The Spirit of Truth; September 6, 2023

Posted on September 7, 2023 by jgarrott

John 16:12-13 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.

This is actually a continuation of what I wrote on yesterday, though there is a whole chapter in between. We don’t have to worry about anything the Holy Spirit shows us or speaks to us, because Jesus explicitly calls Him the Spirit of Truth. That is in stark contrast to the devil and his demons, since Jesus labeled him as “a liar and the father of lies.” (John 8:44) One thing worth noticing here is that God knows what we can handle and what we can’t, and He acts accordingly. When Jesus was saying this, Peter couldn’t have handled being told, “You will watch your wife be crucified, and then you will be crucified upside down,” even though that would have been true. A young child can’t absorb the truth that they’re going to have to work their butt off to provide for their family. God tells us what we need to know when we need to know it, and that should be enough for us. A major problem today is that those who fancy themselves as elites put themselves in the place of God, dolling out what they want the public to hear and hiding other things. Too bad for them, “There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.” (Matthew 10:26) They aren’t operating in our genuine best interest, the way God is. Fortunately for us, many things are being brought out into the open these days, and corruption is being exposed. What Jesus was talking about here, however, is deeper than that, and touches on God’s plans for us and for the universe. Not all prophecy is predictive, certainly, but God does indeed reveal to His children things He is going to do, and we need to be paying attention. It’s not wise to demand to know, but asking to be clued in with whatever we need to know is never a bad idea.

I have been used in prophecy a few times, but that is not a major part of my job description. I have known groups that in my view put too much emphasis on personal prophecy, and were quite controlling as a result. For myself, my greatest interest is in knowing more of the truth about God and my relationship with Him. Even there, God knows how much I can handle, and He has led me along over the years to be able to grasp more. I sometimes find when I am talking to people about God that my words seem meaningless to them, and I realize that they aren’t yet able to take in the truth in question. That doesn’t mean I’m to stop speaking it in love, but it does mean that I’m dependent on Holy Spirit to breathe it into people’s minds and hearts. After all, since God is infinite, there is an infinite supply of truth about Him for Him to reveal to us!

Father, thank You for this reminder. Holy Spirit, thank You for leading me into truth as I am ready and able to receive it. Help me be a faithful steward of Your truth, so that many may be set free for their salvation, (John 8:32) for the glory of God. Thank You. Hallelujah!

Learning from Holy Spirit; September 5, 2023

Posted on September 6, 2023 by jgarrott

John 14:26 “But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.”

Modern Pentecostals and Charismatics are quick to think of the Holy Spirit in terms of power and spiritual gifts, but here Jesus is expressing another essential function. When you think about it, it is really rather remarkable that John in particular was able to remember so much of Jesus’ teaching to put it down on paper. Linguistic analysis shows that the other Gospel writers used collections of Jesus’ teachings that doubtless circulated from soon after Pentecost, if not from even before the crucifixion, but John obviously did not, and he wrote decades after the others. However, that does not make what he wrote any less reliable, because of precisely what he quotes Jesus as saying here. Holy Spirit (to refer to Him as the Person He undoubtedly is) is the ultimate Teacher. It is helpful to learn about the geography, customs, and culture of when the Bible was written, but other than that, the ultimate theological education comes from the Scriptures and Holy Spirit. We need to “attend class” every day, with the Bible as our textbook and Holy Spirit as the teacher. The better we internalize the Scripture, the more material Holy Spirit has to work with. However, just memorizing the text doesn’t cut it; we need to learn to apply it. Daily living is the practicum, but we need the classroom hours in order to know what to do. Rather than a subject like Philosophy, it’s much more like Music Theory or even Auto Mechanics. If we aren’t doing it, we won’t really grasp it. However, if our heart is in the right place, Holy Spirit is ready and waiting to coach us in the details, as well as teach us the principles.

Having been a teacher for the past 42 years, this really clicks with me. Everything I have taught has required practice on the part of my students for it to be a useful part of their repertoire. Even with something as mundane as English Conversation, I have told my students consistently, “If you don’t speak you can’t speak.” Being afraid to make mistakes is no way to learn! In deeper subjects, I have taught Medical English to nurses and therapists, and Vocal Production and Pronunciation to speech therapists. Those students all had Practicums to deal with after my classes, and some of them wanted to come back to class after their experiences in the practicum! They didn’t grasp the importance of what I was teaching them until they encountered actual patients. I have experienced the same thing myself many times, as I have had to come back to the Word and to Holy Spirit for “refresher sessions” time and time again. I am grateful for how much of the Word is in my heart and mind, but I am very aware that I need more, and more skill in applying it. However, Holy Spirit is always available to give me the further teaching and coaching I need, so I need to stay in constant communication with Him.

Father, thank You for this clear exposition. Help me be effective in sharing it with people on Sunday. May I be an effective “teaching assistant” for Holy Spirit so that all the believers may grow in knowing and applying Your Word and Your will, for Your glory. Thank You. Praise God!

Trusting God; September 4, 2023

Posted on September 5, 2023 by jgarrott

John 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me.”

After the Passover supper and Judas leaves, Jesus starts teaching His closest disciples in what is called the Upper Room Discourse. There is no comparable passage in the whole Bible, where God is gently, patiently, and clearly explaining spiritual reality. That Jesus is the Son of God is a settled, accepted reality here; there is no “beating around the bush.” The content is things Jesus wanted to communicate before His crucifixion, and this is His last chance for that. In this verse He expresses the necessary foundation for receiving all He has to say. If our hearts are stirred up, our minds aren’t going to be very receptive. Some translations use “trust” here, and some “believe.” I don’t have the Greek here for confirmation, but they are certainly intertwined concepts. Jesus has taught that we aren’t to be anxious all along, famously in Matthew 6 and in various other places as well, but this feels a little different. This isn’t a matter of being worried about supply, but of being uncertain about what is going to happen. The events of the next three days were certainly going to be extremely upsetting to the disciples, and Jesus was trying to prepare them. The thing is, we all face uncertainty, actually even more than we realize, because we cannot control the actions of the people around us, much less weather or geologic activity. Japan is famous for natural disasters, but the Internet is filled with reports of such things from all over the world. Sadly, some parts of America are becoming famous for human disasters, with muggings, drive-by shootings and the like. If we focus on such things and their very real possibility, our hearts will be troubled indeed. Jesus is saying, very plainly and clearly, “Don’t do that.” God has given us the ability to imagine, and it is a good gift, like everything God gives us. (James 1:17) However, like everything else, it can be misused. We are all too adept at letting “what if” scenarios play over in our minds. We need to live by faith, just as Paul said too. (2 Corinthians 5:7) Only then will we avoid the “heart troubles” the devil wants to dump on us.

This is remarkably timely, because I am having some medical symptoms that are disturbing, and I don’t currently have any connection to an appropriate doctor for them. I do, however, have a friend who is retired from that specialty, and I will call him this morning to get his recommendation of where to go. The point for me, however, is to not let my heart be troubled, playing “what if” games, but to trust God and my Lord Jesus, because as He told Jeremiah, His plans for me are to prosper me and not harm me. (Jeremiah 29:11) All sorts of things are changing around me, and in me for that matter, but my God will never change, and I just need to rest in that assurance.

Father, thank You for this reminder. Thank You also for the circumstances that make it so timely. You long ago told me to rest, relax, and rejoice in You, and I’m still learning to do that. Help me keep going through this training session, for Your glory. Thank You. Praise God!

Accepting Christ; September 3, 2023

Posted on September 4, 2023 by jgarrott

John 13:20 “I tell you the truth, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.”

This verse is at the same time challenging, encouraging, and frustrating for anyone who is actively involved in evangelism. It all hinges on what Jesus meant by “accepts” here. We set up all sorts of formulas for how people are saved, how they pass from death to life, but on the face of it, this blows all of that out of the water. We have the famous formula in Romans, “If you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) This seems even more simple than that! We put all sorts of doctrinal barriers in people’s way, when God “wants all men to be saved and to come to a know­ledge of the truth.” (1 Timothy 2:4) We need to be careful we don’t fall into a simplistic, “Into bliss and out of blister” picture of salvation, (as one of my grandfathers expressed it) but we aren’t to complicate it unnecessarily. Jesus certainly doesn’t mean something casual, but we definitely need to let Him define in each case just what acceptance means. We tend to think of Christians in terms of church members, but there are manifestly some church members who have never made Jesus their Lord, and there are some outside the organized church whom the Lord counts as His. We are back to needing to be faithful to share the Good News of salvation with all who will hear, and leaving the rest in God’s hands.

This is an especially acute issue for me since I serve in Japan, which has by far the lowest “rate of return” of anywhere in the world when it comes to evangelism. As I have written before, my father once prostrated himself on the floor and cried out, “God, if I’m standing in the way of revival in Japan, then take me out of the way!” I understand and empathize with him completely! We have been in Omura for fully 42 years now, since I arrived in September, 1981. Some people have accepted the Gospel and been baptized and a few have gone through the motions and just gotten wet, but not so many total. However, there have been many who have seemed to genuinely accept us, which is not a small thing in this xenophobic culture. Given this verse, I cannot say definitively what their eternal destiny is. I am not to dilute the Gospel in any way, but neither am I to push people away. Jesus Himself accepted the people who came to Him, but He also said some very strong things that caused many to drop away, as came up in the readings a few days ago. I am not to sugar-coat the Gospel, but neither am I to set barriers in people’s way. All I can do is be faithful, and pray that the results will be exactly as God desired, for His glory.

Father, thank You for this reminder. You know the people I’m thinking of right now. I pray that acceptance would blossom to full commitment leading to active discipleship, building up the Body of Christ for Your glory. Thank You. Hallelujah!

What We Love; September 2, 2023

Posted on September 3, 2023 by jgarrott

John 12:43 For they loved praise from men more than praise from God.

This is a tragic statement, yet it is all too true so often, not just for the Jewish leaders back then but even for us today. The contrast between the praise of God and the praise of men is easy to express and understand, but loving anything more than we love God is a tragic waste. Physical sensations take that place for vast numbers of people, either the rush they get from drugs or alcohol or the pleasures of sex or even the rush of danger. However, all those things are momentary, and God is eternal. On a material level, it’s like comparing a marshmallow and a bar of gold. Likewise, many people love having power over others, as we see in politicians and dictators all the time, and the simple allure of fame traps many. That last factor has been one of the most destructive things about the Internet, with people doing almost anything to gain “friends” or “followers.” That’s exactly what John is talking about here. We need to be honest in examining ourselves to see what we love, and repent of placing anything ahead of God. It’s certainly not that we aren’t to love anything but God; Jesus explicitly commanded us to love each other. Also, pleasurable things aren’t in themselves evil, for the most part. God in His mercy created us to be able to enjoy all sorts of things. The problem comes when we place anything ahead of God, because that is idolatry, whether we realize it or not. That is one reason why it’s important to thank God for everything, because recognizing that what we enjoy comes from God, we keep Him in first place.

Of course this applies to me as much as it does to anyone else. I am deeply grateful for the wife God gave me over 54 years ago, and I love her to a degree that is actually an inspiration to quite a few people who know us. However, I must not love her more than I love God. Knowing that He created her for me and me for her helps me love Him more! Over the past almost 75 years I have loved many things, from photography to music to Krispy Kreme doughnuts, but all of those things are ephemeral compared to God. The question comes to me of which of the Greek words for love John used here, but that’s almost immaterial. I certainly don’t eros God, but my feelings for and commitment to Him must take precedence over any and every other thing in my life. He alone is worthy of that level of devotion.

Father, thank You for this reminder. Thank You for the various loves with which You have surrounded me, all of which, properly understood, express Your love for me. Help me indeed love You above and before everything else. Thank You. Praise God!

Our Goal; September 1, 2023

Posted on September 2, 2023 by jgarrott

John 12:26 “Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.”

This whole section is so loaded with deeply meaningful verses! I feel like I could preach for days on it. However, this verse expresses what I think is the ultimate goal of every true servant of God: being with Jesus. We can have all sorts of goals, and many are quite noble and worthwhile. However, once those goals are achieved, what then? This goal is eternal, just as Jesus is eternal. Not only that, the amazing thing about this goal is that it is achievable in part right now. As the song says, “Every day with Jesus is sweeter than the day before.” We can “be with Him” even as we go about our daily lives, however mundane they might seem. We are indeed “created to do good works which God has prepared in advance for us to do,” (Ephesians 2:10) but the doing isn’t as important as the being, the abiding. In the Upper Room Discourse Jesus talked a lot about abiding, our abiding in Him and His Word abiding in us and the like. One reason He did that was that we tend to lack stability. As it says so famously in Isaiah 53, we are like wandering sheep, failing to recognize our dependence on the Shepherd. The most marvelous thing about heaven is that we will indeed be with Jesus for eternity, with nothing to separate us.

I will never forget a taste I had of this several years ago. I was in a small prayer meeting with three brothers in Christ. We had been singing to the Lord together, and I don’t remember whether this was during the singing or the praying, but I felt such an overwhelming sense of joy that I was blown away. I quite literally said to the Lord in my heart, “If You have anything further for me to do here You had better back it off a little,” because I felt that my physical body would give up and I would be transferred straight to heaven. That experience gave me such an anticipation of heaven that I don’t think I’ll ever be afraid of physical death! It has caused me to respond to the death of other believers in a way that has surprised and even shocked others. The police thought I was weird, the way I acted after discovering one of the believers here had gone on to heaven, when I went to pick him up to bring him to the service. He was 82 and lived alone, and I knew he was delighted that the Lord had said it was time to come home. His body was stiff and cold, but I knew that he was experiencing inexpressible joy. (1 Peter 1:8) Even most of the Christians had trouble rejoicing for him. Our sorrow at separation would be much less if we understood better what it is to be with the Lord! To be honest, I don’t look forward to however long Cathy and I will be separated, whenever one of us goes first, but I have absolute assurance that such sorrow will be totally forgotten when we are together again with our Lord. Being with Jesus is the goal!

Father, thank You for this reminder. Thank You that I do enjoy life right now, but thank You especially that I know that what is to come will make all of this totally pale to insignificance. May I not just rejoice in Your plans for me, but be active in drawing others into Your plans for them, so that the plans of the devil may be defeated and many brought to salvation, for Your glory. Thank You. Hallelujah!

Sacrifice; August 31, 2023

Posted on September 1, 2023 by jgarrott

John 12:3 Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

This is of course a famous incident, but there are several things to think about here. Many people focus on the fact that Judas objected to this being done, because he wanted access to the money the nard would have brought, (verses 4-6) but that is focusing on negatives, which we are all too prone to do. It is far more edifying to focus on the fact that this probably represented Mary’s life savings, but her love for Jesus and her gratitude for His raising her brother from the dead made her more than willing to give it all. It is also worth noting that the whole house was filled with the aroma of the nard. Such love and devotion can’t really be hidden! When we are totally sold out for Jesus, everyone around us knows it. That connects with the third point, which is that in wiping His feet with her hair, in itself a rather self-abasing action, she was getting the aroma on herself as well, and probably carried the scent for quite a few days afterward. When we give ourselves totally to Christ it improves us more than we can realize. In this particular case I don’t think Mary was thinking about applying the nard to her hair as such, but rather of wiping Jesus’ feet. If she had just wanted to smell nice, applying a little at a time to strategic places on her body would have done the trick, as is usually done with perfumes of all sorts. Her own aroma was simply a byproduct of her devotion to Jesus, as it is for us.

I don’t know to what degree I’ve sacrificed for Jesus; He is the judge of that. I do know that there have been times when I have resented the sacrifices called for by the path the Lord had me on, and I’m not proud of that. Yesterday I got started on an autobiography/memoir. I don’t want that to be something to make people think well of me, but rather of my Lord who has been so gracious to me. Physical elements aside, I want my “aroma” to draw people to Him, knowing that He loves them and He is more than worth giving everything they have and are to Him. This past Sunday we sang, “All that I have, all that I am, all I will ever be, cannot repay this love-debt I owe; I surrender to Thee.” Since the first part of that song is undeniably true, I want the last part to be fully true as well.

Father, thank You for all that You have done in me over the years, and that You’re still working in me. Help me be the agent that You desire in every way and on every level, so that Your will may be done in and through me, for Your glory. Thank You. Praise God!

Motives and Priorities; August 30, 2023

Posted on August 31, 2023 by jgarrott

John 11:48 “If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

The human capacity for misplaced priorities is absolutely incredible at times. These men were essentially acknowledging that Jesus had to be sent by God or He could never do the things He was doing, yet they chose essentially political considerations over following the Son of God. They were fairly accurate in gauging how the Romans would respond, but they were more interested in their physical kingdom than they were in the kingdom of God. Temporal power and authority are addictive! Just like drug addicts, they were choosing gratification of their addiction to their destruction. We see that in politicians today who will say or do absolutely anything to stay in office. This sort of behavior can be easy to spot in public figures, but we can fail to recognize it in ourselves. Jesus laid down a very clear guideline: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,” (Matthew 6:33) but we tend to seek almost anything else first, and then wonder why God’s kingdom doesn’t materialize in our lives. It isn’t necessarily that the other things we seek are bad, it’s just that they are secondary at best. Even political office, used rightly, can be a powerful force for good, but placing it ahead of God and His rule and reign is hubris and self-deception. We need to ask Holy Spirit to open our eyes to recognize our own priorities and motivations and choose to align them with His.

This certainly applies to me. I like to think that my motives and priorities are pure and noble, but at times that’s far from the case. I don’t want to do the right thing for the wrong reason, nor do I want to do the wrong thing even from the purest of motives. I know from experience that I can’t get it all right on my own, so I’ve got to keep seeking God for Him to straighten it all out. I know all too well that ignoring Him gets me into a world of trouble. I don’t want to be like these Jewish leaders but rather like the apostle John, who gave his life for Christ just much as his brother James did, who was the first of the apostles to be martyred, but John was the only one to die a natural death. I wouldn’t mind being martyred, but I want that level of faithfulness through thick and thin. I can’t achieve that on my own, but God can do it even in me, and that is my desire.

Father, thank You for this reminder. Two weeks from Friday I enter the period of life the Japanese government calls “the latter part of old age,” as though all I’ve got to look forward to is death. I know that’s not the case! Help me keep seeking You, Your kingdom and Your righteousness on all levels, so that Your will may be done in and through me on Your schedule for Your glory. Thank You. Hallelujah!

Eternal Life; August 29, 2023

Posted on August 30, 2023 by jgarrott

John 11:25-27 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
“Yes, Lord,” she told him, “I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”

I think I use this at every believer’s funeral I preach, because it is an extremely important passage. Martha’s confession of faith is what God wants to hear from everyone and especially from every Jew, because they are the ones with an expectation of Messiah coming into the world. However, Jesus’ statement that provokes that confession is equally important, particularly because it seems to defy logic and even personal experience. We are all too familiar with physical death, and to the materialist this seems like a complete fantasy. Faith, however, is not to be denied, and there is a mounting volume of evidence that physical death isn’t the end for human beings. Several books have come out about the phenomenon called Near Death Experiences, with many testimonies containing details that cannot be explained outside of the soul outliving the body. That by itself would just indicate that we are more than simply material, but Jesus is here talking about far more than that. The life that He is talking about is life in Him, which means eternal fellowship with the God who created us. Nothing could be more glorious! However, He makes it clear that such a destiny is dependent on faith in Him. We should desire such a destiny for everyone we love, so we should be active in encouraging them to have such faith, telling them about our own experience of Him so that His Spirit can use our words to generate faith in them.

I grew up in a household of faith, but I have to admit my own wife’s NDE really put a point on it. We were in our 20s at the time and our children were quite small. She was hanging laundry outside in February and her chest started hurting, so she asked me to finish the job and went inside to lie down. After the laundry I went into our bedroom and found her lying there. I took her hand and called her name, and when she opened her eyes I learned that she had been to heaven and had been sent back, because “Jack and the girls need you.” I won’t go into all she reported she experienced, because it was her experience and not mine, but I have no reason, Biblical or otherwise, to doubt that it was all very real. As a result of that experience she now has no fear of death, and neither do I. Rather, I have a deep anticipation of eternity with my Lord, without all the distractions of the world and my flesh. That will be life indeed!

Father, thank You for the assurance of eternal life in Christ Jesus my Lord. May I be useful to You in drawing others into that assurance through repentance and faith, for their salvation and Your glory. Thank You. Hallelujah!

God’s Schedule; August 28, 2023

Posted on August 29, 2023 by jgarrott

John 11:5-6 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. Yet when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days.

It is of intense interest that it was precisely because Jesus loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus that He didn’t respond immediately to their request for help. The NIV translators couldn’t bring themselves to render it that way, but the Japanese follows the Greek here. We have a lot of trouble emotionally when that sort of thing happens, either to us or to someone close to us. We want things to happen on our preferred schedule! However, we need to remember the anointed words of wisdom in Hebrews: “These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.” (Hebrews 11:39-40) As it says clearly there, the delay was not the fault of those experiencing it, so we aren’t to be accusing ourselves or others about such things. There are many levels to faith, but I really think timing is one of the higher/deeper ones. It is particularly stretching to our faith when we have complete assurance that God can and wants to do something, which we also want intensely, but He doesn’t do it in what we see as a timely fashion. We want to set God’s schedule! One of the most fundamental realities of the universe is that God is outside of time, because as any physicist will tell you, time is dependent on matter, and matter exists only because God created it. Being outside of time, everything is now to Him, and that plays all sorts of tricks with our minds. We need the intellectual understanding that God is outside of time, along with the faith to trust that He desires what is absolutely best for us, whatever it looks like in the moment.

This is something I struggle with all the time (pun unavoidable). I have the mental understanding of the situation, but at times that isn’t very satisfying emotionally. I tend to be jealous of “my” time, which shows that my understanding and faith aren’t nearly as deep as they could be. I’m grateful to be growing in that area, however. Just last night I had a dream that is actually related, that I was at a conference that was running late, and around 10:30 PM they decided the leaders would have a meeting – in Garrott’s room! At this point in my life I like to be in bed by 10, since I get up around 5, so this was perhaps a warning to me that I need to let go of my schedule. I do know that God will enable me to do whatever He asks of me, just as Paul experienced, (Philippians 4:13) but I still don’t find the prospect exciting! At the same time I recognize the truth in the Southern Gospel song: “We will understand it better by and by.” I am to take everything as it comes and trust God’s love, grace, and power.

Father, thank You for this Word. With my upcoming school retirement You have been making it clear that there will be many changes in my schedule. Help me not be anxious about any of it, but indeed rest, relax, and rejoice in You, just as You have told me to do, so that I may be fully available for whatever You want to do through me, for Your glory. Thank You. Praise God!
