癤풲he One Whom God Loves
(Matthew 3:13-17)

혻 Although we lose all things in this world, if we have only one, the love of God we can live a victorious life. The life of Jesus on this earth was with the love of God. We should all follow Jesus and become those whom God loves.

1. The servant of humility and obedience (Mt 3:13-15)
혻 Jesus absolutely obeyed God?셲 will and came to this earth. All people in this world are born to live, but Jesus became flesh on this earth to die for all human beings. And He lived a life that served with the lowest and humblest attitude. As all people were baptized, Jesus the Son of God came in flesh and was baptized in order to accomplish salvation. All human sins begin with pride in a way in which they wanted to be like God. Therefore we must always try to crucify our pride. We should live a life of humility like Jesus. When we humble ourselves before God, He exalts us. 혻 혻 혻

2. The person of the Holy Spirit (Mt 3:16)
혻 The life of Jesus was with the Holy Spirit. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit came upon Him when He was baptized. He fasted for forty days before He began His public life by the guidance of the Holy Spirit. His ministry was also filled with the Holy Spirit and power. (Ac 10:38) His last teaching was concerning the Holy Spirit. It is the age of the Holy Spirit in this present time. We can do nothing without the Holy Spirit. The church without the Holy Spirit is no longer the church. Then it becomes a spiritual grave like many European churches that are closed and sold. Therefore, live as a person of the Holy Spirit, always walking with the Spirit.

3. The one in whom God is pleased (Mt 3:17)
혻 When Jesus came out of the water after being baptized, a voice was heard, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." God said the same on the hill of transformation.(Mt 17:5) In this way our life should please God. We should be those whom God acknowledges rather than human beings do and become those in whom God is pleased. When we decide and judge all things, we should always consider first whether or not God is pleased with it. Hold on to God?셲 Word of promise, be filled with the Holy Spirit, always pray, and move on with faith. God is looking for a person of faith.

?€Our God loves those who have absolutely positive faith, always obey God?셲 Word, are humble before God and people, and live a life of walking with the Holy Spirit.
