Jesus’ All-Night Prayer to Call Disciples Who Know Their Need for the Gospel

Before calling the twelve disciples and appointing them as apostles, Jesus prayed to God all night.


After establishing his disciples, Jesus healed many people who were suffering under the oppression of the evil spirits.


True salvation is receiving the rightful Lord of our souls.


Jesus Christ, who died as a sinner despite being innocent, was an unjust victim, yet he is the true Savior who willingly endured death on the cross for the salvation of all humanity.


Without salvation, the monster within us compels us to live according to our own standards.

This monster becomes a factory generating endless problems as a greedy liar and murderer, abandoning truth for falsehood.


The monster of darkness drags life into total darkness;

the monster of chaos destroys direction and leads to addiction;

the monster of emptiness leaves us perpetually unsatisfied. 

We cannot overcome them by human effort, so Jesus called his disciples and gave them the mission to drive out these monsters through the gospel movement.


Jesus did not call the Pharisees or Sadducees, who claimed to believe in God, nor the scribes who knew the Scriptures well, to be His disciples. 

He called those who were weak and imperfect, yet recognized their need for the gospel, and made them apostles.


The gospel is God’s power that grants salvation to all who believe. 

Therefore, do not be ashamed of the gospel.


Begin the immortal battle against the monsters that drive others or yourself mad, that kill others, or lead to self-destruction.


The only power capable of destroying the monsters within us is Christ, the King of kings who destroys the devil's work.


The only way to remove all curses and disasters is Christ, the true Priest.

The only way to encounter God is through Jesus Christ, the true Prophet.


In the name of Jesus Christ, the light of life, destroy the monster of darkness. 

By the grace and truth in Jesus Christ, destroy the monster of emptiness. 

Through the covenant of world evangelization, in which Jesus commissioned his disciples to be witnesses of Christ to the ends of the earth, destroy the monster of chaos that robs the entire direction of life.

Then all illnesses caused by demonic oppression will be completely healed. Amen!

(Luke 6:12–19, John 8:44, Romans 1:16, 1 John 3:8, Mark 10:45, John 14:6)

The Thoughts of Re-Creation, The Secret to Becoming Lovable Before God and People

Image
The twelve-year-old Jesus was not an ordinary boy. As prophesied by the prophet Isaiah, Jesus was a shoot came up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch bore fruit upon whom the Spirit of the LORD rested – the Spirit of the LORD, the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. He was the fulfiller of the covenant. Born from the bosom of God, the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. However, Mary and Joseph, after twelve years, lost hold of that faith and searched for Jesus for three days with worry, frustration, and irritation, captured by the thoughts of the flesh. Jesus, the remnant who grew in stature and wisdom and in favor with God, knew he must be in his Father God’s house, the place of grace. However, his parents, who had strayed from the place of the covenant and grace, could not enjoy the blessing even with Jesus the Messiah right beside them. The Virgin Mary, who once sa...

A Gospel Community of Worship Centered on the Covenant: 315 Nation

Image
The descendants of Jacob, who possessed the covenant, were fruitful and multiplied greatly and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them. The genealogy of the covenant recorded by Moses is directly connected to God’s work of salvation. To be related to God’s work of salvation means to be headed toward the land of Canaan flowing with milk and honey, the land where the Messiah would come. Though Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died, the Israelites who stood within God’s work of salvation and timing were greatly blessed according to God's promise to make them as numerous as the stars in the sky and the sand of the sea. When we worship centered on the covenant just as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob did, we will see evidence that we will increase and multiply by God’s method. This is the easiest way to overcome the world. We are not of the world, but are chosen by God. We are the remnants who carry God’s mission, the pilgrims who evang...

The Re-Creative Language that Transforms Our Thoughts Centered on the Gospel

Image
To love one another does not require much effort. If our thoughts are properly aligned with the gospel, we can love one another just as the Apostle John loved the elder Gaius. When we transform our thoughts centered on the gospel, we begin to speak the words of the gospel. The re-creative language Christians use brings prosperity to the soul, success in all things, and strength in health. "Beloved, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well." Elder Gaius, who walked in the truth, was a disciple of Christ with the image of one worthy to be called “Beloved,” and used the language of the gospel. The Apostle John’s record of Elder Gaius, Demetrius the witness of the truth, and Diotrephes the hinderer of the gospel was intended to show that the outcome of the walk of faith depends on whether we crush the serpent’s head in the name of Jesus Christ who came to destroy the devil's work. Elder Gaius walked in th...
