Ogni parola di Dio scritta nella Bibbia contiene la conoscenza, saggezza, e la vita di Dio. La Parola di Dio è la verità e rivela a.o. i segreti del Regno di Dio, la legge dello Spirito, La volontà di Dio, Bene e male, Cristo, the dominion and inheritance of the sons of God (maschi e femmine), and how every son of God should walk on earth. Jesus is the living Word of God and everyone, che è divenuto una nuova creazione in Cristo, should become like Jesus. Therefore God’s Word is a Mirror for the new creation; l'uomo nuovo, who is created in Jesus Christ after the image of God and in whom the Spirit of God dwells.
God’s Word is the express image of God
Dio, i quali in vari tempi e in diversi modi parlarono in passato ai padri per mezzo dei profeti, ci ha parlato in questi ultimi giorni per mezzo di Suo Figlio, Whom He hath appointed Heir of all things, per mezzo del quale ha creato anche i mondi; Che è lo splendore della Sua gloria, e l'immagine espressa della Sua persona, e sostiene ogni cosa con la parola della sua potenza, quando Egli stesso aveva purificato i nostri peccati, si è seduto alla destra della Maestà nell'alto dei cieli; Essere reso molto migliore degli angeli, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent Name than they (Ebrei 1:1-4)
God’s Word is the express image of God and is the only tangible source of truth from God on earth. Gesù è la Parola vivente di Dio, che venne nella carne, nel somiglianza dell'uomo, alla terra. Gesù ci ha mostrato, how the new creation; the new man ought to walk on earth.
Proprio come Gesù; the living Word represented God and His will and was the express Image of the Father, the new creation represents Jesus Christ and La sua volontà, which is also the will of the Father and is the express image of the Father and Jesus Christ; His Word on earth. Since the new creation is created after the immagine di Dio (John 1:5, romani 8:29, 2 Corinzi 4:4, Efesini 4:24, Colossesi 1:15, Ebrei 1:1-4).
Through the process of sanctification and the rinnovamento della tua mente with the Word and by being a doer of the Word, you shall be the express image of Jesus; the Word on earth. Because the Word is the Mirror of the new man.
La Parola rivela, Chi sei in Cristo, your new nature, your inheritance in Him, how you take possession of your inheritance and live and walk in the dominion of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God as a son of God on earth, what you can expect in life as a son of God and things that will happen in the future.
All these secrets of God, which are hidden for the unspiritual soulish man, are revealed in Jesus Christ; the Word of God to the spiritual new man; Figlio di Dio.
Focused on the provisions of God
Ma sfortunatamente, many Christians are not aware of that and don’t consider the Bible that way. To many Christians, the Bible is nothing more than a religious history Book with all kinds of laws and rules, that the majority of people don’t like. Many have inherited and adopted the faith of their parents and based their faith on what is preached every Sunday in the church. They don’t really know the Bible themselves and what the scopo della Bibbia È. A loro, their faith is more of a tradition than a way of life.
They say they believe in Jesus Christ and claim to be Christians, but their words and their works say something else.
Because they don’t speak the words and truth of God, come Gesù. They don’t live in obedience to God, like Christ, and don’t preach the gospel and call the people to repentance and do the same works as Christ. But they are carnal and are led by the flesh and speak the words of the world and do the same works as the world and deny the words of the Bible.
Then there are Christians, who use the Bible and the Scriptures only for their own prosperity and ‘the (materiale) blessings of God’. They are only focused on the provisions of God and use the Scriptures in the Bible as mantra’s in their lives, to get what they desire and want. But that is not the purpose of God’s Word.
As written before in the article, ‘Una fede tecnica ", Gods Word is not a magic book that you only grab and use when you want something and use the scriptures as a formula.
God’s Word is so much more than that.
The engrafted Word of God
Poiché avete purificato le vostre anime obbedendo alla verità mediante lo Spirito per un amore sincero verso i fratelli, badate ad amarvi gli uni gli altri con cuore puro e con fervore: Nascere di nuovo, non di seme corruttibile, ma di incorruttibile, dalla parola di Dio, che vive e dimora in eterno (1 Peter 1:22-23)
The words of God are like spiritual seeds, which should be planted in the lives of the new man. When you take the words of God and obey His words and walk in His words and become a doer of His words, you walk in faith in the truth, the light, e la vita. Only the planted word in the new man is able to keep souls and to save souls.
Depending on the soil, wherein the seed is planted, the seed shall strike root, germinate, grow and bear fruit, or the root will dry up and die (Leggi anche: I quattro tipi di credenti).
Not hearers only, ma operatori della Parola
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. Perché se qualcuno è ascoltatore della parola, e non un agente, è simile a un uomo che guarda il suo volto naturale in uno specchio: Perché vede se stesso, e va per la sua strada, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. Ma chiunque scruta la perfetta legge della libertà, e continua in esso, non essendo un ascoltatore smemorato, ma un esecutore dell'opera, quest'uomo sarà benedetto nella sua azione (Giacomo 1:22-25)
La Parola dice, che tali, who are only hearers of the words of God and not doers, mislead themselves and are like unto a man, who behold his natural face in the mirror and go his way and straightway forget what manner of man he was.
The hearers of the Word forget, who they are in Christ through regeneration, what the volontà di Dio È, and the authority and power, God has given to the new creation.
Although they listen to the words of God every Sunday in church and hear about salvation, la Croce, rigenerazione, the position and inheritance of the new creations, e la volontà di Dio, they don’t do anything with this knowledge.
They may have a lot of head-knowledge of the Bible, but because they don’t speak the words and truth of God and don’t put their Bible knowledge into practice, but instead speak and be doers of the words of the world and live according to the truth, conoscenza, e saggezza del mondo, they deceive themselves and remain the vecchia creazione, who lives in bondage to the world (il regno delle tenebre (Leggi anche: Coloro che ascoltano contro coloro che agiscono).
They stay ignorant and don’t know, who they are as the spiritual man in Christ and what position and spiritual authority they have in Christ on earth.
God’s Word is a Mirror for the new man
When you wake up in the morning and get ready for the day, do you leave the house without looking in the mirror? Do you arrive at your work or school without looking in the mirror? Apparentemente no.
Purtroppo, ce ne sono molti, who start their day without the Word and without spending time with the Father.
But the new man is born of God and longs to spend time together with the Father in the Word. The new man listens to the words of God, yield himself to God and His words, and speaks and does the words of God.
L'uomo nuovo, who walks after the Spirit is not double-minded and is not schizophrenic. He doesn’t go back and forth and is not one moment the new man and the other moment the old man.
Because although the gospel and the message have been adjusted throughout the years, after you are born again, it is still not the intention to raise the flesh from the dead. Because the flesh has been crucified in Christ and no longer lives.
The new man shall not walk after the flesh and shall not believe the lies of man, who are influenced and controlled by the kingdom of darkness.
But the new man shall walk after the Spirit in the truth of the law of liberty and shall expose and disprove the lies of the world with the truth of God’s Word.
Poiché tutti coloro che hanno peccato senza legge, periranno anche senza legge: and as many, as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (Perché non gli uditori della legge sono giusti davanti a Dio, ma gli operatori della legge saranno giustificati (romani 2: 12-13)
O wratched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body if this death? Ringrazio Dio per Gesù Cristo nostro Signore. Quindi con la mente, Io stesso servo la legge di Dio; ma con la carne la legge del peccato. Non c'è dunque più alcuna condanna per quelli che sono in Cristo Gesù, che non camminano secondo la carne, ma secondo lo Spirito. Poiché la legge dello Spirito della vita in Cristo Gesù mi ha liberato dalla legge del peccato e della morte. Per quello che la legge non poteva fare, in quanto era debole a causa della carne, Dio manda il proprio Figlio a somiglianza della carne del peccato, e per il peccato, condannò il peccato nella carne: Affinché la giustizia della legge possa realizzarsi in noi, che non camminano secondo la carne, ma secondo lo Spirito. Perché quelli che sono secondo la carne pensano alle cose della carne; ma quelli che sono secondo lo Spirito, le cose dello Spirito (romani 7:24-8:5)
The new man shall always look in the Mirror of God’s Word and look in the perfect law of liberty. And by applying the words of God in his life, he shall walk in the truth and be blessed in his deed.
He shall know, who he is in Christ and what he looks like. When he goes out, he shall not forget who he is as the new creation, and he shall not walk as the old creation among the people. But he shall still know who he is and what he looks like.
Wherever he is and wherever he goes, he shall walk as the new man and speak and act in the truth and authority of the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit.
