Declared to Be the Son of God

Image
Is Jesus really God? Some say He became divine at his baptism while others suggest He became the Son of God at His resurrection. The deity of Jesus Christ has always been challenged, not by those who are saved, but by those who want to remain in their sin. In this sermon titled “Declared to Be the Son of God,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones argues that Jesus is and always was the unique Son of God from the beginning. In order to do the will of God the Father, His power and glory were hidden and yet He never became less than God. As the apostle Paul proclaimed in Romans 1:3–4, the resurrection of Jesus proves that He is God. concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord Romans 1:3-4 (ESV) Like a son of the king who is ceremonially announced as heir of the kingdom, Jesus is declared to be the sovereign over all creatio...

Áthelyezve a Kegyelem Uralmába

Image
Mit jelent az, hogy meghaltunk a bűnnek Krisztusban? Ez egy vitatott kifejezés, amelyet az egyháztörténelem során többféleképpen is értelmeztek. A Róma 6:1-3-ról szóló prédikációban, amelynek címe: "Áthelyezve a kegyelem uralmába", Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones azt mondja, hogy ennek a Szentírás helynek a megértése létfontosságú: Mit mondjunk hát? Megmaradjunk a vétekben, hogy a kegyelmet megsokasítsuk? Szó sem lehet róla. Vajon mi, akiket halálba vitt a vétek, élhetnénk-e még tovább ebben a vétekben? Hát nem értitek, hogy mi, akik a Krisztus Jézusba bemerítkeztünk, halálába merültünk be? Rm 6:1-3 Ez nem pusztán valami tudományos gyakorlatként fontos, hanem a keresztény élet szempontjából is. Azt mondja, hogy a bűnnek való meghalás azt jelenti, hogy Isten a keresztény embert Krisztusban megigazultnak és új embernek nyilvánította. Ez Isten kegyelmének és teljes megbocsátásának isteni kinyilvánítása mindazok számára, akik hisznek Jézus Krisztusban. Dr. Martin ...

Transferred to The Reign of Grace

Image
What does it mean to have died to sin in Christ? This is a debated phrase that has had a number of interpretations throughout church history. In this sermon on Romans 6:12 titled “Transferred to the Reign of Grace,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones says that understanding this Scripture is vital: What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Rm 6:1-2 This is important not merely as an academic exercise, but for the Christian life. He says that to have died to sin means that God has declared the Christian justified in Christ and a new person. It is the divine pronouncement of God’s favor and total forgiveness for all who believe in Jesus Christ. The emphasis, says Dr. Martin Lloyd-Jones, is always on what God has done for His people. This is why Paul expects the charge that he is encouraging sin so that grace might abound; he anticipates that this view of grace could be misunderstood. This serm...

From Guilt to the Throne

Image
Guilt or Throne? spiritual, mental hygiene, mutual need, purification, confidence, etc. This article is part of the "Vitalize" pack Dear saints and beloved! I recently visited a church which has a beautiful family life but suffers from a typical 21 century sickness. The guilt. Interestingly, leaders have told me that members are not as eager to come and get their lives back on track when they commit sins. They simply do not confess them openly. Since it is pastoral responsibility first - I really don't understand, why... The place we came from I believe that guilt is one of the most serious attacks on the humankind. People, nations can do "amazing" things to get rid of guilt. They walk thousands of miles, they squeeze themselves, they oppress themselves and unfortunately they oppress others just to see their own lives as superior and better. In fact, we see whole networks promising "grace" without any chanc...

Prepare the way of the Lord

Image
"a voice crying in the wilderness" What does it mean? "John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” This is the one of whom the prophet Isaiah spoke when he said, “The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.’ ” Now John wore clothing of camel’s hair with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. Then the people of Jerusalem and all Judea were going out to him, and all the region along the Jordan, and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins." Before that coming .. {John} prepares us for the coming of Jesus. Before that coming, there are many pioneers/heralds: - Many times {often times} suffering comes before him and prepares the way for the coming of Jesus, on the way, as the plough-sower ploughs the field before he sows the earth. - The ground of o...

A mennyei életünk az örömüzenethez méltó legyen

Image
Papság, életstílus és karakter "hogy mennyei polgárságban való forgolódásotok az Üzenethez méltó legyen" Krisztus ... tartozott mindenben hasonlóvá válni a testvérekhez, hogy könyörülő és Isten felé végzett szolgálatban hűséges főpap lehessen, hogy így engesztelést szerezzen a nép vétkeiért. Amennyiben ugyanis Őt magát is megkísértették szenvedésekkel, képes azokon segíteni, akik kísértést szenvednek. Heb 2:17 a Felkent sem maga adta magának a dicsőséget, hogy főpap legyen, hanem az adta, aki ezt mondta neki: „Fiam vagy te. Én ma nemzettelek téged.”; Ahogy máshol mondja, “ Melkisédek rendje szerint pap vagy te örökre”. Heb 5:5 aki hústestben töltött napjaiban erős kiáltásokkal és könnyek között könyörgéseket és esedezéseket küldött ahhoz, akinek hatalma volt arra, hogy Őt a halálból kimentse, továbbá lelkiismeretességéért meghallgatást talált, és noha Fiú volt, abból, amit szenvedett, tanulta meg az engedelmességet. Heb 5:7 ...választott ne...

A priestly manner, Christian character– worthy of the gospel of Christ

Image
Manner & Character worthy of the gospel of Christ ... he had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in the service of God, to make a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being tested. Heb 2:17 Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a High Priest, but was appointed by the one who said to him, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”; as he says also in another place, “You are a Priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek ”. Heb 5:5 In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. Heb 5:7 ...you are a chosen race, a Royal Priesthood, a holy nati...
