Message Notes: 9 I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. 12 Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, 15 his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength. – Revelation 1v9-16 (ESV) “A man says to me, 'Can you explain the seven trumpets of the Revelation?'

Message Notes: So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would me. (18)And if he has wronged you in any way, or owes you anything, charge that to my account. (19) I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it — not to mention to you that you owe me even your very self. (20)Yes, brother, may I benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ. (21)Since I am confident of your obedience, I am writing to you, KNOWING that you will do EVEN MORE than I say. (22) Meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, since I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you. —Philemon 17-21 (CSB) At that moment the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Suddenly, the Lord’s words flashed through Peter’s mind: “Before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.” - Luke 22:61 (NLT) (14) This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead. (15) When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." (16) Again Jesus said, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Take care of my sheep." (17) The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my sheep. - John 21: 14-18 (NIV) Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. - Ephesians 4:31-32 So what’s are THE SPIRITUAL fruits that we must have as believers on dealing with a brother or sister who has wronged you? 1. Love “Love is our trademark.” “by this all people will know you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” - John 13:35 (ESV) True love is not appealing. True love is on the contrary of our world view (I’m only going to love those that love me.) If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. - 1 Corinthians 13:1–8a (ESV) 2. Forbearance (meaning self-control and restraining from taking action) The Lord will fight for you while you (only need to) keep silent and remain calm: - Exodus 14:14 God knows how to deal with our situations “My dear brothers and sisters, take not of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20. Because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. 21. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you which can save you.” - James 1:19 - 21 “Be quick to listen to God’s thoughts on a matter,slow to speak your own point of view, and slow to anger, you should not like what God has to say in contrast to your own human perspective.” - Dr. Tony Evans 3. Gentleness Let your gentle spirit (your graciousness, unselfish, mercy, tolerance,and patience) be known to all people. The Lord is near. - Philippians 4:5 (AMP) I will say to the Lord,”My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!” - Psalm 91:2 WHAT GOD RESTORES HE MAKES BETTER!

But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, — Philippians 3v13 (ESV) 2. I’m convinced God is working in my life 15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.16 You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?17 So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. — Matthew 7v15-17 (ESV) 3.

Message Notes: Not that I have already reached the goal or am already perfect, but I make every effort to take hold of it because I also have been taken hold of by Christ Jesus. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and reaching forward to what is ahead, I pursue as my goal the prize promised by God’s heavenly call in Christ Jesus. Therefore, let all of us who are mature think this way. And if you think differently about anything, God will reveal this also to you. In any case, we should live up to whatever truth we have attained. - Philippians 3:12-16 CSB All memories can be moments but all moments can't be ascertained as memories as all of them aren't stored in memory or they aren't relatively memorable as those moments which are stored as indelible memories. - Unknown We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. - Romans 8:28 CSB 1.The Past Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come! - 2 Corinthians 5:17 CSB Don't be bound by the past and its failures. But don't forget its lessons either. - Billy Graham 2. The Present But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you.

Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.

Message Notes: 8 Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required, 9 yet for love's sake I prefer to appeal to you—I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus— 10 I appeal to you for my child, Onesimus,[b] whose father I became in my imprisonment. 11 (Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.) 12 I am sending him back to you, sending my very heart. 13 I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel, 14 but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own accord. 15 For this perhaps is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back forever, 16 no longer as a bondservant but more than a bondservant, as a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. – Philemon 8-16 (ESV) because I hear of your love and of the faith that you have toward the Lord Jesus and for all the saints, — Philemon 5 (ESV) So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. — Galatians 6v10 (ESV) The quality of your relationships are determined by how you handle conflict. 15 “You shall not give up to his master a slave who has escaped from his master to you. 16 He shall dwell with you, in your midst, in the place that he shall choose within one of your towns, wherever it suits him. You shall not wrong him. — Deuteronomy 23v15-16 (ESV) Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense. – Proverbs 19v11 (ESV) The effects of unforgiveness: Bitterness Isolation Distrust Fear / Worry Depression Hindered perception You can’t conquer what you don’t confront. What does Forgiveness do? 1. Forgiveness changes me 12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. — Colossians 3v12-13 (ESV) The Types of Forgiveness: Detached forgiveness - reduction in negative feelings but no reconciliation in the relationship Limited forgiveness - reduction in negative feelings, partial restoration, with less emotions Full forgiveness - total cessation of negative feelings, relationship is fully restored Forgiveness frees you from needing to get even. 2. Forgiveness is a choice 13 I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel, 14 but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own accord. – Philemon 13-14 (ESV) Forgiveness means you don’t bring up what someone did anymore… When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. — John 16v33 (ESV) 3. Forgiveness is Christlike 16 no longer as a bondservant but more than a bondservant, as a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. 17 So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me. — Philemon 16-17 (ESV)

Message Notes: 14 Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. 16 But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness, 17 and their talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 who have swerved from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already happened. They are upsetting the faith of some. 19 But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.” – 2 Timothy 2v14-19 (ESV) Orthotomeo (handle) – to cut straight, to proceed straight, hold a straight course 4 They will reject the truth and chase after myths. 5 But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. – 2 Timothy 4v4-5 (ESV) For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. – Romans 7v15 (ESV) WHY DO WE POST ON SOCIAL? Self-presentation: positioning yourself they way you want to be seen 24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? — Matthew 16v24-26 (ESV) WHY DO WE SHARE OTHERS CONTENT?

18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.” 19 Now out of the ground the Lord God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name. 20 The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him. 21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. 23 Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.” 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed. – Genesis 2v18-25 (ESV) Garden - cultivated environment that produces fruit. Marriage - cultivated environment that produces fruit. 3 And he told them many things in parables, saying: “A sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. 5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, 6 but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. 7 Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. 8 Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. 9 He who has ears, let him hear.” — Matthew 13v3-9 (ESV) A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short. – Andre Maurois He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD. - Proverbs 18v22 (ESV) Healthy relationships have: 1. REST 8 And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9 And out of the ground the Lord God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. – Genesis 2v8-9 (ESV) 2. RESPONSIBILITY The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. – Genesis 2v15 (ESV) 28 In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, 30 because we are members of his body. 31 “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” 32 This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. 33 However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. — Ephesians 5v28-33 (ESV) 3. RESTRICTION 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” – Genesis 2v16-17 (ESV) 4. RESPONSE 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. – Genesis 3v4-6 (ESV) Every marriage needs a response. NOT A REACTION.
