Mill-imħabba, Alla bagħat lil Ibnu fuq l-art bħala sagrifiċċju għall-bniedem waqa’. Permezz tas-sagrifiċċju ta’ Ġesù Kristu, ir-relazzjoni bejn il-bniedem waqa’ u Alla ġiet restawrata. Il-Patt il-Qadim, li kien issiġillat bid-demm tal-annimali ġie sostitwit minn Patt Ġdid, li kien issiġillat bid-demm prezzjuż ta’ Ġesù Kristu. Il-bniedem ma setax jiġi salvat aktar bl-għemejjel tal-liġi. L-uniku mod kif wieħed isalva kien bil-fidi f’Ġesù Kristu u permezz tar-riġenerazzjoni fih. Ġesù kellu wettaq il-liġi u kien ħa d-dnub tad-dinja u l-kastig għad-dnub, li hija l-mewt, fuqu nnifsu. Kulħadd, li se jidentifikaw miegħu fil-mewt u l-qawmien Tiegħu, ikun mifdi mill-mewt u ma jibqax jara l-mewt, imma jirtu l-ħajja ta’ dejjem. Dik kienet l-imħabba u l-grazzja ta’ Alla, li ma kienx maħsub biss għall-poplu Tiegħu bi twelid naturali; Iżrael, imma wkoll għall-Ġentili. Imma l-imħabba u l-grazzja ta’ Alla, li ġiet rivelata lill-umanità bil-miġja u l-ħajja ta’ Ġesù Kristu u l-mewt u l-qawmien Tiegħu, ma tawx lill-umanità d-dritt li tipperseveraw fid-dnub. Għax l-imħabba u l-grazzja ta’ Alla ma tikkompromettix mad-dnub.
L-imħabba ta’ Alla
Matul il-Bibbja, naraw kif Alla wera l-imħabba kbira Tiegħu għall-poplu. Alla ried ikun Alla għan-nies u Ried li jkollu relazzjoni magħhom bħalma kellu Alla ma’ Adam qabel ma sar diżubbidjenti lejn Alla.. Madankollu, ħafna nies ma ridux lilu jkun Alla tagħhom u ma ridux jisimgħuh.
Kienu ribellużi u pjuttost servew lill-alla ta’ din id-dinja; Ix-Xitan, billi jisimgħuh u jobduh permezz tax-xewqat u x-xewqa ta’ ġisimhom.
In-nies għamlu kull tip ta’ affarijiet, li marret kontra r-rieda u n-natura ta’ Alla u l-qdusija Tiegħu. U għalhekk ħażen żdiedu fuq l-art.
Il-ħażen kien daqshekk kbir, li d-dnub laħaq is-sema u għajjat lil Alla. Alla nidem mill-ħolqien tal-umanità u peress li ma ridux jindem, ma kien hemm xejn ieħor li setaʼ jagħmel Alla ħlief jeqred lill- umanità.
U għalhekk id-dilluvju daħal fuq l-art u aktar tard f’Sodoma u Gomorra u l-bliet ta’ madwar inqerdu għax in-nies ma riedx jisimgħu lil Alla u ma riedx jobdi lil Alla..
Alla fdien lill-poplu Tiegħu mill-qawwa tal-Fargħun
Anke meta Alla kien għażel il-poplu tiegħu; iż-żerriegħa ta’ Ġakobb; Iżrael bil-grazzja u fdienhom mill-qawwa u l-oppressjoni tal-Fargħun u mexxahom mill-Eġittu b’idu qawwija, ħafna nies baqgħu ribelli.
Alla wera lilu nnifsu permezz tal-ħafna sinjali u għeġubijiet. Alla għarrafilhom ir-rieda u n-natura tiegħu, billi tahom il-liġi Tiegħu lil Mosè, li kien ir-rappreżentant Tiegħu. Permezz tal-liġi, Alla għamel modi tiegħu U Il-ħsibijiet tiegħu magħruf mill-poplu Tiegħu.
Il-liġi tad-dnub u l-mewt kienet maħsuba għar-relazzjoni bejn il-bniedem karnali antik, li kien tal-poplu ta’ Alla, u Alla. Peress li l-anzjan kien maqbud fil-laħam tiegħu, li fiha jsaltan id-dnub u l-mewt.
Imma minflok, Il-poplu tiegħu wera l-biża’ tiegħu mill-Mulej billi żamm il-liġi, ħafna baqgħu ribelli u diżubbidjenti minħabba d-dgħufija ta’ ġisimhom u ma ridux jissottomettu ruħu għar-rieda Tiegħu.
Il-poplu ta’ Iżrael kien tant familjari mal-kultura, allat (idoli), u drawwiet tal-Eġittu, li qabblu lil Alla tagħhom mal-allat tal-Eġittu.
Imma l-Alla, li kien għażelhom bil-grazzja u kellu ħniena minnhom ma kienx alla, li nħoloq minn idejn il-bniedem. L-Alla, li kien għażelhom bil-grazzja u kellu ħniena minnhom kien il- Ħallieq tas-sema u l-art u dak kollu li hemm ġewwa. Alla kien ħalaqhom, minflok bil-maqlub.
Sfortunatament, mhux kulħadd kien lest iġeddu moħħhom bil-kliem ta ’Alla, li kienu miktuba fil-liġi, u permezz ubbidjenza lejn kliemu jissottomettu ruħhom għal dan Alla li Jista’ Kollox; il-kreatur tas-sema u tad-dinja u dak kollu li hemm ġewwa.
Bħala riżultat, mhux kulħadd, li kienu tal-poplu t’Alla daħlu fl-art imwiegħda u le Daħħal il-mistrieħ tiegħu.
Alla ma kompromessx mad-dnub
Mietet ġenerazzjoni sħiħa fid-deżert u qatt ma daħlet fl-art li wiegħed Alla. Kollha minħabba l-ebusija u r-ribelljoni tagħhom.
Hemm ħafna aktar eżempji miktuba fit-Testment il-Qadim ta’ ċerti affarijiet li Alla kellu jagħmel, li kien jippreferi ma jagħmilx.
Dan ma kienx ikkawżat minn Alla u n-natura Tiegħu, imma minħabba l-kburija, ras iebsa, u ribelljoni tan-nies u n-natura tagħhom. Għax ħaġa waħda hija ċerta u dik hija Alla u l-imħabba tiegħu ma tistax tagħmel patt mal-mewt, billi jittolleraw id-dnub. Alla ma setax jagħmel dan fit-Testment il-Qadim u Alla għadu ma jistax jagħmel dan, peress li Alla huwa l-istess, Ilbieraħ, Illum, u Forevermore.
Il-mewt kienet l-għadu ta’ Alla u mhux ħabib Tiegħu. Kulħadd, li kien tal-poplu ta’ Alla imma għex fid-dnub, fir-ribelljoni kontra l-liġi, se juri li (s)ma kienx iħobb lil Alla b’qalbu kollha, moħħok, ruħ, u saħħa u ma kienx ta’ Alla, imma kienet tal-mewt. Peress li l-persuna pproduċiet il-frott tal-mewt, li hu dnub u mhux permezz ta’ ubbidjenza lejn Alla u l-liġi Tiegħu, il-frott tal-ġustizzja.
L-imħabba ta’ Ġesù
Ġesù wieġeb u qallu, Jekk raġel iħobbni, iżomm kliemi: u Missieri jħobbu, u Aħna nersqu lejh, u agħmlu d-dar tagħna miegħu. Min ma jħobbnix ma jżommx kliemi: u l-kelma li tisimgħu mhix tiegħi, imma tal-Missier li bagħatni (John 14:23-24)
Il-Kelma ta’ Alla hija l-verità. M'hemm l-ebda kelma waħda li hija miktuba fil-Bibbja u l-ebda wegħda ta 'Alla li ma titwettaqx. Madankollu, xi profeziji u wegħdiet għadhom ma twettqux. Iżda naraw ukoll dawn bil-mod jiġu sodisfatti bħala l- ritorn ta’ Ġesù approċċi.
Alla bagħat il-kelma tiegħu lill-poplu tiegħu billi tahom il-liġi.
Il-liġi wriet ir-rieda t’Alla lin-nies karnali u għallmet lill-poplu karnali Tiegħu, li l-ispirtu tiegħu kien il-mewt, tat-tajjeb u l-ħażin.
Meta kien wasal iż-żmien, Alla wettaq il-wegħda Tiegħu tal- Ġej tal-Messija, u għalhekk Ġesù l-Kelma ta’ Alla ġie fuq l-art.
Ġesù ġie biex jifdi lill-bniedem waqa’ mill-ħakma u l-oppressjoni tax-xitan, li jsaltan fil-laħam tal-bnedmin.
Ġesù rrestawra l-pożizzjoni tal-bniedem waqa’ u rrikonċilja lill-bniedem lura ma’ Alla. Sabiex ir-relazzjoni bejn Alla u l-bniedem tiġi restawrata (Aqra wkoll: ‘Il-paċi, Ġesù rrestawrat bejn Alla u l-bniedem‘. U ‘Ġesù rrestawra l-pożizzjoni taʼ bniedem waqaʼ‘).
Ġesù għarraf ir-rieda t’Alla lill-poplu Tiegħu
Ġesù ġie biex jiżvela l- rieda ta’ Alla billi tirrappreżenta, predikazzjoni, u ġġib is-Saltna ta’ Alla lill-poplu ta’ Alla u ssejjaħ lin-nies għall-indiema.
Il-poplu t’Alla tant iddevja mill-verità li kien maqbud f’reliġjon magħmula mill-bniedem, li nħoloq minn duttrini foloz tan-nies, tradizzjonijiet, u s-sett ta’ regoli u regolamenti tagħhom, li ma kinux minn Alla.
Huma kienu ħolqu Alla u reliġjon, li ma kienx jikkorrispondi mal-Alla veru u l-verità Tiegħu.
Imma minħabba t-tradizzjonijiet tal-bniedem, trabbew f'din ir-reliġjon magħmula mill-bniedem u qiesu din ir-reliġjon bħala l-verità.
Sal-Verità ta’ Alla; Il-Kelma tiegħu ġiet fid-dinja Hu stess u kixef dan il-gideb kollu, ipokresija, u piety falza.
Imkien fl-erba’ evanġelji ma naqraw xi ħaġa dwar Ġesù li japprova u/jew jittollera d-dnub.
Dan huwa impossibbli! Għax Ġesù kif seta’ jidħol f’patt mal-mewt, li hu ghadu ta’ Alla, billi tapprova d-dnub, li hu frott il-mewt? Nru, Ġesù ma ħallax id-dnub u ma kompromessx mad-dnub, imma Ġesù sejjaħ lin-nies biex Indiema u t-tneħħija tad-dnub.
Ġesù feda lill-umanità mill-qawwa tax-xitan
Ġesù għajjat u qal, Hu li jemmen fija, ma temminx fija, imma fuq Dak li bagħatni. U min jara lili jara lil Dak li bagħatni. Jien ġej dawl fid-dinja, li kull min jemmen fuqi m'għandux joqgħod fid-dlam. U jekk xi ħadd jisma’ kliemi, u nemmnux le, Jien ma niġġudikahx: għax ma ġejtx biex niġġudika lid-dinja, imma biex insalvaw id-dinja. Min iwarrabni, u ma jirċievix kliemi, għandu wieħed li jiġġudikah: il-kelma li kellimt, l-istess għandu jiġġudikah fl-aħħar jum. Għax jien ma tkellimtx minni nnifsi; imma l-Missier li bagħatni, hu tani kmandament, dak li għandi ngħid, u x’għandi nitkellem. U naf li l-kmandament Tiegħu huwa l-ħajja ta’ dejjem: kulma nitkellem għalhekk, bħalma qalli l-Missier, hekk nitkellem (John 12:44-50)
Ġesù ma ġiex fuq l-art biex jiġġudika lin-nies. Għax kien għadu mhux iż-żmien Tiegħu li jiġġudika lin-nies. Imma Ġesù ġie biex jagħti lin-nies l-opportunità li jiġu salvati, permezz tal-indiema u t-tneħħija tad-dnub u bis-sottomissjoni lejn Alla u r-rieda Tiegħu (Mattew 9:13, Mark 2:17, Luqa 5:32).
Ġesù wera, dak tissodisfa l-liġi ma kienx iebes kif deher. Madankollu, kollox jiddependi fuq element wieħed u li kien l-imħabba għal Alla.
Mhux kulħadd kien iħobb lil Alla daqs Ġesù. Għalhekk, mhux kulħadd kien lest li jagħti ħajtu stess u x-xewqat u x-xewqat tal-ġisem minħabba Alla u jissottometti ruħu għal Alla u r-rieda Tiegħu.
Ġesù ma kompromessx mad-dnub
Is-sinjali kollha, jistaqsi, u xogħlijiet qawwija kienu interessanti għal ħafna nies, imma ma ġabux lin-nies għall-indiema. Minħabba l-għemejjel setgħana li Ġesù kien għamel fil-bliet ta 'Korażin, Betsaida, u Kafarnahum ma ġabx lin-nies għall-indiema (Mattew 11:20-24, Luqa 10:13-16).
Anke l-kliem ta’ Ġesù ma ġabux ħafna għall-indiema. Minħabba l-eluf ta’ nies kollha, li segwew lil Ġesù temporanjament, minħabba s-sinjali, jistaqsi, u xogħlijiet setgħana Ġesù għamel, or because they needed healing themselves or another miracle in their lives, only His twelve disciples were left and remained with Jesus (John 6:66-69).
The others couldn’t bear the words of Jesus, because they were hard and therefore they left Jesus.
Many were not able to bear the Light, since they were confronted with their sin and convinced of their sin.
Since many didn’t want to repent of their sin, but loved their sin and therefore wanted to persevere in sin, they did everything that was in their power to extinguish the Light. But since it was not God’s time yet, they were not able to extinguish the Light in the beginning.
Fl-aħħarnett, il-poplu, li kien tad-dlam, thought that they had extinguished the Light once and for all, minn crucifying Jesus Christ.
While one Light was only just extinguished, 120 lights were lit
Imma minflok, they had extinguished the Light forever and they could continue their lives in darkness without restraint, they had achieved the opposite. Għax 50 jiem wara l-Għid the Holy Spirit came to the earth and 120 new Lights were born.
Of all those thousands of people, who met Jesus and temporarily followed Him, biss 120 were left.
Dawn 120 were united together in prayer in the upper room in Jerusalem, waiting for the promise, which Jesus had given them of the coming of the other Comforter, l-Ispirtu s-Santu.
And it didn’t stop with these 120 nies. Because these 120 believers did what Jesus had commanded them to do. And because they had received the power of the Holy Spirit, they were able to be witnesses of Jesus Christ and preach His death and resurrection to the people. From that moment many souls were saved and added daily to the Church.
Then opened he their understanding, biex jifhmu l-iskrittura, U qalilhom, Hekk hu miktub, u hekk kellu Kristu jbati, u tqum mill-imwiet it-tielet jum: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, jibda f’Ġerusalemm. U intom xhieda ta’ dawn l-affarijiet (Luqa 24:45-48).
The Holy Spirit walks in love
Just like Jesus walked in the love of God and called the lost, who belonged to God’s people and reproved them of sin and called them to repentance, the new creation in whom the Holy Spirit dwelled did the same thing. The new creation also walked in the love of God and reproved the people of sin. They called fallen man, li kien tad-dlam, to repentance and the removal of sin.
When they heard these things, they held their peace, u gglorifikat lil Alla, tgħid, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life (Atti 11:18)
Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ (Atti 20:21)
Imma l-ewwel wriethom minn Damasku, u f’Ġerusalemm, u mal-xtut kollha tal-Lhudija, u mbagħad lill-Ġentili, li għandhom jindem u jduru lejn Alla, u jagħmlu xogħlijiet jiltaqgħu għall-indiema (Atti 26:20)
This gospel was first preached and brought to God’s carnal people. But because of God’s love and grace, the gospel was also preached and brought to the Gentiles. Bil-grazzja ta’ Alla, salvation came to the Gentiles and through regeneration, they were circumcised in Christ and belonged to God’s people.
The new man has been made righteous and holy
The new man was justified by the blood of Jesus and therefore the new man was made righteous and holy, which means that the new man was separated from the world unto God.
The new man didn’t walk in darkness after the lusts and desires of the flesh and didn’t produce the fruit for death, li huwa dnub, aktar, bħal (s)he produced before his/her repentance when the flesh was still alive and death reigned in his/her life.
Dawk, who had become a new creation, had repented and were baptized and born of God. They were redeemed from the power of death, who reigns in the flesh.
Death didn’t reign in their lives and they no longer belonged to the kingdom of darkness. But they were born again and transferred to the Kingdom of God and therefore they belonged through regeneration to the Life.
Since they belonged to the Life and no longer to the Death, they didn’t produce the fruit of death, li huwa dnub, in their lives anymore, but they produced the fruit of the Spirit and the fruit of righteousness.
The new man doesn’t compromise with sin
L-Alla ta ’missirijietna qajjem lil Ġesù, lil min int slew u mdendlin fuq siġra. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, għal biex tagħti l-indiema lill-Iżrael, u maħfra tad-dnubiet. U aħna x-xhieda Tiegħu ta’ dawn l-affarijiet; u hekk hu wkoll l-Ispirtu s-Santu, li Alla ta lil dawk li jobduh (Atti 5:30-32).
Just like God and Jesus, the new creations also didn’t make a covenant with the dead by compromising with sin.
They didn’t allow sin but they reproved the people of sin.
They confronted the people with their sins and called them to repentance and the removal of sin.
Wara kollox, they had received the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit can only dwell in those, who are obedient to God and His Word.
The grace of God through the sacrifice of Jesus and His blood couldn’t be used as an excuse to persevere in sin. The Christians back then, knew this very well.
They were spiritual and therefore they saw, just like God and Jesus by the Holy Spirit what sin is and what sin does with people (Aqra wkoll: ‘X'inhu d-dnub?‘, ‘Id-dnub qatel lil Ġesù‘ U ‘Tista’ tkun kompliċi fid-dnub ta’ sħabu fit-twemmin?‘)
Għalhekk, they didn’t preach a message of imħabba foloz and false grace that compromises with sin and encourages the people to stay carnal. Since the true love and grace of God doesn’t compromise with sin, but hates sin and removes sin.
The old man compromises with sin
But an unspiritual man, who thinks like the world and is led by his senses, emozzjonijiet, and feelings is ignorant about the things which are above, but only searches and looks for the things which are on this earth.
L-anzjan, who lives after the flesh is unspiritual and is led by the ruler of this world; Ix-Xitan, who has blinded the mind of this world with his lies.
The devil only has one purpose and that is to kill and destroy every person on this earth. The way he does that is through his seducing lies, which look godly and loving but in reality, destroy the people.
Many churches have compromised with sin
Matul is-snin, through the deviousness of the devil, the Church has allowed the spirit of this world to enter and has become world-like. Many churches don’t rely on the Word and the Holy Spirit but have entered sideways and rely on the words of the world.
Their prideful minds assume that they know it better than God and because of that mindset they have adjusted the Word to the will and the feelings, emozzjonijiet, xewqat, and desires of the old man (ħolqien antik) u d-dinja.
Many preachers, who preach behind the pulpit or enter the living rooms via (soċjali) media on Sundays, are not born again and don’t have the Holy Spirit. Minflok, they serve the kingdom of darkness, since they allow people to live in sin (Aqra wkoll: ‘Jeqirdu l-opri ta’ Alla minflok l-opri tax-xitan‘).
They don’t deal with the problem and don’t call the people to repentance, but they allow sin to have its way.
They wrap the lies of the devil, with their humanism. Therefore their words look piously and it seems like they only want the best for their fellow man and that they love their neighbor as themselves. But nothing could be further from the truth.
Death reigns through sin
Because of the fact that the Church has not closed her gates for sin, but allowed and embraced the world and its sin, satan has taken his place in the Church and has established his throne (Aqra wkoll: ‘The church is prepared for the antichrist‘ U ‘It-tron ta’ satana‘).
By allowing sin and satan’s power to enter, many believers have been affected and defiled with sin and have developed the same mindset as the world.
Many don’t spend time in the Word and hardly pray. They have become lukewarm for God and the things of His Kingdom. They will only be interested when supernatural manifestations take place. And since the devil has established his throne in many churches, he gives exactly what the people want to see and especially feel and does great signs and wonders.
Many have become indifferent toward sin and don’t mind sin. They even persevere in sin themselves and/or encourage and stand by those who persevere in sin. How do they do that? By not calling them to repentance, but allowing them to sin.
Through the ignorance of many leaders, who approve of everything to keep the church members satisfied, so that they keep coming to the church, and keep living after the flesh, the church member also has become ignorant about the will of God and also approve of everything and keep walking after the flesh.
Mingħajr ma jkunu jafu, they are on their way to the abyss, only because of all these lies of the devil.
L-imħabba u l-grazzja ta 'Alla ma jikkompromettux mad-dnub
But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? Jew tiddisprezza l-għana tat-tjubija u t-tolleranza u s-sabar tiegħu; ma tafx li t-tjubija ta’ Alla twassalk għall-indiema? But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Min jagħti lil kull bniedem skont għemilu: Lilhom li bil-kontinwazzjoni paċenzja fil-ġid ifittxu l-glorja u l-unur u l-immortalità, ħajja ta’ dejjem: Imma lil dawk li huma kontroversjali, u tobdix il-verità, imma jobdu l-inġustizzja, rabja u rabja, Tribulazzjoni u dieqa, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, tal-Lhudi l-ewwel, u wkoll tal-Ġentili; Imma glorja, unur, u l-paċi, lil kull bniedem li jaħdem il-ġid, lill-Lhudi l-ewwel, u wkoll lill-Ġentili: Għax m’hemm l-ebda rispett lejn il-persuni m’Alla. Għax dawk kollha li dinbu mingħajr il-liġi, jitħassru wkoll mingħajr il-liġi: u dawk kollha li dinbu fil-liġi għandhom jiġu ġġudikati bil-liġi; (Għax mhux dawk li jisimgħu l-liġi huma biss quddiem Alla, imma dawk li jagħmlu l-liġi għandhom ikunu ġustifikati (Rumani 2:2-13)
L-imħabba u l-grazzja ta 'Alla ma jikkompromettux mad-dnub, għall-kuntrarju. L-imħabba u l-grazzja ta’ Alla sejħiet għall-indiema u t-tneħħija tad-dnub. The love and grace of God deals with the sinful nature, li fih il-mewt issaltan u dan jipproduċi l-frott tal-mewt, li huwa dnub.
Kulħadd, who perseveres in sin and is not willing to repent, belongs to the death, since the person produces the fruit of death and is on his/her way to hell.
X'jiġri fil-qasam spiritwali, we see happening all around us in the natural realm. The bad thing is, that people are more concerned about what happens in the natural realm than what happens in the spiritual realm.
The call to repentance to the Church
But if the Church repents of her works and return to God and return to God and shall love and serve God with all her heart, moħħok, ruħ, u s-saħħa, and if the fear of the Lord returns and the Word becomes the highest Authority in the Church again, and the Holy Spirit will dwell in the new creations, li flimkien huma l-Knisja, then a change shall take place, which will become visible in the natural realm.
Għalhekk, let the Church stop preaching these false doctrines, li huma gideb. Let the Church stop preaching a false message, by misusing the love and grace of God to keep the old man alive and allow them to persevere in sin and tolerate sin, so that they don’t experience any resistance or persecution of the world, but they can live the same lives like the world.
The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead (Proverbji 21:16)
As long as the Church doesn’t repent and doesn’t remove her sin, but compromises with sin, the Church shall remain rooted in darkness and death shall reign in the Church. The Church shall not be a congregation of the living, but shall be a congregation of the dead. And when the time comes the Church shall reap what she has sown (dnub), li hija qerda, instead of eternal life by sowing righteousness (Aqra wkoll: ‘To whom does the Church bend her roots?‘).
‘Kun il-melħ tal-art’
