WHAT SPIRITUAL AND GOOD THINGS THAT
SIN STEALS IN THE LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN?
(ANU-ANONG MABUBUTI AT ESPIRITWAL NA BAGAY ANG NINANAKAW
NG KASALANAN SA BUHAY NG KRISTIYANO)
JEREMIAH 5:25 “Your iniquities have turned away
these [things], and your sins have withholden good [things] from you.”
JOHN 10:10 “The thief cometh not, but for to
steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and
that they might have [it] more abundantly.”
Panimula:
a. Ang
kasalanan ay pagsalansang at pagsuway sa kautusan ng Diyos.
1 JOHN 3:4 “Whosoever committeth sin
transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.”
b. Maliwanag
na nagbibigay ng babala si Jeremias patungkol sa masamang magagawa ng kasalanan
sa buhay ng Kristiyano na pigilan at nakawin ang mabubuting bagay sa buhay
natin.
c. Si Satanas ang magnanakaw ng mabuting espiritwal na bagay sa buhay ng
Kristiyano.
JOHN 10:10 “The thief cometh not, but for to
steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and
that they might have [it] more abundantly.”
Limang (5) mahahalagang bagay na ninanakaw ng kasalanan sa buhay ng
Kristiyano:
1. SIN STEALS OUR GOOD CONSCIENCE
(Ninanakaw ng kasalanan ang mabuting
konsensiya)
1TIMOTHY 1:5 “Now the end of the commandment is
charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith
unfeigned:”
a. Ang
bawat matuwid na Kristiyano ay may mabuting konsensiya at pinakikinggan ng
Diyos ang ating panalangin sa Kaniya dahil lumalapit tayo sa Diyos na may tapat
na puso.
HEBREWS 10:22-23 “Let us draw near with a true
heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil
conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
Heb 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering; (for
he [is] faithful that promised;)”
b. Ang
kasalanan ay malaking sagabal at hadlang upang hindi tayo dinggin ng Diyos sa
ating panalangin.
1PETER 3:12 “For the eyes of the Lord [are]
over the righteous, and his ears [are open] unto their prayers: but the face of
the Lord [is] against them that do evil.”
2. SIN STEALS OUR GOOD CHARACTER
(Ninanakaw ng kasalanan ang
ating magandang pag-uugali)
1CORINTHIANS 6:9-11 “Know ye not that the unrighteous
shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with
mankind,
1Cor 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
1Cor 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified,
but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our
God.”
a. Ang
ating magandang pag-uugali at patotoo ay katunayan na tayo’y may Kristo sa
ating buhay.
2CORINTHIANS 5:17 “Therefore if any man [be] in
Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things
are become new.”
b. Ang
kasalanan ay laging hadlang sa ating magandang patotoo sa harap ng tao.
MATTHEW 5:16 “Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven.”
3. SIN STEALS OUR GOOD CHEER IN THE LORD
(Ninanakaw ng kasalanan ang ating
kagalakan sa Panginoon)
PSALMS 51:12 “Restore unto me the joy of thy
salvation; and uphold me [with thy] free spirit.”
a. Nagagawa
ng kasalanan na alisin ang kagalakan sa buhay ni Haring David. Kaya ang
panalangin niya ay ibalik ang kagalakan ng pagliligtas.
b. Ang
buhay ng Kristiyano ay totoong masayang buhay kung lalayo tayo sa lahat ng uri
ng kasalanan.
PHILIPPIANS 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord alway: [and]
again I say, Rejoice.”
4. SIN STEALS OUR GOOD COMMUNION WITH GOD
(Ninanakaw ng kasalanan ang ating
magandang paglapit sa Diyos sa oras ng panalangin)
ISAIAH 59:1-2 “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not
shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
Isa 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your
sins have hid [his] face from you, that he will not hear.”
a. Ang
kasalanan ay totoong hadlang at malaking sagabal upang dinggin ng Diyos ang
ating mga panalangin sa Kanya.
b. Ang
Kanyang kamay ay umiigsi dahil sa kasalanan kaya hindi Niya maibigay ang mga
kahilingan natin sa Kanya.
5. SIN STEALS OUR CROWNS
(Ninanakaw ng kasalanan ang ating
mahahalagang korona)
REVELATION 3:11 “Behold, I come quickly: hold that
fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.”
a. Maraming
mga korona ang nakahanda sa bawat matapat at mapaglingkod na Kristiyano sa
Panginoon.
1. Ang korona ng kagalakan ay para sa matapat na tagapag-akay ng kaluluwa.
1 THESSALONIANS 2:19-20 “For what [is] our hope, or joy,
or crown of rejoicing? [Are] not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus
Christ at his coming?
1Thes 2:20 For ye are our glory and joy.”
2. Ang
koronong walang pagkasira ay para sa matapat na naglilingkod sa Panginoon.
1 CORINTHIANS 9:24-25 “Know ye not that they which run
in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
1Cor 9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all
things. Now they [do it] to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an
incorruptible.”
3. Ang
korona ng katwiran ay para sa mga tapat na nag-aantay sa pagbabalik ng
Panginoong Hesus.
2 TIMOTHY 4:7-8 “I have fought a good fight, I
have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith:
2Tim 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the
Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but
unto all them also that love his appearing.”
b. Malungkot
na katotohanan na ang kasalanan ay nagagawang nakawin ang lahat ng mga
mahalagang koronang ito.
Pangwakas:
Ang kasalanan
ay totoong malaking sagabal at hadlang upang magtagumpay tayo sa ating buhay
Kristiyano. Kaya ang hamon ng Diyos ay magsilayo tayo sa mga taong gumagawa ng
kasalanan.
2 CORINTHIANS 6:14-18 “Be ye not unequally yoked
together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with
unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
2Cor 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that
believeth with an infidel?
2Cor 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the
temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in
[them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Cor 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the
Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you,
2Cor 6:18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters,
saith the Lord Almighty.”
