聖書に書かれている神の言葉にはすべて知識が含まれています, 知恵, そして神の命. 神の言葉は真実であり、次のことを明らかにします。. 神の国の秘密, 御霊の法則, 神の意志, 善悪, キリスト, the dominion and inheritance of the sons of God (男性と女性), and how every son of God should walk on earth. Jesus is the living Word of God and everyone, キリストにあって新たに創造された者, should become like Jesus. Therefore God’s Word is a Mirror for the new creation; 新しい男, 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
神, さまざまな時間に、さまざまな態度で、過去のことを預言者たちによって先祖たちに語った人たち, この終わりの日に御子が私たちに語られたのは, Whom He hath appointed Heir of all things, 神はまた誰によって世界を造られたのか; 栄光の輝きとは誰なのか, そして彼の人柄の明確なイメージ, そして神の力の言葉によってすべてを支持する, 神ご自身が私たちの罪を清めてくださったとき, 高台にある陛下の右手に座った; 天使よりもはるかに良く作られている, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent Name than they (ヘブライ人への手紙 1:1-4)
God’s Word is the express image of God and is the only tangible source of truth from God on earth. イエスは生きた神の言葉です, who came in the flesh, で 人間のようなもの, 地球へ. Jesus showed us, how the new creation; the new man ought to walk on earth.
イエスのように; the living Word represented God and His will and was the express Image of the Father, the new creation represents Jesus Christ and 彼の意志, 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 神の像 (ジョン 1:5, ローマ人 8:29, 2 コリント人への手紙 4:4, エペソ人への手紙 4:24, コロサイ人への手紙 1:15, ヘブライ人への手紙 1:1-4).
Through the process of sanctification and the あなたの心を更新します 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.
The Word reveals, キリストにあってあなたは誰ですか, 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; 神の子.
Focused on the provisions of God
しかし残念ながら, 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 聖書の目的 は. 彼らへ, 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, イエスのように. 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 (材料) 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, 「技術的な信念』, 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
あなたがたはあなたの魂を霊を通して真実に従うことであなたの魂を浄化し、兄弟たちへの不明確な愛へ, あなたがたが熱心に純粋な心でお互いを愛しているのを見てください: 生まれ変わっています, 腐敗しやすい種ではありません, しかし、腐敗しない, 神の言葉によって, 永遠に生き生きとしています (1 ピーター 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, 光, そして人生. 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 (こちらもお読みください: 4種類の信者).
Not hearers only, but doers of the Word
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. というのは、もしその言葉を聞く人がいるなら、, そして実行者ではない, 彼はまるでガラスの中で自分の自然な顔を眺める人間のようだ: 彼は自分自身を見ているから, そして彼の道を行く, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, 彼は忘れっぽい聞き手ではない, しかし、仕事の遂行者, この人はその行為において祝福されるだろう (ジェームス 1:22-25)
御言葉は言う, それ, 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 神の意志 は, 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, 十字架, 再生, the position and inheritance of the new creations, そして神の意志, 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, 知識, そして世界の知恵, they deceive themselves and remain the 古い創造物, who lives in bondage to the world (闇の王国 (こちらもお読みください: 聞く側対実行する側).
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? どうやらそうではありません.
残念ながら, 沢山あります, 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.
新しい男, 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.
法なしに罪を犯した者は、法なしに滅びるからである。: and as many, as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (律法を聞く者は神の直前ではないからです, しかし法の実行者は正当化されるであろう (ローマ人 2: 12-13)
O wratched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body if this death? 私たちの主イエス・キリストを通して神に感謝します. それで、心で, 私自身も神の律法に仕えています; しかし肉には罪の法則がある. したがって、キリスト・イエスにある彼らに対する非難は今はありません, 肉の後ではなく歩く人, しかし御霊の後は. キリストの生命の霊の律法は、イエスが私を罪と死の律法から解放したからです. 法律ができなかったことのために, それは肉体を通して弱かったという点です, 神はご自身の御子を罪深い肉に似せて遣わされる, そして罪のために, 肉の中で罪を非難しました: 法律の正しさが私たちの中で満たされるかもしれないこと, 肉の後ではなく歩く人, しかし御霊の後は. 肉の後の彼らのために肉のことを気にします; しかし、彼らは霊の後に霊のものです (ローマ人 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. しかし、彼はまだ自分が誰であるか、そして自分がどのように見えるかを知っているでしょう.
彼がどこにいても、どこに行っても, 彼は新しい人として歩み、言葉の真理と権威、そして聖霊の力で語り、行動するでしょう。.
