Cornerstone Chinese Bible Study - 2008-09-12 耶穌被捕

Last Friday, we discussed and shared about prayers (山園祈禱) in Luke 22:39~46. It seemed that“prayers” always is an endless discussable subject that never runs out of our sharing and we always feel short of discussion time in our meeting. Most of us always discovered the new meanings, methods, and attitudes of prayers in our individual life. We might have one dedicated week just for "prayer" discussion. You can visit some of following web pages for your immediate reference:

The mental image of Jesus driving out merchants who turned His father's holy temple into a market place has always been a challenging message for me. Thinking of Jesus being holy and pious and mild, chasing people out of the temple and turning over tables is hard to imagine. I guess being charitable, nice, and showing love and support for those around us, does not equate to tolerating outright abuse of God's purpose. I see in Jesus an example of choosing and proclaiming God's desire above things in our lives that turns our soul and body (the very temple of God) into anything unfit as the the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit and a holy place of prayer and worship.

"Dear Jesus, just as you have taught daily in the temple having driven out the unworthy, come into our lives, clense us of all sin and make us pure dwelling places. Be with us every day to comfort, fill us with peace and joy, and empower us to do your will."

What joy Zacchaeus must have felt when Jesus spotted him from afar amongst a huge crowd, and said to him: "I must stay at your house today!". Just as Jesus sees right through Zacchaeus' heart, He knows ours too. Just as Jesus invited Himself to Zacchaeus' house, He also extends his invitation to each of us to let Him into our hearts.

"Lord Jesus, we invite you into our hearts. Come and fill us with the joy of your salvation. Grant us the freedom to lay at your feet every possession or desire that we have considered more precious than you."
