(Paano natin malalaman
kung ang mundo ay bulag pa rin espirituwal sa harap ng Diyos?)
2CORINTHIANS 4:4 “In whom the god of this world hath
blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious
gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”
LUKE 6:39 “And
he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both
fall into the ditch?”
Panimula:
a. Maliwanag na sinasabi sa Salita ng Diyos na ang sanlibutang
ito ay walang Kristo, walang pangako ng Diyos, walang pag-asa at walang Diyos.
EPHESIANS 2:12 “That at that time ye
were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and
strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the
world:”
b. Totoong bulag espiritwal ang sanlibutang ito at
patuloy sa buhay na naliligaw at mapapahamak sa walang hanggang kahatulan sa
lugar ng impiyerno.
REVELATION 21:8 “But the
fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers,
and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake
which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”
Mga katunayan na ang sanlibutang ito ay totoong
bulag pa rin espiritwal:
1.
BECAUSE THE WORLD IS STILL LOST BEFORE GOD
(Sapagkat ang
mundo ay makasalanan pa rin sa harap ng Diyos)
LUKE 19:10 “For the Son of man is
come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
a.
Si Hesus ay bumaba sa lupa upang hanapin
at iligtas ang nawawala at naliligaw espiritwal.
b.
Ang kapwa bulag sa sanlibutang ito ay
hindi masusumpungan ang daan ng buhay na walang hanggan sapagkat sila ay
parehong bulag.
LUKE 6:39 “And
he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both
fall into the ditch?”
2. BECAUSE THE WORLD STILL LACKS THE SPIRITUAL
CAPABILITY TO LIVE WHAT IS RIGHT BEFORE GOD
(Sapagkat ang mundo ay
kulang pa rin sa espirituwal na kakayahan upang mabuhay kung ano ang tama sa
harap ng Diyos)
EPHESIANS 2:1-3 “And you [hath he
quickened], who were dead in trespasses and sins;
Eph 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.”
Eph 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.”
a.
Ang bawat makasalanan ay patay
espiritwal sabi ng Bibliya kaya patuloy sila sa paggawa ng kasalanan.
b.
Tinawag ng Diyos ang mga makasalanan na
mga anak ng kagalitan at anak ng pagsuway.
3.
BECAUSE THE WORLD STILL LOVES THE THINGS OF THE WORLD
(Dahil mahal pa rin ng
mundo ang mga bagay ng mundo)
MARK 8:36 “For
what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own
soul?”
a.
Ang mayamang ito ay isang halimbawa ng
taong pinahalagahan ang mga bagay sa sanlibutan.
LUKE 12:19-20 “And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou
hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be
merry.
Lk 12:20 But God said unto him, [Thou] fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?”
Lk 12:20 But God said unto him, [Thou] fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?”
b.
Mas mahirap sa mayaman ang piliin ang
magkaroon ng buhay na walang hanggan at iwanan ang kanyang kayamanan.
LUKE 18:18-23 “And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to
inherit eternal life?
Lk 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none [is] good, save one, [that is], God.
Lk 18:20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
Lk 18:21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
Lk 18:22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
Lk 18:23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.”
Lk 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none [is] good, save one, [that is], God.
Lk 18:20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
Lk 18:21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
Lk 18:22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
Lk 18:23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.”
4. BECAUSE THE WORLD IS STILL WORKING FOR HOPE IN THEIR OWN WAY OF SALVATION
(Sapagkat ang mundo ay nagtatrabaho pa rin
para sa pag-asa sa kanilang sariling paraan ng kaligtasan.)
MATTHEW
7:13-14 “Enter
ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Mt 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
Mt 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
a.
Ang kanilang paraan ay sa pamamagitan
ng kanilang katuwiran at hindi sa katuwiran at paraan ng Diyos.
ROMANS 10:2-3 “For I bear them record that they have a
zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
Rom 10:3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.”
Rom 10:3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.”
b.
Ang kanilang paraan ay sa pagiging masipag
sa paglilingkod sa kanilang relihiyon.
MATTHEW 7:21-23 “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord,
Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my
Father which is in heaven.
Mt 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mt 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
Mt 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mt 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
Pangwakas:
Ito ang mga palatandaan na ang mga
taga-sanlibutan ay hiwalay pa kay Kristo, walang pangako, walang pag-asa at
walang Diyos sa sanlibutan.
EPHESIANS 2:12 “That at that time ye were without
Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the
covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:”
Pagpalain kayong lahat ng Diyos.
