КАКВО ОЗНАЧАВАТ ИЗРАЗИТЕ  “КРЪВТА НА ИСУС” И “БОЖИЯТА РЪКА”?

КАКВО ОЗНАЧАВАТ ИЗРАЗИТЕ  “КРЪВТА НА ИСУС” И “БОЖИЯТА РЪКА”?

Слушах един от Вашите подкасти, в който говорехте за истинското значение на фразата “кръвта на Исус”. Бихте ли могли да дадете по-подробна информация за тази фраза, както и за израза: “Божията ръка”?

Изразът “Божията ръка” можем да открием в някои истории, като например, когато Бог направил така, че благостта Му да мине пред Мойсей и го покрил с “ръката Си“. Какво всъщност представлява “Божията ръка”? Дали това е Неговият промисъл? Светият дух?

Задавам този въпрос, защото Библията е изпълнена с образи на докосване от Бога и днес много хора използват фразата “Бог докосна сърцето ми” или “това и това се нуждае от Божието докосване”.

Но какво всъщност означава това?

M.

Библията е пълна с всевъзможни символи и образи, предназначени да ни помогнат да разберем по-дълбоки и значими истини. Но една от опасностите при тълкуването на символиката е, даден символ да се превърне в основен фокус на нашето внимание или въз основа на него да си правим окончателни заключения. Чудесен пример е този, който споменахте – “кръвта на Христос”.

В някои среди на християнството “кръвта на Христос” се счита за свещена, мистична или дори магическа. Съществува разбиране, че кръвта на Христос е нещо повече от символ на по-дълбока истина. Вместо това се смята, че тя е реално лечебно или очистващо средство. Използваме изразите, че сме “очистени от кръвта”, “умити в кръвта” и пеем песни за “силата в кръвта”. Но дали наистина има сила в кръвта? Дали кръвта, тоест самите червени кръвни телца на Исус, ни очистват от греха?

Когато Исус казва: „Истина, истина ви казвам, ако не ядете плътта на Човешкия Син, и не пиете кръвта Му, нямате живот в себе си. Който се храни с плътта Ми и пие кръвта Ми, има вечен живот; и Аз ще го възкреся в последния ден. Защото Моята плът е истинска храна, и Моята кръв е истинско питие. Който се храни с Моята плът и Моята кръв, той пребъдва в Мене, и Аз в него. (Йоан 6:53-56), дали Исус е говорил за буквална кръв – за канибализъм? Разбира се, че не! В кръвта няма никаква сила. Силата е в Този, който е пролял кръвта Си!

Кръвта е символ на истината за Бога, която унищожава лъжите и ни прави свободни. Исус, бидейки Бог, е източникът на цялата истина “Аз съм пътят, истината и животът.” (Йоан 14:6). Следователно цялата истина произлиза от Исус. Освен това “животът е в кръвта” (Левит 17:11, 14). Следователно кръвта на Исус представлява и живота на Исус. Така че символиката на поглъщането на кръвта просто означава, че трябва да поглъщаме истината за Бога, разкрита от Исус, която разсейва лъжите и спечелва доверието ни. А след това чрез вяра трябва да приемем Светия Дух и да участваме в живота на Христос, в Неговия съвършен характер, така че вече не ние да живеем, а Христос да живее в нас! Както казва Петър, ние действително ставаме участници в божественото естество. Нашите характери стават като този на Исус, но това не се постига чрез физическата “кръв” на Христос, а чрез това, което Неговата кръв символизира – истината за Бога и Неговия съвършен характер.

Що се отнася до “Божията ръка”, ръката е символ на сила и действие или активност. Следователно “Божията ръка” символизира Божието действие или активната роля на Бога в дадено обстоятелство или в живота на човека.

Гръцката дума за ръка χείρ [cheir /khire/] означава не само част от тялото, но също така и нечия “помощ/съдействие/посредничество”. А когато се прилага за Бога, символизира Неговата мощ, действие и сила. Коренът на думата „хиропрактик“ – човек, който лекува с полагане на ръце, е точно тази гръцка дума за ръка.

Интересно е, че думата, използвана за благодат, както в случая с „Божията благодат“, е тясно свързана с думата „ръка“. Тя е: χάρις [charis /khar-ece/] и се превежда като благоволение или благодат. Вярвам, че Божията благодат е действена и е нещо повече от отношение на прошка, доброта или благоволение. Благодатта е активното действие на Бога с цел спасение и изцеление на Неговата вселена. Така старозаветната “Божия ръка” и новозаветната “благодат” са тясно свързани по смисъл и предават активната роля на Бога в това да служи на Творението си чрез Своята изцелителна любов!

Testimony 23

I would just like to add my voice to the many people who, I believe, must have contacted you to express their appreciation for the “Healing the Mind” DVDs. I’ve been listening to your Bible study class discussions for many years and I’ve been personally blessed by your research and teaching about the character of God.

L. G., Oakland, MI, USA

 

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 45

I have been confused for years about what [christianity] calls [its] most disgusting teaching. It has never made much sense to me and for that reason has been evermore empty. I have listened to your class off and on and have struggled determining what is truth, because of the resistance design law encounters in the church. So, I thank God for your ministry. What you teach makes sense. It’s logical and backed up by the power of love. I have never seen that in Christ until now. I am astounded by the insight that is found when we look at God’s ministry through design law. All strength to this message, as I believe it to be the power of God.

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!

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 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 52

Your unique way in spreading the truth is what we all need today. Most of us don’t recognize the contamination coming from all the lies and selfishness in the world. Because of our fear of death, we forgot how to live. Lies left and right. I was losing hope and faith, because of so many ideas that are always contradicting each other – so many questions answered by other, more complicated, questions – until I found your channel on YouTube.

You did not just give me answers, you also taught me how to answer new questions that arise in my mind. Now I see things differently. I see God’s mercy, grace, and Love everywhere, in spite of all the chaos that we all have done as humans. I don’t fear death anymore. Accepting the Truth and Love about God is truly a genuine Freedom from all the confusions, sufferings, selfishness, pain, and death.

I just wanted to say, thank you, sooooo much for revealing the real Remedy for our infected life. I have a new hope and now see the world in a different perspective!

Testimony 55

I was born [into the church], then I left it for many years. 10 years ago, I came back, but I could not take the hypocrisy and the lack of answers to the missing pieces. I struggled, but I did not abandon my commitment to know the truth. God is leading me to the simple understanding of his relevance and I am relearning what the church taught me as a youth… that he loves me, that he has led me to a knowledge of him such as I have never known. He is using Dr. Jennings to connect the dots that are now so apparent and hiding in plain sight!

Dean P., Arlington, TX, 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 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.

Chris P., Lake Mary, FL, 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 28

I have been following your Bible study class for about a year now. I must say I am impressed with how your ministry has grown. I took it upon myself to listen to all your lesson podcasts from the past and they have both enriched me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I have learnt a lot from this class. I have also noticed how the class has grown in spiritual strength. One of the things that benefited me is that now I am not afraid of God. I use to be, but now it has melted away. The second thing is that you helped me to have a real life relationship with God. Now He is my friend that was always there and I love having him with me all the time. Thirdly, because of this class, it inspired me to take over and lead a class. I have called it “Let Us Reason Together,” adapting your inquisitive style and creating a class of free thinkers.

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.

Elssy P., Modesto, CA, USA

 

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

Testimony 47

I can’t even begin to thank you and your ministry enough for introducing me to the Truth about a loving and merciful God! I have my daughter and her in-laws to thank for sharing with me “The God-Shaped Brain” as well as your website. I listen to the Bible study class lessons on my daily walk. May God continue to bless your thirst-quenching ministry!

Liz H., Port Angeles, WA, USA
