PRIZNAVANJE KRISTA.... ŽIVO KRŠĆANSTVO....

Tko se ubraja u Kristovu crkvu, taj Ga mora i priznati pred svijetom, ako se to od njega zahtijeva. On Krista ne smije zanijekati, on se mora zalagati za Njega i Njegovo učenje, te on i sam mora živjeti po Njegovom učenju, mora vjerovati u čin spasenja i putem života u nesebičnoj Ljubavi prema bližnjemu dokazati svoju pripadnost Njemu, i tek tada može biti zvan pravim Kršćaninom, tek tada je on u živom Kršćanstvu, koje se ne sastoji od pripadnosti nekoj Kršćanskoj crkvi, nego od pravog sljedbeništva Isusa. A istinski pripadnici Njegove crkve od strane svijeta biti će užasno tretirani, progoniti će ih se i prijetiti im kako bi otpali od Kristove crkve.

A onda moraju izdržati spram svijeta, onda se jasno moraju izjasniti za Njega, čak i kad su u opasnosti da izgube život svoga tijela. Smrt za Isusa Krista dušu će probuditi u život za vječno. No tko pravi ustupke svijetu, tko nema hrabrosti pružiti otpor, taj je doduše zbrinuo svoj zemaljski život, ali je prodao svoju dušu, a što mu nudi svijet, za vječnost je bezvrijedno. I radi toga bi čovjeku izbor trebao biti lak s obzirom na skori Kraj koji će donijeti razaranje sve materije; i tad će onaj čovjek koji živi u i za Krista predati sve....

Njega prijetnje svijeta neće plašiti ili pokretati na donošenje krive odluke s obzirom na Boga, on će biti hrabar i odvažan spram okrivljavanja svijeta, a tad će se i ispuniti Isusovo obećanje: “Tko Me prizna pred svijetom, njega ću Ja priznati pred Mojim Ocem....” Čovjek će u skladu s Njegovim obećanjem zadobiti naklonost Vječne Ljubavi. Tad će On Sam doći ljudima i donijeti im Evanđelje, On će se nastaniti u srcima Njegovih, i oni će moći primiti veliku plaću.... Sam Bog biti će u čovjeku i opskrbiti će ga najbogatijim znanjem, On će u Riječi biti kod njega do Kraja....

AMEN

Confessing christ.... living christianity....

Anyone who counts himself a member of Christ's church must also confess Him before the world if this is demanded of him. He must not deny Christ, he must stand up for Him and His teaching, and he himself must live according to His teaching, he must believe in the act of salvation and prove his affiliation to Him through a life of unselfish neighbourly love, and only then can he be called a true Christian, only then will he stand in living Christianity, which does not consist of belonging to a Christian church but in the right following of Jesus. And the true followers of His church will be severely attacked by the world, they will be persecuted and threatened into apostasy from the church of Christ. And then they will have to stand firm in the face of the world, then they will have to openly profess Him, even if they have to fear losing their physical life in the process. A death for Jesus Christ will awaken the soul to life for eternity. But anyone who makes concessions to the world, who does not have the courage to resist it, certainly provides for his earthly life but he sells his soul, and what the world offers him is worthless for eternity. And therefore the choice should be easy for the human being in view of the approaching end, which will bring a destruction of all matter; and then the human being will surrender everything who lives in and for Christ.... No threat of the world will frighten him or move him to make a wrong decision before God, he will be courageous and brave in the face of all accusations of the world, and then Jesus' promise will also come true: "Whoever confesses Me before the world, him will I also confess before My father...." Man will gain the affection of eternal love according to His promise. Then He Himself will come to people and bring them the gospel, He will take abode in the hearts of His own and they will be allowed to receive the greatest reward.... God Himself will be in the human being and provide him with the richest knowledge, He will be with him in the word until the end....

Amen
