18. Jan. 2025 Remnant & TCK Study of Evangelism
Scripture Reading: Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8
Now, it is time to raise global talents as disciples of RU or RTS.
What does this mean? Looking at the flow of the age, must only those who will become pastors come to theological seminary? In institutions like RU or RTS, we must bring in talented individuals and teach them the basic theology of evangelism. There must be some transformation. Of course, those who will become pastors must come, but others who are not on that path must also receive training. Especially, many church leaders have been trained, but after they become church leaders, it becomes difficult for them to continue receiving training. Many ordained deacons, for instance, are almost left unattended. So I have even requested that in Busan and Seoul, we gather early in the morning for a breakfast elders’ meeting—have breakfast together and give the message. Because they are so busy, elders cannot attend training, and then they fall behind spiritually. They also cannot spend as much time in prayer gatherings as the deaconesses. Without realizing it, they can fall behind in prayer. If they do not understand remnants, they fall behind in the future—eventually, they fall behind in everything. So I gathered breakfast elders’ meetings to share meals and deliver the most essential messages. Therefore, our remnants must once again confirm this.
▣ Introduction
[Picture]
What kind of picture must we draw? First, there is something we must discover. Everyone has everything else, but they do not have the Gospel. This is not a simple statement. Those who succeed without knowing the Gospel—when they become members of parliament, doctors, or judges—suffer until the day they die.
[CVDIP]
The discovery of that is called the Covenant.
Then, do you not see the people and the world that are under disaster? Do you not see that in your family line? You must block that. That is called Vision. Vision is not something you simply hold; it becomes a vision when you see it. And it is different from what the world calls “vision.” You hold the covenant that becomes 24—that is called a Dream. You must understand this well. Our 24 becoming reality is the dream.
Then what follows? The work must move by God’s power. That is called the Image—the image of God. You must not lose this. You must leave behind the masterpiece of eternity. That is called Practice.
This is 24 (D), 25 (I), and eternity (P). In front (CV) are the covenant and vision. You must hold it this way.
[7·7·7, Concentration]
Hold to this and concentrate with 7·7·7.
[Study, 300%]
Then professionalism, field application, and future direction will appear in your studies. This is 300% preparation.
Because many people went out without knowing this, in some ways, RU and RTS must apply such a strategy. In cooperation with the youth and young adults ministries, we must perhaps create short-term seasonal programs like a winter school to include this framework. It should not be done separately but together with the youth and young adult ministries—implemented in schools like this.
Why? Think about RU. It has been completely neglected. Even in America, there are many pastors who never studied theology. I was shocked. In Hawaii, I asked a pastor, “Did you study theology?” He said, “No.” Hawaii is not even a rural area—it’s a city! I asked, “Then how did you become a pastor?” He said, “The senior pastors held a meeting and told me to do it.” What a kind neighborhood. “You’ll be the pastor from now on,” they said. That was enough. So, many elders who must receive important blessings have been neglected. They are no longer in a system to receive training. This must be resolved.
▣ Main: The Reason
1. 237
We must save the 237 nations.
2. 5000
And we must save the 5000 tribes.
3. The age of wanderers, refugees, TCK, CCK, NCK
Also, we must save the age of wanderers.
Simply put, many difficulties will come to global refugees in the future.
Especially TCKs, CCKs (those in completely opposite cultures), and NCKs (those outside any cultural sphere)—they must be saved.
1. 237
1) Invasion
The powerful nations among the 237 countries continue to invade. It is the same now as it was before.
2) Underdeveloped nations
People in underdeveloped nations are captured and treated as slaves, victims of human trafficking.
3) Israel
The problem is that Israel, which does not have this answer, ends up serving the world. If our remnants do not realize this, they will live and die serving the world. Absolutely not. If elders are not careful, they will die serving the world.
Therefore, this year, we must set a clear goal. We have already done so: the 5000 tribes—clearly. We will now call the 5000 tribes, train them, and send them back.
If possible, each church should have at least one representative from among the 5000 tribes—train them and send them back.
Because we cannot enter all 5000 tribes ourselves, we must call them, train them, and send them.
That is why RU and RTS are so important. Please think carefully about this.
2. 5000
How are the 5000 tribes situated?
1) Slaves
2) Captives
3) Colonies
That is their state—every one of them.
3. The age of wanderers, refugees, TCK, CCK, NCK
That is what Paul saw.
Acts 17:1
In the synagogue—he proclaimed the necessity, inevitability, and absoluteness of Christ.
Jesus is the Christ. Christ is needed; Jesus is the Christ. Who is Jesus? He is the Christ. Why? Because Christ is necessary.
Acts 18:4
The phrase “on the Sabbath” means prayer and teaching.
Acts 19:8
Answer—he taught about the kingdom of God.
This must absolutely be done.
▣ Conclusion_ The Secret
Then you will win without fighting. Even if you compete, you would lose—but we win without fighting.
Therefore, this year, workers and remnants, make a resolution. It is nothing else—three clear resolutions:
A resolution regarding my work, my field, and my church.
When you make that resolution, the work of God begins.
Let us pray.
Prayer. We thank You, God. This year, let us first stand firm in the resolution to receive answers and blessings. Before doing the Lord’s work, let us receive answers first. Before evangelism and missions, let us see God’s blessings. Let this be the beginning of decisive resolution. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
