What are we thinking form the Kingdom of heaven? A lot of people think first at the Church, but did Jesus build the Church?
Jesus came not to establish the church. He never talked about to build the church (The Kingdom of God is not the Church).
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God… (Matthew 16:15-16). Upon this I will establish my church (upon this confession, this decision in Matthew 17-19). He wasn’t talking about the church how we know. God lived in the Old Testament, and he brought nothing news for the Jewish.
One of the German Bible sais not church but meeting (“on this rock I will build my meeting”). It shows me a very different view from the church.
Jesus came and establish the Kingdom very different, as the Jews thought, they taught physically (Roman Empire getting destroyed, restore the temple…) but God fulfilled it in a way they didn’t expect it, they thought the Kingdom of God will come (like before the they had earthly kings), with force.
Jesus said if my kingdom come everything else has to go. So God wants to be the important thing and not the only the result, (ex. Christianity is a part of Switzerland, that doesn’t work, that means he is only a result).
God’s Kingdom is spiritually.
Matt 4.17: the very first thing that Jesus said: Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand (or is here). Truly repentant is not only to say sorry. It’s really to say Stop doing my way and say I start do you way.
Jesus not he is your personal saver (belongs to me) what we often think, he is the king above all things, but we think a lot this is my personal money, personal stuff and I can use I want. But is this really or things, why we got this? Do we think we are better than the poor form the 3 world county…? He is THE KING and he gave us all this wealth, it belongs to him and he want that we use this for his kingdom.
What does Jesus mean with evangelize? How did it Jesus? He did it with healing the sick, brought food to the hungry; he looked for the in Global need and got engage.
Are we engaged? Or is for us enough when we only to believe? Do we think we are saved with only to belief or do we get engaged with the world? We get engaged with every paper we pick from the floor, every good word we say to a depressed…, if we looked for the need from there we live and try to do anything.
What must I do to come to heave?
Love God and love your neighbor! That is not passive, that means we got a do something for our neighbor. Because we love anyone we are happy to make him Glad. (Luke 3:10) and everyone is our neighbor also people in the poor countries. What must we do?
What is the main massage in the Church? Is it how to go to heaven? Focused and the afterlife? We should be focused about Jesus, but we have forgotten the message from God. Why didn’t he talk a lot form the afterlife? Because he was focused on this earth and not on our salvation! For him is more important to build the kingdom here on the earth. Follower of message, act like Jesus.
The Churches is moving away from the original message and get more and more focused on it what is good for me. Stop focused on yourself it is all about me! We ask a lot in our prayer God what’s your plan for me (self focused), but God ask what’s your (my) will for my your Kingdom. What will you do for me?
How we express our faith? How much money, power, recourse is investigated in our church. Our church should be involved in public work so much money stay in the church, what are we doing with this money? 2% of the money from the church of America goes out in a other country, but what are we doing with the money? Do we build Temples for God…? Is God glad at a building? He gave us the commandant love God and love people, should we not infest this money to help others?
God’s kingdom is new, we can’t it apply with our kingdom! It going challenge to the core (how we watch the world, how we think, how we act…)
Sometimes we think we have the ticked to heaven, whatever…I live my life, I sit back. This ticked is not so sure when we think like this.
How much attention we pay to Jesus, he is the significant person in the bible but why we pay so less attention? Because it will challenge us!
Sometime we think evangelism is into the little box of church; but Jesus did it in the world he had no Church. Or sometime we think the bible is the rulebook of live, manual for live…when the bible is this, it it’s rubbish.
The bible is not what we should think, it is how we should think. We like to say this and this is in the bible and this and this is wrong, so we can judge people about this. But this is not the meaning from the bible, God gave us the bible to study and think about what is in and not only this is in the bible and this not.
How we would live differently if we would die tomorrow? Or we had all recourse in the world, what would be our goal in 20 years? Let’s get started…we have God (all the recourse). But we search our easy live, comfortable…
James 1+2 engage with God. If you do make works you have no faith. Why we ask what do you believe? The people should see what we believe…
People are not listen what we say… They listen what they see in us.
We should live with the hope we can see jutes, that we can make a different, he came to all the creation, the whole creation wart for resurrection.
Eph.2 8-10: We are saved for good work.
Luke 2:7… if you not produce fruit you will be cut down (sharing, food, justice).
This makes people think to say maybe this is the “messiah”, change your live to engage. We are looking for all the spiritual stuff. But he was very practical (bring food to the poor, help each other)

Relationship
Psalm 39 7-12. We have always a relationship with God, no matter how lonely we are. We are made for relationship with God and other people . Marriage is only one form from relationship.
And God said; Let us make man in our image, after our likeness… (Gen. 1:26), For me mean this not that we look like God, I think God maid our personality like him. I think God want to talk with him like we want to talk to other persons. He have the desire to have a intimacy relationship with us like we want a good relationship with a good friend.
We are invited in a perfect relationship with God, “and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.” John 14.7. We know God trough the death of Christ and trough the Holy Spirit. If we know God we can also have a relationship with him.
Jeremiah called God Father and Friend of his youth Jeremiah 3:4
Relationship with others
Genesis 2:18; 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
God created Perfect relationship in the Garden of Eden, there was no sin, and they were naked and not ashamed.
Everyone needs friends. It but what kind of friendships we have is very important, because Friends will change us.
Who are you as a: (Friend, Boyfriend man/woman-friend)?
I’m a Christian. Look who Christ sees you! Because they will see you from a view you want to be. It’s cool to have a lot of non-Christian friend but they will give you’re a non-Christian view-
Bad company corrupts good character, 1: Cor. 15.33 describe it with other words.
You Are who You Meet (with).
If you want to get transformed you need people around you. You are complete in Christ and not if we have a wife. We need each other to grow!
Each people need a S.W.A.T. Team (very close friend). You need people you can go deep with. Proverbs 18:24
Step of Relationship
You should to go through every step for a healthy and a good sexual Intimacy. Do not have expectation for the next level before you are the right level because it is so much easier to hurt anyone.
It’s important that you take this step because there is a lot of damage.
Romance and Marriage
Foundation
The desires to glorify God
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Prov. 18:22
Marriage is one of the most important decision.
It’s a Covenant!
A Covenant is Mutual understanding between 2 parties becoming one fortune, prosperity, dept and responsibility
It was legalese being and sealed with the shedding of blood and oath
To the time of the Old Testament was a covenant very serious stuff. Who had a problem with the one had also a problem with the other, my camel were his camel.
Connect your taught, what’s the Goal of your live and what’s the way. What I want to do with my live? And is there a way to go? E.g. would I marry a non-Christian girl? What have we together…No because I want to follow God and do his will, she cold have not good influents

The living Word
If we look some different from Christianity we can find two typ es of different Christianity. There is the Bible lead groub and the “Holy Spirit “ leaded typ. A extreme example is: the Bible leaded search the answer always in the scripture and do not listen to the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit leaded will only listen to the Holy Spirit. I don’t know if you find this extreme example but I could imagine that you find the Bible leaded typ. I’m sure you need the Bible and the Holy Spirit. Because the bible is God’s word for us, there he tell us how he wants us to live. But we need also the Holly Spirit to have a personally relationship with God.
Why should we study the bible, it is a lot easier only to read and do what is written?
• Get to know how God really is and how he does things.
• Who the enemy is an how he does things
• The conquests of sin
• Who we are in Christ
• The promises of reconciles of God
And God wants not that we study because we have to… We should do it out of love to him, like in a relationship, we want to get to know him and not we have to know him.
You can take to three steps to study:
1. Observation
2. Interpretation
3. Application
Observation is looking was the text means, looking who has the text written, what about is the text, what is the background, culture, emotion…
Important is also that you have the context form that what you study. Then you can be like a detective looking for everything what the verse/passage/book says. The background is a very important thing (woman at well, she was sinner, Samarian an was one of the badest woman of the world in the eyes of the Pharisee). From this perspective it looks very different as we would say she was a good woman.
Interpretation looks like what mean the text to me, it is written to the original reader (all the letters). But it is written for us, we can use the bible. Interpretation means also to understand how the people taught, the writers viewpoint, what they did or not did What this meant in her couture, political, social live. Observation is a most to ask why.
Application is the Goal from the biblestudy. It’s how I can apply the stuff you study in my live and can understand God more an more James 7: 22-25
Sometimes it’s very good to have a study bible or commentaries, this are helps for Observation and Interpretation, but this is also made be man’s and sometimes they are different.
Question:
What are the tree steps of Bible study?
1. Observation
2. Interpretation
3. Application
How wll you study the bible differently now?
Looking more at couture, and the situation of the people, search the tressure and not only reading the bible
Why is the background of a book important for studying?
Because it can make the whole story differently if you see it form another perspective.

Prayer Week
I was very excited for this week because every stuff sad this is one of the best week. And pray is a very strong weapon so I looked forward to this week. If we pray, God wants that we pray honestly and that we truly say what we mean Matthew 6.6 sais:
But thou, when thou pray, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
This means we should pray truly and not pray like the Pharisee… And God wants that we pray with all our heart. God wants that we do have a desire to pray, and not only because we have to.
The Holy Spirit give us the us the ability to have a deep relationship. Romans:8.26; 1.Cor 12.11.
Roman 15.30 shows us the hart of God’s desire for us.
Roman 15.30 the hard of God, the desire for us.
1. Surrender.
2. Honest and humility
3. Obedient
• Surrender: we thing there is a lost on or Part. If I trust him I can surrender. Surrender is a opportunity. The things we giving away to have an opportunity to live a real live. A live full with him. Give I God everything? Surrender to give up this right today… Sometimes we start at the very worng point, God is bigger then our being. Do you have the hard to give up and trust God he had anything Bigger. Why should I do this? Want God take anything take away form me? I’m sure not! He will show us more.
Palm 16.11: Sow me you pat of live
• Honest and humility: Sometime we not willing to get broken or we are not willing to do what God wants. Be honest, say I want lie down help me!!! Be real and honest to one another church Christian friends… Sometime we hand the feeling no one is watching. Bi honest to each other. If you not honest with God you don’t get t a real good relationship with God. ( Give up you pride. The first step ho humability is do God on the first place. God loved fist us.
• Obedient: Intermethy leads to be obeisant and obedient drives us to Inermethy. Be obedient in the small things it hand not make sin to us but be obedient. It can be one of the moat enjoyable experiences. Christianity is not easy but he wants an awesome live for us. Do we really love God? If we not in love with God we can’t serve him. Spent time with God and we get to know him be experience. Let it go in the power of God.
Who we are in Christ?
Matt 10.38-41 everything of the situation can say you can’t stay here. But Marry don’t care. She didn’t look what the other taught. She saw sometings in his eyes. A little girl come in the house and sat down on the feet of jesus. She stay long anough till Jesus said she can stay. What is more important that we surve God or that we go to God and love him?

Fear of the Lord
Fear of the Lord sounds probably a little bit strange if you hear this word. A most in our west culture. We hear so much from God’s grace, his love … But as I started to read the Old Testament I saw really how powerful God punish his people because he is holly and he will holly people. But trough his grace he saves his people always.
What is fear of the Lord exactly?
I personaly like the image form the double edged sword.
God gave us the free will that means we can do what we want. (Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial 1.Corintians 6:12). But we have the responsibility for what we are doing. For example: David, a man of God’s heart slept with the Bathsheba and killed his husband, but after Nathan said that he is a murder he repented and prayed for forgiveness and God forgiven him but the son from Bathsheba have to die. We have the responsibility for what we do. Because of that it’s very important that we know how Jesus looks.
There are two different views. You can say it’s all good, Jesus paid for my sin and I can continue my sin because of Jesus. But he will not have favor with you because you don’t try to do what he had commanded. The other way is you can repent your sin, you can pray for forgiveness and he will continue to bless you because you have repent and you try to do his will. It’s your choose if you get blessing or course. We can choose what you want whit your fee will James 2.12-13.
The true love is the love “Agape”. This is Greek and means a love who is not based on feeling or circumstance (kindness, faithfulness to conferment. It is a willing love, a love that I have to choose also if I don’t feel like. This I think is very important because we have so a lot of different feelings, sometimes good day and bad times… so we have to focus at anything. This is not only helpful with the love of God also with the love of friends, relationship, marriage …
In the Greek vocabulary you have tow different words for fear
• Pobes: Really fear, guard fear (used in the positive Way)
• Delias Negative, timidity cowardice ( chicken)
God wants us that we have the Pobes, the useful way in the fear of him. God don’t want us make afraid from him, he will lead us, he will respect form us that we do what he says (the same the parents says at the child do not hold you hand at this hot plate because you can burn you it’s the same with God.
Our conscience is or alarm system God speak a lot of what we not should do. What is not in Gods will but our conscience can’t recognize if we a few times ignore it. For excampel if we do anything agnist or conscience we fell bad. The second time it fells less band…
Saul was so focused on the people he had fear of man, he want to be the best, strongest. 1. Sam 15.13 describes how Saul acted against the Lords commandant. He took the best animal back after the battle but God said him he has to kill all animals. So he came into this circle. The biggest enemies were the people they loved him and want to help him but his anger got stronger and stronger against Samuel the prophet he want to help him and say him God will and wept for Saul’s deeds. David, who fought for him and wan a lot of battles and he served him. Also Jonathan his own son.

He took the best animal back after the battle but God said him he has to kill all animals. So he came into this circle. The biggest enemies were the people they loved him and want to help him but his anger got stronger and stronger against Samuel the prophet he want to help him and say him God will and wept for Saul’s deeds. David, who fought for him and wan a lot of battles and he served him. Also Jonathan his own son.

Hearing God Voice
Evangelism
I was very excited for this week because it’s a order for everyone to go into the world and preach the Gospel. What does this word evangelism mean?
Evangelism ->to preach or bring the good news (Gospel) whit focus on the content.
In the New Testament it’s always refer to the death, burrier, resurrection and witnesses about Jesus Christ, including the implication for the mankind’s relationship with God.
Why should we Go an preach the Gospel? Why is it a commandant? It’s because God loves every person in the world, he loves not one person more or less. No matter if he is good or bad. And he wane live with every person a eternal live in heaven. But God is holly, God hates the sin and a sinful man can not enter in the heaven an this is the reason for this commandants.
There is a spiritual gift for evangelism but everyone is called to preach the Gospel. And sometime I think why I, I have too much fear of man, I can’t do this but the “great” apostle Paul had this fear too.1.Corinthians 2.1-4 sais: I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling. This gives me motivation to see I’m not the only one who have this fears, no there is are apostles they gave their live for Jesus but they had also fears.
This verses say also that he didn’t came with eloquence or superior wisdom, he want only tell about Jesus Christ. For me is this also a encouragement because you don’t have to be supper wise, you can tell the good news after you became a Christian. No matter if you know a lot about Jesus or not.
We don’t need this knowledge because God will speak through us. 2.Korinter 7 sais: Everyone will see that the awesome strength comes from God and not from us, this means that God will show his power trough us, that he will speak trough us and that he will help us. This is a awesome promises so if we trust God then he will help us.
The first step we have to do if we go out, is to make a step in faith, this is one of the hardest things. It’s like you make a step in the darkness and we can’t see the ground. We have to trust god that he will speak through us, he will help you. It’s easier as you think. Do it relaxt, do it not under pressure because this is a bad feeling to say I have to but don’t say I can’t do it. God give us so many opportunities, he gave us friends they don’t know God, hobbies whit non Christian people… We have a crazy God and with him we can do crazy thing. Be Creative, and pray about it, were and how you can be a evangelist, our God is the creator form all the creativity. We can everywhere preach the Gospel.
Share your testimony if you make evangelistic, because it’s a really powerful thing (Ref 12.11). Because this personally experience you had and no one can say this didn’t happen or anything like this. This is what you share with the guys they are don’t believe in God and it’s very personally.
Do not be afraid if anyone not wants to hear god or refuse it, you don’t know what’s happening whit this person because most the time they don’t become a Christian if you preach the Gospel once, it’s a process like this graphic.
You can also try to explain the Evidence of God.
I. Creation is the Glory of God. (Rom 1.20) is the whole eart create be chance?
Everything can survive. Fruit to eat, Beard, People, is this made be chance?
II. Nature of mankind. Ecc 3.11. ¾ of man know there is more (religion). We can’t explain the creation (DNA) We are live eternal.
III. The Bible code. It’s a messing Book. There were 66 different writers and the message always the same. Prophesy about Jesus before he came.
IV. Jesus. He was a mean of miracule Matt 11. 1-7 John 14. 9-11. Why would 9 from the 12 apostle give their live? For noting of course not.
V. Signs, Wonders and Miracle. Some people have dream and visions about Jesus and come so to Jesus.
For me are this things also really important before you go to do anything and also while you do it remember at this things:
• Beeing led of the spirit
• Evangelism-> God will give you his Spirit, because you will make a step in fate
• Spiritual Warfare-> the enemy will come to destroy, to bring you to fall (Nehemiah 6.1-9 & 16)
• Pray for: Wisdom, Strength, Spiritual words, Holy Spirit, Blessing, Unity, Gods working in persons
