    THE TRAINING OFCHRIST'S DISCIPLESPART 1Hve you ever played on a basketball orvolleyball team? I f so, you may wellremember the many hours you spentpracticing. I f you had a coach, he taught youthe plans and strategies your team would use inorder to play its best! He showed you how toplay a winning game, and had you practicemany times until you could perform each movecorrectly. Your coach may also have emphasized the importance of having the rightattitude so that your team would truly functionas a cooperative unit.

    CHRIST EDUCATES HIS "TEAM"Jesus Christ is the coach of His "Team"the members who make up His Church. Hegives them a plan to follow so that they can

    succeed in fulfilling their purpose for livingbecoming members of the God Family! Christeducates His people in the basics of that planand drills them constantly. He teaches throughHis words in the Bible the attitudes and actionswhich will help them to become victors in thislife, and in the life to come.During his human existence on earth,Christ's initial team consisted of the originaltwelve apostles. He personally taught them the

    principles of God's purpose and plan formankind-what we might call the "game oflife." After Christ's death and resurrection, Heinspired these men to write down the rules ofABOUT OUR COVER . . .The Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. It was here thatChrist taught His disciples many principles of Christianliving.

    the game, and the strategies for playing itTheir writings became a part of what we todaycall the Holy Bible. This assured that newmembers would also be trained by Christ.God's Church today is made up of Hispresent-day disciples who are members ofChrist's team. As members or future membersof that team, it is important for them tounderstand and apply the rules, strategies andlaws which the Coach, Jesus Christ, gavethrough the older teammates, the apostles andprophets. With this in mind, let us nowcontinue our study of what Christ taught Hisdisciples in the famous "Sermon on theMount."CHRIST MAGNIFIES THE LAW

    Christ explained in Matthew 5:3-12 how thedisciples, members of His Church and theirchildren must conduct themselves in order tobe blessed. He emphasized in verses 13-16 thawe are to set the right example by our actions.Like a light on a distant hill, our goodexamples will lead others to see that God's wayproduces good results.Read Matthew 5:17 and then fill in thefollowing blanks. "Think not that I am come todestroy the , or the_______ : I am come to_____ , but to ." Chrisknew that His Team must know and play bythe rules in order to succeed. He did nodispose of the rules. Rather, He explainedclearly and completely the limits within whichthey must be followed. Let's now examine someof these rules.

    Read Matthew 5:18-26 and especially noticethe instruction Christ gave His disciples inverse 20. "For I say unto you, Thatshall the righteousness of the_____ and , ye shallIn case into the_______ of heaven." Jesus empha-sized to His disciples that they would have toobey His laws before they could be born intothe Family of God. Christ then explained thattrue Christians are to obey the "spirit of thelaw," in addition to the "letter of the law." Thescribes and Pharisees were very careful to keepthe letter of the law. But they neglected, oromitted, the spirit or intent of the law-itsspiritual application in their lives! (Matthew23:23.)To show what He meant, Jesus reminded thedisciples that the sixth commandment forbadethem to commit murder. Even the Pharisees bytheir own human effort might keep themselvesfrom doing that! But Christ said obedience to thiscommandment in its spiritual intent was

    God's laws, along with other rules of conduct,are essential for successful living.

    necessary in order to build righteous characteGod's people are not to have an attitudecontempt or hatred toward other humabeings. Hatred is an attitude which can oftelead to the action of murder, given the rigcircumstances. One who has such an attitudea murderer in God's sight! (I John 3:15Christ's disciples, with the help of God's Spirwere to keep the spirit and intent of the lawTo further illustrate the point, Chrireferred to the seventh commandment forbiding adultery. We obey this command in tletter of the law by not committing the actadultery. Christ said in Matthew 5:27-28 thlusting after another person's spouse, evthinking about adultery, was in effect breakithe seventh commandment. Thought eventualleads to action (James 1:14-15).Christ set these high standards for Hdisciples even though they did not have GodHoly Spirit yet. He later told them that t"Spirit of truth," the Holy Spirit, was withem and later would be in them (Joh14:17).Jesus Christ expects us to "play by the rulof the game," both literally and accordingthe intent. To do that, we must know God's laand its spiritual application in our lives. Asproject for this lesson, read the booklet TTen Commandments published by the Worlwide Church of God. As you read the booklon a separate sheet of paper write three thing1) Each commandment as it is found in Exod20; 2) the intent of the commandment-treason or purpose God gave it to us; and 3) oway in which the commandment is obeyedits broader, spiritual application and inteAsk your parents to be involved by having thehelp you with numbers 2 and 3.

    you, and

    unishment? Would you rise in righteousdignation to proclaim your innocence and thejustice of the situation? I f so, read what Christid about such things in Matthew 5:38-48.Christ told His disciples to patiently endurehe injustices done to them. (See I Peter 2:20.)f we are kicked, we are not to kick back, norre we to stand around waiting for the persono kick us again! Rather, we should try to fleehe bad situation, and if possible, avoid it in therst place.Turn to and read Romans 12:17-21. HereChrist explained that we should "Recompenseo no man evil for evil." That is, we should notreturn kick for kick, blow for blow. Rather, wehould rely on God to avenge the injusticesone to us, and in the meantime, "overcomevil with good."Notice what Jesus specifically told us to don Matthew 5:44-45. "But I say unto you,

    yourthem that you,_____ to them that _for them which

    you, andyou; That yethe of yourwhich is in heaven: . . ."Why love our enemies and do good to thosewho hate us? So we can become the children ofGod, a part of His universe-ruling Family!Sometimes the person who hates us will have achange of heart. I f we return evil to those whoalready hate us, they will only hate us more. Butif we are kind to them, we may be astonished attheir change of attitude towards us.Now read Matthew 5:48 and notice whatelse Christ wants us to do. "Be [become] yetherefore , even __ your

    which is in heaven is"Sounds difficult, doesn't it? Actually, it isimpossible to be as perfect as God in thisphysical life! But with God's help we canbecome more and more perfect like Him. Onlywhen we are born into God's divine Family will4

    we actually be perfect as He is (I John 3:9)God is perfect, and if we are to become Hisons, we too must become perfect!LEARNING TO GIVE

    Christ then taught His disciples specifithings they should do that would help themdevelop perfect Godly character. In Matthew6:1-4 Christ told the disciples how to give alms"Alms" are charitable gifts such as moneyfood and clothing which are given to people ineed. He also taught the right approach anreason for giving charitable gifts.Christ warned the disciples not to give as thhypocrites, who give not out of concern for thpoor, but only that others may see it and praisthem. Giving just to receive the praise of men iwrong! We should not try to draw attention tourselves when we give. We should givbecause we want to help other people and makthem happy.

    CHRIST TEACHES HOW TO PRAYIn order to become perfect like God we muscome to know Him well. We must know wha

    A PATTERN FOR PRAYERNotice the pattern for prayer which Christgave His disciples. Write Matthew 6, verses

    thythy which is_______ ; and thy Father which seethin secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye

    He is like, how He thinks, what are His likesand dislikes and what He does. We must learnwho and what God is. How can we do this?How do you get to know a new classmate?You talk with him. You tell him about yourselfand he tells you about himself. And that isexactly how we get to know God the Father!We talk to Him through prayer, and He talksto us through His written Word, the Bible.Little wonder that Jesus next spoke aboutthe subject of prayer. Before giving Hisdisciples a pattern for their prayers, He gavetwo general instructions about how to pray.Read Matthew 6:5-8, and complete verses 6and 7. "But thou, [not "if ']

    _____ , as the heathen do: for theythink that they shall be heard for their muchspeaking."We should not pray just so others will seeand hear us and be impressed by our"righteousness." That's what hypocrites do-epeople who want others to think they aresomething which they really are not. Rather,we should be praying because we really wantto talk to God. And that is done best inprivate!Jesus admonished His disciples not to use"vain repetitions" in their prayers. Vainrepetitions are words or phrases said over andover again. They become "fillers" in ourprayers and prevent us from having meaningfulconversation with God. God is more interestedin the quality of our prayers than in thequantity of words in them. In other words, Godwants us to pray from the heart.

    What is commonly called the "LordPrayer" is merely Jesus' way of showing uimportant concepts to incorporate in our dailprayers. Let 's examine Jesus' sample prayer idetail so we will understand it fully. We shoulbegin our prayers by acknowledging that Gois our Father. In so doing, we understand thawe are His children and have the potential tultimately become part of His universe-rulinFamily. We should thank God for that preciouknowledge and for the awesome potential obecoming immortal spirit beings. We shoulalso ask God to help us achieve thapotential-to one day become perfect icharacter as He is!We are to "hallow" (set apart as holy) thname of God by keeping the third commandment. We hallow His name by not cursingswearing or using it in a vainly repetitioumanner. We should also pray that God wihelp us not to bring reproach upon His namby setting bad examples.We should regularly pray, "Thy Kingdomcome," asking God to hasten the return oJesus Christ and the establishment of Godgovernment on earth. Only through Goddirect intervention in the affairs of mankincan peace and prosperity be established. Alsobefore that will take place, Christ said HGospel message of the Kingdom of God woulbe preached in all the world for a witness untall nations (Matthew 24:14). That is whatbeing done today by God's apostle, MHerbert W. Armstrong, and the WorldwidChurch of God!

    Our prayers should often include speciarequests for the success of all aspects of God

    9-13 on the lines below. _

    and when thou hastnto thy _

    ork. These would include requests for thentinued health, protection and inspiration ofr. Armstrong and all of God's ministry. Alsohe opening of new "doors," or ways for theospel to be preached to more people, such as

    he addition of more radio and televisiontations and more ways to distribute The PLAINmagazine. We need to ask God to callChurch members and co-workers to help

    Work through their prayers, tithes andfferings. We should also pray that God willgrace and favor to Mr. Armstrong whene meets world leaders. The more specific ourequests are, the more specifically God willespond to them.Next, we should remember to pray for God'sill to be done on earth as it is in heaven. This

    bviously involves praying for His Kingdom toestablished on earth. Only then willankind, as a whole, be doing God's will. Itmeans that we should ask God forin doing His will, and beingxamples to the world of God's way of life.We should also pray that God will help us toccept His will. For example, God may allows to go through trials because He knows it willevelop some aspect of our character which isresently weak. We may not like the trial, bute must realize it is for our ultimate good andGod for it.

    While God does not want the emphasis ofur prayers to be on physical things, He doesxpect us to ask Him to provide us with ourhysical needs. Christ did not say we should beverly concerned about our needs for tomorow, next week, next month or even next year

    6:11). He wants us to ask God forr daily needs. These include food, shelter,lothing and those things necessary for life.gain, be specific in your requests and giveod thanks for the abundant way in which Heupplies your every need.Though we try not to, we all sin. It isportant to confess our sins to God in prayernd ask Him to forgive us of those sins (I John:8-9). As you pray, think about which of

    God's commandments you may have brokeduring the day. Ask God to forgive you of thosins. And be sure to forgive others who mahave wronged you in some way. God wforgive us as we forgive others (Matthe6:14-15).

    "And lead us not into temptation [trialbut deliver us from evil [the evil one] . . .(Matthew 6:13, first part of the verse). Wshould also ask God to help us learn thnecessary lessons of the Christian life nowwe will not have to learn them later througtrials that God might allow to come upon uWe should ask God to give us the correattitude of mind to receive and apply Hrevealed instruction, so as to avoid painfexperiences. Also, we should pray for deliveance from the adverse influences of Sataand his society. We need to ask God for heand wisdom to resist the pressures of oupeers and to avoid things that we know aharmful.We should conclude our prayers by acknowedging that all power and glory belong to GoAlso, Christ later instructed His disciplesask "in my [Christ's] name" (John 14:13-14meaning by His power and authority. Wshould then end our prayers with " A m e n "meaning, so be it.Now you know the basic elements of praywhich Christ gave. On a separate sheetpaper, list at least two aspects of each elemementioned in the example prayer, so you cause them when praying to God.

    3. Even though we do not actuallymurder someone, we still break thesixth commandment if we havehatred in our hearts toward thatperson.4. Jesus Christ showed that we maykick back if we are kicked.5. In Matthew 5:48 Christ said weshould be striving to becomeperfect like God .6. Jesus said we should hate ourenemies.7. One way to become more like Godis to learn to give to others in thesame unselfish way that God givesto us.

    HOW TO FASTAfter explaining how to pray, Jesus the

    taught the disciples how to fast (Matthe6:16-18) . Fasting is what God commands usdo on the Day of Atonement . But we madecide to fast on other days also. When we fawe neither ea t food nor drink fluids. Fastinhelps to humble us before God. I t helps to focuour minds on God so that when we pray, ouprayers will be more effective. We should nofast in order to try to force God to do what wwant. Christ explained that we should nadvertise it to others when we fast. Fasting isprivate, personal matter between us and ou

    God-not something the world should knowabout.SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD

    The next section of Christ's instructions toHis disciples is summarized in Matthew 6:33.ead al l of Matthew 6: 19-34 and thenomplete verse 33 below. "But _

    ye the ofGod, and His ; and all these______ shall be untoyou." Christ reminded His disciples that manyhings would compete for their time each

    matters such as prayer andBible study; meeting one's physical needs suchs food, shelter and clothing; and the desire forpleasure, entertainment and recreation.Christ taught that we are to give spiri tualatters first priority. Why? Reread verses19-21 and notice why. Spiritual things suchprayer, Bible study, serving and help

    ng others, and the knowledge gainedd character developed by them, are the

    things of lasting worth and valueo us!Food is consumed and eliminated. Shelteray be here today and burned to the groundomorrow. Clothing can be easily ruined byoths, sunlight, sharp objects and the weather.Cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and golf clubs allear out and rust. Television sets, stereos andome video games malfunction and are easilyIs this to say that we should not do what wean to provide food, shelter, clothing and othernecessities of life? Do we sit idly by and waitfor Christ to serve us our dinner? Obviously

    not! Christ is saying to not let the "getting" ofphysical things for ourselves be our allonsuming ambition in life. A steak dinner, ora new dress should not be the most importantthing in our lives! We should not spend more ofour time and energy thinking about thesethings than we do in develop ing Godlycharacter.Notice Christ's promise to us if we put

    spiritual matters first in our lives: " . . . and athese things [the physical things mentioned iprevious verses] shall be [not "may be"] addeunto you" (Matthew 6:33). Once we havphysical things in their proper perspective, anshow God that we know how to use themproperly, He will give us those things.Christ warned His disciples that itimpossible to serve both "God and mammon(verse 24). That is, they could not devote thetime and energy to serving God and acquirinmaterial things. The two are opposites. Servinone automatically eliminates the possibility oserving the other. Therefore, Christ urged thdisciples to put spiritual things first in thelives. By doing this, they would be developinGodly character, the one enduring treasur

    which alone survives death.CHRIST WANTS HIS TEAM TO

    WORK TOGETHERHave you ever seen a winning team wherthe team members argue among themselveand with their coach? Have you seen the teammembers constantly criticizing each otherplaying ability and telling each other whadumb mistakes they have made? It's doubtfu

    that you have, since successful teams wortogether, and are mutually supportive of eacother.I f you have ever had the misfortune to plaon a team where there was constant negativcriticism, you will understand. Few things armore demoralizing than to make a mistakwhile playing your hardest and then have youteammates and coach criticize you for it. Nodoes it encourage you to play your best an

    hardest for the team if you overhear youteammates snickering about what a terriblplayer you are.Jesus Christ knew that the members of HiTeam would have to work together, tcooperate and support each other in order tsucceed. So His next instruction to the discipledealt with harsh criticism or condemnation oothers. Notice what He said in Matthew 7:1-5

    _____ , that ye be_______ . For withjudgment ye judge, ye shall be. . . Thou hypocrite, first cast out theout of _

    eye; and shalthou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thyeye."The word "judge" here implies a harshegative criticism of another 's character andotives which is condemning. I t doesn't meanyou cannot determine (judge) whether anction was or wasn't a mistake. For example, aby a teammate during a

    Team cooperation and support are keyingredients for successful teamwork.

    basketball game is a mistake. But saying thyour teammate double-dribbled because heignorant, stupid or secretly playing for topponent's team is negative, unconstructicriticism. It is a judgment which probably hasbasis in fact; certainly not the kind of judgmyou would want someone to use on you!Jesus Christ wants His disciples - HChurch, His "Team," - to support aencourage one another-not to find fault wor backbite one another. When teammasupport each other emotionally and help oanother improve their skills, they play wgreater unity of action and purpose.In Matthew 7:12 Christ described what oattitudes toward each other should be. "Thefore whatsoevye would that men should ye even__________ : for this is the l

    strategies (verses 15, 23). In other words, theywould not teach obedience to God's commandments (Mark 7:7-9).Christ admonished His Team to check thefruits (results) of the ways of these falsecoaches (Matthew 7:16-20). I f their ways didnot produce peace, unity, cooperation andmutual support, they were not sent by JesusChrist. I f they did not uphold the same rules orlaws of God that Christ did, they were not sentby Him. I f they did not support the will of Godthe Father and did not do what He wanteddone, they were not sent by Christ. Jesus didnot want His team members to be deceived intobecoming members of the wrong team!Christ concluded His special instructions tothe disciples with an analogy. It is found in

    Matthew 7:24-27. In it, Christ said that if thedisciples obeyed and practiced what He hadjust told them, they would endure the storms oflife just as a house built on a sturdy, rockfoundation endures physical floods.

    A LESSON OF AUTHORITYAfter Christ finished His instructions to His

    disciples, He entered the city of Capernaum.While He was there, certain Jewish eldersapproached Him about going to the house of aRoman centurion (a military officer whocommanded 100 soldiers) to heal his dyingservant (Luke 7:1-10). The Jewish eldersexplained that this centurion treated the Jewskindly and had built a synagogue for them andwas worthy of having his servant healed.Christ proceeded to the centurion's house, buta short way from the house, some friends of thecenturion met Him with a message from him:"Lord, I am not worthy that you should comeunder my roof: but speak the word only, and myservant shall be healed. For I am a man underauthority, having soldiers under me: I say to thisman, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another 'Come,'and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' andhe does it" (Matthew 8:8-9).Jesus Christ marvelled at the faith andunderstanding of authority which this man10

    demonstrated (Luke 7:9). The centurion knethat Christ had the power and authorityheal. He knew that Christ only had to say thword, and the servant would be healed. Thcenturion always did what those in authoriover him said, and those under him in authorialways did what he said.The centurion's experience with authoritywsuch that when one in authority commandesomething, it was always done. Therefore, hknew that his servant would be healed if Chri

    said so. The centurion's confidence anassurance that his servant would be healedcalledfaith (Hebrews 11:1).

    WORKS PROVE MESSIAHSHIPShortly after Christ healed the centurion

    servant, He raised a dead man back to physiclife again. News of this amazing miracle sprearapidly throughout the region (Luke 7:11-17The disciples of John the Baptist, afthearing the exciting news of the resurrectionthe dead person, went to John who wasprison. After they told him the news, hwondered whether this Jesus of Nazareth thementioned was the same person whom hbaptized earlier and whom he knew to be th

    Son of God (Matthew 3:13-17; Mark 1:9-1Luke 3:21-22; John 1:29-34).To learn the truth of the matter, John setwo of his disciples to Jesus in Galilee. Upomeeting Christ, they explained that John thBaptist wanted to know whether He was thSavior and Messiah that was to come,

    whether they needed to look elsewhere for Hi(Matthew 11 :2-3; Luke 7:18-20).Jesus did not respond verbally right awaRather, He first performed many miracleshealing in their presence. Then He replie"Return to John and tell him what you havseen and heard: that the blind now see, thlame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the dehear, the dead are raised back to life and thpoor have the Gospel of the Kingdom of Gopreached to them. And blessed is he who is noffended because of me" (Luke 7:21-23).

  • 7/28/2019 l8_05_w

    11/12

    Notice that Christ did not respond: "I surem the Messiah!" Rather, He directed theirttention to the works, or fruits, of His

    the only true test of whether He washe Messiah or just another false prophet7:15-20).

    After John's disciples departed, Jesus Christplained to the people that John the Baptists more than a prophet. He was that

    messenger who was prophesied to prepare theay for Christ's first coming (Malachi 3:1).esus added that there was no human greater

    John the Baptist (Luke 7:24-28).Jesus continued to explain that many of thepublicans (tax collectors) and common people

    ccepted John and were baptized. But theharisees and lawyers (people who werepposed to know and understand the laws ofrejected John and were not baptized.Because John the Baptist and Jesus Christ

    id not conform to the religious ways and ideasf the Pharisees, the Pharisees brought falseaccusations against them. They accused Johnf being possessed by a demon and accusedesus of being a drunkard and a glutton (Luke7:29-34; Matthew 11:18-19). Christ remindedthem that the wisdom of His way would beproven right by the results of it, just as their

    would show that their way was wrongLuke 7:35).
