La Gracia de Dar || 2 Corintios 8 y 9
==========

‭‭2 Corintios‬ ‭8:1-5‬‬
Asimismo, hermanos, os hacemos saber la gracia de Dios que se ha dado a las iglesias de Macedonia; que en grande prueba de tribulación, la abundancia de su gozo y su profunda pobreza abundaron en riquezas de su generosidad. Pues doy testimonio de que con agrado han dado conforme a sus fuerzas, y aun más allá de sus fuerzas, pidiéndonos con muchos ruegos que les concediésemos el privilegio de participar en este servicio para los santos. Y no como lo esperábamos, sino que a sí mismos se dieron primeramente al Señor, y luego a nosotros por la voluntad de Dios;

‭‭2 Corintios‬ ‭9:6-8‬‬
Pero esto digo: El que siembra escasamente, también segará escasamente; y el que siembra generosamente, generosamente también segará. Cada uno dé como propuso en su corazón: no con tristeza, ni por necesidad, porque Dios ama al dador alegre. Y poderoso es Dios para hacer que abunde en vosotros toda gracia, a fin de que, teniendo siempre en todas las cosas todo lo suficiente, abundéis para toda buena obra;

1. Dar es bendición para otros (9.1-5)

"Porque me es por demás escribirles acerca de esta ayuda a los santos; 2 pues conozco vuestra buena disposición, de la que me glorío por…”

2. Dar es bendición para nosotros (9.6-11)

"Pero esto digo: Él que siembra escasamente, escasamente también cosechará; y el que siembra abundantemente, abundantemente también cosechará."

3. Dar es bendición que Glorifica a Dios (9.12-15)

"Porque la ministración de este servicio no solo suple con plenitud lo que falta a los santos, sino que también sobreabunda a través de muchas acciones de gracias a Dios."

- Dar es un privilegio (8:4)
- Dar surge del compromiso (8:5)
- Dar es una acción voluntaria (8:8)
- Dar tiene propósito (8:13–16)
- Dar tiene consecuencias personales (9:6)
- Dar tiene que ver con la mente y el corazón (9:7)
- Dar tiene resultados espirituales y materiales (9:12)

"Generosity"
2 Corinthians 9:6-13

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9:6-13‬‬
The point is this: The person who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the person who sows generously will also reap generously. Each person should do as he has decided in his heart — not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work. As it is written: He distributed freely; he gave to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. Now the one who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will also provide and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way for all generosity, which produces thanksgiving to God through us. For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. Because of the proof provided by this ministry, they will glorify God for your obedient confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone.

It's Okay, Give It Away
(v.6)

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9:6‬‬
The point is this: The person who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the person who sows generously will also reap generously.

When It Comes to Your Treasure, Give It with Pleasure
(v.7)

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9:7‬‬
Each person should do as he has decided in his heart — not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver.

Let Go of Greed, and God Will Provide All You Need
(v.8)

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9:8‬‬
And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work.

Giving is not actually about giving.
It's about faith.

“El bueno, el malo y el feo”

1 corintios 3.1-4

Así que yo, hermanos, no pude hablaros como a espirituales, sino como a carnales, como a niños en Cristo. ² Os di a beber leche, no alimento sólido, porque todavía no podíais recibirlo. En verdad, ni aun ahora podéis, ³ porque todavía sois carnales. Pues habiendo celos y contiendas entre vosotros, ¿no sois carnales y andáis como hombres?⁴ Porque cuando uno dice: Yo soy de Pablo, y otro: Yo soy de Apolos, ¿no sois simplemente hombres?

1. El hombre

"Pero el hombre natural no percibe las cosas que son del Espíritu de Dios, porque para él son locura, y no las puede entender…"  (I Cor. 2:14).

2. El hombre

"En cambio el espiritual juzga todas las cosas…” (I Cor. 2:15).

3. El hombre

“Así que yo, hermanos, no pude hablaros como a espirituales, sino como a carnales, como a niños en Cristo.” (I Cor. 3.1)

"A United Church"
1 Corinthians 1:10-13, 26-31

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1:10-13‬‬
Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, that there be no divisions among you, and that you be united with the same understanding and the same conviction. For it has been reported to me about you, my brothers and sisters, by members of Chloe’s people, that there is rivalry among you. What I am saying is this: One of you says, “I belong to Paul,” or “I belong to Apollos,” or “I belong to Cephas,” or “I belong to Christ.” Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in Paul’s name?

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1:26-31‬‬
Brothers and sisters, consider your calling: Not many were wise from a human perspective, not many powerful, not many of noble birth. Instead, God has chosen what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong. God has chosen what is insignificant and despised in the world  — what is viewed as nothing — to bring to nothing what is viewed as something, so that no one may boast in his presence. It is from him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom from God for us — our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption —  in order that, as it is written: Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.

Disunity: The Cause
Pride (v. 26-31)

Pride is when your Preferences come first and your Prayers come last.

Disunity: The Consequences
We Fight (v.11)
We Fail (v.26)

Disunity: The Cure
Proclaim the Gospel (v.17)
Humble yourself in prayer (v.2,19)
Surrender your preferences over to Christ (v.10,31)

Romans 12:18: “as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.”

"Joy For The Journey"
Jonah 3:10 – 4:11

Joy comes when our focus is on the promises of Heaven and not on the pleasures of earth.

‭‭Jonah‬ ‭3:10‬‬
God saw their actions — that they had turned from their evil ways  — so God relented from the disaster he had threatened them with. And he did not do it.

‭‭Jonah‬ ‭4:1-11‬‬
Jonah was greatly displeased and became furious. He prayed to the Lord, “Please, Lord, isn’t this what I said while I was still in my own country? That’s why I fled toward Tarshish in the first place. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger, abounding in faithful love, and one who relents from sending disaster. And now, Lord, take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.” The Lord asked, “Is it right for you to be angry?” Jonah left the city and found a place east of it. He made himself a shelter there and sat in its shade to see what would happen to the city. Then the Lord God appointed a plant, and it grew over Jonah to provide shade for his head to rescue him from his trouble. Jonah was greatly pleased with the plant. When dawn came the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the plant, and it withered. As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind. The sun beat down on Jonah’s head so much that he almost fainted, and he wanted to die. He said, “It’s better for me to die than to live.” Then God asked Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the plant?” “Yes, it’s right!” he replied. “I’m angry enough to die!” And the Lord said, “You cared about the plant, which you did not labor over and did not grow. It appeared in a night and perished in a night. So may I not care about the great city of Nineveh, which has more than a hundred twenty thousand people who cannot distinguish between their right and their left, as well as many animals?”

Jonah was Selfish

Jonah was Angry

Jonah was Double-minded

Jonah was S.A.D.

Joy comes when you make a commitment to God’s way in your life, no matter what.

‭‭James‬ ‭1:11‬‬
For the sun rises and, together with the scorching wind, dries up the grass; its flower falls off, and its beautiful appearance perishes. In the same way, the rich person will wither away while pursuing his activities.

‭‭James‬ ‭1:12‬‬
Blessed is the one who endures trials, because when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

‭‭John‬ ‭15:8-11‬‬
My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be my disciples. “As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commands you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. “I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12:2‬‬
keeping our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy that lay before him, he endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10:39‬‬
Anyone who finds his life will lose it, and anyone who loses his life because of me will find it.

If God always “healed” your situation, there are so many people who would miss out on the benefit of your testimony.

La Compasión de Dios y la nuestra… || Jonás 4
==========

‭‭Jonás‬ ‭4:1-11‬‬
Pero Jonás se apesadumbró en extremo, y se enojó. Y oró a Jehová y dijo: Ahora, oh Jehová, ¿no es esto lo que yo decía estando aún en mi tierra? Por eso me apresuré a huir a Tarsis; porque sabía yo que tú eres Dios clemente y piadoso, tardo en enojarte, y de grande misericordia, y que te arrepientes del mal. Ahora pues, oh Jehová, te ruego que me quites la vida; porque mejor me es la muerte que la vida. Y Jehová le dijo: ¿Haces tú bien en enojarte tanto? Y salió Jonás de la ciudad, y acampó hacia el oriente de la ciudad, y se hizo allí una enramada, y se sentó debajo de ella a la sombra, hasta ver qué acontecería en la ciudad. Y preparó Jehová Dios una calabacera, la cual creció sobre Jonás para que hiciese sombra sobre su cabeza, y le librase de su malestar; y Jonás se alegró grandemente por la calabacera. Pero al venir el alba del día siguiente, Dios preparó un gusano, el cual hirió la calabacera, y se secó. Y aconteció que al salir el sol, preparó Dios un recio viento solano, y el sol hirió a Jonás en la cabeza, y se desmayaba, y deseaba la muerte, diciendo: Mejor sería para mí la muerte que la vida. Entonces dijo Dios a Jonás: ¿Tanto te enojas por la calabacera? Y él respondió: Mucho me enojo, hasta la muerte. Y dijo Jehová: Tuviste tú lástima de la calabacera, en la cual no trabajaste, ni tú la hiciste crecer; que en espacio de una noche nació, y en espacio de otra noche pereció. ¿Y no tendré yo piedad de Nínive, aquella gran ciudad donde hay más de ciento veinte mil personas que no saben discernir entre su mano derecha y su mano izquierda, y muchos animales?

1. La Queja de Jonás (1-5)
“Pero esto desagradó a Jonás en gran manera, y se enojó…”

2. La Lección de Dios (6-8)
“Y el Señor Dios dispuso que una planta creciera sobre Jonás…”

3. La Meta de Dios (9-11)
“¿y no he de apiadarme yo de Nínive, la gran ciudad?”
