Khi bạn chống lại Lời Chúa và sống một cuộc đời đầy tội lỗi và gian ác, Chúa nói, rằng bạn là một kẻ ngốc. But the world says the exact opposite. They don’t understand born again Christians, Ai là con trai của Chúa (nam và nữ) và bước đi theo Thánh Linh. Therefore if you are born again, you have become a fool for the world, because the world shall not understand Bạn.
Are you bold enough to become a fool for the world?
Nhưng con người tự nhiên không nhận được những điều thuộc về Thánh Linh của Đức Chúa Trời: vì họ thật ngu ngốc đối với anh ấy: Anh ấy cũng không thể biết họ, bởi vì chúng được phân biệt tinh thần (1 Corinithians 2:14)
The world doesn’t understand born again believers. Because the natural man, người đi theo xác thịt, can’t comprehend the things of the Spirit. That’s why you become a fool for the world as soon as you become born again and walk after the Spirit.
Lời Chúa; Chúa Giêsu, là sự ngu ngốc đối với thế giới. Because the world doesn’t understand the Bible. They consider the Bible as some kind of history book, that contradicts itself.
Even carnal Christians think that way. They think the Bible is a dull book. As soon as they begin to read the Bible, they become sleepy and because they are led by their feelings, they give into their sleepy feelings and stop reading.
But when you become born again and the Holy Spirit abides in you, the Holy Spirit shall teach you in the Word of God and the words of God will become alive to you. Đúng, the dead letter shall become alive.
Only when your spirit is raised from the death and by the Holy Spirit, you will be able to understand God’s Word.
You shall have a desire to have communion with God, qua Lời Ngài. The Bible is not a dull history book anymore, but it has become a fascinating Book, which contains the truth and gives eternal life.
The Word is your daily Bread and it is your Compass and your Guide in life.
The preaching of the cross is the power of God
Vì sự rao giảng về thập tự giá đối với họ là sự ngu ngốc bị hư mất; nhưng đối với chúng ta là những người được cứu thì đó là quyền năng của Đức Chúa Trời (1 Cô-rinh-tô 1:18)
The preaching of the cross is foolishness for the world, for those who have turned their backs to God and don’t want anything to do with Him and shall eventually perish. But to the sons of God, who are saved, the preaching of the cross is the power of God. Therefore if you preach the cross, you shall be a fool for the world.
The wisdom of this world diametrically opposes the wisdom of God
The wisdom of the world diametrically opposes the wisdom of God. According to the Word, the two have nothing in common. , bởi vì đó là những gì Lời nói. Nowadays everything must be scientifically proven, before someone believes.
The world relies on science and put their trust in science. But what is science? What is science based upon? Is science based upon truth, upon facts, or upon assumptions?
When we go back to the roots of science, we see that science originates from Greek philosophy. We all know that Greek philosophy is the wisdom of mankind, the Greek, và không phải của Chúa
Philosophy is translated from the Greek word ‘philosophia’, which means ‘love for wisdom’.
Kinh thánh nói, that the wisdom of God is foolishness for the Greek.
Therefore the science of this world and the wisdom of God can’t be joined together. Because philosophers have natural wisdom, and God’s wisdom is not natural, but it’s spiritual (Đọc thêm: Kinh thánh và khoa học có đi đôi với nhau không?).
If science is really trustworthy, as the world says, then why do scientists revise many scientific theories, which are based on scientific evidence, thường xuyên?
People want to have proof first, trước khi họ tin something. Do đó, many scientists, Ai nói họ là Kitô hữu, want to turn God’s Word into a science of man. They want to prove the BIble and the existence of God and Jesus scientifically. But why are they trying so hard to prove the Bible scientifically?
If faith must be scientifically proven, it’s no longer faith
If faith must be scientifically proven, then you can’t call it faith anymore. Because on what is faith based upon? On Jesus Christ, Lời sống? Or on theories of man?
The Spirit shall never become flesh and the flesh shall never become Spirit. They will always represent two different worlds. It is either the one, or the other. The Spirit shall always strive against the flesh, and the flesh shall always strive against the Spirit.
Therefore stop trying to prove the Bible scientifically. It is God’s Word and His Word is true and is settled forever. You either believe it, hoặc bạn không (Đọc thêm: Lời Đức Chúa Trời được giải quyết mãi mãi).
Preaching the crucified Christ brings man to repentance
Paul didn’t have to prove himself against the Greek. Paul preached the crucified Christ, which brought them to ăn năn. Paul didn’t came with philosophical evidence, nor with enticing words, but with the Word in power.
The truth of the Word, the crucified Christ and the power of God brought them to repentance and not Paul’s carnal wisdom and knowledge.
When you think, that you can bring people (including scientists) to repentance by explaining the Bible scientifically or by a scientific approach, you will never succeed. Maybe there are one or two exceptions, nhưng chỉ thế thôi.
A sinner shall repent and shall believe by the hearing of the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit, Who convicts the sinner of sin.
The Holy Spirit shall reveal to man their sinful state, which shall draw them to repentance. The Kingdom of God is not in word, nhưng nắm quyền lực (1 Cô-rinh-tô 4:20).
This shall never change, because God is the same yesterday, Hôm nay, và mãi mãi hơn thế nữa.
‘Hãy là muối của trái đất’
