(A Book of All Time)God’s continuing involvement in mankind’s affairs:

God has spoken – Revelation - nasabi na ng Diyos

God speaks – Continuing Relationship - Patuloy na sinasabi n’ya o nag sa salita pa.

Luke 5:5 NIV

Simon answered, “Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything.

> But because you SAY so (at your WORD),

> I will let down the nets.”

2. Work of JESUS

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 15:17-20

17]At kung hindi muling binuhay si Cristo, kayo'y hindi pa nalilinis sa inyong mga kasalanan at walang katuturan ang inyong pananampalataya.

18]Hindi lamang iyan, lilitaw pa na ang lahat ng namatay na sumasampalataya kay Cristo ay napahamak.

19]Kung ang pag-asa natin kay Cristo ay para lamang sa buhay na ito, tayo na ang pinakakawawa sa lahat ng tao.

20]Ngunit ngayong si Cristo'y muling binuhay, ito'y katibayan na muling bubuhayin ang mga patay.

1 Peter 2:24-25Christ himself carried our sins in his body to the cross, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness. It is by his wounds that you have been healed.

1 Pedro 2:24

Sa kanyang pagkamatay sa krus, pinasan niya ang bigat ng ating mga kasalanan upang tayo'y mamatay na sa kasalanan at mamuhay ayon sa kalooban ng Diyos. Kayo'y pinagaling na sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga sugat.

1 Pedro 2:25

Sapagkat kayo ay tulad ng mga tupang naliligaw, ngunit ngayon kayo'y nanumbalik na upang sumunod sa Pastol at Tagapangalaga ng inyong mga kaluluwa.

Now IN CHRIST we are destined:

Eph. 2:10

To do good works-His Works through us

“ For we are His workmanship, created IN CHRIST JESUS FOR GOOD WORKS, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”

Mga Taga-Efeso 2:10

Sapagkat tayo'y nilalang ng Diyos; nilikha sa pamamagitan ni Cristo Jesus upang iukol natin ang ating buhay sa paggawa ng mabuti. Iyan ang layuning pinili ng Diyos para sa atin noong una pa man.

3. Witness of the Holy spirit.

Acts 2:39

“For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”

- He is God eternally existent.

- Active throughout history.

- Foretold by all prophets.

- Empowered Jesus’ ministry.

Romans “ For whom He foreknew He predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Rom 8:29

“…and the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one...and I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You love Me will be in them, and I in them.”

John 17: 22 & 26

"Winning our Family to the Lord"

Mark 5:18-19 NIV

18] As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him.

19] Jesus did not let him, but said, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.”

Marcos 5:18

Nang sumasakay na si Jesus sa bangka, nakiusap ang dating sinasapian ng mga demonyo na siya'y isama niya,

Marcos 5:19

ngunit hindi pumayag si Jesus. Sa halip ay sinabi niya sa lalaki, “Umuwi ka na at sabihin mo sa iyong mga kamag-anak ang lahat ng ginawa sa iyo ng Panginoon, at kung paano siya nahabag sa iyo.”

THINGS WE NEED TO DO TO WIN OUR FAMILY.

1. PERSISTENT PRAYERS.

Romans 10:1-2 (NLT)

Dear brothers and sisters, the longing of my heart and my prayer to God is that the Jewish people might be saved. I know what enthusiasm they have for God, but it is misdirected zeal.

Mga Taga-Roma 10:1

Mga kapatid, ang pinakananais ko at idinadalangin sa Diyos ay ang maligtas ang Israel.

Mga Taga-Roma 10:2

Sapagkat saksi akong sila'y nagsisikap na maging kalugud-lugod sa Diyos. Mali nga lamang ang kanilang naging batayan.

2. BUILD CONNECTIONS.

1 Corinthians 9:19-23 NIV

19] Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible.

20] To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law.

21] To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law.

22] To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.

23] I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 9:19

Malaya ako at di alipin ninuman; ngunit nagpaalipin ako sa lahat upang makahikayat ako ng mas marami sa Panginoon.

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 9:20

Sa piling ng mga Judio, ako'y namumuhay tulad ng isang Judio upang mahikayat ko sila. Kahit na hindi ako saklaw ng Kautusan, nagpailalim ako rito alang-alang sa mga nasa ilalim ng Kautusan, upang mailapit ko sila sa Diyos.

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 9:21

Sa piling naman ng mga Hentil, na hindi saklaw ng Kautusan ni Moises, ako'y naging parang Hentil upang sila'y mahikayat ko rin. Subalit hindi ito nangangahulugang hindi ko sinusunod ang mga utos ng Diyos, sapagkat ako'y nasa ilalim ng kautusan ni Cristo.

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 9:22

Sa piling ng mahihina sa pananampalataya, ako'y naging parang mahina rin upang mahikayat ko sila. Ako'y nakibagay sa lahat ng tao upang sa lahat ng paraan ay makapagligtas ako ng kahit ilan man lamang.

3. CHANGE YOUR LANGUAGE.

Proverbs 10:11 (NIV)

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but violence overwhelms the mouth of the wicked.

Mga Kawikaan 10:11

Ang bibig ng matuwid ay bukal ng buhay, ngunit labi ng masama ay nagtatakip ng karahasan.

Proverbs 15:1 (NLT)

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger.

Mga Kawikaan 15:1

Ang malumanay na sagot, nakapapawi ng galit, ngunit sa tugong marahas, poot ay hindi mawawaglit.

Mga Kawikaan 15:2

Ang dila ng may unawa ay nagbubunga ng kaalaman, ngunit ang bibig ng mangmang ay bukal ng kahangalan.

Proverbs 15:4 (NLT)

Gentle words bring life and health; a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit.

Mga Kawikaan 15:4

Ang magiliw na salita ay nagpapasigla sa buhay, ngunit ang matalas na pangungusap ay masakit sa kalooban.

4. SERVE YOUR FAMILY.

1 Corinthians 9:19 (NLT)

This means I am not bound to obey people just because they pay me, yet I have become a servant of everyone so that I can bring them to Christ.

1 Corinthians 9:19 NIV

Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible.

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 9:19

Accessing Favor from God

2 Kings 2:15

Luke 2:52 NIV

And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

2 Mga Hari 2:1

Dumating ang oras na si Elias ay kailangan nang kunin ni Yahweh sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo. Noon ay naglalakad sila ni Eliseo buhat sa Gilgal.

2 Mga Hari 2:2

Sinabi ni Elias, “Maiwan ka na rito at ako'y pinapapunta ni Yahweh sa Bethel.”Ngunit sinabi ni Eliseo, “Saksi si Yahweh, ang Diyos na buháy, hanggang buháy ka, hindi ako hihiwalay sa iyo.” At magkasama silang pumunta sa Bethel.

2 Mga Hari 2:3

Sinalubong sila ng mga propeta roon at tinanong nila si Eliseo, “Alam mo bang ang panginoon mo'y kukunin na ngayon ni Yahweh?”“Alam ko, kaya huwag na kayong maingay,” sagot niya.

2 Mga Hari 2:4

Sinabi ni Elias, “Eliseo, maiwan ka na sana rito sapagkat pinapapunta ako ni Yahweh sa Jerico.”Ngunit sinabi niya, “Saksi si Yahweh, ang Diyos na buháy, hanggang buháy ka, hindi ako hihiwalay sa iyo.” Kaya nagpunta silang dalawa sa Jerico.

2 Mga Hari 2:5

Pagdating doon, si Eliseo ay nilapitan ng pangkat ng mga propetang tagaroon at tinanong, “Alam mo bang ang panginoon mo'y kukunin na ngayon ni Yahweh?”“Alam ko. Huwag na kayong maingay,” sagot niya.

2 Mga Hari 2:6

Sinabi muli ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Maiwan ka na rito sapagkat pinapapunta ako ni Yahweh sa Jordan.”Ngunit sinabi niya, “Saksi si Yahweh, ang Diyos na buháy, hanggang buháy ka, hindi ako hihiwalay sa iyo.” At nagpatuloy sila ng paglakad.

2 Mga Hari 2:7

Sinundan sila ng limampung propeta at sila'y tinanaw sa di-kalayuan nang sila'y tumigil sa tabi ng Ilog Jordan.

2 Mga Hari 2:8

Hinubad ni Elias ang kanyang balabal at inihampas sa tubig. Nahawi ang tubig at sila'y tumawid sa tuyong lupa.

2 Mga Hari 2:9

Pagkatawid nila, sinabi ni Elias, “Sabihin mo sa akin kung ano ang ibig mong gawin ko para sa iyo bago ako kunin.”Sumagot si Eliseo, “Kung maaari'y ipamana ninyo sa akin ang dalawang bahagi ng inyong kapangyarihan.”

2 Mga Hari 2:10

Sinabi ni Elias, “Mabigat ang hinihingi mo. Gayunman, kapag nakita mo akong kinuha, mangyayari ang kahilingan mo. Kapag hindi, hindi mo makakamit ang hinihingi mo.”

2 Mga Hari 2:11

Patuloy silang nag-uusap habang naglalakad. Walang anu-ano'y pumagitna sa kanila ang isang karwaheng apoy na hila ng mga kabayong apoy. Nagkahiwalay sila at si Elias ay iniakyat sa langit sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo.

2 Mga Hari 2:12

Kitang-kita ito ni Eliseo, kaya't napasigaw siya: “Ama ko! Ama ko! Magiting na tagapagtanggol ng Israel!” At nawala na sa paningin niya si Elias.

2 Mga Hari 2:13

Dinampot niya ang nalaglag na balabal ni Elias at bumalik sa pampang ng Ilog Jordan.

2 Mga Hari 2:14

Hinawakan niya sa isang dulo ang balabal at inihampas sa tubig sabay sabi, “Nasaan si Yahweh, ang Diyos ni Elias?” Nahawi ang tubig at siya'y tumawid.

2 Mga Hari 2:15

Nang makita ito ng mga propetang taga-Jerico na nakatanaw sa di-kalayuan, sinabi nila, “Sumasakanya ang kapangyarihan ni Elias.” Siya'y sinalubong nila at buong paggalang na niyukuran.

2 Mga Hari 2:9

Pagkatawid nila, sinabi ni Elias, “Sabihin mo sa akin kung ano ang ibig mong gawin ko para sa iyo bago ako kunin.”

> Sumagot si Eliseo, “Kung maaari'y ipamana ninyo sa akin ang dalawang bahagi ng inyong kapangyarihan.”

*Ano ang mayroon kay Eliseo?

(DESIRE)

gusto ni Eliseo na ipapamana sa kanya ni Elias ang dalawang bahagi ng kanyang kapangyarihan

2 Mga Hari 2:9

Pagkatawid nila, sinabi ni Elias, “Sabihin mo sa akin kung ano ang ibig mong gawin ko para sa iyo bago ako kunin.”Sumagot si Eliseo, “Kung maaari'y ipamana ninyo sa akin ang dalawang bahagi ng inyong kapangyarihan.”

Psalm 37:4 NIV

Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

(DECISION)

pinili ni Eliseo na sumunod kay Elias.

2 Mga Hari 2:6

Sinabi muli ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Maiwan ka na rito sapagkat pinapapunta ako ni Yahweh sa Jordan.

> ”Ngunit sinabi niya, “Saksi si Yahweh, ang Diyos na buháy, hanggang buháy ka, hindi ako hihiwalay sa iyo.” At nagpatuloy sila ng paglakad.

"Different but One"

(Ibaiba ngunit iisa)

1 Mga Taga-Corinto 12:4-12

4]Iba't iba ang mga espiritwal na kaloob, ngunit iisa lamang ang Espiritung nagkakaloob ng mga ito.

(Paglilingkod)

[5]Iba't iba ang paraan ng paglilingkod, ngunit iisa lamang ang Panginoong pinaglilingkuran.

(Gawain)

[6]Iba't iba ang mga gawaing iniatas, ngunit iisa lamang ang Diyos na kumikilos sa mga taong gumagawa ng mga iyon.

(Ikabubuti ng Lahat)

[7]Para sa ikabubuti ng lahat, ang bawat isa'y binigyan ng kaloob na nagpapakitang nasa kanya ang Espiritu.

(Pinagkalooban)

[8]Ang ilan sa atin napagkalooban ng kakayahang magsalita ng mensahe ng karunungan. Ang iba naman ay pinagkalooban ng katalinuhan. Subalit iisang Espiritu ang nagkakaloob nito.

(Espiritu )

[9]Ang Espiritu ring iyon ang nagkakaloob sa iba ng pananampalataya sa Diyos, at sa iba'y ang kapangyarihang magpagaling sa mga maysakit.

[10]

- May pinagkalooban ng kapangyarihang gumawa ng mga himala;

- may pinagkalooban din ng kakayahang magpahayag ng mensaheng mula sa Diyos, at

- may pinagkalooban naman ng kakayahang malaman kung aling kaloob ang mula sa Espiritu at kung alin ang hindi.

- May pinagkalooban ng kakayahang magsalita sa iba't ibang mga wika, at sa

- iba naman ay ang magpaliwanag ng mga wikang iyon.

(Isang Espiritu)

11]Ngunit isang Espiritu lamang ang gumagawa ng lahat ng ito at namamahagi ng iba't ibang kaloob sa bawat isa, ayon sa kanyang ipinasya.

(Si Christo’y isa lamang katawan)

[12]Si Cristo'y tulad ng isang katawan na may maraming bahagi. Kahit na binubuo ng iba't ibang bahagi, ito ay nananatiling iisang katawan.

THE PROMISED OUTCOME OF TRIALS!

James 1:2-4 NIV

2] Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,

3] because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.

4] Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Santiago 1:1

Mula kay Santiago, alipin ng Diyos at ng Panginoong Jesu-Cristo:Ipinapaabot ko ang aking pagbati sa labindalawang liping hinirang ng Diyos na nasa iba't ibang bansa.

Santiago 1:2

Mga kapatid, magalak kayo kapag kayo'y dumaranas ng iba't ibang uri ng pagsubok.

Santiago 1:3

Dapat ninyong malaman na napatatatag ang ating pananampalataya sa pamamagitan ng mga pagsubok.

Santiago 1:4

At dapat kayong magpakatatag hanggang wakas upang kayo'y maging ganap at walang pagkukulang.

> James tells us that when trials come they always have a divine purpose.

He says in verse 3,

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

(The word knowing speaks of understanding.)

James is saying, I want you to understand that when trials come they are not without rhyme or reason.

God always has a purpose in the trials that come our way.

There is the promised outcome of our trials.

(What is the purpose of trials in our life?)

> James explains three things that trials produce in our life.

A. Trials Produce Spiritual Purity.

James speaks of the trying of your faith in verse 3.

The word trying speaks of the purging effect of trials.

The picture behind the word is that of precious metals being heated in order for the impurities to be removed.

Someone has said that God puts us on our back that we might look up. God has his ways of getting our attention and He has his ways to working on things in our life. Trials are often the way He accomplishes this work.

Francis Thompson says sorrow, loss and disappointment were "Hounds of Heaven" sent to bring the wanderer back to the haven of peace from which he strayed. Again, trials have a purifying affect.

We also see that,

B. Trials Produce Spiritual Stability.

James also tells us in verse 3 that our trials worketh patience. The word patience speaks of perseverance. James is telling us that one of the ways God makes strong Christians is through trials.

(Eph. 6:1 - 9 Message)

- Family

- Slave

- Master

(Ephesians 6:10 says,)

Finally, my brethren,

be strong in the Lord,

and in the power of his might.

(How are we made strong?)

As someone has said,

> Trials are the divine gymnasium whereby we develop our spiritual muscles.

C. Trials Produce Spiritual Maturity.

In verse 4 James says,

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James used the word perfect twice in the verse. It is a word that means, complete, full grown.

> James is talking about spiritual maturity. He does not want the believer to be lacking, but complete and living a full Christian life.

Airplanes take off by overcoming the resistance of gravity and wind. Yet once they become airborne, that wind lifts them higher. Trials have a way of lifting us higher and higher.

(Trials are part of Gods way of helping us mature spiritually. )

THE POTTER HOUSE

Jer. 18:1-6

Jer 18:1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD:

Jer 18:2 "Go down to the potter's house, and there I will give you my message."

Jer 18:3 So I went down to the potter's house, and I saw him working at the wheel.

Jer 18:4 But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.

Jer 18:5 Then the word of the LORD came to me:

Jer 18:6 "O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?" declares the LORD. "Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.

(THE MESSAGE TRANSLATION)

Jer 18:1 The LORD said to me,

Jer 18:2 "Go down to the potter's house, where I will give you my message."

Jer 18:3 So I went there and saw the potter working at his wheel.

Jer 18:4 Whenever a piece of pottery turned out imperfect, he would take the clay and make it into something else.

Jer 18:5 Then the LORD said to me,

Jer 18:6 "Don't I have the right to do with you people of Israel what the potter did with the clay? You are in my hands just like clay in the potter's hands.

Intro:

God uses many images to describe His relationship to His people.

- He speaks of the shepherd and sheep relationship,

- the husband and wife relationship,

- a Father and His children, just to name a few.

> All of these are blessed and teach us many needed and valuable lessons about life, ourselves and our Lord.

> However, while we like sheep are protected and provided for by the shepherd, and as a wife, we are loved without condition by the husband and like children we are constantly under the Father's loving watch care.

The Mission OF The Potter

The Ministry OF The Potter

The Message OF The Potter

V1-3 THE MISSION OF THE POTTER

A. His Intent - > The Potter has a singular purpose.

> He desires to produce vessels that will be found useful, and that will bring honor unto Himself.

The pieces he manufactures are pieces that will be used by Himself and others.

This is God's intention as well.

> He excels in taking old worthless clay and transforming it by His grace into vessels of honor and glory.

He takes those things that are the "offscouring of all things",

1 Cor. 4:13,

and turns them into vessels of honor. Jesus saves the sinner by His grace and then He begins the process of changing that vile sinner into a vessel that will produce a profit for the Kingdom of God, one that will be useful to Him in His work, and one that brings honor and glory to His Name.

B. His Ingredients –

> In order to accomplish this lofty goal, the Potter must work with materials that leave much to be desired.

The condition of the clay as it is found.

> In other words, the clay, as it is taken from the ground, is worthless.

> It must be transformed into a useable state and this is a process that takes time and energy on the part of the Potter.

This is a perfect portrait of sinners.

We are worthless to God in our natural condition.

However, He is able to see the vessels the we can become.

> Therefore, He begins the process that will bring us to a place of usefulness.

C. His Instruments –

The potter uses several implements to bring the clay to a place where it is usable.

1. A Shovel

- This is the tool he uses to dig the clay from the earth.

2. A Mallet

- After the clay has been cleansed and processed, it is lain on a table and beaten with a wooden mallet.

The Potter does this to remove any air bubbles that might be trapped in the clay. If he doesn't the air bubble will form a pocket that will produce a weak spot and cause the vessel to be fragile and unusable.

3. The Wheels

- (Describe the wheels - A large bottom stone, usually made of stone, is mounted upon a shaft that sits in a stone socket.

> The Potter, using his feet, spins the large, lower wheel. As he does, the upper wheel is turne

Keep On Sowing

Psa. 126:5-6

> They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

> He that goeth forth and weepeth,

> bearing precious seed,

> shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,

> bringing his sheaves with him.

Mga Awit 126:5

- Silang tumatangis habang nagsisipagtanim,

- hayaan mo na mag-ani na puspos ng kagalakan.

Mga Awit 126:6

- Silang mga nagsihayong dala'y binhi't nananangis,

- ay aawit na may galak, dala'y ani pagbalik!

John 11:35-36 NIV

35] Jesus wept.

36] Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”

> Isn’t it amazing how a little seed can be planted, and you think it is never going to come up, then one day you notice the ground cracking, and a little sprig is coming through.

> We used to throw our watermelon rinds over the fence for the stock to eat.

> If we will be faithful in sowing God will surely take care of the seed and see that it will come up.

Isa. 55:11

So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth:

it shall not return unto me void,

> but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
