Content: What does God say at the end of all of His creating? It is very good. God was clearly concerned about, cared for, and appreciated all that He had made.

Cosmos Yes – this is about ALL that exists We are to be a priest to participate with our great God in the process of the restoration of all things in our sinful and broken world. At creation we were given the mandate to care for an unbroken world. When sin entered the world because of our disobedience, we lost this birthright. In a sense, with our salvation, we are again given this birthright – but now it is focused on restoration of what has been broken rather than caring for what was unbroken. Last Updated 7/07

Content: What role does the church have in this great agenda of God’s? Read Ephesians 1:22-23 (Small Groups) When you read this, listen for something that just doesn’t seem right. These verses say some very important truths, but they also present some questions. Discussion Paul says that God puts all things under the feet of Christ. He also says that the Church is the fullness of Christ. Do you have a problem with either of these statements? When you look at the church in your nation, do you see the fullness of Christ? He also says that God put everything under Christ for the church. As broken as the church is why would He do this? Last Updated 7/07

Content: Read the Ephesians 3:17b-19 What is fullness ? It is love Paul is praying that the Church would be filled with this love. But it is still difficult to see this love which is so high, so wide and so deep as being in the broken church that we observe. We may understand what Paul means by fullness but we still don’t understand how he can equate this kind of love with the Church. Fortunately, Paul, explains what he is saying in the next chapter.

Content: Read Ephesians 4:11-13 The 5-fold ministry for church leaders – they all have the same goal in their job descriptions. What is the goal of each job description? To equip people to serve Each one has the same end purpose – to equip people to serve It is only by equipping people to serve that the nature of God, His love, and His Kingdom is seen If the end result of teaching, preaching or evangelizing isn’t in service – those teaching, preaching, evangelizing, etc have not completed the goal of their responsibilities. In other words, Paul is telling us that three things happen – or a consequence of the Church that serves. First, the church moves from being divided to being unified. Unity does not come by theological agreement but by serving. Second, believers become mature. Maturity does not come through Bible knowledge, prayer and other religious activities alone. Paul tells us that Christian maturity comes as a consequence of service. Third, the Church serves, it expresses the love that is the fullness of Christ. How can the church be the fullness of Christ? It is through service. Works of service – the Church serves Adam was put in the garden to serve Jesus was a servant (Phil 2) Jesus came to serve (Matt 21) The Church is called to serve (Eph 4) When Paul equated the Church with the fullness of Christ, he was looking at the Church as it should be – a church that serves, and as a consequence expresses the love that is the fullness of Christ Illustration of church service in Columbia where leaders were being ordained. Question? Are we equally as careful to encourage the training and equipping of the people for the works of service? We will never see transformation as God intends it if only church leaders are ordained to serve. Last Updated 7/07

Read Ephesians 3:9-10 Paul – I will explain to you the administration of this “mystery of Christ” – the secret plan of God for the redemption and restoration of all things. God says, “My plan is to use the church to bring about my manifold, ultimate plan – my cosmic agenda.” What is His multi-faceted agenda, His manifold wisdom? It is to reconcile ALL things.

Content: It is through the church – His body – The human expression of God’s expansive love, that God will accomplish His cosmic purpose The Church is more important than any other group in society. If this is true, then we must work toward God’s goal by using His plan. We must equip the people to be intentionally involved in the restoration of all things. Pastors you are very, very important to this plan because you are the leaders of the institution God has ordained to carry out God’s plan. But unless you understand this plan, you will never be able to lead your people to participate in it. Illustrations 1.

Team #1 – The Church Team #2 – The Kingdom of Darkness Fans – Principalities and powers in heavenly places Both teams have brilliant coaches. We know the end score – but the church will score in this generation only as it carries out the game plan of its coach, Jesus. Will God’s end game be advanced in our generation? The church will score when she carries out God’s strategy – the strategy of service. The implications of this verse is staggering The end purpose of the Church is to equip the Church to serve – to show His love, to bring about His plan Last Updated 7/07

Por que não hoje? Reação ao Evangelho Social/ Liberalismo Methodologies: Lecture Illustrations: Identified by ** in the contents notes. Content The Social Gospel began to be popularized in the 19th century. One of its tenants or propositions is that salvation comes as good works are done. Being personally born again isn’t essential. Conservative Christians reacted against this theology but in their reaction often threw out or diminished the importance of good works. Much of evangelical mission in the last two centuries was done without a biblically balanced teaching of faith and works Last Updated 7/07

Content: Many evangelical missionaries believed that the end times were here (even though Jesus said that no one knew the time). Many also believed that the world would get worse and worse until Jesus came. As a result they didn’t have much motivation to see anything but souls saved and the saved living holy lives in an increasingly evil world and waiting for heaven. Many of the churches they planted were planted with this DNA – a DNA that had little motivation for working for the restoration of “all things.” Last Updated 7/07

With this future-only Kingdom perspective, there is little motivation to see the expression of Christ’s rule a reality in anything but the believer who is waiting to go to heaven. Last Updated 7/07

Por que não hoje? Paternalismo: Perspectiva da pobreza relativa daqueles sendo evangelizados e discipulados Ensino fraco sobre mordomia e ética Modelo Institutional de ministério não sustentável Methodologies: Lecture Illustrations: Identified by ** in the contents notes. Content: The sad history of paternalistic missions is another reason today’s church has as little impact as it does on the transformation of society. Three aspects of paternalism in the missions of the last 200 years are presented here. The people who were being served by the relatively more affluent Western missionaries were often seen as poor and unable to lift themselves out of their poverty without outside help Because the missionaries’ view of the poverty of those being evangelized and discipled, new Christians were sometimes not taught the biblical obligation of stewardship. As a result, many believers in the non West believe that they don’t have enough to give to God for the extension of His Kingdom. Many of the models for evangelism and discipleship were built from institutional bases (schools, hospitals, etc) that were not sustainable without outside resources. As a result, many non Western Christians think that the only way to bring transformation to their communities is with outside help. Last Updated 7/07

Content: Read verses 6 – 7 God tells Israel (and us) that true worship comes as we demonstrate His love. This demonstration is at two levels. Vs 6 - Correcting systemic injustice – can only be done by policy makers Believers must be in these positions of influence to advocate for these changes Vs 7 - Every believer responding to serve – the general body of Christ.

Content: In this third couplet, God lets Israel (and us) know that religious activity (honoring the Sabbath) is not wrong, but desired. But by implication of what goes before, it must come as a partner with the demonstration of His love. This chapter shows us how our healing (the transformation of our broken communities) comes. It is through true worship – a combination of the demonstration of His love to our neighbor, and what we often call prayer and praise. Last Updated 7/07

Adoração Irredutível “Exercitou o juízo e a justiça. Julgou a causa do aflito e do necessitado...Não é isto conhecer-me? Diz o Senhor.” (Jeremias 22:15-16) “Ele te declarou, ó homem, o que é bom. E o que é que o Senhor pede de ti, senão que pratiques a justiça, ames a misericórdia, e andes humildemente com o teu Deus?” (Miquéias 6:8) Methodologies: Discovery Bible Exploration Illustrations: Identified by ** in the contents notes. Content: We see the concept of irreducible worship reflected in James 1:27 – pure and perfect religion – to care for orphans and widows There are many other things that we do – that aren’t bad * Memorize Scripture * Have daily devotions Live a pure life * Other examples Yet, this is not the true worship God longs for. This true worship is stated in other words in Micah 6:8 (Read aloud together) Last Updated 7/07

Content: Do you think that Israel in Isaiah 58 was aware of its giving God unacceptable worship? Probably not, but it was sin nevertheless. When we don’t worship God with true worship, we are sinning because we are not obeying His command to love. Fortunately God provides a solution to this unintentional sin at three levels – the community, leaders, and the people. Last Updated 7/07

Emphasize the critical importance of bringing application to what is being learned. The heart of a child that is asked to obey, but does not and nothing happens – child’s heart becomes hardened to the request of the parent. What happens when you preach and the people in your church don’t apply what you are teaching? Their hearts are hardened to truth. It is so critical that we bring our church members to application of what is being learned. Last Updated 7/07
