1. CHOOSING THE FIRST FOUR APOSTLES – P.1524
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1524 – §2 During this Sabbath two of John’s leading \n disciples spent much time with Jesus. Of all John’s followers one named \n Andrew was the most profoundly impressed with Jesus; he accompanied him \n on the trip to Pella with the injured boy. On the way back to John’s rendezvous \n he asked Jesus many questions, and just before reaching their destination, \n the two paused for a short talk, during which Andrew said:<\/font><\/p>\n

"I have \n observed you ever since you came to Capernaum, and I believe you are the \n new Teacher, and though I do not understand all your teaching, I have \n fully made up my mind to follow you; I would sit at your feet and learn \n the whole truth about the new kingdom." And Jesus, with hearty assurance, \n welcomed Andrew as the first of his apostles, that group of twelve who \n were to labor with him in the work of establishing the new kingdom of \n God in the hearts of men.<\/font><\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

P.1524 – §3 Andrew was a silent observer of, and \n sincere believer in, John’s work, and he had a very able and enthusiastic \n brother, named Simon, who was one of John’s foremost disciples. It would \n not be amiss to say that Simon was one of John’s chief supporters.

P.1524 – §4 Soon after Jesus and Andrew returned \n to the camp, Andrew sought out his brother, Simon, and taking him aside, \n informed him that he had settled in his own mind that Jesus was the great \n Teacher, and that he had pledged himself as a disciple. He went on to \n say that Jesus had accepted his proffer of service and suggested that \n he (Simon) likewise go to Jesus and offer himself for fellowship in the \n service of the new kingdom. Said Simon: "Ever since this man came \n to work in Zebedee’s shop, I have believed he was sent by God, but what \n about John? Are we to forsake him? Is this the right thing to do?" <\/font><\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

Whereupon they agreed to go at once to consult John. John was saddened \n by the thought of losing two of his able advisers and most promising disciples, \n but he bravely answered their inquiries, saying: "This is but the \n beginning; presently will my work end, and we shall all become his disciples." \n Then Andrew beckoned to Jesus to draw aside while he announced that his \n brother desired to join himself to the service of the new kingdom. And \n in welcoming Simon as his second apostle, Jesus said: "Simon, your \n enthusiasm is commendable, but it is dangerous to the work of the kingdom. <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1525 – §1 The parents of the injured lad who lived \n at Pella had besought Jesus to spend the night with them, to make their \n house his home, and he had promised. Before leaving Andrew and his brother, \n Jesus said, "Early on the morrow we go into Galilee."<\/font><\/td>\n  <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

P.1525 – §2 After Jesus had returned to Pella for \n the night, and while Andrew and Simon were yet discussing the nature of \n their service in the establishment of the forthcoming kingdom, James and \n John the sons of Zebedee arrived upon the scene, having just returned \n from their long and futile searching in the hills for Jesus. When they \n heard Simon Peter tell how he and his brother, Andrew, had become the \n first accepted counselors of the new kingdom, and that they were to leave \n with their new Master on the morrow for Galilee, both James and John were \n sad. They had known Jesus for some time, and they loved him. They had \n searched for him many days in the hills, and now they returned to learn \n that others had been preferred before them. They inquired where Jesus \n had gone and made haste to find him.

P.1525 – §3 Jesus was asleep when they reached his \n abode, but they awakened him, saying: "How is it that, while we who \n have so long lived with you are searching in the hills for you, you prefer \n others before us and choose Andrew and Simon as your first associates \n in the new kingdom?" Jesus answered them, "Be calm in your hearts \n and ask yourselves, `who directed that you should search for the Son of \n Man when he was about his Father’s business?’" <\/font><\/p>\n

After they had recited \n the details of their long search in the hills, Jesus further instructed \n them: "You should learn to search for the secret of the new kingdom \n in your hearts and not in the hills. That which you sought was already \n present in your souls. You are indeed my brethren–you needed not to be \n received by me–already were you of the kingdom, and you should be of \n good cheer, making ready also to go with us tomorrow into Galilee." <\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

 <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n
John then made bold to ask, "But, Master, will James and I be associates \n with you in the new kingdom, even as Andrew and Simon?" And Jesus, \n laying a hand on the shoulder of each of them, said: "My brethren, \n you were already with me in the spirit of the kingdom, even before these \n others made request to be received. You, my brethren, have no need to \n make request for entrance into the kingdom; you have been with me in the \n kingdom from the beginning. Before men, others may take precedence over \n you, but in my heart did I also number you in the councils of the kingdom, \n even before you thought to make this request of me. And even so might \n you have been first before men had you not been absent engaged in a well-intentioned \n but self-appointed task of seeking for one who was not lost. In the coming \n kingdom, be not mindful of those things which foster your anxiety but \n rather at all times concern yourselves only with doing the will of the \n Father who is in heaven."<\/font><\/td>\n

P.1525 – §4 James and John received the rebuke in \n good grace; never more were they envious of Andrew and Simon.

2. CHOOSING PHILIP AND NATHANIEL – P.1526
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1526 – §1 Sunday morning, February 24, A.D. 26, \n Jesus took leave of John the Baptist by the river near Pella, never again \n to see him in the flesh.
\n <\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

 <\/font><\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

P.1526 – §2 That day, as Jesus and his four disciple-apostles \n departed for Galilee, there was a great tumult in the camp of John’s followers. \n The first great division was about to take place. The day before, John \n had made his positive pronouncement to Andrew and Ezra that Jesus was \n the Deliverer. Andrew decided to follow Jesus, but Ezra rejected the mild-mannered \n carpenter of Nazareth, proclaiming to his associates: "The Prophet \n Daniel declares that the Son of Man will come with the clouds of heaven, \n in power and great glory. This Galilean carpenter, this Capernaum boatbuilder, \n cannot be the Deliverer. Can such a gift of God come out of Nazareth? \n This Jesus is a relative of John, and through much kindness of heart has \n our teacher been deceived. Let us remain aloof from this false Messiah." \n When John rebuked Ezra for these utterances, he drew away with many disciples \n and hastened south. And this group continued to baptize in John’s name \n and eventually founded a sect of those who believed in John but refused \n to accept Jesus. A remnant of this group persists in Mesopotamia even \n to this day.<\/font><\/p>\n

P.1526 – §3 While this trouble was brewing among \n John’s followers, Jesus and his four disciple-apostles were well on their \n way toward Galilee. Before they crossed the Jordan, to go by way of Nain \n to Nazareth, Jesus, looking ahead and up the road, saw one Philip of Bethsaida \n with a friend coming toward them. Jesus had known Philip aforetime, and \n he was also well known to all four of the new apostles. He was on his \n way with his friend Nathaniel to visit John at Pella to learn more about \n the reported coming of the kingdom of God, and he was delighted to greet \n Jesus. Philip had been an admirer of Jesus ever since he first came to \n Capernaum. But Nathaniel, who lived at Cana of Galilee, did not know Jesus. \n Philip went forward to greet his friends while Nathaniel rested under \n the shade of a tree by the roadside.

P.1526 – §4 Peter took Philip to one side and proceeded \n to explain that they, referring to himself, Andrew, James, and John, had \n all become associates of Jesus in the new kingdom and strongly urged Philip \n to volunteer for service. Philip was in a quandary. What should he do? \n Here, without a moment’s warning–on the roadside near the Jordan–there \n had come up for immediate decision the most momentous question of a lifetime. \n By this time he was in earnest converse with Peter, Andrew, and John while \n Jesus was outlining to James the trip through Galilee and on to Capernaum. \n Finally, Andrew suggested to Philip, "Why not ask the Teacher?"

P.1526 – §5 It suddenly dawned on Philip that Jesus \n was a really great man, possibly the Messiah, and he decided to abide \n by Jesus’ decision in this matter; and he went straight to him, asking, \n "Teacher, shall I go down to John or shall I join my friends who \n follow you?" And Jesus answered, "Follow me." Philip was \n thrilled with the assurance that he had found the Deliverer.<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

P.1527 – §0 he had heard concerning John the Baptist, \n the coming kingdom, and the expected Messiah. Philip broke in upon these \n meditations, exclaiming, "I have found the Deliverer, him of whom \n Moses and the prophets wrote and whom John has proclaimed." Nathaniel, \n looking up, inquired, "Whence comes this teacher?" And Philip \n replied, "He is Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph, the carpenter, \n more recently residing at Capernaum." And then, somewhat shocked, \n Nathaniel asked, "Can any such good thing come out of Nazareth?" \n But Philip, taking him by the arm, said, "Come and see."<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

And Jesus nodded to Nathaniel, \n again saying, "Follow me."<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

P.1527 – §2 Jesus had now assembled one half of his \n future corps of intimate associates, five who had for some time known \n him and one stranger, Nathaniel. Without further delay they crossed the \n Jordan and, going by the village of Nain, reached Nazareth late that evening.

But this proceeding, together \n with the fact that they never saw him subsequently write–except upon \n the dust or in the sand–made a deep impression upon their minds.<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

P.1527 – §4 The next day Jesus sent his apostles \n on to Cana, since all of them were invited to the wedding of a prominent \n young woman of that town, while he prepared to pay a hurried visit to \n his mother at Capernaum, stopping at Magdala to see his brother Jude.

P.1527 – §5 Before leaving Nazareth, the new associates \n of Jesus told Joseph and other members of Jesus’ family about the wonderful \n events of the then recent past and gave free expression to their belief \n that Jesus was the long-expected deliverer. And these members of Jesus’ \n family talked all this over, and Joseph said: "Maybe, after all, \n Mother was right–maybe our strange brother is the coming king."

P.1527 – §6 Jude was present at Jesus’ baptism and, \n with his brother James, had become a firm believer in Jesus’ mission on \n earth. Although both James and Jude were much perplexed as to the nature \n of their brother’s mission, their mother had resurrected all her early \n hopes of Jesus as the Messiah, the son of David, and she encouraged her \n sons to have faith in their brother as the deliverer of Israel.<\/font><\/p>\n

Once more he seemed to be comparatively \n cheerful and more like himself as he was during the earlier years at Nazareth. \n For years previous to his baptism and the isolation periods just before \n and just after, he had grown increasingly serious and self-contained. \n Now he seemed quite like his old self to all of them.

She expected \n all Palestine soon to be startled and stunned by the miraculous revelation \n of her son as the supernatural king of the Jews. But to all of the many \n questions which his mother, James, Jude, and Zebedee asked, Jesus only \n smilingly replied: "It is better that I tarry here for a while; I \n must do the will of my Father who is in heaven."<\/font><\/p>\n

P.1528 – §2 On the next day, Tuesday, they all journeyed \n over to Cana for the wedding of Naomi, which was to take place on the \n following day. And in spite of Jesus’ repeated warnings that they tell \n no man about him "until the Father’s hour shall come," they \n insisted on quietly spreading the news abroad that they had found the \n Deliverer. They each confidently expected that Jesus would inaugurate \n his assumption of Messianic authority at the forthcoming wedding at Cana, \n and that he would do so with great power and sublime grandeur. They remembered \n what had been told them about the phenomena attendant upon his baptism, \n and they believed that his future course on earth would be marked by increasing \n manifestations of supernatural wonders and miraculous demonstrations. \n Accordingly, the entire countryside was preparing to gather together at \n Cana for the wedding feast of Naomi and Johab the son of Nathan.

And so they all whispered among themselves, in small groups, \n wondering what was going to happen. What would this strange person do \n next? How would he usher in the glory of the coming kingdom?

P.1528 – §4 By noon on Wednesday almost a thousand \n guests had arrived in Cana, more than four times the number bidden to \n the wedding feast. It was a Jewish custom to celebrate weddings on Wednesday, \n and the invitations had been sent abroad for the wedding one month previously. \n In the forenoon and early afternoon it appeared more like a public reception \n for Jesus than a wedding. Everybody wanted to greet this near-famous Galilean, \n and he was most cordial to all, young and old, Jew and gentile. And everybody \n rejoiced when Jesus consented to lead the preliminary wedding procession.<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

P.1528 – §5 Jesus was now thoroughly self-conscious \n regarding his human existence, his divine pre-existence, and the status \n of his combined, or fused, human and divine natures.

He said only: "If you \n love me, then be willing to tarry with me while I wait upon the will of \n my Father who is in heaven." But the eloquence of his rebuke lay \n in the expression of his face.

P.1529 – §2 This move of his mother was a great disappointment \n to the human Jesus, and he was much sobered by his reaction to her suggestive \n proposal that he permit himself to indulge in some outward demonstration \n of his divinity. That was one of the very things he had decided not to \n do when so recently isolated in the hills. For several hours Mary was \n much depressed. She said to James: "I cannot understand him; what \n can it all mean? Is there no end to his strange conduct?" James and \n Jude tried to comfort their mother, while Jesus withdrew for an hour’s \n solitude. But he returned to the gathering and was once more lighthearted \n and joyous.<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

P.1529 – §3 The wedding proceeded with a hush of \n expectancy, but the entire ceremony was finished and not a move, not a \n word, from the honored guest. Then it was whispered about that the carpenter \n and boatbuilder, announced by John as "the Deliverer," would \n show his hand during the evening festivities, perhaps at the wedding supper. \n But all expectance of such a demonstration was effectually removed from \n the minds of his six disciple-apostles when he called them together just \n before the wedding supper and, in great earnestness, said: "Think \n not that I have come to this place to work some wonder for the gratification \n of the curious or for the conviction of those who doubt. Rather are we \n here to wait upon the will of our Father who is in heaven." But when \n Mary and the others saw him in consultation with his associates, they \n were fully persuaded in their own minds that something extraordinary was \n about to happen. And they all sat down to enjoy the wedding supper and \n the evening of festive good fellowship.<\/font><\/p>\n

P.1529 – §4 The father of the bridegroom had provided \n plenty of wine for all the guests bidden to the marriage feast, but how \n was he to know that the marriage of his son was to become an event so \n closely associated with the expected manifestation of Jesus as the Messianic \n deliverer? He was delighted to have the honor of numbering the celebrated \n Galilean among his guests, but before the wedding supper was over, the \n servants brought him the disconcerting news that the wine was running \n short. By the time the formal supper had ended and the guests were strolling \n about in the garden, the mother of the bridegroom confided to Mary that \n the supply of wine was exhausted. And Mary confidently said: "Have \n no worry–I will speak to my son. He will help us." And thus did \n she presume to speak, notwithstanding the rebuke of but a few hours before.

P.1529 – §5 Throughout a period of many years, Mary \n had always turned to Jesus for help in every crisis of their home life \n at Nazareth so that it was only natural for her to think of him at this \n time. But this ambitious mother had still other motives for appealing \n to her eldest son on this occasion. As Jesus was standing alone in a corner \n of the garden, his mother approached him, saying, "My son, they have \n no wine." And Jesus answered, "My good woman, what have I to \n do with that?" Said Mary, "But I believe your hour has come; \n cannot you help us?" Jesus replied: "Again I declare that I \n have not come to do things in this wise. Why do

P.1530 – §1 Mary the mother of Jesus was crushed; \n she was stunned! As she stood there before him motionless, with the tears \n streaming down her face, the human heart of Jesus was overcome with compassion \n for the woman who had borne him in the flesh; and bending forward, he \n laid his hand tenderly upon her head, saying: "Now, now, Mother Mary, \n grieve not over my apparently hard sayings, for have I not many times \n told you that I have come only to do the will of my heavenly Father? Most \n gladly would I do what you ask of me if it were a part of the Father’s \n will–" and Jesus stopped short, he hesitated. Mary seemed to sense \n that something was happening. Leaping up, she threw her arms around Jesus’ \n neck, kissed him, and rushed off to the servants’ quarters, saying, "Whatever \n my son says, that do." But Jesus said nothing. He now realized that \n he had already said–or rather desirefully thought–too much.

P.1530 – §2 Mary was dancing with glee. She did not \n know how the wine would be produced, but she confidently believed that \n she had finally persuaded her first-born son to assert his authority, \n to dare to step forth and claim his position and exhibit his Messianic \n power. And, because of the presence and association of certain universe \n powers and personalities, of which all those present were wholly ignorant, \n she was not to be disappointed. The wine Mary desired and which Jesus, \n the God-man, humanly and sympathetically wished for, was forthcoming.<\/font><\/td>\n glee G: (\ud070 \uae30\uc068)<\/td>\n <\/tr>\n
P.1530 – §3 Near at hand stood six waterpots of stone, \n filled with water, holding about twenty gallons apiece. This water was intended \n for subsequent use in the final purification ceremonies of the wedding celebration. \n The commotion of the servants about these huge stone vessels, under the \n busy direction of his mother, attracted Jesus’ attention, and going over, \n he observed that they were drawing wine out of them by the pitcherful.

P.1530 – §4 It was gradually dawning upon Jesus \n what had happened. Of all persons present at the marriage feast of Cana, \n Jesus was the most surprised. Others had expected him to work a wonder, \n but that was just what he had purposed not to do. And then the Son of \n Man recalled the admonition of his Personalized Thought Adjuster in the \n hills. He recounted how the Adjuster had warned him about the inability \n of any power or personality to deprive him of the creator prerogative \n of independence of time. On this occasion power transformers, midwayers, \n and all other required personalities were assembled near the water and \n other necessary elements, and in the face of the expressed wish of the \n Universe Creator Sovereign, there was no escaping the instantaneous appearance \n of wine. And this occurrence was made doubly certain since the Personalized \n Adjuster had signified that the execution of the Son’s desire was in no \n way a contravention of the Father’s will.

Jesus’ \n family and all his friends in Cana were much distressed because he so \n suddenly left them, and Jude, Jesus’ youngest brother, set out in search \n of him. Jesus and his apostles went directly to the home of Zebedee at \n Bethsaida. On this journey Jesus talked over many things of importance \n to the coming kingdom with his newly chosen associates and especially \n warned them to make no mention of the turning of the water into wine. \n He also advised them to avoid the cities of Sepphoris and Tiberias in \n their future work.<\/font><\/p>\n

P.1531 – §6 After supper that evening, in this home \n of Zebedee and Salome, there was held one of the most important conferences \n of all Jesus’ earthly career. Only the six apostles were present at this \n meeting; Jude arrived as they were about to separate. These six chosen \n men had journeyed from Cana to Bethsaida with Jesus, walking, as it were, \n on air. They were alive with expectancy and thrilled with the thought \n of having been selected as close associates of the Son of Man. But when \n Jesus set out to make clear to them who he was and what was to be his \n mission on earth and how it might possibly end, they were stunned. They \n could not grasp what he was telling them. They were speechless; even Peter \n was crushed beyond expression. Only the deep-thinking Andrew dared to \n make reply to Jesus’ words of counsel. When Jesus perceived that they \n did not comprehend his message, when he saw that their ideas of the Jewish \n Messiah were so completely crystallized, he sent them to their rest while \n he walked and talked with his
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1532 – §0 brother Jude. And before Jude took leave \n of Jesus, he said with much feeling: "My father-brother, I never \n have understood you. I do not know of a certainty whether you are what \n my mother has taught us, and I do not fully comprehend the coming kingdom, \n but I do know you are a mighty man of God. I heard the voice at the Jordan, \n and I am a believer in you, no matter who you are." And when he had \n spoken, he departed, going to his own home at Magdala.

P.1532 – §1 That night Jesus did not sleep. Donning \n his evening wraps, he sat out on the lake shore thinking, thinking until \n the dawn of the next day. In the long hours of that night of meditation \n Jesus came clearly to comprehend that he never would be able to make his \n followers see him in any other light than as the long-expected Messiah. \n At last he recognized that there was no way to launch his message of the \n kingdom except as the fulfillment of John’s prediction and as the one \n for whom the Jews were looking. After all, though he was not the Davidic \n type of Messiah, he was truly the fulfillment of the prophetic utterances \n of the more spiritually minded of the olden seers. Never again did he \n wholly deny that he was the Messiah. He decided to leave the final untangling \n of this complicated situation to the outworking of the Father’s will.

P.1532 – §3 Jesus’ first public appearance following \n his baptism was in the Capernaum synagogue on Sabbath, March 2, A.D. 26. \n The synagogue was crowded to overflowing. The story of the baptism in \n the Jordan was now augmented by the fresh news from Cana about the water \n and the wine. Jesus gave seats of honor to his six apostles, and seated \n with them were his brothers in the flesh James and Jude. His mother, having \n returned to Capernaum with James the evening before, was also present, \n being seated in the women’s section of the synagogue. The entire audience \n was on edge; they expected to behold some extraordinary manifestation \n of supernatural power which would be a fitting testimony to the nature \n and authority of him who was that day to speak to them. But they were \n destined to disappointment.

Where is the house that you built for me? And where is \n the place of my dwelling? All these things have my hands made,’ says the \n Lord. `But to this man will I look, even to him who is poor and of a contrite \n spirit, and who trembles at my word.’ Hear the word of the Lord, you who \n tremble and fear: `Your brethren hated you and cast you out for my name’s \n sake.’ But let the Lord be glorified.

But thus says the Lord: `Behold \n I will extend peace like a river, and the glory of even the gentiles shall \n be like a flowing stream. As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort \n you. And you shall be comforted even in Jerusalem. And when you see these \n things, your heart shall rejoice.’"

P.1533 – §3 Jesus instructed them to take up their \n regular duties until "the hour of the kingdom comes." And to \n encourage them, he set an example by going back regularly to work in the \n boatshop. In explaining that they should spend three hours every evening \n in study and preparation for their future work, Jesus further said: "We \n will all remain hereabout until the Father bids me call you. Each of you \n must now return to his accustomed work just as if nothing had happened. \n Tell no man about me and remember that my kingdom is not to come with \n noise and glamor, but rather must it come through the great change which \n my Father will have wrought in your hearts and in the hearts of those \n who shall be called to join you in the councils of the kingdom. You are \n now my friends; I trust you and I love you; you are soon to become my \n personal associates. Be patient, be gentle. <\/font><\/p>\n

Be ever obedient to the Father’s \n will. Make yourselves ready for the call of the kingdom. While you will \n experience great joy in the service of my Father, you should also be prepared \n for trouble, for I warn you that it will be only through much tribulation \n that many will enter the kingdom. But those who have found the kingdom, \n their joy will be full, and they shall be called the blest of all the \n earth. But do not entertain false hope; the world will stumble at my words. \n Even you, my friends, do not fully perceive what I am unfolding to your \n confused minds. Make no mistake; we go forth to labor for a generation \n of sign seekers. They will demand wonder-working as the proof that I am \n sent by my Father, and they will be slow to recognize in the revelation \n of my Father’s love the credentials of my mission."<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n

I cannot figure out what it all means." \n But James’s wife did much to bolster Mary’s courage.

 <\/p><\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

P.1534 – §1 Throughout these four months these seven \n believers, one his own brother in the flesh, were getting acquainted with \n Jesus; they were getting used to the idea of living with this God-man. \n Though they called him Rabbi, they were learning not to be afraid of him. \n Jesus possessed that matchless grace of personality which enabled him \n so to live among them that they were not dismayed by his divinity. They \n found it really easy to be "friends with God," God incarnate \n in the likeness of mortal flesh. This time of waiting severely tested \n the entire group of believers. Nothing, absolutely nothing, miraculous \n happened. Day by day they went about their ordinary work, while night \n after night they sat at Jesus’ feet. And they were held together by his \n matchless personality and by the gracious words which he spoke to them \n evening upon evening.
\n <\/font><\/td>\n 		 <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n
P.1534 – §2 This period of waiting and teaching was \n especially hard on Simon Peter. He repeatedly sought to persuade Jesus \n to launch forth with the preaching of the kingdom in Galilee while John \n continued to preach in Judea. But Jesus’ reply to Peter ever was: "Be \n patient, Simon. Make progress. We shall be none too ready when the Father \n calls." And Andrew would calm Peter now and then with his more seasoned \n and philosophic counsel. Andrew was tremendously impressed with the human \n naturalness of Jesus. He never grew weary of contemplating how one who \n could live so near God could be so friendly and considerate of men.

And Jesus saw to it that no more apparent miracles happened during \n this time. But even though they lived so quietly at Bethsaida, reports \n of the strange doings of Jesus had been carried to Herod Antipas, who \n in turn sent spies to ascertain what he was about. But Herod was more \n concerned about the preaching of John. He decided not to molest Jesus, \n whose work continued along so quietly at Capernaum.

8. SERMON ON THE KINGDOM – P.1535
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1535 – §7 On Sabbath, June 22, shortly before they \n went out on their first preaching tour and about ten days after John’s \n imprisonment, Jesus occupied the synagogue pulpit for the second time \n since bringing his apostles to Capernaum.
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

P.1535 – §8 A few days before the preaching of this \n sermon on "The Kingdom," as Jesus was at work in the boatshop, \n Peter brought him the news of John’s arrest. Jesus laid down his tools \n once more, removed his apron, and said to Peter: "The Father’s hour \n has come. Let us make ready to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom."

P.1535 – §9 Jesus did his last work at the carpenter \n bench on this Tuesday, June 18, A.D. 26. Peter rushed out of the shop \n and by midafternoon had rounded up all of his associates, and leaving \n them in a grove by the shore, he went in quest of Jesus. But he could \n not find him, for the Master had gone to a different grove to pray. And \n they did not see him until late that evening when he returned to Zebedee’s \n house and asked for food. The next day he sent his brother James to ask \n for the privilege of speaking in the synagogue the coming Sabbath day. \n And the ruler of the synagogue was much pleased that Jesus was again willing \n to conduct the service.
\n <\/font><\/td>\n 		 <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n

P.1536 – §1 Before Jesus preached this memorable \n sermon on the kingdom of God, the first pretentious effort of his public \n career, he read from the Scriptures these passages: "You shall be \n to me a kingdom of priests, a holy people. Yahweh is our judge, Yahweh \n is our lawgiver, Yahweh is our king; he will save us. Yahweh is my king \n and my God. He is a great king over all the earth. Loving-kindness is \n upon Israel in this kingdom. Blessed be the glory of the Lord for he is \n our King."

P.1536 – §2 When he had finished reading, Jesus said:

P.1536 – §3 "I have come to proclaim the establishment \n of the Father’s kingdom. And this kingdom shall include the worshiping \n souls of Jew and gentile, rich and poor, free and bond, for my Father \n is no respecter of persons; his love and his mercy are over all.

P.1536 – §4 "The Father in heaven sends his \n spirit to indwell the minds of men, and when I shall have finished my \n work on earth, likewise shall the Spirit of Truth be poured out upon all \n flesh. And the spirit of my Father and the Spirit of Truth shall establish \n you in the coming kingdom of spiritual understanding and divine righteousness. \n My kingdom is not of this world. The Son of Man will not lead forth armies \n in battle for the establishment of a throne of power or a kingdom of worldly \n glory. When my kingdom shall have come, you shall know the Son of Man \n as the Prince of Peace, the revelation of the everlasting Father. The \n children of this world fight for the establishment and enlargement of \n the kingdoms of this world, but my disciples shall enter the kingdom of \n heaven by their moral decisions and by their spirit victories; and when \n they once enter therein, they shall find joy, righteousness, and eternal \n life.

P.1536 – §5 "Those who first seek to enter the \n kingdom, thus beginning to strive for a nobility of character like that \n of my Father, shall presently possess all else that is needful. But I \n say to you in all sincerity: Unless you seek entrance into the kingdom \n with the faith and trusting dependence of a little child, you shall in \n no wise gain admission.

P.1536 – §6 "Be not deceived by those who come \n saying here is the kingdom or there is the kingdom, for my Father’s kingdom \n concerns not things visible and material. And this kingdom is even now \n among you, for where the spirit of God teaches and leads the soul of man, \n there in reality is the kingdom of heaven. And this kingdom of God is \n righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

P.1536 – §8 "In my Father’s kingdom there shall \n be neither Jew nor gentile, only those who seek perfection through service, \n for I declare that he who would be great in my Father’s kingdom must first \n become server of all. If you are willing to serve your fellows, you shall \n sit down with me in my kingdom, even as, by serving in the similitude \n of the creature, I shall presently sit down with my Father in his kingdom.

P.1536 – §9 "This new kingdom is like a seed \n growing in the good soil of a field. It does not attain full fruit quickly. \n There is an interval of time between the establishment of the kingdom \n in the soul of man and that hour when the kingdom ripens into the full \n fruit of everlasting righteousness and eternal salvation.

P.1537 – §5 When he had thus spoken, he sat down. \n All who heard him were astonished at his words. His disciples marveled. \n But the people were not prepared to receive the good news from the lips \n of this God-man. About one third who heard him believed the message even \n though they could not fully comprehend it; about one third prepared in \n their hearts to reject such a purely spiritual concept of the expected \n kingdom, while the remaining one third could not grasp his teaching, many \n truly believing that he "was beside himself."<\/font><\/p><\/td>\n
