REVELATION OF LOVE

Leave a reply

God Bless youA LEGACY OF LOVE
The greatest motivation for change in a person’s life is love. That “God is love” (I John 4:8, 16) means we have a legacy from the Father to develop and pass along to others. Our past few lessons have been about “A Lasting Legacy” and today’s lesson topic takes us to the zenith of what a legacy is all about. God gives what we most desperately need and He intends for us to share that gift with others whose needs are equally desperate. The three areas of scripture used in this lesson can help to formulate the major theme of the entire Bible and help to adopt it as the foundation for our life and ministry. People want to be loved and they are searching. A legacy of love can be more clearly communicated by understanding God’s love.
Read 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 Love Compelled
Paul is telling us the motivation for his ministry and mission. Paul was responding to the false teachers who had infiltrated the Corinth church and were trying to usurp his leadership as an apostle of the Good News. He did not seek financial gain or self-promotion. He had founded his ministry entirely on love. Paul summed up his motive for ministry in the phrase “for Christ’s love compels us”. Based on that love, Paul risked his life and eventually gave his life in the effort to tell other people about Christ’s love for them. Paul arrived at this fundamental insight after a long journey. His conversion on the road to Damascus culminated in what were previous suspicions that his theology was terribly flawed. He could never be good enough to earn God favor, but here was the insight: what he would never be good enough to earn through works was already available to him through God’s love and grace. Paul’s response was reasonable and life changing. He realized what he could receive through faith what he could never earn. God’s favor was His gift because of His love, not because of Paul’s manufactured goodness.
A further insight concerns the nature and purpose of “Christ’s love”, namely, it is an active force to change people, not an overly sentimental emotion. God’s love, born out of His nature, must become the Christian’s driving force. God’s love is not merely to be received and enjoyed; it must be shared and multiplied among all people. God’s expansive love for all people led Paul to another insight. He realized that “one died for all” that is, Christ died for every person. What do we think is meant by “all died”? (Though all people need Christ’s sacrifice and offer of grace, only believers experience the benefit of His death.) All people need the life Christ offers through His love. In verse 15, the motive of Paul’s ministry and his message are seen to be the same, for both flow from the cross. The death of Christ was the most important fact in Paul’s thinking. Paul saw Christ as the second Adam (Romans 5:14-17), God’s new beginning in the creation of humanity. As such, Christ was the representative of the human race. What happened to Him happens to all in some sense. Those who accept their unity with Christ by faith take part in the death He died for them. The love of Christ is a motivation for living in a way that honors God. Believers “no longer live for themselves, but for the One who died for them”.
Read Acts 17:1-4 Love Communicated
I really like the book of Acts because it tells great stories and gives an accurate account of the birth and growth of the Christian Church. Acts is a sequel to the Gospel of Luke. Because Acts ends so abruptly, Luke (the only known Gentile author of the New Testament) may have planned to write a third book, continuing the story. Chapter 17 demonstrates the practice of the principle that drove Paul’s mission. This passage opens a window into Paul’s second missionary journey. Traveling the main highway Paul, along with Silas and Timothy, left Philippi, headed toward Thessalonica, and made brief stops in two towns along the way. Luke does not say so but preaching likely took place in these smaller towns, even though they did not have synagogues. Paul then headed for larger population centers to bring the Gospel to as many people as possible. Thessalonica, formed in 315 BC and one of the wealthiest cities, because the modern city of Salonika. Then as now, it was the main city of Macedonia.
Paul’s regular practice was to preach in synagogues as long as Jews allowed it. Often those who weren’t Jews would come to these services to hear Paul. Thessalonica was the first city Paul visited where his teachings attracted a large group of socially prominent citizens. Wisely, when Paul spoke in the synagogues he began by talking about the Old Testament writings and explaining how the Messiah fulfilled them, moving from the known to the unknown. Why do we think this was a good practice? (It begins where the people are- at the time of the message.)
Two principles stand out in the passage. First, a teacher must know the scriptures in order to share it, and secondly, we see Paul’s ability to communicate to the people. Paul demonstrated an ability to adjust his approach to the audience. He got their attention by sharing a stunning revelation “that the Messiah had to suffer and rise from the dead”. First-century Jews expectation of the Messiah did not include any idea of suffering, certainly not death on a cross. (I guess they forgot or did not believe Isaiah.) Paul’s insistence on sharing the entirety of the gospel, including the cross, caused violent responses from his countrymen the first missionary journey (Acts 14:5, 19), and more violence was in store in Thessalonica. The church Paul planted grew quickly, but from AD 50 to 51, Paul was forced out of the city by a mob (17:5, 6, 10). He later sent Timothy back to Thessalonica to see how the Christians were doing. Soon afterward, Paul wrote two letters to the Thessalonian believers, encouraging them to remain faithful and to refuse to listen to false teachers who tried to refute their beliefs. Paul always communicated love of God effectively.
Read 1 Thessalonians 1:2-10 Love Continued
The seeds Paul planted in Thessalonica grew and multiplied in wonderful ways. In fact, the opening verses of 1 Thessalonians are some of the warmest and most affirming in all of Paul’s letters. Characteristic of his letters is a lengthy opening summation of his prayers for the church. Paul was both brilliant and prayerful, and he would be the first to emphasize the primary importance of the prayer quality. Our love for others should be undergirded by our consistent prayer for them.
One potentially confusing phrase is “your election”. This highlights God’s initiative in salvation. Salvation did not begin with us and is impossible in our own strength. But having begun with God’s “election:, we are enabled through His gift of free will to respond positively to His initiative. Paul’s letters are in full agreement with the entire Bible’s twin affirmation of God’s sovereignty and humanity’s free will. One does not negate the other. We should pause to express gratitude for all the previous generations who insured our opportunities to share in this legacy of love. We can think back to the earlier generations that stretch all the way back to Paul or others of the earliest Christian missionaries. We are merely part of the latest generation to be compelled by that love. Paul’s effectiveness in keeping that love to continue rested not “in Word only, but also in power, in the Holy spirit, and with much assurance” (v.5).
What caused Paul to be so grateful to God? It was the “faith”, “love”, and “hope” of the church. These words describe the total response of the believer- to what God has done, is doing, and shall do! The life of faith is also the life of love. One cannot be a believer without loving God and his brother- no matter who that brother is. Hope describes the eager expectation and confident waiting of the believer for the future which God has promised to His children. (Not hope in false or short-lived things!) Paul wrote about “work of faith” or, better, the “work produced by faith”. This is what James was telling us, that is often confused with salvation by works. Paul felt compelled to tell everyone that salvation began with faith in Christ and salvation could never be earned. However, that faith made the believer a unified whole, with no difference between secular and spiritual work. Everything that one does as a believer is done in faith and as an expression of love. Hope expressed itself in steadfastness, endurance, perseverance. Christians in Thessalonica confidently believed that God was going to lead them into a glorious future- and so should we! Thessalonian Christians maintained their faith in the midst of great affliction by pagans in the city. It was not easy for them to respond to the gospel with all these persecutions but the news of their faithfulness spread to many other places. They demonstrated some of the greatest faith that continued the love of Christ by any early Christians. This is a great example for us.

GOD DOES ANSWER PRAYERS

Leave a reply

GOD’S PROMISE OF ANSWERED PRAYER
The majority of Americans claim to pray. So this means many seek God’s assistance or intervention for everything imaginable but many of these people are not Christians. Many may not even believe in God. But as I have written before, not every prayer is answered as desired. God wants us to pray and He will always answer persistent prayers. He knows our heart and He knows what we truly need. Jesus taught us to pray with persistence and trust that our heavenly Father will answer. Luke gives us some important incite about the proper attitude and approach to prayer to be effective.
Read Luke 11:5-10
In Luke 11:1 Jesus’ disciples requested that He teach them to pray, as John the Baptist had taught his disciples. Jesus’ response was to teach Hid disciples the Model Prayer (Luke 11:2-4) and giving them a parable (vv. 5-8) and some instructions (vv. 9-13). Jesus was encouraging disciples to pray persistently because of God’s goodness and His willingness to give good things to those who trust and believe in Him. However, Jesus knew the disciples (and us) need more than the words to pray. Jesus was teaching that all who pray need the proper attitude- from the heart- and the proper approach- humbly. Jesus knew His disciples needed to know how and why they should pray. One of the key aspects of prayer is that it should be done with an attitude of bold persistence.
Matthew’s account of the Model Prayer is longer and more familiar. The setting is also different; Matthew 6:9-15 is part of the Sermon on the Mount. The shorter version of the prayer in Luke was given by Jesus in response to the disciples’ request that He teach them to pray. This shows that the Model Prayer was given primarily as a model for praying rather than as a formal prayer to recite. It is important to remember that both accounts were given by Jesus.
Luke’s account of the Model Prayer (NLT) 11:2-4: Jesus said this is how you should pray. “Father, may your name be kept holy; May your kingdom come soon. Give us each day the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation.”
When Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He made forgiveness the cornerstone of their relationship with God. God has forgiven our sins; we must now forgive those who have wronged us. To remain unforgiving shows we have not understood that we ourselves deeply need to be forgiven. Think of some people who have wronged you. Jesus would ask: Have you forgiven them? How will God deal with us if He treats us as we treat others?
After teaching the disciples how to pray, Jesus turned to a more difficult task: to teach them the need to pray. This is the point of the parable of the friend at midnight (vv.5-8). The disciples had asked Jesus to teach them to pray, which may imply that the main need is to know what to say when praying. The key, however, is recognized the need to pray. We learn to pray by praying. The one who prays out of a sense of need is the one who truly learns to pray. The main sense of need was great. Hospitality was a sacred duty in that society; and the host had nothing to set before the hungry traveler, who arrived unexpectedly and late. The host’s sense of need was so great that he disturbed his friend and neighbor’s sleep to ask for help. “Importunity” (NRSV) in verse 8 refers to his shameless knocking at his neighbor’s door so late at night.
Verses 9-10 apply the story in verses 5-8. Just as the man’s deep need drove him to seek help from his friend, so should our need drive us to God. When it does, we can be sure God will hear us. The parable of the friend at midnight has much in common with the parable of the unjust judge in Luke 18:1-8. Each teaches the need for continuing in prayer. Each is told in a form which on the surface seems to imply that God must be persuaded to answer our prayers by our continual and persistent requests. This, however, misses the point in both parables. The need for persistence in praying is our need, not God’s. The point, therefore, is definitely NOT that God must be persuaded to hear our prayers by our persistence. The man in the parable was persistent because (1) his need was desperate and (2) his relationship with his neighbor was good. Prayer is persistent for the same two reasons. When the need is real, no one needs to tell us to keep praying about it. Likewise, because we know that God loves us, we continue to pray to Him even when the specific requests do not seem to be answered.
Persistence, or boldness, in prayer overcomes our insensitivity, not God’s. To practice persistence does more to change our heart and mind than God’s, and it helps us understand and express the intensity of our need. Persistence in prayer helps us recognize God’s work. So the goal of persistent prayer is not to try to convince God to see our point of view or to try to change His mind. Instead, persistent prayer is to put us in a position of humble submission and trust before God.
What kinds of results do we expect when we pray?
Read Luke 11:11-13
While still teaching on the subject of prayer, Jesus turned His attention from praying steadfastly to the subject of how God desires to answer our prayers. The analogy in verses 11-13 is like a parable. Verses 5-8 and 11-13 are “how-much-more” parables. If a friend inconvenienced himself because of persistent cries for help, “how much more” will our loving Father give us what we need? If an earthly father does his best to respond to his child’s request for something to eat, “how much more” will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him? (v.13).
God is the giver of every good gift. He gives many of His gifts apart from prayer, but our deepest needs can only be met through prayer. The best gift God ever gives if the gift of His presence to be with us. The gift of His Spirit’s presence and power in our lives is the best answer to prayer, and this gift is continually given even when many of our requests seem to have gone unanswered. Even though good earthly fathers make mistakes, they treat their children well. How much better our perfect heavenly Father treats His children! The most important gift Jesus could ever give us is the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:1-4), whom He promised all believers after His death, resurrection, and return to heaven (John 15:26).
This points up another reason why genuine prayer is persistent. Some needs change from day to day, but communion with God is an unchanging characteristic of a life of faith. Whatever the urgency of specific petitions, the need for daily communion with God remains constant.

REVELATION OF HUMILITY

Leave a reply

A LIFESTYLE OF HUMILITY

Our culture does not value humility. People generally view it as weakness, self-debasement, or a lack of competitive drive. Self-promotion is seen by most people as a virtue. Sometimes arrogance is interpreted as self-confidence, or vice versa. Jesus challenges His follows to journey on a road less traveled –called humility. However, He wants us to have self-confidence when we go out to witness. So like a lot of things, there can be a fine line between self-confidence and humility. Let’s see if we can get guidelines we can use and understand.

Read Philippians 2:1-4    Humility Defined

When the Philippians Christians learned Paul was in prison, they sent a church member with a gift for Paul. Epaphroditus was to stay with Paul to assist him and tell Paul about the conditions in the Philippians church. Epaphroditus became critically ill but recovered after some time. So Paul sent him home early with this letter to the church. One major reason Paul had for his letter was to prevent a division in the church because of disagreement between two female members (Phil. 4:2-3)- Euodia and Syntyche (we are not told the reason for their quarrel). Paul also told the church that he thought he would win his trial and be freed. Then he challenged believers to live in a way that honored the gospel and to remain faithful. So these verses (1-4) are a continuation to emphasize how to treat one another. Paul’s stressing spiritual unity, asking the Philippians to love one another and to be one in spirit and purpose. God’s purpose in Christ is to create a community, bound together in a common life, characterized by mutual love and encouragement.

Paul enumerates factors and attitudes that promote unity among believers. What are some of them? (Encouragement in Christ, consolation of love, fellowship with the Spirit, and affection & mercy!) This leads us to humility, which is a strength not a weakness. Humility is healthy and it leads us to be comfortable with ourselves and strong enough to make a deliberate commitment to others’ welfare. It is self-knowledge and self-acceptance that refrains from judging others but looks for good in them. The attitude or virtue of humility enables us to consider others as more important than ourselves, looking out for their needs and interests as much as we do our own. Selfishness can ruin a church, but genuine humility can build it.

Read Luke 14:7-11  Humility Taught

These verses are a parable, not instructions about social etiquette. Greater than any social embarrassment (v.9) will be the shame of being excluded from the feast in the coming kingdom of God. The Pharisee’s pride caused them to expect the chief seats at that feast (13:23), but their pride will exclude them, and their paces will be taken by those who make no claims for themselves (13:28-30). Thus those who exalt themselves will be humbles, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. The point of the parable is that self-seeking pride is contrary to God’s order o things. So Jesus was using a wedding banquet to teach a lesson in humility.

To set this up properly, Verses 1-6 tells us that on a Sabbath day (important point) a leading Pharisee invited Jesus to a meal at his house. This was just a meal invitation not the wedding banquet used in the parable. The Pharisees were Jewish laymen dedicated to keeping all the laws and they composed the largest party among the Jews, who exerted great influence among the people. During the meal, the Pharisees watched Jesus closely to seize an opportunity to accuse or criticize Him. Jesus healed a disease man who was at the meal, who was likely there as a normal uninvited guest- arranged by the Pharisees. Prior to the healing, Jesus (as usual) turned the situation around and asked the Pharisees to decide if Jesus was to heal the man on the Sabbath or if they were going to be callous and cold and let the man die. The Pharisees never gave Jesus an answer! The connection is that Jesus used the situation to address the gathering to present the parable in verses 7-11 to convey a profound spiritual truth. He expressed an eternal truth that the person who seeks to gain honor, prestige, or position at the expense of others is not in God’s favor. The person who humbles himself will receive God’s exaltation.

We miss the point, however, if we see these verses (7-11) as just another strategy for ultimately gaining the “chief seats”. Genuine humility is not a strategy to get what we want. Humility is an approach to life that sees self in a proper relationship to God and others. So a proper attitude goes hand-in-hand with humility. Truly humble people compare themselves only with Christ, realize their sinfulness, and understand their limitations. Humility is not self-degradation nor to be used for personal gain; it is realistic, self-assessment and commitment to serve.

Read John 13:3-5, 14-15  Humility Exemplified

While Jesus, crucifixion is the greatest sacrifice, His act of washing the feet of the disciples may have been His greatest act of humility. Jesus was the model servant and He showed His servant attitude to His disciples. Think about this- God in the flesh is willing to serve. We as His followers must be servants, willing to serve in any way that glorifies God. There is a special blessing for those who not only agree with the purpose of humble service to Christ’s way, but who also follow through and do it (vv. 13-17). Jesus’ actions serve as a symbol of Spiritual cleansing (vv. 6-9) and a model of Christian humility (vv 12-17). Through this action Jesus taught the lesson of selfless service that was exemplified supremely by His death on the Cross.

SERVING-JESUS’ EXAMPLE

Leave a reply

BEING SERVED OR SERVING

Society has an upside down picture of greatness. People often judge true greatness by how much or power a person possesses. As model of greatness, we often choose athletes who have both power and money, but whose lives often are either selfish or immoral. Others point to film stars who have reached the pinnacle of their profession yet are many times consumed with their own little worlds. Some Christians emphasize humility and teach others that greatness is the opposite of humility. Untrue; pride is the opposite of humility. True greatness is found in serving others and living a life that will last beyond this life.

Luke 22 unfolds Judas’ plot to kill Jesus (vv. 1-6). While Judas plotted to betray Jesus, Jesus prepared His disciples for His death by observing a special Passover meal to celebrate with His disciples (vv. 7-13). When the hour came for the Passover meal to occur, Jesus gathered with the disciples in an upper room and assumed the role of host in the Passover ceremony with His disciples. He explained that He would not drink the wine of this ceremony again until the kingdom of God comes (vv. 14-18). In order for us to redefine greatness, we should begin with the example Jesus gave during the last supper to determine if it is found in serving or being served.

Read Luke 22:19-23 Remember Jesus’ Examples

Jesus embodied true greatness. He exhibited humility and a servant’s spirit throughout His earthly lifetime, continuing those qualities during the final weeks as He prepared to go to the cross. Jesus gathered with His disciples to be a servant both in the Passover meal described in our verses but also by washing the disciples’ feet. Luke’s account of the Last Supper mentions two cups- verses 17-18 and verse 20. The other accounts mention only one. Luke notes that the cup of verse 20 was taken “after supper”. He likely used these words to set apart the institution of the Lord’s Supper in verses 19-20 from the Passover meal itself. Luke 22:19-20 and the other New Testament references to the institution of the Lord’s Supper (Mark 14:12-26; Matt. 26:17-30; 1 Cor. 11:17-34) show why Christians observe the Lord’s Supper rather than the Passover. The divine deliverance of Israel from Egypt foreshadowed the deliverance from sin and death made possible by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Reminder: the Passover was originally when the Israelites spread animal blood over their doors to prevent their first born from being killed when God used this as the final method to free Moses and his people. So Luke and the other Gospels clearly tell us Jesus used the bread and cup to represent His body and blood as the Last or Lord’s Supper.

Verse 22 shows two important aspects of the death of Jesus. From God’s point of view, the death of Jesus was God’s plan for human redemption. However, those who were responsible for His death are held accountable for what they did. Judas was not a helpless pawn in a divine drama; otherwise Jesus would not have pronounced judgment on him for betrayal. This was followed in verse 23 by being told that the disciples argued (HCSB) or inquired (KJV) among themselves. The disciples (remember Luke the author here was not a disciple), wrapped up in their own concerns, didn’t perceive what Jesus had been trying to tell them about His approaching death and resurrection. Jesus wanted the disciples to get their eyes off themselves and get ready for what He was about to experience. He wanted them to think about their commitment to Him and His teachings. The disciples showed little humility not following the example of their Savior who was about to die on the cross for their sin. Deep down, they surely had to know the potential for betrayal rested in each one of them. In fact, the only disciple mentioned at the cross was John (Luke 19:25-27). Apparently the disciples began to look at each other with suspicion, as if they would never have it in them to betray Jesus. They should have looked at the humility of Christ who served them the supper. Do you know why we use the term “Lord’s Supper” and not “Communion”?  (The definition of Communion includes “sacraments”, which is a reference to bread and wine actually becoming Jesus’ body and blood. We believe these are only symbols, so the Lord’s Supper is a more accurate term.)

Read Luke 22:24-27 Avoid Worldly Perspectives

The word “also” in verse 24 shows that the disciples moved from their discussion of who would betray Jesus to an argument about who deserved to be regarded as greatest. This fact that they would have such as argument at this time shows how out of touch they were with their Lord. The debate revealed their worldly perspective of greatness. If greatness is determined from the world’s point of view, it would include fame, power, money and position. The disciples quickly got off target by scrambling for position and power. They forgot the example Jesus gave them in the bread and wine. Jesus contrasted the worldly view of greatness with what they had witnessed at the Passover meal. He said that “kings of the Gentiles” exercised dominion over those that they ruled. Jesus used the term “benefactors” which often applied to those who had absolute authority over their subjects, whether gods or kings. These “benefactors” would often look out primarily for their own pleasure, good, or well-being. Jesus laid down His life for good of those who would follow Him, while the earthly rulers often took the lives of their subjects for their own whims. Jesus’ desire was that His disciples embrace His attitude of service, not the world’s way of domination.

So what did Jesus mean by “whoever is greatest among you must become like the youngest”?  (The youngest are considered the lowliest with the least standing. The way up for Jesus was down.)The greatest in Jesus’ order were those who took on the responsibilities of the younger who served their elders. The Jesus asked a leading question in verse 27 to help the disciples catch the point. He mentioned the person at the table and the one serving the table, then, He asked which of the two was greater. In our society normally the greatest are being served. Ask any waiter at a restaurant, and this idea of entitlement from the people they serve the waiter will encounter this attitude. Jesus explained the reversal of importance from the world’s view when He said “But I am among you as the One who serves”. Jesus described true greatness as humble living and self-sacrifice. Every Christian needs a servant’s heart.

Read Luke 22:28-30 Adopt a Kingdom Perspective

Jesus promised to give the disciples rights and privileges as leaders in His kingdom. They had adopted a Kingdom perspective to order their lives. Jesus would build His kingdom of such people. He called His disciples “the ones who stood by Me in My trials”. The disciples had remained with Jesus in spite of plots by religious leaders against His life. They had seen the fickleness of the crowds yet remained with Him. They invested in His kingdom rather than trying to build their own. Those who want to be served are more interested in their own kingdoms. Those who serve are more interested in His kingdom. In spite of the disciples’ dispute about who should be the greatest, it was still about their desire to serve in His kingdom.

The disciples had adopted a Kingdom perspective instead of a worldly one. So Jesus was saying that He would make a covenant with them for rewards in heaven. The idea (with a different Greek word) appears in Luke 12:32 for the Father making covenant with His people to give them the Kingdom. In this case Jesus makes the covenant and confers the Kingdom. Jesus offered to us the same Kingdom that the Father had given to Him. Jesus was indicating that the disciples would participate in the kingdom of God., which had present and future implications. The promise of future rewards in verses 28-30 needs to be viewed in light of verses 24-27. Jesus spoke words of assurance in verses 28-30. Because the disciples had continued with Him, He was assuring them they would share in the joys of the coming kingdom. However, He did not pace any of them in places of honor above others.

In the new Israel (New Heaven), the twelve will occupy places comparable to the places of the twelve tribes of ancient Israel. In heaven, we will experience the fullness of God’s kingdom without an environment inclined toward sin and trial. Jesus was describing two future rewards for us for living with a Kingdom perspective on earth. First, the faithful would eat and drink at His table in His kingdom. Second, the reward for living with a Kingdom perspective involved a responsibility in heaven. Jesus said that those who belong to His kingdom would sit on thrones. In Revelations 5:10, John heard the song of the 24 elders that said of the redeemed, “You made them a kingdom and priest to our God, and they will reign on the earth”. This means in the future we will reign over all the earth (Luke 22:29-30).
