Sermon Summary

The Faith that Speaks Even After Death

(He11:4)

God is living.

His existence is living, and

His Word is also living (He4:14; 1Pe1:23).

Faith is possessing living faith, and

The life of this faith is putting effort to leave behind faith.

While dead man does not speak

The will of the dead continues to stay alive so

Those who heard it try to fulfill their wish, especially that of their king, parents or the fallen soldiers.

The Bible is comprised of the Old Testament and the New Testament:

The Old Testament is when the will of the one who made is still alive,

While the New Testament is the will fulfilled after the death of the one who made it (He9:6).

By faith, Abel still speaks, even though he is dead (He11:4) for

His blood cried out from the ground since

He was killed by his own brother without any witness (Ge4:10).

By faith, Moses kept the Passover and the application of blood

So that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel (Ex12:11; He11:28),

Because of which tens of thousands lambs died silently the same night (Ex12:3-4).

By faith, the Israelites kept the Passover regulation of shedding blood for generations

In the sanctuary chosen as a dwelling for the name of the Lord God (Dt16:1-2) since

That was where their prayers reached heaven (2Ch30:27).

Jesus said, "Destroy this temple and I will raise it again in three days (Jn2:19), because

Through the death and the resurrection of the temple of His body,

He would fulfill the first covenant that was made with the blood of animals (Ex24:8) and

Establish a new covenant with His own blood (He9:15-17) for

He came as the Lamb of God (Jn1:29), the Passover Lamb (1Co5:7)

To shed His blood for the forgiveness of sins for men (Mt26:26).

As He died, Jesus said, "It is finished (Jn19:30), declaring that He:

1) Testified that the Word of the Father is living (Jn10:18; 1Pe1:23);

2) Through His death as Adam proved that the words of the devil were lies (Ge2:27, 3:4-5); and

3) In place of men died silently so that His blood would speak even after His death (Is53:7; Jn11:25-26).

His resurrection testified that faith speaks even after death (Lk23:46).

The Holy Spirit who came in the name Yeshua to believers

Speaks the outcry of His blood that speaks even after death (Jn14:26).

Therefore, the Christian opens his mouth to speak the outcry of His blood to save souls.

His faith is testified by his offering that cries out even after death (He11:4) and

The prayers of his lifetime are surely fulfilled even after he dies, as

He hopes to commit his spirit to the Father when he leaves this world.

O Lord,

The faith that speaks even after death!

The offering that speaks even after death!

Let me not be greedy for the sake of my soul, my offspring, and the offspring of my faith.

Let my faith, my offering and my prayers cry out while I am alive! Amen.
