Originally from southern California, Pastor Peter graduated from UC Irvine with a degree in economics and began working in the field of accounting. He was called by the Lord into pastoral ministry and completed his studies in apologetics and biblical studies at Talbot School of Theology while serving as a Youth Pastor of Korean Westminster Presbyterian Church in Orange County, and as Executive Pastor and Interim Lead Pastor of Newsong Church in Fullerton, California. During college, Pastor Peter’s handsome looks landed him as the token Asian extra for the drama “Days of Our Lives” television program for three years. He loves to eat spaghetti, meatballs, Texas toast, and Dr. Pepper. He is married to his beautiful wife, and together they are now empty-nesters with two daughters in college. *Let’s prepare to celebrate and receive God’s Word through Pastor Peter! *NEW ECO Presbyterian ENGLISH CHURCH BEING BORN OUT OF THE KOREAN-AMERICAN CHURCH!

Pastor Chester has been assisting in their chartering process and it has now come to fruition! Praise God for adding one more Christ-centered church to His Kingdom expansion mission and the advancement of the evangelical, reformed, Presbyterian, and egalitarian witness of the gospel and holy Scripture!

[LORD'S DAY RESURRECTION SUNDAY] The Gospel According to the Acts of the Apostles – THE CHURCH IN ACTION (part 65): Encourage and Strengthen with the Letter: The Power of Reading, Responding, and Rejoicing in the Word of God (ACTS 15:30-35) (1.) [v.30-31] After drafting the letter is complete, the Jerusalem Church commissions Paul, Barnabas, Silas, and Judas to deliver the letter to the Antioch Church. They arrive in Antioch, gather the congregation, and read the letter. The letter brought clarification, correction, restoration of the grace of the gospel, and instructions on items to abstain from to bring harmony and one accord to the growing mixed Christian community of both Gentiles and Jews alike. Instead of resisting and despising the letter, its message was received with joy because of its encouragement. *When has a letter written for you, received in your mail/email, and read aloud brought joy and encouragement? Has the gospel of grace in the Word of God brought to you joy and encouragement, or sorrow and despair? As the Antioch Christians were spiritually prepared to hear and respond to the Word of God, how is the state of your spiritual preparation? (2.) [v.32-33] Seeing how joyful and encouraged the Antioch Christians were at the reading of the letter, both Judas and Silas further encourage and strengthen the Antioch Christians with many of their own words through their prophetic spiritual gifts. *How can your own words build up or tear down someone? How can your words strengthen or weaken someone? Where must my words be rooted to bring Christ’s presence, strength, and encouragement to others? (3.) [v.35] Whether Silas stayed or departed (issue of missing v.24) does not disrupt the integrity and reliability of Scripture. The focus here is that Paul and Barnabas did remain in Antioch to persevere in teaching and preaching the word of the Lord. *Is true discipleship in following after Jesus a one-stop quick trip, or does it demand your long-term covenant in your relationships, with your local church, with a teachable spirit before your pastor-teacher? [Korean translation] [주일 부활절] 사도행전에 따른 복음 – 행동하는 교회 (65부): 편지를 통해 권면하여 굳게 하라: 하나님의 말씀을 읽고, 응답하고, 기뻐하는 능력 (사도행전 15:30-35) (1.) [30-31절] 편지 작성이 완료된 후, 예루살렘 교회는 바울, 바나바, 실라, 그리고 유다에게 안디옥 교회에 편지를 전하도록 위임했습니다. 그들은 안디옥에 도착하여 회중을 모으고 편지를 읽었습니다. 이 편지는 명확한 설명, 교정, 복음의 은혜 회복, 그리고 이방인과 유대인이 함께하는 성장하는 혼합 기독교 공동체에 화합과 일치를 가져오기 위해 삼가야 할 것들에 대한 지침을 담고 있었습니다. 그들은 편지를 거부하고 멸시하는 대신, 격려가 되는 내용 때문에 기쁨으로 받아들였습니다. *여러분은 우편이나 이메일로 받은 편지를 소리 내어 읽었을 때 언제 기쁨과 격려를 받았습니까? 하나님의 말씀에 담긴 은혜의 복음은 여러분에게 기쁨과 격려를 가져다주었습니까, 아니면 슬픔과 절망을 가져다주었습니까? 안디옥의 그리스도인들이 하나님의 말씀을 듣고 응답할 영적인 준비가 되어 있었던 것처럼, 여러분의 영적 준비 상태는 어떻습니까? (2.) [32-33절] 안디옥 그리스도인들이 편지를 읽고 기뻐하고 격려받는 것을 보고, 유다와 실라는 예언적인 은사를 통해 많은 말로 안디옥 그리스도인들을 더욱 격려하고 굳건하게 했습니다. *당신의 말은 어떻게 누군가를 세우거나 무너뜨릴 수 있습니까? 당신의 말은 어떻게 누군가를 강하게 하거나 약하게 할 수 있습니까? 그리스도의 임재와 힘과 격려를 다른 사람들에게 전하려면 내 말은 어디에 뿌리를 내려야 합니까? (3.) [35절] 실라가 머물렀는지 떠났는지(24절이 누락된 문제)는 성경의 진실성과 신뢰성을 해치지 않습니다. 여기서 중요한 것은 바울과 바나바가 안디옥에 남아 주님의 말씀을 가르치고 전파하는 일에 전념했다는 것입니다. *예수님을 따르는 진정한 제자도는 단 한 번의 짧은 여정일까요, 아니면 지역 교회와의 관계, 목사-교사 앞에서 배우려는 마음가짐 등 장기적인 언약을 요구하는 것일까요? *KINGDOM EXPANSION RESPONSIVE SCRIPTURE READING & PRAYER – Elder Patrick Liu will lead us in this week’s Kingdom expansion responsive Scripture reading and prayer. [[*Please rise, as you are willing and able, out of reverence and honor for the reading of the Word of God and praying of the Word of God.]] Prayer Topic: Showing Compassion and Forgiveness to One Another
