▣ Introduction
Thank you.
※ John Bunyan, who went to prison for preaching the gospel – wrote the work The Pilgrim’s Progress and turned the whole world upside down.
Even today there are countries where you cannot preach the gospel. John Bunyan was arrested for preaching the gospel. And he received a sentence of 16 years. What would you do if it were you? Would you still attend church? Most people would not. He faced a situation of being locked up for 16 years. Usually, when those of us who live a life of faith face difficulties, we hesitate a lot, saying, “What should I do?” Because it looks as if there are no answers in sight, we are shaken. But John Bunyan was not shaken at all. There, as you know, he read the Bible and began to create a work. For a time, it became the most widely read book in the world. The title of that book is The Pilgrim’s Progress. It means “the pilgrim’s path.” He wrote that single book in prison. And it turned the world upside down.

The content is as follows. To a man named Christian, He says this: “The city you live in is not an ordinary city. It is the City of Destruction.” So he called it the City of Destruction—“a city that will be destroyed in the future.” “You must soon leave. Head toward the Celestial City.” “Do not just go alone; if possible, take your friends.” In other words, evangelize. So he takes two friends. One friend’s name is Obstinate. Obstinate refuses for three reasons and will not go. “This city will soon be destroyed.” He says, “It’s fine.” But the other friend’s name is Pliable. Because he is pliable, he follows along well like this. As they go, they enter a certain marketplace. The name of that market is Vanity Fair. It looks very splendid, but it is utterly empty. The product they try to purchase there is a product called Truth. Christian looks for it, but there is no product called Truth. The friend named Pliable sees the goods of Vanity Fair, likes them very much, and says he will live there forever and refuses to come out. In the end, Christian goes on alone.

As he goes, to reach the Celestial City he must pass through a certain gate. He tries to enter the gate, but the gate is small. He cannot get in. Then the watchman looking down from above, whose name is Discretion—“Hyo-si (曉示),” meaning “one who sees the dawn”—says, “You cannot enter here.” Looking closely, the burden on his back is larger than his body. When he removes it, he slips in.

After he enters, this watchman named Discretion gives two gifts. He gives him a sword. “This sword is the sword of the Word, and with it you can defeat the enemy.” Then he gives him armor. “This armor cannot be penetrated by any sword. And this sword can pierce anything.” He tells him to take them and go. But the moment he puts on the armor, he realizes there is no back. Strange, isn’t it? Without a back, it is like a front apron. So he ties it with straps and sets out.
As he goes, he meets a fearsome devil commander named Apollyon. With a long spear and even flapping wings, Apollyon comes attacking. Christian cannot possibly win. The wings flap, he flies, and attacks with a long spear. At that moment, Christian realizes something instantly: “This will not work. The best strategy is to run away.” So there is a saying “the 36 stratagems.” The last and greatest strategy among the strategies of battle is to flee. He tries to run away and then realizes there is no back. “Ah, if I turn back, I will die.” So he fights with all his might. Then something strange happens. No matter how much the devil commander stabs Christian with the spear, he cannot be pierced. Christian catches on to this: “Ah!” Even more surprising, the devil commander also catches on: “This one will not die.” Simply put, the devil falls into a trial. Knowing this, Christian creates a golden opportunity and kills Apollyon with the sword. With a single blow, Apollyon falls. Then he heads toward the Celestial City.
He has almost arrived when two lions stand guard. They roar to devour him. What should he do? When he tries to run, he cannot. Looking closely, that is not the case. The lions have four legs, but both front legs are tied. They are bound with chains. So, though they come near and roar, they cannot bite. Knowing this, Christian passes by calmly. That is the book’s content. It began to sell throughout the world.

1. When the way is blocked
Today we are sending off the year and entering the timetable of welcoming the New Year. So, how should we go through this year? Also, the way is blocked. We see today that Paul’s way of evangelizing was completely blocked in Asia. He tried to go to Bithynia, but that way was blocked as well.

1) Most people give up
What do we do at such times? When the way is blocked or when we face difficulty, what do we usually do? Most people give up. When we try to begin our life, it is an extremely important timetable—what should we do?

2) Religion – teaches that you reap what you sow. Almost all will die.
Religion teaches like this: “You will receive according to what you have done; you will reap what you have sown.” That is the “truth” of religion. If that is so, I cannot be saved. You might be saved, but I have nothing to receive. If we follow religion, almost all will die. “You will reap what you have sown.”

3) Buddhism – teaches that since there is a next life, endure.
What does Buddhism teach? “Even if you suffer now, there is a next life. Endure.” Is that so? I cannot endure. That is how they teach. So, when I went to Thailand, I saw in front of a very wealthy house that a child was sweeping and doing chores very well. I asked how he could do that, and they said he does that to be born well in the next life.

4) People go to fortune-tellers possessed by evil spirits. And so they receive the leading of evil spirits.
Some people, when they try to begin a year and difficulties come, naturally go to have their fortunes told. They say the most fortune-telling is done in January. Right now is the time when fortune-tellers make money. Even deacons go. Deacons go to have their fortunes told and ask, “If I do this business, will it go well or not?” They say that even foolish pastors go. They go to a fortune-teller and ask, “If I plant a church here, will it go well or not?” The moment you have your fortune told by someone possessed by an evil spirit, you are led by evil spirits.

2. God surely guides you. You just need to go there.
Now, we are beginning to go into a year we have never been to before—2025. In fact, we have never encountered the year 2025. We only guess by God’s grace, “It will be like this,” but we do not know. But the way is blocked. “I do not know what to do.” At this point most people miss what is important.
Today I also had time to counsel a remnant. In the content it said, “I do not know what I should do.” So I will answer: “Do nothing.” If you do not know, there is no need to do anything.

1) The Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Lord, guides you (verses 6–7).
What does verse 6 say today? “The Holy Spirit forbade them to speak the word in Asia.” In verse 7, “The Spirit of Jesus did not permit them.” In verse 9, “In the night a vision appeared to Paul: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him, ‘Come over to Macedonia and help us.’” “We concluded that God had called us.” Simple, isn’t it? This is how it begins. This means the Holy Spirit guides you. It means the Spirit of the Lord guides you. You must have this answer.

2) When you pray, God sends His angel and makes known the future (verse 9).
“In a vision” means that when you pray, God sends His angel to you and makes known the future. From here the important answer comes. You understand, right? It must always be so. God will surely guide you. You just need to go there.

3) Unbelievers, because they do not have the Holy Spirit, have no choice but to go to those possessed by evil spirits.
Unbelievers have no choice but to go to those possessed by evil spirits. They do not have the Holy Spirit. Right? That is an enormous difference. Unbelievers do not have the status of God’s children. There is nothing to be offended about. Because they do not believe, they are not God’s children. They do not have the life of Jesus. Therefore, of course they must go to those possessed by evil spirits. Of course they must go bow to a tree—just in case an evil spirit might come. Such a pitiful life. They must bow to a stone—because perhaps an evil spirit might come there. Should we live such a life? What troubles me these days is that too many of our nation’s politicians follow such strange divination, because they are anxious.

4) Confirm that this year will be one in which the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Lord, completely guides you.
From now on you must live this way daily, but we have the New Year prayer meetings ahead. You must confirm it: “This year will be one in which the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Lord, completely guides me.”

3. How should we do it? We should pray.
What should we do? We should pray. Right?

1) Hold to the covenant within the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost that Jesus gave.
In the end, hold to the covenant within the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost that Jesus gave. There is nothing to rush. It will become clear. “What if I am hesitant?” If you are hesitant, do not do it. “Should I do this? Should I do that?” Do not do it. God will surely guide you in 2025. Right? Here is where you must now conclude your life with an answer. If it is true that He surely guides, then it is already finished for us.

2) Paul knew this and entered into deep prayer.
Paul knew this and entered into deep prayer. Just as we now have New Year prayer meetings, he entered into deep prayer. Because I am inferior to Paul, I pray even more than Paul—simply 7·7·7, 24 prayer.

▣ Main

1. Life turning point
At this time, a tremendous life turning point arose for Paul.

1) Paul – On the night in Troas when every door was blocked, the door of Macedonia opened, fulfilling the word that he was a chosen instrument to stand before kings and Gentiles.
What was fulfilled? The word that said of Paul, “He is a chosen instrument to carry my name before kings and the Gentiles.” That door opened: “to Macedonia.” That is right. The Asian family would not work. “To Macedonia.” In today’s terms—“to Europe.” At that time Europe was in control. So what is it? A tremendous answer began to be fulfilled. You must hold to this as you send off this year. How simple is it? All you have to do is pray. If you pray, He gives the answer—it becomes certain. Do you have to see a vision? No. It comes out clearly. Do you have to dream a dream? No. It comes out clearly. Many dreams are nonsense. Therefore a clear answer must come. People dream according to their temperament—those are nonsense dreams. Someone said there was a war in his dream and it was a mess, but it turned out it was just the alarm clock ringing—wasn’t it? How much of a nonsense dream is that? Someone dreamed of a flood—and he had wet his pants. You must not believe such nonsense dreams. You must hold to the sure covenant of God.

2) Joseph – While holding to God’s covenant and praying when his mother died and he was near death, he saw the vision of world evangelization.
What is this? The entire history begins to be seen. When his mother died and he was on the verge of death, Joseph held to God’s covenant and prayed, and he saw the vision of world evangelization. Such a work arose. Right?

3) Moses – God appeared in the fire. “Go to offer the blood sacrifice.”
The people of Israel were all about to die. While he was tending sheep in the wilderness, God appeared in the fire. He remembered the word his mother had given him 80 years earlier: “Go to offer the blood sacrifice.” From that sacrifice he had heard from his mother, the works began. You must never lose this.

※ The Holy Spirit is in you and guides you. The moment you are led by the Holy Spirit, a turning point for your entire life arises. You have the qualification to be led by the Holy Spirit. This is the difference between a believer and an unbeliever. There is no other difference. The Holy Spirit is in you and guides you. To the unbeliever—truly, I am sorry—an evil spirit works and guides that person. That is why they go to have their fortunes told. That is why they go to worship idols. They have no choice. That is why spiritual problems come. Therefore, the moment you are led by the Holy Spirit, a turning point for your entire life arises.

4) David – While working alone, holding to the covenant in the pasture, he came to meet Goliath.
As you know well—while he was working alone in the pasture, holding to the covenant, one day he came to meet Goliath. He came. He met a great turning point of life.

5) Elisha, Obadiah – Having received just a little guidance of the Holy Spirit, God carried out the work of changing the world.
The nation had become an idolatrous nation and all were about to die. Look at Elisha. Look at Obadiah. Having received just a little guidance of the Holy Spirit—see Obadiah, who hid 100 prophets in the crisis. God carried out the work of changing the world. ※ The more certain, the better. The covenant does not change. God protects the church and the individuals who will carry out world evangelization.
The more certain, the better. Do not be shaken—the more certain, the better. Why? Because the covenant does not change. World evangelization is God’s will. God protects the church that will carry out world evangelization. God protects the individuals who will carry out world evangelization. No matter what anyone says, it is so. Right? Hold to this covenant firmly.
As you know, after Paul met Christ, he was completely changed. And through Ananias came the word: “He is a chosen instrument to stand before Israel, the Gentiles, and kings.” When was this fulfilled? When every door was blocked—on the night of Troas. The place was Troas. On the night of Troas.

※ When life is the hardest, God gives the best. In a certain sense, when your life is the hardest, God gives the best.
I always pray when I see the multiethnic people who have come from abroad. They are now facing the most important timetable of life. If there are people who pray for them, God will not leave them alone. You must hold on.

2. Turning point for the church – You meet the people God has prepared.
As time is short, secondly: In order to receive this guidance of the Holy Spirit, Paul prayed that night—and this became a complete turning point for the church. From then on he met people whom God had prepared.

1) While going to pray he met Lydia, and he healed the sickness of a demon-possessed person whom no one could heal.
While going to pray, he met Lydia. Lydia did not invite him first. While going to pray, he met Lydia. This is the firstfruit. It is the firstfruit of Macedonia. Paul proclaimed the gospel. The Bible says, “The Lord opened Lydia’s heart.” Then Lydia said, “Come into my house and stay.” From then the works began. If you are led by the Holy Spirit and see God’s sure guidepost, then within that turning point the work of changing the church will happen.
He healed the sickness of a demon-possessed person whom no one could heal. Right?

2) In Thessalonica, the gateway to Rome, God had prepared Jason.
It did not end there. There was a great nation that connected to Rome—Thessalonica. God sent Paul there. When he arrived, a person like Jason was prepared. And not only that.

3) God prepared the couple Priscilla and Aquila, who would change the world, and had them meet Paul.
God had prepared the couple Priscilla and Aquila who would change the world, and had them meet Paul. It was not through someone’s introduction. It was complete leading of the Holy Spirit. In this way, God had prepared them.

3. Turning point that changes the world – Rome
Today, and on the road ahead, if you, not as unbelievers but being led by the Holy Spirit—even if you are led just a little—then the third thing happens. What is it? The timetable of a turning point that changes the world. What is that? Rome. That is the end.

1) “You must also see Rome.”
Paul came to realize this. And after the works arose, he was not proud at all, not shaken at all, and said, “You must also see Rome.” Open your eyes. At this time God aligned everything in direction for Paul.

2) “You must testify in Rome also” – God quoted Paul, who had the exact covenant.
Because of this, Paul stood in court. God spoke directly: “Paul, do not be afraid. You must testify in Rome also. Be of good courage.” God quoted Paul’s words. Why? Because Paul had God’s exact covenant.
If you hold to this covenant that you received on the night of Troas, God will quote your words, actions, and life. This is an important beginning. From the moment you hold to God’s sure covenant, God will take hold of your work. Right? You will not need to worry about your health. Remnants’ studies? You will not need to worry.

3) “You must stand before Caesar” – What the angel of the Lord said while he prayed in the hold of the ship when they met the storm.
Not only that. A world of complete crisis came. As you know, though Paul had no crime, he was going to Rome as a prisoner to stand trial. The name of that ship was Alexandrian. I mention the name to set the historical evidence. He had to sail to Rome on that ship. Paul was a man of prayer. Having evangelized much, he knew: “If we go now, we will all die in the storm. We must wait here for a while before going.” No one listened to Paul. But there was a centurion in charge, right? His name was Julius. Because he was uneasy—he had responsibility—he called the shipowner and asked, “This man says we will meet a storm; is that right?” The shipowner said, “There has never been a storm at this season.” So the centurion named Julius asked the captain, “Is it true that this ship will meet a storm?” The captain, speaking from experience, said, “Impossible.”
But Julius was a Roman officer and a very prudent man. He asked again. He asked the whole group for their opinion: “This man insists the ship will meet a storm; shall we still go?” The 276 people aboard all said, “Let us not rest here—let us go to Phoenix.” Phoenix is a good place to rest. “Let us rest a bit there and then go.” No one listened to the evangelist.
But as they went, a tempest suddenly struck. A violent storm struck suddenly. Because it struck suddenly, there was no countermeasure. As the violent storm struck, the ship began to sink. The storm was so fierce that they did not know how many days had passed. They did not know whether it was night or day. The ship began to sink. They roughly estimated it had been about fourteen days—fourteen days in the storm. All hope was gone. Others were screaming to survive, praying, throwing cargo overboard. Useless. In disaster, the shipowner’s money does not work. Right? The captain’s skill does not work. The centurion’s rank does not work. While they were in turmoil and the ship was sinking, Paul went down into the hold and began to pray. Then God appeared to Paul: “Last night an angel of the Lord stood by me and said, ‘Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar.’” Having heard this, Paul came up and comforted the people on board. At first he rebuked them a little: “Did I not tell you this would happen?” “But last night the angel of the Lord spoke to me and said, ‘Do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar.’” After this word was delivered, the storm began to subside. What happened? Paul’s going to be tried—settled. He was on the way to Rome to stand trial. What is it? The turning point that changes the world. It was connected all the way there.
As you send off this year and enter the next—just even briefly—it is fine. You must pray. How truly should you begin? What should you do when the door is blocked for you? What should you do when difficulties come? It must become the turning point of receiving the perfect guidance of the Holy Spirit.

▣ Conclusion

1. When you are sick – Rely on nothing and pray before God
To conclude—if you become sick, what should you do? Rely on nothing and truly enter before God in prayer, as Paul prayed. Paul prayed to the point that he said he did not know whether he was in the body or out of the body.

2. When you fall into crisis – Pray before God. When Israel collapsed and was scattered as wanderers, the disciples of the synagogue whom Paul had prepared were sent out.
What should you do when you fall into complete crisis? Paul did not go up on deck. Shouldn’t people go up? But what could he do if he went up? He went down into the hold of the ship and began to pray before God. After this—A.D. 70. Not long after—Israel collapsed. They were scattered throughout the world as wanderers. At that time, Paul began to send out the disciples of the synagogue he had prepared. It seems like a dreamlike story. Because God does it. But what I am telling you now is a historical fact.

3. Hold to the exact covenant.
Hold to the exact covenant. Before this year ends and before the New Year comes, hold to the exact covenant. As to which covenant you should hold, I will speak as a reference at the New Year time.
In October of ’87—October 1987—I came into Yeongdo. When I came, some of our early members were there—our deaconesses. I made one promise with them: “If our church carries out the gospel movement, God will be responsible for everything. If you and I are truly people who will carry out the gospel movement, God will bless our church.” I said that and began. Disciples are arising throughout the world.
I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that you will hold to the sure covenant completely by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Though it is a short time, let it be an important time. As we finish the year and enter the New Year, let us see God’s perfect covenant. Let us see the turning point in our lives. Now let us see the turning point in our church. And now work so that we can see the turning point for our posterity and for the world. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

18. Jun. 2024 237 Tuesday Disciple Training
From Caesarea Philippi To ROME
Lecture 3: To Rome [Leave Behind the Footprints of Your Lifelong Answer] (Romans 16:25-27)

---

Healing House (Romans 16:25)
TCK House (Romans 16:26)
Holy Mason (Romans 16:27)

---

♠Introduction: Overall theme of Lectures 7–9 – “To Rome (Romans 16 people)”

The people of Romans 16 saw this (to Rome).
They understood when Paul said, “You must also see Rome.” Now you must leave behind the footsteps of answers for your entire life. What is that? Let me explain simply.
⑦Lecture 7: Healing house (Romans 16:25) → Every church leader must build a Healing house according to the Bible. It does not matter if you do not build it quickly. Romans 16:25 says that He promised to give what was hidden for ages past.
⑧Lecture 8: TCK house (Romans 16:26) → Every church leader must build a TCK house. It is the lifelong answer.
⑨Lecture 9: Holy mason (Romans 16:27) → Every church leader must become a Holy mason. This is Romans 16:27.

♠Lecture 7: Healing house (Romans 16:25) → “5 kinds of life (daily life)” ♠

People like Lydia and Priscilla in the early church did this ministry well, but today there are no people doing this. All you need to do is help with these 5 things through life. That is why it is not just called “healing” but “Healing house.” I help them so that they can be healed, through daily life. What are the 5 kinds of life? Nothing else. It is very simple.
Before much prayer and breathing, you must know this: ① medically, it must be accurate. For example, if salespeople spoke only accurately, they would make money. But they speak as if they have a cure-all. If that were true, Asan Medical Center and Samsung Medical Center would all have to close down, wouldn’t they? Because it is a cure-all. That makes no sense. Koreans, if they hear something is good, they eat it unconditionally. Especially members of the Evangelism Movement – they are even more extreme. Their concentration is strong. I think, “That is incredible.” My doctor once told me: “A human body is not worth just 20 or 30 million won. Why do they put anything into it?” He was right. First, it must be accurate medically. According to that comes ② food, and according to that comes ③ exercise. You must help them with this. The most important exercise is the original – what God gave. Eve did not wear high heels. Take note. Just walking like that is enough. Truly. Adam and Eve held hands and had to work in the morning to eat breakfast. Because there were no refrigerators, everything spoiled. They had to work at noon to eat lunch. They had to work again before sunset to eat dinner and then sleep. This is what God gave. If you do this, real works arise. Then, in a place with clean air, ④ breathe. There, ⑤ pray.
That is how you help them. Personalize it. If they say even breathing is difficult, bring them and make them rest. If they say walking barefoot is difficult, then have them take off their shoes and walk. How good is that? The shocking truth is that there is not a single church in the entire world that helps such sick people. It is astounding. Knowing this, the 3 organizations are attacking like fire. Why do we make it so difficult? If I were a doctor, even better. Doctors must honestly confess: you only know what can be seen with your eyes or in pictures. You cannot be responsible for more than that. And many of these illnesses began long ago. They already suffered from spiritual problems. So what should we do? We must help them with this. What evangelism could be better than this? You must do it. After praying, establish a Healing house that is dignified and of a higher level. Do not do it roughly. Even unbelievers should see it and say, “That is correct. Even doctors see it and say, ‘That is right, they are doing well.’” It must be medically accurate. Then when disciples come and see it, they will say, “This is truly the gospel.” That is the kind of house you must build.

Introduction – Healing (brain science)
In the future, all churches must be healing churches. Not only churches. Any business unrelated to healing will not develop.

1. Incurable diseases
2. Mental illnesses
3. Spiritual illnesses
What kind of illnesses? Because they cannot be treated, they are incurable, mental, and spiritual illnesses, and they are full. Almost all come from the brain. Among healings, brain science is rising. Remnants must take note. The age of brain science is coming. The 3 organizations will attack. But the spiritual problem brings even more serious problems. Truly, all these illnesses come from the brain. That is why I tell them to breathe comfortably. When they breathe, the brain comes alive.

Main

1. The 7 remnants – healing the age
If you look carefully in the Bible, the 7 remnants healed the age itself. Joseph saved the 237 nations. Moses went through Egypt and the 40 years in the wilderness, proclaiming the Lord to all the surrounding nations. People like Samuel healed the entire age. Even during captivity, they healed the age of the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes. Without this healing, the future will be difficult.

2. Peter – Acts 3:1–12
You must consider the healings of Peter and Paul. What healing did Peter do? It appears in 2 or 3 places, but the most important one is very clear. He raised the lame man at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. Everything is included in this. As this happened, the great door of evangelism began to open. It could not be stopped.

3. Paul – illnesses doctors cannot heal
And what was Paul’s characteristic? He healed all the illnesses doctors could not heal – spiritual problems and mental problems. And the person who recorded this was a doctor. Doctor Luke recorded it in detail because he was so amazed. If it had been a journalist or another person, perhaps it would have been different. But Luke was a successful physician. He was close with Theophilus and had the background to follow Paul. He recorded all of this.

♠Conclusion: 7/7/7 Imprint
So, what is the purpose of true healing? It is to imprint this. That is enough. To imprint the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost. Then even if you do not tell them to be healed, they will be healed. Such things appear. Church leaders, take this as your lifelong prayer topic and begin praying.

 

♠Lecture 8: TCK house (Romans 16:26) → “Direction” ♠

What is next? Didn’t God say this? Shouldn’t our direction align with God? “Go to all nations, to all people, to the ends of the earth.” If He said this, then at least our direction must align.

Introduction – What standard must we set?

1. Studies (237) – First, our studies, the studies of the remnants, must have the standard of 237.
2. Occupation (5,000 tribes) – Next, like Joseph, your occupation and work must have the standard of the 5,000 tribes.
3. Mission (home country) – You must now teach the life of TCKs. From the beginning, you must set this standard. In the end, you must either return to your home country or call people from your home country. In some ways, calling them is better, because you can call many. So you must teach this from the beginning. Either you go back to your home country and save it, or you call the people there. You must imprint this clearly. Nothing is more important.

Main

1. Remnants – TCKs
Simply put, all 7 remnants were TCKs. God used TCKs. So, why were the 7 remnants TCKs? If you confirm this, you will see it clearly.

2. TCKs who are here
Where must you stake your life? On the TCKs who are already here. Among them there are false ones and true ones. Of course, you must distinguish, but even so, you must imprint this (home country) clearly to them.
We once talked about this. Recently in the provinces, the age of country houses ended, so people put all their country houses up for sale. Turn them into Healing houses. If it does not work, we will try once as a model at headquarters. Works will arise. Then train the TCKs there. Do not train TCKs in places that are too good. Why? Because they must go to their home countries and do ministry. You must train them in similar places. For example, in Busan, two people came as missionaries. But once they came to Busan, they lost their minds. Every night they went out. They loved it so much. Wherever they went, there was a supermarket. They loved instant ramen so much that they cooked and ate it every day. They wandered around. Finally, they ran away. The two of them escaped. Because they escaped, it was all reported to immigration. And because of COVID-19 issues with Japanese people, they were told to hand them back, but they refused. The World Evangelization Evangelism Association was told that two people had run away. That is true. Such things happen. You must imprint their mission from the beginning. So you must train them firmly. TCKs are everything.

3. TCKs to be invited
And then, what is more important? As I said earlier, try this in your churches this year. The TCKs you invite. This is more important. They already know and come. They are different from those you meet in Korea. Amazingly, perhaps because God is working, they are all prepared. They are prepared to an astonishing degree. They understand the Korean language very well. I was amazed. They speak Korean. They receive the gospel so well. They said after hearing the message, “This is the best.” I wondered, “Did they really understand?” Such people are so good. Isn’t that right? If they are truly in the evangelism field, when they hear the pastors’ sermons, they are all guided. Isn’t that so? If they will not evangelize, there is no use in listening. Why would they listen if they will not evangelize? If they will not evangelize, why live so stubbornly? Just live moderately, isn’t that so? Long ago, Pastor Park Ji-On left a famous saying. Someone asked, “Pastor, are you healthy?” He replied simply, “If there is no evangelism left to do, then I must go!” That is right. If there is evangelism left, we stay. If not, then we go.

♠Conclusion: 7/7/7 Root
So, go one step further. Root them completely before sending them. Once rooted, fruit will come. The more deeply rooted, the more fruit. That is right. So life and direction must align with God. Doing well or not is secondary.

 

♠Lecture 9: Holy mason (Romans 16:27) → “Monument” ♠

When God first called us, He promised five blessings. What are they? ① Covenant blessing, ② Fundamental blessing, ③ Representative blessing, ④ Monumental blessing, ⑤ Irresistible blessing. Among these, what we must know most is the monument. We must leave behind the footsteps of the gospel we have walked. The next generation must see them and follow.

Introduction: Romans 16:1–2 (protector) / Romans 16:3–4 (coworker) / Romans 16:23 (host)
So, to leave behind such footsteps, Phoebe staked her life. She carried the great burden of the letter to the Romans. Paul called her a protector. Normally a man protects a woman, but here a woman protected a man. Amazing. Perhaps she looked like Jang Mi-Ran (a famous weightlifter). Paul described her like this. Not only that, he called Priscilla and Aquila coworkers who risked their necks. This is truly a monumental blessing. And here also is Gaius, who was the host not only of me but of the whole church. Amazing.

Main – Monumental footsteps
So now, as you pray, leave behind monumental footsteps in the church. I often say this: greater works will continue to arise. For example, an elder’s daughter died in an accident and went to heaven. They received compensation money. They thought carefully about how to use it. I advised them: use it for something eternal. So with their daughter’s name, they built a kindergarten in Vanuatu. It became popular 500%. Later, Elder So-Ga built a middle school there with his name. How good is that? Others saw and learned. Some learn bad things, but others learn good things. This must be done. An old saying goes: when a person dies, he leaves behind a name. Isn’t that so? What else remains but a name? Your name must be in missions. Your name must be in what you dedicated in the church.

Recently, I said something for the first time. Normally I do not interfere. But I told Pastor Hwang and the elders. A deaconess passed away and gave her property for missions. I told them, “Build a TCK house with her name. Then when TCKs come and go, they will see it, pray, and learn.” In some way, every church leader must do this. In history, such things remain – Pastor Han Kyung-Jik Memorial Hall, Pastor Ok Han-Hum Memorial Hall. In advanced countries, cities and streets are named after people. Kim Dae-Jung Center, for example. How good is that? In the same way, build it in your churches. Pray about it.

1. Lifelong answers
What did David do? When he built and established, he received lifelong prayer and answers.

1) Moses – Moses did this. With lifelong prayer and answers, he carried out the Tabernacle movement.
2) David – From the moment he met Samuel, David prayed his whole life. The temple…
3) Romans 16 people – And now, the people of Romans 16. They are true models. They prayed for their entire lives. You must become such Holy masons.

2. Next generation
And most importantly, our next generation will see this. They must see and follow. What else should they see? They must see that evangelism and missions are like this. You must show them simply and clearly.

3. Christian leaders of the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes
More importantly, what kind of monuments do we need? Monuments for the Christian leaders of the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes. Should we go into politics or other fields? No. We must raise Christian leaders who know the gospel correctly and proclaim it. We must surely build such monuments. It is not difficult. Church leaders, when you are about to die, say, “I do not need anything else. Please use my offering to build a memorial. Build a room in the church. Build a small house inside the church where the next generation, TCKs, and people of prayer can come and see.”

♠Conclusion: 7/7/7 Nature
This is what we must make. Imprint, root, and nature. Answers come as you are imprinted. Fruit comes as deeply as you are rooted. Your future and destiny change as much as it becomes your nature. This is what we must do.
Because you already know the messages well, I do not need to make long speeches. I summarized only the core. Next time, we will outline the Evangelism Movement from the Evangelism House to the 5,000 tribes, and then go deeper. Let us pray.

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the solution to all problems, the infinite love of God, and the powerful work of the Holy Spirit be always with all disciples who will save the world, from now to eternity. Amen.

From Caesarea Philippi To ROME
Lecture 2: On the Mount of Olives (Acts 1:1-14)

---

One Person – the Church (Acts 1:1-14)
One Church – the Region (Acts 2:1-47)
One Team – the World (Romans 16:1-27)

---

Introduction: Overall theme of Lectures 4–6 – “At Mt Olive (not going, but making them come)”
This is what happened “at Mt Olive.”

④Lecture 4: One person – Church (Acts 1:1–14) → Even with one person, the church is revived.
⑤Lecture 5: One church – Region (Acts 2:1–47) → If there is only one church that holds onto this covenant, the region will surely be revived.
⑥Lecture 6: One team – World (Romans 16:1–27) → If there is only one team with this covenant, the world will surely be revived.
Let me briefly introduce the Bible passages.
These are the people who had this (Acts 1:1–14). With this, they came down and received this answer (Acts 2:1–47). Even if there is only one team as in Romans 16, the world will be revived.
Background (ability) – Here you must find one answer that connects with you. In fact, this background and ability are better off not having. Only then can you do this (Acts 1:1–14). Even if you have them, like Paul, you must say they are unnecessary. Those who think they need this (background–ability) will find it difficult. Why? Because it must be this (Acts 1:1–14). So if you look carefully, there is a characteristic among church leaders who could not continue long in ministry. They get caught here (background–ability). Even if they do not get caught by it, because they are within this (background–ability), limitations come. When we commonly say “old person, young person,” this does not mean physical age. Even if aged, if they are saving many people and are in that place, who can hinder them? To be “old” includes age, but it means having become too much a person of the past. You must take note. The standard is not that you must not have background. Paul said it was totally unnecessary. That means he understood. He understood though he was not at the scene. Some were at the scene but did not understand.

Another part we have is poverty. Those who are not trapped in poverty, if they receive this answer, then that pastor will surely save a region. Those who think “I have money,” those who grew up like that, have never saved a region. Also, in fact we have no ability, don’t we? That is better. Why? Because we are trying to do the real thing. If you keep thinking you have ability, then limitations come. This is not just talk. It is about whether the answer has come or not. It is about whether you truly enjoy it or not. More important is whether this person goes to the end or not. In some cases, they cannot go to the end. Even if they go together, in the church they will just stay like dead people. Why? Because limitations come in this (background–ability)…

♠Lecture 4: One person – Church (Acts 1:1–14) → Background (ability) X ♠
Even if there is only one person with this answer, the church will surely be revived.
Introduction – 3 years / 40 days / 10 days / Lord’s Day / daily / set times / 24, 25, eternity
So the introduction must be clear, right? For 3 years, Jesus spoke about what to discard. If you do not discard them, you cannot. Then for 40 days He explained about the kingdom of the throne. They are completely contrasting. For 10 days they prayed earnestly and received the filling of the Holy Spirit. From there they came alive by devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching – this is the Lord’s Day. As this came alive, when the Lord’s Day is revived, it is not just simply living. Because the Word is fulfilled, it became “daily in the temple, daily in the homes.” Then people with whom the covenant connects are joined. From this point, prayer that begins together is the set time prayer. Once this happens, whether you pray alone or together, it no longer matters – you change like this. This is the absolute introduction. If you are within this, you need not worry about anything else. In fact, what Jesus spoke about at Mt Olive regarding missions, of course it is also going, but it is to make them come. For example, if you have no ability to make them come, even if you go, it is useless. Isn’t that so? You must have something. That is Lecture 4.

Main
1. My platform (7 bartizans) – 24 hours
Once this happens, the first thing that arises is that God builds my platform. Once a platform is built, it is the same in business. People come to those who have a platform, don’t they? Long ago in the international market, there was a pork shop. Only one shop was packed with people. At that time its name was Sansugapsan, and all people in Busan knew Sansugapsan. If you went there, there was no seat. But right next door, another pork shop was there. Amazingly, not a single person was there. The owner sat frowning and fanning himself. It looked like no one would go there. You must make people come. That is the platform.

2. My watchman’s bartizan (7 journeys) – 25 hours
Then I stand as a watchman’s bartizan that shines the light to save many people. Naturally, then an antenna that communicates with the world and with God is raised. This is called the 7 bartizans. This is called 24. This journey is difficult – you go through the 7 journeys. So you go with the power of 25.

3. My antenna (7 guideposts) – Eternity
Here the absolute guidepost, the absolute bartizan, is raised. It will be built. This is called eternity. If only one person arises… So, if there are any church leaders here, there is nothing else to say. If you receive the answer, that is enough. If even one church leader properly receives the answer, both the church and the next generation are revived. If one church leader receives the answer, the pastor’s ministry becomes very easy. For example, if there is only one person like Gaius, world evangelization is possible. Even Priscilla and Aquila, just the two of them following, did everything. Then missions becomes easy. You don’t even have to worry. You just proclaim the gospel. This is what moved the early church.

Conclusion: The bartizan of prayer (watchman)
Then what conclusion comes? I now always build the bartizan of prayer and become a watchman. This conclusion comes.

♠Lecture 5: One church – Region (Acts 2:1–47) → Poverty (money) resolved ♠
If even one church holds onto this covenant, the region is revived.
Introduction – 3 concentrations / 3 settings / 3 answers
This is the introduction here. If you do this, it is enough. With 3 concentrations, this is built. Especially editing, planning, and designing are done. Then the 3 answers come. Overall, you must surely receive and deliver exactly what is in the Bible. I just used these words for easier explanation, but it is exactly what is in the Bible. During the 3 years of public ministry, Jesus spoke about what to discard and what to change. But the Jews and the medieval church held onto everything they were told to discard. Even if other things were okay, world evangelization could not happen. What arose were only wars. Because they gained power, they fought with it. Was it the Pope, was it the Emperor – they fought like that. Such ridiculous things happened, bringing huge problems into history.

Main – So what must you surely know when this happens?
1. Important answers
What is the most important answer to enjoy in the church? This arises right away.

1) Passover
2) Pentecost
3) Feast of Ingathering
Pentecost is based on Passover, right? Pentecost is also based on the Feast of Ingathering. So in a sense, Passover and the Feast of Ingathering are guaranteed. What we now enjoy is Pentecost. On the day of Pentecost, when it came, the work of the Holy Spirit took place…

2. World system (Acts 2:9–11)
At this point, an important world system is built. You must not lose this. This is Acts 2:9–11. In some sense, all nations were already there.

3. Worship (Acts 2:17–18, 42)
Then in worship, they enjoyed very important answers. You must not lose this in worship. This is Acts 2:17–18, right? Dreams, visions, prophecy, and speaking of the future. And verse 42 – they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching. Worship was revived. When a pastor goes to preach, if he is not in the best spiritual condition, then nothing else matters. When we preach, isn’t it so? Of course it would be good if we always had assurance that this is God’s will, that I must deliver this, but sometimes it is exactly like that. That is right. Preparing a sermon means preparing that. Of course interpreting words, theological explanation, all are important. But the most important is having the assurance that God wants to deliver this. Then the congregation must come and hear God’s voice in the sermon. All problems start from not achieving that. That is certain. If you go 10 years like that, what happens? If you live your entire life of faith like that, what happens? It becomes ridiculous.

4. Economy of light (Acts 2:43–45) – Offering
The fourth is important. Congregants must surely remember. The economy of light – this is offering. You may not realize it, but this is the economy of light. The offerings you give are used for evangelism and missions. This is the economy of light.
I always say this. A few people gathered money. Our village is not big. We built a small church. No one else received the gospel. Only my family received the gospel. From there, I went as a missionary to that country. Such tremendous things happen. When giving offering, you must never just give. It is the economy of light. It must always be prepared with prayer. Those who do not, they are poor. No choice. You can confirm for yourselves. “I do not have prayer for offering.” It is not about giving much or little, right? Nor is it about my name. Some people prepare even if they give anonymously. For me, I almost always give anonymously. Before God, I must be prepared in prayer. That is the economy of light. From that day until now, I have never suffered financial difficulty. From the very beginning until now, so many works arose, but because of people drooling, I just spent time wiping drool. They drooled endlessly. That is all I did for 30 years – wipe drool. All those people left. You must know what the economy of light is. The offering of church members – is there any economy of light greater than that? Right?

5. Worship and 6 days (Acts 2:46–47)
Finally, worship and the 6 days. Are the 6 days different days? They are all the Lord’s Day. This is Acts 2:46–47. Daily in the temple, daily in the homes…

Conclusion: Bartizan of the Word
So this conclusion comes. Build the bartizan of the Word. Build in me the bartizan of prayer, and build in me the bartizan of the Word.

♠Lecture 6: One team – World (Romans 16:1–27) → Inability resolved ♠
In this way, a team is formed among church leaders who have realized. From then, the works begin.
Introduction – From then, how does it begin?

1. Filled with faith – Filled with faith, but if you place conditions, nothing happens. So, filled with faith…
2. Filled with the Holy Spirit – If this condition is met, that is enough. Filled with the Holy Spirit…
3. Filled with wisdom – Only what comes from here can accomplish world evangelization. Filled with wisdom. These were the people chosen.

Main – So if only one team arises, that is enough. What did these people do?
1. The duty that blocks the age of disasters (Acts 6:1–7)
First, they received the duty that blocks the age of disasters. That is enough. The duty you received is to block the age of disasters. Serving God and giving glory – that is what we say among ourselves, but outwardly speaking, it is to block the age of disasters. That is how it happened. Evangelism, inwardly, is the work of salvation. Outwardly, it is blocking the disasters of darkness.

2. The beginning that changed the world (Acts 7:1–60)
This is the beginning that changed the world – the death of Stephen. He changed the world. Stephen did not die. Stephen fell asleep. Because of Stephen, the world changed. Just once was enough. If one team arises, it is enough.

3. The beginning that changed history
Finally, the beginning that changed church history and history occurred. Through one team, what happened?

1) Acts 8:4–8
A work arose in Samaria. In Samaria – this is very historical.
2) Acts 8:26–40
How could such a case be? The Ethiopian eunuch – it was not that he went. That man came. Such a meeting happened.

4. Choice of crisis
It did not end there. Church leaders must surely remember. They chose crises that changed the world. There are about three of them. What are they?

1) Acts 11:19
Acts 11:19. Truly they chose crisis.
2) Acts 12:1–25
Acts 12:1–25. You know what happened that night.

5. Pioneers of missions (Acts 13:1–5)
Finally, the actual pioneers of missions. Acts 13:1–5. The fact that church leaders were included there, the fact that Paul always established church leaders first wherever he went, and the fact that he always went into the synagogue…

Conclusion: Romans 16:25–27
Then this is the conclusion for these people. What had been hidden for ages past is revealed. What will be for all eternity is shown. This is the answer.
So it is okay if you have no ability. That ability is unnecessary. Because we cannot accomplish this (Acts 1:1–14), we do it with this ability (the content of the lecture). Then Satan kneels before your feet. That content is in Romans 16. So one person, one church, one team is enough. Church leaders must be resolved for this. I, one person – such things (background/ability/poverty/inability) are unnecessary. Because I will surely receive answers, money is unnecessary. If such a person arises, revival happens. The witnesses were in fact the people of Romans 16, weren’t they? So the churches they built were the Jerusalem church and the Antioch church. Here, mainly the history began in Antioch.
From Caesarea Philippi to Rome. Let us take a short break. Today we looked at the whole picture. Next time, we will look in detail. Soon we will look at the path to Rome. Let’s take a 10-minute break.

From Caesarea Philippi To ROME
Lecture 1: From Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 6:33; 16:13-20)

---

The Path to Block Disasters (Matthew 6:33)
Changing Your Destiny (Matthew 16:16)
Possessing the Best (Matthew 16:20)

---

Introduction: (Premise theme of (1–3 lessons))– “At Caesarea Philippi”

Today, I will look at the whole outline from “Caesarea Philippi to Rome.” What is the important thing that began here (Caesarea Philippi)? That the Christ came as King—that is important. That is Matthew. Conversely, that He came as a servant—that is Mark. That the Christ is God—that is John. That the Christ put on human flesh and came as the Son of Man—that is Luke. Seen this way, we must regard it as the appearance of the King of kings. Everything is decided here.

① Lesson 1:
Lesson 1 is the message prior to Caesarea Philippi. It presented the way to block the world’s disasters completely. From then on, globalization begins. The appearance of the Christ becomes an enormous message. This part (Lesson 1) is “before.” These parts are very important—the things prior to Caesarea Philippi.

② Lesson 2: Changing destiny—Evangelism (Matthew 16:16) → “What to find”
And what answer was given at Caesarea Philippi? It is to change destiny completely. So the most important message before that is Matthew 6:33. The greatest message at Caesarea Philippi was Matthew 16:16: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God…”

③ Lesson 3: Possessing the highest thing—No other things (Matthew 16:20) → “What is urgent”
There is what comes after that. What comes after is that He made us possess the highest thing. That is Matthew 16:20: “Do not tell anyone yet,” because something tremendous still remains.

Here your church, your members, everything is decided. Therefore those who did not give an answer here were not invited to Mt Olive. They all fell away. We will look at the Mt Olive message in the second session. Seen this way, this is beyond “important.” Here (before) He spoke of what must be changed. At Caesarea Philippi He spoke of what must absolutely be found. And in fact here (after), “Do not tell” does not mean we must not proclaim; it is to attempt what is urgent.

Therefore, regarding these three, the Christ alone must be seen; if anything else is seen, disasters cannot be blocked. This is where problems come. Only when the Christ is seen can destiny change. Otherwise it will never change. Evangelism becomes easy like this. And the life of faith becomes easy. If my destiny has not changed, the life of faith is not easy. The life of faith itself is hard. And evangelism will be the hardest thing. When this destiny is overturned, evangelism becomes the easiest of all—does it not? Then you must let your members, who pray with their lives, know this. At this level, other things are not needed. The problem is that other things are needed. Now you are the remaining ones, truly evangelists, so you must truly begin. Formerly He taught the crowds; now He speaks to disciples. Crowds need festivals. You are not at that stage now. Crowds need food. So He performed the miracle of the five loaves and two fish. The crowds need urgent healings. But none of those people were there when Jesus bore the cross. So after the Christ bore the cross, the disciples who survived gathered at Mt Olive. That, in fact, is the main message.

Though this is the introduction, it is extremely important. So whether your church will do world evangelization or not cannot be if you do not know what to change, what to find, and what is urgent. In a sense, in the early days when we said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God,” that phrase exploded, but in one respect, though it is a strong message, there is too much to do. Many were shocked and came, then quit—because they did not change, and since they did not change, the disaster did not depart. As evidence, the church does not go well. What can we do? The individual suffers. You must truly hold to a certain, sure covenant for this (disaster) to collapse. When this collapses, the world opens. Because this disaster is a global system. This (destiny) must change for evangelism to take place. And when I possess the highest thing, I do not need other things.

♠ Lesson 1: The way to block disaster—The world (Matthew 6:33) → “What to change” ♠

Here you must tell them a few things that need to be changed.

Introduction—You know these well.
1) True blessing
What is true blessing? “You will be comforted,” and many such things come out. But the most important is “the kingdom of heaven is your inheritance”—that is chapter 5.

2) True prayer
In chapter 6, what is true prayer? You must make your members truly know this. Are we saying you must not pray for other things? No. Other things also exist in general religions. For example, if having much seems like blessing, then one would not need to come to church to have much.

3) True church
Here, the answer for the true church is found within this. In the end, Jesus said there will be churches that collapse and churches that do not. Later, when the wind blows and the rain falls, the church built on sand will all collapse, but the church built on the rock will not collapse—Jesus spoke such meaningful words, and it turned out exactly like that. In the end, those who understood this word did world evangelization. This message is the proclamation of the King.

Main—World disaster
The world’s disaster collapses before the covenant you hold. What covenant? Here all of Scripture is restored.

1. Genesis 37:1–11, Joseph
Joseph. Others did not hold the covenant being handed down, but Joseph did. In fact, because of Joseph, world disaster began to collapse. The gospel is this great. The gospel is enormous, yet there are too many who live a life of faith without even tasting it.

Have we not all come this far? In my case, doing the evangelism movement, there was nothing visible to my eyes, and I did not even know what had been done. Those associate pastors who were with me—Pastor Lee Sung-Hoon and Pastor Kim—they know it all, right? Nothing was visible—only the gospel was spoken—yet such disciples arose among us. Where is the key? World disaster is now collapsing because of you. Do you not sense it? This year is the beginning, and next year it will be more. Disciples in completely different nations have begun to arise. What blessing could be greater than this? You likely just did what was naturally to be done here and there. But world disaster collapsed.

2. Exodus 2:1–10, Moses
With this one covenant, what is in Scripture has been restored as is. When one person, Moses of the tribe of Levi—who knew the blood sacrifice—appears, the whole world is changed. This is absolutely not our strength. This must not be far from you; it must be near. This must not be merely a story of the past; it must be a present story. By the covenant of you, one person, all collapses. This (disaster) must collapse for this (destiny change) to happen. The destinies of the saints must be overturned. You must do this. Because this is not changed, they remain stuck.

3. 1 Samuel 7:1–15, Samuel
When one person arose—though fourteen judges had appeared—they could not truly overcome the Philistines. It says that while Samuel lived, the Philistines could not invade. What is this? He bound the Philistine disaster. This is covenant, gospel, and prayer.

Perhaps you do not yet feel it, but because of you, one person, disaster is bound in every place you go. You must believe this. Your members must have this much pride as evangelists and disciples. Yes—this must be assured. Why? Because Satan keeps prodding while alive; Satan has nothing to do to you but to confuse you—right? He knows he cannot overcome you, so he confuses you, makes you not know this standard. Therefore you must have assurance. How assured was Paul? “Whether I live or die, it does not matter.” Once it reaches this point, darkness cannot but be broken.

4. 1 Chronicles 29:10–14, David
This speaks of what was before. Around you a thousand bartizans will be set up, and the sanctuary will be completed. You must receive this blessing also. All our Darakbang churches overseas must receive the blessing of sanctuary construction. David is the one who accomplished this.

Here is something important. When you begin a pioneering work or missions, a lifelong prayer must begin. Did I not tell this previously? Elder Kim Kwang-Il called me to take some books, and when I went to his house, there were many theological books. Those are in the library (RTS) now. Among the books I submitted to the library, when you open the cover, there are cut marks—that’s all Elder Kim Kwang-Il’s. Suddenly, when President Chun Doo-Hwan began, they arrested Kim Kwang-Il. He was in his office, and soldiers came and took him. Back then, who was the head of the security command? That person. He is from Hapcheon. Kim Kwang-Il is also from Hapcheon. Not only that, the head of the security command and Kim Kwang-Il were friends. Since they were friends, he got out well, but he had been taken. His wife burned all the materials, and I had this feeling they might come to my house. So I removed all the tags marked “Kim Kwang-Il.” Mainly big dictionaries, good ones. As he handed them to me, he said: “I am so disgusted with the world that I decided to quit it all and do evangelism, to go to seminary.” But now he realized, “No, it’s right for me to go this path now.” So he gave me all the books. And when I went to receive the books, there was a black notebook. Showing it to me, he asked whether there were any who were doing church planting. I said there were many. “Then, reverend, please take care of it.” He handed me an envelope, to deliver it. There were many places to give—there were many pioneers. Then I suddenly thought, “Ah!” I looked at the notebook. Though there was no sanctuary construction going on, he had recorded offerings for sanctuary construction. Helping pioneering churches and missionaries—that goes without saying—but he was accumulating offerings for pioneering church construction. “What is this?” He must have put it in a bank. He recorded it all. I asked, “Which church’s construction is this?” He answered, “Our church’s construction, of course.” I said, “Our church isn’t building right now,” though everything looked fine. Then he said, “We must build someday. When that time comes, will it work to say we have money or we don’t? I’m collecting now.” I learned much from that man—much about how to live. David prayed for a lifetime. That is the sanctuary. You must make your members know what truly blocks disaster. Here Jesus gave the answer: “What you are thinking of as blessing—that is not blessing. That is not prayer. Prayer is like this.” The answer was given clearly. It must strike the members’ hearts: “Yes, I am holding nonsense and suffering!”

5. 2 Kings 6:8–23, Elisha
Look at this—what else is this? The work of blocking all disasters occurred. If you block Aram alone, you block all. At each time, all the answers that came forth were given.

6. Isaiah 62:6–12
At last, it is not Babylon. It is to block the world’s disaster. Right? “Raise a banner for all peoples; build up the highway; I have set watchmen over you; give the LORD no rest”—such covenants. It is tremendous. We must restore completely.

7. Luke 23:28, John 21:15–18
“Weep for your children for the future”—it is a word containing an immense future. This Christ—Jesus—came to Peter and, without saying anything else, told him to feed the lambs, asking, “Do you love Me?” When he said yes, He said, “Feed My lambs.”

Conclusion: The world church’s disaster♠

So what conclusion do we now come to? I think this is your final commission—you must block the world church’s disaster. Churches are closing. It is shameful. Without the gospel and with no spiritual power, they just divide and fight. They are in conflict. You must have no time for conflict. What are you conflicting about? Why divide over people’s words in the church? You must be assured that you are the protagonists who block the church’s disaster and the world’s disaster.

Regarding this, Martyn Lloyd-Jones and William Barclay looked at these three (the introduction) and called Matthew 5–7—the Sermon on the Mount—what? Do you know how they expressed it? “The proclamation of the King.” When I saw that phrase, I thought, “Yes—this is the tremendous message of the proclamation by the King of the world.” It is the work of blocking all disasters that have been in history until now by the gospel alone. Some may think otherwise, but that must be left to God. The future will speak. There were those who thought otherwise—the Jews. Right? They said no. When Jesus spoke these words, they said, “What is He saying?” History repeats the same way.

♠ Lesson 2: Changing destiny—Evangelism (Matthew 16:16) → “What to find” ♠

Now, we must tell what is important. Finally, when the time came, Jesus asked at Caesarea Philippi. He spoke of what must be found—of great importance.

Introduction—A few things appear here.
1) Philanthropy—They say He is like Jeremiah. Philanthropy is not bad—but it is not the essence of the gospel, right?
2) Legalism—They say He is like the prophets. Legalism is not bad—but it is not the gospel. The Law is the Word of God, but legalism is not the essence.
3) Mysticism—They say He is like Elijah. Mysticism—God’s grace is mysterious, but it is not mysticism. Mysticism is not the essence of the gospel. It is to express and emphasize the spiritual in the flesh.
4) Ascetic poverty—John the Baptist. Ascetic poverty is not bad—but it is not the essence of the gospel.

Because they keep teaching what is not the essence of the gospel and keep doing what is not the essence, the destiny of the entire world does not get overturned. If you hold to something else, destiny does not change. This is an enormous message. In the place named after Caesar and now Philip—Caesarea Philippi—Jesus asked.

Main—So now, if we look at our main points here: we must remember these.

1. Those who could not change destiny
If not the Christ, destiny does not change. Those who could not change destiny…

1) Great powers
The great powers, who have been the main agents of disaster until now—the Bible records this remarkably. World disasters all began from the great powers. These nations all fell, unable to change destiny. The only thing they did was war.

2) Backward nations
The 5,000 tribes—the backward nations—enslaved to this—were miserable. From the past until now, ceaselessly—some larger, some smaller—but ceaselessly they took the people of backward nations away.

3) Israel
The problem is Israel in relation to this. They could not change it. Unable to change destiny, they continually suffered.

2. Only
We change destiny by only one thing. What is it?

1) Genesis 3:15
“The seed of the woman will crush the serpent’s head”—this has been fulfilled. “You are the Christ”—this means, “You are the One who crushes the authority of Satan, the Son of the living God!”

2) Genesis 6:14
If you come into the ark, you live. There is no condition; coming in is the condition. “Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”—that covenant has been fulfilled.

3) Exodus 3:18
“On the day you give the blood sacrifice, you will be set free.” “You are precisely that protagonist, the Son of the living God!”

4) Isaiah 7:14
Again they became captives: “A virgin will conceive and bear a son, and His name will be called Immanuel.” “You are precisely that One, the Son of the living God!”—enormous.

5) Matthew 16:16
Peter made that confession. Jesus said, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood”—how could flesh and blood reveal it?—“but by My Father in heaven. You are Peter, and upon this rock I Myself will build My church”—it is stated thus in the original—“I Myself will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome you. I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” Enormous message.

3. Paul (Romans 1:16–17)
Paul held to this. So in Romans 1:16–17 he said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel”—though all persecute me, I am not ashamed; though they slander and try to kill me, I am not ashamed—“for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then also to the Greek. The righteous will live by faith…”

1) Galatians 2:20
To what stage must we come? If it becomes like this, you win. Galatians 2:20: “I have been crucified with Christ… and Christ lives in me…”

2) 2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore I have become a new creation—indeed.

3) Philippians 3:1–21
And in Philippians 3 he throws an enormous message. Until now I had so many good conditions, but I regard them shamefully—as refuse; more importantly, I regard them as harmful. The knowledge of Christ is so immense, but I did not know because of this. Therefore he spoke a message completely different from ours. We say we did much, but we did nothing; we go to grasp only what is in Christ’s hand; we need nothing of the earth; the prize of the upward call; our citizenship is in heaven; the Name who subjects all things—Paul went this far.

Conclusion: The destiny of me, my house, and the church♠

Thus the destiny of me, the church, and my work has been overturned. It will surely be so. My destiny is overturned. It truly happened for me—it changed. As for our household of former idols, God overturned it completely. After meeting you, though it impacts the world church, churches will be entirely changed. This is the blessing you must surely have. Do not remain stuck in the past; change destiny.

♠ Lesson 3: Possessing the highest thing—No other things (Matthew 16:20) → “What is urgent” ♠

Introduction—Matthew 17:1–9; Matthew 18:1–10; John 21:15–18
We must possess the highest thing—and now, “Tell no one.” Why? We must go up the Mount of Transfiguration. Only the Christ remains—not Moses, not Elijah—only the Christ. Why? Moses also believed the Christ and was saved. Elijah also believed the Christ and was saved. And He took a child into His arms and blessed him. It is highly meaningful. He even spoke these words: He said there are angels assigned to the children. Jesus said there are angels assigned to your children, to the remnants. And as mentioned earlier—what is it? “Feed My lambs.” Of course, new believers are included. “Tend My lambs”—He gave such a message.

Main—Me, what is mine, and my field
And now, very importantly, three things come out here. While we possess the highest thing that changes us completely, it comes out like this: me whom God made; what is mine; my field.

1. Matthew 28:1–20 → Authority + Always with us
What is the first? A tremendous event took place—Matthew 28:1–20. Nobody believed. Remarkably, all ran away, and when they ascended the mountain, there were only women. This is exactly the situation. Ironically, though they believed, somehow the soldiers were guarding. Here, the work took place. What must we restore here? Jesus said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me… and surely I am with you always.” We must enjoy this. He spoke it.

2. Mark 16:15–20 → The Name + the throne together
Here the most important thing—another step further—“In My Name cast out demons; lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” It is also expressed thus: “The Lord who is seated at the throne worked with them.”

3. Luke 24:13–35 → The secret of ‘with’
More important is the third—Luke 24:13–35. What is it? The disciples going to Emmaus. He explained the way the Lord is with us. He explained the secret of “with” now. Right? He had resurrected and was with them, yet the disciples did not know. They were discouraged. Even as Jesus spoke, they were discouraged—though Jesus was with them, they did not know and were discouraged. Then Jesus spoke the Word, and through the Word they realized. This is our present image. This is our current situation. We do not know the Lord who has resurrected and is exactly with us in spirit.

Conclusion: The Lord of the resurrection (the Name)♠

Thus this conclusion comes: Enjoy the Lord of the resurrection now. How do we enjoy Him? He spoke even that: “Ask in My Name; use the authority in My Name,” right? “Drive out darkness in My Name. Until now you have not asked in My Name; from now on, ask in My Name. Until now you offered beasts; here, ask in My Name, and you will receive.” It is an enormous proof. When you pray toward the darkness in the Name of Jesus Christ, it is broken. When is it broken? Check it. It must be broken. May all unbelief that shakes your church be bound in the Name of Jesus—it is to be so. See when the healing comes. This does not happen by our righteousness—by the Name of Christ—therefore you will be completely victorious.

In every age, misunderstanding arises. In the early church age, the Jews holding the Bible were mistaken. Where is the key? They do not say it, but what becomes the key is that the gospel does not please the heart. But because the gospel is prophesied in the Scripture, they cannot reject it; since the Christ was promised to come, they cannot reject that covenant. They rejected Jesus. In their minds all the commandments, all the promises, all the statutes must be kept—that is the Jew. Where did that thought go? Into the medieval church. The medieval church was the same: “Salvation depends on how much good you do”—is that not the doctrine of the medieval church? Is that right? “You are saved according to how many merits you accumulate.” It helps to catch people—to catch rats—but that does not save, nor does it remove disaster. It is the medieval church that spread disaster throughout the world. Especially Roman Catholicism—they need to realize this, yet even now\… Why do they exalt Mary? I still do not understand. “Mary is higher.” Even now—I cannot understand. What happened to their IQ? I do not understand. It is like bowing to the bus while not greeting the mother who gets off the bus. What is important—the bus? It is enough that the mother has gotten off. I cannot understand. Therefore, as I went around the world doing the evangelism movement with us, I saw the same everywhere, and personally I see that the gospel has never been testified—right? Commonly, I went to the Russian Museum, the Louvre—everywhere. Now I do not go because there is nothing to see, but at first I went everywhere. How can it be so the same? It was not arranged. How great is the power of Satan’s authority? They did not confer, yet everywhere they crush the Christ and exalt Mary. In every museum—so are the works. At this level, the gospel has never been testified. Therefore world disaster cannot but come. Especially in places mainly entered by Catholicism—Latin America—they have all collapsed. Strangely, people’s mental state is not alert. It has become strange. Disaster and darkness are this fearful. It is extremely important.

The members must have this (lecture content) confirmed. If this (lecture content) does not happen, in the end it is not so; later you will see it is not so. The disaster does not leave; my life does not change; destiny does not change. Though He gave us this immense authority and promised to be with us by this, it has nothing to do with me. You must have assurance to save those who are dying. Satan knows whether you have assurance or not. Right? Satan knows and flees when you appear. If you have no assurance and are shaken, why would he flee? Right? If—though this would not happen—a policeman has taken much bribe money from a thief, the thief does not fear the policeman. Right? He has something to give—he never fears him. Though the identity is a policeman, he is not scary. Back in our village long ago, when an inspection was coming, the police would inform beforehand: “An inspection will come, so prepare,” gathering those who did illegal things and having them bribe the police. That happened in the old days—now it does not, but long ago. Such a policeman, having eaten much money, cannot correct people’s evil. More importantly, the boss does not fear the police at all. Satan knows whether you have assurance or not. Therefore when healing patients, you must tell them clearly: If you have a terminal disease, will Satan leave you alone? Right? But God also will not leave you—therefore we pray; therefore we attach ourselves and wage spiritual battle. Those demon-possessed know plainly. Therefore you will later come to know that the authority you possess is immense. But even now it is certain.

In Lessons 2–3 we will look at the important things. From today, I bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ to have authoritative prayer all day long. I will pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, let all darkness be bound today as well. Let all disasters be bound. Let the authority of hell be bound. In the Name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

---

Today is a meaningful week as we end one year and prepare for a new one. It is also a meaningful day as, for the first time in Korea, missionaries are being commissioned toward the 5000 tribes. Wherever you go, and you pastors also, many things must be done, but it is necessary to make people come. Mainly, many who are spiritually sick want to go somewhere, but in reality there is nowhere for them to go. Now the three organizations have already well prepared places to make people come. We must quickly catch this.

And the future generations must rise, and we must make it so that they rise. That is the three courtyards. This includes the three-day weekend age. So now we have no time for disputes or fights. We must make it so that the multiethnic peoples can come.

Since today is such an important day, let us look at three things.

▣ The evangelist’s timetable
Today is Remnant Day, but before that, what is the evangelist’s timetable? This is what we must check. In what timetable must the evangelist be?

▣ The RT’s timetable
And since today is Remnant Day, what is the remnant’s timetable?

▣ The scattered disciple’s timetable
And what is the timetable of the scattered disciples?

We must look well at these timetables.

When you go to Songdo, or Busan, or Seoul’s Eulwangri, there are many restaurants. What makes me feel the most unpleasant and difficult is when they keep trying to force me into their restaurant, guiding insistently. In Busan, it is always like that. Almost certainly, this is something only our country does. In advanced nations, they absolutely never do that. Absolutely not. So I think, “Can they do business at such a level?” Even to the point of rushing out as though they will get hit by a car, they do this.

But then I went to a restaurant in Japan. The owner was wearing a name tag. On the tag was not only his name, but above it was written, “12th owner, so-and-so.” Inside the restaurant there were records of the 11 owners before him. That restaurant has been running for 500 years. So I thought, comparing it with the pitiful state of many Korean restaurants, what a huge difference.

So pastors, sometime next year, please establish two more worship services, even if at first it feels a bit burdensome. A multiethnic worship that follows the flow of the senior pastor’s message, and a healing worship that follows the flow of the senior pastor’s message. Of course there is also the worship where everyone gathers together. At first you may think, “Is this really necessary? What kind of training is this?” But absolutely not—it is crucial.

If you go to old restaurants, there are still those who have not renewed. Some places require you to remove your shoes before entering. Unless it is a very high-class restaurant, restaurants where you must remove your shoes will not last. Of course, some places make you remove your shoes just for style. But aside from that, it is far more convenient to wear shoes inside. Nowadays, when I went to a restaurant I frequented, I saw they had switched to letting customers keep shoes on. I said to the owner, “You renewed!” He replied, “The customers feel much more comfortable.” “Of course,” I thought. Before, they made you take off your shoes, warning “Be careful with your shoes,” even giving you a plastic bag to carry them. What is the point of that?

Do you know why I say this? Churches have in the same way created structures that make revival impossible. And the church leaders stand guard at those old, dead-end gates. Open your eyes and see carefully. People are truly sick and they want to come, but there is nowhere to go. And the smart students cannot come to church on Sundays, because they must pay extra to attend special classes—and all those classes are held on Sunday. We must quickly open the three-day weekend age, making it so that they cannot help but come. Among our remnants and among us are outstanding talents. But they are all left unattended. If we open something like the three-day weekend age, offering what is most needed, they cannot help but come. “Ah, but this is a countryside church.” Not so. Nowadays, everyone has cars. Saying it is too far is just an excuse. If distance were really the issue, then why do they go to restaurants?

▣ The evangelist’s timetable – Eternity
So then, what is the reason Judaism and the Medieval Church lost hold of the gospel? They lost hold of this—eternity. As long as we continue in this, it is enough.

Right now, theologians are the problem. There are many famous theologians in America. But let us ask honestly: why are American churches closing at such a rapid pace? Whose responsibility is it? Is it Trump’s responsibility? It is not. The churches in America are rapidly shutting down. So quickly we must connect here and begin evangelist training in places like America. This is the theologians’ responsibility. People who have never evangelized, who know nothing about it, became theologians and scholars. They spend their whole lives doing work unrelated to the movement of life. Of course, academically, theology must be studied. But to use it for politics, to hurt others, is that why they studied theology? Meanwhile, the believers and churches are shutting down. Europe is long gone. It is completely dead.

There were two so-called masters of expository preaching in England. Martin Lloyd-Jones, who shook the world, and John Stott. They were masters of expository preaching. But what happened to the churches in England? Did they open or close? They closed. What is this thing called expository preaching or exegetical preaching? The Bible is thematic preaching. It is about Jesus Christ. From the beginning, they went wrong. Perhaps for personal study and skill, such things may have value, but for the church, it is unnecessary. They lost hold of eternity. And thus, European churches all died.

1. Today within eternity
So it is not too late. We must find today within eternity.

2. Mission within eternity
We must find the mission within eternity.

3. The hidden things within eternity
And we must find the hidden things within eternity. As long as we enjoy this, it is enough.

1. Today within eternity
Eternal things do not disappear. As time passes, works arise.

1) 7 bartizans (Imprint → Platform)
God gave us eternal things, the 7 bartizans. If my today is within this, it becomes imprinted. And the more it is imprinted, the more it becomes a platform. Continue even now and begin from tomorrow to enjoy this prayer. There is nothing else to do. From this, your work arises. From this, your health arises.

But people do not know that if you just pray, everything is solved. They do not know this. When you pray, your brain is transformed, your lungs come alive. When you pray, immunity arises throughout your body. But because they are ignorant of prayer, they keep doing only things opposed to prayer—thinking, worrying, endlessly. They spend 24 hours like this. It is only by God’s grace that they live, but no works arise. You must remember this.

2) 7 journeys (Root → Watchman’s bartizan)
This is eternal. As you go on the 7 journeys, they do not remain only journeys—they begin to take root. And then others come. You begin to save others. Because light shines here.

3) 7 guideposts (Nature → Antenna)
Continue in this prayer. As you enjoy the 7 guideposts, they change your nature. And then they become an antenna of communication. You must always be enjoying this.

This is necessary not only for you, but especially pastors and elders must restore it. You must first be healthy. If you are always sick and weak, it is difficult to do the Lord’s work. It is not about wanting to live long.

Dr. Lee Si-Hyung once said: the average lifespan is into the 80s, but disease strikes already in the 70s. So most people spend 10 years sick before dying. He even said a strange thing—that he does not do medical checkups as he ages. Why? He saw in autopsies that even people who said, “I lived healthy, I lived to 85 or 90,” most were already filled with cancer or dementia. He said, “Not knowing was much happier. If they had known, how miserable would it have been?” That is how much people are plagued by disease.

This—7 bartizans, 7 journeys, 7 guideposts—is truly important. For us there are only two things: prayer and breathing. When you were born, you breathed. When breathing ends, you go. Spiritual breathing is prayer. Through this you must save today. Do it. Comfortably. Those who have worries—set them down. So you are not the kind of people who must strive to obtain things. That is unbelievers. You are not merely striving—you are those who move the throne.

2. Mission within eternity
Then from here comes mission. That is Romans chapter 16, and it is shown mainly like this.

1) Protector
Because of you, the evangelist of your church is protected. To say “protected” does not mean guided. To say “protected” means the evangelist in danger is protected.

2) Co-worker
And it means to stake your life together, a co-worker.

3) Host
And it does not mean to use much money. It means to help for the sake of missions, a host.

3. The hidden things within eternity
At this time, there are the people of Romans chapter 16.

1) Before eternity
God gives what is hidden within eternity. If God hid it from before eternity, how important must it be? He says He will give that.

2) Now
And even now, there are many hidden things. He says He will give this.

3) Forever
And He says He will give what will be forever.

This year’s theme, the New Year’s message, is “Change it. Find it. Establish it.” What should be changed? There may be many, but what must absolutely be done in 2025? What should be found? In 2025 what must absolutely be found? What must be established? That, during the New Year’s message, we must share together like forum.

▣ The RT’s timetable
Now, in such a time God raised the remnant. The timetable of the remnant is now four things.

1. The watchman’s bartizan
If the remnant is not established now, they will suffer all their life. This is lesson 1. If they are established now, they will succeed all their life. What does this mean? This—eternity. You must first have this. The remnant must establish this bartizan of eternity.

2. The power of the throne
And what the remnant must right now have by faith is the power of the throne. To win by lying in all ways, to succeed by all kinds of crooked means like unbelievers—that is not your level. Nearly all people are like that today. Then you cannot even tell which words are true. Every time they open their mouths, it is lies. To become such a “talented” person—that is not for you. You must have the power of the throne. No fight is possible. How can there be a fight? You must be at the level where you cannot but win.

3. Where first
Then where must this power of the throne first take place? That is what next month’s forum will be.

4. The actual throne – when it comes (the standard)
When the power of the throne actually comes, what happens? What is the standard? Words. The remnant must know this already.

1. The watchman’s bartizan (Acts 1:1–14)
If the remnant prepares now, even with little done, later in life works will arise. This is the bartizan Jesus gave in Acts 1:1–14.

1. The Triune God
So, in reality, the watchman of the remnant is the Triune God.

2. Fulfillment
And God gave you this bartizan—what bartizan? That which is being fulfilled now. The Triune God is even now fulfilling the Word, prayer, and salvation of souls. Have this bartizan. Become this watchman.

3. The method
So what is the method? How important is this? With, Immanuel, Oneness.

1) WITH
God is now with me.

2) Immanuel
He is now with us, in the church.

3) Oneness
And what seemed not to work, He works together in all things.

So for the way the remnant goes, it is not about comfort. There is no such thing as possible or impossible. There is no possible, impossible. God is with me, He is Immanuel with us, He is working Oneness. This is certain.

But perhaps the weather is a bit cold. It is only cold; it is not ruin. The weather is too hot. It is only hot; it is not ruin. You must remember this. While you are in this, God’s plan is being fulfilled precisely.

2. The power of the throne
1. Heavenly
So God gives you the power of Heavenly—the power of the throne.

2. Thronely
As in the praise we even created this word, Thronely.

3. Eternaly
And Eternaly. So He is with us with Heavenly power, Thronely power, Eternaly power. Sometimes you may just laugh and remain still. It is a process. What process? God is with me, and He is with me with this power.

In conclusion, if someone is going through great difficulties, unless they are a strange person, they are a great person. If someone is going through great difficulty, they are a great person. Would you give a graduate-level exam to a kindergarten child? Of course not. A kindergarten child only gets “What is 1+1?” Would you say, “Do calculus”? They cannot. On the other hand, would you gather graduate students and ask, “What is 1+1?” That would be a joke. So know that all of us have this—Heavenly, Thronely, Eternaly.

3. Where first
Where must this come first? This is important.

1. Genesis 1:27
It comes upon my soul. God’s image comes upon me.

2. Genesis 2:7
Not only that—He breathed into man the breath of life. Everything comes out of this—eternity. This is the evangelist’s timetable. And because we cannot miss this opportunity, it is the remnant’s timetable.

Haven’t you experienced this? Sometimes the remnant hears just once and says, “Yes, that’s right!” and works arise. But if, as a remnant, they go astray a little, they suffer losses later.

3. Genesis 2:18
And what else? Like the blessing of the Garden of Eden, works begin in my field, in my home.

4. The actual throne – when it comes (the standard)
Then, to what extent must the power of the throne become my standard? This must be taught clearly, so that we can align with it.

1. 237
It aligns with 237. That is why Jesus said, “Go to all nations.” “Go to all peoples.” “To the ends of the earth.” This must align with me.

For example, today’s work of the commissioned missionaries—this will align with 237.

2. 5000
Then, it aligns with the 5000 tribes. This is the standard. The remnant’s career, work, study, your work—later you will see that it aligns with 237. The evangelism work pastors are doing—this is aligning with 237. With the 5000 tribes. It is tremendous.

3. Transcending time and space, unprecedented and unrepeatable, the mystery of prayer

Then three changes occur. Transcending time and space. Only then does it align with 237 and 5000. Unless you know the answer of transcending time and space, you cannot understand these words. The unprecedented and unrepeatable grace arises. This is prepared for you. When you know this, you know the mystery of prayer. Hold tightly to this and enjoy it even now.

Prayer Journal: September 19, 2025
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

---

Our missionaries who are being commissioned must ultimately influence the remnants. Especially, they must influence the TCKs. Among the remnants, it is the TCKs who can conquer the world. And simply, what must we let our remnants and TCKs, our missionaries and many pastors know? It is this (7･7･7). Just continue it. You just keep doing this. The 7 bartizans, the journey, and the guideposts—just comfortably begin them every morning when you open your eyes. At first it may feel like nothing much, but later it becomes imprinted. Because this becomes the root and nature, you will be able to find every answer from here.

In my case, I divide the 7 into this breathing: when I inhale, it is what I enjoy; when I exhale, it is what I pass on to others. This is something truly amazing. Then what is the very last of the 7 bartizans? It is the three courtyards. So the church must enjoy the blessing of these three courtyards. This is the first lecture of this New Year’s prayer gathering. If this is not restored, it is not a church. Then how do you exhale? You aim it toward others, but surely this team of missionaries will arise. How many times do I do this in a day? While I am doing this all day, you are included and I am included. Just this itself is already a miracle. Isn’t that so? Even if a beggar sitting on the roadside prays 24 hours for me, it is a miracle. Am I a beggar? No, I am not.

▣ Main

When you continue this, three focuses will come out.

1. Discovery – Only
Something becomes visible. This is what we call only. Already today the message was given. This “only” appears, and it appears in this way.

1) Every day – The “only” of every day appears. This is prayer, isn’t it? You see the “only” of every day. Not just seeing it…

2) Work (events) – Because you must do work. Sometimes events happen. From there, the “only” becomes visible.

3) Lifetime – And what is more important, the “only” of my lifetime becomes visible.

These three things appear daily as grace. This must be passed on to the remnants, the missionaries must hold to it, and it must be included in your prayers. So sometimes depending on the situation you do this (7･7･7) all day, sometimes morning, noon, and evening. You just keep doing it. As you keep doing it, you begin to see. It is not difficult at all. Because you see.

2. Waiting – Uniqueness
Now, when doing this, it is not done vaguely but waiting for something. What are we waiting for? We are waiting for the kingdom of God to come. This is what we call uniqueness.

1) Functional summit – This waiting, simply speaking, includes many things, but for remnants and workers it is waiting for functionality. Unique.

2) Professionalism – Then this takes on professionalism. It inevitably becomes like this.

3) Globalization – It takes on world nature. Then you know what you must do. Absolutely, remnants must not miss this. If you are praying like this, then within your studies you see this (only). You see the “only.” Then as you keep enjoying this, you see this (uniqueness).

3. Challenge – Re-creation
Then you begin to challenge toward what God most desires in your life. This is what we call re-creation. Re-creation has many aspects, but there are three.

1) Nobody – Everybody, Nothing – Everything. From “nobody,” everything is found. Building the three courtyards is not a matter of whether I can or cannot do it. It does not exist, therefore it must be done. You save all people and everything.

2) Summit – To do this, God first gives the answer of the summit. You become the summit. To others it seems amazing. Because you have become the summit.

3) Non-competition – What is more important? Non-competition. There is no need to fight. There are many who pick fights with us, but it is useless. They are not our opponents. Our battle is with darkness and Satan, not with people. We have no competitors. Did Joseph have any competitor? No. Did David have a competitor? No. No one can compete with you. This is once again the confirmation of only, uniqueness, and re-creation. This is connected to today’s industrial missions, missionary commissioning, and the lecture.

Remnants, always enjoy this. (7･7･7) When? Don’t even calculate. Just enjoy. Then it comes out, like this (main message). It becomes visible like this. May this blessing be upon your church, your work, and your studies, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, thank You. We thank You for the grace to know what belongs to You. We thank You for blessing us to be able to do what belongs to You. We thank You for giving us strength to devote ourselves and challenge toward what You most desire. May only the gospel be testified to all the world. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

22. Dec. 2024 Immanuel Church the Second Service
Scripture Reading: Acts 11:19-30

---

Thank you. Today is our temple construction worship service, and there are a few things we must keep in mind.

At a very important time, the Antioch church was used. The reason is that they fixed the future time. First, during our temple construction you must do what the Antioch church restored.

[ Restoration of the Blessing of the Three Economies ]
We must surely restore the blessing of the three economies that the Antioch church restored.

[ Economy of Light (Offerings, Tithes) ]
First is the economy of light. For a church of light, the offerings to the church and the tithe are the economy of light. In a sense, this is difficult. All my life I saw that my mother never once skipped her tithe. It is hard. Of course it is also so when you have much, but it is harder to do when you do not have much. Every month we would look over things—she would first set apart the weekly offering and the tithe. Then there is not much left, and you live on that. I did not understand, but now I have much insight. How great were the miracles God did? Not once was anyone in our family ever sick. That is a miracle. It is no small thing to say that for decades of life there was no illness. God completely protected us. Back then the newspaper collector would come for payment; besides the newspaper bill, no one ever came to our house to collect money. Until now God has blessed us to do world evangelization. I know this secret.

[ Mission Economy (Missions – Temple) ]
And what we must surely restore is the mission economy. The most important thing here is missions and the temple that builds the three courtyards. If these two are not connected, you cannot do right missions. Therefore we are going to build a temple with the three courtyards.

[ Remnant Economy (Age) ]
From then on, the Remnants arise. The Remnant economy speaks of the economy of the next generation—the economy of the age. Because Remnants look ahead to the age that will arise and prepare, you must not judge by what is happening now. Even now, banks are turning to digital currency. Tremendous changes will come. Therefore Remnants must surely pray and see the economy of the age.

▣ Introduction – Three Events
Then we must first confirm three events.

1. The Event of Stephen
Three events appear here. What are they? “The event of Stephen.” You know Stephen’s event—he preached the gospel once and died tragically. Some, seeing this tremendous fact, even say, “That is discipline,” or “That is disaster.” God showed us the manner of Stephen’s death: (1) Full of the Holy Spirit (2) Heaven opened (3) Jesus Christ standing at the throne. He was full of the Holy Spirit, and God showed the open heaven and Jesus Christ standing at the throne. This was Stephen’s event. “Stephen fell asleep,” it says.
Regarding the one who recently went to be with the Lord in Seoul, I think this way: they themselves may not know, but if one passes while doing the Lord’s work, that is martyrdom. No one knows. When my father died because of believing in Jesus, not a single relative came. I had never seen a family like that—no one came. Normally, at least the siblings would come. Because he believed in Jesus, they did not come. And they said he was cursed for believing in Jesus—because he died early, he was cursed. Unbelievers can see it that way. I was in my first year of middle school. Truly we received blessings incomparable to those people in the world—spiritually of course, but even physically there is no comparison. They lived so painfully. They persecuted us so much that later they were ashamed to come.
The event of Stephen shook the world. To be martyred for the Lord is no ordinary matter. (Saul) As you know, Paul was within this—his name then was Saul. He was there.

2. The Event of Crisis (Acts 12:1–25)
After that, what happened was that they met an even greater crisis. How could this be? Those who only look at reality and make calculations will not receive any of God’s true blessings. Stephen died like this, and then crisis struck again—what happens then? Most will stumble. If hardships keep coming, most will run. Yet this was the time when God was making the world’s first, greatest church. This is Acts 12. At that time all the church leaders gathered at the center. They should have run, but they gathered. In chapter 12 we see them praying through the night.
Angels, Messengers Scripture clearly records that to the place of prayer God sent the Lord’s angel. To the place of prayer God sends His messenger. The same word—but the Lord sent an angel to free Peter, and sent a messenger to strike down King Herod. If crisis comes while you proclaim the gospel, know that it is the most blessed time. Do not fear. Then important words appear here.

3. “Those Who Were Scattered”
It says, “those who were scattered.” These scattered ones established the Antioch church, and as they prayed at night, amazing miracles took place. Why is this? God was making the first-ever church the world had not seen—a church with three courtyards. This is a very important timetable.
[ The Lord’s Hand ] Thus Acts 11:19 says, “The hand of the Lord was with them.” There is no more important phrase than this—the Lord’s hand was with them. Do you see the Lord’s hand?
[ The Lord’s Grace ] And in verse 23 it says, “He saw the grace of the Lord.” Can you see grace? It is different: within the church, the grace of the Lord was seen, and it was seen that the mighty hand of the Lord was with them.
[ Paul ] Then God sent Paul here. Was that a coincidence? There is absolutely no coincidence.
[ Barnabas ] God sent Paul here, and from then on he met Barnabas.
[ A Great Number of Disciples ] At that time, despite such persecution, “a great number of disciples were gathered.”
[ Blessing ] Though a great famine came upon the whole world, God blessed only the Antioch church—what blessing? He blessed them with the economy of light, blessed them with the mission economy so they could do missions, and restored the Remnant economy so they could raise the next generation.

▣ Main
Now, what kind of temple must we build? Before that, we must first receive answers. This is the great blessing to receive from the New Year. Who are these people? This is what we must surely do.

1. Those Who Changed the Bartizan
Those who changed the bartizan. This is what we must do from now on.

2. Those Who Found the Journey
Second, those who found the journey. We must find God’s journey.

3. Those Who Set Up the Guideposts
The last part is even more important: those who set up the guideposts. Paul is now seeing what Jesus taught. We will keep confirming this at New Year’s, but it is simple.

1. Those Who Changed the Bartizan
Which bartizan must be changed?
[ Satan’s Bartizan ]
It is dreadful. You will never receive answers. Jesus said, “There is a bartizan of Satan within you.” It must be changed. No matter what you do, there will be no answer until you change Satan’s bartizan. In Matthew 12:26–30 Jesus said, “How can someone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his goods unless he first binds the strong man?” And He continued, “When the Holy Spirit comes and Satan is bound, the kingdom of God has come upon you.” You must never forget this.
[ The Bartizan of the Throne ]
Then we set up the bartizan of the throne. If you only change this, tremendous works will arise.

2. Those Who Found the Journey
This we must surely do.
[ The Nephilim Journey ]
Without even knowing it, you are walking the journey of the Nephilim—being dragged by Satan. People have no idea. If the church does not know, how will others? It is written only in the Bible; if the church does not teach it, people cannot know. Therefore believers who have competence should even send reports by message to those in high places of their nation. Now we must. We must send why America has the most mental illness. In Japan mental illness swarms—sorry to the Japanese, but we must send the reason. In Korean churches, mental illness has suddenly appeared—it has increased too much. We do not know what disaster will occur. They are on the Nephilim journey. How offensive will this sound? Jesus said, “You are of your father the devil.” They are being led by him.
[ The Journey of the Throne ]
We must find the journey of the throne that no one can block.

3. Those Who Set Up the Guideposts
[ Tower of Babel ]
People of the world are setting up guideposts for the Tower of Babel that will soon collapse.
[ Guideposts of the Throne ]
We are different. We set up guideposts of the throne that will never disappear. It may look as if things are not working for you now, but God is most surely preparing. At least your eyes must open to this.

When we were young, people said our family would not make it—that our house would not succeed. The situation looked that way. But they did not make it. When we came to this town and began the pioneering, neighboring churches said our church would not make it. They were the ones who could not make it—why say we cannot? I kept hearing that. As soon as we came, from all sides they said our church would not make it. The early members—elders and deaconesses—are witnesses. Next to us they said our church would not make it. When we began “Darakbang” and spread the evangelism movement nationwide, some foreign scholar said Darakbang would not make it. “Why?” “For such-and-such reasons.” That is only your thought. He could not make it and disappeared. People simply cannot grasp this: that Satan’s bartizan is inside me, that I am walking the Nephilim journey being dragged along, and that I am currently within the soon-to-collapse Tower of Babel.

▣ Conclusion – [ 237 ] [ 5000 ]
Therefore we must actually cause the 237 nations and the 5000 people groups to come. We need more people in business to rise up, because we cannot bring the Remnants of the 5000 people groups without them. Even now, Pastor Salam’s wish is to come to Korea, but his country will not let him out. At times our own Korea does not grant permission. He truly bears a commission, yet he cannot come. He wants to come to the missions conference but cannot.

1. The Three Courtyards
To save these people, we set up the three courtyards. We set them up at 300%.

2. The Three-Day Weekend Age
From among them we must raise disciples and at least enable the Remnants to pray. This is called the three-day weekend age. I believe Paul, watching how Jesus did this for forty days and at the synagogue on each Sabbath, thought, “Ah, I must open that age.”

3. The Holy Meditation Age
We must open the holy meditation age—calling Remnants and gifted people in our church and changing the world. No one else can do it. It is impossible work—but by God’s Word it is possible. We are building this temple.
Now the churches of the world must pray. As we seek to reach the 5000 people groups, many say, “Satan is raging,” but I do not see it that way. Only those who must surely hear the gospel will remain. Thus things do not go according to some people’s wishes. Rumors say “Immanuel Church is ruined”—that though many gathered, it all collapsed and the seats are empty. Numbers are not the issue. For true world evangelization, one disciple per region is enough. Right? Let us call those people into the three courtyards. In this way we must completely change these people—change the old things, change the bartizan, and quickly help them to see the journey of the throne. If they do not understand this, it is a serious matter. Quickly help them to see and to set up the guideposts that truly bring answers. When this becomes imprint, root, and nature, then we will send them to the world to open the holy meditation age.

Many multiethnic people will precious come. They must not merely eat meals and sightsee. There are many pastors in the 237 nations—aside from the 5000 people groups—who have done no theological study at all. We must call them, change them to enjoy the gospel. Three things: our key (main message) now speaks of three. If you do not change the bartizan, destiny does not change. If you do not find the journey, you are completely dragged by Satan—you run his errands. Only when you find this does true revival arise. Then we set up the absolute bartizan and the absolute disciples. Thus, many Remnants must decide in advance. To all the saints I bless you in the Lord’s name to restore the blessing of the three economies. Immanuel Seoul may find it difficult to hold worship now because of seating, but I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to receive even greater grace. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. This week, let us hold the accurate covenant and wait for the kingdom of God. Let us restore true answers and power. Let the greatest blessing arise that changes the bartizan within me. Lead us on the journey of the throne so that we are not dragged by the Nephilim. Make my house a guidepost. Make my work a guidepost. Make my studies a guidepost. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Scripture Reading: Acts 11:1-18

▣ Introduction

Thank you.

1. What we must surely leave to and take with the next generation—only the gospel that blocks darkness and disaster and the prayer that enjoys the power of the throne for salvation

Many church leaders who are carrying out world evangelization are present here. What must we absolutely leave to the next generation? As a year passes, we should reflect. And we have many multiethnic brothers and sisters here. This is a golden opportunity—what should they take with them? It matters. Then what should our Remnants take with them? To conclude first, Israel suffered seven disasters—tragically so—and still has not realized why. There is only one answer. When our children step out into the world, they must truly take with them what the gospel is and what the prayer of the power of the throne is. If they do not carry this, they cannot overcome disaster at all. And in reality they will have no answers to prayer—because they do not know. Think about it: they do not know the gospel that blocks darkness and disaster unto salvation, and they do not know the 300% secret of prayer—the power of the throne. Therefore, as we close this year and enter the next, take this and study with it.

1) A theology that does not know the gospel and evangelism—churches closing, no seminary students, drugs, homosexuality, mental illness

Also, many pastors, missionaries, and evangelists listen to this message. Do not listen to my message—look at the Bible. Because of the mistakes of countless prophets, priests, and pastors, church doors have closed. The biggest problem is the theologians. It is not that they taught a heretical theology—they simply did not know the gospel, salvation, or evangelism. Thus churches in America are closing by the tens of thousands—this is a disaster. Europe closed long ago; the next generation does not go to church at all. For evangelists to arise, young students must go to seminary—but they do not. And are they doing well anyway? No. It is nearly all drugs and homosexuality; mental illness so severe they cannot live in their right mind. This must be stopped quickly. Even in America there are no countermeasures. How about Korea? It hardly needs to be said.

They came to church—look now. It is a miracle that these multiethnic peoples have come to our church to worship. For us to go, evangelize, bring them, train them, and commission them is hard. We must teach them only the gospel and the background, power, and prayer of the throne, so that they can survive when they go back.

2) Students who, having no answers and no strength, cannot overcome disaster

Students are suffering greatly. They have to study without strength. They may barely graduate from college, but the studies they are doing now will not match the future. They only do it because they must, but the age is changing rapidly. College life is hard—they just pretend otherwise. Lacking answers and strength, life in the world becomes even harder. One of my friends studied well but lost his mind—and he has never fully recovered. We have met such an age.

3) The disasters that befell Israel after they lost the gospel—slaves in Egypt, suffering under the Philistines, captives to Assyria and Babylon, a vassal state under Rome, and two thousand years as wanderers

When they lost the gospel, the next generation—more than once—became slaves in Egypt. Even if such a thing happened once, they should never forget, but they forgot again; and as soon as they returned, they were constantly harassed by the Philistines. Who causes this? Why are they made to forget? Another disaster came. Their children were taken captive—to Assyria, to Babylon. Not only that—upon returning they immediately became a vassal state under Rome. Nor did it end there. Israel lost their nation for two thousand years. Israel, which held many of God’s people who were to preach the gospel, lost their country for two millennia and barely recovered it in 1948, around our own Korean War. The kibbutz movement and Jewish efforts are of no use; they cannot overcome disaster. They took one-third of the Nobel Prizes—so what? More problems will come.

2. What the Jews and the churches that are closing their doors did not know

What did the Jews and the churches now closing worldwide not know? You must not be ignorant of this.

1) What the Jews did not know
(1) Original sin—leaving God and becoming slaves of Satan
In particular, the Jews did not understand original sin. Original sin is leaving God—having left Him, they became complete slaves of Satan. This was not Satan’s fault; they themselves missed it, so there was no way to resolve it. They did not know Satan’s strategies—tragic indeed. The Jews even questioned Jesus, “Why do You cast out Satan and speak of Satan?”—nonsense. Churches today ask the same: “Why talk about Satan?” They said to Jesus, recorded in Scripture, “Are You the prince of demons, that You cast out demons?” Jesus was aghast.

(2) Disaster
Worse yet, they did not know what disaster is. Things could go well, and yet disaster would strike. Our nation was under Japan and went through a single war—and how much do we still pray and consider that a disaster? Israel faced seven disasters in one year.

(3) The background of hell
Because they did not know the gospel, they did not know what the background of hell is. They knew they would go to hell—yes—but they understood it wrongly. Of course they go to hell—because they are not children of God. The real issue is that the background of their life while they live is hell. For the saved, the background while living is the throne. It is completely different.
They do not even know what a spiritual problem is. Even when the mind collapses, they have no answer.

2) The Jews’ wrong theology
The Jews’ theology and faith were wrong; theology itself became the problem.

(1) “Yahweh is the God of Israel”
Rather than obeying God’s Word, they crafted a theology and asserted, “Yahweh is the God of our Israel.” That was their theology—wrong.

(2) “The Messiah will save our nation”
Next they said, “The Messiah we await will not save all peoples but will smash the nations and save our nation.” Utterly absurd theology. They built their theology that way and taught it to their children.

(3) The doctrine of being the chosen people
They said, “We are the chosen; other nations are Gentiles.” Outrageous—it is completely contrary to Scripture, which says to save all peoples; yet they labeled all others as Gentiles—a term that originally was not positive, distinguishing chosen from non-chosen.

(4) The claim that one must keep the Law and traditions to be saved

They said, “You must keep the Law to be saved—even if you believe in Jesus, keep the traditions to be saved.” This is serious. There is no way to block the disasters coming upon them.
First, this is the fault of the theologians and many pastors, is it not? They bring disaster upon the people. Then the parents are at fault—they do not know what disaster is or how to live, and they have no strength. They barely maintain a walk of faith; then they age and marry—and meet someone similar to themselves. Similar in level. Marriage becomes harder. How long will this continue? It has nothing to do with world evangelization. When will they do world evangelization? They will not.

3) The apostles who attacked Paul, saying Gentiles must receive circumcision and keep Jewish laws to be saved

Not only that—today’s text shows another uproar. They said that Peter went into the house of Cornelius—who had been saved—and ate with him. In verse 3 it says, “You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them.” Over this, there was an uproar in the church. Peter explains at length—but they did not understand. The proof is that they kept on in the same way.

In Galatians 2, wherever Paul evangelized, the apostles were the problem—they continually attacked him. Is this reasonable? “You must be circumcised to be saved.” “You must keep Jewish laws”—they told this to Gentiles. Paul’s gospel field was the Galatian region. Even Peter came and said such things—persistently. It was strange.

3. Why Israel was ruined—the method by which Satan topples you at once

Do not be deceived. Why did this happen? Why was Israel ruined, though given the gospel? What is the biggest problem? Satan seeks to topple you—he knows exactly how to do it. He knows the method to bring you down at once.

1) Satan’s traps in Genesis 3, 6, 11—my benefit (the Garden of Eden incident), my things (the Nephilim age), “we” (the Tower of Babel)
He makes it appear he is giving you benefit—that is the Eden incident: “If you eat this, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God.” A lie. Next, Satan tells man, “You are what matters; your things matter more.” People know only “my things,” ushering in the Nephilim age. Not only that; for those slightly more “thoughtful,” it becomes “we”—we alone matter. That is the Tower of Babel—and they collapsed.

2) Satan’s molds in Acts 13, 16, 19—religion, idols, superstition, shrines

With no true way, strange issues keep arising; so people fabricated religion with their own hands—idols, superstitions, and shrines.

3) Being caught in Satan’s snare—“Satan has built a house in you” (Matthew 12); “You are of your father the devil” (John 8:44)
They are completely ensnared by Satan. You must grasp this. In our New Year’s message (won-dan) this will appear—Jesus said in Matthew 12, “Satan has built a house in you.” Frightening words. Even more frightening: “You are of your father the devil”—said to those who thought they believed well. Truly believing people heard, “Your father is the devil.”

Because they did not know this gospel, life became hard; evangelism, of course, did not happen; America’s evangelization, of course, will not happen. How can they live like that? Your work for world evangelization? Of course it will not be done. Jesus explained it: “Your father is the devil.” People were shocked.
Someone joked, “In heaven you will be surprised three times.” First, you will see someone there you thought would never come—shock. Second, someone you thought must be there is not—meaning they were not saved. Third, the greatest surprise: “How did I come to such a marvelous place?”—and you realize, “Ah, this is God’s grace.”

Know the gospel, and it is finished. We must make the Remnants know this. This is the church’s mission. Why should we pass on to the Korean church the curses Israel continually received? They make every excuse while blocking only the gospel.

▣ Main Message

I will be brief.

1. Do not give up even under persecution. The 0.1% who have the gospel blocked disaster.
First, even if there is persecution, never give up. The 0.1% who had the gospel blocked disaster.

1) Genesis 3:15—Abraham and Joseph who understood the woman’s offspring
Two people understood Genesis 3:15—“The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” The first was Abraham: “Through your seed all nations will be blessed”—spoken when he offered the blood sacrifice of the lamb, which is hard to grasp. Joseph also understood it. With this they blocked the disasters of the age.

2) Exodus 3:18—Jochebed and Moses who understood the blood sacrifice; Jethro and Rahab
Jochebed and Moses understood; Jethro, who helped, understood. On the day the lamb’s blood was applied, they escaped—on that day they came out from disaster. You cannot solve disaster by your power; only by the blood of Christ.
Thus salvation is by faith. The Jews could not accept this: “How can that make sense? These people are heretics! You must act rightly—salvation by faith? These people are mad.” But original sin is not overcome by works; it is resolved only by Christ. This must be proclaimed. Even Rahab was saved by faith.

3) 1 Samuel 7—When they forgot again and were attacked by the Philistines, Samuel offered the blood sacrifice at Mizpah
They forgot again. Though there were fourteen judges through whom the Philistines were opposed, Israel kept being attacked; disaster did not stop. “While Samuel lived, there was no war”—this phrase is tied to that day in 1 Samuel 7 when the blood sacrifice was offered at Mizpah.
It is hard to accept—blood sacrifice sounds gruesome; “the blood of the cross” is difficult to comprehend. But if we do not know this, our children die, your household collapses, and disaster cannot be avoided.

4) Elijah, Elisha, and Obadiah who understood this
Elijah and Elisha understood, and Obadiah understood. Through even one person who understands, every disaster can be blocked. You must believe this. This is the testimony of church history.

5) Isaiah 7:14—When they were ruined again, Daniel, the three friends, and Esther held the Immanuel covenant
They were ruined again. Who would do such a thing? I am certain Satan does this; his destruction is your ruin—that is why he came. So Isaiah, grieved, explained again: “A virgin will conceive and bear a son; His name will be Immanuel.” Daniel understood; the three friends understood; Esther understood. You must hold this covenant.

6) Romans 1:16–17—Paul’s confession under persecution: “This gospel is the power of God for salvation… the righteous will live by faith.”

Paul suffered greatly for this. He came from a good family and was highly educated, yet people said he was mad—because they had no spiritual sight and did not know why the whole world is as it is. In the near future, two-thirds will suffer mental illness, but they do not know. The age has become one of darkness. Even presidents have nothing to say—they do not know what to do or why this is happening. Therefore you, the 0.1%, must shine the light.

So Paul said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel. Even if you insult and persecute me, I am not ashamed. Even if I lose everything, I am not ashamed of this gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation… The righteous will live by faith.”

※ Depending on where the 0.1% are, God concentrates every blessing.

This is the first thing to remember. If you understand this, it is not that the 0.1% save others—God concentrates His blessings through them. That is the true answer. What is true revival in our church? God draws people to the three courtyards—then we must train and send them. The truly great answer is when God brings them without our even praying—how? It depends on where the 0.1% Joseph is. You must truly hold this: where the 0.1% Joseph or Moses is. Where was Paul “broken”? On the road to Damascus. Why there, of all places? Because Ananias was there. And from then on, wherever Paul—who had grasped this commission—went, God concentrated all blessings. How much you will be blessed—you will confess after the temple construction is complete. You will confess what God’s work is. Therefore hold firmly to this first point.

2. Do absolutely nothing else. Do what Christ has given.
Second, do not do anything else—do what Christ gave.

1) Seven bartizans—imprint
For 40 days Jesus imprinted the seven bartizans. Do that.

2) Seven journeys—root
He rooted them in the seven journeys. Do that.

3) Seven guideposts—nature
He caused them to establish the seven guideposts. Do that—which Jesus taught. This is the second point.

You must catch that God did everything through the 0.1% with the gospel. We do not seek blessing for its own sake; but if we do this, God will give it. We are not merchants trying to run the church as a business. But if we carry these answers, God will concentrate blessings and bring them.

What is the second point? Hold what Christ gave. In your life, the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne must be formed.

3. The person God specially prepared—Paul
Third and last, there is a person God specially prepared—Paul. You must receive this blessing.

1) Paul met Christ on the road to Damascus and settled everything (Paul was present at Stephen’s martyrdom as a spiritual witness)
On the way to Damascus, Paul met Christ and settled everything. I cannot explain it all—Paul completely resolved the answers. A note to consider: when Stephen died, Paul was there as a witness. When executing Stephen, all who agreed to his execution picked up stones and stoned him—that was the common method. Heinous criminals were crucified or decapitated, but for ordinary capital cases, they stoned. Only those who deemed the man worthy of death picked up stones. The first stone—the one aimed at the head to knock him unconscious—was crucial. The one who threw the first stone had to appoint a legal witness and hand over his outer garment; both the thrower and the garment holder were recorded. The man who took the garment was Paul. Thus he surely saw Stephen’s death. Scripture says Stephen was filled with the Holy Spirit; “the heavens were opened, and he saw Christ standing at the right hand of the throne.” Paul was present at that immense spiritual scene. That Paul then met Christ on the road and was utterly broken.

2) From then on Paul became a missionary—God attached disciples wherever he went.
From that point he became a missionary, and wherever he went, God attached disciples—an amazing thing.

3) Romans 16:25–27—To the church and people of “only gospel, only prayer,” God gave to Paul what had been hidden since eternity.

More importantly, look at the end of Romans 16, where he lists people—this is an answer you must note: “What was hidden since eternity I give to you.” Hidden and then given. The true answer is this: God hides it and then gives it. Which church will He give the blessing to save this age? To the church that proclaims only the gospel. It is not calculation—only the gospel. It is not human scheming—only prayer.

▣ Conclusion
Let me conclude. Receive this answer today, and let me close with three points.

1. Even if answers have not come, this is what you must do.
Even if answers have not yet come, this is what you must do—that is the first.

2. Even if I must die for this, I must do it—God gives the answers of “of course, inevitably, absolutely.”
Conversely, even if I must die because of this, I must do it—Stephen did so. “Because of the event of Stephen,” it says. Yet God gives the “of course, inevitable, absolute” answers.

3. God gives the 300% answers—without this, world evangelization cannot be done.
More important still, God gives the 300% answers. Without this, world evangelization is impossible.

Within this year and as you come into next year, you must hold this covenant firmly. In the second service today we will see it—but you must make this an opportunity to fully restore the three economies. While you pray throughout today, I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that the work of God’s kingdom will come even upon places you have not gone. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Open the spiritual eyes of all the saints. Many multiethnic peoples are here—let them take what is important with them. Families all over the world are hearing this message—let the true gospel be conveyed to them. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Scripture Reading: Acts 11:19

---

We must first receive the blessing to save the 5000 tribes. Many people go out to evangelize, but before going to evangelize, you must first receive the blessing that allows you to evangelize. This is extremely important.

▣ Introduction
In truth, the responsibility does not lie with the elders. It lies with the theologians and pastors. They repeatedly fail to teach the gospel.

1. Genesis 3:15 [Slavery]
This is the first gospel: “The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” They keep failing to teach this. Because of that, people became slaves.

2. Exodus 3:18 [Captivity]
Since they became slaves, God revealed His word to a chosen person again: “Go and offer the blood sacrifice.”

America, which has the most theologians, is rapidly closing its churches. The theologians and pastors must repent. Europe has already completely shut down. There are many theologians in Europe, but the seminaries are empty—no one attends. This is a disaster. And now, in Europe, there are no seminary students, no youth in the churches. The only people left are elderly women with nowhere else to go. This is a crisis.

And what’s worse? They are not even living well. Suicide rates are extremely high. Almost everyone is addicted to drugs. As for mental illness, it hardly needs to be mentioned—countless people are afflicted. And yet, the gospel is still not proclaimed.

This time, they were taken captive. It’s beyond understanding. Strangely, even the church members themselves enjoy something else more than the gospel. Think about it—once your taste is imprinted, you only desire that food. Koreans prefer Korean food. Japanese prefer their food. Europeans prefer bread and pastries. Once imprinted, other things don’t taste right.

This must be taken seriously. If we do not imprint the gospel into our remnants, if we do not imprint prayer into them before sending them out, they will suffer without exception. If remnants are imprinted with prayer, they will accomplish world evangelization. This must be remembered. Do not listen to other words. Lies must not be heard. They are all lies.

3. Isaiah 7:14 [Colonization]
So God said again: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” But now they had already become colonized.

4. Matthew 16:16 (20) [Wandering People]
At this time, Jesus asked His disciples at a place whose name was formed by both Caesar and Philip the king—truly a strange place. Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

But in verse 20, Jesus told them, “Do not tell anyone about this.” Why? Because Peter still had too much left to learn. It wasn’t even the beginning yet. From this point, they became wanderers. Their descendants were completely ruined.

No matter how smart, how well educated, without the gospel and without prayer, life becomes unbearably difficult. Yet pastors fail to imprint the gospel and fail to teach prayer. Because of this, our remnants go out into the world and suffer all their lives. Some even go abroad and fall into drugs; others end up losing their minds.

5. Romans 1:16–17
This is why Paul, though persecuted, declared: “I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes… The righteous shall live by faith.” This must be remembered.

[The Mystery of the Gospel]
So then, what is the Christian life? It is enjoying the mystery of the gospel. We must enjoy the blessing of salvation, and the mystery of the gospel must be enjoyed as the essence of our walk of faith.

1. The Three Feasts
God first spoke of this to Moses: the three feasts.

Passover: The day when applying the blood brings salvation.
Pentecost: In the wilderness, you overcome by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Feast of Ingathering: The great background of prayer is the power of the throne. God already proclaimed this in advance.

2. Bartizan, journey, guidepost
Jesus Himself spoke of the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost.

3. Paul – Acts 19:8
There was one who truly understood all of this—Paul. Acts 19:8. Remember this well: sanctification is not about becoming like a Pharisee but about becoming like Christ. Sanctification exists in other religions too—“live a good life.” But for us, sanctification means following Christ.

▣ Main Message – [Concentration] [Prayer]
From now on, you must engage in at least one time of concentrated prayer each day. Older believers must do this to maintain their health. Concentration. For remnants, their brains will begin to come alive when they do concentrated prayer. This is essential—at least once a day.

In my case, I spend almost the entire day in concentrated prayer. My situation demands it. After finishing this, I must prepare for Sunday, then prepare for other things. So for me, it is practically 24 hours. For you, once a day is enough. In fact, for remnants, even once a month would bring results—remnants are that spiritually advantaged. Older grandmothers may concentrate yet see little fruit, but young remnants will see powerful results with just once. That’s how advantageous it is.

After the age of 25, the brain and lungs begin to slow down. That is why you must continue concentrated prayer. In doing so, pray through the introduction we’ve covered. Within this, the bartizan of prayer, the journey, and the guidepost must be established. The Triune God’s bartizan must be set within me. As these three answers arise, I must walk this journey. Along the way, it is crucial to establish guideposts. These guideposts are tied to church growth, world missions, the prosperity of your industries, and even to the “300%.”

1. Calvary (John 19:30) – True disciple
Jesus said, “It is finished.” At Calvary, which guidepost must be set? That Christ has already finished everything. Those who understand this are true disciples. Meeting just one true disciple can bring about world-shaking works.

Elders must keep this in mind: be kind and helpful to all, but seek out the true disciple. Pastors, likewise, must remember this. Pour out love and help to everyone, but spiritually focus on the true disciple. Why? Because outside of this, people collapse. Some even end up leaving the church entirely. Many grew up in pastor’s families yet left because they never heard the gospel.

The true disciple marks the true beginning. “But my problems aren’t finished yet.” That is the beginning. “Why is my family like this?” That is the beginning. “Why can’t I study well?” That is the beginning. If you miss this starting point, you lose the way. In every region, when you enter a university, find just one true disciple—that’s all. The rest doesn’t matter. The crowd cannot be sustained anyway. This is the answer: the true disciple.

2. Mount of Olives
Here, we set another guidepost. At the Mount of Olives, the absolute bartizan was established. What was given here?

Forty – Mission.
For forty days, Jesus spoke intensely about one thing: the mission.

The Throne – From the throne, answers descend.
God’s Kingdom – Your studies and work must be transformed into the work of God’s kingdom.
The Work – Never lose hold of this.

3. Mark’s Upper Room
At Mark’s Upper Room, five critical things unfolded:

The three feasts.
Multiethnic ministry.
The future: visions, dreams, and prophecy.
The rise of 3,000 disciples.
The daily and weekly gatherings.

Of these, the most important is the three feasts. From the beginning, this was the covenant. And as they held onto it, 3,000 disciples arose. Remember this well. Even your studies must follow this pattern.

4. Antioch – Turning point of the age
At Antioch, the age was turned. A new era began. Notice this well: while daily events matter, the true turning points of history are even more important.

Those scattered because of Stephen’s persecution gathered there. And to that place, God sent Paul. World missions began. Remnants, you need not worry about your future. All your worries are groundless.

5. Asia – Acts 13:1–12 (300%)
Finally, they went to the mission field for the first time: Asia. In Acts 13:1–12, they went out fully prepared with “300%.” Evangelism must be done this way. Your studies also must be done this way. Never miss it. Otherwise, world missions cannot be fulfilled.

Why? Because unbelievers—the Nephilim—have taken all the money. A few blockchain experts control the financial world now. What we are worrying about and preparing today will be useless tomorrow. We must prepare for the future. You are the protagonists of 2030 to 2080. Your era is still ahead. Prepare with 300%.

The standard is simple: receive the perfect leading of the Holy Spirit. That is prayer. Believe firmly in the answer, and if you don’t see it yet, wait until it is revealed. Through the work and fruit of the Holy Spirit—this is 300%.

6. Macedonia – Turning point
This was when the door was blocked. This is a crucial turning point. Especially for those in industry, you must gain this power. The best method? If you cannot see it, do not proceed. Why keep doing what is not clear?

7. Rome – The absolute bartizan
Finally, Rome. This, above all, was the “absolute bartizan.” Establish absolute bartizans everywhere. Worry about nothing—not even about your studies. Without 300% preparation, you won’t even be able to survive, much less evangelize. You must have strength.

Remember: this is not just a percentage. It is the reality. 100% toward myself, 100% toward the field, and 100% toward the future—that is 300%.

Parents will give their opinions, schools will offer good advice, but do not be deceived. Do not worry. Whatever university you attend, pray, and your talents will emerge. Build your 300%. With 300%, you will inevitably gain wealth. You need resources to give offering. You need resources to fulfill world missions. Money is not the essence—it is only a token, a sign.

So remember: next year, our elders and businesspeople must truly establish this. These guideposts are crucial.

▣ Conclusion
Therefore, the conclusion is this: the work will be fulfilled through the scattered ones.

December 21, 2024 Evangelism Studies with Remnants and TCKs
Scripture Reading: Genesis 45:1-5

---

[ Genesis 45:1-5 300% ]
This is the field where Joseph became prime minister. Without a doubt, here this (300%) answer is revealed. Why can we not receive this?

1. 300% reason [ prayer ]
We must first know the reason for 300%. Why must it be so? First of all, you must know what prayer is.

1) Bartizan (imprint) Prayer is imprinting in me the bartizan that God has given.

2) Journey (root) Prayer is rooting down the journey that God has given. When the three-day weekend age opens, you must teach it to the children.

3) Guidepost (nature) Prayer is making the very important guidepost become my destiny, my nature.

2. 300% content [ what ]
You must know the content of 300%. If you know prayer, if you know the content, then now, [what] must you prepare?

1) Talent – expertise 100% If you know prayer, you will see your talent. For this talent there must be 100% expertise.

2) Age – field nature 100% And 100% field nature to see the age. If you pray, you will see it. This is what remnants must remember.

3) Continuation – system 100% Now, the important thing is that this must continue, so it is a system. This is very important. 100%.

3. 300% method [ how ]
The method of 300%. How must it be done?

1) Editing (Word) If a talent is discovered, or something is discovered, you must continue editing until the Word is fulfilled. This is very enjoyable. “Enjoyable” may sound strange, but it is very worth doing. Remnants must have this as their nature. I still continue a few things. From 37 years ago until now, breathing, continually, I still continue to study. Prayer continually, evangelism continually. If there is another, fishing 24 continually. Even without going. I cannot go because of time, but even without going I turn on the channel. The ocean appears, it looks good.

2) Designing (prayer) Then something appears. Seeing that, you design. You put it into prayer.

3) Designing (field) Then now, “Ah, I can do it like this.” This design comes. This is designing while seeing the field. This (editing – Word) is much material, this (designing) is prayer, this (design) is seeing the field.

If remnants do like this, it is fine. Therefore before you go out, this (300%) must be prepared. Genesis 37:1-11 is the story of Joseph, and inside this is the 300%. Already as a child Joseph held onto this. Then it becomes very easy. It must become easy—what if it is too difficult?

When I came to this neighborhood, exactly, 300%. During two weeks I spoke, “What I will do in the future.” Simply put, I held a revival meeting. For two weeks. That is this 100% (Main 2). Then I analyzed this neighborhood. Exactly analyzed, 100% the field. And I opened the Word movement in about 300 places simultaneously. Now, the problem is that this must continue. That is the system. So what came out is what we are now doing—the Core. The Core was not originally gathered like this, but after finishing with those considered important persons who are the core figures of our church, we just gathered. After finishing, when we gathered it became 9:30, 10:00 like this. Then we spoke. Little by little spoke about evangelism, continually spoke. This was not burdensome, but enjoyable. Then if we gather past 10, what happens? It becomes 10:30, 11:00 easily. At that time another trend arose, “Let’s go eat something.” We went. Today one deacon’s house prepared it, another house prepared it… at night. Crazy about 10 o’clock. So we went. But it was so enjoyable. After finishing late at night we went to visit, then in that house they prepared something with devotion. Then we ate again. As this rumor spread, people kept coming to the Core meeting. Observing carefully, some with perception were coming from afar. So, inevitably, before we met in rooms, then we moved to the church building to gather. As we kept gathering like this, it spread nationwide and worldwide. This is how answers are received, not that we make them by force. I feel most pity for those who make things by force. Why suffer making things by force? If you truly pray, then you just go where God leads. All remnants must be like this.

Therefore, in fact, though it looked as if the 7 remnants were in urgent crises, when you look at the content they had great composure. Right? How much composure? They said, “It was not my brothers who sold me.” But they did sell him, right? It was not the brothers who sold him. David, in the midst of death, if you hear his confessions, he had composure. Why? Because he had the sure answer. David also already had it from childhood. From shepherding sheep he had expertise in it, and expertise in the Word and prayer. He had it all. So, in order to protect the sheep, he had complete field nature, he had to have it all. With that he faced Goliath. It was not even a fight. If he faced Goliath again? He would win again. You must prepare this (300%). Remnants must prepare like this.

I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus that you will become the main figures of the three-day weekend age. Let us pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. May today all day long the work of God’s kingdom be fulfilled. Though we are here, may it be fulfilled in the field of God’s kingdom. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
