Go Forth to the World with the Heart of Spirit - 2012 Leadership Seminar Held under the Theme of "Spirit"
Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee led the 2012 Leadership Seminar at Vivaldi Park of Daemyung Resort and by this seminar many believers were encouraged to quickly enter into the level of spirit and whole spirit. The believers at the seminar were filled with a longing heart for spirit taking picture of various colors of aurora lights with their mobile phones.
With the Canaan Sanctuary Era ahead, Manmin Central Church held the 2012 Leadership Seminar from July 2 to 4 in Vivaldi Park of Daemyung Resort in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province.
On July 2 and 3, church members filled the Diamond Hall and other nine smaller auditoriums. Dr. Jaerock Lee preached the message to more than 5,000 church workers and members under the title of "Spirit" taken from John 4:24.
This seminar was attended not only by district, sub-district, and cell leaders but also by many members who longed for spirit and came all the way from many areas in Korea including Seoul, Daejeon, Masan, Pusan, Gwangju, and Jeju Island and overseas countries like Kenya, DR Congo, Japan, China, Taiwan, Singapore, India, the Philippines, and Thailand.
On the first day, in his message Dr. Lee said when we achieve the heart of spirit we can enjoy happiness, good health, and wealth without suffering from diseases, poverty, disaster, and worries. He also said pastors can achieve the revival of the church if they reach the level of spirit.
Before getting to the point, he checked if the attendees have cast off nine of the attributes that they have to get rid of to stand on the rock of faith: hot-temper; hard-feeling; hatred, jealousy, and enviousness; lying hearts; judgment; heart of changing; adulterous mind; greed, selfish-motives, and undue desire; and betrayal.
On the second day, he explained the heart of spirit by comparing goodness, love, faith, and hope of spirit with those of the flesh. Dr. Lee said, "The fleshly heart always has limitation even if it seems to show faith, but the heart of spirit relies on God with faith until the end. The fleshly heart loves those who do something worthy to receive love, but the spiritual love doesn't want any reward and it gives love even to those who do harm."
He talked about the process of men of spirit achieving the heart of whole spirit. He said, "Although you come into spirit you need to go through the process of transforming the trace of the flesh, which refers to knowledge, experience, nature, and personality. In other words, when they fill up deficiency and shortage of love, spiritual knowledge, and perfect goodness, even their personality can be transformed in a good way and resemble the Lord's. So they can be used as God's great tool."
At the end of the seminar, he took five biblical figures for examples. Among them was Elijah who showed that God is alive by keeping his composure even in the confrontation with 850 false prophets because his weak and indecisive personality had been changed into calm and delicate personality.
In the meantime, in the afternoon of the first day, the Fullness of the Spirit Prayer Meeting was held with Mrs. Boknim Lee, President of Manmin Prayer Center. Attendees took the replica of a cross and passed through that of the pearl gate of New Jerusalem. Love for the Lord and hope for Heaven overflew in them.
On the second day, in the morning, through the message of Pastor Heejin Lee, they checked their measure of faith and engraved the love and sacrifice of the shepherd who led them to the level of spirit.
At this seminar, it is expected that not only district, sub-district, and cell leaders who have taken care of the souls but also many other workers and church members who attended the seminar with a longing heart will possess the heart of spirit and press on toward the world evangelization and the city of New Jerusalem.
