our youths at HisLife called as YX are getting ready
for another round of Evangelism and Discipleship.
They created this SERIES below.
------------
"Bahay ni Kuya" based on the primetime reality show PBB;
highlights the following:
Big Brother - a guide, leader, mentor, a father figure, someone who implements rules, appoints tasks, applies punishment, gives rewards
Housemates - individuals from various backgrounds, living temporarily in the vicinity “Bahay”, expected to obey/comply – compete with each other for survival, work together to accomplish tasks, and are always at risk of being eliminated.
Objectives
Series goals for the pre-believers and believers alike to:
i. See and appreciate the Person of God as the Holy Spirit;
ii. in that way, we come to be completely obey God with the Spirit
iii. Live a victorious life just as it was already accomplished by Christ on the Cross
1. The Big Reveal
John 14:26
"Ang singing diva ng Bacolod...." , "Hunk dude ng Pasig.".. are among the short descriptive words to tease and excite the television viewers about the housemates they might be seeing in the incoming season of PBB.
Jesus, who was prophesying of his death and going back to the Father, left his disciples with [grief]. But He did not stop there. He also promised them that as soon as he gets back to heaven, he will be sending an "advocate" / "helper" Who will empower them even with Jesus not being physically present. They were [puzzled] who this "advocate" is.
The BIG REVEAL not only unmasked the Spirit; the Big Reveal brought sanctification
(Galatians 5:16-18) among believers, and It also dwelt among us so that we become like Christ.
2. The Confession Room
Romans 8:2 1 John 1:9 Proverbs 28:13 Romans 3:23 John 8: v32 and v. 36
Every Housemate gets into the Confession Room for many purposes.
This is the one room where a housemate gets a chance to a more personal conversation with Kuya such as receiving incoming tasks, assessing difficult emotions, addressing an interpersonal and intrapersonal conflicts, and many others. Often, the conflicts get resolved because Kuya wants everyone in the house to be free from conflict and hard feelings.
[Walking in the Spirit] and as a growing believer of Christ, we become more aware of our sinful nature. Thus, confession of sin is necessary in order to acknowledge that we are in need to be cleansed. To confess would lead us to repent. This is how a Christian lives in freedom.
3. Ang Hamon ni Kuya
Romans 15:13 1 Timothy 4:12 2 Corinthians 5:7
Sa Bahay ni Kuya, the housemates are assigned ultimately challenging daily tasks, weekly tasks, and even special /secret tasks. Failure is associated with consequences, and success with rewards.
Most times they worry --should they fail to accomplish a task.
However, in the Kingdom of God, we have been tasked in our daily lives to work in His vineyard (Matthew 28: 19). Tasks come in many form, but all of it takes faith because God will definitely call us to get out of our comfort zone. Now that we are filled with the Spirit and thus have freedom from sin, we should ready ourselves to walk on waters.
[Suggestion: This topic gives emphasis that obedience best demonstrates our faith-filled life, and our reward is beyond compare – immeasurable: our reward is Christ Himself]
4. The Big Winner
2 Corinthians 2:14 Romans 8:37 1 Corinthians 15:57
To conclude a hyped season, the show announces the BIG winner as decided by the number of votes/preference of the viewers.
In contrast, God has already spelled out our victory soon after The Fall of Man (Adam and Eve), and the prophets have whispered between the lines about the coming of the "victor."
The finished work on the cross gives us evidence that VICTORY is already at hand in the name of Jesus.
[May also emphasize: it is not us who chooses the victor. Our God heaven chose and sacrificed Jesus for us. Jesus walked in obedience]
