
Until I have very last breath
I will tell it everyone that Jesus is the Christ.
Jesús es el Cristo
Un día comprendí
Que Jesús es el Cristo de Dios.
Ese día me mostraste
Que Jesús es el camino, la verdad y la vida.
Cuando creí que yo estoy en Él
Y que Él está en mí,
Todo el poder de Satanás que antes controlaba mi vida,
Como una ola, se alejó.
Mientras tenga vida en la tierra,
Gritaré al mundo que Jesús es el Cristo.
Hasta mi último suspiro,
Le diré a todos que Jesús es el Cristo.
Scripture Reading
Genesis 3:1-7
Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Génesis 3:1-7. La serpiente era más astuta que todos los animales del campo que Dios el Señor había hecho, así que preguntó a la mujer:
—¿Conque Dios les dijo que no comieran de ningún árbol del jardín?
2 —Podemos comer del fruto de todos los árboles —respondió la mujer—. 3 Pero en cuanto al fruto del árbol que está en medio del jardín, Dios nos ha dicho: “No coman de ese árbol ni lo toquen; de lo contrario, morirán”.
4 Pero la serpiente dijo a la mujer:
—¡No es cierto, no van a morir! 5 Dios sabe muy bien que cuando coman de ese árbol se les abrirán los ojos y llegarán a ser como Dios, conocedores del bien y del mal.
6 La mujer vio que el fruto del árbol era bueno para comer, y que era atractivo a la vista y era deseable para adquirir sabiduría; así que tomó de su fruto y comió. Luego dio a su esposo, que estaba con ella, y él también comió. 7 En ese momento los ojos de ambos fueron abiertos y tomaron conciencia de su desnudez. Por eso, para cubrirse entretejieron hojas de higuera.

The Fundamental Problem of Man
Many people are suffering from serious problems with no solution. These problems never disappear but only continue. Only the Bible reveals:
1. The incident of the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3:1-20)
Every problem started from this incident. Tempted by Satan, humanity left God. They could not hear God’s word and instead listened to what Satan said. This is the Genesis 3 incident, and it is still happening today.
2. The incident of the Nephilim (Gen. 6:4-5)
The incident of the Nephilim occurred during the time of Noah. Nephilim means being possessed by evil spirits. It means being seized by Satan.
3. The fallen tower of Babel (Gen. 11:1-8)
The incident of the Tower of Babel occurred. In Genesis 11, they built a tower to challenge God.
These three incidents continue to happen even now. Because of this, diseases of the spirit, heart, and mind occur.
1. The fundamental problem of man: the appearance of sin and Satan.
1) Ezekiel 28:12-14 Satan was an angel created, full of wisdom and glory.
