Good day Steemians, may the Mercy of the Lord Jesus Christ Love and Communion of the Holy Spirit With You.
Church Social Project
Today's meeting I want to explain about the Project I'm running in Indonesia. I accompanied him "Social Church" Hopefully today the Project is getting Directed its purpose.
Well, I want you to share the short story below: This story is my motivation to run the Project in helping others.
Parable
A good samaria begins with a question?
What "Teacher" should I do to earn eternal life?
This question ends with a practical action, and without words to explain what it means to unite with the suffering of fellow human beings in the edges of the path of life, Similarly when the question arises of a jurist.
"What should I do?" closed with Jesus' answer. "Do so, and you shall live." Jesus means, "Practice what you already know and always say That !!
"Love the god of your God and love your neighbor"
Dissatisfied with the answer, the scribes asked another question, with the aim of provoking theological debates to be more exciting, longer and more scientific
"Who Are My Humans?"
"I do not know his name" answered Jesus. In many cases it is not necessary to know because the fellow human beings can be anyone, fellow is anyone who is helpless in the outskirts of the road you are traveling. It does not matter whether he is a Jew, a Samaritan, a Muslim or a Christian, an Afghan or an American citizen of a descendant or a Native.
From the above story there are at least some lessons we can meet in the spread of the love of Jesus Christ in this world. And let's see the Deuteronomy I quoted.
"There will be no poor among you, for the Lord will indeed bless you in the land which God gave your God to you to be the property of Heirloom, as long as you listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do faithfully the commandment that I am giving unto you today "(Deuteronomy 15: 4-5).
The Lord Jesus says the poor always have you (Matthew 26:11).
Then I conclude our social concern is the responsibility taggug to care for and care for the poor and oppressed people. And here we are doing something for their welfare.
Who are the oppressed?
They consist of Orphans Widow, Poor Because of Disease and Victims of Economic Political Persecution.
The command to help the poor in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is a very clear biblical witness. All those who have been called in his name must walk in love (Ephesians 5: 2).
We must work out our mercy (2 Corinthians 1: 3-4).
We must struggle with justice and practice mercy, mercy and freedom both to adults and children wherever we are (Zechariah 7: 8-10).
Response Toward the Poor
Human Social Patterns in a society so that it produces a system of structures and patterns that contribute to the realization of general welfare.
The concept of the general welfare of a taste love that must be pursued and manifested by man or society, because only with the realization of general welfare. So the dignity and prestige of the human person is guaranteed both in his confession and in his appreciation.
In many ways I read about the Social-applied Church there is a fundamental principle of the most fundamental of Harkat and Dignity in the human personality.
"It is not from us that we give, but the will of Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as slaves, because of Jesus' will (2Cor 4: 5)
Loving the oppressed by unlocking the tyranny of Kezaliman and unleashing the ropes of the yoke of the degradation of his most daring man and breaking each yoke.
Breaking your bread for the hungry and bringing home your poor homeless, and when you see the naked man give me the clothes and not hide from yourselves. (Zechariah 58: 6-7).
Basic Principles of Thought
Maybe I need to explain to the steemian community around Vision and Mission Project.
This project first addresses the attitude of individual Christian ministry. The foundation of this project is Christ's Church-recognized attitude as the basis of his life.
Departing from that I feel remarkable to take my role here and tell all the steemian about the attitude of Christ's ministry.
But this can be realized publicly by appearing in the midst of society. This appearance will arise in two forms as the embodiment of faith and as the expression of the Faith.
"If faith is not accompanied by works, then the faith is in essence dead (James 2:17).
Service Helps, Accompanying Others in Joint Venture
Jesus Christ Himself identifies with the little people and desires, so if we believe in Jesus Christ by itself we should also pay attention to the small and the suffering.
"I say what you did for one of my most humble brothers, you have done for me" Matthew 25:40.
The basic direction of ALLAH ALLAH diocese also emphasizes attention and empowerment to the small, poor poor and marginalized. So that we all become significant and relevant to ourselves and to the general public.
Through this paper I invite readers to get to know the social teachings I am dissenting here and certainly in accordance with the teachings of the Church. Not only in the scriptures, but in the history of life it is very diverse in realizing faith in social life.
We are not silent spectators, let's move for our brothers who need our help.
Activity
In the effort of development and development of the community, the acquisition will be focused on the activities of schools and health work. And All sorts of societies that have cultural or economic goals that are "general" in nature.
Or ministry is manifested in the form of Christ's ministry in practice and instilled in the common life of society. If anyone suspects it is a "Christianity" attitude but I affirm that there is nothing in Khirtiani's sense of devotion.
Basically the social activities I do in Indonesia are no different from individual efforts in realizing Christ's Service attitude and benchmarks are not typical Christian symbols or formulas but with the characteristics of Christ.
