Who doesn’t enjoy a good sauce with his food? People have become so used to the sauce, that they can’t live without it. There’s nothing exciting about food without sauce. It doesn’t matter what you eat or if the food is well prepared or not, if the sauce is good the food is good. The sauce adds flavor and determines the quality and overall taste of the dish. This is also seen in Christianity. Christians love pouring a Christian sauce over the things of this world. Hindi mahalaga, whether something is forbidden and evil according to the Bible, they just pour a Christian sauce over the things of this world and make it approved. And so they Christianize the things of this world to make them approved and acceptable for Christians. Gayunpaman, people can Christianize whatever they want, but does that make a difference to God?
The love for the world
Most Christians still love the world and enjoy the things of the world. Because of their love for the world, they don’t distance themselves from the things and works of this world, na nagmula sa kaharian ng kadiliman.
Hindi, they want to hold on to the things of the world. Christians want to do the same things and live the same lives as the people, na nabibilang sa mundo.
Instead of bringing forth fruits that meet their pagsisisi and walking in holiness (to be set apart from the world and dedicated unto God), and doing what God says and dying to their flesh and removing the things of this world from their lives, they copy the things of the world and pour a Christian sauce over it. Because according to them, this Christian sauce is supposed to make everything approved and acceptable.
Hindi mahal ang mundo, Ni ang mga bagay na nasa mundo. Kung may sinumang tao na mahal ang mundo, Ang pag -ibig ng Ama ay wala sa kanya. Para sa lahat ng nasa mundo, ang pita ng laman, at ang pagnanasa ng mga mata, at ang pagmamataas ng buhay, ay hindi sa Ama, ngunit mula sa mundo. And the world passes away, at ang pagnanasa nito: but he that does the will of God abides for ever
1 John 2:15-17
Does the Christian sauce makes everything approved?
Christians want to do everything they see the world do, including the entertainment of the world. And to ease their mind and conscience, they have found a way to do that. They just put the word ‘Christian’ in front of it. Because using the word ‘Christian’ and Christianizing it, you make it approved and acceptable for Christians to do.
Many Christians are no longer innovators of God, but imitators of the world. They copy all the things that the world has to offer and pour out a Christian sauce over all evil things and Christianize them and appropriate them.
Halimbawa, there are Christian mga doktor, Kristiyano mga psychologist at mga psychiatrist, Kristiyano acupuncturists, Kristiyano Reiki practitioners, Kristiyano massage therapists, Kristiyano martial arts, Kristiyano yoga, Christian prayer or healing bracelets, Christian astrology, Kristiyano Halloween, Kristiyano Mga tattoo, Christian tattoo shops, Christian dating sites, Kristiyano bakla associations, Christian Romans/Phantasy and Science fiction, Christian talent shows, Christian dance competitions, Christian comedians, Christians magicians/illusionists (gospel magicians), Mga Christian tarot card, Kristiyano (mga anak) teatro, Christian music concerts, Christian festivals, Kristiyano (musika) awards, Christian actors, Christian amusement parks, Christian DJs, Christian dance events, Christian bars, Christian nightclubs, Christian……(fill out yourself).
All these things are copied and adapted from the world and Christianized by people, na tinatawag ang kanilang sarili na mga Kristiyano.
These things have one thing in common, they derive from the wisdom and knowledge of the carnal man (through the influence of demonic spirits from the darkness) and are meant for the soul and body (laman) ng taong makalaman.
They act from the flesh with or without the use of natural methods and natural means with the purpose of restoring, making whole, fulfilling the lusts and desires, at entertaining the flesh.
It has nothing to do with the spiritual bagong tao and the source is not God and the Kingdom of Heaven. But it has everything to do with the carnal old man and the devil and the world (ang kaharian ng kadiliman) as its source.
How have Christians found a way to keep their own lives and live after the flesh?
Christians have found a way to keep their own lives and not have to ialay ang kanilang buhay and live like the world and that’s by pouring out the Christian sauce over the works of darkness to make it good. They have Christianized the works of darkness by putting the word ‘Christian’ in front of it. Sa ganitong paraan, they won’t have to die to self and tanggalin ang matandang karnal na tao but they can continue their lives as the old man.
And so they live like the carnal old man and every now and then they apply Bible verses and promises for the new man to their lives.
The devil is more than willing to help the continuation of the old carnal man. Therefore he gives (pansamantala) pagpapagaling, soulish supernatural manifestations that seem spiritual, tagumpay, kasaganaan, kasikatan, at kayamanan sa mundo. Kung tutuusin, the devil is the prince and ruler of this world.
It is the devil’s ultimate pleasure to give people what they want and toaliwin sila and respond to their feelings and emotions, as long as they live from his source and do his works.
Sa buong taon, the devil has succeeded in tempting many believers with his lies and making them believe that adopting the things of the world and Christianizing them, isn’t wrong at all.
The devil has even appeared to many Christians as an angel of light through dreams, mga pangitain, mga hula, and thoughts in their mind and convinced them and made them believe that God approves the gawa ng diyablo, which are mentioned in the Bible as sin.
Sa ganitong paraan, the devil has led many people into his trap. The devil misled them through his lies and has taken control of many lives.
Many Christians think they are free while they are bound
Christians think that by Christianizing the things of this world and by doing them, they are free, samantalang sa realidad, they are not free at all! Sila ay nakatali sa pamamagitan ng kasalanan patungo sa kaharian ng kadiliman at namumuhay sa paghihimagsik sa Diyos bilang pagsunod sa diyablo.
Ginagawa nila ang parehong mga gawa tulad ng sa mundo at namumuhay sa parehong buhay. Samakatuwid, halos walang pagkakaiba sa pagitan ng mga mananampalataya at hindi naniniwala. Ang pinagkaiba lang ay sinasabi nilang sila ay mga Kristiyano, pumunta sa simbahan isang beses sa isang linggo, basahin ang Bibliya paminsan-minsan, at magdasal ng maiikling mga panalangin ng laman.
Dahil sa katotohanan, na nabubuhay sila tulad ng mundo, nararanasan nila ang parehong mga bagay tulad ng mundo at may parehong mga problema.
Maraming Kristiyano ang hindi nasisiyahan, masayahin, at masaya pa. sa halip, hindi sila nasisiyahan, pinindot, Pagod na, at makayanan ang mga pagkabalisa at depresyon. Wala silang kapayapaan ngunit nag-aalala, balisa, nakakatakot, at nakakaranas ng stress.
Ang lahat ng ito ay dahil kabilang pa rin sila sa mundo at/o naghahasik sa laman.
Ang sabi ng Salita, na kung maghahasik ka sa laman, ikaw ay aani mula sa laman. Kapag ginawa mo ang mga bagay sa mundong ito, aanihin mo rin ang mga bagay ng mundong ito (Basahin din: Kung ano ang iyong itinanim ay iyong aanihin).
The Christian sauce doesn’t change anything about the works and source
You can pour out a Christian sauce over the carnal works of the flesh and Christianize the things of the world by putting the word ‘Christian’ in front of it, but you won’t change anything about the works and source.
All the things of the world remain works, which derive from the knowledge, karunungan, and power of the kingdom of the darkness.
If you want to keep doing the things of the world and live like the world, then why did you magsisi? What have you repented of?
If you want to keep doing the things of the world, then just do it. But don’t use the word ‘Christian’, and don’t Christianize the evil things of darkness! Because by doing that, you defile God’s holy Name and mock Jesus Christ and His Body. At iyon mismo ang nais ng diyablo.
Separated for God and His Kingdom
Ito ang sinasabi ko, at magpatotoo sa Panginoon, Na ngayon ay naglalakad na hindi tulad ng ibang mga Hentil na naglalakad, sa walang kabuluhan ng kanilang isip, Ang pagkakaroon ng pag -unawa ay nagdilim, pagiging nakahiwalay sa buhay ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng kamangmangan na nasa kanila, Dahil sa pagkabulag ng kanilang puso: Sino ang nakaraan na pakiramdam ay nagbigay sa kanilang sarili sa labis na kalungkutan, Upang gumana ang lahat ng karumihan na may kasakiman (Mga Taga-Efeso 4:17-19)
In the Old Covenant and the New Covenant God commanded His people to separate themselves from the world. He commanded to not get involved and fellowship with the evil works of the world (kadiliman).
This doesn’t mean that you should start an isolated community, because God has placed His people on this earth.
God has placed His people on this earth to be a saksi ni Jesucristo, walk in His dominion, at ipangaral at itatag ang Kanyang Kaharian sa lupa.
Samakatuwid, your purpose is to walk in the dominion of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit and preach the truth and expose the lies of the devil. Kaya iyon, sinners become conscious of their sinful state, and by hearing the truth they can repent, get born again, and be saved and delivered from the kingdom of darkness and death or not.
Ang Diyos ay mayroon hindi put His people on the earth to get involved with the spirits of the world and be led by the worldly spirits and be partakers of the things of the world (kadiliman).
How can you save sinners from the kingdom of darkness if you still walk after the flesh in the kingdom of darkness and be a partaker of her works and live in sin? (Basahin din: ‘Kung ang mga Kristiyano ay namumuhay tulad ng sanlibutan, ano ang dapat pagsisihan ng mundo?)
Christians shouldn’t fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness but reprove the works of darkness
Para sa iyo minsan kadiliman, ngunit ngayon ay liwanag ka na sa Panginoon: Maglakad bilang mga bata ng ilaw: (Para sa bunga ng Espiritu ay nasa lahat ng kabutihan at katuwiran at katotohanan;) Ang pagpapatunay kung ano ang katanggap -tanggap sa Panginoon. At huwag kayong makiisa sa mga walang bungang gawa ng kadiliman, kundi sawayin mo sila. Sapagka't nakakahiyang magsalita man lamang ng mga bagay na ginagawa nila sa lihim. Ngunit ang lahat ng bagay na sinasaway ay inihahayag ng liwanag: sapagka't anuman ang naghahayag ay liwanag (Mga Taga-Efeso 5:8-13)
Ang mga Kristiyano ay hindi dapat magpatibay at gawing Kristiyano ang mga bagay ng mundo. Ang mga Kristiyano ay hindi dapat makisama sa mga walang bungang gawa ng kadiliman, ngunit dapat silang lumakad bilang mga anak ng liwanag at lumakad sa katotohanan at sawayin ang mga gawa ng kadiliman.
Mapapagalitan mo lamang ang mga kasinungalingan at gawa ng mundo kapag ipinanganak kang muli at isuot mo ang bagong lalaki at lumakad kasunod ng Espiritu sa pagsunod sa Salita. Dahil hangga't nananatili kang hindi espirituwal, lalakad ka sa kadiliman at hindi mo makikilala ang mga gawa ng kadiliman.
Sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya kay Jesucristo at sa pamamagitan ng pagbabagong-buhay, ikaw ay inilipat mula sa kadiliman tungo sa liwanag. Kaya't magagawa mong makilala ang mabuti at masama at sawayin ang mga gawa ng kadiliman. Tutulungan at gagabayan ka ng Salita at ng Espiritu Santo.
itigil ang pagbuhos ng Christian sauce!
Maging seryoso tayo sa Salita ng Diyos at gawin kung ano si Jesus iniutos gawin ng mga mananampalataya.
Itigil ang pagbuhos ng Kristiyanong sarsa sa lahat ng mga gawa ng kadiliman. Alisin ang mga kasalanan, na mga gawa ng laman bilang pagsunod sa diyablo, at gumawa ng katuwiran, na mga gawa ng Espiritu bilang pagsunod sa Diyos. Upang ang Pangalan ng Panginoon ay hindi madungisan sa pamamagitan ng mga gawa at buhay ng laman, ngunit itataas natin si Hesus at luwalhatiin ang Diyos sa pamamagitan ng ating buhay ayon sa Espiritu.
‘Maging asin ng lupa’
