Title: The Owner of What I Have

120010Job35
Today Elihu is going to talk about what is called righteousness. What is the standard for right, right, or wrong or wrong? We have our own standards, so I said I did my best and did as much as I could. What many people think of as their motto in life is the Jin Insa Daecheonmyeong. Today's verse 14 says that I wait for the Lord. I did my best, and as a human being, I did everything perfectly. Now I wait for God to appear. For humans, it is so precious that it can be said that it is our everything. People do everything and wait for the will of heaven. However, when I say hello, when people say that they did their best, on the other hand, when I think about it, there are times when others say that I did my best, but there are times when the difference is so great that it is meaningless to say that I did my best. I want to know where the limits of a person are.
When I see you dancing and singing on TV, I want to say that it is a dance or a song, but if I can do it, I can't even imitate it. It's not easy and it's not easy. So I'm the same person, but I'm absolutely not. That person is easy. In many respects there is such a difference. In addition to the apparent body movements and sounds, there are even more differences in the way people use their minds. So, considering that it is a shame that I cannot give out my business card to someone more than me, I should think deeply about how useless and insignificant that I did my best.
See also verse 3. If you think about this story easily and in another dimension, if a fish in the water does not cause muddy water and does its best as a fish, then from the point of view of plants and animals on the ground, is that something to be proud of or not? Or there is a story about a fish that a loach is muddy in the water, but after a fish makes a lot of muddy water in the water, I am a sinner. So, saying that I am righteous and not doing well is meaningless if it is done according to my standards. In his argument with his friends, Job said that he had not sinned, but God couldn't do this. God will tell you clearly, so why not say that I want to look to God like that? Elihu kept hearing this. What does that have to do with God? Is it something to be proud of to be slightly better than others?
When the Apostle Paul says that doctrine is righteousness, whoever gives it to God first, I am indebted to you, and there is no one who has to pay you back. Is there anything we haven't received from God? I got everything. Not all boast except God. But God rewards you according to your deeds. When you are young, your parents are fully responsible and support you. But even in the midst of that, thank you to my parents. It doesn't matter how much they care. If I put the sweets I ate into my dad, he likes it. There are times when God rejoices in returning to God what he has received and repays him according to his works.
EO I'd say righteous, that's my opinion that I'm a little better than others. So there is no absolute meaning. There is no self-righteousness that can be saved. Although God has a man's sins, sins, and sinful nature, he is saved through Jesus Christ.
The righteous office, righteousness, is not a human being, but a sinful but righteous human being. So, we must cast away our pride and delusion that our very nature is a righteous person. I am always ashamed, but God loves and acknowledges that I am righteous, so I have no choice but to live humbly.
A typical example is the righteous man mentioned in the Gospel of Luke. He had a child, and he asked his father to give him an inheritance in advance. He asks him to become rich and take care of his father. But he went to a distant country, spent all his money, and became a beggar, and no one accepted him, so he became a regular beggar. There are many full-time workers in my father's house, but it is said that I died of starvation. Then I went back to my father's house, and my father welcomed me and gave me new clothes and new food after being washed clean. How could you pretend to be a child there? Father, if this is the case then it is said that you have killed me. However, even if I say that I am not qualified to be a father, this child accepts everything and pretends to be a child. is it a child? It was a mistake because it made my father ashamed, and it is shameful, but it is to make him happy by holding him in his arms. that it is righteous. The returned prodigal son is said to be a righteous man. They still have a sinful nature, but God has approved them, so they are living as righteous people.
Is it our nature to be in favor and live reverently when we live? Or are you playing, having fun, and rocking? Is it a human being to do what we want to do and live according to our instincts? Would it be considered a person to live according to one's own accord without restraint? To have an instinct, but to live with proper control. People are the same. We see that person by what they think and say. The instinct is the same. All are sinners and are captive to sin. But if you control it properly and elevate yourself to the fullest, won't you be treated well? It's about living with proper control over yourself. So that means you are righteous.
