Bible Passage (KJV): 2 Peter 2:1-2

1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

Blessed Are They

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

====

Bible Passage (KJV): Matthew 4:23-25

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner

of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were

possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

Bible Passage (KJV): Matthew 5:1-12

1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Chapter XIV Of Saving Faith

1. THE grace of faith, whereby the elect are enabled to believe to the saving of their souls;1 is the work of the Spirit of Christ in their hearts,2 and is ordinarily wrought by the ministry of the word;3 by which also, and by the administration of the sacraments, and prayer, it is increased and strengthened.4

1. Heb. 10:39

2. II Cor. 4:13; Eph. 1:17-19; Eph. 2:8

3. Rom. 10:14,17

4. I Pet. 2:2; Acts 20:32; Rom. 4:11; Luke 17:5; Rom. 1:16-17

2. By this faith, a Christian believeth to be true whatsoever is revealed in the word, for the authority of God himself speaking therein;5 and acteth differently upon that which each particular passage thereof containeth; yielding obedience to the commands,6 trembling at the threatenings,7 and embracing the promises of God for this life and that which is to come.8 But the principal acts of saving faith are, accepting, receiving and resting upon Christ alone for justification, sanctification, and eternal life, by virtue of the covenant of grace.9

5. John 4:42; I Thess. 2:13; I John 5:10; Acts 24:14

6. Rom. 16:26

7. Isa. 66:2

8. Heb. 11:13; I Tim. 4:8

9. John 1:12; Acts 16:31; Gal. 2:20; Acts 15:11

3. This faith is different in degrees, weak or strong;10 may be often and many ways assailed and weakened, but get the victory;11 growing up in many to the attainment of a full assurance through Christ,12 who is both the author and finisher of our faith.13

10. Heb. 5:13-14; Rom. 4:19-20; Matt. 6:30; Matt. 8:10

11. Luke 22:31-32; Eph. 6:16; I John 5:4-5

12. Heb. 6:11-12; Heb. 10:22; Col. 2:2

13. Heb. 12:2

Jesus And Joy In Persecution (John 16:1-22)

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

QUESTIONS

Q1. How do you feel when you hear that you will face persecutions? What did Christ told us to do?

Q2. From the word "offended" in 16:1, what danger do we face when persecution occurs? What is the warning for us today?

Q3. Does v13 mean that the OT people were not guided by the Holy Spirit regarding God's Truth? Defend your answer.

Q4. What did our Lord say regarding what the Holy Spirit would do from vv7-11? Why did He say these things to the disciples (hint 16:6)?

Q5. What were each of the "a little while" in v16 that the disciples could not understand? How did vv20 and 22 come true as the Lord promised them? How should this also affect us today, turning our "sorrow into joy"?

Q6. The Lord Jesus mentions praying in His Name 3 times (vv23, 24, 26). What does it mean?

Q7. From vv23 and 24, what kind of answered prayers brings us most joy? Why? What if God did not answer "whatsoever ye shall ask", how would you feel? Why?

Q8. What must we do, having believed who Christ is and our how firm our salvation is?

Q9. What is our encouragement when we feel alone? How does this encourage us in times of trials and testing?

Q10. Summarize what and state why Christ said these things to the disciples.

Q11. What are Christ's promise in v33? How do we have peace and be of good cheer despite tribulation?

Bible Passage (KJV): John 16:1-22

1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.

5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

17 Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?

18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
