God is magnificent and beyond our
understanding, yet he has given us a way to understand where we come from and
where we may end; all we have to do is to study the bible. We may recognize a
good part of him simply by paying attention to our surroundings and listening
to our hearth.
Today science will explain evolution where
a long process was at hand. Eventually we arrive to man as we know him today. Historically
man gave a name to what he could recognize, like did Adam in the bible, the
first man from creation, the humanity that God wants us to recognise as our beginning
and our ancestor for the start of our spiritual evolution reaching justice with
Abraham and true redemption with Jesus Christ. Adam is the example of our
present physiognomy and weakness, we are sinners saved by the grace of Jesus
Christ.
Man
identifies with what he knows, and everything man knows has a name, so recalls
the bible.
Nowadays everything seems to be accelerated,
commodities and distractions are making us very presumptuous, believing like
always that we can be self sufficient by having earthly forces, and forgetting
all concept of being under a greater power and will.
We must admit that intelligence, man’s intelligence,
had its beginning and if it really was spontaneous in the creation, man still
had to go through apprenticeship. Intelligence, consciousness, state of mind, love,
and other attributes, are all in togetherness with our soul. God wants us to be
healthy so that we may have eternal life. So our soul is what we must be more
concerned about.
The way to eternal life is given in the
bible. Jesus-Christ is the saviour of mankind; now we must do our best to
better ourselves and be grateful to have our saviour and lord Jesus Christ. The
bible contains the word of God which explains everything trough the experience
of the Jews.
Mankind will cry for help when all is lost
and all powerful God is merciful to reach and strengthen his people. Thousands
of years have passed by and mankind is still the same. The strong are not
questioning themselves, the weak are suffering, and those in the middle are
usually contempt and do not want to make waves, so crime, wars and love stories
remain the same. But the history of the Jews recalls how God disapproved abused
over his people.
Man came to identify that blood is what is
the most valuable, that blood gives life and blood purifies. A blood sacrifice
would be what appeases God the most and cleans someone of his sins so was the
belief, but God never asked for sacrifices. God for man’s sake had to put an
end to foolishness by sharing man’s hurt and implementing true meanings in
suffering hearths.
After the old covenant where10 written laws
were given by God to Moses, and multiple other laws were added, we now live
under the New Testament which is the grace of God.
Jeremiah 31:33 (New
International Version) “This is
the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time,” declares
the Lord. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I
will be their God, and they will be my people.34 No longer
will they teach their neighbor, or say
to one another, ‘Know the lord,’because they will all know me, from the least
of them to the greatest,”declares the Lord.“For I will forgive their
wickedness and will remember their sins
no more.”
Matthew 12,7 If you had known what these words mean, ‘I desire
mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent.8 For the Son of Man
is Lord of the Sabbath.”
God answers prayers:
The Old Testament is full of interventions
where God or “I am” favours justice. I believe that I am is the most
appropriate name for our creator, recalling our faith; many other names are
meaningful, the most common being God. The Old Testament recalls today’s man
full of interior constraints between God and social requirement, what was then approved
by the elders. There are the Ten Commandments and different Jewish laws that we
can find in the bible. Some laws are often what we would conceder as being mostly
sanitary rather than purification, others relate to the Sabbath. If the law was
a cause of committing faults the New Testament brings redemption to all men.
Today some people like to believe that they
can save themselves, at least to what tends to their life on earth. That by
thinking positively and believing to be in contact with the universe is all
that is needed to realise their enterprise. But there are missing a link to
this union of force, which is love and the manifestation of love. (1 cor.13) Why would someone want to invent what already
exists or go around the blessed requirements and renouncing believing in the
history with the recollection of miraculous happenings?
Realising that good has been universalised is
a great plus for mankind, and God’s
blessing, where education and charity improves. Jesus uses the term truth
surely for the better universal sense. Thousands of years of love past and where
is humanity today?
Hebrews 10:5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world,
he said:“Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; 6
with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased.7 Then I said,
‘Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll— I have come to do your will,
my God.’” 8 First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt
offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with
them”—though they were offered in accordance with the law. 9 Then
he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to
establish the second. 10 And by that will, we have been made holy
through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
1 John 4:19 We love because he first loved us. 20
Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever
does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God,
whom they have not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Anyone who
loves God must also love their brother and sister.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you
all!
