Quan tornes a néixer en Crist, you have been made righteous. Diu la Bíblia, God had made Jesus, que no coneixia pecat, ser pecat per nosaltres, que no coneixia pecat, so that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him (2 Corintis 5:20-21). Ja no ets fill del diable, Un pecador, Però us heu convertit en un fill de Déu, un sant. You have received a new nature; God’s nature and therefore you shall no longer walk in sin and iniquity, because the righteous walks in righteousness. What does it mean to walk in righteousness?
El just camina amb rectitud
I ara, nens petits, abide in Him; aquell, Quan aparegui, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming. Si sabeu que Ell és just, you know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of Him (1 John 2:28-29)
Una cristià nascut de nou is born of God and has become a son of God (Això s'aplica tant a homes com a dones).
Quan tornis a néixer, you are no longer a slave of the devil and a slave of unrighteousness, but you have become a slave of Jesus Christ and shall walk in righteousness and abstain from sin and iniquity.
(Tingueu en compte: you have not been made righteous by your works, but by Jesus Christ, per la seva obra; El seu sacrifici i la seva sang. But when you become born again in the spirit, you should be doing the works of righteousness).
If you are made righteous, you shall walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh. Quan camines després de l'Esperit, you walk in the law of the Spirit.
The righteous people have only one mission and that is to please Jesus Christ, and to please God the Father, and abstain from everything that is evil and displeases Him.
Si m'estimes, guarda els meus manaments
Jesús va dir: “Si m'estimes, guarda els meus manaments” (John 14:15). When you obey Jesus and walk in His commandments, you show Jesus that you love Him. You will listen to Jesus and obey Him and walk in His Word (His commandments and will). When you walk in His Word, you shall abide in Him continuously. Not just for 2 o 3 hores a la setmana, sinó 24 Hores al dia, 7 days a week.
You shall stay on His path (La seva manera) and stay obedient to Him.
You shall not turn aside to the left or to the right Even if you are accused or persecuted, or rejected, or things don’t go the way as expected or planned. No matter what, romandràs en Ell, i mantenir els seus manaments, if you really love Jesus.
Only when you stay in Him, you shall walk in His ways and please Him.
By keeping His commandments (La paraula de Déu), you show Jesus, that you really love Him.
Quan tu, as the righteous walk in righteousness, which means that you walk according to what the Word says and live after the will of God, you not only show Him that you love Him, but you also show everyone else, that you are born of God and that you are His son and that you love God above all.
