【Course】2nd Global Online Seminar - Revelation of Triumphant Church Lesson 4: How to Build a Triumphant Church

2020-03-13 15,950 Second Workshop - Revelation of the Victorious Church Holy Spirit Speaking in Tongues Blessing Power Revelation Destiny

Introduction

Good day to all. I am very pleased to meet everyone online again. In the past, we have discussed three sessions on The Revelation of the Overcoming Church. The first session was The Overcoming Church as the Foundation of Healing and Deliverance, the second was Establishing the Overcoming Church is Our Mingding Destiny, and the third was The Mark of the Overcoming Church. Today, we will share the fourth session, with the theme How to Build an Overcoming Church.

Let us briefly review. If you can receive the first session, this is the word of the 《Bible》. Because Jesus said:

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. (《Matthew》 16:18-19 )

The foundation of healing and deliverance is the Overcoming Church, building the church on the rock. This is very much in accordance with the 《Bible》. This is the only time Jesus Christ clearly spoke about the church. The second session, The Overcoming Church is Our Mingding Destiny.” Everyone must know the weight of the word Mingding in Chinese Mingding Destiny. We are born for this and die for this. This is a very important matter that is worth laying down our lives for. Building the Overcoming Church is very meaningful.

Let me share a story with you. For a period of time, I encountered some things that kept me busy. Finally, one day my mother was delivered. During the deliverance process, the evil spirit behind my mother spoke. In the past, the things she did could not be accomplished; this was all due to the Old Ma. It said it would destroy the church, surrounding our church with its soldiers. We then began 72 hours of continuous prayer, and many people were delivered through this prayer. Old Ma said, You are moving too fast. We defeated Old Ma, as well as some lower-level soldiers. Afterward, it also told us that many brothers and sisters were blessed, especially those in sales, who were inexplicably blessed.

The Overcoming Church brings about very meaningful things. Today, we must know that building the Overcoming Church will not be without tears? Will it require paying a price? Yes, it will. After paying the price, the rewards received are very abundant, and the overall feeling is very good.

Today, we suddenly discovered that we have advanced another level. Old Ma told us it was Ma Lao San. We thought it was the third in the Old Ma family, but it was not. Old Ma ranks third in the spiritual world. The eldest is Satan, and the second is the spirit of religion. This spirit of religion has harmed the church terribly. On the surface, we all know that Satan is behind it, but the ones who truly crucified Jesus Christ were the chief priests and Pharisees in the temple. The spirit behind them is a brood of vipers. The spirit of religion is very powerful. Many churches today are still under the control of religion, which is very difficult.

After realizing this today, we began to strike at the spirit of religion, which is backed by weasels. This thing is bigger than Old Ma. When we aimed at the eldest and started attacking, one sister interestingly called me in the morning, saying that she was beaten black and blue by Dragon Three in a few moves. Her eyes hurt, and her whole body ached. In the vision, it was like watching a movie. The dragon beat her with its large tail, and the dragon stirred in the sea. The crosses on the roofs of many small churches fell. This dragon was very angry because it had lost the battle, so it killed a horse. She smelled blood in the vision, which was very interesting. Then she saw them holding a meeting by the sea.

The spirit of religion must be trampled under our feet. This spirit of religion is very interesting. I believe many people will be delivered. In the end, this sister was delivered. She is currently doing translation work, and her efficiency has doubled. She used to have learning difficulties, but this is very valuable. Among us, those who lack understanding are all affected by this type of evil spirit. The Overcoming Church brings various kinds of deliverance, such as from epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and learning disabilities. The church is moving forward. Today, we will share How to Build an Overcoming Church. From 12:00 tonight to 12:00 on Saturday night, we will promote 24-hour non-stop prayer.

The Faith of Jesus Christ is a Faith of Revelation

The Christian faith is a faith of revelation; it is never a faith invented by man. I believe that people have a problem: they often think they know a lot in their position. However, their position is not high, they stand very low, and they do not see things very accurately. Therefore, everyone needs guidance from a master. With a master's guidance, they stand higher and see more clearly. If a master guides you, you can choose to believe it or not.

For example, when a college graduate starts working, an experienced older person advises him on what to do and what not to do, but he does not listen. A child likes to play computer games all day long, and in the end, he achieves nothing in his forties and feels very conflicted. Can he reflect on what he has been doing all these years? This is called not listening to the elders and suffering the consequences.

What is the Christian faith all about? People stand very low in their positions and can only see a few things. God reveals to us what He knows from heaven. I believe that the Christian faith is revealed to man by God. If you do not believe, how can you receive it? Therefore, the Christian faith lies in believing or not believing. Fortunately, God did not speak to you. If you listened and did not believe or listen, and then still stubbornly rebelled, that would be a very serious matter.

Some people want to hear God speak to them. Do you really know after listening? You do not know. The 《Bible》 clearly states it. Why is the last book of the 《Bible》 called 《Revelation》? When studying 《Revelation》, we are talking about the revelation of building the Overcoming Church. This revelation is written in the 《Bible》.

The Christian faith is a faith of revelation, clearly written in every book.

《Ephesians》 says:

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. (《Ephesians》 1:17-19 )

This passage speaks of several instances of knowing, but there are still many things that are unknown. Believing in Jesus, but believing in a way that turns the powerful gospel into something without power, unable to solve any problems. Some people think that their church is very loving and speaks very gently. I cannot understand what use this is. The gospel that I believe in is all read from the 《Bible》. We must say what the 《Bible》 says. Some people do not.

A sister came among us. Her sister believes in the Lord in another church. Her sister cannot listen to my preaching. Actually, I did not preach anything, just repeated the words of the 《Bible》. She said, I cannot listen to what you are saying. I like to listen to gentle things. The problem is not whether it sounds good or not, but whether it is effective or not. What is the use of sounding good if it is not effective?

Building the Church According to God's Revelation

Today, we are talking about God's revelation. Building the Overcoming Church relies on God's revelation, which is crucial. This is not difficult to understand. The church is God's temple. You must let God dwell in God's temple. If you build a temple and God does not come to dwell in it, it is like renovating a house. If the owner wants pink color, you had better make it pink.

We say, The temple is the place where God dwells. Later, I studied the 《Bible》 and found that revelation began in the days of Moses. Moses was to build a tabernacle, the dwelling place of God. As a result, Moses went up to the mountain, not eating, drinking, or sleeping for forty days and nights, doing one thing: receiving the revelation of the Holy Spirit on how to build God's tabernacle. Later, these things were written in the 《Bible》, but I did not understand them. How many pegs, how many ropes, purple thread, and sealskins were used in the tabernacle were written in super detail.

The God we believe in is a God of revelation! The tabernacle was built on earth according to the pattern in heaven. Fortunately, we are reading the 《Bible》 today. Moses built the tabernacle according to the instructions God gave him. Imagine if Moses had not built it according to God's requirements, the consequences would be disastrous. Fifty gold hooks, but only forty-nine were used. Missing one is okay(No, it is not okay to miss one - translator's note). Ropes, sealskins, where did so many sealskins come from? Dog skin and sealskin are only one word different? After it was built, God said, This is not what I want. Then God will not want to dwell there.

In fact, the tabernacle mentioned in the 《Bible》 was built by Moses according to the revelation he received from God on the mountain. Building the tabernacle at that time was the same as building the church today. We must build the church according to God's revelation. How to build the Overcoming Church? The church is God's temple, the body of Jesus Christ. We are very low and not at a very high level. God tells us what to do, and we do it accordingly.

One of my employees, who is a software developer, had to deal with several hundred megabytes of source code. Doing this requires being very rigorous. I told him to do it according to my standard SOP. However, he did not do what I said. He skipped many steps. To my surprise, he even asked why he had to do what I said. I was very puzzled and almost trembled with anger. He was a recent graduate of a polytechnic institute, very low(here, the translator would add low also in terms of knowledge, experience and worldview), and he did not believe or understand what I said.

Moses building the tabernacle was a very rigorous matter! It does not matter if we do not understand, but we must believe what God says. God is in heaven, and we are on earth. Whatever God says, we can only do it accordingly. If people want to be self-righteous and insist on doing things according to their own ideas, is this not the thinking of a mentally ill person?

Receiving God's Revelation Through the Holy Spirit

God's revelation is crucial! Today, many people build churches without building them according to God's words. When I speak according to God's words, some people say they cannot listen and that what I say is very harsh. One member was paralyzed in bed, but the pastor did not visit him, saying that their pastor was too busy. I said, I will pray for you, and you can get up and walk! I prayed for him for three hours, which was very exhausting. I also received God's revelation and discovered that he had many problems, so I led him to confess and repent. God was truly very gracious, and he was able to get up and walk!

As soon as I finished ministering to him, he said something that surprised me. He said, Our pastor does not speak like you. Our pastor speaks very nicely. What you say is very harsh! I was very puzzled. What kind of brain does this person have? It does not matter whether the speech is harsh or not. What matters is that you can get up and walk! We must also consider whether what we say comes from the 《Bible》.

Some time ago, a person said, We are not the same as Jesus. Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. We are not. However, he forgot what 《John》 says: That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

The scripture says:

Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ (《John》 3:6-7)

We who are truly born of the Spirit are not like Jesus? The flesh is unrighteous; it is the Spirit that gives life. I am emphasizing that we should imitate Jesus.

Later, in the days of David, David wanted to build a temple for God and saved hundreds of tons of gold and countless copper and iron. As a result, God gave David a revelation. God personally drew a picture with His finger and gave it to David. David passed the picture revealed by God on to his son Solomon. Solomon built the temple according to God's revelation.

Fortunately, Solomon built it according to God's revelation! Can we blindly renovate a house for God? It does not matter whether you like it or not; what matters is that God likes it. For example, when my colleague wants to renovate his house, I have to ask him what kind of countertop he wants and install it according to his wishes.

Moses and Solomon built God's temple. They both had this attitude: I am a person, and He is God. Therefore, I must listen to His revelation. Whether you understand it or not, we must build according to God's will. The same is true of speaking. We must receive the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so that we truly know how to build the Overcoming Church.

Some people have questions: How do you know whether the church you are building will be victorious or not? Because the evil spirits of Hades have been miserably dealt with by me! I am strictly building God's church according to what I can receive from God, whether it is going through fire or water.

People need to see through things in their understanding. A few days ago, I talked about spiritual people seeing through all things. If you see through things, you will not care so much. When building the temple, God revealed the Spirit of wisdom to me. After building it, I saw that the effect was very good. This gospel is the power of God, and we must not believe in this powerful gospel in a way that makes it without power.

Originally, it is hard enough for children to go to school and adults to go to work, yet we are carrying another cross on our back, that would be so hardship right? The cross is to nail our carnal habits to death, the cross cannot become our burden.

Jesus said:

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)

In the process of building the church, we must rely on the revelation of the Holy Spirit. Some people say, Why is this revelation revealed to you and not to me? The key is that you must have that heart. Those who seek will surely find, and those who knock will surely have the door opened to them. When I began to build God's church, I had a great confusion: Why is the church built like this?

Receiving The Holy Spirit is Crucial

Many churches are not very useful and cannot solve any problems. I said this is not right because the Holy Spirit clearly reveals in the 《Bible》 that this gospel is the power of God. I wondered why the church was so bad. It was not other people's churches. We did not know about other people's churches, but I knew that the things we were doing ourselves were not working. For example, if I built an airplane that could not fly, I would know that I could not build airplanes. I would not say that this is how airplanes are. If I built an airplane that could not fly, would I not know it?

I understood that I was not doing it right and that I had to do it right. I knelt down to pray, struggling a lot. Afterward, as I prayed, I discovered a mystery. In the early days, it was not quite the same as it is today. Today, it is, Oh, believe in the Lord with me, believe in the Lord with me. What can you do after believing? Nothing seems to happen. It seems like just one more thing, and you still have to go to church on Sundays, which is very tiring.

Some pastors told me, Look at our church's cell group leaders, they are replaced every three to five years. I asked him where the previous cell group leaders had gone. It turned out that the previous cell group leaders had burned out. Why did this pastor tell me this? This pastor suffered from hydrocephalus. When I ministered to him, he said that being a pastor is very hard. Cell group leaders are replaced every three to five years, and they have to take their place, which is very hard because he can only rest for one day.

I said, You are much better off than me. I have not rested for a single day since I was in my twenties. How did you get hydrocephalus? He believes that the cell group leader has to take a cell group every week, lead Bible studies, and serve. They come to church on Sundays and still have to go to work on weekdays. If they do not rest for three to five years, they will be finished. This is his logic. Does it sound a little strange?

I could not listen to this and retorted at the time, An ordinary brother or sister in our church spends more time believing in the Lord in one week than your cell group leaders, and they are not burned out! He asked what was going on, and I told him that it was because we were building the Overcoming Church according to God's revelation.

A few days ago, I called a sister. I had met her once half a year ago. Later, I had not seen her for a long time, so I said I wanted to find out about her situation. She told me that her colleagues were envious of her, that there was just a hand helping her for no reason. God is wonderful, adding good customers to her. People cannot control this, but God can. If you do not build the Overcoming Church according to God's revelation, will she not burn out? Adding the burden of work to a cross, raising three children and then adding a cross, is that not particularly difficult?

Today, we must know that the word of God is very effective. If it is not very effective, it is because it is not done correctly. For example, if the entire car has to be pushed by people behind it, is that a car? That is a rickshaw! Why is this the case? I read the 《Bible》, and I have read the 《Book of Acts》 many times. In those days, I yearned for one thing to happen: as soon as I prayed, five thousand people would believe! Wow, when the Holy Spirit came, I preached for 3 minutes, and 3,000 people believed. I used to like this very much.

I have read many books, flipping through them left and right, and some seminary professors have written a book on church growth, all quoting the 《Book of Acts》. After reading it, I found that we were not doing it that way ourselves.

Let me tell you how people did it. Why are we not doing it right today?

Blessing is a good thing, right? It is very good to have blessings and the presence of God, but you must know where to start. Today, when we believe in the Lord, do you want to believe in Jesus? I want to believe in Jesus, so come and follow me in a repentance. This is called a decision prayer, accepting Jesus Christ as Savior. Then, after believing in the Lord, you must be baptized. Find a pool or a bathtub to be baptized in. After being baptized, it is over.

However, I did not read the 《Book of Acts》 that way. If you do not believe it, you can read 《Acts》 chapters 8 and 19. I said this is very important. Peter followed Jesus. Peter and John could not do it wrong, right? The Apostle Paul wrote so many books: 《Galatians》, 《1 Corinthians》, 《2 Corinthians》, 《Ephesians》. John wrote 《Revelation》. They could not do it wrong. They would not do it wrong.

I read it again carefully and found that Peter went to see a place where people had believed and been baptized. When he arrived, he asked, Have you received the Holy Spirit? If not, come and pray to receive the Holy Spirit. This was not recorded just once, but many times. They all asked this.

According to this passage of the 《Bible》, I think they asked this wherever they went. Today, many people believe in the Lord, but they have lost the rest. For example, when we work, we do it halfway, we do a semi-finished product. Can a car run without wheels? Or can a car run without an engine? There is a car model, but it is useless, it is a model.

I saw that there was still the matter of receiving the Holy Spirit, but I had never done it. Later, I developed the habit of receiving the Holy Spirit for those who came to believe. Later, it was also recorded that some people received the Holy Spirit before being baptized. How important is the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit is crucial. Because it is not by might, nor by power, but by the Spirit that things are accomplished. It is not by your repentance, but by the Spirit that things are accomplished.

I thought this was very important. In 《Acts》 8 and 19, Paul came after Peter. God chose Paul to be an apostle. Paul was amazing, he had knowledge and personality. And Paul did the same, often asking, Have you believed in the Lord? Have you been baptized? Have you received the Holy Spirit?

Receiving the Holy Spirit is a key step. For example, when sharpening a sword, the final step is quenching. After the sword is quenched, it is extremely sharp and cuts iron like mud. This quenching is very important. The Christian faith is a faith of revelation. By the Holy Spirit and through faith, God works in us. So without the Holy Spirit, it is a very difficult thing.

The Intimate Connection Between God's Power and the Filling of the Holy Spirit

Later, I studied what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit, which is to be filled with the Holy Spirit and pray in tongues. The misconceptions brought about by praying in tongues are enormous. Many people do not pray in tongues, but they criticize it more vehemently than anyone else. You must have confidence in me; I am one who strictly implements the 《Bible》. Subsequently, miracles and wonders sprang up among us like mushrooms after a rain.

Many people seem to be reciting poetry when they ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit. But I am in a state of rugged yearning; that is what the 《Bible》 teaches. We must ask urgently and directly. Christians should not be gentle and pretentious, well-dressed; that is what I fear most. What God loves is a faith that is like wind and fire, full of emotion. If you are not thirsty, God's Spirit will not fill you. You must thirst; there is no way it will not happen. That is the state you must be in.

When I studied being filled with the Holy Spirit, it was difficult. Some people's mouths were practically sealed; it was hard for them to open them. So, I thought of a trick: just open your mouth and say anything. Later, when it was too difficult to open their mouths, I would have them learn a few phrases from me, and that worked too. I have found that what the 《Bible》 tells us to implement, we should implement well. What the 《Bible》 does not tell us to do, we must not do. What the 《Bible》 does not say, we should do by faith.

I am a control system engineer. The input of a control system is not as important as the result achieved. So, I have developed a habit: if the result is good, there is no need to care about the process, and this is not forbidden by the 《Bible》. So, everyone among us prays in tongues, regardless of what they say, but it works. Sometimes children also follow us in praying in tongues, which is very good.

So, I wrote a section on the misconceptions of praying in tongues, which you can listen to. This is called the spirit of revelation. What is born of the Spirit is spirit, and what is born of the flesh is flesh. The Holy Spirit within us intercedes for us with groans that cannot be uttered; this is praying in the Spirit.

The 《Bible》 says:

So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding. (《1 Corinthians》 14:15)

The 《Bible》 never says that praying with understanding can replace praying in tongues; both are indispensable. Reading the 《Bible》 cannot replace being filled with the Holy Spirit, nor can being filled with the Holy Spirit replace reading the 《Bible》. Praying in tongues cannot replace knowing God with understanding, nor can praying with understanding replace praying in tongues. This is easy to understand.

For example, can an airplane's engine replace the airplane's wings? No, an airplane must have both an engine, wings, and a navigation system, among many other components. Without an engine, the plane cannot fly; without wings, the plane cannot fly either; you cannot fly by riding on the engine.

Today, we must begin to understand that the spirit of revelation is a very important component. The devil loves to get rid of this part the most. In fact, people are often deceived by the devil. Peter was often revealed to by the Spirit of God, as was Paul. John was revealed to by the Spirit of God and wrote 《Revelation》, but later people no longer had the revelation of God.

Why did the devil get rid of God's revelation? Because the revelation of God concerns power, and the key to the church's victory lies in obtaining power. Without power, there is no way to overcome. Without the Holy Spirit, where is the power? A meeting without the Holy Spirit is just a club that cannot solve any problems.

We must return to the original meaning of the 《Bible》. When we begin to restore the truth of being filled with the Holy Spirit, God's power is constantly manifested among us, and then many diseases are healed. Even a sister among us had a good friend, also a Christian, who had bone cancer and was in excruciating pain. This sister called me, and I prayed with the sister who had bone cancer. Then the pain disappeared, and she could walk again. I often pray for people and am very happy to pray for those with diseases because they are all healed after praying. I praise my God; my God is so good!

Restoring Our Powerful Gospel

To build a victorious church, we must first restore the work of the Holy Spirit in the church and restore the revelation of the Holy Spirit in the church. This gospel is the power of God. In 《Ephesians》, 《1 Corinthians》, 《2 Corinthians》, 《Galatians》, and 《Romans》, especially in the letters written by Paul, it is all about the powerful gospel. Today, we will restore the pure gospel.

Restoring the pure gospel is crucial. The pure gospel comes from reading Paul's letters. The pure gospel is the restoration of the gospel of God's power. Recently, there has been a network term called mouth cannon, which means that someone can only talk and cannot do anything. Isn't our gospel just a mouth cannon if it has no power? It's just talk without power. Would you want to believe in a mouth cannon gospel?

Once, I was listening to a pastor online expounding on 《Hebrews》, and he kept talking about his own things and didn't make it clear what he was talking about. When we read the 《Bible》 and expound on it, we should read out God's will.

The scripture says:

On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. (《Acts》 1:4)

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” (《Acts》 1:8)

Jesus wants us to be witnesses for God, witnesses of the power of the Holy Spirit. Paul was on a ship, the ship was wrecked, and then he came down from the ship to an island. Coincidentally, the island's chief's father had a high fever. Paul went over and touched him, and the high fever was gone. How great it is to be like Paul, having testimonies wherever you go. This is the pure gospel and the powerful gospel. A mouth cannon gospel is useless. It's all about speculation, talking a lot of道理, but not solving any problems.

This gospel is the power of God. Today, the devil cannot do corrupting work among us anymore. We corrupt the devil's works every day because we have received the revelation of the Holy Spirit and the power of the Holy Spirit. Today, God's power is manifested among us, and miracles happen frequently among us. Miracles have a very high status in the 《Bible》. Someone said that if you remove miracles from the 《Bible》, the 《Bible》 would be left with just a cover and a back cover. Today, listen to my advice and come out of the mouth cannon gospel.

Therefore, being filled with the Holy Spirit and receiving the Holy Spirit is crucial, but being filled with the Holy Spirit can never replace reading the 《Bible》. You still need to read the 《Bible》 well. Reading the 《Bible》 cannot replace being filled with the Holy Spirit either. The 《Bible》 is the word of God, written for us to read. Reading the 《Bible》 and being filled with the Holy Spirit are both crucial.

A demon-possessed person said that he saw Jesus, and then Jesus said to him, Peace be with you. This is utter nonsense. The Jesus you saw was clearly a demon in disguise. People should not pursue seeing things. This is not from God's revelation. God's revelation revolves around how to build a victorious church.

Today, when you read 《Matthew》, 《John》, 《1 Corinthians》, 《2 Corinthians》, 《Galatians》, 《Ephesians》, 《1 Timothy》, 《2 Timothy》, and 《Hebrews》, especially Paul's letters, they are all about building God's glorious church.

So, we begin to know for sure that being filled with the Holy Spirit and power are extremely related. The work of the Holy Spirit is closely related to putting to death the evil habits of our flesh and the sinful nature within us. Being filled with the Holy Spirit and obtaining power are the most basic things for building a victorious church, namely: first, receiving the Holy Spirit and obtaining power; second, reading the 《Bible》 well and strictly implementing what the 《Bible》 says.

We are all reading the same 《Bible》, but different people read completely different things. Some people read with the flesh, and this cannot be read. Only the Holy Spirit can guide you into the truth.

We Must Restore a Seeking Heart

Therefore, when reading the 《Bible》, you need God's Spirit to reveal to you. Our God is extremely honorable. If you are not serious, you will not get anything. I knelt down and prayed for two weeks over 《Genesis》 chapter 1. In fact, I don't understand many things in the 《Bible》. I don't know what it's talking about. If I don't understand, then I don't understand, and that's it. Then God's Spirit will certainly not come.

However, after reading it, I pondered deeply. If you listen to my 《Hebrews》 exposition, every episode is painful agony, all熬出来的. God is truly the true God. He allowed me to understand 《Hebrews》. The exposition book I wrote on 《Hebrews》 is called 《Striving to Perfection》, which is my most satisfying book.

The revelation of the Holy Spirit is closely related to our constant seeking. Knock, and the door will be opened to you; seek, and you will find. Therefore, today our brothers and sisters must restore the seeking heart within. Don't think that writing a notebook is nothing great; it must be kept in your mind. So, I created a recording-to-text function. You will learn a lot by listening and converting it to text. If everyone can be proactive, listen carefully, review it again, and personally install it in your head, you will definitely gain a lot.

Some people say, Then why doesn't the Holy Spirit speak to me? Today, I must tell you, why should the Holy Spirit reveal things to you? People ask, God, which job should I choose? God really doesn't care much which job you choose. What kind of people does the Holy Spirit reveal things to? The Holy Spirit absolutely reveals things to those who build His glorious church, because that is God's will. Whether it is a gift, faith, or need, it all revolves around one thing: what can lead us into eternity is building God's glorious church, and then through the glorious church, we become a temple that manifests God's glory.

When seeking God's revelation, never listen to the voice of God. Some people hear nothing, but instead hear the voice of evil spirits. Today, there are many such things. Before, when I was a group leader in the local church, one of the sisters in my group was very poor, with an extremely low salary. As a result, the pastor promoted an activity to go to Taiwan to hear God's voice, and she borrowed money to go.

After returning, she heard nothing. The sister came to me crying and said, They all heard something, but I heard nothing. I borrowed money and spent it.

The New Testament and the Old Testament are united in Jesus Christ, and all things are united in Jesus Christ. Through the church, God's wisdom and glory are to be manifested. Whether it is a gift, hearing God's voice, or being moved, these are all for building God's glorious church.

For example, in your service, you want to edify sisters or edify brothers, and God will surely give us revelation. I often have a definite impression from the Spirit of God during service. When I say it, the other person is really moved.

A sister came among us who had lived a very hard life. After the meeting, I said, Let me pray for you. During the prayer, the Spirit of God told me that this sister had suffered a lot of injuries. I said, Sister, have you suffered a lot of injuries? She cried terribly, and finally someone knew her heartache. I prayed with her, and today she has become a leader in the church, and her service is very棒.

There Is No Blessing Outside of Mingding Destiny

God's gifts are manifested through building the church, and God's revelation is also manifested through the glorious church. God never reveals messy things. The most fundamental reason why we face those problems is that people do not have Mingding Destiny. Those things become big things; without Mingding Destiny, family becomes a big thing; without Mingding Destiny, children's schooling becomes a big thing. In fact, these things are very small things.

If God wants to help you, these are all very small things. Why does God want to help us? Because we are people who build God's glorious church. Not because God is very utilitarian, but because that is the kind of people God wants.

When we begin to have a deeper understanding of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will lead us into the spiritual world. When we see things with God's eyes, you will find that many things are seen through. Why is it so uncomfortable today? Because you can't see through it! Today, if we become people who build God's victorious church, many problems will be easily solved.

Today, churches rarely talk about the spiritual realm. Why? Because when you talk about the spiritual realm, it seems unscientific. In fact, the spiritual realm is very real. Now, quantum mechanics is studied to an extreme point, which reaches the spiritual realm. Many things are closely related to people's thoughts and consciousness. That is not superstition; it is real. We must understand the spiritual realm through the Holy Spirit. Many times when I pray, I see strange images, such as snakes.

This is quite similar to the 《Classic of Mountains and Seas》 that I have read. I took a copy to read, and as I was reading, the Holy Spirit told me not to read it. It was revealing the spiritual realm of demons, and I should enter the spiritual realm of God, a higher level of the spiritual realm. I said, So that's how it is. I think God is very wonderful. God is willing to give everything to His people. God's ultimate plan is the new heaven and new earth and the new holy city.

The holy city, Jerusalem, descending from heaven is the new heaven and new earth. The new Jerusalem is part of us, living stones, a complete unity with God, enjoying God's presence. What will we do after we enter the new Jerusalem? I really don't know, but through the 《Bible》, I know that we will manage God's creation, as revealed in 《Genesis》. Now we must begin to know what kind of result we are trying to achieve. That result is the holy city Jerusalem, not the earthly Jerusalem, but the heavenly Jerusalem, with God's presence.

That is the final and wonderful period of God's plan, which I must thirst for and is the goal I strive for. Building God's church will later become the holy city Jerusalem, which is also called the bride of Jesus Christ to Jesus Christ. The relationship between Adam and Eve, created by God at the beginning, was very奇葩, but the union of Jesus Christ and the church is beyond our imagination. It is the bridegroom and the bride, which is what God has revealed to us from 《Genesis》 to 《Revelation》.

May God bless you all!

大家好,非常高兴再次与大家在网上见面,过去我们讲了三讲《得胜教会的启示》,第一讲是《得胜的教会是医治释放的根基》,第二讲是《建立得胜的教会是我们的命定》,第三讲是《得胜教会的印记》。今天我们来分享第四讲,主题是《如何建造得胜的教会》。 我们稍微回顾下,如果你能够领受第一讲,这是《圣经》的话。因为耶稣说: 我还告诉你,你是彼得,我要把我的教会建造在这磐石上;阴间的权柄(权柄:原文是门)不能胜过他。 我要把天国的钥匙给你,凡你在地上所捆绑的,在天上也要捆绑;凡你在地上所释放的,在天上也要释放。” (《马太福音》 16:18-19 ) 医治释放的根基是得胜的教会,把教会建造在磐石上,这是非常合乎《圣经》的,这是耶稣基督清清楚楚唯一一次讲的教会。第二讲《得胜的教会是我们的命定》,大家一定要知道华人命定神学的命定二字的分量是很重要的,我们要为此而生,为此而死的,这样一件非常重要的事情,值得我们把命摆上,建造得胜的教会是非常有意思的。

我给大家分享一个故事,有一段时间我遇到了一些事情来回折腾,最后有一天我妈妈就释放了,释放的过程中,我妈妈背后的邪灵说话了,过去她办的事情都办不成,这都是老马。牠说要把教会干掉,带着牠的兵把我们教会团团围住,我们就开始72小时连续不断地祷告,这一祷告很多人得释放。老马说:“你们动作太快了。”我们就把老马打败了,还有一些小兵级别的。过后也跟我们讲,很多弟兄姐妹蒙祝福,尤其是做销售的,莫名其妙就蒙福。 得胜教会带来的是很有意思的,今天要知道建立得胜的教会不会有眼泪?要不要付代价?要的。付完代价以后,得着的回报是非常丰厚的,整个的感觉是很好的。 今天我们突然发现,我们又上了一级,老马跟我们讲是马老三,我们以为是老马家族里的老三,其实不是,老马在属灵世界里头排老三,老大是撒旦,老二是宗教的灵。这宗教的灵把教会害惨了,表面上我们都知道撒旦在背后,其实真正把耶稣基督钉十字架的是那些在圣殿里的大祭司还有法利赛人,背后的灵是毒蛇的种类。宗教的灵是很厉害的,今天很多教会还在宗教的辖制下,很困难的。

今天突然意识到以后,开始打击宗教的灵,背后是黄皮子,这东西比老马大。当我们对准老大开始打的时候,一个姐妹很有意思,上午给我打了电话,被龙三两下的功夫打得脸都青肿。眼睛疼、浑身疼。在异象中,就好像看电影,那个龙就用大尾巴揍她,那个龙在海里头搅动,很多小教会房顶的十字架都倒了。这个龙非常愤怒,因为打败战了,结果把一头马给杀了。她在异象中闻到血腥味,这很有意思,然后又看到他们在海边开会。 宗教的灵要被我们践踏在脚底下,这宗教的灵很有意思。我相信很多人会得着释放。最后我们这个姐妹得着释放了,她正在做翻译的工作,效率倍增,以前有学习困难,这很有价值。我们当中有悟性不通达的,都是这类的邪灵。得胜的教会带来的就是各种各样的释放,比如癫痫、脑瘫、学习障碍。教会正在向前推进,今天分享《如何建造得胜的教会》,从今天夜里12点到拜六的夜里十二点,我们会推动24小时不间断的祷告。

基督教的信仰是一个启示的信仰,从来不是一个人发明的信仰。我认为,人有一个毛病,常常在自己的位分以为自己知道很多东西。但是他位分不高,站得很低,对事物看得不那么的准,**所以,人人都需要高人的指点。**高人一指点,站得更高,看得更清楚。如果高人指点你了,你可以选择相信,也可以选择不信。 比如,一个大学刚毕业的人出来做工,一个有经验的老者指点他应该这么做那么做,但是他不听。一个小孩子整天喜欢打电脑游戏,最后到了四十多岁一事无成,很纠结,那能不能反思这些年都干嘛了?这就叫做不听老人言,吃亏在眼前。 基督教的信仰是怎么一回事?人站在人的位分上是很低的,能看到的东西不多。上帝就从天上把祂知道的启示给我们。基督教的信仰是神启示给人的,我相信。如果你不信,怎么能得着呢?所以基督教的信仰在于信与不信,幸亏上帝没有跟你说话,听完了你不信又不听,然后还硬着颈项悖逆,那是很要命的事。 有的人就想听上帝和他说话,听完了你真的知道吗?你不知道,《圣经》明明写得清清楚楚,为什么《圣经》最后的一本书叫做《启示录》?在查《启示录》的时候,都在讲建立得胜教会的启示,这启示都写在《圣经》里。 基督教的信仰是一个启示的信仰,在各本书里都写得清清楚楚。

《以弗所书》这么说: 求我们主耶稣基督的神,荣耀的父,将那赐人智慧和启示的灵赏给你们,使你们真知道他, 并且照明你们心中的眼睛,使你们知道他的恩召有何等指望,他在圣徒中得的基业有何等丰盛的荣耀;并知道他向我们这信的人所显的能力是何等浩大。(《以弗所书》1:17-19 ) 这段经文一连串讲了好几个知道,很多不知道。信耶稣,信着信着,把大有能力的福音信成没有能力,什么问题也解决不了。有的人认为自己教会多友爱,说话多温柔。我就不能理解,这有啥用呢?我所信的福音,都是从《圣经》里读出来的,我们必须知道《圣经》怎么说我们就怎么说,有的人不是。 我们当中来了一位姐妹,她姐姐在另位一间教会信主,她姐姐听不了我讲道,其实我也没讲什么,只是把《圣经》的话讲了一遍而已。她说:“你讲的我听不了,我喜欢听温柔的。”问题不在于好听不好听,问题在于好使不好使,不好使再好听有啥用?

**我们今天讲神的启示,建造得胜的教会靠神的启示,这是至关重要的。**这事不难理解,教会是神殿,神的殿你得让神来住。你建造一个殿神也不来住,跟装修房子很像,业主要粉色的,你最好整成粉色的。 我们说:“圣殿是神居住的地方。”后来我查考《圣经》,摩西的年代启示就开始了。摩西要建造一个帐幕,帐幕是神居住的所在。结果摩西上到山上,四十昼夜不吃不喝不睡觉,干一件事,得着圣灵的启示,怎么建造神的帐幕。后来把这些东西写在《圣经》里,我也没读懂,帐幕用多少个橛子,多少个绳子,紫色线、海狗皮,写的超级的详细。 我们所信的这位神是启示的神!帐幕是照着天上的样子在地上建造的。幸亏今天我们读的《圣经》,摩西是按着神指示的样子建造帐幕,假想如果摩西没有按着神的要求建造,那后果就不堪设想了。五十个金钩子,用了四十九个,缺一个没事。绳子,海狗皮,哪来这么多海狗皮?狗皮和海狗皮不就差一个字吗?等造完了,神说:“这不是我要的。”那神就不爱住。 其实,《圣经》里讲的帐幕,是摩西按照从山上得着的神的启示建造的。那个时候建造帐幕和今天建造教会是一样的。**我们建造教会就必须按照神的启示来建造。**如何建造得胜的教会,教会是神的殿,是耶稣基督的身体,咱们很低,层次不那么高,神告诉我们怎么做,我们就照着做。

我的一个员工,他是搞软件开发的,要处理的源代码好几百兆,做这个事是要非常严谨的。我告诉他,让他按照我的标准SOP来做。但是,他没有按照我说的来,他略过很多步骤。让我诧异的是,他还问为什么要按照我说的做。我就很纳闷,差点气的发抖,他是理工学院刚毕业的,非常low,我讲的他也不信,也听不懂。 摩西建造帐幕是很严谨的事!我们不明白不要紧,但我们得相信神说的,神在天上我们在地上,神所说的,我们只有照着做的份。人要自以为是,非得照着自己的想法整,这不是精神病的思维吗?

**神的启示是至关重要!**今天很多人建造教会不按照神的话来建造。我按照神的话讲,有人说,听不了,说我讲得可难听了。有一个会友瘫痪在床上,牧师也没有去看他,他说他们牧师可忙了。我说,“我带你祷告,你可以起来行走!”我就带他祷告了三个小时,特别折腾,我也得着神的启示,发现他有很多问题,带他认罪悔改。神真的非常有恩典,他就可以起来行走了! 我一服侍完,他就说了让我很诧异的话。他说,“我们牧师讲话不像你,我们牧师讲话可好听了,你讲话真难听!”我就很纳闷儿,这人长的什么脑子啊?讲话难听不难听不重要啊,重要的是你能起来行走啊!我们也要思考,我们说的话到底是不是从《圣经》来的。 前段时间,一个人说,“我们就跟耶稣不一样,人家耶稣是受圣灵感孕从童真女玛丽亚所生的,我们不是。”可是,他忘了《约翰福音》讲的:从肉身生的是肉身,从灵生的才是灵。 经文说: 从肉身生的,就是肉身。从灵生的,就是灵。我说,你们必须重生,你不要以为希奇。(《约翰福音》3:6-7) 我们这些真的是从灵生的,我们不就和耶稣很像了吗?肉身是无义的,让人活着的乃是灵。**我强调的是我们要效法耶稣。**

之后,到了大卫年间,大卫很想为神建造一所圣殿,他就攒了好几百吨黄金,铜铁不计其数,结果神就给了大卫一个启示。神亲自用手指画了一个图给大卫,大卫把神启示的图传给了儿子所罗门。所罗门就按照神的启示建造圣殿。 幸亏所罗门按照神的启示来建造啊!我们给神装修房子能瞎整吗?你喜欢不喜欢不重要,重要的是神喜欢。比如我的同事要装修房子,我就得问他要装什么样的台面,我就得照着人家的意思来装。 摩西和所罗门建造神的圣殿,他们都有这样的态度:我是个人,祂是神,所以,我得听祂的启示。不管你听不听的懂,咱们都得照着神的意思来建造。说话也是如此,我们都得得着智慧的灵和启示,使我们真的知道如何建造得胜的教会。 有的人就有疑问,“你怎么知道建造的教会得胜不得胜?”因为阴间的邪灵被我修理得很惨了!我是严格地按照我所能够从神领受的来建造神的教会,不管是上刀山下火海。 人需要在悟性上把事情看透。前几天我讲属灵的人看透万事。把事情看透了就不那么在乎了。建造圣殿,神把智慧的灵启示给我,建造以后,就看见这果效非常得好。**这福音本是神的大能,我们千万不要把这大有能力的福音信得没有能力。**

本来小孩上学,大人上班下班很辛苦了,再背一个十字架,那不是更辛苦了吗?十字架是钉死我们属肉体的恶习,十字架不能够成为我们的重担。 耶稣说: 凡劳苦担重担的人可以到我这里来,我就使你们得安息。 我心里柔和谦卑,你们当负我的轭,学我的样式;这样,你们心里就必得享安息。 因为我的轭是容易的,我的担子是轻省的。” (马太福音 11:28-30) 我们在建造教会的过程当中,要靠着圣灵的启示。有的人就说,“这启示怎么就启示给你,没有启示给我呢?”关键是你得有那份心啊,寻找的一定寻见,叩门的一定给他开门。当我开始建造神教会的时候,我有一个极大的困惑就是教会怎么整成这样?

很多教会没有什么太大用,什么问题也解决不了。我说这不对,因为圣灵清楚的启示,在《圣经》里是这福音本是神的大能。我就纳闷,为什么教会这么烂,不是别人教会啊,别人教会咱不知道,咱自己整的东西不行,那我是知道的。比如我造了一个飞机不会飞,我就知道我不会造飞机。我不会说,飞机就是这样,我造了一架飞机不会飞,我能不知道吗? 我就明白了我没整对,那得整对了。我就跪下来祷告,折腾的够呛。随后,祷告祷告,我发现了一个奥秘,就是人家在早期的时候,跟咱们今天不太一样。今天是,哎呀,跟我信主吧,跟我信主吧,信了能怎么样,也不怎么样,好像就多了一个事儿,礼拜天还得去教会,累的够呛。 有一些牧师就跟我说,“你看我们教会的小组长,每三年到五年换一茬。”我问他以前的小组长哪去了呢?原来以前的小组长烧焦了啊,这烧焦了的英文叫:burn out。为什么这个牧师跟我这么说?这个牧师得了脑积水,得了脑积水我就服侍他,他说,做牧师的很辛苦的,每三年五年换一茬小组长,小组长一换他们就得去顶班,很辛苦,因为他只能休息一天。 我说,“你比我好多了,我从20多岁,我一天都还没休息过,你怎么就变成脑积水了?”他就认为,这个小组长每个礼拜要带小组,带查经,要服侍,礼拜天来教会,平时还要上班,这三年五年不休息,就会完蛋,这是他的逻辑。听起来就有点怪,是不是? 我是听不了这话,当时就怼回去,我说:“我们教会一个普通的弟兄姐妹,一个礼拜拿出来信主的时间都比你们小组长多,也没烧焦!”他问咋回事,我告诉他因为我们照着神的启示建造得胜的教会。

前两天,我给一个姐妹打电话,半年前我见过她一次,后来,好久没见,我就说要了解一下她的情况,她就跟我讲,他们的同事都羡慕她,就是莫名其妙就有一只手在帮助她。神很奇妙,把好的顾客加添给她。这事人管不了,但是神能管。如果你不按照神的启示建造得胜的教会,她能不烧焦吗?工作的重担再加个十字架,养三个孩子再加一个十字架,那不是特别辛苦嘛? 今天,我们要知道,神的道是大有功效的。如果不太好使就是因为没整对。比如整个车要让人在后面推,那是汽车?那叫黄包车!为什么会是这样?我就读《圣经》,《使徒行传》我是读了很多遍,当年的我就渴望有一件事儿发生,一带祷告,一下子,五千人信主!哇,圣灵一降临,讲了3分钟的道,3000人信主。我以前喜欢这个,可喜欢了。 我读了很多书,左翻右翻,还有一些神学院的教授,写了一本书,什么教会成长,都是引用《使徒行传》。我读完以后,我发现我们自己就不是这么整的。 我就跟大家讲讲人家是怎么整的?咱们今天怎么就没整对?

祝福这事儿挺好,是不是?有祝福,有神的同在那是非常好的,但是必须知道从哪开始。今天咱们信主,你要不要信耶稣?我要信耶稣,来跟着我一起做个悔改,这叫决志祷告,接受耶稣基督做救主。然后信主以后得受洗,找一个水池或者找个浴缸受洗,受洗了以后,完事了。 可是,我读《使徒行传》不是这么整的。你要不信的话,大家可以去读《使徒行传》第8章,读第19章。我说这事儿很重要,彼得是跟过耶稣的,彼得和约翰能整错了吗?使徒保罗写了那么多,《加拉太书》、《哥林多前书》、《哥林多后书》、《以弗所书》,约翰写了《启示录》,人家能整错吗?人家不会整错。 我再认真读,结果就发现彼得听到什么地方有人信主受洗,就过去看,过去看问的是你们受了圣灵没有?没有,来祷告受圣灵。这样的记载还不是一次,是很多次,他们都这么问。 按照这段《圣经》,我想他们走到哪都是这么问。今天很多人信主,就把后面的整没了。就比如我们干活,干到一半,干了半成品。车子还没装轱辘能跑吗?或者车没发动机能跑吗?是有车型,但是没用的,那是模型。

我一看还有受圣灵的事,我咋没整过,后来我养成习惯,来了信主,受圣灵。后来还记载,有的人没受洗就先受圣灵。圣灵多重要啊,圣灵至关重要。因为不是靠车,不是靠马,是靠着圣灵方能成事。不是靠着你的悔改,是靠着圣灵方能成事。 我想这事很重要,到了《使徒行传》8章和19章,彼得之后来了保罗,神拣选保罗做使徒。保罗厉害啊,他是知识分子还有性格。而且保罗也这样干,经常问:“你信主了没有?你受洗了没有?你受圣灵了没有?” 受圣灵是关键工序啊,比如磨一把剑,最后工序就是淬火啊,剑经过淬火锋利无比,削铁如泥啊。这淬火很重要啊。**基督教的信仰是启示的信仰,靠着圣灵,凭着信心神在我们身上做工。**所以没有圣灵是一件很麻烦的事。

后来,我研究受圣灵到底是啥,受圣灵就是圣灵充满方言祷告。方言祷告带来的迷思是极大的迷思。很多人不方言祷告,但是评论起方言祷告比谁都厉害。大家必须对我有信心,我是一个非常严格的按照《圣经》去落实的人。随后,神迹奇事在我们当中就像雨后春笋一样。 有很多人要求圣灵充满的时候都好像诗朗诵,**而我是粗狂渴望的状态,《圣经》就是这么教的。**我们必须情词迫切的直求,基督徒不能温文尔雅道貌岸然,衣冠楚楚,最怕就是这样的。神喜欢的是如风如火的信法,充满了情感的人。你不渴慕,神的灵不会充满,你要渴慕,没有不行啊,就是要这样的状态。 我研究圣灵充满的时候,但是很难啊,有的人嘴巴简直是金口,很难开口啊。我就想了一个招,你就开口,随便说。后来太难开口,我就让他跟我学几句,也好使啊。**我发现《圣经》里让我们落实的,我们好好去落实。《圣经》里没有让我们做的,一定不要去做。《圣经》没说的,就凭着信心去做。** 我是一个控制系统工程师,控制系统的输入不要紧,达成的结果才关键。所以我养成了习惯,结果好,就不用在乎过程,这也不是《圣经》禁止的。所以在我们当中所有人都方言祷告,别管怎么说的,但是好使啊。有时候小孩也跟着我们方言祷告,很好的。 所以,我就写了一段方言祷告的迷思,大家可以去听。这叫做启示的灵,我们从灵生的就是灵,从肉身的生的就是肉身。圣灵要在我们里头替我们用说不出来的叹息替我们祷告,这就是灵祷告。

《圣经》说: 这却怎么样呢?我要用灵祷告,也要用悟性祷告;我要用灵歌唱,也要用悟性歌唱。(《哥林多前书》14:15) 《圣经》里从来都没有说悟性祷告可以取代方言祷告,这两样必不可少。读《圣经》不能取代圣灵充满,圣灵充满也取代不了读《圣经》;方言祷告不能代替悟性上认识神,悟性祷告也不能取代方言祷告,这很容易理解。 比如一架飞机的发动机能代替飞机的翅膀吗?不能,一架飞机必须同时有发动机、翅膀以及导航仪等等很多的组件。没有发动机,飞机飞不了;没有翅膀,飞机也飞不了,骑在发动机上是飞不起来的。 今天,我们要开始了解启示的灵是一个很重要的关键组成部分。魔鬼最喜欢把这一部分给整没了,其实,人常常被魔鬼欺骗。彼得常常被神的灵启示,保罗也是,约翰被神的灵启示写下了《启示录》,但是后来的人却没有了神的启示。 为什么魔鬼把神的启示给整没了呢?**因为神的启示关乎能力,教会得胜的关键在于得着能力,没有能力,就没办法得胜。**没有圣灵,哪里的能力呢?没有圣灵的聚会,就是一个俱乐部,什么问题也解决不了。 我们必须回到《圣经》的本意,当我们开始恢复圣灵充满的真理,神的大能不断地彰显在我们当中,然后很多疾病就得了医治。甚至我们当中一个姐妹的好朋友,虽然也是一个基督徒,得了骨癌疼得要死,我们这个姐妹就打给我,我就带着这个骨癌的姐妹祷告,然后疼痛消失,还能下地走路。我经常为人祷告,也非常乐意给有疾病的祷告,因为一祷告全好,我就赞美我的神,我的神真好!

**建立得胜的教会,首先就要恢复圣灵在教会里的工作,恢复圣灵在教会里的启示。**这福音本是神的大能,在《以弗所书》、《哥林多前书》、《哥林多后书》、《加拉太书》、《罗马书》,尤其是保罗所写的书信,全都在讲大有能力的福音,今天我们就来恢复纯正的福音。 恢复纯正的福音至关重要,纯正的福音从读保罗的书信来,纯正的福音就是恢复神大能的福音。最近有一个网络名词叫“嘴炮”,就是什么事也做不了只会用嘴巴说,就叫打“嘴炮”。其实,我们的福音如果没有能力,不就是“嘴炮”吗?只是嘴巴上说说,没有能力。你要不要信一个“嘴炮”的福音? 有一次我在网上了听一个牧师查经《希伯来书》,一直在讲他自己的东西,没听明白在讲什么。我们读《圣经》,查经,就把神的心意读出来。 经文这样说: 耶稣和他们聚集的时候,嘱咐他们说,不要离开耶路撒冷,要等候父所应许的,就是你们听见我说过的。(《使徒行传》1:4) 但圣灵降临在你们身上,你们就必得着能力。并要在耶路撒冷,犹太全地,和撒玛利亚,直到地极,作我的见证。(《使徒行传》1:8) 耶稣让我们为神做见证,做圣灵大能的见证。保罗坐船,船坏了,然后从船上下来到了岛上,刚好岛主的爸爸发高烧,保罗过去一摸,高烧就好了。做保罗这样的多好,走到哪里哪里就有见证,这就是纯正的福音,也是大能的福音。“嘴炮”的福音没什么用,整天思辨,讲了一大堆的道理,解决不了什么问题。

这福音本是神的大能,今天魔鬼不能在我们当中再做败坏的工作,我们天天败坏魔鬼的作为,因为我们得着了圣灵的启示,也得着了圣灵的大能。今天神的能力彰显在我们当中,神迹就频频发生在我们当中。神迹在《圣经》当中的地位是非常高的,有人说,如果把神迹从《圣经》里删掉,《圣经》就剩下一个封面和封底。今天听我一句劝,从“嘴炮”的福音里出来。 所以,圣灵的充满,受圣灵至关重要,但是圣灵充满永远不能代替读《圣经》,你仍然要好好读《圣经》;读《圣经》也不能代替圣灵充满。《圣经》就是神的话,写出来是让我们读的。读《圣经》和圣灵充满两者至关重要。 一个被鬼附的人说他见到耶稣了,然后耶稣跟他说愿你平安,这纯粹是瞎扯,你看到的耶稣明明是鬼装的。人别去追求看见什么,这不是来自于神的启示,**神的启示是围绕着如何建立得胜的教会。** 今天你读《马太福音》、《约翰福音》、《哥林多前书》、《哥林多后书》、《加拉太书》、《以弗所书》、《提摩太前书》、《提摩太后书》以及《希伯来书》等等,尤其是保罗的书信,全都是写建造神荣耀的教会。 所以,我们开始确切的知道,**圣灵充满和能力有极大的关系,圣灵的工作跟治死我们肉体的恶习,治死我们里面的罪性紧密相关。**圣灵充满和得着能力是建立得胜的教会最起码的一件事,也就是第一,领受圣灵,得着能力;第二,好好读《圣经》,严谨地按照《圣经》所说的落实。 我们都在读同一本《圣经》,不同的人完全读出不同的东西。有的人用肉体来读,这个读不了。只有圣灵才能引导你进入真理。

所以,读《圣经》的时候需要神的灵启示你。我们的神是极其尊贵的,如果你不是用一个认真的心,都得不着。《创世记》第一章我跪下祷告两个礼拜,其实《圣经》好多东西我都读不懂,我不知道在讲什么,读不懂反正读不懂算了吧,那么神的灵肯定不会临到。 但是,我读了后苦思冥想,你如果听我的《希伯来书》查经,每一篇都是痛苦的煎熬,都是熬出来的。神真的是真神。让我读明白《希伯来书》,我写的《希伯来书》的查经书叫做《竭力进到完全》,那是我最满意的一本书。 圣灵启示跟我们不断的寻求有紧密的关系。扣门的给你开门,寻找的必寻见。**所以,今天咱们弟兄姐妹要恢复里面寻求的心。**别以为写一个笔记没什么了不起,放在脑子里才行。那么我开创了一个录音转文字,听完就转文字就会学到很多。如果大家都能够积极主动,听完仔细再理一遍,把它亲自装在你的脑袋里,你一定会得着很多的。 有的人说,那为什么圣灵不和我说话呢?今天我必须告诉你,圣灵为什么要启示你?你的人问:“神啊,我要选哪份工作?”神真的不大在乎你选哪份工作。圣灵启示什么样的人呢?**圣灵绝对启示建造祂荣耀教会的人,因为那是神的心意。**不管是恩赐,信心还是需求,都围绕一件事,能够带我们进到永恒里去的就是建立神荣耀的教会,然后透过荣耀的教会成为彰显神荣耀的圣殿。

寻求神的启示,千万别去听神的声音。有的人什么都没听到,反而听到邪灵的声音。今天这样的事情很多,之前我在当地教会做小组长,我带领的小组有一个姐妹很穷,薪水是属于极低的那一类。结果牧师推动一个活动就是去到台湾听神的声音,她借钱去了一趟。 回来以后什么都没听到,那个姐妹哭哭啼啼的来到我面前说,“他们什么都有听到,可是我什么也没听到,钱也借了,也花了。” 新约《圣经》和旧约《圣经》都是在耶稣基督里合二为一,万物都是在耶稣基督里合一。透过教会要彰显神的智慧和荣耀。如果是恩赐也好,听神的声音也好,感动也好这些都是为了建造神荣耀的教会。 比如说你在服侍当中,你为了造就姐妹或者造就弟兄,神一定会给我们启示。我经常在服侍当中,神的灵会给我一个确切的感动,当我说出来的时候,对方就真的被感动到。 一个姐妹来到我们当中,这辈子活的非常辛苦,聚会结束后我说我来带你祷告吧。祷告中,神的灵告诉我,这个姐妹受过很多的伤,我就说,姐妹你是不是受过很多的伤。她整个人哭到稀里哗啦,终于有人知道她的心痛。我就带着她祷告,直到今天成为教会的领袖,服侍是非常的棒。

神的恩赐是透过建造教会彰显出来的,神的启示也是透过荣耀的教会彰显出来。神从来不会启示乌七八糟的事情,**我们之所以面临那些问题,最根本的就是人没有命定。**那些事就了大事,没有命定家庭就成为大事,没有命定孩子的上学就成为大事,其实这些事都是很小的事。 如果神要帮助你,这些都是很小的事,神为什么要帮助我们?**因为我们是建造神荣耀教会的人。不是因为神很功利,因为神要的就是这样的人。** 当我们开始对圣灵有更深的认识,圣灵就会带我们进到属灵的世界里,当我们用神的眼光看问题,你会发现很多事情都看透了。为什么今天很难受,因为看不透啊!今天,如果我们成为建造神得胜教会的人,很多问题就迎刃而解。

今天教会很少讲灵界,为什么,因为一讲灵界就好像这事不太科学的。其实灵界很真实的,现在量子力学研究到极端的地步,这就到了灵界了。很多东西跟人的思想意识紧密相关,那不是迷信,是真实的东西。我们要对灵界要透过圣灵来认识,我很多次祷告的时候,都看到稀奇古怪的东西形象,类似有蛇这类的。 这跟我读过的《山海经》挺像的。我就拿着一本去读,读着圣灵告诉我不要去读,那是启示魔鬼的灵界,让我应该进入神的灵界,更高灵界的层次。我就说原来是这样,我觉得神非常奇妙,神愿意把所有的东西,赐给祂的百姓,神最终的计划就是新天新地和新的圣城。 圣城耶路撒冷从天降临就是新天新地,新耶路撒冷我们都是一部分,是活石,是跟神完整的合一,享受神的同在当中。我们进入新耶路撒冷以后干啥,我真的不知道,但是透过《圣经》知道管理神的创造,在《创世记》启示的。现在就要开始知道我们所做的要达到什么样的一个结果,那个结果就是圣城耶路撒冷,不是地上的耶路撒冷,是天上的耶路撒冷,有神的同在。 那是神最终奇妙计划的句点,我是要渴慕的,是我竭力追求的目标。建立神的教会,后来会成为圣城耶路撒冷,对耶稣基督来讲又叫耶稣基督的新妇。神起初创造的亚当夏娃夫妻关系是很奇葩的,但是耶稣基督与教会的合一是超乎我们想象的,是新郎和新妇,是《创世记》到《启示录》神启示我们的。 愿神祝福大家!
