Pastor Cho's Sermon Outline - Yoido Full Gospel Church - Seoul, Korea
Dream and Reality
Hebrews 11:1 ~ 11:3
2014-03-02


Reality is full of sufferings and problems. Having a dream is to hope for and look to a bright tomorrow in the middle of darkness in reality. Without a dream, life degenerates into self-indulgence as there's no hope for the future. Dreams are, however, mere imaginary not being a reality itself. Our hope is to see that our dreams come true.



1. Dream, reality, and surreal reality

1) Dreams are the hopes we have.

Once we have a dream, therefore, we ought to focus on, hope for and pray for it.

2) Reality is not something imaginary.

- Sins and inequities, diseases and pain, poverty and hunger, and even death are real. They are not imaginary dreams.

3) Surreal reality

- It is to see something that is impossible to happen under realistic principle. That is surreal reality.

- The Red Sea was divided, the Jordan river was divided, Jericho fell. These are what actually happened in reality. But they cannot be explained as being impossible in realistic principle. Still, they are what happened in reality. That is why we call them surreal reality.



2. The fourth dimensional spirituality for achieving a dream

1) We ought to know the will of God.

2) We ought to have a wish, following the will of God. And we should picture it as if real in our heart.

3) We ought to see, pray for and believe it. See and believe the things that are not as if they are.

4) We ought to make a creative proclamation.



3. Surreal reality and faith

1) When we see something that cannot be done in reality under three-dimensional principle in nature is accomplished in reality, we call it a miracle.

2) Surreal reality is not a dream as dreams are imaginary.

3) When we believe in the Word of God, miraculous things happen in reality.

- The resurrection of Lazarus is surreal but it became a reality and a means of faith.

4) The Word of God - the Word of God itself is a reality. It is neither imagination nor a dream. Believe and what you believe will come true.



Where are the hands of salvation for those who are weary and burdened struggling with suffering and despair in reality? Our hopes come true though dreams, prayer, faith and proclamation. But the Word of God itself is the substance. They are revealed in reality with glory only if we believe. Once the Word of God is given to us, it is "Let it be done just as you believed it would." The surreal reality becomes reality where the heaven and the earth change as we believe it would. That is the difference between dream and faith. Though dreams are imaginary, faith is real.
