The Law of Life versus The Law of Death

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.  For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.  For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For the mind that is set on the flesh [sinful nature imbedded in our five senses] is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot.  Those, who are in the flesh, cannot please God. Romans 8:1-8.

Introduction

We must come to a point in our lives, but we are so tired of how we are at the things we are chasing, depression, anger, resentment, and most of all lack of peace. The law of sin, and death is basically describing two types of people. The first is those who are spiritually dead, but life physically alive and they live terribly frustrated, going through cycles of chaos. The second person is a religious person who is also spiritually dead and is trying to please God on their own terms. He has tried to figure out a way through his own works to do the will of God. Both find out sooner or later that this is a law of sin and death if we could do it on our own, we would not need Jesus.

Remember that the New Covenant has a new law, a new priesthood, new sacrifice, and a new walk. This is why the Old Covenant, which is the Old Testament was replaced with the New Covenant which is the New Testament. The new life of the Christian is the result of  being born again. Anyone who is outside of Christ (the New Testament) is under the law of the Old Covenant and is under the law of death.

The Law of the New Covenant

“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35

The word love here is “agape”. This is God’s love. God came to save mankind not to destroy mankind. The New Covenant came into being with the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus fulfilled the Old Covenant with its laws, ceremonies, and priesthood and had it laid aside. This occurred when Jesus stated on the cross “It is Finished”.

When God raised Jesus from the dead, and made Him head of a new covenant. He himself is a high priest, and we are his holy and royal priesthood. The rules for a daily walk are not found in Jesus’ teachings and Paul’s revelation. The new law of law is interpreted in a special way in 1st Corinthians 13. It is revelation of the grace of God. Is revelation of the sons of God. We are to walk that as the sons of Abraham walked in the realm of senses, but as a New Testament Creation Man who is born again and we are to walk in the spirit of love.

But I say, walk by the spirit, (by your born-again spirit yielded to the Holy Spirit) and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Gal. 5:16. He that walks by the flesh are those who walk by their five senses. The flesh is a lifestyle, a conduct that one chooses. The recreated spirit is to dominate the senses and govern our conduct.

We have the love of God. We do not need to pray for His love in us. Love does not come through prayer or fasting. We have received God’s love nature in our spirits. When we are born again when have received the nature of Father God. We are his children. We are born of Love. We do not need to pray for love because when we are born again, we have His love.

“God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.” Rom. 5:5

Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. I John 4:8

 Believing In Love

“So, we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” I John 4:16.

Now you can understand this new life, born again spirit, is governed by love. Satan has governed mankind, in darkness and hatred and selfishness. But now under a new authority by the Lord God and our New Birth, our daily life should be lived in love.

“Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law”. Romans 13:10

Jesus is that love that that fulfilled the old commandment and set it aside. Love established another commandment of love God does not to man the man in Christ to love him if he walks in fellowship, he cannot help but love him because man is now a lover. This is the solution to the human problem in the world. If Love governed, there would be no more wars, no more lawsuits, no more jails are prisons, all these things would cease to end.

Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor. I Cor. 10:24

Imitators of God

You see the problem is Sense Knowledge has failed and only God’s love can turn lives around. I have a teaching called “Spirituality and Collective Trauma.” Many children are brought up in very dysfunctional homes. Drug addiction, gangs, domestic violence, all these different things produce deviant and criminal behavior. As you know, we teach in the prisons and I’ll tell you time again if you look at our testimonies of these men on our Webpage who we minister to have had a lifetime of trauma that has produced very negative behavior. The hatred and selfishness that they experienced produced criminals, but love produces beautiful people.

You see the New Creation is born from the love of God. For God so loved the World that He gave. Jn. 3:16.

The failure of Christianity is not a failure of the nature of God in men, but it is because men has substituted church organization for the new creation. Sense Knowledge has gained supremacy in the church, and Jesus is no longer the Lord or head of the church, worldly minded men rule most of the churches. It must be fully understood that the 10 Commandments are never given to the new creation, and that the new commandment was never given to the natural man. This, if it is, if it were known, would save much of the confusion among those who are teaching the law today.

The Law of Light and Darkness

“The one who says he is in the light but hates his brother or sister is in the darkness until now. The one who loves his brother or sister remains in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But the one who hates his brother or sister is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and doesn’t know where he’s going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.”  I John 2:9-11.

The moment we step out of love we step into darkness. Sense Knowledge rules them. Satan governs through selfishness.

“We know that we have passed from death to life because we love our brothers and sisters. The one who does not love remains in death. Everyone who hates his brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him. This is how we have come to know love: He laid down his life for us. We should also lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.” I John 3:14-16

Living the New Law

If anyone has this world’s goods and sees a fellow believer in need but withholds compassion from him—how does God’s love reside in him? Little children, let us not love in word or speech, but in action and in truth. This is how we will know that we belong to the truth and will reassure our hearts before him whenever our hearts condemn us; for God is greater than our hearts, and he knows all things. Dear friends, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive whatever we ask from him because we keep his commands and do what is pleasing in His sight. Now this is his command: that we believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another as he commanded us. I John 3:17-23

When we step out of love, we step into darkness. Scripture makes it very plain that our prayers and petitions are not answered because we remain in darkness. I know that many people are sick and full of disease and are not healed because they’re not walking in love. I know the church has failed miserably and helping one another. Instead of being a blessing at times they are a curse to one another full of backbiting, deceit and gossip. The next time you do not receive the petitions to your prayers check your love life.

Gracia: ¡la provisión ilimitada de Dios!

Gracia y paz os sean multiplicadas en el conocimiento de Dios, y de Jesús nuestro Señor. Como todas las cosas que pertenecen a la vida y a la piedad nos han sido dadas por su divino poder, mediante el conocimiento de aquel que nos llamó por su gloria y excelencia, por las cuales nos ha dado preciosas y grandísimas promesas, para que de ellas seáis partícipes. de la naturaleza divina, habiendo huido de la corrupción que hay en el mundo por los malos deseos. 2 Pedro 1:2-4

Introducción
La iglesia tiene un poco de entendimiento de la obra final de Jesucristo. Es como tener recursos sin desarrollar y nunca usarlos. Es como si la iglesia viviera con una mentalidad de pobreza e ignorancia y no entendiera que se está apostando por tremendas riquezas y recursos.
Nuestras vidas deben reflejar una sustancia misma del ser de nuestro Padre Dios. Si realmente pudiéramos aprovechar lo que dice la escritura anterior, caminaríamos en la habilidad creativa que se nos ha otorgado. Su poder milagroso que se manifestó en Jesús ha sido importante para nosotros.
Note cuidadosamente que la escritura dice que Él (Dios Padre) nos ha concedido todas las cosas que pertenecen a esta vida y piedad, y nos hemos hecho partícipes de su misma naturaleza. Esta naturaleza se llama la Vida Eterna, y Jesús dijo yo he venido para que tengáis vida y vida en abundancia, pero la iglesia es eso que anda en vida abundante.

La Creatividad del Espíritu Humano Recreado Nacido de Nuevo
Todo lo que hemos recibido en el Nuevo Nacimiento es por FE. Escritura declarada en Heb. 11:1-3 “Es, pues, la fe la certeza de lo que se espera, la convicción de lo que no se ve. Porque por ella los ancianos obtuvieron buen informe. Por la fe entendemos que los mundos fueron hechos por la palabra de Dios, de modo que las cosas que se ven no fueron hechas de cosas que se ven.”

Heb. 11:6, “Pero sin fe es imposible agradarle; porque es necesario que el que se acerca a Dios crea que Él existe, y que es galardonador de los que le buscan solícitamente”.
[Y] Sin fe nadie puede agradar a Dios. [ Para; Porque] Cualquiera que viene a Dios debe creer que Él ·es real [existe] y que recompensa a aquellos que ·verdaderamente quieren encontrarlo [intensamente/sinceramente buscarlo]. (Biblia ampliada).

Entonces, como hombres y mujeres nacidos de nuevo, debemos entender que la naturaleza creativa de Dios nos ha importado. El pagano no tiene eso. Entonces, con el advenimiento del cristianismo, y la predicación de la palabra de Dios, y debo decir que la verdadera palabra de Dios, no la religión, produce el poder creativo de Dios como se cree en la fe.
Muchos supuestos cristianos quieren sustituir la Razón y la Educación para tratar de comprender la creatividad renacida que el Padre Dios nos ha impartido. No estoy en contra de la educación, pero entiendo perfectamente que entendemos a Dios Padre y Su palabra por nuestro hombre interior, nuestro hombre espiritual.
Tú y yo debemos entender que el Padre Dios nos ha dado un gran privilegio y tarea para estar junto con Él.
Juan 15:5, “Yo soy la vid; ustedes son las ramas. El que permanece en mí y yo en él, da mucho fruto, porque sin mí nada podéis hacer.
Trabajando junto con él, también te apelamos a ti: “No recibas la gracia de Dios en vano”. 2 Cor. 6:1
2 Cor. 5:17, “De modo que, si alguno está en Cristo, nueva criatura es; lo viejo ha pasado, y he aquí, lo nuevo ha llegado!”
Dios ha importado con su gracia todos Sus recursos para que los usemos con el contacto de nuestros atributos físicos y mentales. A la humanidad se le exigen cinco sentidos. Echo de menos cantidad de conocimiento, pero ese conocimiento no tiene valor sin la sabiduría de Dios y cómo la uso. Hay una escritura que dice que Cristo se ha convertido en sabiduría para nosotros a través de este conocimiento. ¿Qué está haciendo Dios en nosotros? Él está pensando en nosotros, iluminando los espíritus, iluminando nuestras mentes, renovándolas, para que respondan a su presencia interior. Cada persona que recibe la naturaleza y la vida de Dios Padre nos ha dado el derecho de usarlas en Su servicio.
Hemos estado mirando las cosas de Dios a través del llamado razonamiento, y debido a que confiamos en nuestros cinco sentidos y en la educación secular, nos perdemos muchos de los secretos y la sabiduría de Dios. El Espíritu Santo se revela a nuestros espíritus nacidos de nuevo recién creados y comenzamos a comprender y ver las obras de Dios. Necesitamos reconocer las habilidades dadas por Dios que usted tiene. Cada persona que ha nacido de nuevo ha recibido la naturaleza y la vida del Señor Dios, y sus prerrogativas divinas que nos asombran.

Conocimiento exacto
La siguiente escritura por la que he orado por muchos a lo largo de los años para su crecimiento espiritual. Esta oración del Apóstol Pablo por la iglesia es muy importante para que sigamos este consejo y modelo para orar por diferentes personas.
Por eso, también, desde el día que supimos esto, no hemos dejado de orar por vosotros. Os pedimos que seáis llenos del conocimiento de su voluntad en toda sabiduría e inteligencia espiritual, para que andéis como es digno del Señor, agradándole en todo, dando fruto en toda buena obra y creciendo en la (exacta o perfecta) conocimiento de Dios, siendo fortalecidos con todo poder, conforme a la potencia de su gloria, para que tengáis gran perseverancia (firmeza) y paciencia, dando gracias con gozo al Padre, que os ha hecho partícipes de la herencia de los santos en la luz. Él nos ha rescatado del dominio de las tinieblas y nos ha trasladado al reino del Hijo a quien ama. En Él tenemos la redención, el perdón de los pecados. Colosenses 1:9-14
La palabra griega usada aquí por Pablo es “Epignosis” significa el conocimiento y la sabiduría perfectos, exactos y completos provistos por Dios Padre para con nosotros. La palabra luz en griego significa un nuevo tipo de eficiencia y comprensión del metal que las mentes ordinarias no regeneradas no comprenden.
Ef. 1:18, “Oro para que los ojos de vuestro corazón (nuestro hombre interior) sean iluminados para que podáis saber (tener el conocimiento y la sabiduría completos) cuál es la esperanza de Su llamado, cuál es la riqueza de su gloriosa herencia en los santos”.
En 1 Juan 1:5, “…Dios es luz, y en Él no hay absolutamente ninguna oscuridad”. La oscuridad es una naturaleza espiritual que se manifiesta en el ámbito físico y psicológico. Todo lo que es fisiológico y psicológico tiene sus raíces en lo espiritual. Esta oscuridad puede abrumar y dominar a las personas. Cuando caminamos de acuerdo a la luz que nos proporciona la Palabra de Dios, la gracia de Dios, Su provisión, Su habilidad, nos guía mientras nos rendimos a Él.

El hombre interior
Ef. 3:16, “para que os dé, conforme a las riquezas de su gloria, el ser fortalecido con poder en el hombre interior por su Espíritu”.
Este mencionado interior del que habla Pablo es nuestro hombre espiritual. Dios nos fortalecerá según su capacidad y nos edificará a medida que fortalezcamos nuestra espiritualidad con su palabra.
Padre Dios, así como somos recreados, nacemos de nuevo, pero vamos a ser edificados y completos a través de Su Palabra. Él edificará Su Palabra en nuestro hombre interior a medida que nos rindamos a él. A medida que nos rindamos a él, seremos más como él.
Juan 1:3, “Todas las cosas por él fueron hechas; y sin él nada de lo que ha sido hecho, fue hecho.
La vida que está dentro de Jesús es la vida de Dios Padre. Y Su vida es nuestra luz, nuestra habilidad, nuestra sabiduría. El Espíritu Santo mismo se convierte en nuestro tutor, guiándonos de fortaleza en fortaleza, de éxito en éxito, de nuestra fragilidad humana a Su fortaleza dentro de nosotros. De nuestros fracasos a sus victorias. Su Dios, tomando el control, edificándose a Sí mismo en nosotros hasta que podamos decir con Pablo que ya no vivo yo, sino que Cristo vive dentro de mí. Gálatas 2:20.

Santificación Progresiva- Habilidad Divina Utilizada
Muy pocos cristianos se han aprovechado de Juan 14:26, 6. “Pero el Consolador, el Espíritu Santo, a quien el Padre enviará en mi nombre; él os enseñará todas las cosas, y os recordará todo lo que os he dicho.” Lo que Él ha traído a nuestra memoria es esa Palabra de Dios que tenemos escondida en nuestros corazones.
Qué todas las cosas que Él nos va a enseñar. Todas las cosas significan todas las cosas. Cualquiera que sea el esfuerzo en el que el Señor Dios te ponga, brillarás y su gloria responderá a las cosas que el Espíritu Santo te está enseñando. Él es nuestro maestro. Él es nuestro guía. Lleva el reino de la incertidumbre a la certeza absoluta. No es solo la realidad de Cristo, sino la realidad de todo lo que nos rodea, el gran mundo en el que caminamos y vivimos y más y tenemos nuestro ser. Es una habilidad que nunca hemos utilizado. Es fuerza mental y espiritual. Y Efesios 3:20 dice: “Y a Aquel que es poderoso para hacer todas las cosas mucho más de lo que pedimos o entendemos, según su capacidad, esa obra está en nosotros. Su gracia, Su habilidad, obra en nosotros a medida que trabajamos con Él. Gracia. Son los recursos infinitos de Dios. Todo lo que nos falta lo tenemos en Jesús. Estamos completos en Él.
ROM. 12:1-2, “Así que, hermanos, os ruego por las misericordias de Dios, que presentéis vuestros cuerpos en sacrificio vivo, santo, agradable a Dios, que es vuestro culto racional. Y no os conforméis a este siglo, sino transformaos por medio de la renovación de vuestro entendimiento, para que comprobéis cuál sea la buena voluntad de Dios, agradable y perfecta.”
Gracia y paz os sean multiplicadas en el conocimiento de Dios, y de Jesús nuestro Señor. Como todas las cosas que pertenecen a la vida y a la piedad nos han sido dadas por su divino poder, mediante el conocimiento de aquel que nos llamó por su gloria y excelencia, por las cuales nos ha dado preciosas y grandísimas promesas, para que de ellas seáis partícipes. de la naturaleza divina, habiendo huido de la corrupción que hay en el mundo por los malos deseos. 2 Pedro 1:2-4.

Grace- God’s Unlimited Provision!

Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord. According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through evil desire. 2 Peter 1:2-4

Introduction

The church has a little understanding of the finish work of Jesus Christ. It’s like having undeveloped resources and never using them. It’s like the church lives mentality of poverty and ignorance and doesn’t understand there’s a setting upon tremendous riches and resources.
Our lives should reflect a very substance of being of our Father God. If we could truly harness what the above scripture is talking about, we would walk in the creative ability granted to us. His miracle working power that was manifested in Jesus has been important to us.
Notice carefully that the scripture says He (Father God) has granted unto us all things that pertain to this life and godliness, and we have become partakers of his very nature. This nature is called the Eternal Life, and Jesus said I have come, that you might have life and life abundantly, but the church is that walking in abundant life.

The Creativity of the Recreated Born-Again Human Spirit
Everything that we have received in the New Birth is by FAITH. Scripture stated in Heb. 11:1-3 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.”
Heb. 11:6, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

[ And] Without faith no one can please God. [ For; Because] Anyone who comes to God must believe that He ·is real [exists] and that he rewards those who ·truly want to find [earnestly/sincerely seek] Him. (Expanded Bible).

So, as born-again men and women, we must understand that God ‘s creative nature has imported to us. The heathen does not have that. So, with the advent of Christianity, and preaching the word of God, and I must say the true word of God, not religion, brings about God ‘s creative power as it is believed in Faith.

Many alleged Christians want to substitute Reason and or Education in trying to understand the born-again creativity that Father God has imparted unto us. I am not against education but I understand fully that we understand Father God and His word by our inner man, our spirit man.

You and I must understand that Father God has given us a great privilege and task to with together with Him.

John 15:5, “I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me.

Working together with him, we also appeal to you, “Don’t receive the grace of God in vain.” 2 Cor. 6:1

2 Cor. 5:17, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!”

God has imported his grace all of His resources for us to use with the contact of our physical and mental attributes. To humanity five senses are required. I miss amount of knowledge, but that knowledge is no value without the wisdom of God and how do use it. There’s a scripture says Christ has become wisdom to us Through this knowledge. What is God doing in us? He’s thinking of us, illuminating on spirits, illuminating our minds, renewing them, so that they become responsive to his indwelling presence. Every person who is receive the nature and life of Father God has given us the right to use those in His service.
We have been looking at the things of God through called reasoning, and because we’re relying on our five senses and secular education, we miss a lot of the secrets and wisdom of God. The Holy Ghost reveals to our newly re-created born-again spirits and we begin to understand and see the workings of God. We need to recognize the God-given abilities that you have. Every person who has been born again have received the nature and life of the Lord God, and his divine prerogatives that amaze us.

Exact Knowledge

The following scripture I have prayed for many throughout the years for their spiritual growth. This prayer by the Apostle Paul for the church is very important so that we follow this advice and model to pray for different individuals.

For this reason, also, since the day we heard this, we haven’t stopped praying for you. We are asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, so that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and growing in the (exact or perfect) knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, so that you may have great endurance (steadfastness) and patience, joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has enabled you to share in the saints’ inheritance in the light. He has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son he loves. In Him we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Col. 1:9-14

The Greek word used here by Paul is “Epignosis” means the perfect, exact, and complete knowledge and wisdom provided by Father God toward us. The word light in Greek means a new type of metal efficiency and understanding that ordinary unregenerated minds do not comprehend.

Eph. 1:18, “I pray that the eyes of your heart (our inner man) may be enlightened so that you may know (have the complete knowledge and wisdom) what the hope of His calling is, what is the wealth of his glorious inheritance in the saints”.

In 1 John 1:5, “…God is light, and there is absolutely no darkness in Him.” Darkness is a spiritual nature that manifests itself in the physical and psychological realm. Everything that is physiological and psychological has its roots in the spiritual. This darkness can and does overwhelm and overpower people. When we walk according to the light provided to us by the Word of God God’s grace, His provision, His ability, guides us as we surrender to Him.

The Inward Man

Eph. 3:16, “That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inward man.”

This inward mentioned that Paul is speaking about is our spirit man. God will strengthen us according to his ability and build us up as we strengthen our spiritual his word.
Father God, as we are recreated, we are born again, but we are going to be built up and completed through His Word. He will build His Word into our inner man as we surrender to him. As we surrender to him will become more like him.

John 1:3, “All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.

The life that is within Jesus is the life of Father God. And His life is our light, our ability, our wisdom. The Holy Ghost Himself becomes our tutor, leading us from strength to strength, success to success, from our human frailty to His strength within us. From our failures into his victories. His God, taking over, building Himself into us until we can say with Paul it is no longer that I live, but Christ who lives within me. Galatians 2:20.

Progressive Sanctification-Divine Ability Utilized

Very few Christians have taken advantage of John 14:26, 6. “But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name; he will teach you all things, and bring to remembrance all that I have said onto you.” What has He brought to our remembrance is that Word of God that we have hidden in our hearts.

What all things that He is going to teach us. All things mean all things. Whatever endeavor that the Lord God put you in, you will shine and his glory as you respond to the things that the Holy Ghost is teaching you. He is our teacher. He is our guide. He takes the realm of uncertainty to absolute certainty. It is not only the reality of Christ, but the reality of all that surrounds us, the great world in which we walk and live in and more and have our being. It’s an ability that we have never utilized. It is mental and spiritual strength. And Ephesians 3: 20 says, “now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly above all that we ask or think according to His ability that work is within us. His grace, His ability, works in us as we work with Him. Grace. Is God’s unending resources. All that we lack we have in Jesus. We are complete in Him.

Rom. 12:1-2, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord. According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through evil desire. 2 Peter 1:2-4

¡La mente regida por los sentidos!

La mente no renovada está en guerra contra la Palabra de Dios. No cree en la Palabra de Dios. Siempre está orando por la fe, pero nunca llega. La mente no renovada siempre está luchando por obtener fe, siempre confesando fracaso, siempre hablando de incredulidad, diciendo que cree en la Palabra de Dios, pero su confesión y acciones son negadas por su estilo de vida. Nunca los ves actuando en la palabra de Dios. La clave para recordar es Pensar en la Palabra de Dios. Confesar la Palabra de Dios. Y actuar o vivir según la Palabra de Dios.
Cuántos cristianos siguen actuando como bebés porque la palabra de Dios no es número uno en sus vidas. Sus prioridades están mezcladas por lo que sus vidas están mezcladas. Sus mentes están confundidas porque no se concentran en la palabra de Dios. Es importante saber quiénes somos en Él para que podamos pensar en Su palabra, hablar Su palabra y actuar en Su palabra.
Muchos cristianos no saben quiénes son en Cristo Jesús, todavía son bebés en su fe, y por eso están continuamente hablando negativamente. Dios dice que estamos completos y nada nos falta. Sin embargo, esta no es la confesión de la iglesia. La iglesia siempre está confesando sobre la insuficiencia la falta de algo, pero las dos escrituras que les voy a compartir dicen que nada nos falta si nos falta es porque somos cristianos bebés y no conocemos las reglas del juego. Dios espera que vayamos a él con fe, no dudando, sino con fe, y si no vamos a él con fe, nada recibiremos de él.

Y vosotros estáis completos en Él, que es la cabeza de todo principado y potestad: Col. 2:10

Que la gracia y la paz os sean multiplicadas mediante el conocimiento de Dios y de Jesús nuestro Señor. Su divino poder nos ha dado todo lo necesario para la vida y la piedad mediante el conocimiento de aquel que nos llamó por su propia gloria y bondad. Por estas nos ha dado preciosas y grandísimas promesas, para que por ellas podáis participar de la naturaleza divina, escapando de la corrupción que hay en el mundo a causa de los malos deseos. 2 Pedro 1:2-4
• Gracia: la habilidad que Dios te da a través del entendimiento de Su palabra y las provisiones necesarias para hacer Su voluntad.
• Paz: el mundo ofrece caos, pero al apoyarnos en la palabra de Dios sabemos que él nos respalda y no tenemos miedo de las malas noticias. Salmos 112:7, “No temerá malas noticias; su corazón está confiado, confiado en el SEÑOR.”
• No temas; porque yo estoy contigo, no desmayes; porque yo soy tu Dios: te fortaleceré; sí, te ayudaré; sí, te sustentaré con la diestra de mi justicia. Es un. 41:10
• Ninguna arma forjada contra ti prosperará; y condenarás toda lengua que se levante contra ti en juicio. Esta es la herencia de los siervos de Jehová, y su justicia de mí, dice Jehová. Es un. 54:17

• ¿Qué, pues, diremos a estas cosas? Si Dios es por nosotros, ¿quién contra nosotros? ¿Quién nos separará del amor de Cristo? ¿La tribulación, la angustia, la persecución, el hambre, la desnudez, el peligro o la espada? Es más, en todas estas cosas somos más que vencedores por medio de aquel que nos amó. Por lo cual estoy seguro de que ni la muerte, ni la vida, ni ángeles, ni principados, ni potestades, ni lo presente, ni lo por venir, ni lo alto, ni lo profundo, ni ninguna otra criatura podrá separarnos del amor de Dios, que es en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro. ROM. 8:31-39
La forma en que pensamos es la forma en que hablaremos. Y la forma en que hablamos es la forma en que viviremos.

Las dos confesiones diferentes Quién es de doble ánimo.
Ahora bien, si a alguno de ustedes le falta sabiduría, que se la pida a Dios, que da a todos con generosidad y sin desgana, y se la dará. Pero que pida con fe sin dudar. Porque el que duda es como el mar embravecido, empujado y sacudido por el viento. Esa persona no debe esperar recibir nada del Señor. Santiago 1:5-7.
La escritura en esta Epístola de Santiago es un ejemplo perfecto de muchos en el cuerpo de Cristo. Quieren las bendiciones de Abraham con la fe de Tomás. (Juan 20:24-29) Señor Dios, cuando se presentó a Tomás, lo regañó por su falta de fe pero le dijo, maduro, bienaventurado, dichoso fuerte son los que pueden creer sin ver. Estamos rodeados por nuestros cinco sentidos. Nuestros cinco sentidos nos gobiernan, y eso es lo que nos da una confesión de doble ánimo. Este era el problema con Tomás y aquellos como él, él quería ver al Señor físicamente para poder creer. El Señor no le dijo a Tomás ni a la iglesia de hoy. Entiendo que eres débil y lleno de dudas, pero te ayudaré de todos modos. Dios dice que sin fe es imposible recibir nada de Él.

La forma en que pensamos es la forma en que hablaremos. Y la forma en que hablamos es la forma en que viviremos.

La Ley de los Cinco Sentidos. Carnalidad vs. Espiritualidad
Porque los que viven según la carne, piensan en las cosas de la carne (controladas por nuestros cinco sentidos), pero los que viven según el Espíritu, en las cosas del Espíritu. Porque el ocuparse de la carne (controlado por nuestros cinco sentidos) es muerte, pero el ocuparse del espíritu es vida y paz. Porque la mente carnal es enemistad contra Dios; porque no está sujeta a la ley de Dios, ni puede estarlo. ROM. 8:5-7 (RV).

Pero si el Espíritu os guía (espíritu nacido de nuevo recreado), no estáis bajo la ley.
(La carne-controlada por nuestros cinco sentidos). No estás tratando de vivir tu vida sin el control del Espíritu Santo sobre tu espíritu recreado nacido de nuevo (tu hombre interior). Pablo da una larga lista de obras de la carne que son tus cinco sentidos. Gálatas. 5:19, “Las ·cosas malas que hace el yo pecaminoso [obras de la carne/naturaleza pecaminosa] son ·claras [evidentes; obvio]: ·ser sexualmente infiel [inmoralidad sexual], ·no ser puro [impureza], ·participar en pecados sexuales [depravación; promiscuidad]. (Biblia ampliada).
La batalla que peleamos cada hora de cada día en nuestro caminar diario es ser guiados por nuestros cinco sentidos o dejar que el Espíritu Santo guíe nuestro espíritu recreado nacido de nuevo. Mi hombre interior, mi espíritu nacido de nuevo recreado, debe gobernar nuestros cinco sentidos. Esto sucede sometiendo cada pensamiento y cada experiencia a la Palabra de Dios. Aqui hay dos escrituras para ayudarnos en esta batalla.
·Así que [Por lo tanto] hermanos y hermanas, ya que Dios nos ha mostrado una gran misericordia, ·suplico [urjo; apelar a] vosotros para que ofrezcáis vuestras ·vidas [yoes; cuerpos] como un sacrificio vivo para él. Tu ofrenda debe ser ·sólo para Dios [santo] y agradable a él, que es lo ·espiritual [o auténtico; verdadero; o apropiado; adecuado; o racional; manera razonable] de adorar. No seas ·formado por [conformado a; prensado en un molde por] este ·mundo [edad]; en cambio, sé ·cambiado dentro [transformado] por ·una nueva forma de pensar [o cambiando la forma en que piensas; la renovación de tu mente]. Entonces podrás ·decidir [discernir; prueba y aprueba] lo que ·Dios quiere para ti [es la voluntad de Dios]; sabrás lo que es bueno y agradable para él y lo que es perfecto. (Rom. 12:1-2. Biblia Ampliada).
Luchamos con armas que son ·diferentes de las que usa el mundo [no meramente armas humanas; no de la carne-cinco sentidos]. Nuestras armas tienen poder de Dios que puede destruir ·los lugares fuertes del enemigo [ plazas fuertes; fortalezas]. Destruimos ·los argumentos de la gente [razonamiento humano; sofismas] y toda ·cosa orgullosa [pretensión; opinión exaltada; cosa alta] que se levanta contra el conocimiento de Dios. Captamos cada pensamiento y lo hacemos obedecer a Cristo. Estamos listos para ·castigar [vengar] ·cualquiera que no obedezca [toda desobediencia], ·pero primero queremos que obedezcas completamente [una vez/después de que tu obediencia sea cumplida; una vez que la iglesia en su conjunto se arrepienta, Pablo disciplinará a los que se nieguen]. Debes mirar los hechos que tienes ante ti [o estás mirando sólo las apariencias externas]. Si te sientes seguro [tienes confianza] de que perteneces a Cristo, debes recordar [considerar de nuevo] que nosotros pertenecemos a Cristo tal como tú. (2 Cor. 10:4-7, Biblia Ampliada).
Dios está diciendo juzga todo lo que tus cinco sentidos te presenten con Su palabra. Su palabra es como una lámpara a nuestros pies y una luz en nuestro camino [ muestra cómo se debe vivir la vida. (Salmos 119:105, Biblia ampliada).
• La forma en que pensamos es la forma en que hablaremos. Y la forma en que hablamos es la forma en que viviremos.

El Nuevo Tipo de Conocimiento

• La Fe Contradice las Circunstancias
….porque Él mismo ha dicho, “Nunca te dejaré ni te desampararé.” Entonces, podemos decir con denuedo: “El SEÑOR es mi ayudador; no temeré ¿Qué puede hacerme el hombre?” Heb. 13:5-6.
• Caminamos por Fe no por nuestros sentimientos.
• La gente habla de derrota, enfermedad y pobreza.
• Pensar mal, creer mal y hablar mal resultará en una vida incorrecta.
• La fe ve la respuesta y dice ¡Gracias Padre!
quien llevó él mismo nuestros pecados en su cuerpo sobre el madero, para que nosotros, estando muertos a los pecados, vivamos a la justicia, por cuya herida fuisteis (tiempo pasado) sanados.
1 Pedro 2:24.
Y mi Dios suplirá todo lo que os falta conforme a sus riquezas en gloria en Cristo Jesús. Fil. 4:19.
El SEÑOR es mi luz y mi salvación; ¿A quién temeré? El SEÑOR es la fortaleza de mi vida; ¿De quién tendré miedo? Salmo 27:1.
Porque de cierto os digo, cualquiera que dijere a este monte: Quítate y échate en el mar, y no dudare en su corazón, sino creyere que se hará lo que dice, todo lo que diga le será hecho. . Marcos 11:23
• La fe real en Dios simplemente dice lo que Dios dice acerca de ellos mismos y las circunstancias.
• ¡Cree en tu corazón!
¿Qué es el corazón? No es tu corazón físico y es tu hombre interior el que es tu espíritu. Tu corazón aquí se usa como la mayor parte de las profundidades internas de tu psique, siendo tu mente y tu personalidad.
El hombre bueno, del buen tesoro de su corazón saca el bien; y el hombre malo, del mal tesoro de su corazón saca el mal. Porque de la abundancia del corazón habla su boca. Lucas 6:45

Como crees, (piensas) así hablarás. Y como hables será como vivirás.

The Sense-Ruled Mind!
The unrenewed mind is at war against the Word of God. It does not believe the Word of God. It is always praying for faith but never arriving. The unrenewed mind is always struggling to get faith, always confessing failure, always talking unbelief, saying they believe in the Word of God but their confession and actions negated by their lifestyle. You never see them acting on the word of God. The key to remember is to Think on the Word of God. To confess the Word of God. And act or live according to the Word of God.
How many Christians are still acting like babies because the word of God is not number one in their lives. Their priorities are mixed up so their lives are mixed up. Their minds are mixed up because they’re not concentrating on the word of God is important to know who we are in Him so we can think on his word speak His word and act on His word.
Many Christians don’t know who they are in Christ Jesus, they are still babies in their faith, and because of that they are continually speaking out. God says that we are complete and him and we like nothing but yet this is not the confession of the church. The church is always confessing about insufficiency the lack of something, but the two scriptures I’m going to share with you state that we lack nothing if we are lacking it’s because we are baby Christians and we don’t know the rules of the game. God expects us to go to him in faith, not doubting, but in faith, and if we don’t go to him in faith, we will receive nothing from him.
And ye are complete in Him, which is the head of all principality and power: Col. 2:10
May grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. By these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires. 2 Peter 1:2-4

• Grace: the ability that God gives you through the understanding His word and provisions needed to do His will.
• Peace: the world offers chaos but through standing on the word of God we know that he has our back and we are not afraid of bad news. Psalms 112: 7, “He will not fear bad news; his heart is confident, trusting in the LORD.”
• Fear thou not; for I am with thee be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa. 41:10
• No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isa. 54:17
• What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom. 8:31-39
The way we think is the way we will speak. And the way we speak is the way we will live.

The Two Different Confessions Who Is Double-Minded.
Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God—who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly—and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith without doubting. For the doubter is like the surging sea, driven and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. James 1:5-7.
The scripture in this Epistle of James is a perfect example of many in the body of Christ. They want the blessings of Abraham with the faith of Thomas. (John 20:24-29) Lord God, when he presented himself to Thomas, he scolded him for his lack of faith but he said, mature, blessed, happy strong are those who can believe without seeing. We are surrounded by our five senses. Our five senses govern us, and that’s what gives us a double-minded confession. This was the problem with Thomas and those like him he wanted to see the Lord physically so he would believe. The Lord did not say to Thomas or even the church today I understand that your weak and full of doubt but I will help you anyways. God says without faith it is impossible to receive anything from Him.
The way we think is the way we will speak. And the way we speak is the way we will live.

The Law of the Five Senses. Carnality vs. Spirituality

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh (controlled by our five senses), but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded (controlled by our five senses) is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. Rom. 8:5-7 (KJV).

But if the Spirit is leading you (born again recreated spirit), you are not under the law.
(The flesh- controlled by our five senses). You are not trying to live your life with out the control of the Holy Spirit on your born-again recreated spirit (your inner man). Paul gives a long list of works of the flesh which are your five senses. Gal. 5:19, “The ·wrong things the sinful self does [works of the flesh/sinful nature] are ·clear [evident; obvious]: ·being sexually unfaithful [sexual immorality], ·not being pure [impurity], ·taking part in sexual sins [depravity; promiscuity]. (Expanded Bible).

The battle we fight every hour of every day in our daily walk is either to be guided by our five senses or by letting the Holy Spirit guide our recreated born-again spirit. My inner man my born again recreated spirit should govern our five senses. This happens by submitting every thought and every experience to the Word of God. Here are two scriptures to help us in this battle.

·So [Therefore] brothers and sisters, since God has shown us great mercy, I ·beg [urge; appeal to] you to offer your ·lives [selves; bodies] as a living sacrifice to him. Your offering must be ·only for God [holy] and pleasing to him, which is the ·spiritual [or authentic; true; or appropriate; fitting; or rational; reasonable] way for you to worship. Do not be ·shaped by [conformed to; pressed into a mold by] this ·world [age]; instead, be ·changed within [transformed] by ·a new way of thinking [or changing the way you think; the renewing of your mind]. Then you will be able to ·decide [discern; test and approve] what ·God wants for you [is God’s will]; you will know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect. (Rom. 12:1-2. Expanded Bible).
We fight with weapons that are ·different from those the world uses [not merely human weapons; not of the flesh-five senses]. Our weapons have power from God that can destroy ·the enemy’s strong places [ strongholds; fortresses]. We destroy ·people’s arguments [human reasoning; sophistries] and every ·proud thing [pretension; exalted opinion; high thing] that raises itself against the knowledge of God. We capture every thought and make it obey Christ. We are ready to ·punish [avenge] ·anyone there who does not obey [every disobedience], ·but first we want you to obey fully [ once/after your obedience is fulfilled; once the church as a whole repents, Paul will discipline those who refuse]. You ·must look at the facts before you [or are looking only at outward appearances]. If you ·feel sure [are confident] that you belong to Christ, you must remember [consider again] that we belong to Christ just as you do. (2 Cor. 10:4-7, Expanded Bible).
God is saying judge everything that your five senses present to you by His word. His word is like a lamp for our feet and a light for our path [ it shows how life should be lived. (Psalms 119:105, Expanded Bible).
• The way we think is the way we will speak. And the way we speak is the way we will live.

The New Kind of Knowledge
• Faith Contradicts Circumstances
….for He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So, we may boldly say: “The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” Heb. 13:5-6.
• We walk by Faith not by our feelings.
• People speak defeat, disease, and poverty.
• Wrong thinking, wrong believing, and wrong talking will result in wrong living.
• Faith Sees the Answer and says Thank You Father!
who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were (past tense) healed.
1 Peter 2:24.
And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Phil. 4:19.
The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall, I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1.
For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Mark 11:23
• Real Faith in God simply says what God says about themselves and circumstances.
• Believe in your Heart!
What is the heart? It is not your physical heart and it is your inner man which is your spirit. Your heart here is used that of most inner depths of your psych being your mind and your personality.
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. Luke 6:45
How you believe, (think) is how you will speak. And how you speak will is how you will live.

Redención: ¡el precio que pagó Jesús!

Redención es una palabra que está en la mente de la mayoría de los creyentes, pero realmente no entienden lo que significa. Redención es una palabra muy amplia, especialmente en griego, pero tiene dos puntos principales que quiero discutir cuando se llama volver a comprar, y el otro es la justicia de Dios.

La razón de la redención

Debemos entender que el mundo le pertenece al dios de este mundo, que es Satanás. Cuando Adán y Eva se rebelaron contra Dios, entregaron el título de propiedad de la tierra a Satanás. Era una transacción legal, y luego esa transacción legal tenía que cumplir con ciertos términos para que se cumpliera o cancelara. Se contrajo una deuda y se debía realizar el pago. El pago fue obra redentora del señor Jesucristo.
Es muy evidente que la humanidad no puede salvarse a sí misma. Debido a la rebelión de Adán y Eva, la humanidad quedó bajo el dominio de Satanás. Esa naturaleza de rebelión está en nuestros propios espíritus, por lo que Dios a través de su hijo, Jesucristo, vino a pagar el precio final para arreglar las cosas. La muerte y resurrección del Señor Jesucristo cumplió, la deuda final de la rebelión de la humanidad, y la transacción fue pagada porque ese Dios Padre cargó nuestros pecados y enfermedades sobre Jesús. La Escritura dice que Él (Jesús), que no conoció pecado, Dios lo hizo pecado para que nosotros seamos la justicia de Dios en Jesús.

Él quitó el pecado

Jesús no solo fue el portador del pecado, sino que Dios aceptó su sacrificio sustitutivo en nuestro nombre. La Escritura deja muy claro que Dios lo entregó a causa de nuestros pecados y cargó nuestros pecados sobre él. Él resucitó de entre los muertos porque Él lo quitó. Él satisfaría los reclamos de la justicia después de que fuera hecho vivo en el espíritu que es recreado. Él fue el primogénito de la muerte (Él es el segundo Adán) y fue declarado el primogénito de muchos hermanos por la vida de Dios Padre importada a Él. ROM. 8:29 “Porque a los que de antemano conoció, también los predestinó para que fueran hechos conformes a la imagen de su Hijo; para que él sea el primogénito entre muchos hermanos.”
Jesús se enfrentó al adversario en su propio reino, y despojó a Satanás de la autoridad, y le quitó todo el dominio que tenía sobre el mundo cuando Jesús resucitó de entre los muertos. Jesús no solo quita el poder del pecado, sino que también fue el sustituto en la redención. Por su sacrificio de que somos vencedores cuando Cristo resucitó de entre los muertos,
nos redimió y nos hizo más que vencedores en él. Y Efesios 1:7 dice: “En Él tenemos redención [es decir, nuestra liberación y salvación] por Su sangre, [la cual pagó la pena por nuestro pecado y resultó en] el perdón y el perdón completo de nuestro pecado, de acuerdo con con las riquezas de su gracia.” (Biblia Amplificada).

en quien tenemos

En las siguientes escrituras, debemos saber cuidadosamente lo que dicen. En quien tenemos es tiempo presente que significa nuestra redención de la mano del enemigo, para que Satanás ya no tenga dominio sobre nosotros. “Porque el pecado no se enseñoreará de vosotros, porque no estáis bajo la ley sino bajo la gracia”. ROM. 6:14
quien nos ha librado de la potestad de las tinieblas, y trasladado al reino del Hijo de su amor, Col. 1:13-14
También tenga en cuenta, con cuidado, que hemos sido librados de la autoridad de Satanás. Él no tiene dominio sobre nosotros. No permita que las opiniones de los teólogos o de las diferentes religiones le quiten la realidad a este hecho. Estás redimido. Satanás ya no tiene derecho a reinar sobre ti. Hemos sido librados de la autoridad de Satanás. Hemos sido trasladados al reino del Hijo del amor del Padre. Nuestro todo está ahora en Cristo, el Hijo de su amor en quien tenemos redención ahora. Esta redención de Satanás está en tiempo pasado, porque has sido redimido cuando entregaste tu vida al Señor Jesucristo naciendo de nuevo.

Esta es una Redención Eterna

Hay algunas religiones que dicen que todavía es necesario tener un continuo sacrificio de Cristo para el perdón de los pecados. Y debemos confesar nuestros pecados a un hombre pero Jesús es nuestro sumo sacerdote. “Cristo se ha manifestado como sumo sacerdote de los bienes venideros. En el tabernáculo más grande y más perfecto, no hecho de manos (es decir, no de esta creación), entró una vez para siempre en el Lugar Santísimo, no por sangre de machos cabríos ni de becerros, sino por su propia sangre, habiendo obtenido eternidad redención.” heb. 9:11-12

Esto significa que quien ha aceptado a Jesucristo como Salvador y Señor ahora es parte de la familia de Dios. Satanás está eternamente derrotado. Esa redención es una redención eterna. Dios a través de su Jesús satisfizo las exigencias de la justicia. Ese Hijo está ahora sentado a la diestra del Padre que es el primogénito de entre los muertos. La diestra del Padre y de Jesús nos liberó del dominio de Satanás. Jesús es la cabeza. Debemos conocer, entender y disfrutar nuestros derechos en la redención. Es muy importante que sepamos que la muerte de Cristo en la cruz y su sacrificio sustitutivo no solo satisfizo nuestras necesidades, sino que se retractó y canceló todos los pagarés del primer pacto para que todo hombre que creyera en la sangre de toros y machos cabríos, fue cubierta por la sangre, que redimió perfectamente por la sangre de Jesús,

“Por tanto, él es mediador de un nuevo pacto, para que los que son llamados reciban la promesa de la herencia eterna, por cuanto se ha producido una muerte para la redención de las transgresiones cometidas bajo el primer pacto.” heb. 9:15

“Pero ahora él se ha manifestado una vez, en la consumación de los siglos, para quitar el pecado por el sacrificio de sí mismo”. heb. 9:26

Somos Nuevas Creaciones

El cristianismo es más que un simple perdón de los pecados. Debemos entender que Jesús pagó el precio final por nosotros. Para que nosotros seamos re-creados en Jesús hubo que ser re-creados. Y Hechos 13:33-35. “Tú eres mi hijo este día que he creado día sé que lo resucité de entre los muertos ahora no más para volver a la corrupción.”

Col. 1:18 declara “que Jesús es la cabeza del cuerpo; una iglesia que comienza, el primogénito de entre los muertos, para que en todo tenga la preeminencia”.

1 Pedro 3:18 dice que “Jesús fue vivificado en un espíritu que no es del Espíritu Santo, pero su propio espíritu habíamos muerto en espíritu, y su cuerpo se hizo mortal, así que vosotros debéis resucitar”.

La nueva creación se llevó a cabo tal como se llevó a cabo la redención, tal como se llevó a cabo la justicia. Nuestra nueva creación se convirtió en un hecho, la mente de la justicia, en el momento en que Jesús fue vivificado en espíritu.

El lado vital

La persona que está en Cristo es una Nueva Creación, una nueva especie. La persona nacida de nuevo nunca existió hasta que se completó la obra de redención de Cristo. Cuando nacemos de nuevo, recibimos la misma naturaleza y vida de Dios. Debemos entender que esta nueva creación le espera a cada persona que no es salva. No malinterpreten que fuimos hechos en nuestro espíritu hombre la imagen de Dios cuando nacimos de nuevo. Cuando se completó la Redención, Cristo se sentó porque Su obra estaba terminada. Fue consumado cuando se aceptó la Sangre de Jesús.

Redemption-The Price Jesus Paid!

Redemption is a word that’s in the minds of most believers, but they really don’t understand what it means. Redemption is a very broad word, especially in the Greek, but it has two main points that I want to discuss when is called buying back, and the other is the righteousness of God.

The Reason for Redemption

We must understand that the world belongs to the god of this world, which is Satan. When Adam and Eve rebelled against God, they handed over the title deed of the earth to Satan. It was a legal transaction, and then that legal transaction certain terms had to be met in order for it to be fulfilled, and or canceled. A debt was incurred, and payment was to be made. The payment was redemptive work of the lord Jesus Christ.
It is very evident that mankind cannot save himself. Due to Adam and Eve’s rebellion mankind, became under the dominion of Satan. That nature that rebellion is in our very spirits so God through his son, Jesus Christ came to pay the ultimate price to set things straight. The death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled, the final debt of mankind’s rebellion, and the transaction was paid because that Father God laid our sins and diseases upon Jesus. Scripture says He (Jesus) who knew no sin God made Him to become sin so we become the righteousness of God in Jesus.

He Put Sin Away

Jesus was not only the sin bearer, but God accepted his substitutionary sacrifice on our behalf. Scripture makes it very plain that God delivered him on the account of our sins and put our sins on him. He was raised from the dead because He put it away. He would satisfy the claims of justice after he was made alive in spirit that is re-created. He was the first born out of death (He is the second Adam) and was declared the first born of many brethren by the life of Father God imported to Him. Rom. 8:29 “For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.”
Jesus met the adversary in his own kingdom, and striped Satan’s authority, and took from him all the dominion that he had over the world when Jesus rose from the dead. Jesus not only puts the power of sin away, but also was the substitute in redemption. Through His sacrifice that we are conquerors when Christ was raised from the dead,
He redeemed us and made us more than conquerors in him. And Ephesians 1:7 it says, “In Him we have redemption [that is, our deliverance and salvation] through His blood, [which paid the penalty for our sin and resulted in] the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace.” (Amplified Bible).

In Whom We Have

In the following scriptures, we must know carefully what they say. In whom we have is present tense that means our redemption out of the hand of the enemy, so Satan no longer has dominion over us. “For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law but under grace.” Rom. 6:14
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love, Col. 1:13-14
Also note, carefully that we have been delivered out of the authority of Satan. He has no dominion over us. Don’t let the opinions of theologians or different religions take away the reality of this fact. You are redeemed. Satan has no more right to reign over you. We have been delivered out of Satan’s authority. We have been translated into the kingdom of the Son of the Fathers love. Our all is now in Christ, the Son of his love in whom we have redemption now. This redemption from Satan is past tense, for you have been redeemed when you turned your life over to the Lord Jesus Christ being born again.

This is an Eternal Redemption

There are some religions that say it is still needed to have a continually sacrifice of Christ for the forgiveness of sin. And we must confess our sins to a man but Jesus is our high priest. “Christ has appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come. In the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands (that is, not of this creation), he entered the most holy place once for all time, not by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.” Heb. 9:11-12

This means whoever has accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord is now part of the family of God. Satan is eternally, defeated. That redemption is an eternal redemption. God through his Jesus satisfied the claims of justice. That Son is now seated at the right hand of the Father who is the first begotten from the dead. The right hand of the Father and the Jesus set us free from the dominion of Satan. Jesus is the head. We must know, understand, and enjoy our rights in redemption. It’s very important that we know that Christ death on the cross, and his substitutionary sacrifice not only met our needs, but reached back and canceled all the promissory notes of the first covenant so that every man that believed in the blood of bulls and goats, it was covered by the blood, that perfectly redeemed by the blood of Jesus, carried into the holy of holies They were redeemed as servants, we are redeemed as sons.

“Therefore, he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance, because a death has taken place for redemption from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.” Heb. 9:15

“But now he has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of himself.” Heb. 9:26

We are New Creations

Christianity is more than just a forgiveness of sin. We must understand that Jesus paid the ultimate price for us. For us to be re-created in Jesus had to be re-created. And Acts 13:33-35. “Thou art my son this day I’ve created day I know that I raised him from the dead now no more to return to corruption.”

Col. 1:18 states “that Jesus is the head of the body; a church, who is beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have preeminence.”

1 Peter 3:18 states that “Jesus was made alive in spirit that is not of the Holy Spirit, but his own spirit we had died in spirit, and his body became mortal so you must be made alive again.”

The new creation took place just like the redemption took place, just as righteousness took place. Our new creation became a fact, the mind of justice, the moment Jesus was made alive in spirit.

The Vital Side

The person who is in Christ is a New Creation, a new species. The Born-Again Person never existed until the work of redemption of Christ was completed. When we are born again, we received the very nature and life of God. We must understand this new creation awaits every person who is unsaved. Don’t misunderstand we are made in our spirit man the image of God when we were born again. When Redemption was completed, Christ sat down because His work was finished. It was consummated when the Blood of Jesus was accepted.

Redeem The Time!

Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk—not as unwise people but as wise—making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Eph. 5: 15-16

We live in a world that has its priorities very wrong. We can see that what God considers good and wholesome the world sees as evil. We turn to the news and see that only evil is glorified. We see that the things that God see as good and holy are mocked and discredited. The entire world as it states in 2 Cor. 4:4 is in the hands of the evil one. The need to walk in wisdom and integrity is paramount to be able to withstand the onslaught of Satanic activity. We need to use all of our resources including time wisely.

What does that mean, “to redeem the time? Well, let me ask you another question. If I were to ask you, “What is the thing in your life that you find hardest to manage? What is the thing that you so often find yourself short of, that you don’t have enough of?” What would you answer?

You might perhaps think money, but in my experience there’s one thing that’s much harder to manage than money, something that I’m much more often short of than money is time. I believe time is the hardest thing to manage properly in our lives. I believe that the stewardship of time is perhaps the supreme test of our discipline and our real Christianity. And so, I pray like the Apostle Paul, to redeem our time and use it to promote the Kingdom of God.

You see, your priorities of time really indicate the values of your life. Things that have low priority probably will drop off the bottom of the list. If you don’t give high priority to the things that really matter, your life will be out of order. So, you, like me, need to echo that prayer, Teach me to walk wisely making the most of the time you have given Father.
