Paul to the Churches

Day 81 Romans 8
Day 82 Galatians 5:16 – 6:10

Day 85 Colossians 1: 1 - 23

As we discovered in our readings from the Acts of the Apostles last week, Paul travelled extensively all over the Roman Empire, preaching the gospel and founding churches. It is somewhat humbling, for those of us who have been to these places as pilgrims, to realise that journeys which take just a few hours on a bus, took Paul many days of hard walking – and he was far from being a young man when he set out. It was an exciting and dangerous mission, but in spite of all the difficulties he encountered, he was effective.

But his church planting did cause other issues. How could he keep these communities of new believers going in the right direction after he was gone? Most of them were planted in pagan cities, complete with idolatry and immorality. Often Paul only had time to preach the basics of the Christian faith before his enemies drove him out of town. There was so much more that he needed to communicate about the gospel, Christian living, the church, and much more besides.

In addition to his enemies, Paul had to contend with false teachers who were roaming around confusing people by trying to discredit him and his ministry. And to compound all this, Paul often ended up in prison, so his communication channels were limited. It must have been incredibly frustrating and worrying to see his life’s work eroding before his eyes. That’s why he was a keen letter writer. In addition to prayer, letter writing was his strategy for strengthening and building the Church.

In these 5 readings, we will cover extracts from Paul’s letters to five different cities – Rome, Galatia, Ephesus, Philippi, Colossae. Each letter contains different advice and comment appropriate to the particular needs of the people he was writing to. But there are also some strong common themes running through all of these letters. Faith was based upon the unchanging Good News of Jesus.

As you read Paul’s letters, ask yourself: what could I do to strengthen and encourage the Christians around me? In some ways, the circumstances Paul was addressing were very different from today. But in other ways, they are surprisingly similar. Ask God to show you how you can join Paul in his mission to build the Church.

The Gospel is good news!

Good News that God loves us;
Good News that God has come to find us;
Good News that in Jesus Christ, God offers us the promise of new life.

St Paul writes boldly to the Corinthians: For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified (1Cor 2:2).

The simple fact is that belief in Jesus Christ – his death and resurrection – is fundamental to Christian faith. Unless we recognise what Jesus has done for us, submit ourselves to him as our Saviour, and acknowledge him as our Lord, there can be no recognition that we are a part of the part family. Jesus’ claim upon our lives is unique, and it is total. It is only through his death and resurrection that the way has been opened up for us to receive the precious gift of eternal life.

As we remember the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, the most important decision that any of us can ever make is to consider again what Jesus has done for us on the cross and give ourselves, unreservedly, to him.

Make it your prayer that you may follow Him more closely and submit your life to him. St John reminds us:

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. (1 John 4:10)

And a prayer:

Lord Jesus Christ, I’m sorry for the things in my life that have been wrong.
I now turn away from everything that I know to be wrong.
Thank you that you died for me on the Cross. I now receive your forgiveness.
I trust you with my life. And I ask you to come and to fill me with your Spirit,
And be with me forever. Thank you for the enormity of your love,
Lord Jesus Christ, my Saviour and Lord. Amen.

Day 77 Acts 13,14
Day 78 Acts 15
Day 79 Acts 16 – 20
Day 80 Acts 25 - 28

We stay in the Acts of the Apostles.

The story is one of good news – how the Good News of Jesus Christ spread around the world. It is one of the fastest-paced, most exciting books in the Bible. These readings cover just the highlights – find time to read the whole book!

The key player in Acts is Paul (though his conversion to Christ doesn’t come until Chapter 9). He describes himself as ‘the least of the apostles’ (1 Corinthians 15:9). His Jewish name is Saul and he was one of the young Jewish leaders amongst the Pharisees, who were very traditional and devout. At the same time, Paul was also a Roman citizen by birth (Paul was his Roman name). The privilege of citizen was often conferred on non-Roman families across the Empire. This gave him a considerable amount of freedom and privilege in society at that time. God dramatically intervened in Paul’s life and used these two aspects of his background to make him the most effective missionary that the world has ever known.

These five readings follow Paul on his ‘missionary journeys’. Many Bibles have maps in the back that trace these journeys. Find one and take a look. You will notice that Paul covered a lot of ground, mostly on foot. He also had to endure many kinds of troubles. Listen to how Paul himself describes these experiences:

I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have laboured and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches (2 Corinthians 11:23-28).

Why did Paul endure all this? Firstly, because he had had a real encounter with Jesus. And he realised right away that if Jesus Christ was alive, it was the only thing in the world that really mattered. But secondly, Paul was God’s ‘chosen instrument’ to share the gospel and plant the Church throughout the known world.

No other Christian leader has had as great an influence upon the growth of the church as has Paul.

Images of Christ Church - April 19th

It all began when I was a student. Being a good Anglican, I sat at the back of the lecture theatre - a good place to make a rapid exit at coffee break. The problem was, over the course of several months, the lecturer's writing on the blackboard (yes, it was a long time ago) seemed to be getting smaller and smaller – until I could no longer read it. I needed to move closer to the front, until the day came when, even on the front row, I was straining to read what was on the board.

I reluctantly concluded that the problem may not be his writing, but my eyes, so off to the optician I went. I well remember my first day wearing my new glasses. I was walking up the road opposite Durham Cathedral, one of the most spectacular views in the UK, and was stunned by the amount of detail I could see on the west face of the cathedral, which I had never noticed before. There was a clarity to my vision which enabled me to see the world, quite literally, with a new pair of eyes.

The writer of the Book of Proverbs once wrote, 'Where there is no vision the people perish.' Our spiritual vision is not so very different from our physical vision - how easily it can deteriorate – very slowly so we fail to notice it – until something serious happens, and we suddenly realise that we have moved a long way from God.

The lesson is simple: stay focussed! Never forget to do the little things well – pray, read your Bible, meet with other believers. Our spiritual lives are important, and keeping a close relationship with God brings purpose and direction to our lives. I may not always understand everything that happens, but it is good to remember that God offers me clear vision and direction.

I need a good pair of spectacles in order to see clearly, and in spiritual terms, it is equally important that I remain focussed upon God in order that I may understand how I fit into His plans.

It might take some effort, but the results are clear - a purposeful and well-directed life.

In the words of the old hymn:

Turn your eyes upon Jesus;
look full in his wonderful face,
and the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
in the light of his glory and grace.

No matter where you go in the world today, you will find a church. Christians can be found everywhere! Church buildings are everywhere. But the bigger question is – who will you find in these churches? Let’s never forget – the church is people, not buildings. The church is there whenever disciples of Jesus Christ gather together in His name.

So how did the Church get started, and what is it supposed to be?

This week’s readings take us back to the very beginnings of the Church and help us to understand the origins and purpose of the Church. Last week’s readings on The Cross of Christ left the disciples reeling from the whirlwind of Jesus’ death, resurrection, and ascension. They had no idea what would happen next. All Jesus said before he returned to heaven was, ‘Wait’ (Acts 1:4). Wait? Wait for what?

As it turned out, Jesus was preparing to send them an incredible gift, the Holy Spirit, who was ‘poured out’ on all people on the Day of Pentecost. That event empowered Jesus’ followers and ignited an evangelism explosion. It was the birth of the Church.

So, what is the Church? How easy it is to think of the Church in terms of denomination or building. Some people act as if the Church is a chain of social clubs for good people to attend. And so easily, we can think of “going to church” in terms of being entertained: “”I really enjoyed/didn’t enjoy today’s service. But the essence of the Church is far more profound. The Church is literally a union of Jesus and all those who have decided to follow him. God calls us to be part of His family.

And the mission of the Church is to share the Good News of salvation with all people. This wasn’t so clear at first. Because God had developed a special relationship with the Jewish people, many people thought that salvation was only for them. But God stepped in at Pentecost and blew the doors wide open. The Gospel and the Church are open to everyone – all people of every nation.

Once Jesus followers got that straight, the Church began to grow by thousands of people each day. It was out-of-control growth and not even opposition or persecution could stop it. In fact, they merely served to accelerate its growth. And the Church continues to grow today.

Why then, does it feel that in many places, there so many empty churches today, whilst in other places the church is growing rapidly? Sadly, it is easy to lose sight of the original mission of the Church. Our challenge, as we read these extracts from the Acts of the Apostles, is to rediscover what that mission is, and to get out there, and live the Good News.

Images of Christ Church, April 12th.

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. (1 John 5:13)

How can we be certain? How can we know that we have the gift of eternal life? There’s little doubt in John’s mind. He was there. He knew the death and resurrection of Jesus were real events, and the rest of his life bears testimony to this truth.

But what about us? Can we be certain of the truth of it all?

Over the last few weeks, we have shared the familiar events of our Lord’s passion, death, and resurrection. It’s an amazing story; a life-changing story. And there is plenty of evidence.

Read the Gospels. The truth of the story is depicted in such detail, we can only be amazed by it and receive it.

But apart from the physical and literary evidence for the life of Christ there is a different kind of evidence – the evidence of changed lives. Think of that group of disciples, huddled together in the Upper Room, fearing for their lives. Within a few weeks they were transformed into the most powerful group of evangelists that the world has ever known. The truth of Jesus Christ became the foundation stone of their lives. And not one of them ever broke ranks. Even when facing persecution and martyrdom, not one broke down and recanted their faith. Had they concocted a lie, surely at least one of them would have cracked.

Then there’s Paul. Brought up a devout Jew, steeped in the Scriptures – destined for a high career within the Jewish faith – when he encountered Jesus on the Damascus Road, his life was turned upside-down and he never once looked back, proclaiming Jesus – risen, ascended, glorified.

So it has gone on, down the centuries. Millions have come to believe and know that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father!

And in this week when we have been looking at new photos of the moon, did you know that there has even been a “Communion Service” on the moon? Buzz Aldrin took with him bread and wine, blessed by his pastor, on the very first moon landing, and received them before he made his moon walk. Jesus Christ is Lord of all.

So how about you? Have you welcomed the Good News of Jesus Christ into your life? Welcome him! Receive him! Live your life for a higher purpose!

Day 47 Read St John's Gospel

Read John 21: 15 – 25

Jesus and Peter

How did the disciples feel after the Resurrection? We deserted Jesus in his hour of need. Will he want us back? Can he ever use us again? Peter especially, must have felt dreadful. Three times, he had denied Jesus. Was there any way back for him? He must surely have doubted it.

We too might feel “I’ve let Jesus down. He can never use me again”.
Like Peter, we may feel unsure. Will God accept me? Can He really use me?

Think about Peter: the big mouth. ‘Me Lord, I’ll never desert you. I’ll stick by you. Even if all the others run off, I’m your man.’ But if Peter can be found wanting, and still find redemption, perhaps there’s hope for all of us. Peter’s failure wasn’t the end of it. After the resurrection he must have been terrified by the thought of seeing Jesus again. ‘How can the Lord ever use me again? I’ve jumped in with both feet and failed.’

Don’t we feel like that sometimes? The end of the road. Jack it all in. But it’s precisely at that moment that the Lord does the greatest miracle in Peter’s life. Jesus meets him and sets him back on course.

Peter’s three-fold denial is neatly countered by a three-fold question sequence.

Peter, do you love me? Yes Lord, I do love you.
Peter, do you really love me? Yes Lord, you know that I love you.
Peter, are you sure? Do you really and truly love me?
Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.

And Peter’s affirmation of love is coupled with a three-fold commission: ‘Peter, feed my lambs; Peter, take care of my sheep; Peter, feed my sheep.’

Not only was Peter forgiven and reinstated. He was given a job to do. The man who denied Jesus, is entrusted with the care, support, nurture of the Church. Similarly, God calls us, just as we are. He takes us, just as we are. He uses us, just as we are.
Just like Peter, He puts us back on our feet, and uses us. God, the ever loving parent.

God calls us to take the adventure of following Him. He picks us up when we fall, and commissions us to do great things in His name.

And so the adventure of following Jesus continues.

E100 Week 14 The Cross of Christ

The cross must be the most recognised and reproduced symbol in the history of the world. Not only is it used in Christian settings in churches and stained-glass windows, or on Bibles and prayer books, but it has also become popular in secular settings such as jewellery and emblems. What is so important about the cross?

As we have followed the E100 course, everything we have read so far is building up to this week. The whole purpose of the coming of Jesus Christ, as the fulfilment of the Scriptures was that he should be executed on a cross. That single event is quite literally the crossroads of time and eternity. It was on the cross that Jesus died for the sins of the world, thereby making a way for all people to have a relationship with God, one that would last for ever.

But the popularity of the cross has blurred the horror of how it was originally used. When Jesus was on earth, the Romans used crucifixion as a way of punishing criminals or humiliating enemies of the state. It was a gruesome form of public ex*****on. Victims were usually whipped first and forded to carry the crossbeam to the place of ex*****on. They were nailed to the beam, which was hoisted up on a stake. Death was a slow, agonising process and usually came from a loss of blood or suffocation. Strange that we have turned it into a fashion accessory!

Jesus knew exactly what he was in for (Luke 9:18-22). And even though his mission on earth was to die on the cross, it was still a struggle (Mark 14:32 – 42). But he did it – first, because it was his Father’s will and second, because it was the only way to pay the price for sin, once and for all. Without the cross, there could be no salvation.

Jesus never intended the cross to become a fashion statement. For him, it was a symbol of all-out commitment, and one that he expected of his followers (‘anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple’). As move into the rest of the New Testament, it becomes evident that ther early Church clearly understood the significance of the cross (Philippians 2:5-11; Galatians 2:20; Romans 6:5-11).

These readings lead us to the heart of faith. They show God’s plan of salvation was acted out here on earth. We have reached the grand crescendo of the Gospel story.
