No matter how powerful or skilled a person may be, he cannot follow God. Joseph and Paul who knew this fact, only trusted in God’s method and proclaimed the Gospel before kings. God is with you;(WITH) He is with us;(Immanuel) and He is in everything for the good of all things(Oneness). If you hold onto these covenants and remain inside the blessing of “24 hours,” not only will you receive the onehundred-year answer, but you will receive the one-thousand-year answer inside the blessing of “25 hours” as well. You will also discover the absolute answer inside the blessing of “eternity.” What is God’s absolute method in order to give these blessings,
1. Absolute Sovereignty(The 10 Foundations of Faith)
God’s absolute sovereignty does not change. A person’s life and death are in God’s hands(1 Kings 29:10~14). The only method to save people is Jesus Christ(Ephesians 1:1~14). God gave you the absolute power of the Holy Spirit(Acts 1:8), and He gave this absolute promise through the Bible(2 Timothy 3:14~17). You are God’s temple, and even now He is with you through the Holy Spirit who dwells in you(1 Corinthians 3:16). Therefore, the place you are becomes a place of missions(Acts 18:1~4). God rules over everything;(Psalm 139:1~9) everyone’s life is finite;(Hebrews 9:27) and the afterlife certainly exists(Luke 6:19~31). However, God has undoubtedly prepared a reward for His children(Matthew 10:40~42).
2. Absolute Salvation
God gave you His grace as a present. A child of God receives salvation through this faith(Ephesians 2:8~10). The law of the Spirit of life has completely liberated you from the law of sin and death(Romans 8:1~2). That is why nothing can separate you from God’s absolute salvation and love in Christ Jesus(Romans 8:31~39).
3. Absolute Evangelization
Absolute evangelization will certainly be realized. The believers of the Early Church held onto this covenant and devoted themselves to prayer(Acts 1:1~14). At that time, God opened the doors for all businesspeople from fifteen nations(Acts 2:9~11). God raised Paul’s team and destroyed the forces of darkness that worked in shamanism and fortune telling(Acts 13:1~12 and 16:16~18). Furthermore, through the synagogues in every region, God opened the doors for regional evangelization(Acts 17:1~6, 18:1~4, and 19:8~20).
[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, let me hold onto the covenant and remain inside the time schedule of “24 hours, 25 hours, and eternity.” May I hold onto Your method and become the disciple who enjoys the answer of absolute evangelization.
