The love and the grace of God are so great! God loves people so much, He only wants the best for people and to have a relationship with them. God wanted this so much, that He sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to this earth, to become a sacrifice for humanity. Jesus took all the sins, iniquités, maladies, and sicknesses of humanity upon Him. Jesus died for everyone, vous incluant. So that you’ll be delivered from sin and the power of darkness and be reconciled with the Father.
Quelle est la grâce de Dieu?
Car Dieu a tant aimé le monde, qu'il a donné son Fils unique, afin que quiconque croit en Lui ne périsse pas, mais ayez la vie éternelle (John 3:16)
Jesus took the sins of the world and carried our punishment; death and eternal torture in hell. Jesus took it all on Himself, so that we would be freed from sin, iniquité, et la mort. Par son sang, we’re reconciled with the Father and can have a relationship with Him and live in freedom on this earth.
What a love is that!! What a grace of God!
And salvation is not all, that He has done. Non! He gave us His Holy Spirit. So that we could live on earth as fils de Dieu (les hommes et les femmes).
This means, that we can live a life that Jesus lived because what Jesus had, we have.
The life as a son or daughter of God is for now and not after we die and go to heaven.
The grace of God is that we’re not justified by our works, but by the work of Jesus Christ and His blood. We are saved by faith in Jesus Christ.
Being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life (Romains 5:9-10)
Car c'est par grâce que vous êtes sauvés par la foi; et cela ne vient pas de vous: c'est le don de Dieu: Pas de travaux, de peur qu'aucun homme ne se vante (Éphésiens 2:8-9)
We could never earn our salvation by works! Only by the grace of God, dans le Christ, we’re restored (Guéri), reconciled with God, and become partakers of the inheritance that God has given us through His Son Jesus Christ.
What is the inheritance of the sons of God?
The inheritance is the gift of the Holy Spirit; the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. We may walk in these spiritual gifts and distribute life to others.
The grace of God is, that we may have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. What a blessing it is, to be and walk in His presence. There is nothing we can do to earn this, no works will get us there. The only thing we have to do is believe in Jesus Christ.
We have received it freely. How great is God’s love!
Does the grace of God allow us to walk in sin?
But now comes the essential point, Are we allowed to walk in sin after we become born again? Can we walk like we used to walk before we accepted Jesus as our Saviour and Lord and repented?
La réponse est, of course, Non! Because if you keep sinning, what have you repented from? If you don’t turn your back to sin, but keep walking in sin.
When you have an encounter with Jesus Christ, His presence and holiness will confront you with your sins, nature pécheresse, and your filthy state.
When you are confronted with your sins and sinful nature, you have two options: you mourn, se repentir, and accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, or you walk away, reject Jesus and His redemptive work, and keep living in sin.
If you choose the first option, you repent from your sins and accept Him, as your Saviour and Lord, then by His blood, which was shed on the cross on Calvary, you will be cleansed of all your sins and iniquities. À partir de ce moment-là, ton old life is gone and washed away by the blood of Jesus. You’ll be baptized in water and baptized with the Holy Spirit and become a new creation; un fils de Dieu (cela s'applique aussi bien aux hommes qu'aux femmes).
What is the power of the blood of Jesus Christ?
Donc si quelqu'un est en Christ, c'est une nouvelle créature: les vieilles choses sont décédées; voir, toutes choses sont devenues nouvelles (2 Corinthiens 5:17)
Isn’t that wonderful, all the old things are passed away and all things become new. That is the power of the cross and the blood of Jesus Christ.
But when you return to your old sinful life, you will deny the power of His blood and therefore deny Jesus Christ.
When you are taught in the Word of God and study the Word of God and keep walking in sin, still doing the things that you did before your repentance, and use ‘the grace’ as a license to sin (because you love your old life and don’t want to give it up), you deceive yourself.
The devil is a liar and twisted the meaning of grace.
If you keep walking in sin and say it’s alright to sin and use the grace of God to keep on sinning, this only means one thing: you don’t want to mourir à soi and are not really born again.
You may think you are, but your actions prove that you are not born again. You still listen to your old father the devil, by walking in sins.
You’re holy and righteous, therefore act holy and righteous
Quand tu nais de nouveau, tu deviens fils de Dieu; une nouvelle création. As a son of God, you have His nature dwelling on the inside of you. You have become holy and righteous.
You are seated in Jesus Christ. Your life is hidden in Him, you have become one with Him. Now it’s up to you, if you want to stay in Him.
Si vous restez en Lui; la Parole de Dieu, you obey His words and walk in His commandments. You will do His will instead of your will. When you obey Him and walk in His will, you walk holy and righteousness.
“Be holy, car je suis saint"
How can you become one with Him and become a partaker of His nature, when you keep obeying and serving the devil, by walking in sins? That’s impossible!
You can either do the will of the Father and walk in His commandments or do the will of the devil and keep walking in sins and iniquities, fulfilling the will, convoitises, et les désirs de la chair.
Do you know that every time you sin, you serve and exalt the devil?
Qu’est-ce que le péché?
Sin is rebellion and disobedience to God. Sin is everything, that oppose the words and the will of God and therefore trespasses His commandments.
Paul wrote in Roman 6:1-23 the following about sin;
Que dirons-nous alors? Devons-nous continuer dans le péché, que la grâce puisse abonder? Dieu pardonne. Comment allons-nous, qui sont morts au péché, y vivre plus longtemps? Tu ne sais pas, that so many of us as were baptised into Jesus Christ were baptised into his death? C'est pourquoi nous sommes enterrés avec lui par le baptême dans la mort: que comme Christ a été ressuscité des morts par la gloire du Père, même ainsi, nous devrions aussi marcher en nouveauté de vie. Car si nous avons été plantés ensemble à la ressemblance de sa mort, we shall be also in the likenessof his resurrection: Sachant cela, que notre vieil homme est crucifié avec lui, afin que le corps du péché soit détruit, que désormais nous ne devons plus servir le péché. Car celui qui est mort est libéré du péché.
Maintenant, si nous sommes morts avec Christ, Nous croyons que nous vivrons aussi avec Lui: Sachant que le Christ, ressuscité d’entre les morts, ne meurt plus; la mort n’a plus de domination sur lui. Car c’est en cela qu’il mourut, Il est mort une fois au péché: mais en ce qu’il vit, il vit pour Dieu. De même, considérez-vous aussi comme morts au péché, mais vivant pour Dieu par Jésus-Christ notre Seigneur.
“Ne laisse donc pas le péché régner dans ton corps mortel”
Ne laisse donc pas le péché régner dans ton corps mortel, afin que vous lui obéissiez dans ses convoitises. Ne livrez pas non plus vos membres au péché comme des instruments d’iniquité.: mais abandonnez-vous à Dieu, comme ceux qui sont vivants d’entre les morts, et vos membres comme instruments de justice pour Dieu. Car le péché n’aura point de domination sur vous: car vous n’êtes pas sous la loi, mais sous la grâce.
“Shall we sin, Parce que nous ne sommes pas soumis à la loi, mais sous la grâce? Dieu pardonne”
Et alors? Shall we sin, Parce que nous ne sommes pas soumis à la loi, mais sous la grâce? Dieu pardonne. Tu ne sais pas, à qui vous vous livrez comme serviteurs pour obéir, Vous êtes ses serviteurs, à qui vous obéissez; que ce soit du péché jusqu’à la mort, ou de l’obéissance à la justice? Mais Dieu soit loué, que vous étiez les serviteurs du péché, Mais vous avez obéi du fond du cœur à la doctrine qui vous a été transmise.
Être alors libéré du péché, Vous êtes devenus les serviteurs de la justice. Je parle à la manière des hommes à cause de l’infirmité de ta chair: Car, comme vous avez livré vos membres serviteurs à l’impureté et à l’iniquité pour l’iniquité,; De même, maintenant, livrez vos membres serviteurs à la justice pour la sainteté. Car lorsque vous étiez esclaves du péché, Vous étiez libres de la justice.
“Le salaire du péché est la mort”
Quel fruit aviez-vous alors dans les choses dont vous avez honte aujourd’hui? For the end of those things is death. Mais maintenant, être libéré du péché, et devenir serviteurs de Dieu, Vous avez votre fruit pour la sainteté, et la fin la vie éternelle.
Car le salaire du péché, c’est la mort; mais le don de Dieu, c’est la vie éternelle par Jésus-Christ notre Seigneur.
Why the grace of God is not a license to sin?
La grâce de Dieu n’est pas une licence pour continuer à pécher. When you get to know the Word, you will turn your back to sin, et faire ce qui lui plaît.
The grace of God is the unending love of the Father, that through His Son Jesus Christ, you may become a partaker of the inheritance for His people. His grace is the ability and the privilege to become sons and daughters of the most High God, by faith in Jesus Christ and by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
La grace de Dieu, is the sanctification period. It is the time God gives you, à repousser le vieil homme, et mets le nouvel homme. So that you will walk as a son of God in the Light and the dominion, that Jesus walked in on earth.
You will walk as Jesus walked and reveal and destroy the works of the devil. You’ll preach the gospel, set the captives free, and heal those who are sick in the Name of Jesus.
You will no longer walk after the flesh in sin (in rebellion and disobedience to God and His Word), but after the Spirit in obedience to the Word in the wisdom and knowledge of God, doing the works of righteousness. Maintenant, that is grace!
Therefore separate yourself and live like Jesus lived. Renew your mind with the words of God and be courageous. Don’t let anyone discourage you! Continue, even when people around you think you are a fool.
Keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, la Parole vivante de Dieu. He is the One you need to follow!
'Soyez le sel de la terre’
