CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL -HATING IT

 

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL

HATING IT

 

 

We cannot try to read literally all of the scripture...

 

 

 

                                        WITHIN the amounts of words translated from the scriptures, we will find many that will bring confusion to our western mentality. When reading the word of God, we will have to understand that some books were written in Hebrew, others in Greek and later translated into Spanish with its different nuances, something that does not usually happen in their translation into English. Perhaps the word hate is one of them. On the one hand, we usually have the concept that this word is contrary to love. If we seek help, when looking in the dictionary it will say that to hate is to dislike someone or something. However, when we see the etymology of the word we find: from the late Latin abhorrescĕre which is: to move away, to move away, to avoid. For this case, that we are talking about the supremacy and importance of loving God above all things, we will understand abhorrence as distancing ourselves from everything that may prevent us from giving him all the love that God asks for.

 

“And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the main commandment.”

 

Mark 12. 30

 

That "everything" is a word with which we must have a special treatment. As human beings, we avoid the absolutism of "everything" and enter into negotiations with what we should not possibly do. "All" in this case means 100% and not 99.99%. What we must reflect on is about that 0.1% that keeps us from giving everything to God, and yes that 0.1% is what we should hate. The other aspect to keep in mind is that if that tiny percentage is what prevents me from loving others, what are we going to do?

 

“And the second is similar: You shall love your neighbour as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.”

 

Mark 12. 31

 

 

Hating everything that takes us away from God also means giving ourselves the opportunity to begin to love others. In today's society, which is saturated by the Covid restriction measures, it will increasingly need the manifestations of the children of God to demonstrate that we really love God 100% as much as we love our neighbours 100% as much as ourselves.

 

God bless you.

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL- WE WERE ERRING FOR NOT KNOWING

 

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL

WE WERE ERRING FOR NOT KNOWING

 

 

We hit and hit the air knowing that our objective is another.

 

 

 

                        IGNORANCE of a law is not synonymous with exception. The fact that there is no prohibition sign does not mean that you have permission to do things. When it comes to exercising theology, Christians tend to be very liberal and make theological interpretations according to our heart and convenience. And paradoxically when a theologian (I mean that academic who has dedicated four years of his life to go to university and study Theology) tells us something, we immediately throw the necessary stones to try to silence what this human being is saying. Something that I have learned, both in my Christian and university life is, God can use even an atheist like Nietzsche, a Jesuit like Augustine or Bishop like Ratzinger to know his designs and be able to transmit them to those who are already free of religiosity to embrace an authentic faith, mature and ready to give rather than receive.

 

"Then answering Jesus, he said to them: Are you not erring because of this, because you ignore the Scriptures, and the power of God?"

Mark 12. 24

 

 

 

Today's church is full of activists and not representatives of the Kingdom of God. Christians try to demonstrate a God that we neither know nor have an intimate relationship with. We are absorbed by our own doctrinal and dogmatic discussions, neglecting the widow, the orphan and the homeless, understanding that this group of people are both physically and spiritually, because they are people who do not know God as Father, Provider and Sustained in their lives. God's or divine law is not governed by the same parameters that we apply as individuals. In the kingdom of heaven, two plus two is not always four.

 

"For when they rise from the dead, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage, but will be like the angels that are in heaven."

 

Mark 12. 25

 

 

 

 

 

What will happen in eternity? What will happen to our relatives and partners once we are in the presence of God? Perhaps in heaven will we have electric harps or will there be no more drums? Honestly, I don't know it and I don't even care. What I know today is that, if I do not preach the Gospel of Christ, every life that is called into the presence of God without an acceptance of the salvation of Christ, quite possibly this soul will be lost eternally. Therefore, in time and outside of it, I will always preach Christ and him risen.

 

 

 

God bless you.

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL -A GOOD QUESTION?

 

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL

A GOOD QUESTION?

 

 

Being qualified to preach is knowing how to give answers to the questions of the human being.

 

 

 

                                        AS a theologian I learned that the answer to humanity's greatest question I can never give. Therefore, I know that as a professional I have failed in my career. However, as a child of God who has the support of Heavenly Father through his Holy Spirit, I know that I will present the best answer to the existential emptiness of the individual: separation in his relationship with Heavenly Father, founded on Jesus Christ.  As Christians we have to be prepared to solve the questions that are presented to us: how to achieve salvation? After giving life to Christ what? Etc. But, questions such as the specific treatment of the rapture, the Trinity, the eternal life, we can give assumptions because we do not know exactly what will happen. We believe that the Holy Spirit guides and reveals us, but it does not mean that it is a straitjacket for God's final response. For example, today we hear many prophets talking about the imminent coming of Jesus Christ, they even give specific dates, totally outside the biblical approach, so did God fail to speak to this human being? Or was it the inner emotions of this that I want to talk about?

 

"Then the Sadducees came to him, saying that there is no resurrection, and they asked him, saying."

 

Mark 12. 18

 

Everything that happened to Jesus of Nazareth, most likely we will also experience. For that, we are left with the Testimony, the Q, the synoptic Gospels and John so that we learn what we have to do in certain situations that will be very similar, as Jesus Christ lived. On this occasion a religious group from his time came to Jesus to test him. This would not be easy, but Jesus Christ was ready.

 

“Master, Moses wrote to us that if someone's brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no children, that her brother marries her, and raise offspring to her brother. There were seven brothers; the first took a wife, and died without leaving any offspring. And the second married her, and died, and left no offspring; and the third, in the same way. And so, the seven, and they left no offspring; and last of all the woman also died. In the resurrection, then, when they rise again, whose wife will she be, since the seven had her as their wife? "

 

Mark 11. 14

 

 

And are we prepared to give convincing answers? Is our relationship with Heavenly Father so intense that we know how to give answers guided by his Holy Spirit? How far are we willing to go with our relationship with God.

 

God bless you.
