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 22

I have found your Bible study class lectures to be very inspiring and useful as I prepare to teach class every other week. I subscribe to the podcast and download your notes on the weeks I teach. The audio and notes are such a great help in preparing. My own understanding of God’s character has grown as I teach the class. Commendations on the thought-provoking and well-prepared material Come and Reason provides. Personally, I get excited by the tie you make between the spiritual and mental/physical domains.

Testimony 13

I borrowed “Healing The Mind” DVDs from a friend and showed them at my home for a small gathering of women friends. Neither of my friends are Adventist, but they both enjoyed and embraced the messages you taught. In fact, one of the ladies prayed out loud in our group and that was the first time she had ever had public prayer.

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 have been really blessed reading your response to the various questions on your site.

Testimony 30

God lead me to your book “The God-Shaped Brain” while I was searching for another book about the brain and then to your interview about your book on HeartWise Ministries [where] I found out about [Come And Reason Ministries]. I’m now devouring the webcasts of your Bible studies. I have been so greatly blessed and I thank God so much for your courage to speak the Truth in love no matter what. Listening to you contrast the two opposing systems (laws) and digging deep to unearth the hidden treasures in the Bible makes me so incredibly happy and I feel very blessed to be part of your Bible Study Group although I live far away. I am just so excited that there is a group of people that is spreading the Truth about the character of God and it saddens me how few realize what our Father in Heaven is really like.

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!

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 36

Thank you and may God continue to bless you as you share with others the intricacies of how we are all “fearfully and wonderfully made”. I must share that you have opened a whole new world to me, and I have found tremendous healing through what you have shared in two of your books, “Could It Be This Simple?” and “The God Shaped Brain.” I praise God for what you shared, what I have learned, and how I have grown and healed! My prayer is that My Precious Jesus will be seen by others in the way I live, act, talk, etc. and they may be encouraged to know He is truly a GREAT God of LOVE, desiring that no one should perish! God Bless you in your continued endeavors to present Him as He really is!

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.

Testimony 1

Thank you! I love listening to the Come And Reason Ministries Bible study classes and am using some of your notes to get the lessons together that I will be teaching. You always have such good quotes and Bible texts and pull things together to make good sense.

T. C., IN, USA

 

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 46

Over the past couple of years God has been expanding my view of Himself and His character. Along my approximately 40-year journey, I have often had questions, but was hesitant to voice these and step outside the traditionally accepted thinking, for fear of admitting that I may in fact be eternally lost. In the recesses of my thinking has been the thought – if one blindly accepts (which is widely regarded as “real faith”) and does not question, is this really ‘truth?’ I often find it challenging to grapple with very theological ‘speak,’ but Dr. Jennings has a real gift of explaining spiritual concepts with clear practical examples. The weekly discussions are growing my Christian experience and slowly changing my view of how to live as a child of God in today’s complex world. Finally the whole Old Testament sanctuary teaching moved in my mind from fantasy to reality!

Testimony 2

I continue to enjoy your lessons every week. The more that I research your conclusions, the more I am convinced that the Holy Spirit has lead you to distill out the essence of human redemption. Thank you for your courageous stand for the truth.

Testimony 25

I just want to say thank you so much for your conversations via YouTube. I regularly tune in to your lectures, “Let’s Talk” sessions, and many others. Through these I’ve found greater depth and meaning to God’s word. Thanks for all that you do and please continue. I’m currently working in the middle of Silicon Valley at Stanford University. I feel like God really has me in the right place right now and I’m sensing that your teachings might be part of it.

Testimony 67

I was introduced to Come And Reason by a friend of my mother-in-law, who gave me several CD’s of Dr. Jennings. The clarity of the message and recognition that God’s is a God of love was so clear, advancing beyond Dr. Maxwell’s message. However, grappled with Maxwell saying God used emergency measures for the fallen world. Now after several years of being a regular listener of the Come And Reasoning bible study class and attending Jennings’ meetings in Dallas/Fort Worth, TX, things are becoming clearer for me. Design law versus imposed law has added so much to my personal understanding of theology. This message has really impacted my work in counseling so many people miserable because they are searching for and trusting human governments to create order and peace or believing in a God who says love Me or I will kill you. I am grateful that I have an alternative view to offer my clients that makes sense. I teach a bible study class on a semi-regular basis and I value the materials that Come And Reason so freely offers to aid me in presenting this vital message. Thank you for continuing to provide advancement in our very limited understanding of a Infinite God that is rational and believable.

Dr. Roger D, Arlington, TX, USA
