Matthew 16:16-19 (The Message)

16:16 Simon Peter said, "You're the Christ, the Messiah, the Son of the living God."

16:17 Jesus came back, "God bless you, Simon, son of Jonah! You didn't get that answer out of books or from teachers. My Father in heaven, God himself, let you in on this secret of who I really am.

16:18 And now I'm going to tell you who you are, really are. You are Peter, a rock. This is the rock on which I will put together my church, a church so expansive with energy that not even the gates of hell will be able to keep it out.

16:19 "And that's not all. You will have complete and free access to God's kingdom, keys to open any and every door: no more barriers between heaven and earth, earth and heaven. A yes on earth is yes in heaven. A no on earth is no in heaven."

VIII. MAIN BODY:

A. Full of faith

"According to your faith and trust and reliance [on the power invested in Me] be it done to you; And their eyes were opened."

Proverbs 19:2 (Amplified Bible)

19:2 Desire without knowledge is not good, and to be overhasty is to sin and miss the mark.

Proverbs 19:2 (New International Version)

19:2 It is not good to have zeal without knowledge, nor to be hasty and miss the way.

Romans 10:17 (Amplified Bible)

10:17 So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself).

There's no problem with being full of faith but with zeal without knowledge. That's why me and my family are gathering up seminars upon seminars regarding bible lessons, why are we doing that? Because we want to gain more knowledge as basis and foundation of our zeal of service for the LORD. Let your faith be based on the WORD of GOD and upon application of it in your life. Let all our faith be based on the WORD, let all our zeal be motivated by love and knowledge of the LORD and His WORD.

Illustration:

wise man vs foolish man

Matthew 7:24-27 (Amplified Bible)

7:24 So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock.

7:25 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

7:26 And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand.

7:27 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great and complete was the fall of it.

B. Yet disobeys

"And Jesus earnestly and sternly charged them, See that you let no one know about this. But they went off and blazed and spread His fame abroad throughout that whole district."

1 Samuel 15:22 (Amplified Bible)

15:22 Samuel said, Has the Lord as great a delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

These are the people in the bible that is full of faith yet disobedient:

1. leper

Mark 1:42-45 (Amplified Bible)

1:42 And at once the leprosy [completely] left him and he was made clean [by being healed].

1:43 And Jesus charged him sternly (sharply and threateningly, and with earnest admonition) and [acting with deep feeling thrust him forth and] sent him away at once,

1:44 And said to him, See that you tell nothing [of this] to anyone; but begone, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your purification what Moses commanded, as a proof (an evidence and witness) to the people [that you are really healed].

1:45 But he went out and began to talk so freely about it and blaze abroad the news [spreading it everywhere] that [Jesus] could no longer openly go into a town but was outside in [lonely] desert places. But the people kept on coming to Him from all sides and every quarter.

2. deaf and mute

Mark 7:32-36 (Amplified Bible)

7:32 And they brought to Him a man who was deaf and had difficulty in speaking, and they begged Jesus to place His hand upon him.

7:33 And taking him aside from the crowd [privately], He thrust His fingers into the man’s ears and spat and touched his tongue;

7:34 And looking up to heaven, He sighed as He said, Ephphatha, which means, Be opened!

7:35 And his ears were opened, his tongue was loosed, and he began to speak distinctly and as he should.

7:36 And Jesus [in His own interest] admonished and ordered them sternly and expressly to tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more zealously they proclaimed it.

Remember not to only have zeal but faith based on knowledge. Acquire knowledge of the bible, more knowledge the better it will be for you. Let your actions and works for the LORD be motivated by faith and love not of zeal without knowledge.

James 2:14 (Amplified Bible)

2:14 What is the use (profit), my brethren, for anyone to profess to have faith if he has no [good] works [to show for it]? Can [such] faith save [his soul]?

James 2:17-18 (Amplified Bible)

2:17 So also faith, if it does not have works (deeds and actions of obedience to back it up), by itself is destitute of power (inoperative, dead).

2:18 But someone will say [to you then], You [say you] have faith, and I have [good] works. Now you show me your [alleged] faith apart from any [good] works [if you can], and I by [good] works [of obedience] will show you my faith.

Galatians 5:6 (Amplified Bible)

5:6 For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love.

IX. CONCLUSION:

Why this man have disobeyed even with faith? Because, simply he has faith to be healed, but not faith to follow JESUS. He has selfish agenda for himself just getting physical benefit, not after the spiritual. We need faith in JESUS all in all.

Romans 3:26 (Amplified Bible)

3:26 It was to demonstrate and prove at the present time (in the now season) that He Himself is righteous and that He justifies and accepts as righteous him who has [true] faith in Jesus.

- 5,000 men who have been fed by JESUS:

John 6:26-27 (Amplified Bible)

6:26 Jesus answered them, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, you have been searching for Me, not because you saw the miracles and signs but because you were fed with the loaves and were filled and satisfied.

6:27 Stop toiling and doing and producing for the food that perishes and decomposes [in the using], but strive and work and produce rather for the [lasting] food which endures [continually] unto life eternal; the Son of Man will give (furnish) you that, for God the Father has authorized and certified Him and put His seal of endorsement upon Him.

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS, for You have given us Your faith activated, energized, expressed, and working through love, and You have increased our faith by hearing and hearing Your WORDS.
