Title Code of Conduct/Phil 4:4-7
Contents
One of the important factors that a person must have for his or her faith growth is a grateful heart. This heart is a happy heart and a peaceful heart. Today's texts speak of this. If there is a difference between those who believe in Jesus and those who do not believe, the 'level of gratitude' is different. The Bible clearly says, 'Give thanks, rejoice,' and speak of 'peace'. However, when we ask ‘Why, why are you thankful?’, we have nothing to say.
Today, in this matter, we are going to examine how important this is, how necessary it is, and how to use it in the matter of growing believers in Jesus.
How are we saved? 'Did I get it because I believed in Jesus?' Or 'Did Jesus give me salvation without cost?' If there was no reason or cause for the result of salvation that occurred to me, if salvation was given to me, who would give me salvation? God saved me through Jesus Christ. Buddhism is a religion in which I become “what”. It is a style where I start from myself and go to a certain place of perfection. However, Christianity is achieved with someone's help because I can't start and finish it. What the hell did I do to be saved? no. Does “believe in Jesus” mean “believe in Jesus” when you say “you didn’t get it by what you did”? This is not the point of the word 'believe'. ‘Jesus is the one who saves me, and he is the one who gave the result of this salvation.’ The word ‘believe in Jesus’ emphasizes the word [Jesus], not [faith]. I didn't get saved because I believed in Jesus, but Jesus saved me because he gave me faith. So, shouldn't I be doing nothing? But look at the following statement.
“What then shall we say? Shall we abid in sin that grace may increase?” (Romans 6:1)
Salvation is pure grace. The most misunderstood when linking the issue of salvation with grace is that we forget 'where we were moved from where we were' and that the process and method of being moved is 'difference in location and status' because of grace. has forgotten and is in confusion.
“What then shall we say? Shall we dwell in sin that grace may increase? No way. How shall we, who were dead to sin, live longer in them?” (Romans 6:1-2)
We should not underestimate the difference in our status that has been changed because of grace, and that we have changed our status because of grace. We often underestimate the difference in status that has changed because we are zealous, not in our own way, not in our own strength.
He blocks the way I go today in order to get to where I cannot go by the way I started, intended, and planned, that cannot be reached, neither by power nor nature, nor by nature. Among those who believe in Jesus, 90% of them liked it, so they were beaten and had no choice but to believe.
Because God saved us by his own will, we are people whose salvation cannot be undone. It is God's promise. The fundamentals do not change because of the mistakes I make and the mistakes I make. This is the certainty of salvation. But even though we are saved, we are at odds because we are not saved. This makes us anxious. But the Bible says. “You must come to the place of perfection, because I rule you with grace.” This is the tenacity of the word grace.
