As Escrituras dizem que Satanás anda ao derredor como um leão que ruge, procurando alguém que possa devorar. Ele nos quer sob escravidão; Cristo nos quer livres para viver em obediência. A desobediência é contagiosa, mas a obediência também o é. Quanto mais fazemos isto, mais se torna o padrão de nossas vidas.

Randy Alcorn invites you to read his new book Face to Face with Jesus: Seeing Him as He Really Is. 

كراعي شاب لكنيسةٍ، كنتُ أعظ، كما لا يزال آخرون يعظون أيضًا، بهذه الكلمات: "إن الله يدعونا إلى القداسة، لا إلى السعادة".  دا هذا كله روحيًّا للغاية، وقد أمكنني أيضًا الاستشهاد بعدد لا يُحصى من الكُتَّاب والوعّاظ الذين يتفقون معي. لكنني الآن على قناعة بأننا كنا جميعًا مخطئين تمامًا.

ينبغي ألا نخجل من التحدث عمَّا لم يخجل الله أن يخلقه. ولكن، يريدنا الله أن نتعامل مع الموضوع بما يتماشى مع مقاصده ومطالبه، وليس مقاصد العالم أو مطالبه. 

Imaginez: vous faites partie d'une équipe de la NASA se préparant à une mission de cinq ans sur Mars. Après une période de formation intensive, la date de lancement de la fusée tombe enfin. Tandis que la fusée décolle, l’un de vos collègues astronautes vous demande: «Que sais-tu de Mars?» Haussant les épaules, vous répondez: «Rien. Nous n'en avons jamais parlé. Je suppose que nous le découvrirons sur place.» Cette situation est impensable, n'est-ce pas?
