예수님은 인간을 마귀의 권세에서 구원하기 위해 이 땅에 오셨습니다., 죄, and death and to 사람을 다시 하나님과 화해시키다 그리고 타락한 사람의 위치를 회복하십시오. By faith in Jesus Christ and through regeneration man would no longer belong to the generation of fallen man; 노인, but to the generation of the new man; sons God. But the salvation of fallen man and the transfer from the kingdom of the darkness to the Kingdom of God had consequences for the life of the new man on earth. Because Jesus came not to send peace on earth, but Jesus came to send a sword. What did Jesus mean by not sending peace but sending a sword on earth?
Jesus brought division
내가 세상에 화평을 주러 온 줄로 생각하지 말라: 내가 온 것은 화평을 주러 온 것이 아니요, 하지만 검. 내가 온 것은 사람이 그 아버지와 불화하게 하려 함이니라, 그리고 딸은 어머니를 상대로, 며느리가 시어머니를 대적하다. 사람의 원수가 자기 집안 식구리라 (매트 10:32-36, 루 12:51)
예수님이 말씀하셨습니다, that He didn’t come to bring peace on earth, as the world defines peace, but to bring the sword.
Jesus came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law and someone’s enemies would be those of his own household.
예수의 뜻은, that His coming and His redemption through regeneration and His life in the new creation, would cause division between the 노인 (타락한 사람) 그리고 새로운 남자.
재생을 통해, the new man would no longer belong to the world, 그러나 하나님 나라에는. 그러므로, the salvation of man would cause a separation between those, 세상에 속한 사람; 어둠의 왕국 (악마의 아들) 그리고 그것들, who belong to the Kingdom of God (하나님의 아들들).
The result of regeneration
세상은 당신을 미워할 수 없습니다; 하지만 나는 싫어, 내가 증언하기 때문이다, 그 행위가 악하다 (JN 7:7)
When the disciples of Jesus were not born again and were still the old creation, 타락한 사람의 세대에 속한 사람, 예수님이 말씀하셨습니다, that the world could not hate them, because they still belonged to the world. But when they would be born again and the Holy Spirit would dwell in them and Jesus Christ would be in them, that would all change.
His life and His righteousness in the new creation would cause agitation, 대조, 싫어하다, 저항, 그리고 박해.
The old carnal man, who has the nature of the devil and the spirit of the antichrist wouldn’t stand the new man, who has the nature of God and the Spirit of Christ.
Since the Holy Spirit, Who lives in the new man, would reprove those, 세상에 속한 사람, 죄의, 정당성, 그리고 판단 (JN 16:8)
Jesus was hated by the world, because He testified that her works were evil. Therefore the new creations would also be 세상이 미워하는, because they would also testify that her works are evil (JN 15:18-27; 16:1-12).
그만큼 재건 in Jesus Christ and living in Him would divide the soulish people, who are born of the seed of Adam and the spiritual people, 하나님의 씨로 난 자 (예수).
The Word is powerful and shaper than any two-edged Sword
그러므로 우리가 저 안식에 들어가기를 힘쓰라, 그리하여 누구든지 같은 불신의 본을 본받지 않도록 하라. 하나님의 말씀은 속히 가느니라, 그리고 강력합니다, 어떤 쌍날칼보다 예리하며, 영혼과 정신의 분열에도 피어싱, 관절과 골수, 그리고 마음의 생각과 의도의 분별자입니다. 그의 시야에서 나타나지 않는 생물도 없습니다.: 그러나 모든 것이 알몸으로 우리가해야 할 사람의 눈으로 열려 있습니다. (히브 4:11-13)
검, that Jesus brought not only referred to the relationships between people on earth and the separation between the generation of the old man and the generation of the new man, but the sword also referred to the life of the new man.
Because the Word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword and it pierces even to the dividing asunder of soul (노인) 그리고 정신 (신인) and of the joints and marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The Word deals with the old man
The Word is the truth of God and is holy and righteous. When you study the Word through the Holy Spirit and renew your mind, you will get to know the 하나님의 뜻. The truth of God shall expose the lies of the world and shall bring the works of darkness into the light.
The Word shall, 무엇보다도, confront you with the deeds of your flesh, and then it’s up to you, to obey the Word or not. When you obey the Word of God and do what He says, you shall mortify the deeds of your flesh and 노인을 내려놔라.
The Word not only deals with the old man, but the Word also reveals who you have become in Jesus Christ.
The Word builds the new man up in holiness
The Word feeds the spirit of the new creation with the truth of God. The Word shall reveal, 당신은 누구입니다 in Christ and what inheritance you have been given in Him. Without the Word you will never find out.
Only through obedience to the Word, which is sharper than any two-edged sword you shall kill the works of the flesh and shall do the works of the spirit.
By renewing your mind with the Word and by obeying the Word, the new man shall arise and shall walk in the light; the truth of God as the new creation; 하나님의 아들. The new man shall be build up in holiness through the Word and shall do the will of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit on earth.
비용을 계산해 보세요
그러므로, 예수님이 말씀하셨습니다, that before you make a choice to follow Him you should 비용을 계산하다. Because many people are not willing to lay down their old life and kill the works of the old carnal man through obedience to the Word (the Sword).
Many people are not able to run the race of faith and finish it. They want to be partakers of the race to receive the price, but they are not willing to pay the price. They assume that you won’t have to make any effort to be rewarded. 하지만 그건 사실이 아니야.
Every professional athlete knows, what you have to give up to perform at top level and what it cost to win and be rewarded. If you didn’t have to give up anything and didn’t have to make any effort, then everyone would be a professional athlete. 하지만 그 사람들만이, who are willing to pay the price and give up their own lives, their time and social lives and activities for a disciplined training schedule with the right nutrition and a full dedication, will be rewarded.
하나님의 아들들에게도 마찬가지다. If you wouldn’t have to make any effort, then Jesus wouldn’t have said that you should first 비용을 계산하다 before making the choice to follow Him
Jesus wouldn’t have said either: 아버지나 어머니를 나보다 더 사랑하는 자는 나에게 합당하지 아니하고: 아들이나 딸을 나보다 더 사랑하는 사람도 나에게 합당하지 않다. 그리고 자기 십자가를 지지 않는 사람은, and follows after Me, 나에게 합당하지 않다. 자기 목숨을 얻는 자는 잃을 것이다: 누구든지 나를 위하여 자기 목숨을 잃으면 찾으리라 (매트 10:37-39)
그러나 이것은 예수님의 말씀이다.. And Jesus said many more things, which are nowadays twisted and preached in such a manner, that many believers think that you don’t have to do anything and don’t have to make any effort, that everything will be thrown in your lap and you can live like the world; as those who still belong to the generation of fallen man and keep doing those things that go against the will of God.
But when you decide to follow Jesus, it means to give up yourself and put off your flesh. You may even lose friends and/or family members, because they are not able to bear the Truth of God.
Because the Truth of God; the Sword pierces even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit and brings division between soulish people and spiritual people on earth.
