One of the desires of our Savior by coming
to this world is that those who believe in the plan we achieve liberation
abundant, prosperous life. This is why Paul, who received orders from him,
said: "remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not
about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. Be diligent to
present yourself approved to God, a workman who does not need to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for
they will increase and more ungodliness "(2-Ti.2.14-16)
Here we are taught that it is more important
practical benefits that may result from the Christian doctrine that the
controversies they generate. Obviously it is in everyday human life in society
where the scopes of good behavior are more appreciated in value.
Convinces more facts than words. "For
the purpose of this instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience
and a sincere faith, which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain
jangling; Desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they
say, nor whereof they affirm "(1-Ti.1.5-7).
For this reason the Master who told
listeners: "Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me;
otherwise believe because of the works themselves. "(Jn.14.11). In the
same vein, he instructed his disciples: "You are the light of the world a
city set on a hill can not be hid. Not light a lamp and put it under a bushel,
but on a stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light
shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in
heaven "(Mt.5.14-16)
This, then, is the practical meaning of
liberation that our God offers us; "For all the promises of God in him
they are yea, and in him Amen, by us, to the glory of God." (2-Co.1.20).
In God's people no privileged classes, because equality under the rule of his government
is one of the great principles that account this holy nation. So says clearly:
"For I mean not that others might be relieved while you are hard pressed,
but that at this time, with equality your abundance may be a supply for their
want, that also their abundance may be a supply your need, that there may be
equality, as it is written: he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who
gathered little had no lack "(2-Co.8.13-15)..
The privilege does exist is that of being
useful to the community, ie, which also involved the Kingdom of God, which in
its current stage of development is in force between us. So Paul elsewhere
says, "is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm
constantly, that those who believe in God may be careful to maintain good
works. These things are good and profitable unto men. But avoid foolish
questions .... because they are unprofitable and vain "(Titus 3.8-9).
Peter confirms this: "And if you call
on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one's work,
conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your exile." (1-P.1.17).
"Behold, I am coming quickly, and my reward is with me, to give to every
one according to his work." (Ap.22.12).
