Ecc 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Ecc 3:12 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.

Ecc 3:13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

Ecc 3:14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.

Ecc 3:15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
Ecc 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Ecc 3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

Ecc 3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

Ecc 3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

Ecc 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

Ecc 3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

Ecc 3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

Ecc 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
Jn 7:3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

Jn 7:4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

Jn 7:5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.

Jn 7:6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

Jn 7:7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

Jn 7:8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come.

Jn 7:9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

Jn 7:10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

Jn 7:11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

Jn 7:12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.

Jn 7:13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

Jn 7:14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

Jn 7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

Jn 7:16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

Jn 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.

Jn 7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Mt 13:55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
Acts 3:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

Ec 3:11 Il fait toute chose belle en son temps ; quoiqu'il ait mis dans leur cœur [le sentiment] de l'éternité, ils ne parviennent cependant pas à comprendre l'œuvre que Dieu fait, du commencement à la fin.

Ec 3:12 Je comprends qu'ils n'ont d'autre bien que de se réjouir, et de s'accorder du bien-être durant leur vie ;

Ec 3:13 et que, quand tel homme mange et boit et goûte des jouissances tout en travaillant, c'est aussi là un don de Dieu.

Ec 3:14 Je comprends que tout ce que Dieu opère est éternel ; il n'y a rien à y ajouter, et rien à en retrancher, et Dieu opère afin qu'on le craigne.

Ec 3:15 Ce qui est, a été jadis ; et ce qui est à venir, a été jadis ; et Dieu reproduit ce qui est passé.
Ec 3:1 Toute chose a son temps, et toute affaire son moment a sous le ciel.

Ec 3:2 Il est un temps pour naître, et un temps pour mourir ; il est un temps pour planter, et un temps pour arracher les plants ;

Ec 3:3 il est un temps pour tuer, et un temps pour guérir ; il est un temps pour démolir, et un temps pour édifier ;

Ec 3:4 il est un temps pour pleurer, et un temps pour rire ; il est un temps pour se frapper la poitrine, et un temps pour danser ;

Ec 3:5 il est un temps pour jeter les pierres, et un temps pour ramasser les pierres ; il est un temps pour embrasser, et un temps pour s'abstenir d'embrasser ;

Ec 3:6 il est un temps pour chercher, et un temps pour laisser perdre ; il est un temps pour conserver, et un temps pour se défaire ;

Ec 3:7 il est un temps pour déchirer, et un temps pour coudre ; il est un temps pour se taire, et un temps pour parler ;

Ec 3:8 il est un temps pour aimer, et un temps pour haïr ; il est un temps de guerre, et un temps de paix.
Jn 7:3 ses frères donc lui dirent : « Sors d'ici, et viens en Judée, afin que tes disciples aussi voient les œuvres que tu fais ;

Jn 7:4 car personne ne fait en cachette ce qu'il cherche en même temps à rendre public ; puisque tu fais ces choses, manifeste-toi toi-même au monde. »

Jn 7:5 En effet pas même ses frères ne croyaient en lui.

Jn 7:6 Jésus leur dit donc : « Mon temps n'est pas encore venu, mais votre temps est toujours venu ;

Jn 7:7 le monde ne peut vous haïr, mais il me hait parce que je témoigne contre lui que ses œuvres sont mauvaises ;

Jn 7:8 pour vous, montez à la fête ; quant à moi, je ne monte pas encore à cette fête, parce que mon temps n'est pas encore accompli. »

Jn 7:9 Or, après leur avoir ainsi parlé, il restait en Galilée.

Jn 7:10 Mais, lorsque ses frères furent montés à la fête, alors lui-même y monta aussi, non pas ouvertement, mais comme en cachette.

Jn 7:11 Les Juifs donc le cherchaient dans la fête et disaient : « Où est-il ? »

Jn 7:12 Et il y avait parmi la foule un grand murmure à son sujet ; tandis que les uns disaient : « Il est homme de bien, d'autres disaient : « Non ; mais il égare la foule. »

Jn 7:13 Cependant personne ne parlait librement de lui par crainte des Juifs.

Jn 7:14 Or, comme on était déjà vers le milieu de la fête, Jésus monta au temple, et il enseignait.

Jn 7:15 Les Juifs donc s'en émerveillaient, et disaient : « Comment celui-ci connaît-il les lettres, sans les avoir étudiées ? »

Jn 7:16 Jésus leur répliqua donc : « Ma doctrine n'est pas la mienne, mais celle de Celui qui m'a envoyé ;

Jn 7:17 si quelqu'un veut faire Sa volonté, il connaîtra, quant à ma doctrine, si elle vient de Dieu, ou si je parle de mon chef.

Jn 7:18 Celui qui parle de son chef recherche sa propre gloire ; mais celui qui recherche la gloire de celui qui l'a envoyé, celui-là est véridique, et il n'y a pas d'injustice en lui.

Jn 7:5 Lebo ani jeho bratia neverili v neho.

Jn 7:6 Vtedy im povedal Ježiš: Môj čas nie je ešte tu, ale váš čas je vždycky hotový.

Jn 7:11 Vtedy ho hľadali Židia v ten sviatok a hovorili: Kdeže je tamten?

Jn 7:12 A bolo mnoho vravy o ňom v zástupoch, a jedni hovorili, že je dobrý, a druhí hovorili: Nie, ale zvádza zástup.

Jn 7:13 Ale nikto nehovoril o ňom verejne, zo strachu pred Židmi.

Jn 7:14 A keď už bolo stred sviatku, odišiel Ježiš hore do chrámu a učil.

Jn 7:15 Vtedy sa divili Židia a hovorili: Jako zná tento písma, keď sa neučil?

Jn 7:16 Na tom im odpovedal Ježiš a riekol: Moje učenie nie je moje, ale toho, ktorý ma poslal.

Detailed Summary

Detailed Summary of Sermon

Introduction: Brother Frank greets the congregation and expresses gratitude for their presence, acknowledging that it is a time of vacation for many. He references Lied 535, emphasizing the call to the Lord's wedding feast and the anticipation of His return.

Scripture Reading and Reflection: The sermon begins with readings from Prediger 3, verses 11, 14, and 15, which speak to God's perfect timing and the eternal validity of His actions. Brother Frank emphasizes that nothing can be added to or taken away from God's work, and this should inspire reverence. He connects these verses to the idea that everything God has spoken remains valid, and humans cannot alter it.

Main Themes and Points:

Trusting God's Timing:
- Brother Frank introduces the central theme of trusting in God's timing, contrasting it with human impatience. He references Johannes 7, where Jesus states, "My time is not yet here."
- He explains that while humans always feel time is opportune, God's timing is specific and must be awaited. Only when God's hour arrives do things fall into place.
Obedience to God's Word:
- Brother Frank stresses the importance of obedience to God's word, referencing Matthäus 13:55 regarding Jesus's brothers and sisters. He notes that even those close to Jesus did not initially believe in Him.
- He emphasizes that those who are of God recognize what is sent by God, regardless of outward appearances.
Seeking God's Glory:
- Brother Frank contrasts seeking one's own glory with seeking the glory of the one who sent him, noting that the latter is truthful and without injustice. He observes that those who speak from themselves seek their own honor, while those who speak from God become part of the divine program.
The Hour of God:
- Brother Frank explains that when the hour of God comes, everything aligns—the people, circumstances, the word of promise, and the message. He illustrates this with examples from the Old Testament, such as God's promise to Abraham.
- He reiterates that God's plan will be executed without delay when the time is right, and believers will be drawn into it.
The Prophet Like Moses:
- Brother Frank references Apg 3:21-23, connecting Jesus to the prophet like Moses, emphasizing the need to listen to everything he says. He warns that those who do not listen will be cut off.
Discerning Divine Teaching:
- Brother Frank emphasizes that willingness to do God's will is key to discerning whether a teaching comes from God. He asserts that every discussion is superfluous except for the question of whether one is ready to do God's will.
Enduring Hardship and Misunderstanding:
- Brother Frank acknowledges that the path with God can be lonely, steep, and narrow. He recounts instances where Jesus was misunderstood and faced conflicting opinions, as described in Johannes 7.

Illustrations and Examples:

Brother Frank shares a letter from Kenia, expressing gratitude for his visit and reporting 228 new souls born into the kingdom since the campaign.
He recounts attending a conference in the USA where he addressed white-clad female evangelists, reminding them of their role according to scripture.
He mentions the funeral of Bruder Laumers, noting the positive testimony given by his employer.
He references Bruder Branham, highlighting that even he had to wait for God's revelation and that believers should adhere to the message given for their time.

Conclusion: Brother Frank concludes by encouraging the congregation to trust in God's plan and timing, even when faced with hardship and misunderstanding. He reiterates that God's word and Spirit are at work, and believers should remain in step with God, awaiting His hour. He closes with a prayer, thanking God for His word, guidance, and the assurance that He will bring His plan to completion.

LESSONS – gemini-2.0-flash-001

God's Timing

Takeaway: Everything happens in God's perfect timing, and we must trust and wait for His appointed hour.

Reasoning: Brother Frank emphasizes that both Prediger 3 and Johannes 7 highlight the importance of recognizing and submitting to God's timing. Just as Jesus waited for His hour, we must also be patient and allow God to orchestrate events according to His plan.

Discerning God's Will

Takeaway: To understand God's teachings, one must be willing to do His will.

Reasoning: Brother Frank explains that understanding and recognizing divine teaching requires a willingness to align oneself with God's will. This alignment allows believers to discern whether a teaching originates from God or from human sources.

The Importance of God's Word

Takeaway: The Word of God is paramount, and believers should adhere to it, not seeking their own glory but God's.

Reasoning: Brother Frank stresses that the essence lies not in the vessel (the speaker or the individual) but in the divine seed—the Word of God—that is carried. Believers are called to honor God's Word, remaining steadfast and not being swayed by human opinions or seeking personal recognition.

Remaining Steadfast in Faith

Takeaway: Believers should remain steadfast in their faith, even when facing misunderstandings or differing opinions.

Reasoning: Brother Frank notes that throughout history, messengers of God have faced mixed reactions, with some accepting and others rejecting their message. Despite these challenges, believers must remain grounded in God's Word and trust in His plan.

The Prophet Like Moses

Takeaway: Believers are called to listen to the prophet like Moses, obeying all that he commands.

Reasoning: Brother Frank references Apg 3:21-23, emphasizing the importance of heeding the words of the prophet like Moses (Jesus). Obedience to this prophet is crucial, and failure to listen will result in being cut off from the people.
