Tonights Message: There are times that we just have to walk alone with the Lord and bear our own burdens.PHI 3:17; LAM 3:21-28
PHI 3:16 – stoicheo = to walk in the sense of marching.
Walk – pres/act/part of peripateo (peripatounos) = to walk, to live, to progress, to conduct oneself.
MAR 14:50 And they all left Him and fled.
2TI 4:16 At my first defense no one supported me, but all deserted me; may it not be counted against them.
GAL 6:5 For each one shall bear his own load.
Turn to LAM 3:21
ECC 3:4 “There is a time to weep, and a time to laugh. There is a time to mourn, and a time to dance.”
1. Do not resent them.
2. Do not hate them.
3. Do not impose the heavy burden of your sorrow and grief on them.
Christian virtue does weep with those who weep, and rejoices with those who rejoice, ROM 12:15.
1CO 12:26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
There comes a time when those who weep should be as those who did not weep, 1CO 7:30.
PSA 119:67 Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Thy word.
HEB 5:8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered.
PSA 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
Turn to PHI 3:17
Pres/act/part of peripateo – to walk, to live, to progress, and to conduct oneself.
The present tense is the present tense of duration. It denotes what has been happening in the past and continues into the present time.
Active voice – PVTD on the part of the pastor who produces the action of the verb, and the participle is circumstantial.
“according to” the comparative adverb kathos = just as.
“you have” – present active indicative from the verb echo – echete.
2TI 4:2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction.
hemas – “us” this is prophetic, because Timothy is included here.
Timothy was involved in some revisionism in Ephesus – First Timothy.
Timothy went all the way from revisionism to supergrace in Second Timothy.
As a supergrace believer in Second Timothy, he also challenges his congregation to advance to ultra-supergrace.
tupon – an example, a pattern a model.
