◆ Introduction ▶There are 7,000 promises (prophecies) in the Bible and they have been accurately fulfilled. That is the Word of God. What is the most important promise of the Bible? It is the promise that God will send the Christ. ▶In order to live your walk of faith correctly, you must hear the voice of God, the Word. (1) Paul was the leader in the field of academia, a teacher of the law, a Pharisee, a leader, and a Roman citizen. However, he had a problem that he could not resolve. (2) On the way to persecute believers of Jesus, he met the Christ. He knelt before Him. Paul came to experience the Christ (king, prophet, priest), the spiritual realm, and the fulfillment of the Word. This is our walk of faith. (3) That is why no one was able to block Paul. The Jewish people, Rome, and even Macedonia could not block Paul. We must be taken hold of by the Word. ▶How must the church officers be taken hold of by the Word? ◆ Main discourse 1. Heavenly mandate (天命) ▶We must hold on to the heavenly mandate given to us by God. God has an absolute plan for you. That is the heavenly mandate. From God’s perspective, you are the most precious people. Hearing that voice is the heavenly mandate. We can only live our walk of faith when we receive the heavenly mandate. (1) On the road to Damascus, Paul heard the voice of God. He received the heavenly mandate (Acts 9:15, Acts 11:25-26, Acts 13:1-4, Acts 16:6-10, Acts 19:21). (2) Moses received the heavenly mandate on Mount. Horeb. Take the Israelites out of Egypt! (3) David realized right away when he was young. As a result, answers had no choice but to come. 2. Calling (召命) ▶For those who have received the heavenly mandate, the second thing that follows is calling. There is an internal calling regarding salvation, and an external calling regarding what it is that we must do. (1) When Stephen was put to death, Paul was the witness. Because of that, the church faced a great hardship, but the church officers gathered to reestablish the church. (2) That is what Paul took part in. There, Paul met with Barnabas. (3) Through that, he was able to organize all of the messages that he had received. (4) That is how Paul is commissioned as a missionary. 3. Commission (使命) (1) What is the problem of mankind? It is Genesis 3, 6, and 11. It is our commission (mission) to change this in the name of Christ. It is simple with the name of Christ. (2) When Paul went as a missionary, the first person he met was a sorcerer. In Macedonia, he met a fortuneteller, and in Ephesus, he saw tremendous idols. That is culture. Changing this is our commission (mission) (Acts 13, 16, 19). (3) Regardless of success, personal hardships come. 6 reasons, 6 states of the unbeliever. We must give the answer regarding this. ◆Conclusion ▶Paul was taken hold of by the Word of God... God’s Word is living and actively working even now. This evidence will come. I bless you that these blessings may begin for you.

◆ Introduction ▶Disasters continue to come upon the earth. Within this, unseen to our eyes, Satan plays an active role. Before people die and go to hell, they receive the influence of hell. The way to solve this problem is Christ. If you truly hold on to this covenant, your spiritual eyes will open. If you pray, you will gain spiritual strength and the Word will be fulfilled. When God’s Word comes upon you, God’s message and the heavenly mandate will be given to you. From this point on, the Word will continue to be fulfilled. When this happened, you will see the calling and the commission (mission) of God’s Word being fulfilled in you. ▶Jesus took those who had this promise to the Mount of Olives. He gave an important promise in that place-- (1) Wherever we go, God will break the forces of darkness, work by His Holy Spirit, and mobilize His angels to protect us. These three things are what we call the kingdom of God. (2) How Judah and Rome will be destroyed (3) He promised how He will save these people. He also promised Acts 1:8. 1 John 2:10-20, The Holy Spirit will reveal to us even the things we do not know. ▶The message of the Mount of Olives has been relayed to you. ◆ Main discourse 1. Baton of blessings (1) Acts 1:14, Those who gathered in Mark’s upper room were the ones who had this covenant (introduction). In evangelism, the most important thing is seeing the spiritual flow. Nothing will be able to harm those who have seen this flow of blessings. (2) Acts 2:1-13, When the day of Pentecost came (3) Acts 3:1-12, In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth… (4) Acts 8:4-8, To Samaria… This is the flow of blessings. (5) Acts 9:1-43, All throughout the fields centered on the church officers (6) Acts 13:1-4, Door to world missions is opened. (7) Acts 16:6-10, Finally, to Macedonia, Acts 19:21, To Rome, Acts 23:11, 27:24 2. Spiritual watchman ▶God has called you as the spiritual watchmen. (1) Genesis 3 (Fruit of Knowledge of Good and Evil), 6 (Nephilim), 11 (Tower of Babel) are continuing even now. However, because people don’t know this, God has called you as the watchmen. (2) Acts 13, 16, 19 – This changed into a culture. (3) From this point on, the hidden personal problems begin to come. 3. Army to block the disasters of the age ▶You will play the role of the watchmen to protect this world and the army to block the disasters by holding on to the baton of blessing. (1)New Age movement (2)Free Mason- demonic culture (3) Integration movement – The evil spirits will work. Age by age, disasters came, and we must block this. ◆Conclusion (1) Do not be afraid, do not be silent (9) (2) For I am with you (10) (3) Because I have many people in this city (10) – This is your commission and work. ▶If you just have this spiritual mystery, God will work. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my witnesses to the ends of the earth! All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me. Pray in my name. You have received this heavenly mandate (royal seal).

Weekly Message Flow (2013.11.03.-2013.11.09.)

“Darakbang Message Material Bank http://www.jcking.net Internet Dept."

(1) 1st Pulpit Message (November 3rd)→ Athens Evangelism (Acts 17:16-18) ▶ Thank you for allowing me to testify only the resurrected Christ who died on the cross and not my

knowledge or background. Through Christ, who is the only one who can block fate, the background of hell, and disasters, help me confirm my fundamentals, basics, and foundation; enjoy the greatest blessing; and resolve. Help me to enter into God’s answers as I daily seek and confirm God’s blessings through only Christ. Help me enjoy the blessing of the king, priest, and prophet as I hold onto the covenant of Christ that frees me from my spiritual problems and the works of Satan. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

(2) 2nd Pulpit Message (November 3rd)→ Blessing of Meeting (Acts 18:1-4) ▶ Thank you for allowing me to meet God, which is the greatest meeting, through Christ, and for the

new start of my life. Help me to daily solve the 12 problems in the gospel and to receive the blessing of the cross of Calvary, the blessing of the kingdom of God in the Mt. of Olives, and the filling of the Holy Spirit to discover myself and save all. When problems or crises come, help me to see the great blessing God prepares and enjoy evangelism and the blessing of meeting in that situation. As I enjoy true answers in the meetings with disciples, let me enjoy my past as the platform of blessings and the meeting of the future generation and world evangelization. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

(3) Evangelism Planning Team (November 3rd)→ Regional Message Lesson 44: David who Longed for the Construction of the Temple (1 Chronicles 29:1-19)

① 1 Samuel 16:13 – from that day on – was very important for David. Before that day (Psalm 78:70-72), he succeeded in every small work he did, he was a person of prayer, and he prepared his character of not even losing one sheep. Therefore, from that day on, God sent Samuel to give him the vision and message of being king, and David put the Ark of the Covenant in his heart.

② David’s most earnest desire was to prepare for the temple that would house the Ark of the Covenant (1 Chronicles 7:1-2, 8-9). David realistically enjoyed God’s power. God blessed David just by looking at his heart.

③ We must leave behind the temple where our future generation can experience culture, walk their life of faith in the gospel, daily gain strength, and have the vision.

(4) Tychicus Team (November 3rd) → All (Talent), Studies (Mine), One Thing (Everything) ① Help the remnants see their talents while showing them the entire picture. ② Help the remnants find what is theirs inside of their studies. ③ We must teach our remnants to do one thing properly. Everything is within this. ④ When the Tychicus team looks at the field, they must prepare to give the answer to the 12

problems and wait for the time schedule. Prepared disciples will come when the time schedule comes. Here, through that person, we must help them concentrate on one thing (absolutely have them have personalization).

(5) Church Officer Graduate School (November 3rd)→ Church officer who will save the church with one thing (Acts 18:1-4)

① Acts 2:10, the visitors from Rome (Priscilla and Aquila) held onto one thing-The experience of Calvary, Mt. of Olives, and Mark’s upper room.

② Have devotion for the church and raise up people through this power. ③ True evangelism and missions will come out (Acts 18:2-3 one field, 1 Corinthians 16:19 one region,

Romans 16:3-4 one nation). ④ Conclusion- At this point, you will enjoy the authority that is always with you even when you are

still, you will receive the blessings of the throne of winning over the forces of darkness wherever you go, and you will enjoy the power of saving to the ends of the earth.

(6) Gyeongnam Changwon Regional Concentrated Evangelism Training (November 5th)→ 24 Hours of the Evangelist-Imprint+Only+Early Church Minister

▶Lecture 1: 24 Hours of the Evangelist-Imprint (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) ① The greatest word for the evangelist’s 24 hours is “imprint.” Start the new imprints that change the

incorrect imprints (motives, powerlessness), and hold onto the heavenly mandate that transcends commission (7 Remnants, Hebrews 11, Early Church, Paul).

② Therefore, we must save those who face the religious aftereffect; those who have diseases in their hearts, spiritual diseases, and physical diseases; and those who have fallen into drugs, gambling, and bad habits. When you have this commission, God will allow you to enjoy His amazing works that overcomes the forces of darkness and the background of the throne.

▶Lecture 2: 24 Hours of the Evangelist-Only (One Thing)

① Everything is inside of only one thing. Therefore, people were able to resolve to enjoy and share only the gospel.

② Starting today, have 3 types of only- Have the only that solves the past problems (history of powerful nations, family line, individual-12 problems). Pray the prayers of tears that break down the forces of darkness+have the only of today that enjoys the power of only. A great thing is inside of the small works that you do, and everything is inside of one thing. From this point, the important experience of Acts 1:14 will come+match the direction of only regarding the future and pray the prayer of only thanksgiving (Acts 2:1-47, Acts 11:19-30, Acts 13:1-4, Acts 16:6-10, Acts 19:1-7, Acts 19:8-20)

③ 3 answers will come if you are enjoying the blessing of only- The answer of uniqueness, the answer of the summit, and the answer of the evangelism disciple (missionary) will come.

▶Tychicus Meeting: Ministers of the Early Church ① Accept the entire picture and hold onto the works you have to do- Pastors and church officers

must understand the situations of the people in the field; understand the culture, religion, and economy of that region; and quickly understand Genesis 3, 6, and 11. Then, the works you must do will come out.

② Seek out the ministry that is needed the most in that region. To do so, analyze the people, workplaces, and specializations there. This is the greatest prayer.

③ Connect those people who you find in the field to the church and to the things they need the most. Help them be able to have success in worship (hold onto the 7 blessings), relay the parts of the pulpit message you received grace in, and help them be able to pray for the church announcements.

④ Conclusion- Help them to have success in the small things, have success in one thing, and conquer all things with Acts 1:1-14. These are our goals.

(7) Beauty Missions Dept. Retreat (November 6th)→ Spiritual Strength and Skills+Beauty and Missions (Evangelism) ▶Lecture 1: Spiritual Strength and Skills ① Go towards the gospel summit (come out of your past and the 12 problems, have the strength of

today Acts 1:1-14, go with the strength of the future Acts 2:1-47). ② Go towards the skill summit (enjoy specialization-subjective, rational-scientific, objective-truth,

success in the small things, success in one thing, and only success) ③ Go towards the spiritual summit (challenge towards the greatest blessing through prayer,

challenge for uniqueness, evangelism disciple) ▶Lecture 2: Beauty and Missions (Evangelism) ①Look at God’s plan- 90% of churchgoers are wandering. Do what is rightful. The majority of people

is marginalized and neglected. Do what is needed. There are prepared disciples inside here. Save and lead these people. This is absoluteness.

② Then you will see what God has prepared (regional church for all, Acts 13:48, nurturing foreingers) ③ God’s goal- Enter into the missions entrepreneurship and elites of the entire world. ④ Conclusion- Start the imprinting prayer (Immanuel) of enjoying this blessing. (8) Business Message (November 9th)→ Experience of the Life of the Evangelist (43)- The Commerce (Trade) That Must

Be Done First (Acts 2:9-11) ①Whenever and wherever you go, quickly do three things- You must know the worth (of yourself,

answer, exchange), and you must know how to connect the things above and things below (connecting the proper content in the proper time).

②Then the side (WITH) will be possible (find and relay the most needed content, reason, and method)

(9) Study of Evangelism (November 9th)→ Experience of the Life of the Evangelist (42)- Another Mystery of the Evangelist (Genesis 3:5)

① Church Officer Graduate School- Standard of the Church Officer ② Regional Evangelism Specialized Camp- Mystery of the Field (Flow)

(10) Core Message (November 9th)→ Life of the Evangelist (43)- You must Find the Uniqueness of Missions to Receive True Answers – Tae Kwon Do Missions (Acts 4:12)

① Tae kwon do is the field for world missions. Seek out the experience, answer, and commission of uniqueness.

② Go towards the gospel summit, skill summit, and spiritual summit to make the world regional church and missions entrepreneurship.

(11) Regional Message (November 9th)→ Lesson 45: Rebuild the Lord’s Temple (Haggai 1:1-11)

♠Scripture Reading (Hag. 1:1-11) 1In the second year of King Darius, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying, 2 “Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, saying: ‘This people says, “The time has not come, the time that the LORD’s house should be built.”’” 3 Then the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 “Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, and this temple to lie in ruins?” 5 Now therefore, thus says the LORD of hosts: “Consider your ways! 6 “You have sown much, and bring in little; you eat, but do not have enough; you drink, but you are not filled with drink; you clothe yourselves, but no one is

warm; And he who earns wages, earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” 7 Thus says the LORD of hosts: “Consider your ways! 8 Go up to the mountains and bring wood and build the temple, that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,” says the LORD. 9 “You looked for much, but indeed it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says the LORD of hosts. “Because of My house that is in ruins, while every one of you runs to his own house. 10 Therefore the heavens above you withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit. 11 For I called for a drought on the land and the mountains, on the grain and the new wine and the oil, on whatever the ground brings forth, on men and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.” ▶ The greatest work in the history of the chosen people was preparing the place to give sacrifice (worship) to God. They put this into action through 3 times in history. When they were freed from Egypt and headed towards Canaan, God commanded Moses to build a tabernacle and the articles that were needed to be installed in the tabernacle. Also, after Israel was established as a strong kingdom, Solomon, the son of David, built a temple with the preparations that David had made. The temple that Solomon constructed was burnt down when Judah was destroyed by the attacks from Babylon in 596 BC. Then in 537 BC, by the leadership of Zerubbabel and the high priest Joshua, the Jews who were in captivity returned to Judah and constructed a temple. However, they used the distractions from outside as their excuse and stopped the temple construction for 15 years, and focused on constructing their own homes or welfare facilities while their personal lives were getting impoverished. Then in 520 BC, prophet Haggai appeared and persisted on rebuilding the temple. 1. Return from captivity and the start of rebuilding the temple ▶ The Persian king Cyrus who destroyed Babylon ordered the people of Judah to be released, and for them to construct the Jerusalem temple. And he also allowed giving offerings for their construction wherever they are. In addition, he let all of the articles that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon took away from their temple to be returned to them (Ezra 1:1-11). Responding from this, the head of the house of Judah and Benjamin, the Levites, and those who have been moved by God offered treasures, livestock, and offerings. Joshua (Jeshua), the son of Jehozadak the high priest, returned to Jerusalem with about 50,000 people, and started on rebuilding the temple on top of the same ground which Solomon had built the temple on. This was 536 BC. They gathered the masons and carpenters from Sidon and transported cedars from Lebanon through Joppa. They raised Levite men who were over 20 years old to watch over the temple construction. The priests stood in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites, the sons of Asaph, with cymbals, praised the Lord. However, they weren’t financially established, so the scale of the temple was much smaller than Solomon’ Temple. The priests, the Levites, and many heads of the fathers’ houses have seen Solomon’s Temple, and wept with a loud voice when the foundation of the temple was laid before their eyes. However, many younger generations shouted aloud for joy (Ezra 3:1-13). The rebuilding of the temple that started this way was hit with a strong obstacle.

2. Stopping of the temple construction (1) Those who resisted and opposed to rebuilding the temple.

▶ Those who resisted and opposed to rebuilding the temple were the people of the Northern Israel kingdom that was destroyed by Assyria. They requested to participate in rebuilding the temple, but they were rejected, and they started to oppose to rebuilding the temple (Ezra 4:1-2)

(2) Persistent sabotage ▶ They blocked the construction plan by bribing King Cyrus of Persia (559-530 BC), and making King Darius (522-486 BC) give the order for the men to cease until the command is given from him again (Ezra 4:17-22). Although there was no reference to temple construction in this letter, it was written that the letter was hurriedly relayed to Jerusalem and the works of temple reconstruction was also ceased (Ezra 4:24).

3. Temple reconstruction that started again ▶ Rebuilding the temple and the city walls are the fulfillment of God’s covenant. Although the Samarians and numerous people around them opposed to this and gathered their greatest powers to block the Israelites, who can dare to block God’s works? To a man’s mind, the work was delayed and there were tremendous trials, but nothing can collapse the promise of God.

(1) Impoverishment of the lives of the people ▶ While the Jews pushed back the temple construction with the excuses of their enemies, they focused on their own lives, but even their personal lives became impoverished. If you look at the word that God gave to Haggai, it says, “You have sown much, and bring in little; you eat, but you do not have enough; you drink, but you are not filled with drink; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” (Hag. 1:6) The disciplinary action that was given by God because of ceasing the temple construction was that the Israelites faced great financial difficulties due to their harvest decreasing.

(2) Reproach and command of God given through Haggai ① Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, and this temple to lie in ruins? (Hag. 1:4) ② Consider your ways! (Hag. 1:7) ③ Go up to the mountains and bring wood and build the temple (Hag. 1:8)

(3) Zerubbabel and Joshua the high priest obeyed the voice of God through the words of prophet Haggai (Hag. 1:12). God stirred up the spirits of the leaders and the people, and they came and worked on the temple construction (Hag. 1:14), and the rebuilding of the temple that was ceased for 15 years was finally finished in 515 BC.
