Title: When the Hearer Reconciles the Faith
Contents
Jesus and the Word are not two, but one. This is because the holy servant (Acts 4:27, 4:30) heard the word of God and united the faith. It is the same as the words of the evidence that is written, "I send the Spirit, the LORD said to me, "You are my son, and today I have begotten you" (Psalm 2:7).
In Christ Jesus, those who spoke and those who heard the word were united in faith, and the Word became flesh. For this reason, God's words, which are written, "...you are my son, today I have begotten you," and again I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me. will be This is why the Bible testifies, “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14).
The Word is God. Therefore, it is proper for the Word made flesh to testify that he is the Son of God. Also, to those who receive this word, that is, to those who believe in his name, the right to become children of God should be given.
It is written, “There was the true light, which came into the world, and to give light to every man, who was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not know him; he came to his own land, and his people did not receive him, but those who did receive him. To those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, and we beheld the Father's glory. It was the glory of the only begotten Son, full of grace and truth. John testified of him and cried out, saying, "I said before, He who comes after me precedes me, because he precedes me." It is grace upon grace” (John 1:9-16).
Jesus is the Son of Man, and Christ is the Son of God. Therefore, to believe in his name is to unite your faith in Jesus, the Son of Man, and Christ, the Son of God, and you will receive the power to become a child of God. In this way, Christ Jesus became the mediator of the mystery of man becoming a child of God. This is why the Bible testifies, “There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Timothy 2:5).
“I want you to know how I work for you and for those who are in Laodicea and for all who have not seen the face of my flesh, so that their hearts may be comforted, and that they may be united in love, leading to all the riches of sensible understanding. For the understanding of Christ, the mystery of God, in which are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I say these things so that no one may deceive you with crafty words, for I am absent in the flesh, but with you in spirit. The Bible testifies, “I am glad to see your scale and the firmness of your faith in Christ” (Colossians 2:1-5).
Without homogeneity, harmony cannot be achieved. Jesus Christ, because he was born of a woman, is one with man, and above because he is born of God, he is one with God. This subtle truth is the mystery of faith that is realized when and when all hearers unite their faith. That is why he testified that the gospel of God and his Son is the word of faith.
It is written, “Moses wrote, “He who practices righteousness by the law will live by that righteousness.” But righteousness by faith says like this, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven? "Who will go down to hell?" says, "Who will go down?" means to raise Christ from the dead. What then do you mean? The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart, which is the word of faith we preach." Romans 10:5-8) is the same evidence.
For this reason, the Bible testifies, “As we are, we also have the gospel preached, but the words they heard did not benefit them, because those who hear them do not unite their faith” (Hebrews 4:2).
The work of the Holy Spirit that unites faith cannot be reconciled unless it is one with the Lord of faith. If we do not completely escape Satan's delusion that Jesus' body is different from human flesh, the death of Jesus and our death cannot be united. If the death of Jesus and our death cannot be united, neither the resurrection of Christ nor ours can be united, so there is no salvation for man.
But the Bible already says, "For both the one who sanctifies and the one who is sanctified are all of one. Therefore, he is not ashamed to call them brothers, saying, "I will declare Your name to my brothers, and I will praise You in the midst of the church." And again I will trust in him. And again, behold, I and the children God has given me.” The children are of flesh and blood, and he also belongs to flesh and blood in one likeness, the one who has seized the power of death through death, the devil. and to release all those who were bound by their lifelong bondage because of their fear of death, not really to uphold the angels, but to uphold the descendants of Abraham. He did this so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the work of God to make atonement for the sins of the people” (Hebrews 2:11-17).
If the body of Jesus, which belongs to flesh and blood, was different from that of a man, man's sins could not be eradicated forever. If the flesh and blood of Jesus were different from that of a human being, the faith that the sinful body died with Jesus could not be reconciled, so the gospel of living with him would also be false, and there would be no salvation.
For this reason, the Bible says in advance, “By this you will know the Spirit of God, that every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God, and this is the spirit of the antichrist, which is to come.” You have heard it, but it is already in the world” (1 John 4:2-3).
This is why the Bible says, “When the time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, made under the law, that he might redeem them that were under the law, and that we might receive the sonship” (Galatians 4:4-5). I'm proving it for sure.
For this reason, when those who hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, who became flesh, have faith, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, who, before the foundation of the world, He hath chosen us from within, that he might be holy and blameless before him in love, for he predestined us to be his sons through Jesus Christ, the glory of his grace, freely given to us in him whom he loved. It is for the sake of praise” (Ephesians 1:3-6). Amen, thank you Lord.
