Mandato Global - El Peregrinar de la Iglesia
Parte 13 (Hechos 20:29-32)
29 Sé que después de mi partida entrarán en medio de ustedes lobos feroces que procurarán acabar con el rebaño.
rebaño vs. lobos (pastor)
- pon a prueba todo el que hable en el nombre de Dios
- fidelidad (no solo fe) al Evangelio
- hechos & palabras
30 Aun de entre ustedes mismos se levantarán algunos que enseñarán falsedades para arrastrar a los discípulos que los sigan.
perseverancia vs. preservación
31 Así que estén alerta. Recuerden que día y noche, durante tres años, no he dejado de amonestar con lágrimas a cada uno en particular.
preferencias personales vs. la perspectiva del Evangelio
protección a través de la proclamación
32 »Ahora los encomiendo a Dios y al mensaje de su gracia, mensaje que tiene poder para edificarlos y darles herencia entre todos los santificados.

World Mandate - The Journey of the Church
Part 13 (Acts 20:29-32)
29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.
flock vs. wolves (shepherd)
- test everyone who speaks for God
- faithfulness (not just faith) to the Gospel
- word & deed
30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.
perseverance vs. preservation
31 So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.
personal preferences vs. the Gospel as my world-view
protection by proclamation
32 “Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

World Mandate - The Journey of the Church
Part 9 (Acts 17:27-31)
27 God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.
without guilt (1st Adam) vs. guilty one (2nd Adam)
28 ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’
the relevancy of poetry
29 “Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by human design and skill.
relevant need vs. irrelevant help
30 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.
justice (God provides it) vs. mercy (man expects it)
31 For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
salvation = the Justice of God + the Justifier of God
