			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.holybible.or.kr/B_GAE/cgi/bibleftxt.php?VR=9&amp;CI=11277&amp;CV=99&amp;FR=H">사도행전 13장</a> 16절에서 41절에는 바울이 비시디아 안디옥에서의 설교가 기록되어 있습니다. 사도행전에 기록된 것 중에서는 이것이 바울의 첫 설교입니다. 누가가 압축력 있고 간결하게 기록하고 있는 이 설교에, 사도 바울의 신학적 사상과 성경을 보는 관점이 뚜렷하게 나타나고 있음을 알게 되었습니다. 여기에는 김홍전 박사의 설교집 &#8220;<a href="http://mall.godpeople.com/?G=9788970400723">우리가 이방인에게로 향하노라</a>&#8221; 도움을 많이 받았습니다.</p>
<p>바울의 비시디아 안디옥 설교를 곰곰이 풀어가며 읽어보면 거기에는 무엇보다 <strong>하나님의 대권</strong>이 면면이 나타나고 있습니다. 거의 대부분의 문장 주어가 &#8216;하나님&#8217;입니다. &#8216;하나님께서 유대인들을 건져내셨다&#8230; 하나님께서 다윗을 세우시고 그와 언약을 맺으셨다&#8230; 하나님께서 그 언약대로 예수를 보내셨다&#8230; 하나님께서 그를 살리셨다&#8230;&#8217;</p>
<p>즉, 바울의 사상에는 철두철미하게 <strong>통치하시는 하나님</strong>이 나타나 있습니다. 다른 말로 하면 <strong>하나님의 정부</strong> 또는 <strong>하나님의 나라</strong>가 가장 중요한 역사적 현실로 바울의 역사관에 서 있습니다. 그는 기독교라는 종교 생활을 선포하려고 거기 서 있었던 것이 아닙니다. 종교라고 하는 인간 생활의 일부분의 문제를 논하는 것이 아니라 인간 존재 전체와 관련된 문제를 이야기를 하고 있습니다. 그렇기 때문에 안디옥 사람들은 &#8220;다음 안식일에도 이 말씀을 하라&#8221;고 청했습니다 &#8212; 바울이 제시하는 논제가 우리 존재의 목적과 관련된 것임을 보았던 것입니다.</p>
<p>이처럼 바울은 하나님의 나라에 대해서 이야기를 하려 했기 때문에 그의 설교의 시작 또한 <strong>하나님의 백성</strong>을 인도하신 이야기부터 시작하였습니다. 그러면서 그 백성들이 어떻게 하나님께 반역하였던가, 그리고 거기에 대해 <strong>하나님의 엄위</strong>는 어떻게 나타났는가를 사울 왕의 사건을 대표적으로 들어서 이야기 했습니다.</p>
<p>하지만 바울이 하나님의 엄위를 이야기 한 것은 최종적으로 하나님의 대권의 면모 곧, 그의 <strong>그의 구속의 은혜</strong>가 어떻게 조화롭게 그 통치 가운데서 나타나는가를 말하기 위함이었습니다 &#8212; 이스라엘의 소행을 하나님께서 어떻게 참으사 그들에게 사사를 주시고 가나안 땅을 기업으로 주셨던가; 그들이 하나님을 잊고 왕을 찾았고 세우신 사울이 하나님께 불순종 했지만 그 가운데서 어떻게 하나님은 구주를 보내실 약속을 하셨던가; 약속대로 보내신 메시아 곧 예수를 사람들이 정죄하여 죽였으나 어떻게 하나님은 그의 죽음을 통해 죄를 속하셨던가; 또한 예수를 다시 살리시사 그를 힘입어 죄 사함을 얻는가를 이야기했습니다. 이에 대해 김홍전 박사는 다음과 같이 표현했습니다:</p>
<blockquote><p>하나님의 거룩한 엄위와 하나님의 사랑의 은혜는 언제든지 조화되어서 움직인다는 것입니다. 사상상으로 볼 때 하나님의 거룩하신 통치의 대권에 나타나는 공의와 하나님의 은혜에 나타나는 사랑이 하나의 조화 있는 것으로 나타나서 거룩한 나라를 땅 위에 건설하시고 그 위에서 속죄의 은혜와 통치하시는 그 거룩하신 역사(役事)가 동시에 움직이는 것을 이야기하는 것입니다. (김홍전, &#8220;우리가 이방인에게로 향하노라&#8221;, 제 5강, p.166)</p></blockquote>
<p>이러한 <strong>하나님의 통치와 은혜가 결국 예수 그리스도에게서 정점을 이루고 그를 통해 구현 된다</strong>는 것이 사도 바울의 중요한 메세지였습니다.</p>
<p>그랬을 때 우리의 정당한 반응에 대해서는 &#8220;<strong>하나님의 은혜 가운데 있으라</strong>&#8220;는 것이 바울의 결론이었습니다. 이와 관련해서 김홍전 박사는 다음과 같이 말했습니다:</p>
<blockquote><p>하나님의 편에 확실히 서 있다는 확신이 있어야 하고, 그와 동시에 교만이나 신앙의 자만 가운데 빠져서는 안됩니다. 좀 더 고행을 하고 좀 더 자기를 단속한 사람들은 흔히 &#8216;하나님이야 말로 내 편이다&#8217; 하는 이상한 교(敎) 가운데 빠져 들어가는 것입니다. 그런 까닭에 &#8216;내가 어떻게든지 하나님을 꼭 붙들고 있다&#8217; 하는 태도를 버려야 합니다. &#8216;하나님이 나를 늘 붙들고 계신 그 품안에 있는가&#8217; 하는 것이 중요합니다. <strong>내가 하나님을 붙들고 있는 것이 아니라 하나님이 나를 붙들고 계신 그 품안에 있는가 하는 것입니다.</strong> 내가 스스로 걸어가고 내가 붙들려고 하는 것이 아닙니다. 하나님과 유리(遊離)된 채로 내가 하나님을 붙들려고 하는 것은 할 수 없는 일이고 해서는 안 되는 일입니다. &#8216;내가 어떻게든지 하나님 앞에 잘 믿는 사람이 되겠다&#8217; 하는 것이 아닙니다. 하나님께서 나를 늘 하나님의 자식답게 나타내시는 위치 가운데 떠나지 않고 있어야 합니다. 경건하고 거룩한 생활 태도에서 벗어나지 않아야 합니다. 그러나 경건하고 거룩한 것을 자부심(pride)으로 알고 있을 때는 벌써 타락하는 것입니다. 그것을 대단하게 여기고 스스로 &#8216;바로 이것이다. 이것이 아니면 안 된다&#8217; 하고 다른 사람을 정죄할 때는 타락하는 것입니다. (김홍전, &#8220;우리가 이방인에게로 향하노라&#8221;, 제 7강, p.224)</p></blockquote>
<p>며칠 전에 제가 <a href="http://pneumati.org/calvin-on-romans-칼빈과-함께-하는-로마서/">칼빈의 주석과 함께 로마서를 공부</a>하고 있다고 적었습니다. 이 바울의 비시디아 안디옥 설교를 공부하고 로마서를 다시 보니, 과연 위에서 언급한 사도 바울의 사상과 신학과 역사관이 로마서에 절절이 묻어나고 있었고 또 심오하게 논술되어 있음을 알아 볼 수 있었습니다.</p>
<p>이러한 사도 바울의 메세지에 대해 누가는 그것이 &#8220;하나님의 말씀&#8221;이라고 표현하였습니다. 하나님의 말씀과 그 도리는 쳬계적이고 또 논리적으로도 우수하다는 것을 생각할 때, 바울이 전한 메세지는 참으로 기초적인 것이고 우리의 사상, 신학, 역사관 등 모든 것을 바라보는 시각의 기본으로서 자리 잡고 있어야 할 그것이라 생각합니다. 이러한 면모에 대해 김홍전 박사는 그의 사도행전 강해에서 훌륭히 서술하고 있고, 그 중에서도 &#8220;우리가 이방인에게로 향하노라&#8221; 제 5, 6, 7 강은 누구에게든지 꼭 권해드리고 싶습니다.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h6>(This is a recollection of thoughts after reading &#8220;<a href="http://mall.godpeople.com/mall/?G=03210023-7">How Christ Walked on Earth</a>&#8221; by <a href="http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EA%B9%80%ED%99%8D%EC%A0%84" target="_blank">Hong-Chun Kim</a>.)</h6>
<p align="justify">Here&#8217;s a well-known passage of a dialogue that went between Jesus and his disciples regarding forgiveness:</p>
<blockquote><p>Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven.” (Matthew 18:21,22; ESV)</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify">Jesus&#8217; words gives us the impression that <strong>we have no choice but to forgive</strong>.</p>
<p align="justify">Now, as it is for other aspects of Kingdom of God, forgiveness primarily takes place in the heart of one person&#8212;its outward appearance is not the ultimate measure of its genuineness. For instance, suppose your brother has a gambling problem and keep borrows your money to spend it in gambling. If you say &#8220;I forgive him&#8221; but inwardly hate him, you are not forgiving him. Or, even though you don&#8217;t hate him, if you don&#8217;t take actions to help him get out of the addiction, then you are not forgiving him out of love but jut giving up on him.</p>
<p align="justify">There is still another issue with forgiveness; that is, the <em>ability</em> to forgive; forgiveness only makes sense if you have the option to do otherwise, say, avenge, punish, <em>etc</em>. What if you don&#8217;t have those other options? Suppose someone beyond your power stole your property and you cannot do anything about it. So you decide to let go and forget about it. Can you say that you actively forgave the thief?</p>
<p align="justify">In fact, this issue does not vanish even if you do have other options, in the case where the thief is not that powerful and you can make him pay&#8212;because if you decide to make him pay, you should be able to evaluate his debt fairly and exactly. If you avenge on him more than he deserves, or for that matter less than he deserves, then you have executed injustice and have committed sin. &#8220;You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin&#8221; (Leviticus 19:36; ESV).</p>
<p align="justify">It is clear there is a fundamental lack of ability on us to perform just judgments. As the bible declares, &#8220;Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.&#8221; (Ecclesiastes 3:16).</p>
<p align="justify">It is only the Holy One who can perform just judgment. No wonder we are required to &#8220;never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, &#8216;Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.&#8217; &#8221; (Romans 12:19)</p>
<p align="justify">Indeed, when Stephen was being stoned, he prayed “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” Of course, the men who were stoning Stephen were sinning not only against Stephen but ultimately to God. Stephen here is humbly asking to pardon the evil they are doing to Stephen; not every single sin they committed to God; Stephen would have known well that he has no right to tell God what to do for the sins committed to God.</p>
<p align="justify">Going back to Peter&#8217;s question&#8212;&#8221;how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him?&#8221;&#8212;it seems that Peter is assuming that by forgiving his brother he is carrying out a virtue or merit. However, we know that we have no other choice but to forgive; by doing so we are not generating any virtue; it&#8217;s just a natural response to the fact that we have total inability to create justice and that God is the only dependable judge. Yes, we have an upright and just judge and He will not over pass any injustice that takes place in this world. The day comes when &#8220;each of us will give an account of himself to God.&#8221; (Romans 14:12)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">At home bible study we are tracing and studying the life of Jesus, with the aid of the book &#8220;<a href="http://mall.godpeople.com/mall/?G=9788970400174" target="_blank">How Christ Walked on Earth</a>&#8221; by <a href="http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EA%B9%80%ED%99%8D%EC%A0%84" target="_blank">Hong-Chun Kim</a> (in Korean).</p>
<p align="justify">Recently we studied the miracle of Jesus walking on water (John 6:16&#8211;21). I was well aware of the story, but this time a detail that I didn&#8217;t notice before came to my attention (pointed out by Rev. Kim, the author of the above mentioned book):<span id="more-31"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and <strong>immediately</strong> the boat was at the land to which they were going. &#8212; John 6:21 (ESV, emphasis mine)</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify">So, astonished by the scene they just saw, the diciples couldn&#8217;t even notice the boat moving and they arrived at the shore. This is indeed another miracle that was present there.</p>
<p align="justify">I think apostle John was very sensitive, recording details that shows important facts about Christ. Another detail that I never noticed before, but quite recently realized that it was there (again pointed out by Rev. Kim), is the miracle that was present at the night when Jesus was arrested:</p>
<blockquote><p>Then Jesus, knowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said to them, “Whom do you seek?” They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. When Jesus said to them, “I am he,” <strong>they drew back and fell to the ground</strong>. &#8212; John 18:4&#8211;6 (ESV, emphasis mine)</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify">(By the way, the Greek text writes &#8220;I am&#8221; for Jesus&#8217; answer, without &#8216;he&#8217; at the end.) The soldiers were in fear. When Jesus said &#8220;I am&#8221; their legs could not sustain them. The divinity of Christ was present, and the soldiers shook in front of it. But as they slowly realized that Jesus would not resist, quiet &#8220;like a sheep before its shearers,&#8221; the soldiers became violent.</p>
<p align="justify">The miracles above are just a part of the evidence that Jesus is the one who Moses prophesized about:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him <strong>you shall listen</strong>&#8221; &#8212; Deuteronomy 18:15 (ESV, emphasis mine)</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify">Indeed, God confirmed this:</p>
<blockquote><p>And a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son; <strong>listen to him</strong>.” &#8212; Mark 9:7 (ESV, emphasis mine)</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify">The Father has made His beloved Son the king of all creation; What God has established, no one can undo; so kiss the Son!</p>
<blockquote><p>Why do the nations rage<br />
and the peoples plot in vain?<br />
The kings of the earth set themselves,<br />
and the rulers take counsel together,<br />
against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying,<br />
“Let us burst their bonds apart<br />
and cast away their cords from us.”</p>
<p>He who sits in the heavens laughs;<br />
the Lord holds them in derision.<br />
Then he will speak to them in his wrath,<br />
and terrify them in his fury, saying,<br />
“As for me, I have set my King<br />
on Zion, my holy hill.”</p>
<p>I will tell of the decree:<br />
The Lord said to me, “You are my Son;<br />
today I have begotten you.<br />
Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,<br />
and the ends of the earth your possession.<br />
You shall break them with a rod of iron<br />
and dash them in pieces like a potter&#8217;s vessel.”</p>
<p>Now therefore, O kings, be wise;<br />
be warned, O rulers of the earth.<br />
Serve the Lord with fear,<br />
and rejoice with trembling.<br />
Kiss the Son,<br />
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,<br />
for his wrath is quickly kindled.<br />
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.</p>
<p>&#8212; Psalm 2 (ESV)</p></blockquote>
