Հիսուս Քրիստոսի հանդեպ հավատքով և վերածննդով, you have been delivered from the power of death and set free from every bondage, and have received a new life in Christ. The blood of Christ has cleansed you from all your sins and iniquities and made you holy and righteous. Through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, you have become a new creation and have been reconciled with God the Father. Jesus has restored your relationship with the Father. Now that you have become a new creation, what does this mean for the law? Does the law of God no longer apply to you or does it? Because the Bible says in Romans 3:31 որ դրանք, who have become a new creation will establish the law by faith. Ինչ է սա նշանակում? How do you establish the law by faith?
The new creation in Christ walks in the Word of God
Հետեւաբար, եթե որեւէ մեկը Քրիստոսի մեջ լինի, Նա նոր արարած է: Հին բաները մահացել են, and all things are become new (2 Կորնթացիս 5:17)
When you are baptized in Christ and received the baptism with the Holy Spirit, Դուք դարձել եք նոր ստեղծում. Սուրբ Հոգին բնակվում է ձեր մեջ, whereby the will of God is written upon your renewed heart.
After the new birth it’s important to renew your mind with the Word of God, so that through the Word you will get to know God and His will and your mind will line up with the Word of God (Կարդացեք նաև: Why is renewing your mind necessary?).
When you believe in the Word, you shall speak the words of God and become a doer of the Word.
By doing the Word you shall become the living word of God on earth and walk as a son of God (սա վերաբերում է և՛ տղամարդկանց, և՛ կանանց (Կարդացեք նաև: Լսողները ընդդեմ դերի).
You shall walk as a son of God by faith according to the Word and the Spirit and establish the law by faith.
If your spirit is raised from the death and the Holy Spirit dwells in you (նոր մարդը), you shall no longer walk after the flesh but after the Spirit (Կարդացեք նաև: Թող չորացած ոսկորները կենդանանան).
Քանի դեռ դուք քայլում եք Հոգու հետևից, you shall walk in obedience to God in His will, instead of walking in disobedience to God, whereby you shall not be a partaker of sin.
Do Christians stay sinners?
Եթե ասենք, որ մեղք չունենք, մենք մեզ խաբում ենք, իսկ ճշմարտությունը մեր մեջ չէ. Եթե մենք խոստովանենք մեր մեղքերը, Նա հավատարիմ է և արդար, որպեսզի ների մեզ մեր մեղքերը, և մաքրելու մեզ ամեն անիրավությունից. Եթե ասենք, որ մեղք չենք գործել, մենք Նրան ստախոս ենք դարձնում, և Նրա խոսքը մեր մեջ չէ (1 Ջոն 1:8-10).
It is often said, that you are a sinner and that you always stay a sinner. 1 Ջոն 1:8-10 is cited to substantiate this saying.
Այնուամենայնիվ, it’s always important to read the scriptures in the whole and right context, instead of picking a few words or a sentences and give an own interpretation.
Մեջ 1 Ջոն 1:8-10 John was referring to the old man; the Adamic nature. Հատվածում 8 և 10, John referred to those, who were the old man, but were full of themselves and thought they were perfect and and a good human being and not as a sinner, who lives in a fallen state in disobedience to God and rebellion against God, and said that they didn’t have sin and needed salvation.
Հատվածում 9, John refered to those, who were the old man but were convicted of their sins and repented and confessed their sin and because of that they were forgiven and cleansed by the blood of Jesus of all unrighteousness.
It’s about people, who didn’t know Jesus and were not born again, because in the previous verses the following is written:
Ուրեմն սա է այն պատգամը, որը մենք լսել ենք Նրա մասին, և հայտարարում եմ ձեզ, որ Աստված լույս է, և Նրա մեջ ընդհանրապես խավար չկա. Եթե ասենք, որ մենք ընկերություն ունենք Նրա հետ, և քայլիր խավարի մեջ, մենք ստում ենք, և մի՛ արա ճշմարտությունը: Բայց եթե մենք քայլենք լույսի ներքո, ինչպես Նա է լույսի մեջ, մենք ընկերություն ունենք միմյանց հետ, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin (1 Ջոն 1:5-7).
Every person is born as a sinner
It’s correct, that every person is born in sin and therefore everyone is born as a sinner. Բացառված չկա! No one is born holy and righteous on this earth. Միակ Անձը, Who was not born as a sinner was Jesus Christ.
Հիսուսը դարձավ մարմնի և արյան մասնակից, but Jesus was not born of the seed of man but Jesus was born of the Աստծո սերմ and was holy and righteous.
But as soon as you get saved by faith in Christ then by the blood of Jesus Christ your sins will be washed away. You will be cleansed by His blood from all your sins and iniquities.
Երբ դունորից ծնվել through the baptism in water and the baptism with the Holy Spirit, դուք ստանում եք նոր բնույթ; Աստծո բնությունը, and become separated from sin.
Մեղավոր բնությունը, որը առկա է մարմնում, has been crucified and you have exchanged the Adamic nature for the nature of God (Կարդացեք նաև: ‘Ցավալի գործընթաց, որը հայտնի է որպես մահ«)
Jesus delivered you from every bondage of darkness
Jesus delivered you from the oppression of the devil and placed you in Him. You received the Holy Spirit, so you could live a holy life, just like Jesus walked in holiness and lived a holy life, by doing the will of the Father.
Եթե ասեք, that you are and will always remain a sinner, then you actually say that God’s work of redemption wasn’t sufficient enough to make you holy and righteous. You say, that the work at the cross and the blood of Jesus, which was shed, wasn’t powerful enough to remove the sins and iniquities and deal with the sinful nature (Կարդացեք նաև: ‘Միշտ մեղսա՞կ ես մնում?‘ և ‘Աստծո փրկագնման գործը«)
If you are truly born again and the Holy Spirit abides in you, you will no longer persevere in sin.
It is very sad to hear, how many people believe this lie, which is preached from many pulpits. And because of this lie, many people keep living in the bondage of sin, thinking and believing that they will always remain sinners and never become holy and righteous, and therefore they keep walking in sin.
Abusing the grace of God to live in sin
They keep walking in sin, ապրել աշխարհի նման, while they useԱստծո շնորհը as a license to sin and make it alright to persevere in sin. Because they are unspiritual, they don’t know that they still live in the bondage of the devil and sin and death. Նրանք կարծում են, որ ազատ են, բայց իրականությունն այն է, that they are not! Their flesh is still alive and they are still spiritually oppressed and bound by the devil.
Շատ մարդիկ կան, who have changed the truth and the grace of God into a lie and a false grace. Only because many people are not willing to give up their sinful nature; their old lives and put off the old man (Կարդացեք նաև: ‘Ինչ է շնորհը?’ և ‘‘Lost in the sea of grace’).
They are not willing to crucify the works of the flesh, because they enjoy and love the works of the flesh.
Therefore they have mixed the truth of God with the subtle lies of the devil. But by mixing the truth of God with the lies of the devil, the gospel will become of no effect.
Երբ դու դառնում ես նոր ստեղծագործություն, it is not alright to keep living in sin and use the precious blood of Jesus Christ to make it alright (Կարդացեք նաև: The cross a place to die or place to sin և ‘Կարող եք մեղք գործել շնորհքի տակ’)
What is the secret to establish the law?
Paul wrote in Romans 3:31: Ուրեմն մենք չեղյալ ենք համարում օրենքը հավատքի միջոցով? Աստված չանի: այո, մենք հաստատում ենք օրենքը.
Have you been made righteous by the law, by works? ՈՉ! You have been made righteous by the blood of Jesus Christ and through faith and regeneration in Him.
But the secret is, that as you walk by faith according to the Word after the Spirit, you will automatically establish the law (օրենքի բարոյական մասը).
Because when you receive the Holy Spirit, you receive God’s nature and His will inside of you. The will of God and His commandments are written upon your heart (Կարդացեք նաև: ‘Ինչ է պատահել 50 Պասեքից օրեր անց?’)
The Holy Spirit will teach and guide you into the truth of God’s Word. You do not have to follow all kinds of statutes, Զոհաբերական օրենքներ, Սննդի մասին օրենքներ, and rituals and become religious.
Because when the Holy Spirit dwells in you, you will walk by faith after the Word and the Spirit in God’s will and establish the law through your faith.
The Holy Spirit guides you into all truth. Աստվածաշունչը չի ասում, that the Holy Spirit will guide you into all sins.
The Holy Spirit is holy and can’t have fellowship with sin. If you keep sinning then the Holy Spirit can’t stay in you, because you will grieve the Holy Spirit. Ինչպես գրված է, the light can’t have fellowship with darkness, because the light has nothing in common with the darkness.
The new man has a new heart
For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. Նոր սիրտ էլ կտամ քեզ, և նոր հոգի կդնեմ ձեր մեջ: և ես քո մարմնից կհանեմ քարե սիրտը, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, և քեզ առաջնորդել իմ կանոններով, and ye shall keep my judgments, և կատարիր դրանք (Եզեկիել 36:24-27)
God revealed to Ezekiel, the promise of the Holy Spirit and the new creation. God prophesied through the mouth of Ezekiel, that He would cleanse you from all filthiness; your iniquities and sins, and put His Spirit within you, so that you will have His nature and walk automatically in His commandments and do His will upon this earth. By doing His will, you walk in faith and establish the law (Կարդացեք նաև: Աստծո պատվիրաններն ընդդեմ Հիսուսի պատվիրանների և ‘Աստծո պատվիրանները և սատանայի պատվիրանները«).
The new man walks in righteousness
Jesus has taken care of the sin problem by Նրա փրկարար աշխատանքը խաչի վրա. You have been delivered from your sinful nature and are clothed with the nature of God.
God poured out His Spirit upon those, who believe and have been made righteous in Christ. So that they will be able to walk in righteousness and represent Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God upon this earth.
You have become an ambassador of the Kingdom of God. You will do the will of God instead of your own will. Instead of being disobedient to (the moral part of) the law and walking in rebellion against God, կատարելով ձեր մարմնի ցանկություններն ու ցանկությունները, you will establish the law through faith.
Whether you will be able to establish the law depends on one thing and that is: “Is your love for Jesus stronger, than your love for your self and for your sins?”
The new man shall become as his Master and shall even do greater things
Let no man say to you, that you will always մնա մեղավոր. Don’t believe it, when someone says that you will never become like Jesus. Because that is a lie from the devil! Հիսուսն Ինքն ասաց, that you can become as your Master and do even greater things than Jesus, որովհետև Հիսուսը գնաց Հոր մոտ (Մեթյու 10:25, Ղուկաս 6:40, Ջոն 14:12)
Don’t believe the lie either that says that the law doesn’t exist anymore. The priesthood, Զոհաբերական օրենքներ, ծեսեր, և այլն. are indeed part of the Old Covenant, բայցcommandments of the Lord that represent His will (օրենքի բարոյական մասը) դեռ կիրառվում է. Because God is the same; Երեկ, Այսօր, և Forevermore. Therefore God’s will and His nature will never change.
Ում համար Նա նախապես գիտեր, Նա նաև նախասահմանեց համապատասխանվել Իր Որդու կերպարին, որ նա լինի անդրանիկը բազմաթիվ եղբայրների մեջ (Հռոմեացիներ 8:29).
Jesus made you holy and righteous by His blood and redemptive work. The Father has given you the Holy Spirit, the same Holy Spirit that lived in Jesus Christ. So you have the ability to become like Jesus. When you become like Jesus, you will walk by faith in holiness and righteousness, կատարելով Աստծո կամքը. When you walk by faith in the will of God, you will establish the law.
