Matthew 25:31-34
225:31. "When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
25:32. "All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
25:33. "And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
25:34. "Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:On Jesus' second coming, He appears as King of kings and Chief Shepherd to divide sheep from the goats. We must be shepherded earnestly so we are not separate but we experience unity and year of revival.
Sheep are on the right and goats are on the left of God.
Basicsof separation are:
- Heavenly wisdom
- Character/behavior
- Acts
Sheep and Goats separation based on actsMatthew 25:4625:46. "And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."Sheep on the right are doing right actions, so they enter into eternal Kingdom of Heaven. But, goats on the left are doing cursed actions, so they go away into everlasting punishment.
Matthew 25:4125:41. "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:
Practices of cursed actions are:
- Robbing tithes and offerings which belong to God.
Malachi 3:8-9
3:8. "Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, 'In what way have we robbed You?' In tithes and offerings.
3:9. You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation
- Being deceitful/unfaithful in ministry to God.
Jeremiah 48:10
48:10. Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD deceitfully, And cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
- Keeping back his sword from blood, it means refusing purification by true teaching Word= holding hidden sins until top of sins, those are sins concerning eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage.
Person who doesn't want to become gentle, tends to blame others. The right attitude is 'spills blood', it means we confess our sins and if we are forgiven, do not sin anymore.
- Being disobedient to the true teaching Word because of hearingother voices.
Jeremiah 11:3-4
11:3. "and say to them, 'Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "Cursed is the man who does not obey the words of this covenant
11:4. "which I commanded your fathers in the day I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, 'Obey My voice, and do according to all that I command you; so shall you be My people, and I will be your God,'
Do not like tragedy at garden of Eden.
Eve and Adam were not obedient to God's voice because they heard other voice, so their lives changed from Firdaus situation to cursed one.
If there is a cursed action, we will experience cursed situation.
Genesis 3:17-193:17. Then to Adam He said, "Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it': "Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.
3:18. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, And you shall eat the herb of the field.
3:19. In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return."Cursed situation are:
- Thorns situation, that is laborious, suffering, tears and pain.
- Condition of ground return to the ground, it means his life does not change/keeps on being flesh human. Blood and flesh can not inherit Heaven= begone = perish.
I Corinthians 15:50
15:50. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
God does't want if human He has created lives in curse until s/he perishes. For that, God is willing to be cursed by His death on the cross:
- Bearing all sins and curse of sins.
Galatians 3:13-14
3:13. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"),
3:14. that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Our right attitude is confess our sins to God and others. If we are forgiven, do not sin anymore.
- That blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, so we are being blessed by God until our descendants and we become blessing for others.
Other blessing of Abraham is Holy Spirit that is poured to us, gentiles. If there is fullness of Holy Spirit, curse condition has been finished. One of signs of fullness of Holy Spirit is tongues like what Holy Spirit teaches.
Isaiah 11:1-3
11:1. There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
11:2. The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.
11:3. His delight is in the fear of the LORD, And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of His ears;
Peak of fullness of Holy Spirit is fear of the Lord, meaning fear of doing sins and fear of agreeing sin whatever the risks.
The usefulness of Holy Spirit:
- Holy Spirit will encourage us to live in the righteousness/do right actions according to Word= bearing weight of Word.
John 16:12-13
16:12. "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.
16:13. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
- Holy Spirit changes us from flesh human to spiritual human same as God= spiritual miracle. Starting from being obedient.
If spiritual miracle happens, physical miracle will SURELY happen. Until one day, we are changed to become as glorious as God.
God blesses us.
