How Do U Work A Eye Clops

Chafer, CH Spurgeon

A sermon preached on Sunday morning September 23, 1855 by Charles Haddon Spurgeon

The New Park Street Chapel, Southwark, London.
"So the Gentiles also God has given repentance unto life Acts 11: 18.

One of the biggest obstacles has been that never exceed the Christian religion, was an inveterate prejudice that gripped the minds of his early followers. The Jewish believers, the twelve apostles, and those that Jesus Christ had called from the dispersed of Israel, were so attached to the idea that salvation was of the Jews, and that none but the disciples of Abraham, or at least circumcised, could be saved, they could not accept the idea that Jesus had come to be the Savior of all nations, and that he would be blessed all the peoples of the earth. With great difficulty they could accept that assumption, was so opposed to any Jewish education, we see them calling Peter to a council of Christians and asking, "Why have you entered the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them?" And Peter could not exonerate himself until he had referred the matter fully, and had stated that God appeared in a vision, saying, "What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common," and that the Lord commanded him to preach the Gospel to Cornelius and his household, and they were believers. After this the power of grace was so great that these Jews could not resist more, and despite all his previous education, immediately assumed the comprehensive principle of Christianity, "and glorified God, saying, So the Gentiles also God has given repentance unto life "God bless for now we are free from the constraints of Judaism, and because we are not under the constraints of a paganism which in turn has excluded Jews, but we live very near the blessed time approaches, when Jew and Gentile, slave or free, they will be one in Christ Jesus, our Head. I do not intend to dwell on this topic, but my theme today is: "repentance unto life. "I ask God to speak grace so that His word is like a sharp sword" that penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. "By" repentance unto life " I think we must understand that repentance is accompanied by spiritual life in the soul, and that ensures eternal life to anyone who possesses it. "Repentance unto life," he says, brings spiritual life, or, rather, is the first result from that life. Regrets that there are no signs of life, natural life, except because they are only effected by the power of conscience and the voice of nature speaks in men, but repentance spoken of here, is produced by the Author of life, and when it comes, it engenders such a life in the soul that those who were "dead in trespasses and sins," are revived together with Christ, those who had no spiritual receptivity, now "receive with meekness the engrafted word" those who slept in the very center of corruption, given the power to become children of God, and be near His throne. I think this is the "repentance unto life": that repentance that brings to life a dead spirit. I also said that this repentance secures eternal life for which no regrets hear about men who do not ensure the salvation of alma.Algunos preachers say that while men can repent and believe, may also fall away and perish. We do not intend to consume our time making a stop to explain his mistake now, we have often seen it before, and could have refuted all say in defense of their dogma. Consider an infinitely better repentance. Repentance of our text that is not repentance, but a "repentance unto life", a repentance which is a true sign of eternal salvation in Christ, a repentance that saves us in Jesus through this temporary state, and that when we have passed into eternity, gives us a blessing that can not be destroyed. "Repentance unto life" is the real salvation of the soul is the seed that contains all the essential elements of salvation, which protects us, and prepares us for them. On this day we pay attention, accompanied by prayer, repentance which is "life." First, I will spend a few minutes to the consideration of false repentance, secondly, I will consider the signs that characterize the true repentance, and then exalt divine charity, which is written: "So Gentiles also God has given repentance unto life "I. First, then, consider some false repentance. I'll start making this observation that under the sound frightened the Gospel is not "repentance." There are many people who when they hear a faithful gospel sermon, remain agitated and shaken. By a certain power that accompanies the Word, God testifies that Word is his own, and causes those who hear some involuntary shaking. I've seen a few people, "when the truths of Scripture have sounded from the pulpit, whose knees have trembled against each other, whose eyes have shed tears as if they were sources of water. I have witnessed the deep depression of spirit, when, as I have said some of them, were shaken to the point of not knowing how to bear the sound of the voice, it was like the terrible trumpet of Sinai, only its thundering destruction. Dear readers, you might be highly disturbed under the preaching of the Gospel, and yet could not have that "Repentance unto life." You might know what it is to be very serious and deeply affected when they attend the house of God, however, may be hardened sinners. Let me confirm this observation with an example: Paul appeared before Felix with his hands chained, and when he spoke about "justice, temperance, and the upcoming trial," it is written that "Felix trembled," and yet, by search delay, Felix is \u200b\u200bin perdition, in the midst of other people who have said "on your way this time, when you find an appropriate time I'll look." There are many people who can not attend the house of God without alarm; you know what is being scared at the thought that God will punish them, you may often have been induced to sincere emotion under the influence of the minister of God, but let me say that, nevertheless, may be discarded because they have not repented of their sins and have turned to God. Worse. It is quite possible that not only scare before the Word of God, but Agrippa could become friendly, and be "almost persuaded" to turn to Jesus Christ, and yet, have no repentance, could go further and come to desire the Gospel might say, "Oh, this Gospel is so good, I would like to receive. Ensures so happy here and so much joy in the hereafter, I wish I could call mine. "Oh, it's so good to hear this voice of God! But they could rest easy, and as a powerful text is predicated properly, could be said "I believe that is true," but must enter into the heart before they can repent. You can even fall on their knees in prayer and can be ordered with lips terrified that this is a blessing to your soul, and, after all, could I would not be a child of God. You could say as Agrippa said to Paul: "You almost persuade me to be Christian", but like Agrippa, could not pass beyond "Almost." Agrippa was "almost persuaded to be a Christian," but not "fully convinced." Now, how many of you have been "almost persuaded" and yet are not really on the way to eternal life. How often the conviction has led them to his knees and "almost" have repented, but have remained there, not really repent. "Look at that body? Died recently. Has not yet acquired the deadly pallor, its color resembles a still life. His hand is still warm, you might think he is alive, and almost seems to breathe. Everything is full: the worm barely touched it, the decay has barely presented; no foul odor. However, life has gone, there is no life there. The same applies to you: almost alive, almost have every external body that the Christian religion, but not alive. Could have a regret, but no sincere repentance. Oh, hypocrite! I warn you today that not only might feel fear until complacency by the Word of God, and yet, after all, have no "repentance unto life." Could still sink into the bottomless pit, and listen to say, "Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels." But also is still possible for men to progress even beyond that, and that positively humble themselves under the hand of God, but are complete strangers to repentance. His goodness is not like the morning cloud and early dew that fade, but after listening to the sermon, go home and do what they conceive to be the work of repentance, ie, give up some vices and follies, dress in sackcloth and very richly shed tears because of what they have done, complain to God, and yet for all that, his repentance is not repentance but passengers, and return again to his sins . Do you deny that there is such a penance? Let me tell you a case. A certain man named Ahab coveted the vineyard of his neighbor Naboth, who refused to sell at any price or make an exchange. Ahab consulted with his wife Jezebel, who hatched the plan to kill Naboth for the king to take ownership of the vineyard. After Naboth died, and Ahab had taken possession of the vineyard, the servant of the Lord met with Ahab and told him: "Have you killed and also taken possession?... Thus saith the Lord: In the same place licked dogs the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, your own blood.... I will bring evil upon thee, and take away thy posterity. " We read that Ahab was, and went softly; and the Lord said: "Because he has humbled himself before me, I bring the evil in his days." He had given a kind of mercy, but then we read in the next chapter, Ahab rebelled, and in a battle at Ramoth-Gilead, according to the servant of the Lord, was killed there, so that "the dogs licked his blood "just in the vineyard of Naboth. You too, I say, may humble before God for a while, and yet could still be slaves of their transgressions. You are afraid of damnation, but have no fear of sinning: they are afraid of hell, but not afraid of their iniquities; are afraid of being thrown into the well, but fear not harden their hearts against His commandments. Is not it true, O sinner, you have fear of hell? Not the state of your soul that troubles you, but hell. If hell were extinguished, your repentance be extinguished, if the terrors that await you were eliminated, peccaries more treacherously than before, and your heart be hardened, and would rebel against their sovereign. Do not be deceived, my brethren, at this point; Examine yourselves to see if they walk in faith, ask yourself if you have the "repentance unto life", as may humble for a while, and yet, it never repent before God. Many more advance Beyond this, and yet, fall short of grace. It might be possible confess your sins without repenting. You could approach God, and say you're a miserable, could enumerate a long list of your transgressions and sins they have committed, without a sense of horripilation of your guilt, without a spark of real hate your actions. You could confess and acknowledge your transgressions, however, feel no hatred of sin, and if not resist the sin, God's strength, if not abandon, this assumption would not regret but that looks gold paint decorative, it is not grace that really becomes the gold that supports the fire. Say could get him to confess his sins, and yet, have no regret. In addition, and then I touched the farthest thought that I give on this point. They could do some work worthy of repentance, and yet be unrepentant. Let me give a proof of this in a fact authenticated by inspiration. Judas betrayed his Lord, and after doing so, an overwhelming sense of enormous evil he had committed was upon him. His guilt buried all hope of repentance, and in the gloom of despair, but not in the pain of true remorse, confessed his sin to the chief priests, crying: "I have sinned by betraying blood innocent. "They said:" What is that to us? There you are! "Then he threw the pieces of silver in the temple, to show that he could not stand to bear the price of guilt and left them there. Went out, and was it safe?" No. "He left, and went and hanged himself. "And even then God's vengeance followed him: for when he hung fell from the height where he was suspended, and was destroyed, his soul was lost and perished. You can see what this man did. He sinned, confessed error, and returned the gold, but after that, he was a reprobate. Did not put us to shake it? can see how possible it is to be as about shadowing a Christian, that's wisdom, if only we were mortal, would be deceived. II. Now, when they had warned so many false lessons of repentance, I have the intention to occupy a short time by making some observations on true repentance, and the signs by which we discern whether we have that "repentance" which is "life" . First of all, let me correct a mistake or two that those who are coming to Jesus Christ committed frequently. One is that they often think they should experience deep, horrible and terrifying manifestations of the terrors of the law and hell before you can say that they repented. I have spoken with many people who have told me what I can only translate them in English to you, this morning, more or less this way: "I'm not sorry enough, I'm not sinful enough. I've been an offender as inexcusable and evil like many others, I almost wish I was, not because they love the sin, but since then have my deepest convictions of guilt, and I feel safer to have truly come to Jesus Christ. " Now would be a grave mistake to imagine that these terrible and horrible thoughts of an upcoming trial have something to do with the validity of "repentance." Often there are the gift of God nothing but innuendo the devil, and even where the law works and produces these thoughts should not be considered as constituting a part and parcel of "repentance." Do not fall into the essence of repentance. "Repentance" is a hatred of sin is turning away from sin and a determination, by God's strength, to quit. It is possible for a man to repent without a gruesome display of the terrors of the law might regret not having heard the sound of the trumpet of Sinai, without having heard more than a distant rumble of thunder. A man can repent entirely through the voice of mercy. God opened some hearts to faith, as in the case of Lydia. Others assaults with heavy hammer of the wrath to come, some open with the pick of grace, and others with the crowbar of law. There may be many ways of getting there, but the question is: have you got there? Are you there? It often happens that the Lord is not in the storm or the earthquake, but the "still small voice." There is another poor mistake many people make when thinking about salvation, and that is: you can not regret it enough, they imagine that if you repent to some extent, be saved. "Oh, sir!" Some of you will say, "I have enough contrition." Beloved, let me tell you no eminent degree of repentance necessary for salvation. You know that there are degrees of faith, and yet the least faith saves, there are also degrees of remorse, repentance and the minimum, if true, will save the soul. The Bible says: "He that believeth shall be saved," and when he says that includes the smallest degree of faith. Also when he says: "Repent and be converted that your sins may be blotted out," includes a man who has the lowest degree of real repentance. Repentance, moreover, is never perfect in any man in this mortal state. Never attain perfect faith that is entirely free from doubt, and never reach the repentance that is free from some hardness of heart. The most sincere penitent feel partially known unrepentant. Repentance is also a continuous act during a lifetime. Grow continuously. I believe that a Christian on his deathbed regret more bitterly than it ever did. Repentance is something to be done throughout life. Sin and repent, sin and repent, summarizes the life of a Christian. Repent and believe in Jesus, repent and believe in Jesus, forms the consummation of his happiness. They should not expect to be perfect in "repentance" before being saved. No Christian can be perfect. "Repentance" is a grace. Some people preach it as a condition of salvation. Condition of nonsense! There are no conditions for salvation. God gives salvation, and He only gives to whom He wills. He says: "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy." If, then, God has given you the least regret, and sincere repentance, praise him for it, and hoped that repentance grows deeper and deeper as you go forward. Then this observation has to be applied to all Christians. Christian men and women, you feel you do not have a sufficiently deep repentance. Feel they have a faith big enough. What have to do? Ask an increase of faith, and grow. The same is true repentance. Have you ever tried to reach a deep repentance? My friends, if you have failed in the attempt, trust in Jesus, and try every day to get a penitential spirit. Do not expect to have, I repeat, a perfect repentance at first have to be sincere contrition, and then, under the grace of God go from strength to strength, until in the end hate and hate the sin as a serpent or a viper, and then they are close, very close, the perfection of repentance. I have given these considerations, then, as the start of the topic. And now you wonder: what are the signs of true repentance in the eyes of God? First, I tell you, it is worth. No one ever repents of sin without feeling some kind of sadness at a time. It may be more or less intense, according to the way God calls them, and their previous way of life, but there must be some sadness. No matter when we arrive, but at some time or another must come, or would the repentance of a Christian. I once knew a man who professed that he had repented, and in truth his character had changed externally, but I never saw it had a real pain for sin, nor ever saw some signs of contrition in him when he professed believe in Jesus. I thought that this man was an ecstatic leap of grace, and came after he had just jumped the blame equally ecstatic again. He was not a lamb of God, not having been washed in contrition for all the people of God must be washed in contrition when converted from their sins. No one can come to Christ and know His forgiveness without feeling that sin is a hateful thing, it led to the death of Christ. You have dry eyes, your knees straight and their hearts hardened, how could they think they are saved? The gospel promises salvation only to those who really arrepienten.Sin But for not to hurt any of you, and make them feel something that is not my intention to make them feel, let me note that I do not mean to be real tears. Some men are so hard up they could not shed a tear. I met some people who have been able to sigh and moan, but the tears do not flow. Well, I say that although the tears often provide evidence of contrition, might have "repentance unto life" without them. What I want to understand is that there must be a real pain. If prayer is vocal, must be secret. To show remorse, however slight, must have a moan but not words, should be at least a sigh but no tears. This repentance must be one, I think, not only pain, but there must be something practical: it should be a practical repentance.
"not enough to say sorry, and repent, and then continue every day as ever walked." Many people are very distressed and very penitent for his past sins. Hear them speak. "Oh," they say, "I deeply regret having been a drunk one day, and I sincerely regret having fallen into this sin, I deeply regret having done that." Then they go straight home, and when it reaches one in the afternoon of Sunday was drinking again. And yet, those people says that he has repented. Do you believe them when they say they are sinners, but that does not love sin? You may not love him for a while, but could be sincere penitent, and then go and transgress again immediately, in the same way they did before? How can we believe them if they break again and again, and do not leave their sin? We know a tree by its fruit, and you who are penitent arrepentimiento.A produce works I have often seen as a very beautiful example that reflects the power of contrition, an anecdote provided by a pious minister. He had been preaching about repentance, and in the course of his sermon he spoke of sin of theft. On his way home, a worker approached him, and the Minister noted that he had something under his uniform worker. The minister said he did not go too far, but the man persisted. At last he said: "I bring a hoe on my arm that I stole on that farm, I heard him preach about the sin of theft, and I must go and put in place again." That was a sincere repentance, it motivated him to return and return the stolen item. It was the same with the islanders of the South Seas, of whom we read that stole the clothes and furniture of the missionaries, and everything else they could carry from their homes, but when they were converted savingly brought them all back. But many of you say you repent, and yet do not produce fruit, it is useless. People sincerely repent, say, of having committed a theft, or having kept a gambling house, but take care that all earnings are used in the best interest of his heart. True repentance will produce works worthy of repentance, will be a practical repentance. But we go further. You can tell if your repentance is practical by this test. Do you have time or not? Many of his regrets resemble the hectic flush of consumptive person, that is no sign of health. Many times I have seen a young man in a trance of newfound pity but little firm, and he believed he has been ready to repent of their sins. For a few hours, that person is deeply contrite before God, and for weeks waives his folly. Attend to the house of prayer, and converse in the manner of a child of God. But returning to their sins as the dog returns to its vomit. The unclean spirit has gone home, and took him seven other spirits more wicked than himself,... And the last state of that man is worse than the first. " How long did your contrition? "It lasted a few months, or you came and left suddenly? You said, "I will join the church will do this, that and the other, for God's sake. "Are your works lasting and do you think your repentance will last six months? continue for twelve months? will last until you're wrapped in your shroud? But In addition, I make one more question. Do you think that would repent of their sins, if there were not a punishment in front of you, or do not repent because they know they will be punished forever if they remain in their sins? Suppose we told them not hell exists at all, that if they wanted, they could swear, and if they wanted, they could live without God. Suppose that there were no reward for virtue, and there is no punishment for sin, what choose? Can you honestly say this morning: "I think, by the grace of God, I would choose the right though there were no reward for it, although nothing was gained by means of justice, and nothing was lost by sin ? Every sinner hate the sin when approaching the mouth of hell, every murderer hates his crime when he approached the gallows, I have never seen a child hates his fault as much as going to be punished for it. If they had no reason to fear the abyss, if they knew they could give their lives to sin, and could do so with impunity, even so, feel that they hated the sin, and could not and would not want to commit sin, but because of the weakness of the flesh? Do you still wish to holiness? Do you still want to live like Christ? If so,-if they could truthfully say that if so turn to God and hate his sin with eternal hatred, not fear because they have a "repentance" which is "life". III. Now comes the third header and the last, and is THE CHARITY OF GOD BLESSED granting men "repentance unto life." "Repentance," My dear friends, is the gift of God. It's one of those spiritual favors to ensure eternal life. It is a wonder of divine grace that not only provide the way of salvation, not only invites men to receive grace, but a positive right that men are willing to be saved. God punished His Son for our sins, and so provided salvation for all His lost children. Sends His minister, the minister calls on men to repent and believe, and strives to bring them to God. They do not want to hear the call, and despise the minister. But then another messenger is sent, a heavenly ambassador can not fail. Summons men to repent and turn to God. His thoughts are a little misguided, but after him, the Divine Spirit, argues with them, forget the kind of people they were, and will repent and return. Now what would we do if we had been treated as it was God? If we had prepared a dinner or a party, and we desired sent messengers to invite the guests to come, what would we do? Do you think that we would take the time to go visiting everywhere and make everyone come? And when he sat and said they can not eat, do open their mouths? If you still declare they can not eat, do we would eat? Oh, dear, I am inclined to think they would do that. If they had signed the invitations, and guests would not come to your party, do not say, "no party"? But what makes God? He says: "I will do a party and invite people, and if they come, my ministers will come and bring them personally. I will say to my servants go into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that can partake of the feast I have prepared. " Is not it a great act of divine mercy which effectively re-arranged? Not done through force, but uses a sweet spiritual persuasion. First are the most reluctant to be saved, "but," says God, "that's nothing, I have the power to make them turn to me and I will." The Holy Spirit to penetrate then the Word of God in the minds of His children a blessed so that they can not refuse to love Jesus more. I ask you to observe that it does not through any force against her will, but by a sweet spiritual influence voluntad.Él changing places not only a feast of good things before men, but leads them to come and participate in them, and constrains them to continue celebrating while leading to the permanent and eternal mansion. And to bring up, he tells everyone: "With eternal love I have loved you, so I drawn thee mercy. Now, I love you to me?" Oh, Lord, "" cry-"Your grace to bring here shows that you love us because we were reluctant to come. You said go, and we said we would not go, but you made us go. And now, Lord, we bless and we love you for that force. It was a divine urgency. "I was a captive who was struggling, but I was led to be willing.
" Oh, sovereign grace, submitting my heart I want to be led in triumph too, A willing captive to my Lord, To sing the honors of His Word. "Well, now, what say you? Some say," Sir, I have been trying to repent for a long time. In sorrow and affliction I have been praying and trying to believe, and doing everything I can. "I'll tell you something: I try a long time before being able to. That's not the way to achieve it. I heard the story of two men who were traveling. One of them said to another: "I do not know how to do, but it seems that you always remember your wife and family, and all they are doing at home, and gives the impression that you connect all the things you around with them, but I try to remind myself constantly, and yet I never can. " "No," replied the other, "that is precisely the reason why you can not, because you try. If you could connect with every little circumstance that we find easily remember them. In such and such time I think, now they are rising; and in such and such a time now in prayer in such and such a time are now having breakfast. In this way I have always before me. "I think the same happens with regard to" repent. "If a man says," I believe ", and tries by any means, mechanical, into repentance, it would be absurd and never make it. But the way to repent is, by the grace of God, believing, thinking and thinking about Jesus. If you saw the bloody side, the crown of thorns, tears of anguish if I had a vision of all what Christ suffered, I have no fear of stating that it was going to Him in repentance.'ll bet the reputation that I could have in spiritual things-that a man can not under the influence of the Holy Spirit of God, contemplate the cross of Christ without a broken heart. Otherwise, my heart would be different from everyone else. I have never known anyone who has thought, and looked at the cross, who has not found that the cross begat "repentance" and had faith. We look to Jesus if we are saved, and then say: "Sacrifice wonderfully, and that Jesus died to save sinners." If you want faith, you must remember that he gives it, if you want repentance, he gives it!, If you want eternal life, He gives liberally. He can force to feel your great sin, and take you to repent by the sight of the cross of Calvary, and the sound of more and deeper death shriek, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" That will engender "repentance" that you will mourn and say, "Ah, what my Savior bleed, and my Sovereign die for me?" Then beloved, if you would have "repentance," this is my best advice: look to Jesus. And may the blessed Giver of all "repentance to salvation" keep you from false regret that I have described, and give you that "repentance" that exists for life.
"Repent!, heavenly voice calls, and do not dare delay; The wretch that scorns the mandate, dies, and faces a fierce day.The sovereign eye of God, and nopasaran ignore the crimes of men, His messengers are released by doquierPara warn pecado.Los the world of sites covering all the earth Let the earth attend and theme; Listen, men of royal birth, and that his subjects heard as well! dóblense Together in His presence, and confess all his fault; Embrace the blessed Savior Now, do not minimize His gracia.Dobléguense before the trumpet sounds terrible, and the call to his court, for mercy knows the limit, and becomes vengeance there.

A tent on the roof, D. Wilkerson

Here in the Church of "Times Square" we have designated this year as one of prayer for revival. The "revival" does not conceptualize it as a great spiritual move where people come from afar to see something great. On the contrary, we are longing to have people prepared. Prepared in holiness to be an abode of the Lord's presence! We want a revival of the holy presence of the Lord, where things are as pleasing to God that he comes to meet every need. A place where His glory is revealed!
In the eighth chapter of Nehemiah are what I call "the five absolute evidence of revival. " Not be called revival or awakening unless each of the five evidence are present. Nehemiah is a book of revival. 42.360 is the story of Jews returning to Jerusalem from Babylonian exile, to holiness and true worship. The output of Babylon is a type of the output of the believers in dead churches, warm and worldly to go with a holy remnant to Zion, to return to the old paths and go forward with a people and shepherds to walk in truth .
This holy remnant rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and worked in unity to remove the garbage and filth that had been contaminated to Jerusalem. They rebuilt the crumbling walls and raised doors. That's what we're doing in the church "Times Square" by removing the accumulated trash, debris of false doctrine, materialism, sin and warmth in the pulpit and the pews. We are rebuilding the walls had collapsed. Hundreds of people of God have been looted and destroyed by satanic forces, homes and marriages have been working together to raise the walls and doors to keep out the enemy. God has gathered a remnant among all those who have escaped from Babylon and are ready to take the five major steps for the restoration and revival.
THE FIRST EVIDENCE OF REVIVAL is a fervent desire to fight AND OBEY THE WORD OF GOD.
"And all the people gathered as one man in the square in front of the water gate, and said unto Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women and all they could understand, the first day of the seventh month.
And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from early morning until noon, in the presence of men and women and all those who could understand, and the ears of all the people were attentive the book of the law. And the scribe
Ezra stood upon a pulpit of wood that had been done to it, and beside him stood Mattathias, Sema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah and Maaseiah to his right hand and his left hand, Pedaiah, Misael, Malkijah Hashum, Hashbadana, Zachary and Mesulam.
opened And Ezra the book in the eyes of all people, he was above all the people, and when he opened it, all the people stood up "(Nehemiah 8:1-5).
The cry of their hearts was, "Bring us the true word of the Lord!" Ezra stood on a wooden pulpit and read the word of God for six hours while the crowd was attentive, learning that the cause of his suffering was his own stubbornness and rebellion. The surest evidence of a revival in a soul, a church or a city is a great hunger for the Word of God. Misguided Christians do not want that fun. Preachers do not preach much neglect the word of God, on the contrary, they give short little sermon. They do not preach the law, because it produces conviction and shaking the church! Makes conforming squirm!
Where the Holy Spirit is working, people in the pews are crying for the Word. I receive hundreds of letters from needy saints who cry: "We are hungry. We did not hear the true Word. Receive the dead letter without the unction, "Smoothing Soap!". Where God is at work there are Bibles everywhere. There is an expectation of preaching and teaching with a real reverence for the Word, the Word is loved and honored.
is very sad that in many charismatic churches preaching is rejected. They can not wait until you finish, continue to praise and worship. Everything is music, entertainment and special songs that you like them!
When the Holy Spirit is no more need of a star evangelist or a teacher at the center stage, but the word being hailed. The cry will be: "Lord, I want it everything good, the bad, the commandments, promises, the whole counsel of God. "

SECOND REVIVAL IS EVIDENCE OF REPENTANCE WITH A BROKEN HEART.
"Ezra blessed the Lord the great God. And all the people answered, Amen! Amen! Raising their hands and they bowed and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
The Levites Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Sebatai, Hodiah Maacías, Kelita, Azariah Jozabeth, Hanan and Pelaia, taught the people the law, and the people were in place.
they read in the book of the law of God distinctly and gave the sense, them to understand the reading.
And Nehemiah the governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, This day is holy unto the Lord our God, mourn not, nor weep for all the people wept when they heard the words of the law "(Nehemiah 8:6-9).
His first reaction to the word was with exaltation and joy, they cried: Amen! Amen! Raising his hands. David said: "Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord" (Ps. 134:2). But the word that immediately became prostrate. When the word of God leads us to bow this is true repentance. "They humiliated and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground. " "... For all the people wept when they heard the words of the law." They trembled at the word of God, took it seriously and repented!
When a revival of the Holy Spirit comes, Christians do not hold grudges, do not murmur, slander or criticize. They are trying to straighten out the church or pastors. Do not sit idly like a sack of potatoes in front of the TV! No! They are prostrate before God, crying, because the word has impressed their hearts. They are not judging or watching others. They are being convicted by the Word, not to meet God's standards.

THE THIRD SIGNAL IS AN AMAZING REVIVAL SPIRIT OF JOY AND CELEBRATION.
"Then they said, Go, eat fat, and drink sweet wine and send portions to which nothing is prepared: for this day is holy to our Lord, do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.
The Levites, then, were silenced all the people, saying: Be still, for the day is holy, and not sorrow.
And all the people went to eat and drink, to send portions, and great mirth, because they understood the words he had taught them "(Nehemiah 8:10-12). Wherever
love for the Word of God has been restored, and repentance has come and where there has been a conviction of sin, there will be a great wave of joy and celebration. But there is a kind of joy fake and false conclusion on the ground. Today is the celebration of self and of idolatry. The dance around the golden calf! We need much discernment to know the difference between the true joy of arrepentimineto and the false joy of the idolaters.
Moses and Joshua came down from the mountain to the clamor of the people shouting: "There is strong voice yells, screams or weak voice, the voice I hear singing ..." (Ex. 32:18). They were shouting, singing and dancing, but Moses knew from the beginning it was all meat. He knew they were a rebellious and stiff-necked, full of lust, fornication, nudity and sensuality. Idolatry was the cry!
Can you see the difference? If there is no preaching of the law to convict of sin, if there are no tears or heads bowed to the ground, if there is no love for disapproving word of God, if there is no repentance, then, no spiritual cry, no song holy! Be very city! You can be caught by the song of idolatry.
Why had so great joy and festive spirit of joy in this revival as recounted in Nehemiah? They had great joy. "... Because they understood the words he had taught them" (Nehemiah 8:12). In other words, they discerned and taken seriously: they obeyed!

THE FOURTH IS AN EVIDENCE OF REVIVAL TABERNACLE ON THE ROOF!
"The next day he met the heads of the families of all the people, priests and Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, to understand the words of the law.
They found written in the law which the LORD had commanded by Moses that the children of Israel dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month, and that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities and Jerusalem, saying, Come out to the mountain, and bring branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle, palm trees and thick trees to make booths, as written.
So he went out, the people, and brought in and made themselves booths, each on its roof, in their courtyards, in the courtyards of the house of God, in the plaza of the water gate, and the square Gate of Ephraim.
And all the congregation who returned from the captivity made booths, and under the booths: for since the days of Joshua son of Nun until that day had not done so the children of Israel. And there was great joy "(Nehemiah 8:13-17).
The word of the Lord was restored, and repentance and obedience were genuine. The joy of the Lord was his strength back, but something was missing: The tabernacles! There can be no real and lasting revival, and a fullness of God, until we build a tabernacle! This is truly a message recently.
leaders, priests and the Levites were gathered to Ezra to search the scriptures and see what God wanted them. They found something that the Lord had sent years ago, a perpetual injunction that had been abandoned since the days of Joshua. He was in Leviticus 23:40-43: "And you will take the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, leafy trees and willows of the brook, and ye shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days.
And ye shall feast unto the LORD seven days in the year will be a perpetual statute throughout your generations, in the seventh month you shall.
dwell in booths seven days, all natural of Israel dwell in booths, that your generations may know that I did dwell in booths for the children of Israel when out of the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God. "
For seven days the people of God would build a temporary shelter (Hebrew "sukkah") with a roof made of several branches. They were commanded to live in shelters for seven days.
The newspaper "New York Times" had an entire section devoted to building a sukkah. In New York City these are built on tiny balconies, small courtyards and roof terraces at the end of September and during the first week of October. Of the six hundred thirteen commandments Jews this is still one of the most important. Orthodox Jews practice it rigorously. Living in the cabin still means today that "we're just going through this world, but spending the night, so we should not be concerned with pleasures and vanities. " The sukkah is so holy for Jews, it's a sin to take even a sliver of it for use as a stick! Just a bad smell contaminate it. It says: "If you can not save the Sukkot (the Feast of Tabernacles), can not save any of the six hundred thirteen commandments of the" Torah "(the law)!
leaders in Jerusalem at the time of Nehemiah made a proclamation: "We will return to celebrate the feast of Sukkot! go to the hills and bring branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle and palm trees make her "sukkah" as written ". I enjoy must have filled the air, carrying children and families to build sukkahs branches! That picture should have been seen from the top: every flat roof in a small hut, in any vacant lot or on each square in the temple courtyard visitors camping. Even Ezra, Nehemiah and all the priests! For seven days no eating or sleeping at home, no one was sleeping at the inns. All these people lived in temporary huts!
These were not sad seven days of hard work, by contrast, there were seven days of jubilation and joy. "... And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days" (Lev. 23:40). "Seven days celebrate the Feast of the Lord thy God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because you shall bless the Lord thy God in all your produce, and all the work of your hands and you'll be truly happy" (Deut. 16:15). Today
preaches a lot about the Feast of Tabernacles, it is said that the Church is entering its harvest time, "a collection of corn and wine", a time of blessing and growth that we are in a time of great rejoicing and praise, a time of joy and glory in the Lord. What is missing in this message is the sukkah, the move to the cabin! All praise, worship, the joy and happiness should be under the tent, "the place that the Lord will choose."
What does all this mean for us today? What is about the sukkah with walking with Christ today?

the sukkah means that we are strangers here, CITIZENS OF ANOTHER CITY.
The last seven days on the roof, alluding to the seventy years of human life span. The sukkah was a reminder that his life was temporary. As the leaves are withered, they would see the deterioration of their lives, their health and strength. God wanted their hearts and minds were made in eternity. They should remember themselves and their children: "We're just camping here. We rejoice not only for passing all these blessings, but also our hope and joy are in town come down from heaven: Zion! ". In Nehemiah's day this was what God wanted them to understand: "They rebuilt the walls, gates set up, established homes and planted the gardens and vineyards. The Lord had been good but this is not a resting place. They seek a city whose builder and maker is God. "
David loved his city, Zion. He wrote great poems and songs about their beauty: "Beautiful, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion ... the city of the great King "(Ps. 48:2). David got rich and gave loads of gold and silver for the construction of the Temple. "Of the gold, silver, bronze and iron there has ..." (1 Chron. 22:16). However, David does this terrible statement: "... because I am a stranger to you, and a sojourner as all my fathers" (Ps. 39:12). This was said after Israel was established and flourished. "Upstart" means a resident alien, one that will only pass. The word "foreigner" in Hebrew comes from the root word meaning "retreat in fear, as a unknown location. " All our fathers in faith considered the world "a strange land." They were foreigners, citizens of another world.
"By faith Abraham, when called, obeyed to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance and left without knowing whither he went. By faith he sojourned in the land of promise as in a strange country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs of the same promise: For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose architect and builder is God "(Heb. 11:8 -10).
"died in faith, all these without hager received the promises, but having seen them afar, seen them and embraced them, and confessing that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For those who say, clearly suggest that parental looking for if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came, they certainly had time to return. They desire a better, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, because He has prepared a city "(Heb. 11:13-16). They wanted "a better city, that is, a heavenly ...." There is a better city than the U.S. or whatever your native land. Is the new Jerusalem, heaven with Christ.

GOD KNOWS THAT EASILY we are blinded with their blessings.
Why would God to the whole nation in small huts for seven days? Because He knows the terrible danger that your children are when they are blessed. He knows it can easily turn away and forget about him, becoming blind because of the ease and so comfortable. He knows how willing we are to indulge and be seduced by worldly things.
The Song of Moses was a prophecy predicting the expected apostasy of God's people, once they had succeeded. "But Jeshurun \u200b\u200b(the people of God) got fat, and kicked (became unmanageable). Fattening (I covered with grease), then he forsook God who made it, and lightly esteemed the Rock of their salvation " (Deut. 32:15). This is a message not only for the rich, but for us all. The more we are blessed, the more we tend to want to dig into this world, to build, buy and spend more. Everything we buy is like another rope that binds us to this world! The Lord wants our hearts are "in the cabin" in the sukkah. Every day, often every day, He wants us to remember the following: "I'm an alien! I'm just going to pass! I have no roots here! I'm a better city! Thank you Lord for all your blessings, but I rejoice because I am a citizen of Zion. " NADA
WE BELONG HERE ON EARTH!
All that God has given us is given! We are only custodians. Much has been written about the promised land. God promises to give Israel the land of Canaan, a land flowing with milk and honey, but God never gave them the scriptures, He just took them. "The land shall not be sold permanently, because it is mine, because you you are strangers and sojourners with me" (Lev. 25:23). They could only sell the rights to harvest, and even the poorest were returned their land in the jubilee year.
To God belongs all that we have. We keep saying: "Lord, I return this." But we've never really owned anything. "For mine is every beast of the forest, and thousands of animals in the hills ... and everything that moves in the field are mine ... the world is mine and the fullness thereof" (Psalm 50:10-12). The Lord is saying, "Go to the tent on the roof, examine your heart!" Are you a faithful steward of the Lord's property? In the light of eternity, in the light of the fragility of life, how much you spend on yourself, compared to how much for your work?
The major result of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is the delivery of everything on the altar of God, while we take our Eye of the things we possess. At Pentecost, said, "and the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and one soul: neither said any of their possessed nothing, but they had all things common" (Acts 4:32).

THE TABERNACLE IS A REMINDER FOR ALL ABSTAIN carnal desires.
"Beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul" (1 Pet. 2:11). It is almost impossible for anyone under age 50 think eternal values, because they assume they still have plenty of time ahead. When you get to the 60's or 70's nature teaches you how short life is! It is much easier to think of being a foreigner here! But God wants us all to dwell in the fullness of life, we rejoice and then we pay attention and ask ourselves: are worth our youth and carnal desires in the light of eternity?
Moses chose "to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin" (Heb. 11:25). Thus the Lord has taught us to go to the tabernacle, consider how short life is, suffer for a moment, and suffer for the joy set before us (see Heb. 12:2). "... For what is your life? A mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes "(James 4:14). Try telling that to the young people!
The tabernacle is a symbol of what the world away from us. Go there! Destroy the ambition! Mata pride! All targets have been set wrong by ambition are open to lust and sin of all kinds. People say, "What's the point?, I'll never make." Therefore, sin! You are listening to lying spirits. Recognize these voices for what they are: demonic.

FINAL EVIDENCE OF A REVIVAL IS THE ABSOLUTE SEPARATION OF THE WORLD. Without
life of repentance and separation from the world can not be a true revival. "And had departed the offspring of Israel from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins and the sins of their fathers" (Nehemiah 9:2). Wherever restoration is biblical, there is an increased awareness of the Lord's call to separate ourselves from all that is worldly and sensual.
I have observed over the years that separate Christians, consumed by Christ, and live in holiness is the most affected by the secular world. Pagans expect Christians to be separate and clean. They expect to be wholly "other" than themselves. In New York streets, crime infested with evil spirits everywhere, just a pure Christian, paragraph, full of Christ, can put the enemy to run. The lukewarm are scared and their own sins condemn them.
God is raising up a remnant of believers who want a revival, but only one in accordance with the believers in the image of Jesus Christ. And when he comes in all its fullness, most Christians do not recognize it, or if they do, they will reject. The remaining section will hear the sound of the trumpet and knows what God is saying.

Post and the New Era, Alberto Esteban

1. Preliminary considerations

In this brief commentary, we enter the interpretation of the mysteries and the explicit iconography Avatar, James Cameron film that broke box office at the end of 2009. However, this contribution will not be universally valid because the paradigm from which to dismantle the argument and its intentions in our reader requires the concurrence of at least three requirements (in addition to seeing the movie):

1.Profesar Christian faith, believing that the text of the Scriptures (the Bible) is the message given by God for salvation. 2.Conocer
existence, the beginning and the nature of conflict cosmic / universal which takes place between: a) the Kingdom of God, the Lamb and His Angels, and the sons of God (men and women born again redeeming grace alone), and b) the kingdom of darkness, formed by Satan and his principalities and powers of fallen angels. A fight in which the "prize" at stake are the souls of men who are being saved by Christ or Satan won by eternal damnation. 3.Comprender
mechanics of religious syncretism, condensation in the core philosophy of the New Age spiritualist, and the earthly institutions (Vatican, United Nations, Hollywood ...) devoted entirely to their wider media publicity philosophical, academic, social and political.

Chances are anyone who has to his credit three basic requirements, need not at all a document of this nature. A simple approach to the film that our study will be sufficient to draw their own conclusions. Nevertheless, we present this article with the desire to break with the rule of universal deceit of the American film industry (which has invaded the world with his magic, witchcraft, occultism, sexual perversion, violence and Satanism), proclaiming that there is only one God, creator of heaven and earth, manifested through His Son Jesus Christ, and announce to the world that those who do not benefit from his saving grace and have no where benefit to the future and universal view that God brings upon the inhabitants of Earth.


2. Introduction
first recall the Biblical story of Genesis (Gen. 3: 1-5) we find the dialogue between the serpent and the woman


Genesis 3:1-5 Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast
the field which the LORD God had made which said the
woman, Yea, hath God said Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden
?

And the woman answered the serpent:
the fruit of the trees in the garden we may eat;
but the fruit of the tree in the midst of the garden God said
shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die
.

the serpent said unto the woman, not die;
God knows that when you eat it,
will open your eyes, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil
.

In this story we should emphasize two important elements. The first is the statement that contradicts God, "not die", which has been widely Annotated by Walter J. Veith, whose reviews available at the end of our study for those who want further reading. The second is the statement: "God will be like ...", well-known argument as the basic and explicit theme of the New Era. With these two simple sentences have enough to build a whole body systemic and compact esoteric philosophies present in occult spirituality "Avatar."

Broadly speaking, the sentence "will be like God" unfolds in a derivation divine and cosmic evolution of man emphasizes dignity, transcendence and eternal permanence, in contrast to its true nature, a being sinful, miserable, full of rotten sore on your body as mortal concerns and urgent need of salvation. Fill the mind and heart of man with lying words about his "inner beauty", "self-generated power, transcendence and divinity" does not lead to the Cross of Christ. Miserable me, a sinner! is the precondition for the salvation of my soul.
But, if I am divine, and not miserable, do not need God because I am a god, and partake of the divine cosmic-universal. Esoteric doctrine latter leads to one of the greatest centers of deception in which humanity can fall: man is one with the cosmos. And such, is identified with him: the completeness of living beings and even inanimate beings, who are endowed with certain mystical spirituality form an indivisible unit in a cosmos that evolves to perfection according to different evolutionary stages along of millions and millions of years, without a termination or specific purpose, much less in what we call "trial of a personal God." The concept of God becomes and diluted, no longer speak of a God identifiable and separate from his creation to the caretaker, but the whole creation itself, each ciratura, every stone, every tiny speck of dust, is God.

The concept of cosmic evolution embodied in scientific theories of evolution, not just the legacy of Darwin, who only continued and systematized the seed planted by the serpent in Eden. The existence of a "primordial soup" of organic compounds (nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen ...) with ultraviolet radiation and through electrochemical processes give rise to chains of amino acids, their subsequent assimilation into unicellular organisms to multicellular devine later, and conquered over millions of years, other non-aquatic media ... The evolution of species based on accidental mutation, resulting in mammals, and hence humans forms a collection all academic and doctrinal ensuring the existence of God as reflected in the Bible, and of course totally destroy the human need to be formed by a creator. Instead, different developmental stages make up the ages of man, not only of man but of all those beings populate the universe, as in Pandora, the scene of the movie Avatar (the "Navi" are indigenous evolutionary state, although an advanced system interconnect, as we shall see).

other words, for New Age thinking, the interpretation of the beginnings and evolution of living beings throughout the cosmos no longer obeys the rules a dogmatic creationist and child (such as referring the Bible.) On the contrary, govern the rules of physics and biophysics, biological and inorganic chemistry, mathematics ... science in general, and hence the technology, one that can save the creatures of the threats and hostility of the environments in which they live (climate disasters, geophysical, astronomical, etc). This forms a
exalted form of neo-Gnosticism, which is just one of the biggest abominations of the twentieth century (though its roots in much earlier times.) So we have polarized the field of men's beliefs in two ways: the Gnostic material, scientific, Darwinian evolutionist, naturalist and atheist, on the one hand and the philosophical side spiritual, mystical, occult, syncretistic, cosmic / universal evolutionist, on the other. And both sides belong to one father, Satan, who is extremely busy in filling the minds and hearts of men with these things to keep them away as much as possible the saving power of God through Jesus Christ.

Following our initial argument, we had one extremely bad decision "will not die." It is easy to see that if the consciousness of beings requires a physical support (organic for most) and that consciousness "Will never die", the only possible derivation is reincarnation.


Is this another of the nuclei of deception, superstition and destruction propagated by the new era. Reincarnation is also a message of "Avatar", as we shall see later. Reincarnationist doctrine alone can lead one large volume, there are many ways to focus, and different beliefs about this phenomenon. But in its essence remains ... exactly in the sentence "does not die."

When men full access to the meaning of this thought eternicista, and even more, when treated as its own and exciting for their lives, actually received an unnecessary absolute hell (hell even less punishing for their sins), and a personal God who knows every area of \u200b\u200bhis thought, his emotion and his will, and judge their acts. There is no God of the Bible, not die. On the contrary, we feel the presence of the cosmic deity who is responsible for our consciousness to stay in a idyllic universe / platonic or other body, whatever. (Both forms are reflected in Avatar: the one with the scientific program, which joins "Eywa" saying ["is real, actually exists"], and the other with the main character, leaving the decrepit body of disability, to be reborn into an avatar perfectly embodied and organic). The

reported so far is a form of humanism philanthropic :,... indeed, it is a kind of anthropocentrism, which removes from God all valuable cargo, and delivers it to the man, bringing him to the rank of immortal deity, Jesus Christ and making a hoax again overshadowed by many other prophets, saviors and teachers (Buddha, Krishna, Confucius, Zoroaster, Mohammed ...). With this introduction, we start with the movie "Avatar", which is what concerns us here.
3. Guidance "New Age" film
1. What is Pandora and how it relates to New Era?

Pandora is the natural ecological environment where life takes the Navi, and the central space of the events of the film. This environment shares the characteristics of tribal peoples known mostly extinct on Earth. But the environment is completely covered with a supernatural aspect, a luminescent substance and spiritual, magical, exuberant and highly appealing to human curiosity, which combines the mystical and serene naturalism with multiple beings untameable ferocity hungry and aggressive in an endless struggle for survival. Highlights the natural fluorescence various plants, some of which are lit even when stepped on, and some species of animals. The arguments of the film relate to each tree Pandora has an average of 104 (ie 10,000) connections with the surrounding trees. As the estimated number of trees in Pandora about 1012 (1,000,000,000,000, ie one billion trees), that the number of connections, only between trees than Pandora, as the program scientist "Avatar" the number of interneuronal connections in the brain humano1 (intricate communication network of the central nervous system referred to as the basis of human consciousness in the academic of neurobiology, psychology, psychiatry, etc).

result is a global network that acquires consciousness and life itself, a network of interconnections in the Navi can upload and download data and experiences. In this simple concept in Pandora found already and New Age metaphysical principle of cosmic unity and evolution of every being with Mother Nature (Earth called Gaia), "a complex connection with the forest people, a network of energy flows through all living things "as a unit. Each step we take in our present description a term exploited by spiritualistic and occult philosophy of Satan as While our readers will be caught. This spirituality captivates the hearts of people, because in essence we are spiritual, and the features of Pandora is that they are not nonsense, but rather the Devil met the beautiful and perfect spiritual reality created by God, and he joined gods adultery, shaping it for inspiration in the literary and artistic productions of men.

This Pandora energy flow and interact are interconnected to the spirits of animals, plants, "very pure spirits (referred to as such in the film, seeds of the sacred tree that communicate messages to native Eywa) the Navi, etc. This intercom, along with the "natural balance of life" is protected by their deity, Eywa, who is presented in the film as the Great Mother Goddess as made up of all living things and all knowledge. As we know, there is no concept antitheist (also atheist, if you will) that pantheism, a concept that tries to explain that "everything is God."

As such deity, Eywa decide, of course, embodied the permanence of certain organic beings or her death (decision-making presented in the film as the "Eye of Eywa"). And of course, as that deity, Eywa same "Provide" (A clear allusion to "Jehovah Jireh", the Bible), a sentence that expresses the native to the avatar when in a helpless situation clearly.

It is true that in tribal societies of the Earth has worshiped the sun and moon, nature deities were created as seen in Avatar, have practiced ritual magic, divination and witchcraft, sorcery, voodoo, quackery , etc. One could say: "Avatar is more of the same." We do not deny. And the father of one and the other is the enemy of our souls. Will we take your brew? Is not it abominable?
1. Who are the Navi, and what the relationship established with its environment?

ships in particular, and people from other regions of Pandora, in general (also indigenous) are tribal land with a survival-oriented behavior and gregarious self. We assume that, as in the historical reality of our forest land, Pandora will also be important differences between them, although this typology, symbolism and customs reducible to a set of basic principles and common among them.

As we said before, the Navi establish what they call "bond" with the beings of the environment, according to the scientific interconnection allows loading program and download data to the source of life mother, or even possible to control the movement of the reptilian fliers with the thought (an organic form of telepathic contact.) It is worth saying that among the ingredients of the occult and Eastern philosophies inspiring some New Age practices are telekinetic, telepathic and viewers. And just like that, as a visionary, is presented in front of the Navi their leader and spiritual guide, the "Shaman", which is the one who guides the conduct of the tribe in accordance with the messages of divinity, and who, literally, "interpret the will of Eywa." Fruit of the

spiritual leadership, the people unite in one of the most dark, pagan and idolatrous Hollywood ever conceived, comparable to the rituals of the ancient Sumerian, Babylonian, Canaanite, etc mentioned in the Old Testament. Eywa present themselves, all with one accord and in physical contact, to invoke power and acclaim their mother goddess. In a first time (before the onset of human troops) come together, as we assume, to mourn, to implore help and show reverence to Eywa to all circumstances. On two other occasions, the ritual is more intense and has a very clear intention: to preserve the life of a person through a transfer of experiences, memories and personality another organism available to receive such attributes (a form of satanic doctrine reincarnationist, disconnected in this case the conception and development of the subject to reincarnate).

Eywa answers prayers of the protagonist and shows its power and divine aligning the behavior of the wild creatures of Pandora to the urgent need for defense against enemy attack. In this moving scene from the movie even the same viewer with 3D glasses if applicable, is aligned with the desire emotionally Eywa, unspeakably glad of his power and hoping that the infamous military ("people of heaven" they are called, which can give a lot to talk) perish from the way painlessly as possible. Avatar tune with the flesh of the spectator and pulls him his greatest desire for revenge. So presented the highest military with such a display of colonialism and cruelty to a world seemingly so beautiful and spiritual.

vessels are also the "tenants" of a loan that someday must be repaid, as the film's actual words. A native died and was deposited in a hole in the ground. No need to worry, his soul remains alive in the tree of souls, together with the ancestors of Pandora. We assume that if their behavior has been exemplary and famous, maybe I can continue manifesting locals as a "seed of the sacred tree" (very pure spirits). On the contrary, your body will rot in the ground and give life to millions of microscopic ciraturas and trees, entering back into the recirculation through the cosmic union of all beings and the flow of energy (hence the loan) that characterizes Pandora. These concepts are nothing new. Eastern philosophies, environmental platforms formed by secular activists, a number of esoteric religions, ... all of them completely away from the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the revelation of God to man, have seen repeatedly that humans are not the owners, but temporary beneficiaries or tenants of Mother Nature and its fruits and benefits. As the reader will know, this is one of the key elements of New Age spirituality.







1.A

conclusion of God's Word urges us not to participate in the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather to rebuke him. This is the spirit that is made this small study. We have left behind, without addressing, concepts that are important and worthy of analysis as immoral organic combinatorial DNA between human and indigenous species for the avatar, or imperialist impulse of appropriation natural resources of the people by means of force. But we are satisfied to have reflected on the surface of the esoteric nature of the film. We hold that the Kingdom of God, and especially the redemptive work of Jesus Christ are experiencing an extraordinary and explicit attack by the evil powers that operate with much subtlety, so that even the same followers of Christ rejoice in demonstrations spirituality, esotericism and idolatry that invade our screens. We recognize that "goes smooth and easy as the wine," and that such doctrines captivate millions of people in a cruel and wicked world, where materialism reigns, capitalism, globalization, exploitation, violence, extortion and a long list of evils, and where souls are thirsting for the Spirit of God without knowing it. To these must be delivering the message that the prophets of the Old Testament, Jesus Christ and his apostles were by God as part of the progressive revelation of the plan of salvation.

Notes:
1 This argument should not be terminated. It is estimated that the adult human brain there are about 1014 synaptic connections. In Pandora are about a billion trees (European notation), and each of them has, according to the film, about 10,000 connections with others.

■ "Avatar" and New Age
By Alberto Esteban

Brent Corrigan Jerking School

Gabás Martyn Lloyd-Jones


BRIEF BIOGRAPHY
Wales is a unique place in the world. Even being part of Britain, the Welsh are quick to make clear that they are not English, and emphasize speaking in their own language rather than speak in English.
Wales has a very special spiritual history, it has seen great revivals, often followed by profound spiritual depression.
Welsh History records some remarkable as Christmas Evans, Daniel Rowland, William Williams, Howell Harris, Evan Roberts ... and David Martyn Lloyd-Jones, our biography. Getting Started

David Martyn Lloyd-Jones was born on December 20, 1899, when he concluded the nineteenth century. God had a plan for this son of Henry and Magdalene Lloyd-Jones, to bring back the fires of revival that Evans, Roberts and others had experienced before. Some have said that Charles Spurgeon was the last Puritan, but time would show that they should have expected to hear the "Doctor" before making such a claim. The life of a young
Martyn was fairly quiet until January 1910 when he was 11. Until then his father had been a very successful businessman in his hometown of Llangeitho. But this year something happened that changed many things.
In the dark of night there was a fire that nearly cost the lives of Martyn and his brothers, who slept on the floor. Although the family was saved, most of the family property was lost. Henry never fully recovered from the financial setback. Almost by accident, Martyn soon found out how truly desperate the situation had become.
During his early school years, he carried this burden in his heart. As a result, he became very serious for his age, and very determined to succeed in their education and life. "It was as if he was away much of what is common to youth, and that once made him say: 'I never had an adolescence,'" said Ian Murray. Although warm-hearted, Lloyd-Jones always carry with him a reputation for austerity and severity.
Lloyd-Jones was raised in the Welsh Calvinistic Methodism. The term "Calvinist Methodism" may seem contradictory, because Methodists are Arminian - which emphasize the free will of man - and Calvinists emphasize God's sovereignty over salvation. Somehow, the Welsh Calvinistic Methodism sought the best of both positions.
Between 1914 and 1916, Lloyd-Jones went to a London primary school, then studied medicine. He made his practice at the prestigious St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and was brilliantly successful. Passed their exams so early he had to wait to graduate.
In 1921 he began working as an assistant principal of Sir Thomas Horder, one of the best doctors in those days.
At the age of 26 years, Martyn received her membership diploma of the Medical School and had a brilliant and lucrative career ahead of him. However, God had plans for it to be a physician of souls rather than bodies.
conversion and call to ministry
Gradually, through reading, his mind was drawn to the gospel of Christ. He had no dramatic crisis of conversion, but reached a point where fully committed to the gospel.
After that, when he sat in the office, listening to the symptoms of his patients, he realized that what many of them needed was not ordinary medicine, but the gospel he had discovered for himself. He could deal with the symptoms, but the worry, tension, obsessions, could only be treated by the power of conversion. He felt increasingly that the best way to use his life and talents was to preach the gospel. Martyn
soon became involved in the church of the Charing Cross Chapel. Among other things, he met Bethan Philips. Bethan attended there with his parents and two brothers. His father was a well-known ophthalmologist and Bethan was nearing graduation as a doctor at University College Hospital.
After several years of dating, Martyn and Bethan were married in 1927. After their honeymoon in Torquay, moved into their first home, a small parish house Sansfield Church in Aberavon, Wales, determined to serve in what they feel called.
The surprising move of the young specialist and his wife could not fail to attract attention, and the press came to them. Mrs. Lloyd-Jones responded to a reporter at his door with the phrase: 'No comment' and the next day was shocked to read the headline: "'My husband is a wonderful man," says Ms. Lloyd-Jones '. This couple had two daughters, Elizabeth and Hannah
Local doctors were not very happy with the newcomer. Thought he had come to show their superiority and take away their patients.
Against expectations, Martyn could not completely abandon his medical career. In south Wales, brilliant diagnostic skill was scarce. After a few years during which he was deliberately ignored by local doctors was called to a difficult case. He knew exactly the nature of the obscure illness that the patient appears to recover, and then die. Confirmed its forecast accurately, and the general practitioner said: 'I kneel to ask forgiveness for what I said about you. " After that it was difficult to handle medical calls.
A writer described the neighborhood Sansfield "contains at least 5,000 men, women and children living in most of the squalor and overcrowding." Or as someone said, was a place for "the player, the prostitute and the tax collector."
Lloyd-Jones was not a minister fresh from a liberal theological school, that accommodated his message to contemporary opinion and prejudices of his congregation. The words of his first inspired sermon from 2 Timothy 1:7 illustrate what his convictions: "Our ... churches are crowded with people, almost all of which take the Lord's Supper without hesitation, but ... Do you imagine for a moment that all these people believe that Christ died for them? Well then, you say, why are members of the church, why they pretend to believe? The answer is that they are afraid of being honest with themselves ... I feel much more shame for all eternity for those occasions when I said I believed in Christ when in fact they were not ...».
That was too much for some who left the congregation. But instead, slowly at first, was growing the number of those who were captivated by the truth, the working class of South Wales. The message brought them and the power of the Holy Spirit converted them. There were no dramatic appeals, only a young minister with a clear message of God's justice and love, which brought a hard case after another to repentance and conversion.
The church grew with the steady stream of conversions. Christians were notorious drinkers glorious, and workers and women came to the Bible classes he and his wife headed.
For those who are accustomed to biblical preaching can be difficult to understand the shock that caused this young preacher. First, he was not theologically trained (at least not recognized forms). Instead of preaching from a lectionary or otherwise pre-prepared, Lloyd-Jones was primarily a preacher of the Bible. From the beginning, he sought to give a verse by verse understanding of the Word of God. Perhaps this reflected his own personal life that included reading the entire Bible every year. Just read his posts on Romans or Ephesians to understand how deep was his affection for the Word and obedience to it.
not doubt that his reading of the Puritans had a profound influence on him. The Puritans have often been caricatured, but Lloyd-Jones actually read them. Read the entire Christian Directory Richard Baxter and the many volumes of John Owen. From their point of view, the Puritans differed from other streams organized in several important points.
First, accentuated the spiritual nature of worship on the forms and outer rituals. Second, emphasizing the gathered body of Christ over the individual, thus making the church discipline necessary and healthy for the cause of Christ. Finally, they believed in the direct application of the Word for the soul of each person. The spirit of Puritanism, Lloyd-Jones believed, could be traced to William Tyndale to John Owen and Charles Spurgeon. It was this spirit of the centrality of the Word of God that led to the new preacher in Wales.
As his sermons were known, the presence of Lloyd-Jones was more and more requested. Many other preachers began to find in him a model of what should be the ministry of the pulpit. He went to preach to Canada and America and was often invited to speak at several meetings in Britain.
was in the cold and foggy night of November 28, 1935 Lloyd-Jones preached to a gathering at the Albert Hall in London. During his speech, "the Doctor" explained the biblical problems he saw in many of the most common forms of evangelism and church growth. He said: "Can many of the methods of evangelism that were introduced some forty or fifty years really justified by the Word of God? When I read about the work of the great evangelists in the Bible, I see that they were not primarily concerned with the results, they were busy proclaiming the word of truth. They stopped him growth They were primarily concerned that people were put face to face with the truth itself. " Arrival at Westminster

One of the listeners that night was a 72 year old man, G. Campbell Morgan, pastor of Westminster Chapel, perhaps the most famous preacher of the time. It is said that the old pastor told Lloyd-Jones: "No one but you could have taken on such a night!". After hearing Lloyd-Jones, Campbell Morgan wanted him as his colleague and successor in 1938. But it was not easy, because he handled other options as Attractions like that. In the end, prevailed called the Chapel of Westminster, and Lloyd-Jones family with their daughters, Elizabeth and Anne, settled permanently in London in April 1939.
The association of Morgan and Lloyd-Jones was a worthy example of how Christians can work together, even if they differ in minor respects. G. Campbell Morgan was an Arminian, and a statement of the Bible, though famous, did not address the great doctrines of the Reformation. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, however, was in the tradition of Spurgeon, Whitefield, the Puritans and the Reformers. But both men respected each position and talents of the other, and their partnership, until Campbell Morgan died was peaceful and inspiring the work of Christ in London.
When the storm clouds of World War II and threatened, Lloyd-Jones assumed the full pastorate of Westminster Chapel.
During the war years, Londoners endured for months the endless night raids by German bombers. Because Westminster Chapel was situated very close to Buckingham Palace and other important government buildings, was in constant danger of being destroyed. The congregation was in a constant state of financial and emotional crisis. However, the services continued almost normally. In 1944, a flying bomb exploded on the Guards' Chapel, about few yards away, covering the preacher and the congregation of white powder. A member of the congregation opened its eyes after the bang, saw everyone covered in white and believed that it should be in heaven! Westminster
was also rapidly approaching its own internal crisis. Some of the "old guard" did not want a lot of the young Calvinist who had shared the pulpit with his revered Dr. Morgan. It is a testament to the power of the Word of God and the humble spirit of Lloyd-Jones that the church not only survived, but ultimately unsuccessful. After the war, the congregation grew rapidly. In 1947, the balconies were open from 1948 until 1968 when he retired, had an average of about 1,500 attendees on Sunday morning and 2,000 at night.
In early 1953, the Bible study on Friday night began in the main chapel. That's when Lloyd-Jones began his monumental speech on the book of Romans. Just as the work of Martin Luther on Romans and Galatians subsequently influenced the Puritans, this great work on Romans has influenced the current generation of believers. Just as he started, he would continue ministering to his people with the Word of God instead of his own personality.
In its approach to the work of the pulpit, Lloyd-Jones worked firmemente a través de un libro de la Biblia, tomando un versículo o parte de un versículo a la vez, mostrando lo que enseñaba, cómo eso se ajustaba a la enseñanza sobre el asunto en otra parte de la Biblia, cómo la enseñanza entera era pertinente a los problemas de nuestro propio día y cómo la posición cristiana contrastaba con las ideas actualmente en boga.
Él se ponía a sí mismo en un segundo plano, e intentaba mostrar a su congregación la mente y la Palabra de Dios, permitiendo que el mensaje de la Biblia hablara por sí mismo. Sus predicaciones explicativas apuntaron a permitir a Dios hablar tan directamente como era posible al hombre en el banco con el pleno peso de la autoridad divina. Other

Despite the hardships of war, Lloyd-Jones was involved in the founding of three major institutions. The first was the creation of a library large Evangelical Christian works, which soon exceeded 20,000 volumes. So a new generation of believers came to the writings of Bunyan, Baxter, Owens and others.
The second institution that Lloyd-Jones helped create was the Westminster Fellowship. The book The Puritans, is a compilation of the annual messages of Lloyd-Jones to this group.
And third, was to support the Inter-University Fellowship (IVF), under whose auspices was held every December the Puritan Conference. There was a strong feeling for the need to return to the theological foundations of the Protestant tradition, the period when a hundred years after the Reformation, its theological implications had worked. Were read and discussed documents and Lloyd-Jones conducted the meetings with skill and authority. The publisher
Banner of Truth and Evangelical Magazine magazine born, with the help and encouragement from Martyn Lloyd-Jones, also strongly supported the work of the Evangelical Library. A pastoral level, he led monthly meetings of ministers fraternal since the early 40's, where pastors discussed all the problems facing within the church and its surroundings. Here its always vast experience, his profound wisdom and common sense helped many young ministers seemingly unique and insoluble difficulties.
In the summer of 1947 the doctor made another visit to the United States and was received warmly. At the request of Carl FH Henry, he spoke at Wheaton College. Were issued five messages he gave. They Lloyd-Jones shared his idea about the kind of preaching that the world really needs. Disputes

A strong character and strong leadership can not avoid controversy. Believing, as he did in the power of the Holy Spirit to convince and convert, he deeply opposed to the tradition that had grown from Moody's mass meetings with soft music and emotional appeals for conversion. He also opposed the arbitrary connections between names based on pragmatism rather than doctrine. Nothing will cause more problems for Lloyd-Jones that his firm belief in the need for adherence to certain fundamental doctrines.
end of the war, while many gathered to hear the doctor, other religious leaders were beginning to ignore. When a publication in 1946 collected the names of the "Pulpit Giants," including men and Weatherhead, the name of Martyn Lloyd-Jones was ignored.
In the early 1950's, much had changed in the spiritual landscape of England. In 1952, Arthur W. Pink died in relative obscurity on an island in Scotland. At that time few would have guessed that his writings would one day be published and read by believers around the world.
Around 1959, Lloyd-Jones noted that there was a resurgence of interest in the doctrines of grace and teachings of the Puritans in the church. However, those which occurred in this return were not his own generation. The real interest was among the younger ministers and believers. This new generation of leaders from the pulpit was the immutable truths the word of God in a way that no previous generation did. Some accused Lloyd-Jones of theological ignorance at best and at worst, of spiritual arrogance. The truth is that he often admonished his young learners to transform the discussion on Calvinism and Arminianism in a matter of controversy. In fact, he publicly expressed his belief that AW Pink should have had a longer-term spirit and conciliatory in his effort to return people to the truth.
The most serious controversy came in their relations with the Church of England. Martyn Lloyd-Jones was a firm believer in evangelical unity. He did not believe that the sectarian barriers should separate those who had a true faith in common. But when the liberal ecumenical movement became more and more concessions to the currents of worldly opinion, he supported the exodus from those names.
One of the great passions of Martyn Lloyd-Jones was the return to the combination of the doctrine of the Calvinists and the enthusiasm of the Methodists. In the 60's, he was eager for the emphasis on sound doctrine recently recovered does not become an arid doctrinal hardness. To neutralize this threat, he began to emphasize the importance of experience. He talked a lot about the need for experimental knowledge the Holy Spirit, full of conviction by the Spirit, and the truth that God deals immediately and directly with their children - often illustrating these things with the history of the church.
Unlike much of the teaching that would arise during the Charismatic Renewal of the 60's, Lloyd-Jones emphasized several features of true revival. First, he proclaimed that God is sovereign and there is therefore no formula for revival. God moves in different ways at different times. Secondly, he insisted that the church needed a revival, not more people entered the church, but that God would return to His place just in the lives and thoughts of people.
As the problem of unity of the church, his ideas on what is now known as 'Christian psychology' proved to be profound and prophetic. He was not at all impressed with the marriage of biblical preaching and secular psychology.
A collection of sermons on the subject in "Spiritual Depression: Causes and Cures', first published in 1965. The work points to the sufficiency of Christ in the believer's life and concludes with these words: "I do the best I can, but he controls the supply and power, He gives. He is the heavenly physician and He knows every variation in my condition. He sees my complexion. He feels my pulse. He knows ... everything. 'So,' says Paul, 'and therefore I can do everything through him who I was constantly being infused strength' ... He knows us better than we know ourselves, and our need, so will our supply. "
In the early 60's, the doctor began a series on the Gospel of John. His intention in them was not a verse by verse exposition as usual, but a search of the essential meaning of certainty and fullness of the Holy Spirit.
early 1968 at its 68 th year, Lloyd-Jones had major surgery and, although fully recovered, he decided that after 30 years in Westminster was time to retire as a minister.
His ministry had been blessed by God. There had been a steady stream of conversions, many remarkable and, above all, a wide variety of people from all walks of life had been taught the breadth and depth of Christian doctrine. At the Chapel were soldiers from the nearby Wellington Barracks headquarters, workers in hotels and restaurants in the West, nurses in large hospitals, actors and actresses from west-end theaters, major and minor civil servants of Whitehall, and unemployed chronically from the Salvation Army hostel.
The chapel was always full of students, especially foreigners, among whom was the now President Moi of Kenya. China attended church in the morning and many Plymouth Brethren in the afternoon. When the Exclusive Brethren were divided, many who lived in London came to Westminster Chapel. And there, of course, many professionals, teachers, lawyers, accountants, and perhaps more than some of those who had some mental deficiency.
People from all walks came to him later in the sacristy, where he would spend hours listening patiently and wisely advising. One of them has written: 'I have a lovely memory of going to him in a deep personal need, still very afraid of his formidable public manner. His gentleness and goodness attractive, combined with a simple and straight advice, won my heart. His brilliance as a preacher's brain and make him worthy of respect and admiration that other more gentle side, which met in private, makes you love him. "
In 1977 he talked about the difference in the method of Paul to help Christians and what was popularized under the name of counseling. His conviction was that much of what was really going spiritual and psychological. Lloyd-Jones saw the pulpit as the real focus 'Christian counseling. " That does not mean he was uninterested in their people and their problems. Nothing could be further from that. He occupied many hours of personal advice and biblical direction. Activities

end the 12 years after his retirement he continued with the Conference of Westminster and devoted much time to give advice to other ministers, answering letters and talking endlessly on the phone. Free from the rigid routine of Sundays at Westminster, he was then able to engage in external commitments which he had taken as a minister, mostly occupying the weekends at small and remote causes he loved to animate. He traveled back to Europe and the United States, but declined further and repeated invitations to other countries.
Lloyd-Jones had a very happy home every Christmas he was open to church members who had no other place to go. In his retirement he used to encourage their grandchildren to an argument. They were like young pups going for an old lion, venturing where no one else would dare, turned back by a grunt, but then jump back.
In 1979, the disease returned, and had to cancel all his engagements. He still longed to preach again. He had seen many men go after they had have stopped. In the spring of 1980 could start again, but a visit to the Hospital in May revealed that his illness demanded a harsher treatment that would prevent him from preaching. Between the grueling sessions at the hospital, he faced with courage and dignity, continued to work on his manuscripts and giving advice to ministers, but at Christmas he was too weak for this. In the end, however, was able to spend time with his biographer (his former assistant, Ian Murray).
the end of February 1981, with great peace and confident hope, he believed that his earthly work was done. He told his immediate family: 'Do not pray for healing, do not try to detain the glory. "
On March 1, the Lord's Day, he went to the glory of which had so often preached to meet the Saviour whom he had so faithfully proclaimed.

How To Insulate A Wood Ceiling

God's wrath and anger of the Lamb, Emilio Esteban

BLOG ARTICLE

SEMBRANDOENLOSCORAZONES.BLOGSPOT.COM

Today and in a society characterized by pacifism, NGOs and the new tolerance, many consider the Old Testament God, Jehovah, God as a genocidal, fierce and righteous (citing passages like Num.31, imprecatory psalms, etc.), a completely different God the God of the New Testament: An Jesus Gentle, kind and tolerant. But Have not heard Wrath of the Lamb? (Ap.6: 16)

voluntarily make a terrible dichotomy in the character of God, although God is "Father of lights where there is no change, neither shadow of turning" (Stg.1: 17b) and Jesus Christ "is the same yesterday and today and forever" (Heb.13: 8) God is eternally the same in all its attributes: love, holiness, etc ...., and of course justice.

There is also now a growing number of "believers" who, unfortunately, trying to mold his hermeneutical feel allegorizing today's society more and more the word of God, especially in passages that might seem difficult, incoherent or inappropriate to a loving and condescending. Some of these words "offend them" and they are "stumbling" (Jn.6 :60-61)

But ... Do not they know that God is a holy warrior, man of war? (Ex.15: 3)


The truth is that God is a warrior, and the biblical message is anything but a pacifist message. He said to Israel and to Pharaoh and his people as a powerful warrior who frees from slavery to his people and "thrown into the sea horse and rider", his enemies (Ex.15 :1-3) but also as a God whose ways are right and true (Ap.15: 3) and a "righteous judge" who is angry with the wicked every day (Sal.7: 11) and that does justice. The Israelites were aware of this fact: The Almighty God has done, he let us go free, he has done justice-this is what symbolizes the song of Moses, an archetype that speaks to us again and again to the release of a powerful God and just judging harshly and fight against their enemies.

What about Jesus? I just wanted to stop the habits of Lamb (Grace) and stripped of the Lion: The law and justice. However

God's Word also shows us the Lamb as a Lion, a righteous judge who judges all nations and destroy their enemies by putting them a footstool for your feet (Heb.10 :12-13) speaks of "The wrath of the Lamb, a Lamb judging their enemies angrily (Ap.6: 16; 11:18), a Lamb grazing "his people, leading to war against the wicked and defeat (Ap.7: 17, 19:11-18), a Lamb, the only one able to open the scroll and its seals (Ap.5: 2, 6 : 1) If, brethren, Christ is a Prince of Peace who sings songs of war, is one who by the mouth of the psalmist calls for the destruction of their enemies (Sal.69 :22-28 109:6-20)

" What authority have we to judge? Perhaps we are we God? Is He not sovereign? He Does not their purposes? Judge Not Fair?


Completely different from the wrath of man, the wrath of God is absent from all fancy and must be understood as a natural expression of his divine nature, which is holy and just and will oppose and rebel against all righteousness and wickedness (Ro.1: 18). The righteous indignation of God is not without love and compassion and often manifests itself as an expression of his mercy.

The Wrath of God answers, therefore, the demands of his holiness. God is patient and merciful, but has a "Cup" (symbol of trial). He is Holy but not forever tolerate sin. I hate therefore could not in any way away the cup of his own Son (Mr.14: 36), so we could be reconciled to a Holy God. Yes, he has to try and shed the fierceness of his anger and has a cup that the wickedness of the nations fills every day.

Anger and God's judgments are not inconsistent with his love and mercy. His love is intrinsically linked to justice, inextricably tied to the Lion Lamb. This is the reality of the wrath of the Lamb.




Therefore:

<<"Ahora pues, oh reyes, sed prudentes; Admitid amonestación, jueces de la tierra. Servid al Señor con temor, y alegraos con temblor.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you perish in the way: for he kindled his wrath.


Blessed are all who trust in him. ">> (Psalm II: 10-12)
