바울의 마지막 문안 인사 (11)

이 성탄 계절에 사도 바울은 두기로를 특별히 골로새 교회 성도들에게 보냈다(골4:8)하는 말씀을 묵상할 때 하나님 아버지께서 우리를 "이처럼 사랑하사 독생자를 주셨"다(gave)(요3:16)는 말씀과 더불어 "자기 아들을 아끼지 아니하시고 우리 모든 사람을 위해 내주"셨다(gave up)(롬8:32)는 말씀과 "그는 우리를 위하여 자신을 버리"셨다(gave Himself up)(엡5:2)는 말씀을 연관해서 묵상하게 되었습니다. 그리하였을 때 예수님께서 십자가상에서 "엘리 엘리 라마 사박다니"("나의 하나님, 나의 하나님, 어찌하여 나를 버리셨나이까 하는 뜻")(마27:46)라는 말씀도 생각났습니다. 사랑하시고 기뻐하시는 아들 예수님을 십자가에 버리시기까지 우리를 이처럼 사랑하시는 하나님으로 인해 우리도 예수님과 복음을 위하여 우리 목숨을 잃을 수 있길 기원합니다(막8:35).   https://youtu.be/amBwOJJrKxs?si=B6DoBllFE_Il7U-p

If we continue to receive warnings from the true pastors sent

If we continue to receive warnings from the true pastors sent by God

but do not listen to God's words, we will be detested by all people.

Additionally, we will be cast out from God's presence,

becoming objects of curse, ridicule, and scorn wherever we go

(Ref.: Jeremiah 29:18-19; Jonah 2:4).



If we turn away from the commandments God has given us ...

 

If we turn away from the commandments God has given us

and do not obey Him and do not act according to His word,

but instead follow the wicked stubbornness of our hearts

and idolize wealth and serve it,

God will bring disaster upon us

(Ref.: Jeremiah 9:13-14).

  

 

If we turn away from God

and idolize wealth, pursue money and serve it ...

 

If we turn away from God and idolize wealth, pursue money and serve it,

forsake God, do not keep God's commandments, and sin against God,

God will take away our joy and peace and withdraw His love and mercy

(Ref.: Jeremiah 16:5, 9-11).

  

 

If we do not listen to God's words ...

 

If we do not listen to God's words,

God will make even the most beautiful place a desolate place

(Ref.: Jeremiah 22:5-6).



If we have rejected the word of God, we have no wisdom.

 

If we have rejected the word of God, we have no wisdom.

Therefore we cannot say, ‘We have wisdom and the word of God.’

Therefore we do not know what God requires of us.

We will be put to shame, embarrassed, and trapped.

All this is because the lying tongues of false pastors have made the word of God a lie

(Ref.: Jeremiah 8:7-9).
