El sacrificio infinito de Cristo

El sacrificio infinito de Cristo

Esta más allá de la comprensión humana describir el sacrificio infinito de Cristo en la salvación de la humanidad. Esta más allá de la mente humana comprender la pérdida, y condescendencia.

Jesucristo es Dios, preexistente, con vida originada en Él mismo, no prestada por nadie ni derivada de su Padre. Él era uno con Dios desde la eternidad:

En el principio ya existía el Verbo, y el Verbo estaba con Dios, y el Verbo era Dios Él estaba con Dios en el principio. (Juan 1:1,2)

Jesús, Dios el hijo es la agencia de la Deidad a través de quien todas las cosas fueron hechas:

porque por medio de él fueron creadas todas las cosas en el cielo y en la tierra, visibles e invisibles, sean tronos, poderes, principados o autoridades: Todo ha sido creado por medio de él y para él. Él es anterior a todas las cosas, y todas las cosas por Él subsisten..  (Colosenses 1:16-18)

Y Dios, como el creador de espacio y tiempo, como sostenedor del Universo, es un ser infinito que existe por afuera y más allá de nuestras limitaciones de tiempo y espacio.

Al único y bendito Soberano, Rey de reyes y Señor de señores, al único inmortal, que vive en luz inaccesible, (1 Timoteo 6:15,16 enfasis mio)

Dios, el Creador infinito, vive en una realidad de luz que es inaccesible para seres finitos. Nosotros no podemos acercarnos, no porque Dios puso alguna regla en observancia que prohibe nuestro asceso o algunas barras de seguridad que nos impiden seguir el camino, pero porque es la realidad: Seres finitos simplemente no pueden asimilar y procesar realidades infinitas – es más allá de nosotros.

Por lo tanto, Dios, quien es amor, y deseando la relación más íntima con su creación, sale de su infinidad e interactua con nosotros en nuestra realidad lineal, en nuestro espacio-tiempo. Jesús es el miembro de la Divinidad que, a través de toda la eternidad, ha estado de intermediario, el enlace entre Dios y sus criaturas inteligentes. Jesús es el mediador – el embajador de Dios – Los pensamientos de Dios hechos audibles y visibles a las mentes infinitas.

 Toda la plenitud de la divinidad habita en forma corporal en Cristo; (Colosenses 2:9)

Antes de que Adan pecara, Jesús se manifestaba o aparecía en la forma de sus criaturas creadas, pero Él no habia tomado la naturaleza de sus criaturas. Antes de su encarnación, Jesús retenía todas las prerrogativas y habilidades de la divinidad – se mantenía omnipresente, omnisciente y omnipotente. Jesús tenía en si mismo la habilidad de estar en todos los lugares al mismo tiempo, pero también de estar en todos los tiempos a la vez – significa que Él experimentó la eternidad del pasado y el futuro simultaneamente.

Pero con su encarnación, Jesús no solo apareció como un humano; Él se volvio un humano, fusionando su divinidad con nuestra humanidad.

Porque nos ha nacido un niño, se nos ha concedido un hijo; la soberanía reposará sobre sus hombros, y se le darán estos nombres: Consejero admirable, Dios fuerte, Padre eterno, Príncipe de paz. (Isaias 9:6)

Esto fue una unión permanente. “Porqué de tal manera amó Dios al mundo que dió a su hijo unigénito”(Juan 3:16) Jesús no fue prestado a la raza humana. Jesús fue dado a la raza humana por siempre para ser uno con nosotros – para ser humano por siempre.

La actictud de ustedes debería ser como la de Cristo Jesús:

Quien, siendo por naturaleza Dios, no consideró el ser igual a Dios como algo a qué aferrarse. Por el contrario, se rebajó voluntariamente, tomando la naturaleza de siervo y haciéndose semejante a los seres humanos. Y, al manifestarse como hombre, se humilló a sí mismo y se hizo obediente hasta la muerte, ¡y muerte de cruz!

Por eso Dios lo exaltó hasta lo sumo y le otorgó el nombre que está sobre todo nombre, para que ante el nombre de Jesús se doble toda rodilla en el cielo y en la tierra y debajo de la tierra, y toda lengua confiese que Jesucristo es el Señor, para gloria de Dios Padre.(Filipenses 2:5-12)

Jesús nació en Belén, Él no solamente dejó la infinidad por un poco de tiempo – Él salió de la infinidad por toda la eternidad futura. Jesús en el cielo hoy retiene su humanidad – sin pecado y perfecta – pero todavía restringida por la carne del cuerpo humano. Ahora Jesús envía su representante, el Espíritu Santo, para que haga por Él lo que el solía hacer por Él mismo: Existir en todos los lugares y todos los tiempos.

Pero les digo la verdad: Les conviene que me vaya porque, si no lo hago, el Consolador no vendrá a ustedes; en cambio, si me voy, se lo enviaré a ustedes…..Pero, cuando venga el Espíritu de la verdad, él los guiará a toda la verdad, porque no hablará por su propia cuenta, sino que dirá solo lo que oiga y les anunciará las cosas por venir. Él me glorificará porque tomará de lo mío y se lo dará a conocer a ustedes. Todo cuanto tiene el Padre es mío. Por eso les dije que el Espíritu tomará de lo mío y se lo dará a conocer a ustedes. (Juan 16:7, 13-15 enfasis mio)

Está más allá de las palabras humanas describir el infinito sacrificio de Cristo para la salvación de la humanidad. Está más allá de la mente humana comprender la pérdida, y la condecendencia. Está más allá de nosotros porque somos finitos e incapaces de enterderlo, procesarlo, o apreciar la infinidad totalmente.  Podemos escuchar las palabras. Podemos entender el concepto, pero no podemos realmente apreciar la profundidad de este sacrificio.

Solo podemos comtemplar, estudiar, y estrechar nuestro entendimiento, y al hacerlo, creceremos en la apreciación a Dios. Pero este crecimiento, este avance en nuestro conocimiento de lo que Cristo ha hecho, no es ni será completo. Será una experiencia eterna, porque no importa que tanto nos imaginemos, no importa cuanto lo asimilemos, no importa cuanto lo aceptemos, siempre habra más – un almacén infinito de verdad que estará más allá de nuestro actual conocimiento.

A Dios sea la gloria, grandes cosas a hecho Él!

Testimony 54

I had a lot of pressure, as a pastor’s kid, to conform and be “good.” I was good at being “good.” I thought my life was going along well until it all started falling apart and I could not figure out why! In my search for “why is this happening to me, God?” I came across your book, “Could it be this Simple,” and God started revealing to me the many distortions I held about His character, His principles, and how He has designed His universe to operate. I remember thinking, “Wow, I have had this all backwards.” I was happy and angry all at the same time. Happy to have the light of truth break through the darkness, revealing a wonderful, beautiful way of understanding God and His plan for His children, and angry, because I felt deceived and cheated by the church, my family, and myself!

My heart thrills when I listen to your bible study lessons. Literally I have gone from death to life. It is a journey I look forward to every day, as God reveals areas this distortion affects. Praise GOD! I will ever be grateful to God for this ministry and your cooperation with the Spirit!

Testimony 24

I wanted to thank you very much for presenting your understanding of God. I’ve always been troubled by this question: Why did Jesus have to die? Since my conversion I understood that The Father & Jesus are one, I did not have issues with that. But was there not any other way to save us than for Jesus to die? I guess I actually had a question about God – if He is so wise, how come He did not find another way? I did not see the real ‘beauty’  in the cross. Only when you explained the picture in the medical context, Jesus providing medicine for my selfishness, have I started to finally ‘see the light’. Thank you so much. Your seminar, “Healing the Mind,” are absolutely marvelous & have shared them with my family and many other people, including colleagues at work. Thanks, thanks, thanks. May God bless you abundantly in your ministry.

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.”

Testimony 51

I Love This Ministry!!!!!!! I see first hand how this message is desperately needed, how erroneous beliefs about God and His Character negatively affect humanity at every level. I thank God for your ministry, as I was searching on my own and was discovering some of your same beliefs and was blown away when I found your ministry. I know you hear it all the time, but it is truly life changing. May God continue to reveal His Will to you and Bless you!

Testimony 39

[This ministry is the] biggest blessing I have ever received! Your DVDs and lessons could not have come at a better time in my life. I have experienced in the past year many difficulties that, if it wasn’t for this wonderful view of God that I have discovered through this ministry, I would not have been able to respond in love and forgiveness. My heart is being transformed everyday by the Calvary-looking God you teach. Hallelujah!! I have tears in my eyes as I write, because my life has taken a complete turn from where I was heading.

I am from Central America. Most of my family is scattered in different parts of the world and all have the same view of God that I had growing up; a distant, exacting, and ready-to-punish-us-with-tragedy type of God. So, I have been translating lessons for my family and, to my surprise, they have also been sharing them with others! I can already see the difference. My brother has often said, “Thank you for sharing, I have never heard it this way!” My other family members are taking an amazing turn from a message of “repent or burn” towards a loving God, pleading to us that we won’t reject him because he loves us eternally.

Bless you for all you do.

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 76

Warm greetings from Tanzania! I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your team at Come And Reason Ministries for the amazing work you do. Your teachings have opened my eyes to deep biblical truths and how to live them out in real life. I started following the ministry back in 2018, and ever since, my walk with God has grown so much stronger. I’ve found freedom from fear-based faith and now live with more peace and trust in Him. I’ve also been sharing what I’ve learned, especially through Bible School discussions. Your lessons are so insightful and well-explained that I try not to miss a single one. May God continue to bless the work you’re doing.

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 27

Your teachings about our heavenly Father have changed my life. Thank you sooooooo very very much! I know He’s doing some serious healing in my heart and life and I look forward to each new day to learn something new about Him and to just hear you speak about Him. Thank you, forever.

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!

M.T., 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 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.

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 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.

Testimony 44

We were given a gift of the DVD set, “God and Your Brain,” and we just finished watching it. The truths in this are so powerful and truly an answer to a prayer. We’re seeing hope where once we thought God wasn’t answering our prayers to be free of certain mindsets. He answered with these DVDs and we are hungry for more. Thank you!

Daniel T., Easley, SC, USA
