Pastor Amin Gill's Ministry Update: Jehovah Saints Church, Lahore, Pakistan

Service at Chak No. 297 JB

Pastor Amin Gill of Jehovah Saints Church in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan, shared a joyous update about his recent service conducted at Chak No. 297 JB. During this gathering, Pastor Gill delivered a powerful sermon based on the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 19, Verses 16 to 22. The message deeply touched the hearts of the congregation, bringing spiritual blessings and encouragement to all present.

He also shared a photo of the congregation, which beautifully captured their unity and devotion to God.

Sermon Focus: The Rich Young Ruler (Matthew 19:16-22)

The passage of Matthew 19:16-22 tells the story of a rich young man who approaches Jesus, asking, "Teacher, what good deed must I do to have eternal life?" Jesus responds by pointing him to the commandments. However, when the young man claims to have kept all the commandments, Jesus challenges him further: "If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." Saddened by this, the young man walks away, unable to let go of his wealth.

Key Lessons from the Sermon:

1. Eternal Life is a Gift, Not a Transaction

   • Jesus emphasizes that eternal life cannot be earned through good deeds alone. It is a gift of grace, received through faith and surrender.

   • Ephesians 2:8-9: "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast."

2. The Call to Radical Discipleship

   • True discipleship requires surrendering our earthly attachments and following Jesus wholeheartedly.

   • Luke 9:23: "And he said to all, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.'"

3. The Danger of Materialism

   • The story warns against the love of wealth, which can become a barrier to fully committing to God’s kingdom.

   • 1 Timothy 6:10: "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs."

4. Prioritizing Heavenly Treasures

   • Jesus invites us to store up treasures in heaven by living lives of generosity and faith.

   • Matthew 6:19-21: "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven."

   
   

Congregational Impact

The sermon inspired the congregation to reflect on their own spiritual journeys, encouraging them to prioritize their relationship with Christ over material possessions. The message served as a reminder of the eternal rewards that await those who follow Jesus with a surrendered heart.

Scriptures on Fellowship and Unity:

• Hebrews 10:24-25: "And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near."

• Psalm 133:1: "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!"
