Bible Exposition Live On Zoom 7th October 2021
After such amazing hymns and melodies from the choir and the orchestra here are some of the things I learnt from the teachings.
Hebrews 3:1
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
The title of high priest and apostle belong to Christ, just like the pastor.
John 10:11
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
1 Peter 2:23-25
Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Ephesians 4: 8
Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
What Christ gave to man are the functions and not title.
Ephesians 4:11
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
Mathew 23:8
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:28-30
And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
All of them in the church were baptized into one spirit, they were given different gifts to function in the church.
The presumption that all who are baptised in the spirit must speak in tongues is wrong.
Because even speaking in tongues is prohibited, if there is no one who will interpret our tongues.
1 Corinthians 14:27-28
If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
A brother ask what are signs of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and the signs of the end of the world.
The world will not just end or burn because after the coming of our Lord Jesus, he will reign on earth for one thousand years.
Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Revelation 5:9
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
Mathew 24:6-8
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Mathew 24:24
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
This are the signs in the portion above, famine, pestilence, false Christ etc. This are the signs of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
