Title I Was Dead... (Galatians 2:20)
“I have been crucified with Christ
Therefore, it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.
Now that I live in the flesh
who loved me and gave himself up for me
to live by faith in the Son of God”
What is righteousness and what is injustice in this world?
Some say love is righteous and murder is unrighteous.
Others say that killing bad people for the sake of the country is righteousness, and that love is an obstacle that should not be achieved in achieving such a great ambassador.
Yes, in this way, each person works hard for the righteousness that he considers to be right.
Therefore, because of their own righteousness, they have no choice but to regard the other person's righteousness as injustice, and for their own righteousness, they treat the other person as an incarnation of injustice and inflict pain.
So am I right?
no.
I am living for my own righteousness, but I do not think that my righteousness is always right.
But something leads me to live for the righteousness I believe is right.
He whispers that that is the true way of life I live.
But now, looking back, the way I have lived my life is so bad.
Of course, there was never a time when I was happy, but now that I think about it, it was all injustice, and what I thought was right was also a lie.
Come to think of it, there is no righteousness on this earth. And no one in this world can see anyone who does righteousness.
Is the one who takes up the sword for the sake of the country and the people righteous?
Or is it the righteous one who makes and enforces laws for the safety of citizens?
Or is it a righteous person who goes alone deep in the mountains and lives in harmony with nature with morals and philosophy?
Their faces all seem to be generous, kind, and bright like an angel, but if you go deep into their hearts little by little, eventually, such people become the center of their own self-righteousness, and they judge the world differently from the outside and the inside.
Based on the knowledge they learned and knew for human life since childhood, they formed their own righteousness by adding their own instinctive wisdom.
As a result, everything that is considered to be right in one's own point of view is righteous.
It is said that what others have done is not right if it does not match one's own thoughts.
In the end, it became a reflection and all became injustice.
While they have become injustice to each other, they try to find true righteousness, and they end up committing injustice again.
Yes, from the moment when man asserts his own righteousness, true righteousness has disappeared from this world.
Doing good for others, giving love, or giving food to the poor, he lived only for his own righteousness because he wanted and demanded it.
It is not true righteousness.
One day, if another true standard of righteousness appears to that person, he will again change the standard of righteousness he has lived so far as if it were too natural, and live with the newly revealed form of righteousness.
It's strange... Yesterday's good becomes worthless today, and today's good is found to have lived as evil until yesterday.
Then don't trust me. don't look at me And let's not even look at the faces of so many people on this earth...
Everything below is subject to change.
Everything that has its roots in the ground and stands on the ground changes and disappears at some point.
Come to think of it, all my standards of righteousness up to now have their origins on earth.
Then, now we cannot fly or see, but let's put the standard of righteousness in an invisible place...
Surprisingly, it is there. There is a standard of righteousness in heaven, not on earth or on earth.
Humans live according to the standard of righteousness on earth, and even if they die, they change and smell rotten and eventually disappear, but when we set the standard of righteousness in heaven, life does not change and lasts forever.
The truth of its righteousness has come to us in human language to be with us.
That's the Bible.
Surprisingly, the Bible declares that the world has been corrupted since before we were even born, and that there is no righteousness on this earth.
However, it is said that a righteousness has appeared in this land full of injustice, so if we only look at this righteousness and rely on it, we will not decay and enjoy eternal life even after the years pass.
When I found that righteousness, it was Jesus.
When we accept the righteous Jesus, all our injustices disappear and we are clothed with the righteousness of Jesus.
They are said to be righteous even when they eat, they are said to be righteous when they sleep, and they are said to be righteous even when they fight in anger. It is rare, but it is said that it is righteous even if you accidentally kill someone.
It is said that you are righteous even when your heart hurts so much and you are righteous when you fight over something you do not want.
When I asked him how he could become like this, he said that it was because he had traded the righteousness of the Lord for the righteousness he had so far.
It is said that the moment I look at the Lord's righteousness and accept it, my righteousness goes to the Lord and the Lord's righteousness enters me.
However, because my physical appearance is the same, even though I have been living anew because of the Lord's righteousness, as I live with my feet on this earth, the hometown of injustice, the Lord's righteousness suffers from the same pain as before because of the sin (injustice) that is always happening through my body. It is said that this appears as it is.
Even if we believe and are born again, Satan continues to lead us to sin through our flesh. And then you are accusing us that you have sinned in order to bring us to ruin.
But don't be discouraged.
Our Lord sees this differently.
The Lord tells us that His righteousness does not make us sin-free, but that sin (unrighteousness) is committed by Satan, so it is not your responsibility. Knowing that he is authorized, he always looks only at the cross (confession) and uses it as a tool to humbly come before God.
If we believe in the Lord and become perfect people who do not sin from then on, our weakness to receive mercy will disappear, and our faith to rely on and look on the Lord will disappear and we will become enemies with God again.
Therefore, everything we do in the Lord now, even if we make mistakes and are despised by the world, we become good in the sight of the Lord (the attitude of seeking God and seeking grace), and God is pleased.
The biggest reason for this is that when I accepted the Lord's righteousness, my filthy righteousness was nailed to the cross with the Lord and died.
My righteousness is the life I have lived until now.
That life is dead, and now there is only the Lord left.
So now, whatever you do, the Lord is in charge.
Miraculous.
When I asked if there was anything good I could do for the Lord, I simply said no.
For me, I can't overcome this injustice, but I always suffer.
That's why they say I'm sorry and they say that when I accept the Lord, the Lord's righteousness kills me first and comes into me before I come in. So now I am said to be dead.
When my righteousness was passed on to the Lord, my life was also said to have died because it was nailed to the cross because it was dirty and ugly.
So there is nothing I have to do, just as a dead body cannot speak or act.
When I asked if I could use my righteousness for the Lord's sake, he said no.
That doesn't make sense. You died, but for the sake of the Lord, the saying doesn't work.
Then, when I heard the word of the Lord, this righteousness was clear and I accepted it by faith. When I asked why it was not faith, this righteousness was given by grace.
Those who accept such righteousness are the way of the world.
You want to have the Lord's righteousness, but what the Lord gives when you give and what I have because I want is the difference between heaven and earth.
If I have this righteousness because I want it, it is because I can throw it away again whenever I get tired of using it.
The Lord cannot wait to see His righteousness being held for a moment by those who are full of such desires and then thrown into the road (Matthew 7:6).
I am dead.... It is said that when I believe and accept the Lord, my righteousness is crucified together.
That righteousness is myself.
i'm dead
That's why I can't speak and I can't do anything for my life.
Now, I am going to the Lord to get dressed in this righteousness, and suddenly a ugly cross, taller than my height, blocks in front of me, making a blunt sound of a hammer and driving sharp nails, and red blood is flowing down like a river.
Then, as if sneering at him, he seems to be taunting, saying, "I want you to suffer this pain and shame like Jesus."
It's so terrifying and terrifying...
Is the only way I have to go through the cross stained with red blood to perform the ritual to receive the Lord's righteousness?...
I was hesitant to say, but it is not in the words of the Lord.
It's not my job, it's the Lord's job.
When I accept by faith the fact that the Lord was nailed to the cross that I should have been crucified on, the Lord takes this dirty and cumbersome righteousness that I considered my life so easily to the cross so that I will not suffer at all.
Okay, this wasn't my job.
That's right. Only the Lord is righteous.
The righteous Lord died on my behalf, and if I accept that fact, it will become the Lord's righteousness, and my old self will die on the cross and be reborn (born again). . Depends on the Lord....
Amazing love wraps around my body.
