Dokter Lukas menuliskan kisah munculnya gereja mula-mula di Yerusalem secara runtut. Beliau memulainya dari sebuah perintah sederhana yang diberikan oleh Tuhan Yesus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"><em><strong>Ia melarang mereka meninggalkan Yerusalem, dan menyuruh mereka tinggal di situ menantikan janji Bapa &#8230;<\/strong><\/em><\/span>\u201d (Kisah Para Rasul 1:4). Sebuah perintah sederhana yang bisa saja menimbulkan pertanyaan di kalangan para murid.<\/p>\n<p>Bisa saja di hati mereka muncul pertanyaan-pertanyaan, \u201cmengapa harus di Yerusalem?\u201d atau \u201capa itu janji Bapa?\u201d, dan mungkin banyak pertanyaan lainnya. Tetapi yang indah adalah, mereka tidak mempertanyakan dan meragukan perintah itu.<\/p>\n<p>Jika kita melompat ke Kisah Para Rasul 1:12-13 mereka melakukan perintah Tuhan Yesus itu dengan ketaatan dalam sukacita.<\/p>\n<p>Saya senang frase ini, \u201cketaatan dalam sukacita\u201d. Mereka taat dengan penuh sukacita di hati, mereka tidak taat karena terpaksa.<\/p>\n<p>Mari meneladani warisan gereja mula-mula ini. Jangan menjadi taat karena terpaksa. Mari naik level setingkat, jadi anak-anak Tuhan yang taat dalam sukacita penuh. [\/id]<\/p>\n<p>[en]Read : Acts 1:1-13<\/p>\n<p>One of the legacies left by the first church can be read from the verses above. Luke wrote the story beautifully. He started the story from a simple command from our Lord, Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<strong><em><span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father &#8230;<\/span><\/em><\/strong>\u201d (Acts 1:4). A simple order, but maybe it could raise questions from the apostles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy should be in Jerusalem?\u201d or \u201cwhat is the promise of the Father?\u201d or maybe other question. But, the apostles never doubt or asked those questions.<\/p>\n<p>Jump to Acts 1:12-13, we can see that the obey Jesus in joy. They have what I call \u201ca joyful obedience\u201d. Yes, I like this phrase, \u201ca joyful obedience\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>They obey the Lord with a heart full of joy. The obey not because they had to do that, but they enjoy to obey the Lord. That was a joyful obedience.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t obey our King because we have to do that, but because we have a joyful obedience.
