Abner Chou a faculty member of Master Seminary said, 
“Happiness is an emotion. Happiness in inherently superficial or temporal and circumstantial.  But joy is a perspective; Joy is deep, because it’s an evaluation of what God is doing on the inside (of someone). Joy is based upon truth, and God’s providence at work in your life, so it endures. . . it does not change.”

James 1:2–3
2 Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith brings about perseverance.

3 “You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.

2) The Command: Abide in the Vine (Christ)
(John 15:4-5)

3). The consequence of not abiding in Christ: Separation and death (John 15:6)

15 “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 “You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? 17 “Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 “A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 “So then, you will know them by their fruits. Matthew 7:15-20

24 Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. 
25 Now everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible. 
26 Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating the air; 
27 but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified. 1 Corinthians 9:24–27

Revelation 21:8: “But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

21 And when eight days were fulfilled so that they could circumcise Him, His name was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb. 
22 And when the days for their cleansing according to the Law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought Him up to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord

1) Obedience to the words of God (Luke 2:21-24) 
23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, “EVERY firstborn MALE THAT OPENS THE WOMB SHALL BE CALLED HOLY TO THE LORD”), 
24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what was said in the Law of the Lord, “A PAIR OF TURTLEDOVES OR TWO YOUNG PIGEONS.”

2) Proclaiming Jesus is the Messiah (Luke 2:25-26)
25 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the comfort of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 
26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.

3) Jesus is the true Light that saves (Luke 2:27-32)

“God promised to send a Redeemer (Gen. 3:15) 
and “when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law” (Gal. 4:4). 
The Old Testament said that the Messiah would be a descendant of Abraham (Gen. 22:18) and David (2 Sam. 7:12–13; Ps. 89:3–4; Jer. 23:5), and Jesus was (Acts 3:25; Gal. 3:16; Acts 13:22–23; Rom. 1:3). 
The Old Testament predicted that the Messiah would be born of a virgin (Isa. 7:14), and Jesus was (Matt. 1:22–23).

According to Micah 5:2, the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem, and Jesus was (Matt. 2:1). 
Isaiah (40:3) and Malachi (3:1) predicted that Messiah would be preceded by a forerunner, and John the Baptist fulfilled that role for Jesus Christ (Matt. 3:1–3; Luke 1:17). 
Jesus was the prophet like Moses (Deut. 18:15–18; cf. Acts 3:20–22); the “priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek” (Ps. 110:4; cf. Heb. 5:5–6);

The suffering Servant who bore the sins of His people (Isa. 53:4–6; cf. 1 Peter 2:24); 
the ruler of the nations (Ps. 2:6–9; Isa. 9:6; cf. Rev. 19:15–16); 
and the one exalted to the Father’s right hand (Ps. 110:1; cf. Acts 2:32–36; Heb. 1:3; 10:10–12). Those are but a few of the numerous Old Testament prophecies the Lord Jesus fulfilled.” MacArthur, J. F., Jr. (2009). Luke 1–5 (p. 175). Moody Publishers.

“Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon” (cf. Mic. 7:18–19). MacArthur, J. F., Jr. (2009). Luke 1–5 (p. 177). Moody Publishers.

1) True beleivers will seek to worship Christ the King (Matthew 2:1-3)
1 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, 
2 “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.” 
3 And when Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

2) False believers do not worship the true King (Matthew 2:4-8)

Question 4

15 DEC 2024: Christmas is a Festival of the Birth of Christ, The Son of God / Matthew 1:18-25

Accepted Answer

The Gospel narrative of the coming of Christ shows that Christmas is a festival of the Birth of the Saviour Jesus Christ. The biblical teachings of Christmas celebration are found in the four gospels with its key witnesses and their testimonies. Appearances of personalities and contributors why Christmas is biblical for Christianity. Several personalities are presented in our passage today: The person of the Holy Spirit, the angel of the Lord, the prophecies of Isaiah, and the life and faith of Joseph and Mary.

1) The Divine Conception of Mary by the Holy Spirit (Matthew 1:18-19)
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit. 
19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly.

2)The appearance and message of the angel of the Lord (Matthew 1:20-21)
20 But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the One who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 
21 “And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”

3) The fulfilment of Isaiah’s prophecy (Matthew 1:22-23)
22 Now all this took place in order that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying, 
23 “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which translated means, “GOD WITH US.”

4) The righteousness and obedience of Joseph (Matthew 1:24-25)
24 And Joseph got up from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, 
25 but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.

“A skeptic who denied the virgin birth once asked a Christian, “If I told you that child over there was born without a human father, would you believe me?” The believer replied, “Yes, if he lived as Jesus lived.” The greatest outward evidence of Jesus’ supernatural birth and deity is His life.” MacArthur, J. F., Jr. (1985). Matthew (Vol. 1, p. 22). Moody Press.

“The virgin birth of Christ is an unmistakable reminder that salvation can never come through human effort, but must be the work of God himself.” Wayne Grudem

Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you all so long and have you not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 “Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me?

Accepted Answer

JOHN 10:11-13
11 “I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. 12 “He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees—and the wolf snatches and scatters them. 13 because he is a hired hand and is not concerned about the sheep.

JOHN 10:14-16
14 “I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me, 
15 even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

I AM THE GATE / JOHN 10:1-10

1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber.  2 “But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep.  3 “To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.  4 “When he brings all his own out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.  5 “A stranger they will never follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”  6 This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them.   7 So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.   8 “All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.   9 “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.   10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

Question 9

10 NOV 2024: I Am The Light of the World / John 8:12-19

Accepted Answer

D. A. Carson summarizes the symbolism of “light” throughout the Bible: The light metaphor is steeped in Old Testament allusions.
1. The glory presence of God in the cloud (Ex. 13:21-22; Ex. 14:19-25).
2. The Israelites sing, ’The LORD is my light and my salvation’ (Ps. 27:1).
3. The word and law of God is a light to guide the path (Ps. 119:105; Pr. 6:23);
4. God’s light is the revelation (Ezk. 1:4, 13, 26-28) and salvation (Hab. 3:3-4).
5. ’Light is Yahweh in action, Ps. 44:3’.
6. The servant of the LORD was appointed as a light to the Gentiles (Is. 49:6).
7. The LORD would be the light for his people on the last days (Is. 60:19-22)
8. The promise of continual light on the last day (Zechariah 14:5b-7).
9. Isaiah 9:2, 2 The people who walk in darkness will see a great light; Those who live in a dark land, The light will shine on them.

Jesus claimed He is the Light of the world (John 8:12-13)

12 Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” 
13 So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are bearing witness about Yourself; Your witness is not true.”

How did Jesus explain the Himself as the Light of the world?
John 1:4, In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
John 1: 9, There was the true light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
John 12:35, Jesus therefore said to them, “For a little while longer the light is among you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness may not overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.
Matthew 4:16, “The people who were sitting in darkness saw a great light, And to those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death, Upon them a light dawned.”
John 3:19, “And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil.
1 John 1:5, And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

Jesus claimed He is the Light of the world (John 8:12-13)

12 Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” 
13 So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are bearing witness about Yourself; Your witness is not true.”

John 12:46, “I have come as light into the world, that everyone who believes in Me may not remain in darkness.

1 John 1:6-7 : 6 “If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; 7 but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

1st reason, Jesus knows where He came from (John 8:14-15)

14 Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
15 “You judge according to the flesh; I am not judging anyone.

2nd reason, Jesus was with God 
(John 8:16)

16 “But even if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone in it, but I and the Father who sent Me.

3rd reason: Jesus and the Father testified about the Light (John 8:17-19)

Exposit: 17 “Even in your law it has been written that the testimony of two men is true.
18 “I am He who testifies about Myself, and the Father who sent Me testifies about Me.”
19 So they were saying to Him, “Where is Your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father; if you knew Me, you would know My Father also.”

Light is a wave, moving at 186,000 miles per second. This wave can hit the retina of the eye, and when it does that, it makes things visible. It illuminates things. All colors depend on light. Where there is light, we see. Where there is no light, we do not see. It is high-speed energy that hits the eye and makes things visible. When you think about light in that way, you are seeing it or viewing it in a way that is directly applicable to the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is divine power in the spiritual realm, making things visible.

When the Light, the spiritual light of Christ, hits the living soul, which would be equal to the open and functioning eye, everything is illuminated in the spiritual realm. The Light, according to John, is none other than the life - that eternal life who is the Lord Jesus Christ - who is the Word that comes from God. He is the Word because in Him, God speaks. He is the Life because through Him God gives life. He is the Light because by Him everything in the spiritual realm is illuminated. Apart from Him, there is no Word from God. Apart from Him, there is no life. And apart from Him, there is no true understanding - all is darkness.” John MacArthur

48 “I am the bread of life. 49 “Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 “This is the bread which comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51 “I am the living bread that came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and also the bread which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh.” 52 Then the Jews began to argue with one another, saying, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?” 53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. 54 “He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55 “For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. 56 “He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 “As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. 58 “This is the bread which came down out of heaven, not as the fathers ate and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
