You must always seek out God's "absolute plan." Accordingly, before having assurance, you need to confirm three points. First, it's the core point. The point is to utilize the strengths and talents that you have to the extent that they're in line with the Gospel. If you don't find them, you'll end up doing many other works and won't be able to see the hidden answers given by God. As a result, works won't take place, and you won't know the reason why. That's why you should always ask questions regarding “the absolute plan." Second, it's the basis regarding assurance. There is biblical, scientific, and factual basis for Christ who solved the three curses. Even now, according to the stream of the entire Bible, Genesis 3·6·11 continue. For that reason, you must confess Christ every day. Third, evidences exist inside the covenant. The Pentateuch contains the root causes and solutions to man's problems. The core of the Bible is Christ who is the true Priest, true Prophet, and true King. Through Christ, you can enjoy the Triune God; "The Throne's Power"; and the power to save "The 3 Ages." From this point on, "The 5 Assurances" will emerge.

1. The Assurance of Salvation and the Assurance of Guidance
By confirming these three points, you'll be thankful just for being saved, (John 1:12, 5:24, 1 Peter 2:24~25, John 10:27~30, & 1 John 5:11~12) In addition, God also takes care of churches, the servants of the Lord, and believers. If you enjoy the blessings of walking with God, He'll guide you along the way. (Proverbs 3:5)

2. The Assurance of Answers and the Assurance of Forgiveness
Your prayers are recorded on the throne. (Revelation 8:3~5 & Jeremiah 33:1~3) That's why prayer and waiting are everything. If you realize any sin and turn away from it, God will erase it. (Psalm 66:18, 1 John 1:9, & Mark 10:45) Having been forgiven, you must forgive and help others regarding their mistakes.

3. The Assurance of Victory
The death of those who have the Gospel is the beginning, and tribulations are the spreading of the Gospel. Ultimately, persecution is world evangelization. (1 Corinthians 10:13)

Bartizans need to be built. You can do that by always thinking about "The 3 Todays." In doing so, resolve for the sake of "The 5 Basics"; the acceptance movement; “The 20 Strategies" for finding disciples; the prayer of "The 7 Grand Journeys" for the movement of establishing churches; the 12 parishes; and 70 disciples.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, right now, at this time, thank you for working through "The Throne's Blessing." The servants of the Lord have gathered here at this place. Thank you for fulfilling Your Kingdom. Before these servants of the Lord leave and to the places where they'll go, may Your Kingdom be established. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
