Jezus spłaca nasz dług Bogu

Jezus spłaca nasz dług Bogu

Właśnie znalazłem ten cytat i chciałem zapytać, jak go zrozumieć:

„Sługa, który okradł swego pana, nie miał nic, czym mógłby to zło naprawić. Grzesznik, który okradł Boga z lat służby, nie ma możliwości oddania swego długu. Jezus staje między grzesznikiem a Bogiem, mówiąc: Ja spłacę dług. Zachowajmy grzesznika; będę cierpiał zamiast niego.” (Review & Herald, 14 grudnia 1911, ust.16)

Jak mamy to zrozumieć? Wszystko zależy od tego, przez jaką soczewkę patrzymy na ‘prawo’.

Jeśli wierzymy, że Boże rządy są takie, jak starorzymskie rządy dyktatorskie, gdzie prawo (nie zawierające samo w sobie żadnych konsekwencji) jest narzucane pod groźbą kary oraz wymaga nadzoru, wówczas czytelnik widzi w powyższym cytacie prawne odpłatności – o których tak naprawdę nie ma tu mowy.

Jeśli jednak zaczniemy od poznania Boga takim, jak objawił Go Jezus – zrozumiemy Jego charakter miłości, zdamy sobie sprawę z tego, że Bóg powołał życie do istnienia na zasadzie protokołów stworzenia, które są wyrazem Jego charakteru miłości – wówczas czytając takie cytaty dochodzimy do zupełnie innych wniosków.

Patrząc przez pryzmat prawa miłości uświadamiamy sobie, że ludzkość została stworzona w kontekście niebiańskiej wojny o charakter Boga. Kiedy Bóg stworzył człowieka, aniołowie już istnieli (zob. Hioba 38:3‑7). Ludzkość została obdarzona życiem, zdolnością do rozmnażania się i władania, jak również światem tętniącym pięknem i życiem. Bóg stworzył rasę ludzką w zaufaniu, że ujawni prawdę o Jego charakterze. Tak samo, jak Bóg Ojciec, Bóg Syn i Duch Święty wchodzą w jedność miłości i stwarzają istoty na swój obraz, tak też ludzkość została stworzona jako mężczyzna i kobieta na obraz Boży, by zjednoczyć się w miłości i dać początek istotom na swój obraz. Jakiej lekcji Adam i Ewa mogliby udzielić, gdyby pozostali lojalni wobec Boga i mieli dzieci w bezgrzesznym świecie? Czy znęcaliby się nad nimi, zdominowali je lub zniewolili? A może raczej w samopoświęceniu chroniliby, wychowywali i kochali je, stając się dla nich błogosławieństwem?

Biblia mówi, że jesteśmy podręcznikiem – teatrem / widowiskiem – dla aniołów (1 Koryntian 4:9). Czego nauczyliby się aniołowie, gdyby Adam i Ewa pozostali wierni Bogu? Obserwując ich życie, powiedzieliby: „Och, teraz rozumiemy. Bóg nie stworzył nas po to, byśmy Mu usługiwali; On sam bezustannie daje z siebie dla naszego dobra i szczęścia!” Kłamstwa szatana wyszłyby na jaw!

Jednak Adam i Ewa zawiedli Boże zaufanie i przedstawili Go w fałszywym świetle. Poprzez swój zły wybór wyrządzili wiele szkody zarówno Świątyni Ducha jak i całemu stworzeniu. Ludzkość nie była w stanie naprawić tych szkód, odwrócić krzywd ani odwołać zniesławienia Bożego charakteru. Tak więc człowiek był winien Bogu dług moralny, dług zaufania, dług miłości, dług zmarnowanych możliwości i środków – a nie dług prawny! Jezus ujawnił prawdę o Bogu, rozwinął w sobie doskonały ludzki charakter, wypełnił cel, w jakim został stworzony Adam – i dzięki temu stworzenie zostanie odnowione, co jest równoznaczne z anulowaniem długu poprzez naprawienie szkód (uleczenie) i spełnienie celu stworzenia człowieka.

Bóg jest wspaniały! Zapraszam Cię, byś zachwycił się pięknem Jego charakteru oraz jeszcze bardziej upodobnił się do Niego!

Testimony 20

I just wanted to personally thank you for your teachings and insight into scripture. I came across your website via my cousin who suggested I look into “Healing the Mind” information. My youngest daughter has been struggling over the last couple of years and it all came to a head this spring. When I started listening to the “Healing the Mind” lectures my own life began to be transformed. I began sharing with all my daughters the concepts you laid out so clearly. I ordered your book and soaked it up. I just want to say “Thank You!” My walk with the Lord has been refreshed and renewed. Your obedience to the Lord is a blessing to so many.

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 11

I would love to have a copy of “Healing the Mind” DVDs to have in my therapy office. I enjoy having clients check out materials to enhance their therapy experience. I have sat under Dr. Jennings’ teaching at an American Association of Christian Counselors convention and respect his work greatly.

Testimony 65

I have been tuning into your weekly study classes for a while now and wanted express my appreciation for the teachings that ha been a huge blessing in opening up the true message of the word. Viewing scripture under an imposed law theory always, without fail, raised more questions, concerns, and conflicting scripture interpretations that were discouraging at the very least. Looking at scripture through the design law lens has brought more truth to light for me personally and an understanding of our Heavenly Father that places Him “above all others,” where I am now more than thrilled to witness and serve Him.  I “stumbled” across this ministry a year or so ago and would only watch a few minutes at a time. But the more I listened and the longer I paid attention, the more my spiritual eyes were opened to the ever present truths of scripture. The comprehension of the great controversy and it’s origin by the lies perpetrated and perpetuated throughout the Bible on the attack of God’s character and government is truly priceless. Keep up the Good Work! Your servanthood is desperately needed in such a time as this!

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 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 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 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 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 56

I cannot thank you enough for opening my understanding to the beautiful truth of God’s Law of Love and how it applies to everything. I have been a Christian for over forty years, but I feel like I am only now seeing with my eyes open. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

Tammy Cinzio, Australia

 

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.

Rachael H.

Testimony 75

Thank you so much for everything you do! Because of all these truths, I’m excited to be with Jesus! I always pray everyday, “COME TODAY, JESUS.” Before finding C&R, I was always praying for delays, “NOT TODAY OH GOD. I AM NOT READY.” I just need to share more, talk more bout this truth, so everybody will be excited for Jesus.

J C Shin

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 61

I grew up in a prominent protestant church and had what I like to call religious anxiety. I’ve always had questions about God and Salvation that no one could seem to answer.  I didn’t know how to find resolution. During 2020, at the height of my anxiety, I fell to my knees and begged God to show me truth and light and to give me the hope that I’ve been longing for. Days later, I stumbled upon your online videos and it was like a veil was lifted and EVERYTHING made sense! For the first time in my almost 39 years of life, my religious/spiritual anxiety has lessened. I feel a sense of freedom and peace I’ve NEVER had before… and it’s all because my view of God has changed. Thank you!

Testimony 8

Thank you for the ministry you are sharing with us, it is a real blessing to us and especially to my husband and myself! You are encouraging us to think for ourselves and not just to except everything, without thinking it through, with God’s word!
