When you find the Book of Life, you find the true God of life and through His Word eternal life. The holy Book of Life is the Bible. The Bible contains the truth and life of God. But it’s up to the people what they do with it. What happens when you find the Book of Life?
What is the origin of the Book of Life?
The Book of Life originates from the one and only true Almighty God, Who is the Giver of life and created out of nothing, the heaven and the earth and all there is within through the Word and the Spirit.
All life and everything you see around you have its origin in God, and the proof of the Father’s existence is revealed through the witness of His Word and Spirit.
The Word of life and the holy Spirit of life represent the Father and the Law of the Spirit of life, and proclaim His words and do His will.
The holy Bible is the Book of Life
In the holy Bible, you’ll find the life. Every word in the Bible is given by inspiration of God through the Holy Spirit, and quickens and brings forth holy lives and good works to everyone that believes, and therefore does what the Word says.
Because it is written in 2 디모데 3:16, that all scripture, which means every word in the Bible, is profitable for doctrine, 책망을 위해, 수정을 위해, 의의 교육을 위해, so that the man of God may be perfect, 모든 선한 일에 가축을 가득 채웠다.
그러므로, it’s important that Christians know the Word, and that the Word of God is the final authority in their lives, and that they hold forth the Word of life unto the end.
A lack of knowledge of the Word of life leads to lacking Christians that are not steadfast but are tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine and remain spiritual babies that always need attention and care, 그리고, 말씀대로, will be destroyed (호세아 4:6).
If the Word of God is not the final authority in the lives of Christians, it leads to licentious lives full of sin.
모든 일을 원망과 다툼 없이 하라: 이는 너희가 흠 없고 순전하게 하려 함이라, 하나님의 아들, 꾸짖지 않고, 어그러지고 패역한 나라 가운데서, 너희는 세상에서 그들 가운데 빛들로 빛나느니라; 생명의 말씀을 붙잡고; 그리스도의 날에 나로 기뻐하게 하려 함이라, 내가 헛되이 달리지 않았다는 걸, 헛된 수고도 하지 않았다 (빌립보 2:14-16)
What happens when you find the Book of Life?
When you find the Book of Life, 당신은 두 가지를 할 수 있습니다:
You believe that the Book of Life originates from God and is the truth and believe in the Son and His finished redemptive work and His blood, and you 회개하다, BE 물에 침례를 받았습니다, and receive the 성령과의 침례 and live as the new creation in submission and obedience to the Word in the light in righteousness.
You don’t believe that the Book originates from God, but consider it a lie and don’t believe in the Son and His redemptive work, and reject the Word, and continue your carnal life as the 오래된 창조 in darkness and keep living in sin.
The result of finding the Book of Life in the life of King Josiah
In the life of King Josiah, finding the Book of Life brought forth a change and sanctified lives of people.
When Hilkia, 대제사장, found the Book of the Law of the Covenant and gave the Book to Shafan the scribe, and Shafan read the words of the Book of the Law of Moses to King Josiah, Josiah didn’t become angry or offended by the righteous and judging words of God, which were hard to hear.
Neither did King Josiah destroy the Book in the fire, as his son had done to the words of God. But the words of God from the Book of the Law of the Covenant brought him to repentance (오. 2 왕 22, 23; 예레미야 36).
King Josiah received the words of God in his heart. The words of God didn’t only cause repentance, but the words of God also led to a massive cleansing in the land, 사원 (God’s house), and the lives of people, from all idolatry, pagan influences, 그리고 (성의) uncleanness that entered the land through infidelity and adultery of the kings, 사제, elders and people of the house of Israel and Judah with the pagan nations, entered the land and God’s house.
The words of God in the lives of the humble vs the pride
That was the result of the words of God in the life of King Josiah, and that is still the result of the words of God in the lives of people that are 겸손한 and acknowledge God as Lord and believe in His Son and submit to Him, 그리고 그것 때문에, obey the words that are written in the Book of Life.
Because the words of God are still Spirit and life and bring forth holy lives and righteous work and eternal life.
그렇지만, the people with an unbelieving heart that are full of pride and rebellious and belong to the world and love the world shall reject the words of God.
왜? Because the words of God reveal sin and condemn the works of the flesh, which the old man loves so much, and reveal where the road of the carnal flesh leads to. And that’s something carnal people don’t want to hear.
They don’t want any inference from God, but they want to live their own lives with the will of the flesh as the captain of their lives.
그런 이유로, Bibles remain closed, and another gospel of the senses with motivational self-help sermons and the associated experiences is preached that please, 제공하다, and enforce the will, 감정, 정욕, and desires of the flesh of man.
세상에있는 모든 것을 위해, 육체의 정욕, 그리고 눈의 정욕, 그리고 삶의 자부심, 아버지가 아닙니다, 하지만 세상의. 그리고 세상은 지나가고, 그리고 그 욕망: 오직 하나님의 뜻을 행하는 이는 영원히 거하느니라 (1 남자 2:16-17)
The preaching of another gospel that promotes ungodly lives full of sin
그렇지만, this other gospel doesn’t produce changed lives and righteous works, as the true gospel of Jesus Christ does, but unchanged lives in sin.
These words of man don’t originate from the Well of Life. 그러므로, they don’t bring forth faith in God, loyalty, 신성한 것, 평화, 기쁨, 단일성, courageous soldiers and victors (over sin and the works of darkness), but they bring forth doubt, 불신앙, 색욕, 부정, 불만, 불안, 우울증, 불화, 질투, 화, iniquity and victims (of sin and the works of darkness), and ungodly lives.
너 자신이 하나님께 인정받은 사람임을 보여주기 위해 공부하라, a workman that needech not to be ashamed, 진리의 말씀을 옳게 분변하라. But shun profane and vain babbling: 이는 그들이 점점 더 경건하지 아니함으로 자라갈 것임이라 (2 디모데 2:15-16)
The deceiving words of carnal preachers fuel wickedness in the church and produce corrupt lives
How many times do church visitors say that they can’t help it, 그것들 때문에 live in a fallen world and are born that way and remain sinners?
This lie has been preached, 믿었다, and passed on from generation to generation, whereby people still believe this lie of the devil and keep living in this lie and keep doing the works of the sinful flesh and participate in the works of darkness.
The vain words of carnal preachers and this lie led to (성의) uncleanness and broken relationships, broken marriages, 깨진 가족, in short, broken lives.
Broken lives, that didn’t have to be broken if they believed God and obeyed His words in the Bible and followed His words in their lives.
하나님께서는 그분의 말씀을 사랑으로 주셨습니다
It was not for nothing that God sent His Word. God gave His Word out of love for humankind to awaken the generation of fallen man and redeem them from the power of the devil and darkness. Because as long as people keep sinning, they are not redeemed and free but are still prisoners and bound.
And such an imprisoned and bound generation raises the next generation that deviates even more from the truth of God and acts more wickedly than the previous generation.
We live in such a generation wherein the people perverted the gospel of Christ and adhere to another vain gospel and think through humanism that they live a good life, while in reality the apostasy is enormous.
This can be seen through the evil works (죄) in the lives of church visitors that are no different from the lives of people that belong to the world and walk in darkness.
The words of God in the Bible are not read, understood, and not displayed correctly. 대신에, the words in the Bible are interpreted from a prideful human mind and taken out of context and used for the will and lust of the flesh.
Just like the devil tried to tempt Jesus with the words of God by using His words for the flesh. 그렇지만, Jesus knew the Father and His will and was lead by the Holy Spirit and perceived the wickedness and deception of the devil and defeated the devil with the truth of God’s Word.
그러므로, submit yourself unto Jesus Christ and the Father and follow and obey the words of God and bring the words of God to life in your life.
Obey the words in the Book of Life, so that your name will be written in the Book of Life of the Lamb
믿음으로, 그만큼 새로운 탄생, and obedience to the words and commandments of God that are written in the Book of Life and by your righteous works that derive thereof, your name shall be written in the Book of Life of the Lamb.
