Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Overall, Luke 6 refers to righteousness, the Court of Tabernacle.
In the beginning, God creates perfect man as glorious as Him, according to His image. God puts him in Eden.
But human falls into sin, so he is naked and loses God's images, namely glory, holiness, and righteousness.
Consequently, they are cast out to the world, to live in curse and suffering.
In the world, human does not repent but sins more up to the peak of sin, namely sin of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage.
It if continues, they will perish forever in the hell.
God is not willing if human suffers and enters the hell.
That is why, God wants to bring up the sinners, so they return to His images, namely righteousness, holiness and glory.
They return to Paradise, A Thousand years Kingdom of Peace and enter New Jerusalem forever.
There are seven kinds of God’s upbringing as follows:
- Luke 6:1-5is about the body is brought up by God to enter in spiritual activity.
- Luke 6:12-16 is about the soul is brought up by God that we have spiritual positionin the Kingdom of Heaven.
- Luke 6:17-19 is about the spirit is brought up by God that our spiritual is not sickbut healthy until perfect.
- Luke 6:6-11is about the deed is brought up by God.
- Luke 6:20-26 is about the mind is brought up by God.
- Luke 6:27-45is about the heart is brought up by God.
- Luke 6:46-49is about life journey is brought up by God.
Ad. 6 [Luke 6:27-45]. the heart is brought up by GodThe destroyed human's heart must be brought up and guided by God. God brings up our heart that we
imitateHis gentle heart.
The practices are as follows:
- Luke 6:27-36] loving others up to enemy. It is the practice of the loving heart of God the Father.
- Luke 6:37-42] do not judge others. It refers to the merciful heart of Jesus.
We learn the second practice.
ad. 2. do not judge others.
Luke 6:396:39. And He spoke a parable to them: "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch?John 9:19:1. Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth.The condition of one who judges other is like one who is
blind from birth.
It means as follows:
- the son of God who does not experience new birth, so his life is blind.
Blind lifemeans falling and rising in sin up to the peak of sin, namely sin of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage.
The life of one who does not experience the new birth is wild or not shepherded.
Wild manmeans his life follows the lust of flesh.
In the shepherding, the wild lust of flesh is withheld by God that we are not wild but being tamed.
- The son of God who cannot see or worship Himbecause of bad conscience or never being reborn.
Remember that the sky is controlled by Satan.
Do not be controlled by Satan through the world satisfaction such as fashion or technology.
- Facing a lot of impossible things and problems.
Do not fight against or judge others, especially people that we should honor including our parent. If we judge others, we cannot do the thing that we should be able to do.
On the contrary, if we can honor others and parent, God makes us possible to do the thing that we should not be able to do.
- One who likes to judge isliving in darknessup to the outer darkness in the hell.
God is not willing that His son and servant perish forever.
God helps us as follows:
- God spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.
John 9:5-6
9:5. "As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
9:6. When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.
The saliva is a thing that comes out from God's mouth or the Word that is sharper than any two-edged sword, namely the Word revealed, through a verse that explains another verse, teaching Word or purification Word.
John 15:3
15:1. "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
When we hear the Word that is sharper than any two-edged sword, it is as if we are being spat.
The ground added with the saliva is clay, namely revolting clay of sin.
The hand refers to Holy Spirit.
The Word of God and Holy Spirit show the revolting clay of sin right on the target.
Before the preaching of the Word, we pray earnestly that we always become God's target or the target of the Word of God, so He helps and fixes us.
Judas never becomes the target of the Word. He always avoids the Word, so he is destroyed in uncleanness, wickedness, and problem up to perdition.
When the Word points to our life, no matter how great our failure is, we still have relationship with God to be brought up and fixed.
When the Word shows us our condition, we are fixed by God. When the Word points to us, we have to realize our sin, regret it and confess all our condition and failure to God and others.
This is the shortest way to get God's help.
- God gives a command.
John 9:7
9:7. And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.
Command is something that we have to do. The Word is often not appropriate to our mind. That is the obedience test even it is unreasonable.
We just obey God's command.
The example of disobedienceis Saul. He is commanded to wait for Samuel for seven days.
Saul does not obey the command to wait, but sacrifices offering by himself.
Right afterSaul does not obey the command, Samuel comes.
The youth often does not obey God whereas He actually has prepared everything, and we just need to wait for the last time.
If we obey the Word of God even it seems impossible to us, we receive the power of the Word that takes away impossibility.
The blind man experiences the power to take away impossibility, so he can see. It starts from seeing himself and realizing his weakness(the blind person does not know his weakness, so he often feels great and proud of himself). So, he is not arrogant and just says "who am I?"
Further, the blind man who has got his eyesight is able to see others and their weaknessthat he can give and visit, not judge them.
Further, the blind man who has got his eyesight is able to see God, so he knows Him clearly through the revelation of the Word.
People who have the eyesight will be sent to enter the building of the body of Christ.
- God allows us to experience the sprinkling of blood.
John 9:35-38
9:35. Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
9:36. He answered and said, "Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?"
9:37. And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you."
9:38. Then he said, "Lord, I believe!" And he worshiped Him.
God allows us to suffer with Him and because of true teaching Word. We can meet Jesus who has been left alone on the cross when we are cast out or rejected until we feel alone because of the true teaching Word. So, we have very close personal relationship with God, we can worship or see Him and speak to Him.
The results are as follows:
- God gives the light of peace.
Numbers 6:26
6:26. The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace." '
We do not feel anything that flesh feels, no more fear, bitterness and worry, but just feel serenity from God, so everything becomes easy and light.
- God gives the light of mercy.
Numbers 6:25
6:25. The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you;
God gives His mercy and grace to help us just in time.
God takes away all impossibility and everything will be successful. God lifts us up and gives beauty in His time.
- God gives the light of glory from His face.
The light of glory changes us from carnal men to spiritual ones like Jesus.
If we obey, there is beaming face. If we do not obey, we have scowl up to the outer darkness.
When Jesus comes a second time, we are changed to be as perfect as Him that we are worthy to become the bride of Heaven and see Him face to face forever.
God blesses us.
