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, iniquities, choroby, and sicknesses of humanity upon Him. Jesus died for everyone, including you. So that you’ll be delivered from sin and the power of darkness and be reconciled with the Father.
Čo je Božia milosť?
Lebo Boh tak miloval svet, že dal svojho jednorodeného Syna, aby nezahynul nikto, kto v Neho verí, ale maj večný život (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, neprávosť, a smrť. By His blood, 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. Nie! He gave us His Holy Spirit. So that we could live on earth as synovia Boží (muži aj ženy).
To znamená, 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 (Rimanom 5:9-10)
Lebo milosťou ste spasení skrze vieru; a to nie zo seba: je to Boží dar: Nie z diel, aby sa nikto nechválil (Ephesians 2:8-9)
We could never earn our salvation by works! Only by the grace of God, v Kristovi, we’re restored (uzdravený), 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?
Odpoveď je, samozrejme, Nie! 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, Hriešna povaha, and your filthy state.
When you are confronted with your sins and sinful nature, you have two options: you mourn, činiť pokánie, 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. Od toho momentu, tvoj 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; syn Boží (to platí pre mužov aj ženy).
What is the power of the blood of Jesus Christ?
Preto, ak je niekto v Kristovi, Je to nové stvorenie: Staré veci sú pominuteľné; hľa, Všetky veci sa stávajú novými (2 Korinťanom 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 zomrieť sebe 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
Keď sa znova narodíš, staneš sa synom Božím; nové stvorenie. Ako Boží syn, 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.
If you stay in Him; Slovo Božie, 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, for I am holy”
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? To je nemožné!
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, žiadostivosti, a túžby tela.
Do you know that every time you sin, you serve and exalt the devil?
Čo je hriech?
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;
Čo si potom povieme? Máme pokračovať v hriechu, aby milosť bola hojná? chráň Boh. Ako môžeme, ktorí sú mŕtvi hriechu, žiť v ňom ďalej? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptised into Jesus Christ were baptised into his death? Preto sme s ním pochovávaní krstom do smrti: že ako Kristus bol vzkriesený z mŕtvych slávou Otca, tak aj my by sme mali kráčať v novosti života. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likenessof his resurrection: Toto vedieť, že náš starec je s ním ukrižovaný, aby telo hriechu mohlo byť zničené, aby sme odteraz neslúžili hriechu. Lebo kto zomrel, je oslobodený od hriechu.
Teraz, ak sme mŕtvi s Kristom, we believe that we shall also live with him: Vediac, že Kristus vstal z mŕtvych už nezomiera; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Podobne považujte aj vy za to, že ste skutočne mŕtvi hriechu, ale živý Bohu skrze Ježiša Krista, nášho Pána.
“Nech teda nevládne hriech vo vašom smrteľnom tele”
Nech teda nevládne hriech vo vašom smrteľnom tele, aby ste ho poslúchali v jeho žiadostiach. Ani nevydávajte svoje údy ako nástroje neprávosti do hriechu: ale odovzdajte sa Bohu, ako tí, ktorí sú živí z mŕtvych, a vaše údy ako nástroje spravodlivosti pre Boha. Lebo hriech nad tebou nebude panovať: Veď nie ste pod zákonom, ale pod milosťou.
“Zhrešíme?, pretože nie sme pod zákonom, ale pod milosťou? chráň Boh”
Čo potom? Zhrešíme?, pretože nie sme pod zákonom, ale pod milosťou? chráň Boh. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; či už od hriechu až po smrť, alebo z poslušnosti k spravodlivosti? But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
“Odplatou za hriech je smrť”
What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Why the grace of God is not a license to sin?
The grace of God is not a license to keep sinning. When you get to know the Word, you will turn your back to sin, and do what pleases Him.
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.
The grace of God, is the sanctification period. It is the time God gives you, do odložiť starca, a obliecť si nového muža. 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. Teraz, 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, živé Slovo Božie. He is the One you need to follow!
