Apat na Katotohanan Tungkol sa Diyos
Katulad ng mga physical laws, at gaya ng gravity na namamahala sa ating mundo, mayroon din mga kautusan o batas ang Bibliya na magpapakita sa atin kung paano tayo magkakaroon ng relasyon sa Diyos.
Mahal ka ng Diyos at may alay Siyang kahanga-hangang plano para sa Iyo
Ang Pag-ibig ng Diyos –
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Paano ipinakita ng Diyos ang pagmamahal niya sa atin?
Ang Plano ng Diyos –
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Ano ang ipinarito ni Jesus?
Makasalanan ang Tao at nahiwalay tayo sa Diyos. Dahil dito, hindi natin malalaman, o mararanasan ang pag-ibig ng Diyos at ang plano Niya para sa ating buhay.
Tayo ay Makasalanan –
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Ano sa palagay mo ang kasalanan?
Tayo ay Nahiwalay –
Romans 6:23 (NIV)
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 (NIV)
He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might
Paano at bakit tayo nahiwalay sa Diyos?
Ano ang mga bagay na sinusubukan nating gawin para punan ang puwang o space sa pagitan natin at ng Diyos? Magbigay ng halimbawa.
Si Jesus lang ang tanging kasagutan sa ating mga kasalanan. Sa pamamagitan Niya maaari nating malaman at maranasan ang pag-ibig ng Diyos at ang plano Niya para sa ating buhay.
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Ano ang ginawa ni Jesus para sa atin?
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
Anong nangyari pagkatapos mamatay ni Jesus?
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Paano natin makakasama ang Ama na nasa langit?
Kailangan nating tanggapin is Jesus bilang ating Tagapagligtas at Panginoon.
Upang sa gayon ay maaari na nating malaman at maranasan ang pag-ibig ng Diyos at ang plano Niya para sa buhay natin.

Application
Kailangan nating tanggapin si Jesus
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—
Matatanggap natin si Jesus sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—
not by works, so that no one can boast.
Kapag tinanggap na natin si Jesus, makararanas na tayo ng bagong kapanganakan.
Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council.
He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”
Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again. ”
“How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”
Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’
The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
Ang mga desisyon na ito ay mga personal na desisyon.
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
Kung hindi mo pa tinatanggap si Jesus sa iyong buhay, nais mo bang tanggapin si Jesus ngayon?
Prayer Model
Panginoong Jesus salamat dahil mahal mo ako at namatay Ka upang bayaran ang parusa ng aking mga kasalanan. Patawarin mo ang lahat ng aking pagkakasala at manahan ka sa aking puso. Marami pong salamat, Jesus.
