Naha dewa nyarios, thou shall not and why did Jesus say, anjeun bakal? Dina perjanjian kolot, God had to deal with the old carnal man, who walks after the flesh and whose spirit is death. Since the old man belongs to the generation of fallen man, God knew there was no good present in the flesh (awak sareng jiwa), Tapi jahat. Therefore the old man with his sinful nature isn’t able to do good. Dina perjanjian kolot, there were only a few people, who yielded to God and obeyed His commandments sareng kecap na. Kusabab kanyataanna, that the nature of the flesh was evil, Saur Gusti, Thou shall not. Because the flesh always contradicts the spirit and always wants to do those things that go against the bakal dewa.
God versus the devil
Pikiran karanjangan nyaéta permusuhan ngalawan Gusti: sabab teu tunduk kana hukum Allah, saleresna teu tiasa (Urang Romawi 8:7)
The devil will salawasna rebel against the Word of God and His will. When God commands you to henteu do something, the devil shall always say the opposite and shall encourage you to do it. The devil shall always rebel against God’s will and do those things which are an abomination to God.
It’s all about who you want to obey. The devil and your flesh? Or God, Yesus, and the Holy Spirit and the Spirit? (Baca ogé: ‘Budak mana anjeun?')
Thou shall not vs Thou shall
When your flesh with its sinful nature is crucified and when your spirit is raised from the dead and the Holy Spirit abides in you, anjeun geus narima fitrah Allah. You have become a son of God and belong to Him and you shall do everything you can to please Him.
Since your nature has changed, you shall no longer walk after the flesh and serve the devil, but you shall walk after the Spirit and serve Jesus Christ and the Father. Kusabab éta, you shall no longer live after the law of sin and death, but you shall live after the law of the Spirit.
When you are born again in Jesus Christ and have become ciptaan anyar, God won’t have to say to you: “Thou shall not”, because His Holy Spirit; His nature dwells in you. Therefore you will automatically do His will. You shall walk after the Spirit, Saha nu nyebutkeun: “Thou shall”.
Lamun anjeun leumpang sanggeus Roh, anjeun bakal leumpang di parentah Yesus. ceuk Yesus: “The bakal…”, because He knew that lalaki anyar is born of God and has God’s nature and is able to minuhan hukum Allah, anu kersaning Allah.
