\u201cGod Chose Us\u201d Matthew 4:12-23 <\/p>\n

May the Lord, Jesus Christ, pour His grace and peace into this sanctuary! Amen.<\/p>\n

There are people who looked at many churches before choosing to come to a particular congregation. There are also people who studied many different religions before choosing to be a Christian. These situations are reality and I have no objections when people look into different faiths and choose one that fits their needs.
\nHowever, even if many people feel that they chose their faith, is it really they who chose? Quite honestly, I am not quite clear if human beings may choose whom to follow religiously\u2026because it seems to imply that humans know more than God.
\nMy understanding is even if you feel like you chose whom to follow, especially Jesus Christ, human beings did not choose first, but Jesus, the Lord, chose you and invited you to follow him. God did not choose you because you\u2019re superior to other human beings, he chose you because he loves each one of us equally. His love is boundless and he chose you to receive it. I think because you\u2019re at worship today, you chose to accept his invitation.<\/p>\n

In the beginning of today\u2019s Gospel text, Matthew described that what prophet Isaiah said 600 years ago became reality by the appearance of Jesus Christ. According to Isaiah, in the beginning of Chapter 9, it reads, \u201cThe people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in a land of deep darkness \u2014 on them light has shined.\u201d
\nThen Matthew described the scene in which the first disciples followed Jesus. The brothers, Peter and Andrew, were catching fish. Jesus interrupted them by saying, \u201cFollow me, and I will make you fish for people.\u201d Immediately, they left the net and followed him. Did this really happen?
\nThen Matthew described that Jesus called another pair of fisherman brothers, sons of Zebedee, James and John, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him. Did this really happen?
\nTo be honest, I feel the scenes in which two pairs of brothers followed Jesus don\u2019t really make sense, because if someone becomes a follower of a religious teacher (or any kind of teacher for that matter), you would think that they would consider the teacher\u2019s reputation and vet the person\u2019s credentials. Matthew makes no mention of the brothers asking about Jesus\u2019 reputation.<\/p>\n

What are we learning from Matthew’s account this morning? We can say that Peter, Andrew, Jacob, and John are not the ones who chose Jesus, rather, God, the Lord, Jesus Christ was the one who chose the disciples. It seems they did not use any process to compare other teachers or other gods, and just followed Jesus. However, I think there is a sort of exaggeration in Matthew\u2019s account. If you read John\u2019s Gospel, like we read last week, there was a description that Andrew met Jesus first and he brought his brother Peter to Jesus.
\nAlso, if we read Luke, there was a scene that fishermen were disappointed because they could not catch fish. Then Jesus told them to cast the net again. For Peter, as a professional fisherman, the word of Jesus was meaningless to him\u2026 yet, he did what Jesus told them to do and they caught a tremendous number of fish. Then they became followers of Jesus. I believe there is enough circumstantial evidence in the Gospels of John and Luke to corroborate the events in Matthew.
\nEven though John and Luke described things differently from what Matthew described, I believe that the point from reading Matthew is that, \u201cGod (the subject) chose (verb), the Lord, Jesus Christ. Jesus was the one who chose,\u201d is not different from other Gospel accounts. God\u2019s selection and the work of the Holy Spirit brought them to be followers of Jesus.
\nAlso, it is important to mention that they did not have much education (in the Jewish community) and they did not possess any special oratory or ministerial skills. Rather, they were living in a place where people were disrespected, scorned and ignored. People there were walking a dark, lonely road.
\nAlso the disciples seemed a bit like troubled youth or grew up in what we would, today, call dysfunctional families. Although the following descriptions are not in today\u2019s Gospel, among the disciples, they were arguing \u201cwho is the greatest?\u201d Also, Zebedee\u2019s wife came to Jesus and begged him to please put her children, Jacob and John, beside Jesus, at most honored seats next to him. These are examples of Biblical one- upmanship. <\/p>\n

What are your thoughts when reflecting upon what the Bible describes? Please reflect yourself through the Biblical lens. How do you feel? Are you very different from these disciples? I understand that some of you or many of you researched or experienced different congregations before finally choosing to come to Resurrection. Or some of you were just invited by someone to come to Resurrection. However you came to Resurrection, behind the scenes, God chose each one of you and was working to enter your heart and loving you dearly. And you responded to God\u2019s invitation and came to worship at Resurrection Lutheran Church.
\nAnd the selection of Jesus was not because you grew up in a reputable family or because you were more capable than others, rather the reality is that you are flawed just like every other human being. God chose you despite your flaws.
\nI am sorry to say this but we each, me included, have our own issues that we must work through and try to overcome. Because God chose us, it is possible to overcome those issues.
\nAgain, the reality is we cannot deny these flawed aspects of ourselves and like Jesus\u2019 first disciples we can be problematic. We can never be perfect but with Jesus\u2019 example we can strive to be better and live more Christ-like lives. God, Jesus Christ still chose us and helps us despite our flaws.
\nHe gives us his eternal grace and encouragement for each of us to follow Jesus Christ. Therefore, we should not praise ourselves, but give all praise to the Lord, Jesus Christ and walk with Him. Amen.<\/p>\n

\u201cGod Chose Us\u201d Matthew 4:12-23 May the Lord, Jesus Christ, pour His grace and peace into this sanctuary! Amen. There are people who looked at many churches before choosing to come to a particular congregation. There are also people who studied many different religions before choosing to be a Christian. These situations are reality and I have no objections when people look into different faiths and choose one that fits their needs. However, even if many people feel that they chose their faith, is it really they who chose? Quite honestly, I am not quite clear if human beings may choose whom to follow religiously\u2026because it seems to imply that humans know more than God. My understanding is even if you feel like you chose whom to follow, especially Jesus Christ, human beings did not choose first, but Jesus, the Lord, chose you and invited you to follow him. God did not choose you because you\u2019re superior to other human beings, he chose you because he loves each one of us equally. His love is boundless and he chose you to receive it. I think because you\u2019re at worship today, you chose to accept his invitation. In the beginning of today\u2019s Gospel text, Matthew described that what prophet Isaiah said 600 years ago became reality by the appearance of Jesus Christ.
