КАК ВСЕКИ ЧОВЕК ПО СВЕТА ЩЕ НАПРАВИ СВОЯ ИЗБОР „ЗА“ ИЛИ „ПРОТИВ“ ИСУС

КАК ВСЕКИ ЧОВЕК ПО СВЕТА ЩЕ НАПРАВИ СВОЯ ИЗБОР „ЗА“ ИЛИ „ПРОТИВ“ ИСУС

Чудили ли сте се някога как всеки човек по света ще има шанс да направи своя избор „за“ или „против“ Христос преди Неговото завръщане? Това често предизвиква безпокойство у някои хора, когато размишляват за всичко, което трябва да се случи преди Второто пришествие. В края на краищата, при положение че всеки ден се раждат нови хора, и предвид факта, че има хора, които живеят в отдалечени райони или на места, на които правителствата не позволяват на евангелските работници да отидат, как е възможно всеки човек да получи шанс да избере Исус, преди Той да се върне? И ако нямат възможност да изберат, това означава ли, че Исус никога няма да дойде?

Всеки ще направи ясен избор и събитията в света са тези, които довеждат хората до критичната точка на вземане на решение. С постоянната глобализация на света, с нарастването на натиска и принудата от страна на правителствата, с премахването на свободите, с увеличаването на лъжите, със засилването на страха и егоизма и с настъпването на криза след криза, правителствата ще допълват своите закони и ще увеличават изискванията, манипулацията и контрола си.

Когато това се случи, всеки човек ще бъде изправен пред избора дали да живее по Божия закон, или по закона на греха и смъртта.

Божият закон е законът на любовта, истината и свободата. Той се проявява в това да обичаме Бога и другите повече от себе си, да защитаваме потиснатите и да уважаваме индивидуалността на другите.

Законът на греха и смъртта е мотивът за оцеляване на по-силния, продиктуван от страха и нуждата му да защити себе си, особено за сметка на другите. Това означава да си готов на всичко, за да оцелееш, дори ако това означава да убиеш други хора, за да спасиш себе си.

Когато навлизаме в последните дни преди Второто пришествие на Христос, Бог позволява събитията да се развият по такъв начин, че всеки човек да бъде изправен пред избора на Исус – но не по евангелизаторски начин, не под формата на призив към олтара или изповядване на вяра. Не, изборът, който всеки човек прави „за“ или „против“ Исус, става явен от принципите и методите, които избира и практикува по отношение на  функционирането на реалността.

Всеки от нас решава чий закон ще прилага в живота си в начина, по който се отнася към другите.

  • Дали ще:
    обичам другите повече от себе си и следователно ще представям истината на другите с любов, като им оставям свободата да решават сами; дали ще жертвам себе си, ресурсите си и сигурността си, за да помагам, защитавам и приютявам другите?
  • Или ще:
    обичам първо себе си, като укривам истината поради страх от отхвърляне, отмъщение, арест, уволнение от работа, цензура; дали ще разпространявам лъжи, ще принуждавам другите, ще подкрепям правителства, които нарушават личните свободи, ще използвам сила; ще докладвам на правителството за други, които не се подчиняват; ще отказвам да приютявам другите, да ги защитавам и да им помагам?

По избора ни как се отнасяме към другите, се разбира чий закон приемаме – Божия или този на Сатана; така всеки човек избира дали да приеме или да отхвърли Исус в последните дни, дори и тези в най-отдалечените места, които никога не са чували името Исус, защото нашият Спасител казва:

“А когато дойде Човешкият Син в славата Си, и всичките [свети] ангели с Него, тогава ще седне на славния Си престол. И ще се съберат пред Него всичките народи; и ще ги отлъчи един от други, както овчарят отлъчва овцете от козите; и ще постави овцете от дясната Си страна, а козите от лявата.” (Матей 25:31-33)

И забележете, че Исус не разделя хората въз основа на раса, националност, култура, вероизповедание или деноминация. Исус разделя хората въз основа на това какъв закон изпълняват в начина, по който се отнасят към другите и съответно към Него:

„Тогава царят ще рече на тия, които са от дясната Му страна: Дойдете вие благословени от Отца Ми, наследете царството, приготвено за вас от създанието на света.  Защото огладнях и Ме нахранихте; ожаднях и Ме напоихте; странник бях и Ме прибрахте; гол бях и Ме облякохте; болен бях и Ме посетихте; в тъмница бях и Ме споходихте.

Тогава праведните в отговор ще Му кажат: Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен, и Те нахранихме; или жаден, и Те напоихме? И кога Те видяхме странник, и Те прибрахме, или гол и Те облякохме? И кога Те видяхме болен или в тъмница и Те споходихме? А Царят в отговор ще им рече: Истина ви казвам: Понеже сте направили това на един от тия най-скромни Мои братя, на Мене сте го направили.

Тогава ще рече и на тия, които са от лявата Му страна: Идете си от Мене, вие проклети, във вечния огън, приготвен за дявола и за неговите ангели. Защото огладнях и не Ме нахранихте; ожаднях и не Ме напоихте; странник бях, и не Ме облякохте; болен и в тъмница бях, и не Ме посетихте.

Тогава и те в отговор ще кажат: Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен, или жаден, или странник, или гол, или болен, или в тъмница и не Ти послужихме? Тогава в отговор ще им рече: Истина ви казвам: Понеже не сте направили това на ни един от тия най-скромните, нито на Мене сте го направили. И тия ще отидат във вечно наказание, а праведните във вечен живот.“ (Матей 25:34-46)

Да, всеки един човек ще избере дали да обича другите или не. Умолявам ви да изберете Исус в начина, по който се отнасяте към другите!

Testimony 29

Thank you for all of your work to correct misconceptions about God’s character. So many people that my husband and I have talked to seem to be against the natural law construct and view it as “errant” and “dangerous.” Having learned more about it through your blogs and lessons, I don’t really understand why they view it that way, except that it means they have to relearn theology they have known for their entire lives. But I’m so excited to relearn this. For the past few years I have been questioning how I could trust a God who punishes arbitrarily and is full of wrath for those who don’t obey His commands. That view made me afraid to “mess up” or “not be good enough,” even within my relationship with God. I really appreciated the point you bring out about God not wanting us to serve Him because we are afraid, but because we love Him.

Testimony 62

I would like to express my thanks to the C&R team for creating a platform from which people can learn to trust in God and grow. My life is a witness to the effectiveness of this ministry. Without believing the truth about God as you have shown, I don’t know what my life would be like. I had given up on God helping me with certain sins – it was all useless. Given that the scripture is clear and God is so good, how could I have betrayed him so many times? I was a yo-yo christian; spinning up and down. My faith and enthusiasm was driven by discoveries/threats that prophecy is about to be fulfilled. But when I watched your “Healing the Mind” seminar, it was like a light finally went on. I could see God had no plan to hurt me, the danger came from sin, and that He is working to protect me and strengthen me. Thank you for allowing God to use you. The message God gave C&R saved my life!

Testimony 38

Since November 2015, when I started studying Gods word from this God Is Love point of view, my life has been transformed. My troubled marriage of 15 years has been healed and my husband and I are truly happy for the first time in 15 years. Now When I read the word of God I understand it so much better and I can’t help but see Gods love radiating through the pages to humanity. Gods word is living and active and I am blessed beyond measure to be having this amazing experience. God has given me a beautiful understanding of Jn 3:16 that amazes me more and more each day. Thank you again for your ministry.

Testimony 71

When I was 9 years old, I remember setting at our devotional table with a hunger and thirst for God that wanted more, deeper, BETTER. I can remember literally crying and pounding on the table, “I know these teachers didn’t mean to give us error. They taught what THEY had been TAUGHT, but didn’t ANYBODY READ THE BOOK?!?!?” It mattered to me then. It mattered to me as a teenager. It matters now as I teach bible classes. It didn’t have to be so hard as I watched so many give up and lay God’s great plan and gift of salvation aside as being “impossible.” Then, a friend sent me a link to Come And Reason’s website. I grew excited. YES! FINALLY! Then another friend told me to stay away, saying her son had just broken up with a girl because she was involved with Come And Reason and that “Tim Jennings preaches a false gospel.” But, AFTER many years of developing an authentic and, dare I say FUN relationship with Jesus, through the Holy Spirit I see this message has been around a LONG time, since the apostle Paul, Ellen White, Graham Maxwell, Ray Foucher, and yourself (though I admit, you’ve made me back up, rewind and replay the clips, and get out my well-worn Bible on a few things.) I’m so thankful I have found LIGHT during these DARK days. I am not alone.

I’m a youth leader in South Africa. We as a youth group are currently using a lot of the material on the Come and Reason site. Since we’ve started using the material, our youth group has grown.

Testimony 43

Two years ago I stumbled upon your book, “Could It Be This Simple,” and then found “The God-Shaped Brain” videos on YouTube, your bible study class, and the ‘Come And Reason’ mobile app. I shared your book with a friend and after nine months of showing love, patience, and kindness this person has been changed by the love of God, too. The same love that healed me, I now express to other women in tangible ways, such as to a Baptist woman with high anxiety and childhood trauma. She was extremely happy and relieved when I shared about the so-called “judgment of God” and burning in hell. She had no desire to serve a God that was so harsh. I have repeated the phrase dozens of times to her. “What we believe has power over us, but we have power over what we believe…”

This message that you are sharing has changed my life. I will continue to serve other women and bring this message of God’s healing love to their lives by sharing your books, YouTube videos, and The Remedy Bible app. Keep up the good work. Don’t be discouraged. God is doing a mighty work in and through this ministry!

Testimony 34

I was introduced to Come and Reason Ministries by accident, via a passing comment made in a bible study class we were visiting. I checked this website out and my life was changed. The understanding of the truth of God’s character, and how we apply it, is so right. The tricky part is consistently applying which “lens” to look through. As I began to understand, I started sharing the basics of this understanding with a discussion group I was leading and, suddenly, a lot of things started to make sense that never used to. At the same time, I enjoyed an amazing opportunity. I was able to conduct a full bible study at WORK! What an amazing experience! It is such a joy to share the truth about God and to share how it all fits in the war between God and Satan. So many people benefit when we have a correct understanding about how God works and who He really is! Thank you for this transformational understanding. Keep up the good work! God Bless you!

Testimony 21

I am absolutly on fire with the message at Come and Reason! I can’t get enough! I’ve read your book, blog, and articles. I’ve listened to your Bible study podcasts, your radio show, and your series – all excellent! It wasn’t until the past couple of years that I have I like I’m becoming “healthy,” with more to share with others than just beasts and commandments! I used to be a Bible worker and preached when the pastors were gone until I had had enough. I didnt realize at the time what the problem was, but i know now… the message wasn’t properly focused. Now my flame is rekindled. All of your little examples are so perfect in explaining something “complicated” and making it easily understood! Now I’m trying to shape it into a life changing evangelistic series! Thank you!

Testimony 5

We listen to your bible studies lessons in our class in Montana. You actually were the main reason I decided to get a laptop, so I can go to your site and listen, read, learn, and print the class notes. I am so grateful to learn the correct view of God and his character. Now, to just have others have an interest in knowing, so I can share it with them. Good thoughts your way.

Testimony 68

Your message of design law vs imperial law is so uplifting and makes so much sense- it is a game changer for me. The fact that Jesus’s death is not a big payment by an angry God is , quite frankly, a relief.

Testimony 7

Ok, so last night I listened to “The Law of Liberty” and “How to Achieve Victory: Freedom, Truth and Spirtual Warfare.” These are both MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far! The logic is just soooooo beautiful. I had to re-listen to them a couple of times. I just want to EXPLODE! (<< we assume with joy and happiness)

Testimony 15

I have been sharing Come And Reason Ministries Bible study lessons with several folk. You have such a beautiful view of the plan of salvation. If we had this message preached when I was young, my generation would still all be in church.

Testimony 40

I was brought up in a different faith and have been petrified my whole life of God. I believed that I would burn in hell for eternity. When I was 12 I started pursuing the things of this world, but for the next 45 years the Spirit was always calling me, as I knew there was a God through nature. I could see the vast sea of stars in the universe and knew there was something bigger out there. Five years ago, through a Revelation seminar, I was blessed to learn about God’s character and government.

Then I found Come and Reason Ministries and have come under some extreme pressure when I speak about the ministry. One time a member sent me an internet article titled “Whats wrong with Tim Jennings?” I asked her what she thought of it and she said “I don’t know, I didn’t read it.”

I have always wanted to find out for myself the truth about God, so I stayed with the Design Law construct and have been liberated to understand the big picture. Once we consider Design Law, all other Bible stories and prophecies seem to fit perfectly. It is truly beautiful to see people grasping how God operates this Universe of Love and the liberation it has provided in their lives. It blows my mind to see how consistent Design law is with what our founders believed. I hear statements like “This makes so much sense.”

Tom W., Mt. Pleasant, MI, USA

 

Testimony 10

I personally download and listen to each of Come And Reason Ministries Bible study class lessons and PDF study notes to use when teaching my class. Really appreciate the class especially when Dr. Jennings is teaching. Thank God there are persons like him doing His work and traveling to share His beliefs.
