Uprkos činjenici, that the Bible is the most sold and ‘read’ book in the world, the Bibel is also the most controversial Book and attacked Book in the world. Many countries are afraid of the Bible and have forbidden Bibles. To nije iznenađujuće, since the Bible is the only Book in the world, wherein God reveals Himself and the truth through His words. The Bible is so powerful that it divides soul and spirit and changes lives. But is the Bible still considered the true and eternal Word of God? Do Christians spend time in the Bible and is the Bible the highest authority in their lives? Is the Bible still compelling and relevant to Christians or do the hearts of Christians go out to other books and is the Bible faded into the background or even completely disappeared from their lives?
The sons of God spent time in the Bible
Čim se osoba ponovo rodi, which means that the flesh dies and the spirit is raised from the dead in Christ, and the person becomes a new creation, the person shall long to spend time in the Bible and search the Scriptures and feed themselves with the words of God. Jer Sveti Duh, Koji prebiva u novom stvorenju, draws the new creation to the Word of God and desires to be in unity with Jesus Christ; Riječ, i Otac.
Videći da ste očistili svoje duše u poslušnosti istini kroz Duha do nelažnjene ljubavi prema braći, gledajte da volite jedni druge čistim srcem žarko: Ponovo rođen, nije od kvarljivog semena, ali nepotkupljivog, po Božjoj riječi, koji živi i ostaje dovijeka (1 Peter 1:22-23)
Baš kao i Isus, Sin Božji, withdrew Himself to spend time with the Father, Te, who are born of God and belong to Him shall also withdraw themselves to spend time with Jesus Christ and the Father in the Word and in prayer. (Pročitajte također: Tajni molitveni život vjernika).
I po ovome znamo da Ga poznajemo, ako držimo Njegove zapovesti. Onaj koji kaže, Znam ga, i ne drži zapovijesti Njegove, je lažov, a istina nije u njemu. Ali ko drži Njegovu riječ, u njemu je zaista ljubav Božja savršena: po tome znamo da smo u Njemu. Onaj koji kaže da ostaje u Njemu treba i sam tako da hodi, čak i dok je hodao (1 John 2:3-6)
The Bible is the Word of God and contains the truth. Through the Bible, upoznaješ pravi Isus Hrist and the will of God and His Kingdom.
The more time you spend in the Bible, the better you shall get to know God and His will. And by believing, obeying, i vršenje Božijih reči, you shall walk as Jesus Christ in the will of God.
The Bible should be the highest authority in the lives of Christians
The Bible is the power of God and should be the highest authority in the lives of every born-again Christian, koji je postao sin Božiji (i muški i ženski). Nažalost, to nije uvijek slučaj.
Many Christians don’t consider the words of God as credible, compelling, and relevant, but as outdated, dusty, and old-fashioned that don’t fit in today’s society. Kao rezultat, God’s words are no longer believed, poslušao, and applied, but adjusted, promijenio, and/or rejected.
I On (Isuse) answered and said unto them, My mother and My brethren are these which hear the word of God, i uradi to (Luke 8:21)
But He (Isuse) rekao, Da bolje, blaženi koji slušaju riječ Božju, i zadrži ga (Luke 11:28)
The deception of the devil
The prince and ruler of this world (Đavo) doesn’t want people to find out the truth and discover his lies in which many people live. Stoga, the devil adjusts and corrupts the words of God very subtle through modern Bible translations and false teachings of man.
He keeps the people away from the truth and the Kingdom of God by keeping them away from the Bible; Riječ Božja.
He tempts, seduces, i entertains people with the things of this world and claim their time.
True born again Christians, who walk after the Spirit shall spend time in the Word and consider the Bible as the truth. Njima, the Bible is compelling and relevant and the highest authority in their lives.
Međutim, ljudi, koji nisu nanovo rođeni i nemaju Duha Božijeg koji prebiva u njima, but the spirit of the world, shall not long to be with Jesus and the Father and spend time in the light of the Word. They rather spend time in the light of the world aka the light of their phone, televizija, (igranje)kompjuter, itd.
Je Biblija još uvijek uvjerljiva i relevantna za kršćane?
Many Christians don’t consider the Bible a compelling spiritual Book, which contains the life of God and reveals the will of God and is relevant and needed for the spiritual man to grow up into a mature son of God and to stand against all the temptations and wiles of the devil.
They don’t consider the Bible as the Sword of the Spirit and don’t know how the handle the Sword of the Spirit in the ongoing spiritual battle.
Umjesto toga, they walk in pride by thinking, that they know the Bible after reading the Bible so many times.
Jer Božja Reč je brza, i moćan, i oštriji od svakog dvosjekog mača, prodoran čak do razdvajanja duše i duha, i zglobova i srži, i razabire misli i namjere srca (Hebrejima 4:12)
But Jesus answered and said, Napisano je, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4)
But as long as someone doesn’t walk and lives as a mature son of God in the will of God, as Jesus walked in the will of the Father, someone doesn’t know the Bible completely
Head knowledge puffs up
You can have a lot of head knowledge of the Bible, but head knowledge doesn’t do anything with a person, except that it puffs up a person and exalt himself above others.
You don’t enter the Kingdom of God by having head knowledge of the Bible, even though many people think they do. But that’s because, despite their head knowledge, they don’t know the Word experientially nor have the Word abiding in their heart.
And so many Christians are misled and lead defeated lives and are controlled by the spirit of the world. They rather feed themselves with the knowledge and wisdom of the world and listen to what ‘learned’ people have to say and consider their words as the truth and walk by faith according to their words.
What is the difference between believers and unbelievers?
Gotovo da nema razlike između vjernika i nevjernika. That’s because many Christians believe the words of the world above the words of God. The words of the world that correspond with the carnal mind and will of the flesh, are the highest authority in their lives.
Their thoughts, način razmišljanja, reči, and opinions hardly differ from each other. The only difference is that believers say they believe that God exists and believe in Jesus Christ and the unbelievers don’t. But their walk, reči, works and life are many times identical, since they walk after the flesh and are led by the same spirit that reigns in the flesh. (Pročitajte također: Ako kršćani žive kao svijet, šta bi svet trebalo da se pokaje?).
Most Christians are carnal and are led by the spirit of the world, just like unbelievers. They walk after the flesh and are led by their feelings and what happens in the natural realm. They are dependent upon situations, the surrounding, i ljudi, baš kao i svijet. Their outside world determines how they feel and determines their state. Ukratko, their lives and well-being depend upon external factors in the natural realm.
They follow the same path as the world and read all kinds of books, written by man, umjesto Biblije. They engage in various teachings, metode, and technics that often derive from filozofije čoveka and pagan religions that are popular in the world, whereby the carnal man is strengthened and the spiritual man weakens. Through all this carnal knowledge they defile themselves and enter sideways, which eventually leads to the abyss.
The devil wants to keep you ignorant
đavo, ko je vladar sveta, shall do anything to keep the people away from the Bible and eliminate the Bible from people’s lives. All because the devil knows the power of the Bible.
Without the Bible and the renewing of the mind with the Word of God, people shall never get to know the will of God and never find out the Truth, and never walk by faith in the will of God. I upravo to đavo želi.
Dakle, onda vjera dolazi od sluha, i čuti riječju Božju
Rimljanima 10:17
'Budite sol zemlje’
