ГОЛЕМИТЕ И МАЛКИТЕ НЕЩА

ГОЛЕМИТЕ И МАЛКИТЕ НЕЩА

Забелязали ли сте, че дори между хора с една и съща вяра често има много разногласия, по отношение на Бога, вечните истини и вярванията, които изповядват?

Докато си мислех защо се случва така, осъзнах, че има два основни вида убеждения, които си изграждаме: убеждения за големите неща и убеждения за малките неща.

И проблемите в нашите взаимоотношения – разделенията в църквите, общностите и семействата – често се появяват, когато придаваме твърде голяма важност на убежденията ни за малките неща.

Убежденията относно големите неща са основополагащи истини за това как функционира реалността. Убежденията за малките неща са насочващи идеи, които ни помагат да разберем как точно функционира реалността.

Убежденията за големите неща имат пряко въздействие върху начина, по който функционира животът. Убежденията за малките неща нямат такова влияние.

Убежденията за големите неща винаги са свързани с функциите на живота. Убежденията за малките неща са инструменти, които ни помагат да разберем и да се научим как да прилагаме убежденията си за големите неща.

Убежденията за големите неща имат пряко въздействие върху здравето и щастието. Убежденията за малките неща само илюстрират тези ефекти.

Убежденията за големите неща имат последствия. Убежденията за малките неща – не.

По-долу са дадени някои примери, които съпоставят големи и малки неща, за които хората имат убеждения, които се различават. Помислете как фокусирането върху малките неща често е в основата на разделението в нашите семейства, църкви и общности.

 

Голямо нещо: Живот в хармония с Божиите закони на дизайна четете блога

Малко нещо: Подчинение на списък с религиозни правила

Голямо нещо: Смисълът (истините), съдържащи се в Писанието
Истините в Писанието са тези, които изцеляват ума ни и ни правят свободни (Йоан 8:32). Думите са средство, чрез което се предава смисълът, а думите имат стойност само дотолкова, доколкото ефективно предават Божията истина. Затова заменяме еврейските и гръцките думи с думи на език, който хората могат да разберат, за да бъде разбран смисълът (истините) на Писанията.

Малко нещо: Думите, които съставляват Писанията четете блога
Да спорим дали тази или онази дума в даден текст е правилна или дали тази или онази версия е “най-точна” – вместо да се интересуваме дали истините, смисълът, се предават ясно.

Голямо нещо: Разделяне на хората въз основа на характера им  четете блога
Честен и нечестен, лоялен и нелоялен, милостив и жесток, любящ и егоистичен и т.н.

Малко нещо: Разделяне на хората по раса, племе, език, националност, пол, икономическо положение и т.н.

Голямо нещо: Кръщаване със Светия Дух четете блога
Преживяване на потапяне на сърцето и ума в пречистващата сила и присъствие на Бога.

Малко нещо: Методът на ритуалното кръщение


 Голямо нещо: Да приемем в ума си истината (плътта) на Исус и в сърцето си любовта/живота (кръвта) на Исус (Йоан 6:53-58) четете блога

Малко нещо: Методът на церемониалното причастие и приемането на безквасен хляб и   гроздов сок

 

Голямо нещо: Да живеем скромно, така че да представяме Исус с външността си, облеклото и действията си четете блога

Малко нещо: Съставяне на списък с правила за обличане – носене на религиозни шапки, яки или шалове, забрана за бижута, вид дрехи, игри

 

За съжаление твърде много хора се фокусират върху малките неща, като пренебрегват големите. Те спорят за церемонии, ритуали, метафори, символи и различните методи на обучение, които имат за цел да ни доведат до реалността на Божието царство, но изглежда никога не приемат и не практикуват  Божиите закони на дизайна в начина, по който живеят и се отнасят към другите.

Testimony 70

I have been watching you for many years and have learned to love God with all my heart. I was raised by a loving Christian mother that had been lied to about who God really was, so our religious upbringing was hell fire and damnation. As soon as I was old enough and moved out, I not only left the church, I ran as fast as I could to get away from it. Sad to say, it wasn’t until the past couple of years that I learned and understand who my Father really is and how much He loves me. I understand God’s Design Laws (which make sense) and when I’m teaching my church Bible study class, I’m able to really put to use the things I’ve been learning and Holy Spirit is leading. Thank you for introducing me to my Father of true, pure love. Everyday with Him is new and exciting. One thing that breaks my heart is that I didn’t know Him sooner. God Bless you and your ministry!

We really appreciate your views on the judgment and they make good sense considering our free choice.

Testimony 66

I am incredibly grateful for the transformative impact you’ve had on my life, and words cannot fully express my appreciation. Over the years, I have been an avid listener and follower of C&R and extend my heartfelt thanks for creating the C&R mobile app. It has allowed me to immerse myself in your lessons repeatedly, enabling me to grasp the profound significance about the Character of God, Design Law, the protocols for life, the reasons behind the current chaos, and Christ’s mission to restore everything. They have deeply touched me. Having studied with various churches, I came away with the perception that God is no different from the deities of ancient Greek or Roman mythology—demanding sacrifices and taking pleasure in bloodshed. Thanks to your transformative teachings, I have experienced a profound awakening to the true nature of God and the immense power of His love. It is truly a remarkable and liberating sensation to finally grasp the truth and embrace the empowering nature of God’s laws. My self-perception has become brighter and more infused with love. My journey of growth continues on a daily basis.

Testimony 63

I’ve been very blessed by “The God Shaped Brain” and this ministry, through video and podcast, over the last few years. It’s truly opened up my eyes more to the truth about God and the importance of that truth in the present world. The message is so inviting, freeing and enlightening and MORE people need to know about it. I believe it is the last message that can truly, not only prepare a people for salvation and translation, but vindicate the character of God.

Michael V., Yonkers, NY, USA

 

Testimony 33

I was invited over a friend’s house to see the “God and Your Brain” seminar today. I became [a christian] 36 years ago at the age of 19, but have struggled with the concept of God taking His ‘pound of flesh’ out on His Son to be appeased. Wow. Your seminar has been an incredible revelation and breath of reason and fresh air! I have your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” and it is SO eye opening. Finally, after 36 years enlightenment has come! Praise the Good Lord! What can I say, but that the Real Gospel is truly “Good News!” Thank you for your efforts in giving the Gospel a clear sound!

Paul C.,  Springfield, MA, USA

 

Testimony 3

My husband is a pastor and I listen to your lesson almost every week. Thank you for helping me in my study life and to help me love the “real” God more.

C. F., NC, USA

 

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)

N. B., Canada

 

Testimony 31

It was very touching to hear the testimony of your class share how viewing God’s true character has changed their lives. My feelings are the same – there is so much freedom in knowing that God LOVES me – regardless of my… just, REGARDLESS! I’m still blown away by the true gospel, the fact that God is not ready to strike us when we fail. He is not arbitrary. He simply loves us and warns of the natural consequences because He can’t stand to see us suffer. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GOD!!!

Ceil V.,  UT, USA

 

Testimony 69

After reading your book, ‘Could It Be This Simple,’ someone was explaining Christianity in a way that made sense to me for the first time in my life. One morning, I simply prayed “I’m sorry and I love you.” As soon as I silently said that, I could literally feel God’s presence and light flood down on me from above and fill me up with love and joy. I sat there crying my eyes out, because I was so overpowered with this feeling of love and joy. It was just so incredible. I hope that more people can read this book and get a blessing from it. It’s really amazing.

Testimony 53

I was so blessed by a friend who gave me your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” while I was sitting in church asking God to please help me learn more about Him and help me not to be so confused and scared. That was about 2 years ago. Your books have helped me to love God even more. I’m not confused or scared anymore! I have listened to all of your bible study classes and feel like I know the wonderful people that attend every week. Thank you for all that you’re doing in spreading the true message about God and His law of love. God bless you and your whole class.

Testimony 50

After coming into contact with Come And Reason Ministries, I can finally say that many of my unanswered questions have fallen into place. I discovered that my view of God’s Law was “imposed laws and rules” with “imposed punishments” and that this was the major culprit of my many unanswered questions. Thanks be to God for using you and those around you to help us who have struggled with this “infection” of thought. I have now rejected the “imposed law” concept to fully embrace “Design Law”… to look thru “Design Law,” instead of “imposed law,” is a relief.

Viliami L., Australia

 

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.

Laura G., London, Ontario, Canada

 

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.

Melissa H., IN, USA

 

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!

Antony N. – Hobart, Australia

 

Testimony 72

I am blown away by the truth that you present. God’s Design Law makes so much sense! You have validated my impression that, if God is love, He would not kill those who don’t want to know him. If God gives us choice, then how can He destroy us if our choice is not to follow him. Thank you for opening my eyes and heart to the pure love of God seen through Jesus. The love I now have for Jesus is deeper and free from condemnation. My heart has been opened to love others as Jesus loves me. May God continue to bless your God-given insight into His word and your ministry. The truth has set me free!

H. Miller, Centereach, NY
