Свака Божја реч која је написана у Библији садржи знање, мудрост, и живот бога. Божја реч је истина и открива А.о. the secrets of the Kingdom of God, закон Духа, Божја воља, добро и зло, Христе, the dominion and inheritance of the sons of God (Мужјаци и жене), and how every son of God should walk on earth. Jesus is the living Word of God and everyone, који је постао нова творевина у Христу, should become like Jesus. Therefore God’s Word is a Mirror for the new creation; нови човек, 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
Бог, који је у разним временима и на различите начине говорио у прошлости оцима преко пророка, Он нам је у овим последњим данима говорио преко свог Сина, Whom He hath appointed Heir of all things, по коме је Он створио и светове; Који је светлост славе Његове, и експресну слику Његове личности, и све одржава речју силе Своје, када је Он сам очистио наше грехе, седе са десне стране Величанства на висини; Бити много бољи од анђела, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent Name than they (Јеврејима 1:1-4)
God’s Word is the express image of God and is the only tangible source of truth from God on earth. Исус је жива Реч Божија, who came in the flesh, у подобију човека, на земљу. Исус нам је показао, how the new creation; the new man ought to walk on earth.
Баш као Исус; the living Word represented God and His will and was the express Image of the Father, the new creation represents Jesus Christ and Његова воља, 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 слика Божија (Јохн 1:5, Римљанима 8:29, 2 Коринћанима 4:4, Ефесцима 4:24, Колошанима 1:15, Јеврејима 1:1-4).
Through the process of sanctification and the обнављање ума твога 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, који си у Христу, 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; сине Божији.
Focused on the provisions of God
Али нажалост, 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 purpose of the Bible јесте. Њима, 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, као Исус. 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 (материјал) 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, ‘A technical faith’, 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
Видећи да сте очистили душе своје у послушности истини кроз Духа на нелику љубав према браћи, гледајте да љубите једни друге чистим срцем жарко: Поново се родити, не од трулежног семена, али нетрулежног, речју Божијом, који живи и остаје у векове (1 Петер 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, светлост, и живот. 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 (Прочитајте такође: Четири врсте верника).
Not hearers only, but doers of the Word
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. Јер ако неко буде слушалац речи, а не извршилац, он је као човек који гледа своје природно лице у чаши: Јер он види себе, и иде својим путем, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. Али ко гледа у савршени закон слободе, и наставља се у томе, он није забораван слушалац, већ извршилац посла, овај човек ће бити благословен у свом делу (Јамес 1:22-25)
Reč kaže, да су то, 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 воља Божја јесте, 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, крст, регенерација, the position and inheritance of the new creations, и воља Божја, 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, знање, и мудрост света, they deceive themselves and remain the стара креација, who lives in bondage to the world (Краљевство таме (Прочитајте такође: Слушаоци против оних који раде).
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? Очигледно није.
нажалост, има много, 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.
Нови човек, 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.
Јер који су сагрешили без закона, без закона ће и погинути: and as many, as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (Јер нису они који слушају закон праведни пред Богом, а извршиоци закона биће оправдани (Римљанима 2: 12-13)
O wratched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body if this death? Захваљујем Богу кроз Исуса Христа Господа нашег. Па онда са умом, И сам служим закону Божијем; али са телом закон греха. Због тога сада нема осуде који су у Христу Исусу, који не хода након меса, Али после духа. За закон о духу живота у Христу Исус ме је ослободио закона греха и смрти. За оно што закон није могао, у томе што је било слабо кроз тело, Бог шаље сопственог Сина у обличју тела грешног, и за грех, осудио грех у телу: Да се праведност закона испуни у нама, који не хода након меса, Али после духа. Јер они који су након што месо падају на памет ствари меса; Али они који траже дух ствари духа (Римљанима 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.
