THE BEST WAY TO PREACH

   Preach the gospel of the Kingdom is a commandment (Mt.28.18-20). But what is the best way to do this? Peter wrote: "You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light" (1-P.2.9). Here we are invited to preach as a community example. The same Master said: "You are the light of the world; a city set on a hill can not be hid. Or light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all who are at home. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. "(Mt.5.14-16).
Since the Kingdom of God is not only in words, the rule should be: "If you do not the works of my Father, believe me not. But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I in the Father. "(Jn. 10.37-38).

   Today many Christians called hidden or manifest their desire to live according to the ways of this world, take some other biblical quote to justify their carnal tendencies.

   One such quotations is: "I have become weak to the weak, to win the weak; all I have done everything so that all means save some. And this I do for the gospel, that I may share it. "(1-Co.9.22-23). But these were private attitudes that took Paul to specific cases, and was not a general position. Besides, he never became a sinner to win sinners, but ... "to those who are without law, as without law".

   This same apostle, who used these strategies evangelism, in specific cases, was the same as that transmitted the message of the Master key to the realization of the divine liberation project, one of whose foundation is unity, not imaginary or mystical, but real , of God. Here it could apply the saying: "Together but not scrambled."

   Together, because the Messiah himself said: "I pray that out of the world, but to keep them from evil. They are not of the world, as I am not of the world ... As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. (Jn.17.15-16,18), and "but not mixed" because the Messiah himself said through the apostle Paul: "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers" He concludes: "So, beloved, since these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. " (2-Co.6.14-18; 7.1).

   If we do not unite "unequally yoked" with unbelievers, ie, have commitments association with them, then, with whom should we have? Obviously with the same members of the household of faith.

   A Christian congregation may say that living under the sovereignty of the divine government or is participant of the Kingdom of God (in its current stage of development), only if their parishioners are integrated and organized to carry out the activities that human life requires.

WHEN WE BE SAVED?

   Religious tradition has taught us that we must put all emphasis on the need to be saved from eternal damnation; and with terrorism or without the we are led to believe that only after physical death will effect the redemptive work of the Messiah, and that while we do not see that our death is near, we can rid ourselves in pleasures, or resign ourselves to adversity, so that at or near it, we can buy, by faith (or superstition?), a passport to heaven, either with offerings and tithes, or failing that, with body floggings.

   The primary aspect of the divine plan release is forgiveness of sins for believers. This is something that only God can do "For by grace you have been saved through faith.; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; not by works, so that no one can boast. "(Ef.2.8).

   But these believers is supplied with the Holy Spirit, that ... "make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you what is pleasing before him through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. "(He.13.21)" Or think that the Scripture says in vain: The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously "(Stg.4.5)

   He wants freedom from disease, poverty, injustice, tragedies ... So Christian salvation is a huge potential to develop up to us not only for our future, but this welfare.

   "All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." (2-Ti.3.16 -17), "Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which can save your souls." (Jas. 1:21).


This is therefore another aspect of Christian salvation for those who are participating in the divine nature (2-P.1.4): That with the presence and help of the Holy Spirit we can organize ourselves, as the same Body of Christ, to channel and to carry out well the flow of love and liberation that our Savior has for its own people.

THE PILGRIMS OF JESUS CHRIST

   I saw the monument of the Savior of the world, representing a pitiable condition. I also noticed that behind him and walked laboriously dragged a long procession of wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Some of them had marks of flagellation, others whispered litanies, and all carrying relics or talismans.

   When each of these pilgrims passed through the top of Mount Grace them was applied by a radiant angel of light several drops of "Colirio of Truth" so that in fixing their eyes on the horizon could see the Kingdom of God and in the midst of the King alive, erect and triumphant Jesus, inviting suffering humanity to be part of their holy nation, or community of believers living under the regime of his Spirit and coverage of his government , in order to have not only permanent but abundant, fair and peaceful lives.


   When experiencing this wonderful change in their consciences looked surprised back, quickly discovering, thanks to the virtues of eyedrops Truth that the servants of the prince of this world that fed them, including covertly in food that supplied them, so harmful substances as ignorance, deceit and collusion. "But now, they said, henceforth we can set us on the path of truth in the search and permanent conquest of the glorious freedom of the children of God, working with our Savior in building his Kingdom. "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).

PERFECT SACRIFICE

   Our Savior was subjected to terrible torture and humiliating without being the slightest right to hate or curse his tormentors. I did had demerited his work, as the Eternal Father needed to reconcile fallen mankind into sin, the sacrifice of a "lamb without blemish and without spot" (1-P.1.9).

   This moving event showed how great the love of Heavenly Father, by allowing his own son was tortured that way. This martyrdom was the key in the opening of the New Covenant between God and mankind, the covenant which the Messiah himself became mediator.

   And as he asked forgiveness for his executioners, so it does for those who believe in his word, requiring them repentance and conversion. Repentance for those who recognize before God as guilty, weak and needy, and conversion of these roles in participants in their plan to liberate human beings of good will of injustice and own wickedness of those without His guidance, care live and help.

   Partaker of this sublime release plan, called Kingdom of God implies allowing the Spirit of God legislate in our lives, so that through us, the promises and desires of our Savior are happy fulfillment. (2-Co.1.20).

   Examples of these yearnings are: "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so on earth "(Mt.6.10)." I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us; so that the world may believe that you sent me. "(Jn.17.20-21) ...

   That is why the apostle Paul stresses: "You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, to proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light" (1-P.2.9) and the same God demands: "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers; for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has light with darkness?

    And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God and idols? For ye are the temple of the living God, as God said, dwell and walk among them, and be their God, and they shall be my people. Therefore, Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean; And I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.


   Keep in mind that no real integration can not set a nation, and that as a king without a kingdom no sense, neither does a kingdom without a nation. In other words, the true people of God is that which is organized as a body to which all members can give and receive the blessings derived from living under the paternal heavenly government, headed by our blessed King Savior, Jesus Christ.

PROSPERITY FOR ALL

   The Messiah did not come to promote the creation of parasitic caste in society, in the context of an excessive and cruel capitalism, where small minorities live like princes at the expense of the ignorant and suffering masses.

   Within the people of God, while recognizing that "the laborer is worthy of his hire," and that should not be put "muzzle the ox that treads" (1-Ti.5.18), we must focus our attention and interest on the principle of socio-economic equality, established for the people of God in the New Covenant:

 "Because I do not say this so that others may be eased and you burdened, but that at this time, with equality your abundance may be a shortage of them, so that their abundance may be a supply for your want: that there is equality, as it is written. "(2-Co.8.13-15)" he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack ... ought not to lay the children for parents, but the parents for the children. "(2-Co.12.14).

     What arises here is the redistribution of economic resources for the welfare and prosperity of the whole community of Christian believers as a whole, and not only a few take the administration of divine grace simply as a worldly profession with unmovable charges plenipotentiaries with which to plunder to the weakest of the sheep in exchange for only advice and encouraging phrases.


To the superstitious and ignorant masses you may be deceived by ruses disguised godly devotion but increasingly it can do with those who are made aware of the "pearl of great price" (Kingdom of God "). That is, those who realize that, at present, the sovereignty of the divine government, headed by the anointed King Jesus is the "newness of the Spirit" (Ro.7.6) to be legislas in individual lives and community of believers so that they can, truly integrated, capture the love of Christ through solidarity and mutual aid organized in a dignified and growing conquest of the glorious freedom of the children of God, even when our Savior established the Kingdom in all its fullness.
