A ty, będąc umarłymi w swoich grzechach i nieobrzezaniu ciała, hath he quickened together with Him, przebaczywszy wam wszystkie przewinienia; Wymazanie pisma rozporządzeń, które były przeciwko nam, co było z nami sprzeczne, i zdjąłem to z drogi, przybijając go do swego krzyża; I mając zepsute księstwa i moce, Otwarcie robił z nich pokaz, w nim triumfując nad nimi (Kolosan 2:13-15)
Before your repentance and regeneration in Christ, your spirit was dead and you lived under the authority of death. And although God knows everyone by name, because of your uncircumcised state, you were (Duchowo) dead to God and didn’t belong to Him.
Your carnal mind was enmity against God and your trespasses, which derived from your sinful nature of the flesh (your evil nature, depraved nature) separated you from God. Because as long as someone stays uncircumcised, the sinful nature of the flesh shall be present and shall reign, causing the person to persevere in sin and unrighteousness and live separated from God.
Quickened together with Christ
A ty ożywiłeś, którzy umarli w upadkach i grzechach; W którym w przeszłości postępowaliście według biegu tego świata, Według Księcia Potęgi Powietrza, ducha, który teraz działa w dzieciach nieposłuszeństwa: Pomiędzy którymi też wszyscy rozmawialiśmy w dawnych czasach w pożądliwościach naszego ciała, Zaspokajanie pragnień ciała i umysłu; i byli z natury dziećmi gniewu, even as others.Ale Bóg, który jest bogaty w miłosierdzie, za swą wielką miłość, którą nas umiłował, Nawet gdy byliśmy martwi w grzechach, ożywił nas razem z Chrystusem, (łaską jesteście zbawieni;) I razem nas wychował, i posadził nas razem w okręgach niebieskich w Chrystusie Jezusie: Aby w przyszłych wiekach mógł On ukazać niezmierne bogactwo swej łaski w swej dobroci dla nas przez Jezusa Chrystusa (Efezjan 2:1-7)
But by faith in Jesus Christ and regeneration in Him, you are circumcised in the circumcision of Christ and you have put away the sinful flesh through baptism and have been risen from the dead in Him and quickened with Him. Z tego powodu, the power of sin and death is broken over your life.
All your trespasses; all your sins and iniquities have been forgiven and done away, because the handwriting of ordinances that was against you, which was contrary to you, was blotted out
You are no longer a trespasser of the law; Grzesznik, but you have been made righteous in Christ and have received God’s nature and shall fulfill in Him the law (Rzymianie 3:31 (Przeczytaj także: Czy człowiek jest w stanie wypełnić prawo??)).
Jesus Christ has spoiled principalities and powers and made a shew of them openly, w nim triumfując nad nimi
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me (Jan 12:31-32)
When you were united with Christ and become one with Him through the cross, you were acquitted from all your trespasses and the punishment for your trespasses.
Jesus Christ took all your trespasses upon Himself at the cross. Christ has carried the punishment you deserved because of your trespasses at the cross. And because of His great love, Christ has also carried the capital punishment for your trespasses and entered Hades (piekło) Dla ciebie, so that you wouldn’t see the death.
The devil thought he was victorious and that the Son of God was in his power, but Christ had to come under his power; his rulership, since fallen man was under the rulership of the devil (Przeczytaj także: ‘The head of the devil bruised because the heel of Jesus was bruised„).
By carrying the sin in His flesh at the cross, Jesus carried all the trespasses of fallen man and those, who would believe in Jesus Christ the Son of God and Saviour of mankind and would make Him Lord of their lives, would be cleansed by His blood from all their trespasses and be redeemed from the power of sin and death.
By His blood and His redemptive work, Jesus Christ has spoiled principalities and powers and made a shew of them openly triumphing over them in it
The adversary the devil still walks about as a roaring lion
Bądź trzeźwy, Bądź czujny; bo twój przeciwnik, diabeł, jak ryczący lew, walks about, szukając, kogo by pożreł (1 Piotr 5:8)
Although Jesus has spoiled principalities and powers and made a shew of them openly triumphing over them in it and has klucze of hell and death, the devil and the principalities and powers of the kingdom of darkness are not cast in the eternal lake of fire yet.
This means that the devil is still the ruler of this world and the father of fallen mankind and as a roaring lion walks about seeking whom he may devour.
The devil is still a liar and a thief and he and his demons still go around to steal, zabijać i niszczyć (Jan 10:10 (Przeczytaj także: ‘Tron szatana„)
Tylko te, who are born again in Christ and have become a new creation and are circumcised in the circumcision of Christ by putting off the sins of the flesh through baptism, don’t belong to the devil anymore, but they are reconciled with God through Christ and by His blood and belong to God.
They are seated in Christ in the heavenly places and reign with Him over all principalities, uprawnienie, Władcy ciemności tego świata, i duchową niegodziwość na wyżynach (Oh. Mateusz 12:29, Łukasz 11:22, Efezjan 1:20; 6:12).
The devil has no power (autorytet) over them and can’t accuse them anymore, because of the crucifixion of the flesh they are redeemed from the power (autorytet) of the kingdom of darkness and sin and death and don’t belong to him anymore and all their trespasses have been forgiven.
The devil can bring back sins from your former life into your remembrance and accuse you with these sins, but if you know kim jesteś w Chrystusie and know the Word and know that all your sins have been forgiven, he will not succeed, because you will put him to silence with the truth of the Word.
The devil can’t accuse you anymore
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in Me. But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave Me commandment, even so I do (Jan 14:30-31)
If you renew your mind with the Word of God and odłóż starego I Przyobleczcie się w nowego człowieka and stay in Christ and walk after the Word and the Spirit, the devil shall not be able to accuse you, because he can’t accuse you with anything. If you live according to the will of God, there’s nothing he can accuse you of.
Ofcourse the devil will do everything in his power to stop you from preaching the gospel of Christ and bring the Kingdom of God to the people and win souls. The devil will do everything he can to win you back for himself and his kingdom.
He shall accuse you and tempt you to sin through his lies, seductions, and obstacles in the flesh and make you a slave of sin again. He will do everything in his power to accomplish his mission.
But as long as you love God with all your heart and be faithful to God and stay in Christ; the Word and keep Jego przykazania, he shall not be able to touch you and accomplish his mission.
Jesus has spoiled principalities and powers and triumphed over them, therefore the devil and the principalities and powers of darkness have no power (autorytet) over you, unless you give them power (autorytet) by submitting yourself to them again and listen to them and do what they want to do and persevere in sin.
