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’?”

²The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, ³but 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.”

⁶When 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. ⁷Then 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—. ³Pero 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”.

⁴Pero la serpiente dijo a la mujer:

—¡No es cierto, no van a morir! ⁵Dios 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.

⁶La 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. ⁷En ese momento los ojos de ambos fueron abiertos y tomaron conciencia de su desnudez. Por eso, para cubrirse entretejieron hojas de higuera.

Message
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.

2) Isaiah 14:10-14 He became corrupt and desired to become like God.

3) Revelation 12:1-9 Satan was hurled down with his angels.

4) Genesis 3:1-6 He deceived mankind, forcing them leave God.

5) Ephesians 2:1-2 He makes mankind, dead in their transgressions and sins, his servants, making them follow him and the ways of this world.

6) 2 Corinthians 11:14 He masquerades as an angel of light, deceiving mankind.

7) 1 Peter 5:8 He prowls around like a roaring lion looking for people to devour.

8) Judges 9:23 Evil spirits make mankind fall into animosity and conflict, and treachery.

9) 2 Corinthians 4:4-5 Satan blinds the minds of people so that they cannot see the glory of Christ.

10) Acts 16:16-18, Mark 5:1-10 Demons and legions of demons enter mankind. Mankind perishes from spiritual problems.

11) Ephesians 6:11-12 Satan uses schemes and took rulers, authorities, powers of the dark world, and forces of evil under his control.

2. Ways Satan brought Adam and Eve to destruction.

1) Genesis 3:1 He used the serpent that was close to Eve.

2) Genesis 3:1 He created resentment regarding God’s Word through negative framing.

3) Genesis 3:3 He took foothold when Eve was not holding accurately to God’s Word (Genesis 2:17) as the covenant.

4) Genesis 3:4 Satan deceived Eve with lies. (John 8:44 “father of lies”)

5) Genesis 3:5 He planted a conceited heart that they could be like God.

6) Genesis 3:6 Adam and Eve were mesmerized by the fruit and ate it. This was the disobedience to God’s Word.

7) Genesis 3:7 As a result, their spiritual eyes dimmed and their physical eyes opened.

3. The Consequence

1) Genesis 3:16-20 They were separated from God, suffering from all problems and difficulties.

2) John 8:44 They became children of the devil.

▣ The only solution: Christ

1) Genesis 3:15 He promised that the offspring of the woman would crush the head of the serpent.

2) Genesis 6:14 He promised that those who enter the ark will live.

3) Exodus 3:18 He promised liberation upon the blood sacrifice.

4) Isaiah 7:14 He promised Christ of Immanuel.

5) Matthew 16:16 (1 John 3:8) That Christ came and destroyed the work of the devil.

Galatians 2:20 From now on, everything is changing. You died on the cross. The resurrected Christ lives within you. Repeat this until it is imprinted.

Philippians 3:20 Your background is the throne. You need this power. That name is the name at which all things must submit.

2 Corinthians 12:1-10 Enter into prayer so deeply that you no longer even think of the “self.”

El Problema Fundamental del Hombre

Muchas personas están sufriendo problemas graves sin solución. Estos problemas nunca desaparecen, sino que solo continúan.

9) 2 Corintios 4:4-5: El dios de este mundo ha cegado la mente de los incrédulos.

6) Génesis 3:6: La desobediencia se consumó por el deseo físico y visual.

7) Génesis 3:7: Sus ojos espirituales se cerraron al estado de pecado.

3. La Consecuencia

John 1

Leader: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
People: He was with God in the beginning.

Leader: Through him all things were made;
People: without him nothing was made that has been made.

Leader: In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
People: The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Leader: The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.
People: He was in the world, and though the world was made through him,

Leader: the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
People: Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God

Leader: children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will,
People: but born of God.

Leader: The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory,
People: the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Down at the Cross
^{E. A. Hoffman}

Down at the cross where my Savior died,
Down where for cleansing from sin I cried,
There to my heart was the blood applied;
Glory to his name!

Glory to his name,
Glory to his name;
There to my heart was the blood applied;
Glory to his name!

I am so wondrously saved from sin,
Jesus so sweetly abides within;
There at the cross where he took me in;
Glory to his name! [Refrain]

Oh, precious fountain that saves from sin,
I am so glad I have entered in;
There Jesus saves me and keeps me clean;
Glory to his name! [Refrain]

Come to this fountain so rich and sweet,
Cast thy poor soul at the Savior’s feet;
Plunge in today, and be made complete;
Glory to his name! [Refrain]

Scripture Reading
Genesis 45:1-5
^{Carmetta Williams}

Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Have everyone leave my presence!” So there was no one with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers. ²And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household heard about it.

³Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still living?” But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence.

⁴Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.” When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt! ⁵And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.

We Will Keep Our Faith Alive!
^{Don Besig · Nancy Price}

Gathered here, within this place,
We can share in God’s redeeming grace.
There’s no room for doubt or fear;
We can feel His presence here.
As we face each passing day,
We will serve and honor and obey;
And if hope should start to dim,
We will know our trust is in Him.

And we will keep our faith alive,
God will always be our guide.
Through the darkest night,
We will see God’s light.
We will keep our faith alive!

We will live as God has planned,
Though at times we may not understand.
Many things we may not see,
But our faith will help us believe.
From His Word we learn the truth;
Through His love we all are born anew.
With His help, we will not fail
For we know our God will prevail. Chorus

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
^{Robert Robinson}

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing;
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,
Mount of God’s unchanging love!

Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I’m come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.

O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let that grace now, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart; O take and seal it;
Seal it for thy courts above.

Since Jeus Came into My Heart
^{Rufus H. McDaniel}

What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought
since Jesus came into my heart!
I have light in my soul for which long I had sought,
since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jeus came into my heart,
since Jesus came into my heart,
floods of joy o’er my soul like sea billows roll,
since Jesus came into my heart.

I have ceased from my wand’ring and going astray
since Jesus came into my heart!
And my sins which were many are all washed away,
since Jesus came into my heart. [Refrain]

I’m possessed of a hope that is steadfast and sure,
since Jesus came into my heart!
And no dark clouds of doubt now my pathway obscure,
since Jesus came into my heart. [Refrain]

There’s a light in the valley of death now for me,
since Jesus came into my heart;
And the gates of the city beyond I can see,
since Jesus came into my heart. [Refrain]

I shall go there to dwell in that city I know,
since Jesus came into my heart;
And I’m happy, so happy, as onward I go,
since Jesus came into my heart. [Refrain]

Scripture Reading
Genesis 37:1-11
^{Carmetta Williams}

Jacob lived in the land where his father had stayed, the land of Canaan.

²This is the account of Jacob’s family line.

Joseph, a young man of seventeen, was tending the flocks with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives, and he brought their father a bad report about them.

³Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age; and he made an ornate robe for him. ⁴When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.

⁵Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. ⁶He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had: ⁷We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.”

⁸His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.

⁹Then he had another dream, and he told it to his brothers. “Listen,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”

¹⁰When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come and bow down to the ground before you?” ¹¹His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.

I love to Tell the Story
^{Kate Hankey}

I love to tell the story
of unseen things above,
of Jesus and His glory,
of Jesus and His love.
I love to tell the story
because I know it’s true.
it satisfies my longings
as nothing else can do.

I love to tell the story!
‘Twill be my theme in glory
to tell the old, old story
of Jesus and His love.

I love to tell the story;
more wonderful it seems
than all the golden fancies
of all our golden dreams.
I love to tell the story;
it did so much for me,
and that is just the reason
I tell it now to thee. [Refrain]

I love to tell the story,
for those who know it best
seem hungering and thirsting
to hear it like the rest.
And when in scenes of glory
I sing the new, new song,
’twill be the old, old story
that I have loved so long. [Refrain]

Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!
^{Reginald Heber}

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee.
Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea.
Cherubim and seraphim, falling down before thee,
Who was and is and evermore shall be.

Holy, Holy, Holy! though the darkness hide thee,
Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity.

Isaiah 65

Leader: See, I will create
new heavens and a new earth.
People: The former things will not be remembered,
nor will they come to mind.

Leader: But be glad and rejoice forever
People: in what I will create,

Leader: for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight
and its people a joy.
People: I will rejoice over Jerusalem
and take delight in my people;

Leader: the sound of weeping and of crying
will be heard in it no more.
People: The wolf and the lamb will feed together,

Leader: and the lion will eat straw like the ox,
and dust will be the serpent’s food.
People: They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,”

Nearer, My God, to Thee
^{Sarah Flower Adams}

Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me,
still all my song shall be,
nearer, my God, to thee;
nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
darkness be over me, my rest a stone;
yet in my dreams I’d be
nearer, my God, to thee;
nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

There let the way appear, steps unto heaven;
all that thou sendest me, in mercy given;
angels to beckon me
nearer, my God, to thee;
nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise,
out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;
so by my woes to be
nearer, my God, to thee;
nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Scripture Reading
Genesis 28:10-24
^{Carmetta Williams}

Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Harran. ¹¹When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep. ¹²He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. ¹³There above it^[a] stood the Lord, and he said: “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying. ¹⁴Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. ¹⁵I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”

¹⁶When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he thought, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware of it.” ¹⁷He was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven.”

¹⁸Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it. ¹⁹He called that place Bethel, though the city used to be called Luz.

²⁰Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear ²¹so that I return safely to my father’s household, then the Lord will be my God ²²and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be God’s house, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth.”

Great Is Thy Faithfulness
^{Thomas O. Chisholm}

Great is thy faithfulness, O God, my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with thee.
Thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;
As thou hast been, thou forever wilt be.

Great is thy faithfulness,
Great is thy faithfulness,
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed thy hand hast provided;
Great is thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me.

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love. [Refrain]

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine and ten thousand beside. [Refrain]

10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)
^{Matt Redman and Jonas Myrin}

Bless the Lord, O my soul,
O my soul, worship His holy Name.
Sing like never before, O my soul.
I’ll worship Your holy Name.

The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning;
It’s time to sing Your song again.
Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me,
Let me be singing when the evening comes.

You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger,
Your Name is great and Your heart is kind;
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing,
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find.

And on that day when my strength is failing,
The end draws near and my time has come;
Still my soul sings Your praise unending,
Ten thousand years and then forevermore.
