Notes From Expect More NL Retreat

From 9/2006 Pastor Jason Kim

- Buddhists may have more faith, devotion but it's not how much faith you have, but IN WHOM. Matt 17:20 says that faith of a mustard seed can move mountains. He can take what little we have and multiply. If you keep it yourself, it'll stay what little it is.

- John 6:1-21 Feeding of 5k (the only miracle other than resurrection found in all 4 gospels) 

- HEAVEN: the first two change at the 2nd Coming
(1) 1st heaven - Isaiah 55:9 atmospheric heaven
(2) 2nd heaven - Gen 1 planetary heaven
(3) 3rd heaven - 2 Cor 12:2 divine heaven

- Lord vs LORD 
Lord = Adonai (the sovereign one, the king of kings)
LORD = Yahweh (God's essential nature)
           = Jehovah (German spelling of Yahweh since Y=J in German)
           = Hebrew no punctuation so use repetition instead to emphasize like truly truly or holy holy holy
                           no vowels hence YHWH

- The trauma of holiness / holy fright 
It humiliates us, humbles us, breaks us
Peter says I am a sinner (after Jesus fills net w/ fish)
Isaiah says I'm a man w/ unclean lips

- Some code
kevin.phileo(connie);  /* love of loyalty, friendship */
kevin.agape(connie);
//kevin.eros(connie);  /* commented out until marriage */
