Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. – Hebrews 12:2
In the course of developing the MTC 2012 theme, Pastor Li-En Tai came up with an insightful framework that well encapsulates the message of “The Joy Set Before Jesus”. The 3 components of this framework are: The Call, The Cross, and The City.
The model that Jesus demonstrated in Hebrews 12:2 shows us that the Father gave Jesus the “Call” to kingdom authority – the place at the right hand of His throne. This authority is to be fully manifested in the “City”, the New Jerusalem – the Bride and Wife of the Lamb (Revelation 21:9-10) – the joy set before Him. For Christ to fulfill this “Call” of kingdom authority in the “City”, He must go through the path of the “Cross”.
In the same way, Jesus expects us to also follow our “Cross” as the path that links our “Call” and our kingdom authority of the “City”. So in anticipation of MTC 2012, where the powerful worship environment brings to our hearts a keen sensitivity to the Spirit’s revelation concerning our “Call” and “City”, we have prepared six blog entries beginning from September that delved into the wonders of the “Cross” – the beauty in its contradictions and the wisdom in its simplicity.
For many of us going through the “Cross” in our families, the workplace, and the church, we expect MTC 2012 to be a time when God speaks into our “Call” and shows us a clearer picture of the “City” – the joy that compels us to the road of the cross, to greater kingdom authority.
