Có gì sai với Giáo hội?

Khi chúng ta nhìn vào tình trạng của nhà thờ, chúng ta có thể kết luận rằng có điều gì đó không ổn với nhà thờ. Để tìm hiểu chuyện gì đang xảy ra với Giáo hội, we should look first at the blueprint of the Church. We can find the blueprint of the church in the Bible and God’s will concerning the church. Let’s look at what Jesus says about the church and the position of the church on earth.

What does the word church mean?

The meaning of the church is not what most people think the word church means. They think that the church refers to a building, but that is not what the word church means. The word church derives from the Greek word ‘ekklesía’; ‘ek’ en ‘klēsis’, có nghĩa là: ‘out of’ and ‘a calling’ (kaleõ, ‘to call’). The word ‘ekklesía’ was used by the Greeks to indicate a body of citizens, who were gathered to discuss public affairs (Hành vi 19:39).

The Church of the Old Covenant

Đây là anh ấy, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us (Hành vi 7:38)

The first time in the Bible, we read about the church or assembly is in the Old Testament. When the people of God were gathered together in the wilderness after God led them out of Egypt.

God had redeemed His people from the oppression and slavery of Pharaoh. They were no longer slaves of Pharaoh, but they had become God’s people.

The people of Israel were called and set apart by God. They were separated from the Gentiles.

God wanted His people to walk after His words and commandments; theo ý muốn của Ngài, and not after the words and commandments of the pagan cultures.

What does Jesus say about the church and the foundation?

Trong Matthew 16:18-19, Jesus spoke about His church and after Peter confessed that Jesus is the Christ, Vị Nam Tử của Thượng Đế hằng sống, Jesus said that He would build His church upon this rock. This meant, that Jesus would build His church on the confession of Peter, and His apostles, that Jesus is the Christ the Son of the living God. This is the foundation of the Church. (Đọc thêm: nhà thờ được xây dựng trên nền tảng nào?)

Jesus builds His Church and not the people.

The only thing that people have to do, is stay obedient and faithful to Jesus Christ; Lời, ở lại trong Lời, confess His Word, keep His Word, and be a doer of the Word and not depart from the Word.

Jesus promises His Church, that the gates of hell shall not gates of hell shall not prevail against them.

He also promised that He gives His church the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven and that whatsoever the church shall bind on earth, sẽ bị ràng buộc trên thiên đường, and whatsoever the church shall loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven. (Đọc thêm: ‘Chúa Giêsu muốn nói gì khi nói buộc và mở?‘).

The church is the body of Jesus Christ

The church is a gathering of born-again believers. As long as you are not born again (sinh ra từ nước và Thánh Thần), you are not a part of the (universal) nhà thờ. You can visit a local church and attend church services and maybe even become a member of a local church, but these things will not give you access to the Body of Jesus Christ.

The only way to enter the Body of Christ is through regeneration. You can compare this with natural birth.

Through natural birth, you become part of a family. There are all kinds of artificial ways to become part of a family, but only through natural birth, you will carry the d.n.a. of the family.

It’s the same thing with the Body of Christ.

Khi bạn được tái sinh trong tinh thần, you will be born of the Spirit of God and carry His d.n.a.

The Church is, Vì vậy, a gathering of born-again believers; con trai của Chúa (Điều này áp dụng cho cả nam và nữ), who have God’s nature and come together, to grow up in the Word and the knowledge of God’s will.

It is the purpose of the sons of God to spiritually mature and grow up in the image of Christ and walk as Jesus walked on earth in submission and obedience to the Father. So that they represent, thuyết giáo, and bring the Kingdom of God on this earth.

What power gave Jesus to His Church?

Jesus gave all power to the church; the assembly of born-again believers, to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy. He promised that while doing that, nothing would hurt the born-again believers (Luke 10:19). Jesus gave all authority to His church, ĐẾN bind and to lose. Which means to permit and not permit.

Jesus promised another Comforter and sent the other Comforter, Đức Thánh Linh, to His church. The Holy Spirit would lead and teach them into all truth and empower them as they went into the world.

Because Jesus gave the believers (Giáo Hội), the commandment to go into the world and preach the gospel and to make nations His disciples.

The signs that would follow the believers are:

• là được rửa tội trong nước,
• be filled with the Holy Spirit,
• nói tiếng lạ,
• Đuổi quỷ,
• lay hands on the sick and they shall recover,
• nuôi người chết,
• và nếu họ uống thứ gì chết người, nó sẽ không làm hại họ

The Church has all the power of God. Therefore the Church should be the most powerful and mightiest institution on this earth. The Church is seated in Jesus Christ, vượt xa tất cả công quốc, sức mạnh, có thể, và quyền thống trị và mọi tên được đặt tên. Vì thế the Church should triumph over every power of the enemy and the gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church (Đọc thêm: Walk in the dominion that God has given to the new creation)

But what is happening with today’s Church? Does the Church have power? Do signs and wonders follow the believers? Is the Church able to give the life, that the Church has received in Jesus Christ? Is the Church able to help people and set them free of any oppression of the devil? Or does the Church refer people, after they have prayed, đến thế giới, to worldly institutions, like doctors, (Cơ Đốc giáo) nhà tâm lý học, bác sĩ tâm thần, vân vân?

The Church has the power and the answer to every human being and to every social problem in this world. But the truth is that the Church has become carnal and spiritually weak and because of that the Church can’t solve the problems in the world, nor the problems of people. What has the Church got to offer?

Maybe it’s time to face the hard truth and note that the gates of hell already prevailed the Church and that the world is seated in the Church.

Có gì sai với Giáo hội?

The church has deviated from the words of God and compromised. Below you find a list of the things that are wrong with the church

The children of Judah have done evil in My sight, Chúa phán: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by My name, to pollute it (Jeremiah 7:30)

• The Church has set abominations in the house of the Lord and polluted the House of Lord (this includes the lives of Christians, because the Christians; the believers are the church)
• The Church holds fast to deceit and refuses to return. The Church spoke not aright; no one repented of his or her wickedness (tội lỗi và sự gian ác).
• The Church is not familiar with the judgment nor the will of the Lord
• The Church claims to be wise and thinks that the law of the Lord is with her. Certainly in vain made the Church it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
• The Church boasts in its own wisdom and has rejected the Word of the Lord
• The Church says that there is peace, when there is no peace; the Church says it’s ok, while it’s not ok
• The Church is not ashamed when the believers commit abominations.
• The Church has become an adulteress, an assembly of treacherous men and women
• The Church bends her tongue like her bow for lies, but is not valiant for the truth upon the earth. Her tongue is like an arrow shot out, which speaks deceit.
• The Church walks in evil and proceeds from evil to evil
• The Church doesn’t know the Lord
• The Church is filled with brothers, who cannot trust each other because they deceive each other and do not speak the truth (they speak the wisdom of the world, which goes against the Word of God). They have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.
• The Church walks amid deceit; through deceit and refuses to know the Lord
• Nhà thờ; Các tín đồ, speaks peaceably to their neighbor with their mouths, but in their hearts, they laid his wait.
• The Church has not obeyed the voice of the Lord, nor walked in His commandments. But the Church walks after the imagination of her own heart and after idols.
• The pastors destroy and scatter the sheep of the Lord’s pasture
• các nhà tiên tri and the priests are profane. The Lord has found their wickedness in His house. Họ phạm tội ngoại tình, walk in lies, and strengthen the hands of evildoers. They prophesy out of their own heart
• The Church has left the spiritual inheritance, she received in Jesus Christ and is focused on idols

(Jeremiah 7:30, 8, 9, 23 Ê-xê-chi-ên 13)

Why won’t the methods and strategies of the world help to restore the Church?

Many churches look at the world and rely on their carnal wisdom and knowledge and apply worldly doctrines, Phương pháp, and strategies in the church. They compromise with the world to attract more people, especially more youth. They adapt the sounds of secular music in their worship music and apply ‘new age’ techniques during worship to enter into some kind of trance. They’ll use all kinds of new technologies to make the gospel attractive and enjoyable to carnal people. The churches tolerate all kinds of behavior and preach short ‘feel good’ and motivational sermons that revolve around man.

Everything is done to please and satisfy the carnal people and to keep them happy so that they will return.

Many changes are being applied in the church, that are focused upon the will of man. Sadly, many congregations don’t live after the will of God nữa không, but after the will of man.

Many churches twist the truth of God’s Word, into lies. Because that’s what people want to hear. They would rather hear lies, so that they can continue to live after the flesh, than the truth. Because the truth of God will cost them their lives on this earth and they are not willing to give up their lives.

The church is focused on carnal prosperity, Wealth, tiền, sự phát triển, profit, vân vân.

But which church has the guts to go back to the Word and live according to the will of God and remove all the sins out of the church with the consequences that many people will walk away? Who is willing to sacrifice his or her office for the truth of God?

Many churches keep compromising the Word with the world. They look at the doctrines, Phương pháp, and strategies of the world and apply them to the church. But the wisdom of the world shall not benefit, nor restore the church because the church is a spiritual institution. The church doesn’t belong to the world; vương quốc bóng tối, nhưng đến Nước Thiên Chúa.

Sự khôn ngoan của thế giới (thịt) is against the wisdom of God (Tinh thần), they cannot go together. There is only one way to restoration, and that is to repent and return to Jesus; Lời.

How can the Church be restored?

The only way the church can be restored is when the church repents of the abominations she has committed and allowed in the congregation and returns to the Word of God and obeys and does the Word of God. Chỉ khi đó, there will be a change in the church.

It is about time to become serious with the things of the Kingdom of God and to walk after the Spirit, thay vì đi theo xác thịt. It’s time to seek the things that are above, nơi Chúa Kitô ngồi, instead of seeking and longing after the things of this world. It is about time to put away the sins from the House of the Lord; out of the lives of the believers and start walking after the ý chí của thần trong sự thánh thiện và công bình

It is about time that Jesus becomes the Head of His body; Nhà thờ của Ngài, again and the Church arises from the dead and fulfills the commandment that Jesus gave to His followers. It is seriously time to listen to the Holy Spirit, so that the Body of Jesus Christ; nhà thờ, will be prepared for Sự trở lại của anh ấy.

It is about time, the Bride will be ready for her Groom

Obey the voice of the Lord, and He will be your God, and you shall be His people: and walk in all the ways that He has commanded you, rằng điều đó có thể tốt cho bạn (Jeremiah 7:23)
