Hello, let’s take a look at the Bible verse from Mark 11:22. Starting from verse 22, Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God. Truly, I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him. Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” 

When we believe in God, we can see how things happen in our lives. For example, when you go to the army, there are military dogs. They train them from a young age, and the cost of training them can be very high, sometimes reaching up to ten million won. If they eat the wrong food, it can lead to serious consequences.

그래서 주인이 주는 것이고, 지나간 사람들이 주는 것이고, 정확하게 구분해서 주인이 주는 것만 먹어야 하는 거예요. 이제 긴 이틀 기면가 거 아니겠습니까? 그러면 지나간 고기를 맛없다고 말하지 않겠죠. 불고기는 고기인데 너무 맛있잖아요. 근데 미안하지만 그 고기를 먹고 나면 그 고기 안에 죽지 않을 만한 고기를 먹고서 고스 인이는 먹어야 돼요. 주인 사람은 우주인이 주는 것은 먹지 말아야지. 이틀 미치려고 하는 거죠. 그때 또 지나간 놈이고, 두 말하지 않고 바로 고기를 다 먹는 거예요. 그래, 그 고기를 먹고 나면 안 죽을 고생을 하게 돼요. 내가 미쳤지, 지나간 도이는 걸 이렇게 다 먹지. 틀리던던 또 뭡니까? 저에 심했던 그 주인이 주는 것, 먹었어야 되는데 다시는 주인이 주는 것은 안 먹어요. 그다음 날 고하고, 그죠? 그걸 몇십 번, 몇천 번 반복적인.

One day, the trained dog, having undergone repetitive training, decided to follow the owner's command and not eat everything that was given to it. The price for such a trained dog can rise to several million or even billions. If it fails to pass the training, it becomes useless. The price can be quite high, as it costs a lot of money to train one of these dogs. If you throw food at them, they will instinctively eat it, but they should only eat what the owner provides. Similarly, we are instructed to believe in God's word. Today, the Lord's message reminds us how painful it is to live a life based on what is visible. When a woman gets married, she must commit to one man. Life becomes complicated and painful when there are many men involved.

In a relationship, one should only be satisfied with their partner. If you start looking at other men, what does that mean? It's a very painful life. If one is unfaithful, the worries will never end. In John chapter 11, Lazarus is introduced as the main character. He is very ill. Martha tells Jesus that her brother is gravely ill. Jesus responds to Martha and says, This illness does not lead to death; rather, it is for God's glory. After hearing this, Martha, with a heavy heart, goes home. The reason Martha and Mary believe Jesus' words is that they have faith. However, the problem is that they do not fully understand it as faith. They go home, hoping their brother will recover, but he has died. In Korea, when someone dies, their body is often buried in the ground, and people mourn for their loved ones. Martha is grieving because her brother has passed away.

I believed in God and went to church, but why did I have such a difficult life? Jesus is here, but when He looked at me, He was embarrassed and saddened. When Jesus was about to die, He said it was for His glory. Among those who went to church, there wasn't a single person who truly believed in Him. Jesus was saddened and embarrassed because there was no one who believed His words. He said that if you believe in Me, you will live forever, but there was not a single person in that household who believed in the words of Jesus, not even Martha. The dead people there could not believe that if you believe, you will not die. If there had been people who believed in Jesus' words among them, they would have understood that this sickness is not unto death.

죽음을 두려워하지 말라는 말씀은 매우 편안하지만, 복음은 진정으로 중요한 메시지입니다. 예수님이 하셨던 말씀은 내 마음에 깊이 와닿습니다. 말씀은 마음을 고요하게 하고, 그로 인해 고통스럽고 괴로워하며 슬프게 살아가는 사람들에게 희망을 줍니다. 사람들은 하나님의 말씀을 믿기 때문에 기뻐하고 즐거워하며 행복하게 살 수 있습니다. 그래서 믿는 사람과 믿지 않는 사람의 삶에는 천국과 지옥 같은 차이가 있습니다. 믿는 사람들은 죽음을 두려워하지 않으며, 예수님이 말씀하신 대로 죽지 않고 영원히 살 것이라고 믿습니다. 삶은 계속해서 이어지며, 주인이 주는 것과 사람의 노력으로 얻는 것의 차이를 깨닫게 됩니다. 주인이 주는 것만 받아들이면 삶의 본질은 같지만, 그 가치는 천차만별입니다. 당신은 하나님의 말씀을 믿고 싶습니까, 아니면 다른 것을 믿고 싶습니까?

무통운에 달리는 것, 우리마다 그 사 죽어 썩 들새 속 보이는 거, 고면 빠지고. 계속 그렇게 생을 살다가 어느 날 하나님의 음성을 듣고, 아니야, 이 일들은 평이야. 내가 말씀을 믿을 마음에 선을 한 사람들이 있다는 거. 야고보서 1장 6절, 믿음으로 구하고 조금 의심하지 말라. 의심하는 자는 마치 바람에 밀려 요동하는 물결과 같으니. 하나님의 말씀은 어제나 오늘이나 영원히 변하지 않아요. 말씀은 변하지 않아요. 그대로예요. 변하는 것은 우리 생각이 변하고, 우리 마음이 변하죠. 그래서 의심하는 자는 마치 바람에 밀려 요동하는 바다 물결 같아요. 바다 물결은 어떻습니까? 바람이 불지 않으면 가만히 있죠. 하지만 바람이 불면 요동을 하잖아요. 그런데 바람도 치지 않는다면, 하나님의 편을 믿을 것이냐, 마음이 정해지지 않는 사람들은 물결 같은 그는. 야고보서 1장 7절에.

보면, 사람들은 무엇이든지 깨기를 생각하지 말라. 자절 두 마음을 품고 모든 일을 하는 자. 그 사람들은 왜 물결처럼 편에 따라 늘 고통스럽고 어렵고, 좋은 일이 오면 좋아하고, 슬픈 일이면 슬퍼하고, 행복한 일이면 행복하고, 불행한 일이면 불행해지는지. 언제는 좋다가, 언제는 싫다가, 언제는 기다리다가, 막 종잡을 수 없는 거. 그러니까 그런 사람들은 마음이 불안해지는 거다. 사람은 마음을 하지 않으면 생을 살기 때문. 그래서 생이 불행한 거야. 말씀 가운데 마음을 정하고 살면 우리가 갔다 오면, 날 사람이 마음을 새롭게 주는 것과 지나간 것이 주는 것. 그 속을 살다가 짐승이지만, 어느 날 마음을 딱 한 아, 내가 주인이 주는 것을 먹으면 주인이 주는 것과 다른 것을 입을 때 너무 달렸거든요. 그러면서 어느 날 짐승이지만 마음을 한다. 사람은 말씀과 함께 마음을 하고 사는 사람이 있고, 그 마음을 하고 있는 사람은 굉장히.

Life is full of difficulties, but those hardships cannot seize my heart. If I live according to the words spoken, I will surely fulfill the promises made to me. If I can just settle my heart and live this way, that is true happiness. It is about not being able to hold onto His heart. A truly happy person is someone who does not let their heart be troubled. Let's look at 2 Corinthians 13:5. Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you? Unless, of course, you fail the test. This verse challenges us to reflect on whether we truly have faith. When a person's heart is set on the Word of God, it becomes clear how they should respond to any issues that arise.

Being happy in your heart is because God has promised you. You say you live, right? You haven't died. Your heart is not drawn to despair. A happy person decides in their heart and lives according to God's word. Those who do not have a heart that is set on living in blessing will, one day, feel the pain of living a life that is like receiving from a thief rather than from the owner. As they live, they will realize that they cannot eat anything except what the owner gives. While living a life according to this, those who believe and set their hearts will be happy. Now, let’s look at Hebrews. In Hebrews 10:14, the Bible says that those who are sanctified by one offering are made perfect forever. The blood of the cross has made us holy. It not only cleanses our past sins but also transforms our very lives. Yes, it is not just about past sins.

It is not about washing; within the word eternity, there is the past, present, and future—all sins are included. There are no stories without the Bible. No matter how much one searches, such stories do not exist. What can I say? It has become so through the sacrifice of another. Who can say that it will be eternally proclaimed? In the scriptures, when we look at our own reflection, we see nothing but our sinful nature. Therefore, we cry out, Lord, I am a filthy sinner. 

And I believe in the word of God. I will only believe in the word. If I go to the Lord, and the Lord is perfect, then the heart of the one who receives that word will be filled with salvation. Now, as I look at myself, I realize that I have neglected the word. Those who do not set their hearts to goodness, when they believe in the scriptures, appear holy and perfect, praising the Lord with Hallelujah. However, to enter the kingdom of heaven, one must believe in the truth.

You must believe to be saved, and God clearly speaks about this. A sinner cannot become sinless until death. You can only become complete through this. There is no other way to achieve this. When you believe and find happiness, what does it say in the verses? It says that we bear witness that the Holy Spirit is one. The Spirit is our comforter. What does it promise? In verse 16, it explains the reason why Jesus was crucified and died. Once Jesus makes a promise, He never goes back on it. God’s promises are written in our hearts and minds, just like in the days of old when God wrote on the hearts and minds of the people. The first covenant was the law, given through Moses, where God inscribed it with His finger on tablets. And what does it say? Do not serve other gods. This is called the law, the first covenant. Now, let’s continue.

The second example is about the heart and thoughts of a person who wants to record them. Why is there the first commandment? Why is the law absent? The law says, Do not do this, do not do that. This is the law. If we keep all the commandments in the world, we can be righteous. However, in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus explains in detail not to have certain thoughts. I tell you, anyone who looks at a person with lust has already committed adultery in their heart. If someone has the desire to steal, they have already broken the law, even if they haven't physically stolen anything. This law applies to everyone, but is there anyone in the world who can keep it? There is not a single person. That is why God gave us the law. It was created to guide us, and the angels are there to help. If we open the lid, we cannot handle it; in that moment, if we are judged by the law, we all deserve to go to hell because we are all sinners. God loves us so much that He wants to save us, which is why the first covenant was placed in the box with the lid.

버린 것에 대해 율법을 지키는 사람은 세상에 한 사람도 없고, 두 번째 새 언약을 주신 것은 두 번째 새 언약이 우리 마음과 생각에 새겨지기 위함입니다. 히브리서 8장 16절에서는 마음에 새겨진다고 합니다. 우리가 새 언약을 받아들이는 것입니다. 아직도 언약을 이루어야 하는데 이번에 새 언약은 17절 언약입니다. 자, 다 같이 한번 읽어봅시다. 이제 신약에 와서 우리가 새 언약을 17절에 다 같이 읽어봅시다. 저희 저 법을 내가 다시는 기억하지 않으리라. 예수님께서 우리에게 약속하셨습니다. 죄라도 너희와 법을 내가 다시는 기억하지 않겠다고 말씀하신 것입니다. 예수님이 십자가에서 그 죄값을 다 치르셨기 때문에 하나님은 우리와 불법을 다시는 기억하지 않겠다고 새 언약을 세우신 것입니다. 이것은 즉 죄를 위하여 제사드릴 것이 없다, 없다는 의미입니다. 그런데 아직까지도 하나님이 예수님께 리 약속하신 저희 죄를 다시는 기억하지 않겠다는 약속을 하셨는데, 그럼에도 불구하고 우리는 매일 우리 자신의 모습을 돌아보게

There is not a single person in the world who would say that they are beautiful. We only have our own ugly selves. In the Bible, it says that under the new covenant, there is no longer a need for sacrifices for sin. The issue of sin was perfectly resolved at the cross, once and for all. On the last day, there will definitely be a judgment separating sinners from the righteous, just as a shepherd separates sheep. Jesus will judge each person; there will be no one exempt. The gates of hell are for sinners, and there is no escape from that. This is not just a matter of mere words; it’s a lie. Many people have lived their lives attending church and trying to live with a clear conscience, claiming they lived righteously, but that is a falsehood. There are no sinners like that. You see, Jesus asks why you don’t believe in Him. He promised you.

예수님께서는 히브리서 10장 17절에서 저희와 다시는 기억하지 않겠다고 약속하셨습니다. 이 사람은 하나님 말씀을 믿지 않고, 마음을 달리해야 합니다. 교회의 마음을 가져야 구원의 법을 따를 수 있습니다. 제가 말씀드리고 싶은 것은, 하나님은 완벽하신 분이지 대충 일하신 분이 아니잖아요. 저는 거룩합니다. 왜냐하면 예수님께서 저를 영원히 씻어주셨기 때문입니다. 과거의 죄를 기억하지 않으신다는 것은 정말 큰 축복입니다. 많은 사람들이 거짓말을 하며 살아가고, 그로 인해 상처받기도 합니다. 하지만 저는 지금까지 태어나서 거짓말을 한 적이 없습니다. 교회에 가서 다시는 죄를 짓지 않겠다고 약속한 것도 솔직한 마음에서 나온 것입니다.

밖에 없고, 저는 불가한입니다. 그런데 이 한 인을 위해서 예피 같 람 구고 에서 예가가 죄었습니다. 그래서는 온전합니다. 그래서는 합니다. 그 십가 피가 내 모든 죄를 지었다고 실 믿습니다. 법을 다시는지 하나의 약속을 믿는 믿음, 저는 의롭다고 믿습니다. 믿음으로 저는 합니다. 하나님이 저희 죄와 법을 다시는 기 않게 하셨습니다. 사람은 행복하지 않고 신앙이 어렵고 힘들고 피곤하면 마음을 정하지 않았기 때문입니다. 두 마음을 품고 있는 거죠. 자, 야고보 성경을 보고 마치겠습니다. 야고보 성경 1장은 그는 마치 바람에 밀려 요동하는 물결 같으니, 자절이란 무엇이든지 주께 두 마음을 품어 모든 일의 정함이 없는 자들이라고 말씀합니다. 마음을 정하지 않으면 주님께 오지 않으며, 약속을 받지 못합니다. 고통이 없을 수 없고, 계속 고생이 생길 것입니다. 그런데 말씀은요, 아니에요. 예수님께서 이 병은 죽을 병이 아니라고 하셨습니다.

This is nothing at all. Yes, it's all a report, a lie, a blessing. That person's heart is rotten, but they are too happy. That happiness can only be found in the heart of one person. It’s the same, but one person makes up their mind while the other does not. Those who do not make up their minds live a life that is like dung. It becomes boring and they throw away their beautiful dreams. It’s difficult like this. However, those who live with a determined heart face problems like everyone else. Jesus definitely promised me that He is God and a blessing. This is not a sad thing; it’s not painful. It’s a joyful thing. Those who live with a determined heart in the word do so, and if you do not make up your mind, life becomes too sad and painful. Even if you have not made up your mind until now, if you always decide in your heart, everything will be a blessing.

I promise to the Almighty, who is not lying, that I will sanctify my wealth. This is faith; this is the heart of salvation. If you look at your own image, you will see that you are an automatic sinner. Do you want to see your own reflection? Do you want to believe in the words of God that you do not remember? If you put your heart into His words, I believe that your life will change into a very happy and blessed one.
