Sin Must Be Repented and Forgiven

1 Corinthians 5:1-8 / When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his spirit saved on the day of the Lord. (4-5)

Hymn #258 There is a Fountain Filled with Blood (Unified Hymn 190)

The Corinthian Church was a place where constant quarrels and troubles didn’t cease to occur, Although there were many issues, it undoubtedly was an important church. Once you come down to your conclusion in the Gospel, the evangelism movement will arise, and many disciples will flock to you. If you don’t come to your conclusion in the Gospel, you’ll ultimately hold onto something else. You’ll claim that only your thoughts are right and continue to fall into disputes and trials. There are a few things you must keep in mind. Repentance, condemnation, and forgiveness must all be done before God. Then what exactly is “sin”? Original Sin is the sin of ultimately dying due to being separated from God, which can only be solved by God alone. Then mankind ends up falling into the sin of idolatry. Since they have fallen into the six states of the unbeliever, they are bound to commit actual sin. Amidst this, the married couple Priscilla and Aquila appeared before the Corinthian Church. They helped Paul and eventually carried out world evangelization and Rome evangelization. What kind of power did these people possess?

1. Those Who Possess the Power of the Gospel of Forgiveness Can Save Others
The married couple Priscilla and Aquila were those who held onto the flow of the power of the Word. Those who transcend problems and possess the power to forgive are those who can save others. Although Joseph became prime minister, he didn’t charge Potiphar or even his wife for their sins. Joseph even confessed before his brothers that sold him into slavery that it was God who sent him ahead of them. He also said that although they intended to harm him, God intended it for good.

2. Those Who Possess the Power of the Gospel of Forgiveness Can Change the Generation
After receiving a letter from Paul, Philemon accepted Onesimus because he received the Gospel. Onesimus later became an evangelist and went to the Colossian Church.

3. Those Who Possess the Power of the Gospel of Forgiveness Can Save the Age
Moses prayed and forgave the Israelites, who continuously led riots while in the wilderness for 40 years. Elisha prepared a meal for the Aramean army, and Paul even prayed for the salvation of the Israelites who tried to kill him.

God can carry out world evangelization with even a single person who possesses the Gospel. It’s because it can only be done through the power of God. The forgiveness that is spoken of in the Bible is helping and guiding everyone to return to God. Thus, you must make the resolution of making a church that saves every single person.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, the entire world has fallen into division and constant fights. May I enjoy the Gospel that saves. As I become a church that possesses this Gospel, may I save others, the church, the field, and posterity with this Gospel. Mayall churches that carry out the Gospel movement in Korea become churches that save others. May the multiethnic in the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes change into disciples who save others. In Jesus Christ’s name. I pray. Amen.
