When Jesus shows His power, we must realize that He is the Almighty God, and we must all repent before Him.

There are many churchgoers who have been attending church their entire lives but do not realize the Lord. They attend worship services as spectators.

There are those who have attended church all their lives but do not know the Lord, and they participate in worship services as bystanders.

These people are often tempted by Satan in church, and they do not have the faith that the Lord is pleased with.

The wicked and adulterous generation only wants to see miracles and signs, and Jesus does not come to churches where many people gather due to crowd psychology.

We must truly live always within the will of the Lord. At first, following the Lord's will may feel like a very narrow way, but as time goes by, it feels like a wide and peaceful path.

These changes come because we experience the Lord’s love, freedom, and abundance in many ways.

We must not listen to what people say, when we obey the Lord's words, the Lord will make everything prosperous.

When the servant of the Lord rebukes the members for their sins according to the word of the Lord, do not be discouraged, but repent and obey.

If a church cannot point out and rebuke sin, then that church is spiritually dead.

When the pastor strongly rebukes sin, the souls of the congregation turn from sin and live.

A well-fed and comfortable horse does not like to run fast. However, when the rider whips the horse, the horse runs fast.

If you whip a running horse, it will run faster, and if you rebuke the sins of an obedient person, he will obey more diligently.

When pastors rebuke those who are lazy and unwilling to repent, most of them rebel and fall into Satan's temptations.

A stubborn, God-doubting, and greedy believer cannot go to heaven; they have only the faith of a bystander.

Such believers will go to hell; those who are not loyal to God but to a human pastor cannot go to heaven.

Those who only care about pleasing others and disobey the will of the Lord cannot go to heaven.

When I am tired and sick, church members come to me with medicine, but that is not a fundamental solution. Only God can heal me completely.

When a pastor develops the habit of relying on his congregation, that pastor is doomed.

The purpose of hearing and reading the Word of God is not to change other people, but to change myself first.

Do not try to see the speck in your brother’s eye, but first find the log in your own eye and remove it (Matthew 7:3,4).

Rather than trying to lead others to the righteous path, we must first cast off our own wickedness and arrogance.

The Apostle Paul confessed, “I am afraid that after leading many to heaven, I will disobey and go to hell” (1 Corinthians 9:27).

When the servant of the Lord tries to do the right ministry, such pastors are slandered and persecuted by those who belong to Satan.

The Apostle Paul was beaten, starved, and suffered much persecution from his own countrymen.

When he went to Rome, his ship was wrecked. He was imprisoned many times and beaten many times.

He was once a famous lawyer throughout Israel and attended Gamaliel’s Theological Seminary, the most famous seminary of his time.

By the standards of the Old Testament law, he was blameless (Philippians 3:3).

However, because he did not know the will of God, he arrested, beat, and imprisoned believers in Jesus.

On his way to Damascus to arrest believers who had fled abroad, he met Jesus and was transformed into new life.

After meeting Jesus, he became a servant of God who preached the gospel to the Gentiles.

Do not try to be saved by keeping all the laws. That is impossible. We all realize our own sins through the law, repent, and receive salvation through the blood of Jesus (Romans 3:20).

Realize the way to God, follow the way to heaven. No one is saved by keeping all the laws.

Only God can keep the law. The reason the law was given is to make us realize our sins. In Romans 3:20, it is written that the law makes us realize our sins.

Galatians 3, the law is called a schoolmaster. The schoolmaster is likened to the law that leads sinners to God.

The law is used as a law that leads us to God, but problems arise because we try to be justified by keeping all of the law.

Since no one can keep all of the law, those who try to be justified through the law cannot be justified in the end.

Because they act as if they keep all of the law while failing to keep all of it, they become formalists and hypocrites.

There is no flesh that can be justified by the law.

Through obedience to the Word, our hearts are purified. When we repent of our sins, the blood of Jesus cleanses our lives.

And being baptized in water helps us repent of our sins. Water baptism itself does not cleanse us.

Just as we wash our dirty bodies with water, we must cleanse our hearts that are tainted by sin with the blood of Jesus.

When our hearts are purified, the Holy Spirit comes to our hearts. When we are baptized in water, our hearts must first truly repent and be baptized.

Be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and receive forgiveness of sins. Then, I will give you the Holy Spirit as a gift.

When we repent and receive forgiveness of sins, our hearts are purified and the Holy Spirit comes. If we do not repent of our sins and simply receive water baptism, we will not receive the Holy Spirit.

Even in foreign religions, speaking in tongues is possible. It does not mean that all those who speak in tongues believe in God.

When people disobey and do not repent, the tongues of the Holy Spirit gradually disappear, and instead, the tongues of Satan come out of their mouths.

Those who belong to the Holy Spirit strive to cut off sin and obey.

If a child of God does not obey and does not repent, he or she will gradually fall under the power of Satan.

Resolving the part where he or she did not obey the Lord is repenting and receiving forgiveness for sin.

The one who solves our sins is Jesus. Jesus shed His blood on the cross for our sins.

In the Old Testament, people offered sacrifices with the blood of animals and received forgiveness for their sins. However, people gradually began to offer formal sacrifices.

Without a heart of repentance, they simply handed a lamb to the priest, thinking that this would forgive their sins.

No one can receive forgiveness from the Lord through such formal sacrifices and worship.

But God took on flesh and died on the cross like a lamb for atonement (John 1:29). Like a priest, Jesus offered sacrifice for mankind with his body.

He rose from the dead and ascended to the throne of heaven, and he sends the Holy Spirit to those who believe in him and repent (John 20:22, 14:26).

The Holy Spirit comes to those who repent, and the Holy Spirit is the spirit that gives life.

The Holy Spirit is life, and the spirit that gives life to the dead (1 Corinthians 15:45).

When the Holy Spirit comes, all the descendants of Adam who sinned and died in the Garden of Eden come back to life.

Our lives are reborn, which means that those who died because of sin are reborn with new life.

However, believers who are reborn into new life live on the same level as non-believers whose spirits are dead. Such believers can never go to heaven.

No one can be saved through human doctrines and legalism, so we must quickly escape from them.

Many pastors do not know the role of the law and the gospel of repentance, so they claim that they have received salvation of the soul unconditionally without repenting of their sins.

These days, people who believe in Jesus for the first time go to church and recite the pastor's prayer once, and then they all believe that they are unconditionally saved.

True faith comes from experiencing Jesus. It is like someone who has tasted sea water and knows that it is salty.

Children do not know what hot is, but it is common for them to know what hot is after they burn their hand on a hot iron.

So experience is living knowledge. It is not true faith to say that someone who has never experienced the Lord has already been saved.

When we are freed from sickness, poverty, and various sufferings by the power of the Lord, we realize that God is alive.

Job experienced God in the midst of many hardships, and his faith was made complete.

Many pastors preach that if you just go to church, you will definitely go to heaven. That is why believers do not know how to go to heaven, and they hate suffering and training.

The world is full of false sermons, and because people believe these lies, there are few people in the church who go to heaven.

For salvation, who can go through the path of suffering to the end? In order to overcome the suffering of faith, we must deeply contemplate the suffering of the Lord on the cross.

In order to endure when you suffer, think deeply about Jesus who suffered on behalf of mankind.

Those who cannot endure the suffering of the world must learn the patience of Job.

Each person has a hardship to maintain faith. Those who overcome this hardship to the end will go to heaven.

However, many believers, unable to endure this suffering, give up their faith and go to hell.

Those who are deceived by human doctrines forget the word of God. Man-made doctrines are those that 100% deny the truth.

Many churches have covered up the Word of God with human doctrines, and thus human doctrines have been elevated above the Bible.

Those who believe in human doctrines judge heresy based on human doctrines. How can such pastors go to heaven?

We must be careful to reject lies to the end and be faithful to the word of truth.

Jesus is saying now that no one among the youth will go to heaven. There are very few who believe and obey the word of God.

As the end times approach, there are fewer people who obey the Lord's words, and there are few believers who repent of their sins.
